¹吃书卷

¹And He saith unto me, `Son of man, that which thou findest eat, eat this roll, and go, speak unto the house of Israel.`

²于是我把口张开，他就给我吃下那书卷。

²And I open my mouth, and He causeth me to eat this roll.

³他又对我说：“人子啊！把我赐给你的那书卷吃下去，填满你的肚子。”于是我吃了，这书卷在我口里像蜜糖一样甘甜。

³And He saith unto me, `Son of man, thy belly thou dost feed, and thy bowels thou dost fill with this roll that I am giving unto thee;` and I eat it, and it is in my mouth as honey for sweetness.

⁴受主训勉他对我说：“人子啊，你去！到以色列家那里，把我的话告诉他们。

⁴And He saith unto me, `Son of man, go, enter in unto the house of Israel, and thou hast spoken with My words unto them.

⁵你受差派不是到一个说话难明、言语难懂的民族那里去，而是到以色列家去；

⁵For, not unto a people deep of lip and heavy of tongue [art] thou sent — unto the house of Israel;

⁶不是到说话难明、言语难懂的众多民族那里去，他们的话是你听不懂的。但是，如果我差派你到他们那里去，他们必听从你。

⁶not unto many peoples, deep of lip and heavy of tongue, whose words thou dost not understand. If I had not sent thee unto them — they, they do hearken unto thee,

⁷以色列家却不肯听从你，因为他们不肯听从我，整个以色列家都是额坚心硬的。

⁷but the house of Israel are not willing to hearken unto thee, for they are not willing to hearken unto Me, for all the house of Israel are brazen-faced and strong-hearted.

⁸看哪！我要使你的脸硬过他们的脸，使你的额硬过他们的额。

⁸`Lo, I have made thy face strong against their face, and thy forehead strong against their forehead.

⁹我要使你的额好像最坚硬的宝石，比火石更硬。他们虽然是叛逆的民族，你却不要怕他们，在他们面前，也不要惊惶。”

⁹As an adamant harder than a rock I have made thy forehead; thou dost not fear them, nor art thou affrighted before them, for a rebellious house [are] they.`

¹⁰他又对我说：“人子啊！我对你说的一切话，你都要留心听，记在心里。

¹⁰And He saith unto me, `Son of man, all My words, that I speak unto thee, receive with thy heart, and with thine ears hear;

¹¹你去，到被掳的人民那里，向他们宣讲；他们或听或不听，你只要对他们说：‘主耶和华这样说。’”

¹¹and go, enter in unto the Removed, unto the sons of thy people, and thou hast spoken unto them, and hast said unto them: Thus said the Lord Jehovah: whether they hear, or whether they forbear.`

¹²那时，灵使我升起，我就听见后面有轰轰的响声：“耶和华的居所显现出来的荣耀是应当称颂的！”

¹²And lift me up doth a spirit, and I hear behind me a noise, a great rushing — `Blessed [is] the honour of Jehovah from His place!` —

¹³我又听见那些活物的翅膀彼此相碰的声音和活物旁边的轮子的声音，以及轰轰的响声。

¹³even a noise of the wings of the living creatures touching one another, and a noise of the wheels over-against them, even a noise of a great rushing.

¹⁴灵使我升起，把我提去。那时我心灵忿激、愁苦。耶和华的手强而有力临到我身上。

¹⁴And a spirit hath lifted me up, and doth take me away, and I go bitterly, in the heat of my spirit, and the hand of Jehovah on me [is] strong.

¹⁵于是我来到提勒．亚毕被掳的人那里，他们住在迦巴鲁河边。我在他们居住的地方坐了七天，在他们中间震惊得不知所措。

¹⁵And I come in unto the Removed, at Tel-Ahib, who are dwelling at the river Chebar, and where they are dwelling I also dwell seven days, causing astonishment in their midst.

¹⁶以色列家的守望者（结33:1-9）过了七天，耶和华的话临到我说：

¹⁶And it cometh to pass, at the end of seven days,

¹⁷“人子啊，我立了你作以色列家守望的人，所以你要聆听我口中的话，替我警告他们。

¹⁷that there is a word of Jehovah unto me, saying, `Son of man, a watchman I have given thee to the house of Israel, and thou hast heard from My mouth a word, and hast warned them from Me.

¹⁸如果我对恶人说：‘你必定死亡！’你却不警告他，也不警戒他离开恶行，好救他的性命，这恶人就必因自己的罪孽死亡。但我要因他的死追究你。

¹⁸In My saying to the wicked: Thou dost surely die; and thou hast not warned him, nor hast spoken to warn the wicked from his wicked way, so that he doth live; he — the wicked — in his iniquity dieth, and his blood from thy hand I require.

¹⁹如果你警告恶人，他仍不离开他的罪恶和他的恶行，他就必因自己的罪孽死亡，你却救了自己的性命。

¹⁹And thou, because thou hast warned the wicked, and he hath not turned back from his wickedness, and from his wicked way, he in his iniquity dieth, and thou thy soul hast delivered.

²⁰如果义人偏离正义，行事邪恶，我必把绊脚石放在他面前，他必定死亡；因为你没有警告他，他必因自己的罪死亡。他素常所行的义，也必不被记念。但我要因他的死追究你。

²⁰`And in the turning back of the righteous from his righteousness, and he hath done perversity, and I have put a stumbling-block before him, he dieth; because thou hast not warned him, in his sin he dieth, and not remembered is his righteousness that he hath done, and his blood from thy hand I require.

²¹如果你警告义人不要犯罪，他就不犯罪。他因为接受警告，就必存活，你也救了自己的性命。”

²¹And thou, because thou hast warned him — the righteous — that the righteous sin not, and he hath not sinned, he surely liveth, because he hath been warned; and thou thy soul hast delivered.`

²²暂时缄口不言耶和华的手在那里临到我身上，他对我说：“你起来，出到平原去，在那里我要向你说话。”

²²And there is on me there a hand of Jehovah, and He saith to me, `Rise, go forth to the valley, and there I do speak with thee.`

²³于是，我起来，出到平原去，看见耶和华的荣耀停在那里，这荣耀就像我在迦巴鲁河边看见的一样。于是我俯伏在地。

²³And I rise and go forth unto the valley, and lo, there the honour of Jehovah is standing as the honour that I had seen by the river Chebar, and I fall on my face.

²⁴灵进到我里面，使我站立起来，耶和华对我说：“你进去，把自己关在家里。

²⁴And come into me doth a spirit, and causeth me to stand on my feet, and He speaketh with me, and saith unto me, `Go in, be shut up in the midst of thy house.

²⁵人子啊！人要用绳子把你捆绑起来，使你不能出到他们中间去。

²⁵`And thou, son of man, lo, they have put on thee thick bands, and have bound thee with them, and thou goest not forth in their midst;

²⁶我要使你的舌头贴住上膛，使你变成哑巴，不能作责备他们的人，因为他们是叛逆的民族。

²⁶and thy tongue I cause to cleave unto thy palate, and thou hast been dumb, and art not to them for a reprover, for a rebellious house [are] they.

²⁷但我对你说话的时候，我必开你的口，你就要对他们说：‘主耶和华这样说。’肯听的就让他听，不肯听的，就由他不听吧，因为他们是叛逆的民族。”

²⁷And in My speaking with thee, I do open thy mouth, and thou hast said unto them: Thus said the Lord Jehovah; the hearer doth hear, and the forbearer doth forbear; for a rebellious house [are] they.
