关于推罗的预言

23 关于推罗的默示:

他施的船只啊,要哀号!

因为推罗被毁灭了,再没有房屋,也不能再作港口,

这消息是他们从塞浦路斯地得来的。

沿海的居民,

就是靠航海致富的西顿商人哪!

要静默无言。

在大水之上,

西曷的谷物、尼罗河的庄稼,都是推罗的收益,

推罗成了列国的市场。

西顿啊,要惭愧!

因为大海说过,就是海上的保障说过:

“我没有受过产痛,也没有生产;

我没有养大过男孩,也没有抚养过童女。”

这消息传到埃及时,

埃及人就为推罗这消息非常伤痛。

你们要过到他施去;

沿海的居民哪,要哀号!

这就是你们欢乐的城吗?

它的起源溯自上古,

它的脚把其中的居民带到远方去寄居。

谁策划这事来攻击推罗呢?它本是赐人冠冕的城,

它的商人是王子,它的商贾是世上的尊贵人。

这是万军之耶和华所定的旨意,

要凌辱那些因荣美而有狂傲,

使地上所有的尊贵人被藐视。

10 他施的居民哪!要像尼罗河一般流遍你的地,

再没有限制了。

11 耶和华已经向海伸手,

使列国震动;

耶和华又发出一个关于迦南的吩咐,

就是要毁坏其中的保障。

12 他又说:“受压制的西顿居民哪,

你们不再有欢乐了!

起来,过到塞浦路斯去!就是在那里,你们也得不到安息。”

13 看哪!使推罗成为旷野,走兽居住之处的,是来自迦勒底地的人,而不是亚述人;他们要筑起攻城的高塔,拆毁推罗的城堡,使它成为废墟。

14 他施的船只啊,要哀号!

因为你们的保障已被毁灭了。

七十年后推罗再蒙眷顾

15 到那日,推罗必被忘记七十年,正如一个王朝的年日;七十年后,推罗必像妓女所唱之歌:

16 “你被遗忘的妓女啊!

拿起琴来,走遍全城吧。

你要巧弹多唱,

使人再想起你!”

17 七十年后,耶和华必眷顾推罗,推罗就恢复繁荣,可以与地上的万国交易。 18 它的货财和所得的利益要分别为圣归给耶和华,必不会积聚或储藏起来;因为它的货财必归给那些住在耶和华面前的人,使他们吃得饱足,穿得漂亮。

關於泰爾的預言

23 以下是關於泰爾的預言:

他施的船隻哀號吧!
因為從基提[a]傳來消息,
說泰爾已被毀滅,
房屋和港口都蕩然無存。
海邊的居民,西頓[b]的商賈啊,
要靜默無言。
你們的商人飄洋過海,
把西曷的糧食、尼羅河流域的農產都運到泰爾。
泰爾成為列國的商埠。
西頓啊,你要羞愧!
你這海上的堡壘啊,
大海否認你,說:
「我沒有經歷過產痛,
沒有生過孩子,
也未曾養育過兒女。」
埃及人聽見泰爾的消息,
都感到傷痛。
海邊的居民啊,你們要去他施!
你們要哀號!
這就是你們那歷史悠久、
充滿歡樂的城嗎?
她曾經派人到遠方居住。
泰爾曾是封王之地,
她的商賈是王侯,
她的商人名聞天下。
但她如今的遭遇是誰定的?
是萬軍之耶和華定的,
為要摧毀因榮耀而生的驕傲,
羞辱世上的尊貴者。
10 他施的人民啊,
要像尼羅河一樣穿行在自己的土地上,
因為再沒有人壓制你們。
11 耶和華已經在大海之上伸出懲罰之手,
使列國震動。
祂已下令毀滅迦南的堡壘。
12 祂說:「受欺壓的西頓人啊,
你們再也不能歡樂了!
你們就是逃到基提,
也得不到安寧。」

13 看看迦勒底人的土地,那裡已杳無人煙!亞述人使它成為野獸出沒之地,他們築起圍城的高臺,摧毀它的宮殿,使它淪為廢墟。

14 他施的船隻都哀號吧!
因為你們的堡壘已被摧毀。

15 到那日,泰爾必被遺忘七十年,正好一個王的壽數。七十年之後,泰爾必如歌中所描述的妓女:

16 「被遺忘的妓女啊,
拿起琴,走遍全城。
要彈得美妙,要多唱幾首歌,
好使人再記起你。」

17 那時,耶和華必眷顧泰爾。她必重操舊業,與天下萬國交易。 18 但她得到的利潤和收入不會被積攢或儲存起來,而是要被獻給耶和華,用來供應那些事奉耶和華的人,使他們吃得飽足,穿得精美。

  1. 23·1 基提」就是現在的塞浦路斯。
  2. 23·2 先知在本預言中提到西頓,是因為泰爾和西頓都在同一地區,都屬於腓尼基人。

A Prophecy Against Tyre

23 A prophecy against Tyre:(A)

Wail,(B) you ships(C) of Tarshish!(D)
    For Tyre is destroyed(E)
    and left without house or harbor.
From the land of Cyprus
    word has come to them.

Be silent,(F) you people of the island
    and you merchants(G) of Sidon,(H)
    whom the seafarers have enriched.
On the great waters
    came the grain of the Shihor;(I)
the harvest of the Nile[a](J) was the revenue of Tyre,(K)
    and she became the marketplace of the nations.

Be ashamed, Sidon,(L) and you fortress of the sea,
    for the sea has spoken:
“I have neither been in labor nor given birth;(M)
    I have neither reared sons nor brought up daughters.”
When word comes to Egypt,
    they will be in anguish(N) at the report from Tyre.(O)

Cross over to Tarshish;(P)
    wail, you people of the island.
Is this your city of revelry,(Q)
    the old, old city,
whose feet have taken her
    to settle in far-off lands?
Who planned this against Tyre,
    the bestower of crowns,
whose merchants(R) are princes,
    whose traders(S) are renowned in the earth?
The Lord Almighty planned(T) it,
    to bring down(U) her pride in all her splendor
    and to humble(V) all who are renowned(W) on the earth.

10 Till[b] your land as they do along the Nile,
    Daughter Tarshish,
    for you no longer have a harbor.
11 The Lord has stretched out his hand(X) over the sea
    and made its kingdoms tremble.(Y)
He has given an order concerning Phoenicia
    that her fortresses be destroyed.(Z)
12 He said, “No more of your reveling,(AA)
    Virgin Daughter(AB) Sidon, now crushed!

“Up, cross over to Cyprus;(AC)
    even there you will find no rest.”
13 Look at the land of the Babylonians,[c](AD)
    this people that is now of no account!
The Assyrians(AE) have made it
    a place for desert creatures;(AF)
they raised up their siege towers,(AG)
    they stripped its fortresses bare
    and turned it into a ruin.(AH)

14 Wail, you ships(AI) of Tarshish;(AJ)
    your fortress is destroyed!(AK)

15 At that time Tyre(AL) will be forgotten for seventy years,(AM) the span of a king’s life. But at the end of these seventy years, it will happen to Tyre as in the song of the prostitute:

16 “Take up a harp, walk through the city,
    you forgotten prostitute;(AN)
play the harp well, sing many a song,
    so that you will be remembered.”

17 At the end of seventy years,(AO) the Lord will deal with Tyre. She will return to her lucrative prostitution(AP) and will ply her trade with all the kingdoms on the face of the earth.(AQ) 18 Yet her profit and her earnings will be set apart for the Lord;(AR) they will not be stored up or hoarded. Her profits will go to those who live before the Lord,(AS) for abundant food and fine clothes.(AT)
