Ezekiel 8

1 In the sixth year, on the fifth day of the sixth month, I was sitting in my house, and the elders of Judah were sitting before me; and there the hand of the Lord GOD fell upon me.

1 第六年六月五日，我正在家中与犹大的众长老同坐，主耶和华的手按在我身上。

2 Then I looked and saw a figure like that of a man. From His waist down His appearance was like fire, and from His waist up He was as bright as the gleam of amber.

2 我观看，只见有一位形状像人，祂的腰部以下像火，腰部以上像闪亮的金属。

3 He stretched out what looked like a hand and took me by the hair of my head. Then the Spirit lifted me up between earth and heaven and carried me in visions of God to Jerusalem, to the entrance of the north gate of the inner court, where the idol that provokes jealousy was seated.

3 祂好像伸出一只手，抓住我的头发。在异象中，耶和华的灵把我举到天地之间，将我带到耶路撒冷圣殿内院的北门，那里供奉着惹耶和华愤恨的神像。

4 And there I saw the glory of the God of Israel, like the vision I had seen in the plain.

4 我忽然看见那里有以色列上帝的荣耀，跟我在平原所见的一样。

5 “Son of man,” He said to me, “now lift up your eyes to the north.” So I lifted up my eyes to the north, and in the entrance north of the Altar Gate I saw this idol of jealousy.

5 祂对我说：“人子啊，你举目北望。”于是，我举目朝北一望，见在祭坛门北面的入口处有惹耶和华愤恨的神像。

6 “Son of man,” He said to me, “do you see what they are doing—the great abominations that the house of Israel is committing—to drive Me far from My sanctuary? Yet you will see even greater abominations.”

6 祂又对我说：“人子啊，你看见以色列人的所作所为了吗？他们在这里行那些极其可憎的事，以致我远离我的圣所。你会看到更可憎的事。”

7 Then He brought me to the entrance to the court, and I looked and saw a hole in the wall.

7 祂带我到院子的门口，我看见墙上有一个洞。

8 “Son of man,” He told me, “dig through the wall.” So I dug through the wall and discovered a doorway.

8 祂对我说：“人子啊，你挖这墙。”我挖开墙后，看见一道门。

9 Then He said to me, “Go in and see the wicked abominations they are committing here.”

9 祂对我说：“你进去看看他们在这里做的邪恶可憎的事吧。”

10 So I went in and looked, and engraved all around the wall was every kind of crawling creature and detestable beast, along with all the idols of the house of Israel.

10 我进去后，看见四周的墙上画满了各种爬虫、可憎的兽类和以色列人拜的所有偶像。

11 Before them stood seventy elders of the house of Israel, with Jaazaniah son of Shaphan standing among them. Each had a censer in his hand, and a fragrant cloud of incense was rising.

11 偶像前面站着以色列的七十个长老，沙番的儿子雅撒尼亚也在当中，他们每人手中都拿着香炉，烟雾缭绕。

12 “Son of man,” He said to me, “do you see what the elders of the house of Israel are doing in the darkness, each at the shrine of his own idol? For they are saying, ‘The LORD does not see us; the LORD has forsaken the land.’”

12 祂又对我说：“人子啊，你看见以色列的长老在自己藏偶像的房间里暗中所做的了吗？他们说，‘耶和华看不见我们，祂已经抛弃了这片土地。’”

13 Again, He told me, “You will see them committing even greater abominations.”

13 祂继续说：“你会看到他们做更可憎的事。”

14 Then He brought me to the entrance of the north gate of the house of the LORD, and I saw women sitting there, weeping for Tammuz.

14 祂带我来到耶和华殿的北门，看见一些妇女坐在那里为搭模斯神像哭泣。

15 “Son of man,” He said to me, “do you see this? Yet you will see even greater abominations than these.”

15 祂对我说：“人子啊，你看见了吗？你会看到更可憎的事。”

16 So He brought me to the inner court of the house of the LORD, and there at the entrance to the temple of the LORD, between the portico and the altar, were about twenty-five men with their backs to the temple of the LORD and their faces toward the east; and they were bowing to the east in worship of the sun.

16 祂带我来到耶和华殿的内院，在殿门口，走廊和祭坛中间约有二十五个人背向耶和华的殿，面向东方朝拜太阳。

17 “Son of man,” He said to me, “do you see this? Is it not enough for the house of Judah to commit the abominations they are practicing here, that they must also fill the land with violence and continually provoke Me to anger? Look, they are even putting the branch to their nose!

17 祂又对我说：“人子啊，你看见了吗？犹大人的这些可憎行径还算小事吗？他们到处行残暴之事，再三惹我发怒。看啊，他们手拿树枝举向鼻前。

18 Therefore I will respond with wrath. I will not look on them with pity, nor will I spare them. Although they shout loudly in My ears, I will not listen to them.”

18 因此，我必愤怒地对待他们，我必不顾惜他们，也不怜悯他们，即使他们大声向我呼求，我也不听。”
