以西结书 24
Chinese Union Version Modern Punctuation (Simplified)
以积薪沸釜为喻
24 第九年十月初十日,耶和华的话又临到我说: 2 “人子啊,今日正是巴比伦王就近耶路撒冷的日子,你要将这日记下。 3 要向这悖逆之家设比喻说:‘主耶和华如此说:将锅放在火上,放好了,就倒水在其中。 4 将肉块,就是一切肥美的肉块,腿和肩都聚在其中,拿美好的骨头把锅装满。 5 取羊群中最好的,将柴堆在锅下,使锅开滚,好把骨头煮在其中。
示耶路撒冷必遭毁灭
6 ‘主耶和华如此说:祸哉,这流人血的城,就是长锈的锅!其中的锈未曾除掉,须要将肉块从其中一一取出来,不必为它拈阄。 7 城中所流的血倒在净光的磐石上,不倒在地上,用土掩盖。 8 这城中所流的血倒在净光的磐石上,不得掩盖,乃是出于我,为要发愤怒施行报应。 9 所以主耶和华如此说:祸哉,这流人血的城!我也必大堆火柴。 10 添上木柴,使火着旺,将肉煮烂,把汤熬浓,使骨头烤焦。 11 把锅倒空坐在炭火上,使锅烧热,使铜烧红,熔化其中的污秽,除净其上的锈。 12 这锅劳碌疲乏,所长的大锈仍未除掉,这锈就是用火也不能除掉。 13 在你污秽中有淫行。我洁净你,你却不洁净。你的污秽再不能洁净,直等我向你发的愤怒止息。 14 我耶和华说过的必定成就,必照话而行,必不返回,必不顾惜,也不后悔。人必照你的举动行为审判你。这是主耶和华说的。’”
谕以西结勿为妻死哀哭喻以色列人受苦不暇悲伤
15 耶和华的话又临到我说: 16 “人子啊,我要将你眼目所喜爱的忽然取去,你却不可悲哀哭泣,也不可流泪。 17 只可叹息,不可出声,不可办理丧事。头上仍勒裹头巾,脚上仍穿鞋,不可蒙着嘴唇,也不可吃吊丧的食物。” 18 于是我将这事早晨告诉百姓,晚上我的妻就死了。次日早晨我便遵命而行。
19 百姓问我说:“你这样行与我们有什么关系,你不告诉我们吗?” 20 我回答他们:“耶和华的话临到我说: 21 ‘你告诉以色列家,主耶和华如此说:我必使我的圣所,就是你们势力所夸耀、眼里所喜爱、心中所爱惜的被亵渎,并且你们所遗留的儿女必倒在刀下。 22 那时,你们必行我仆人所行的,不蒙着嘴唇,也不吃吊丧的食物。 23 你们仍要头上勒裹头巾,脚上穿鞋,不可悲哀哭泣。你们必因自己的罪孽相对叹息,渐渐消灭。 24 以西结必这样为你们做预兆,凡他所行的,你们也必照样行。那事来到,你们就知道我是主耶和华。
25 ‘人子啊,我除掉他们所倚靠、所欢喜的荣耀,并眼中所喜爱、心里所重看的儿女。 26 那日逃脱的人岂不来到你这里,使你耳闻这事吗? 27 你必向逃脱的人开口说话,不再哑口。你必这样为他们做预兆,他们就知道我是耶和华。’”

锈锅的比喻
24 第九年十月十日,耶和华对我说: 2 “人子啊,今天是巴比伦王围攻耶路撒冷的日子,你要记下这日子。 3 你要向叛逆的以色列人说比喻,告诉他们,主耶和华这样说,
“‘把锅放在火上,
里面倒进水,
4 把羊腿、羊肩等上好的肉块放进锅里,
让锅里盛满精选的骨头。
5 要从羊群中选一头上好的羊,
把柴堆在锅下,
烧开锅煮里面的骨头。’”
6 主耶和华说:“这像锈锅一样充满血腥的城有祸了!要把肉从这锈迹斑斑的锅中一块块地取出来。 7 这城沾满血腥,任凭受害者的血流在光秃秃的磐石上,而不是流在地上用土掩盖。 8 我任凭这城把受害者的血洒在磐石上,不加掩盖,好激起我的烈怒,使她受报应。 9 所以主耶和华说,‘血腥的城啊,你有祸了!我要预备大堆木柴, 10 添在火上,燃起旺火,把肉煮烂,加入香料,烧焦骨头。 11 然后,把倒空的锅放在炭火上烧热,把铜烧红,好熔化它的杂质,除净锈垢, 12 却徒劳无功,因为锈垢太厚,就是用火也不能清除。 13 耶路撒冷啊,淫荡使你污秽不堪,我要洁净你,你却不愿被洁净。所以,除非我向你倾尽一切愤怒,否则你的污秽将不能清除。 14 我耶和华言出必行,决不宽容,也不留情,我必照你的所作所为来审判你。’这是主耶和华说的。”
15 耶和华对我说: 16 “人子啊,我要突然夺去你心爱的人,你不可悲伤,也不可流泪哭泣。 17 你要默然哀叹,不可为死人办丧事,仍要缠着头巾,穿着鞋,不可蒙着脸,也不可吃丧家吃的饭。” 18 早晨我把这事告诉百姓,晚上我的妻子便死了。次日早晨,我便遵照耶和华的吩咐行。
