以西结书 9
Chinese New Version (Simplified)
大施屠杀
9 我听见他大声呼叫说：“惩罚这城的啊！你们要近前来，各人手里拿着灭命的武器。” 2 忽然，有六个人从朝北的上门那边走来，各人手里拿着杀人的武器；他们中间有一个人身穿细麻布衣服，腰间带着墨盒子；他们进来，站在铜祭坛旁边。
3 以色列 神的荣耀本来是在基路伯上面的，现在从那里移到殿的门槛；耶和华把那身穿细麻布衣服，腰间带着墨盒子的人召来， 4 对他说：“你要走遍耶路撒冷全城，那些因城中所行的一切可憎的事而叹息悲哀的人，你要在他们的额上画个记号。” 5 我又听见他对其余的人说：“你们要跟随他走遍那城，进行杀戮；你们的眼不要顾惜，你们也不要怜恤。 6 你们要从我的圣所开始，把老年人、少年人、少女、孩童和妇女都杀尽灭绝，只是那些额上有记号的人，你们都不可伤害。”于是他们从殿前那些长老开始杀戮。 7 他又对他们说：“你们要玷污这殿，使这些院子充满被杀的人；你们出去吧！”于是他们出去，在城中进行杀戮。
以西结的祷告不蒙垂听
8 他们杀戮的时候，只留下我一个人，我就脸伏在地，呼叫说：“哎，主耶和华啊！难道你要向耶路撒冷倾倒你的烈怒，使所有以色列余剩的人都灭绝么？”
9 他对我说：“以色列家和犹大家罪大恶极，地上充满血腥，城内充满不义，因为他们说：‘耶和华已经离开这地，他看不见我们了！’ 10 因此，我的眼必不顾惜，我也必不怜恤；我要把他们所行的报应在他们的头上。”
11 那身穿细麻布衣服，腰间带着墨盒子的人回报这事，说：“我已经照着你所吩咐我的行了。”

The Vision of Yahweh’s Wrath
9 Then He cried out in my hearing with a loud (A)voice saying, “Draw near, [a]O executioners of the city, each with his destroying weapon in his hand.” 2 And behold, six men were coming from the direction of the upper gate which faces north, each with his shattering weapon in his hand; and among them was (B)a certain man clothed in linen with a [b]scribe’s case at his loins. And they went in and stood beside the bronze altar.
3 Then the (C)glory of the God of Israel went up from the cherub on which it had been, to the threshold of the house of Yahweh. And He called to the man clothed in linen at whose loins was the [c]scribe’s case. 4 Yahweh said to him, “Go through the midst of the city, even through the midst of Jerusalem, and put a (D)mark on the foreheads of the men who (E)sigh and groan over all the abominations which are being done in its midst.” 5 But to the others He said in my hearing, “Go through the city after him and strike; do not let your eye have pity and do not spare. 6 (F)Kill to utter destruction old men, chosen men, virgins, little ones, and women, but do not (G)touch any man on whom is the mark; and you shall (H)start from My sanctuary.” So they started with the [d]elders who were before the house. 7 And He said to them, “(I)Defile the house and fill the courts with the slain. Go out!” Thus they went out and struck down the people in the city. 8 Now it happened as they were striking the people and I alone remained, that I (J)fell on my face and cried out and said, “(K)Alas, Lord Yahweh! Are You destroying the whole remnant of Israel [e]by pouring out Your wrath on Jerusalem?”
9 Then He said to me, “The iniquity of the house of Israel and Judah is very, very great, and the land is (L)filled with bloodshed, and the city is (M)full of perversion; for (N)they say, ‘Yahweh has forsaken the land, and Yahweh does not see!’ 10 But as for Me, (O)My eye will have no pity, nor will I spare, but (P)I will put their way upon their heads.”
11 Then behold, the man clothed in linen at whose loins was the scribe’s [f]case responded with a word, saying, “I have done just as You have commanded me.”

The Lord Orders the Destruction of the Temple in Jerusalem
9 Then I heard Yahweh call out with a loud voice. He said, “Come here, those who are going to punish this city. Each of you should bring your weapon with you.” 2 So six men came from the upper north gate. Each one brought a deadly weapon with him. Among them was a person dressed in linen who was carrying paper and pen. The men came in and stood by the bronze altar. 3 Then the glory of the Elohim of Israel went up from the angels,[a] where it had been, to the temple’s entrance. Yahweh called to the person dressed in linen who was carrying paper and pen.
4 Yahweh said to that person, “Go throughout the city of Jerusalem, and put a mark on the foreheads of those who sigh and groan about all the disgusting things that are being done in the city.”
5 Then he said to the others as I was listening, “Follow him throughout the city and kill. Don’t have any compassion, and don’t feel sorry. 6 Kill old men, young men, old women, young women, and children. But don’t come near anyone who has a mark on him. Start with my holy place.” So they started with the old men in front of the temple.
7 He said to them, “Dishonor the temple! Fill its courtyards with dead people, and then leave.” So they went out and killed the people in the city.
8 As they were killing people, I was left alone. So I immediately bowed down. I cried, “Adonay Yahweh, will you destroy everyone who is left in Israel while you pour out your anger on Jerusalem?”
9 He answered me, “The wickedness of the nations of Israel and Judah is terrible. The land is filled with murder, and the city is filled with wrongdoing. They think that Yahweh has abandoned the land and that Yahweh doesn’t see. 10 But I will not have compassion or feel sorry. I will do to them what they have done to others.”
11 Then the person dressed in linen who was carrying paper and pen reported, “I did everything you commanded.”
