責備以色列人拜偶像

耶和華對我說: 「人子啊,你要面向以色列的山嶺說預言,斥責它們, 說,『以色列的山嶺啊,要聽主耶和華的話。祂對高山、丘陵、山澗、河谷說,我必親自讓刀劍臨到你們,我必毀滅你們的神廟, 使你們的祭壇荒廢,香壇破裂!我必在你們的偶像面前殺戮以色列人, 使他們橫屍在你們的偶像面前,骸骨散在祭壇的四周。 你們的城邑必淪為廢墟,神廟淪為荒場,祭壇荒廢,偶像被砸碎,香壇被搗毀,一切必化為烏有。 被殺的人必橫屍你們中間,你們就知道我是耶和華。

「『不過,我必為你們留下一些人,使他們脫離刀劍之災,四散到各國。 他們必在被擄的異地想起我怎樣為他們憂傷,因為他們背叛我,心中淫亂,眼中戀慕與偶像苟合。他們必因自己的一切邪惡行為而厭惡自己。 10 這樣,他們就知道我是耶和華,我說要降災禍給他們並非空話。』」

11 主耶和華說:「你要拍手頓足地呼喊,『唉,以色列人有禍了!』他們的一切邪惡行為必使他們倒在刀劍、饑荒和瘟疫之下。 12 遠處的必死於瘟疫,近處的必喪身刀下,其餘的必死於饑荒。我必把烈怒傾倒在他們身上。 13 他們必陳屍於祭壇周圍的偶像間,就是他們在各高崗上、山頂上、綠樹下和茂密的橡樹下燒香祭拜偶像的地方,那時他們必知道我是耶和華。 14 我必伸手攻擊他們,使他們居住的地方,從曠野到第伯拉他,變得極其荒涼。這樣,他們便知道我是耶和華。」

Doom for the Mountains of Israel

The word of the Lord came to me: “Son of man, set your face(A) against the mountains(B) of Israel; prophesy against them(C) and say: ‘You mountains of Israel, hear the word of the Sovereign Lord. This is what the Sovereign Lord says to the mountains and hills, to the ravines and valleys:(D) I am about to bring a sword against you, and I will destroy your high places.(E) Your altars will be demolished and your incense altars(F) will be smashed; and I will slay your people in front of your idols.(G) I will lay the dead bodies of the Israelites in front of their idols, and I will scatter your bones(H) around your altars.(I) Wherever you live,(J) the towns will be laid waste and the high places(K) demolished, so that your altars will be laid waste and devastated, your idols(L) smashed and ruined, your incense altars(M) broken down, and what you have made wiped out.(N) Your people will fall slain(O) among you, and you will know that I am the Lord.(P)

“‘But I will spare some, for some of you will escape(Q) the sword when you are scattered among the lands and nations.(R) Then in the nations where they have been carried captive, those who escape will remember(S) me—how I have been grieved(T) by their adulterous hearts, which have turned away from me, and by their eyes, which have lusted after their idols.(U) They will loathe themselves for the evil(V) they have done and for all their detestable practices.(W) 10 And they will know that I am the Lord;(X) I did not threaten in vain to bring this calamity on them.(Y)

11 “‘This is what the Sovereign Lord says: Strike your hands together and stamp your feet and cry out “Alas!” because of all the wicked and detestable practices of the people of Israel, for they will fall by the sword, famine and plague.(Z) 12 One who is far away will die of the plague, and one who is near will fall by the sword, and anyone who survives and is spared will die of famine. So will I pour out my wrath(AA) on them.(AB) 13 And they will know that I am the Lord, when their people lie slain among their idols(AC) around their altars, on every high hill and on all the mountaintops, under every spreading tree and every leafy oak(AD)—places where they offered fragrant incense to all their idols.(AE) 14 And I will stretch out my hand(AF) against them and make the land a desolate waste from the desert to Diblah[a]—wherever they live. Then they will know that I am the Lord.(AG)’”