19 百姓问我:“你可以告诉我们,你这样做跟我们有什么关系吗?” 20 我告诉他们:“耶和华对我说, 21 ‘你告诉以色列人,我要使我的圣所,就是你们引以为傲、眼中所爱、心里所慕的受到亵渎。你们留下的儿女必死于刀下。 22 那时,你们将像我的仆人一样不蒙脸,不吃丧家吃的饭。 23 你们仍将裹着头巾,穿着鞋,不哭泣,也不悲伤。你们必因自己的罪恶而默然叹息,逐渐灭亡。 24 以西结做的事都是你们的预兆,你们也将做他做的。当这事发生时,你们就知道我是主耶和华了。’
25 “人子啊,有一天我要夺去他们所喜悦、所夸耀、眼中所爱、心里所慕的堡垒,也要夺去他们的儿女。 26 那日,幸存的人必来告诉你这个消息。 27 那时,你必开口向那人说话,不再沉默。你必成为他们的预兆,他们就知道我是耶和华。”

鏽鍋的比喻
24 第九年十月十日,耶和華對我說: 2 「人子啊,今天是巴比倫王圍攻耶路撒冷的日子,你要記下這日子。 3 你要向叛逆的以色列人說比喻,告訴他們,主耶和華這樣說,
『把鍋放在火上,
裡面倒進水,
4 把羊腿、羊肩等上好的肉塊放進鍋裡,
讓鍋裡盛滿精選的骨頭。
5 要從羊群中選一頭上好的羊,
把柴堆在鍋下,
燒開鍋煮裡面的骨頭。』」
6 主耶和華說:「這像鏽鍋一樣充滿血腥的城有禍了!要把肉從這鏽跡斑斑的鍋中一塊塊地取出來。 7 這城沾滿血腥,任憑受害者的血流在光禿禿的磐石上,而不是流在地上用土掩蓋。 8 我任憑這城把受害者的血灑在磐石上,不加掩蓋,好激起我的烈怒,使她受報應。 9 所以主耶和華說,『血腥的城啊,你有禍了!我要預備大堆木柴, 10 添在火上,燃起旺火,把肉煮爛,加入香料,燒焦骨頭。 11 然後,把倒空的鍋放在炭火上燒熱,把銅燒紅,好熔化它的雜質,除淨鏽垢, 12 卻徒勞無功,因為鏽垢太厚,就是用火也不能清除。 13 耶路撒冷啊,淫蕩使你污穢不堪,我要潔淨你,你卻不願被潔淨。所以,除非我向你傾盡一切憤怒,否則你的污穢將不能清除。 14 我耶和華言出必行,決不寬容,也不留情,我必照你的所作所為來審判你。』這是主耶和華說的。」
15 耶和華對我說: 16 「人子啊,我要突然奪去你心愛的人,你不可悲傷,也不可流淚哭泣。 17 你要默然哀歎,不可為死人辦喪事,仍要纏著頭巾,穿著鞋,不可蒙著臉,也不可吃喪家吃的飯。」 18 早晨我把這事告訴百姓,晚上我的妻子便死了。次日早晨,我便遵照耶和華的吩咐行。
19 百姓問我:「你可以告訴我們,你這樣做跟我們有什麼關係嗎?」 20 我告訴他們:「耶和華對我說, 21 『你告訴以色列人,我要使我的聖所,就是你們引以為傲、眼中所愛、心裡所慕的受到褻瀆。你們留下的兒女必死於刀下。 22 那時,你們將像我的僕人一樣不蒙臉,不吃喪家吃的飯。 23 你們仍將裹著頭巾,穿著鞋,不哭泣,也不悲傷。你們必因自己的罪惡而默然歎息,逐漸滅亡。 24 以西結做的事都是你們的預兆,你們也將做他做的。當這事發生時,你們就知道我是主耶和華了。』
25 「人子啊,有一天我要奪去他們所喜悅、所誇耀、眼中所愛、心裡所慕的堡壘,也要奪去他們的兒女。 26 那日,倖存的人必來告訴你這個消息。 27 那時,你必開口向那人說話,不再沉默。你必成為他們的預兆,他們就知道我是耶和華。」
Ezekiel 24
New International Version
Jerusalem as a Cooking Pot
24 In the ninth year, in the tenth month on the tenth day, the word of the Lord came to me:(A) 2 “Son of man, record(B) this date, this very date, because the king of Babylon has laid siege to Jerusalem this very day.(C) 3 Tell this rebellious people(D) a parable(E) and say to them: ‘This is what the Sovereign Lord says:
“‘Put on the cooking pot;(F) put it on
and pour water into it.
