Ezekiel 11

1 Then the Spirit lifted me up and brought me to the gate of the house of the LORD that faces east. And there at the entrance of the gate were twenty-five men. Among them I saw Jaazaniah son of Azzur and Pelatiah son of Benaiah, who were leaders of the people.

1 那时，耶和华的灵将我举起，带我到耶和华殿的东门，我见门口那里有二十五个人，当中有百姓的首领押朔的儿子雅撒尼亚和比拿雅的儿子毗拉提。

2 And the LORD said to me, “Son of man, these are the men who plot evil and give wicked counsel in this city.

2 耶和华对我说：“人子啊，这些人在这城里专给人出毒计，设恶谋。

3 They are saying, ‘Is not the time near to build houses? The city is the cooking pot, and we are the meat.’

3 他们说，‘建造房屋的时候还没有到。我们的城像铁锅一样坚固，我们像在锅里的肉一样得到保护。’

4 Therefore prophesy against them; prophesy, O son of man!”

4 人子啊，你要说预言，说预言斥责他们。”

5 And the Spirit of the LORD fell upon me and told me to declare that this is what the LORD says: “That is what you are thinking, O house of Israel; and I know the thoughts that arise in your minds.

5 耶和华的灵降在我身上，并吩咐我说：“耶和华这样说，‘以色列人啊，我知道你们口中在说什么，心里在想什么。

6 You have multiplied those you killed in this city and filled its streets with the dead.

6 你们在城中大肆屠杀，大街小巷遍地尸体。

7 Therefore this is what the Lord GOD says: The slain you have laid within this city are the meat, and the city is the pot; but I will remove you from it.

7 所以，主耶和华说，你们在城中杀死的人就是肉，这城就是锅，但我必把你们从锅中拉出来。

8 You fear the sword, so I will bring the sword against you, declares the Lord GOD.

8 你们惧怕刀剑，我必使刀剑临到你们。这是主耶和华说的。

9 I will bring you out of the city and deliver you into the hands of foreigners, and I will execute judgments against you.

9 我必把你们从城中赶出去，交给外族人。我必审判你们，

10 You will fall by the sword, and I will judge you even to the borders of Israel. Then you will know that I am the LORD.

10 使你们死于刀下。我要审判整个以色列，这样你们就知道我是耶和华。

11 The city will not be a pot for you, nor will you be the meat within it. I will judge you even to the borders of Israel.

11 这城必不是你们的锅，你们也必不是其中的肉，我必在以色列全境施行审判。

12 Then you will know that I am the LORD. For you have neither followed My statutes nor practiced My ordinances, but you have conformed to the ordinances of the nations around you.”

12 这样你们就知道我是耶和华。因为你们没有遵行我的律例，没有顺从我的典章，却效法你们四邻外族的规矩。’”

13 Now as I was prophesying, Pelatiah son of Benaiah died. Then I fell facedown and cried out in a loud voice, “Oh, Lord GOD, will You bring the remnant of Israel to a complete end?”

13 我正在说预言的时候，比拿雅的儿子毗拉提就死了。我便俯伏在地大喊：“唉，主耶和华啊，你要灭绝以色列的余民吗？”

14 Then the word of the LORD came to me, saying,

14 耶和华对我说：

15 “Son of man, your brothers—your relatives, your fellow exiles, and the whole house of Israel—are those of whom the people of Jerusalem have said, ‘They are far away from the LORD; this land has been given to us as a possession.’

15 “人子啊，留在耶路撒冷的居民会这样谈论你、你的亲人和一切被掳的以色列人，说，‘他们远离了耶和华，这地方已经给了我们。’

16 Therefore declare that this is what the Lord GOD says: ‘Although I sent them far away among the nations and scattered them among the countries, yet for a little while I have been a sanctuary for them in the countries to which they have gone.’

16 因此，你要说，‘主耶和华这样说，我虽然把以色列人赶到远方各国，分散在列邦，却要在他们所去的国家暂作他们的圣所。’

17 Therefore declare that this is what the Lord GOD says: ‘I will gather you from the peoples and assemble you from the countries to which you have been scattered, and I will give back to you the land of Israel.’

17 “你要说，‘主耶和华这样说，我必从各国召集你们，从你们被驱散到的列邦中聚集你们，将以色列的土地再赐给你们。’

18 When they return to it, they will remove all its detestable things and all its abominations.

18 他们回来后，必除掉此地一切丑恶可憎的事。

19 And I will give them singleness of heart and put a new spirit within them; I will remove their heart of stone and give them a heart of flesh,

19 我必赐给他们一颗专一的心，将新灵放在他们里面，除去他们的石心，赐给他们肉心，

20 so that they may follow My statutes, keep My ordinances, and practice them. Then they will be My people, and I will be their God.

20 使他们恪守我的律例，谨遵我的典章。他们要做我的子民，我要做他们的上帝。

21 But as for those whose hearts pursue detestable things and abominations, I will bring their conduct down upon their own heads, declares the Lord GOD.”

21 至于那些心里恋慕丑恶可憎之物的人，我必按他们所行的报应他们。这是主耶和华说的。”

22 Then the cherubim, with the wheels beside them, spread their wings, and the glory of the God of Israel was above them.

22 于是，基路伯天使展开翅膀，轮子跟在他们旁边，在他们上面有以色列上帝的荣耀。

23 And the glory of the LORD rose up from within the city and stood over the mountain east of the city.

23 耶和华的荣耀从城中升起，停在城东的山上。

24 And the Spirit lifted me up and carried me back to Chaldea, to the exiles in the vision given by the Spirit of God. After the vision had gone up from me,

24 上帝的灵将我举起，在祂所赐的异象中把我带到迦勒底被掳的人那里，我所见的异象从我面前上升消失了。

25 I told the exiles everything the LORD had shown me.

25 我把耶和华让我看到的一切都告诉了那些被掳的人。