4 Put into it the pieces of meat,
all the choice pieces—the leg and the shoulder.
Fill it with the best of these bones;(G)
5 take the pick of the flock.(H)
Pile wood beneath it for the bones;
bring it to a boil
and cook the bones in it.(I)
6 “‘For this is what the Sovereign Lord says:
“‘Woe(J) to the city of bloodshed,(K)
to the pot now encrusted,
whose deposit will not go away!
Take the meat out piece by piece
in whatever order(L) it comes.(M)
7 “‘For the blood she shed is in her midst:
She poured it on the bare rock;
she did not pour it on the ground,
where the dust would cover it.(N)
8 To stir up wrath and take revenge
I put her blood on the bare rock,
so that it would not be covered.
9 “‘Therefore this is what the Sovereign Lord says:
“‘Woe to the city of bloodshed!
I, too, will pile the wood high.
10 So heap on the wood
and kindle the fire.
Cook the meat well,
mixing in the spices;
and let the bones be charred.
11 Then set the empty pot on the coals
till it becomes hot and its copper glows,
so that its impurities may be melted
and its deposit burned away.(O)
12 It has frustrated all efforts;
its heavy deposit has not been removed,
not even by fire.
13 “‘Now your impurity is lewdness. Because I tried to cleanse you but you would not be cleansed(P) from your impurity, you will not be clean again until my wrath against you has subsided.(Q)
14 “‘I the Lord have spoken.(R) The time has come for me to act.(S) I will not hold back; I will not have pity,(T) nor will I relent.(U) You will be judged according to your conduct and your actions,(V) declares the Sovereign Lord.(W)’”
Ezekiel’s Wife Dies
15 The word of the Lord came to me: 16 “Son of man, with one blow(X) I am about to take away from you the delight of your eyes.(Y) Yet do not lament or weep or shed any tears.(Z) 17 Groan quietly;(AA) do not mourn for the dead. Keep your turban(AB) fastened and your sandals(AC) on your feet; do not cover your mustache and beard(AD) or eat the customary food of mourners.(AE)”
18 So I spoke to the people in the morning, and in the evening my wife died. The next morning I did as I had been commanded.(AF)
19 Then the people asked me, “Won’t you tell us what these things have to do with us?(AG) Why are you acting like this?”
20 So I said to them, “The word of the Lord came to me: 21 Say to the people of Israel, ‘This is what the Sovereign Lord says: I am about to desecrate my sanctuary(AH)—the stronghold in which you take pride,(AI) the delight of your eyes,(AJ) the object of your affection. The sons and daughters(AK) you left behind will fall by the sword.(AL) 22 And you will do as I have done. You will not cover your mustache and beard(AM) or eat the customary food of mourners.(AN) 23 You will keep your turbans(AO) on your heads and your sandals(AP) on your feet. You will not mourn(AQ) or weep but will waste away(AR) because of[a] your sins and groan among yourselves.(AS) 24 Ezekiel(AT) will be a sign(AU) to you; you will do just as he has done. When this happens, you will know that I am the Sovereign Lord.’
25 “And you, son of man, on the day I take away their stronghold, their joy and glory, the delight of their eyes,(AV) their heart’s desire,(AW) and their sons and daughters(AX) as well— 26 on that day a fugitive will come to tell you(AY) the news. 27 At that time your mouth will be opened; you will speak with him and will no longer be silent.(AZ) So you will be a sign to them, and they will know that I am the Lord.(BA)”
