¹惩罚埃及与它的盟邦

¹And there is a word of Jehovah unto me, saying:

²“人子啊！你要说预言：‘主耶和华这样说：你们要哀号：那一天有祸了！

²`Son of man, prophesy, and thou hast said: Thus said the Lord Jehovah: Howl ye, ha! for the day!

³因为那一天临近了，耶和华的日子临近了，就是密云的日子，列国受罚的时候。

³For near [is] a day, near [is] a day to Jehovah! A day of clouds, the time of nations it is.

⁴必有刀剑临到埃及，被杀的人倒在埃及的时候，在古实就有痛苦；埃及的财富必被夺去，它的根基必被拆毁。

⁴And come in hath a sword to Egypt, And there hath been great pain in Cush, In the falling of the wounded in Egypt, And they have taken its store, And broken down have been its foundations.

⁵古实人、弗人、路德人、所有外族的人、吕彼亚（“吕彼亚”原文作“古巴”）人，以及与埃及结盟的人，都必与埃及人一起倒在刀下。

⁵Cush, and Phut, and Lud, and all the mixture, and Chub, And the sons of the land of the covenant with them by sword do fall,

⁶“‘耶和华这样说：那些支持埃及的必倾倒，埃及所夸耀的势力必衰落。从密夺到色弗尼，他们都必倒在刀下；这是主耶和华说的：

⁶Thus said Jehovah: And — fallen have supporters of Egypt, And come down hath the arrogance of her strength, From Migdol to Syene, by sword they fall in her, An affirmation of the Lord Jehovah.

⁷埃及必成为荒地中的荒地，它的城必成为废城中的废城。

⁷And they have been desolated in the midst of desolate lands, And its cities are in the midst of wasted cities.

⁸我在埃及点起火来的时候，所有帮助埃及的都必灭亡；那时他们就知道我是耶和华。

⁸And they have known that I [am] Jehovah, In My giving fire against Egypt, And broken have been all her helpers.

⁹那一天，必有使者从我面前乘船出去，使安逸无虑的古实人惊慌；在埃及遭难的日子，必有痛苦临到他们。看哪！这事来到了！

⁹In that day go forth do messengers from before Me in ships, To trouble confident Cush, And there hath been great pain among them, As the day of Egypt, for lo, it hath come.

¹⁰主耶和华这样说：“‘我必借着巴比伦王尼布甲尼撒的手，消灭埃及的财富。

¹⁰Thus said the Lord Jehovah: I have caused the multitude of Egypt to cease, By the hand of Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon,

¹¹他和跟随他的人，就是列国中最强横的人，必被领进来，毁灭这地；他们必拔出刀来攻击埃及，使遍地满了被杀的人。

¹¹He and his people with him — the terrible of nations, Are brought in to destroy the land, And they have drawn their swords against Egypt, And have filled the land [with] the wounded.

¹²我必使江河干涸，把这地卖给恶人；我必借着外族人的手，使这地和其中所充满的，都变成荒凉。我耶和华已经说了。

¹²And I have made floods a dry place, And I have sold the land into the hand of evil doers, And I have made desolate the land, And its fulness, by the hand of strangers, I, Jehovah, have spoken.

¹³主耶和华这样说：“‘我必毁灭偶像，使虚无的神像从挪弗灭绝。必不再有君王从埃及地而出；我也必使惧怕临到埃及地。

¹³Thus said the Lord Jehovah: And — I have destroyed idols, And caused vain things to cease from Noph, And a prince of the land of Egypt there is no more, And I give fear in the land of Egypt.

¹⁴我必使巴忒罗荒凉，也必在琐安点起火来，又向挪施行审判。

¹⁴And I have made Pathros desolate, And I have given fire against Zoan, And I have done judgments in No,

¹⁵我必把我的烈怒倒在训上，就是埃及的保障，并要剪除挪的众民。

¹⁵And I have poured out My fury on Sin, the stronghold of Egypt, And I have cut off the multitude of No.

¹⁶我必在埃及点起火来；训必有大痛苦；挪必被攻破；挪弗必终日受难。

¹⁶And I have given fire against Egypt, Greatly pained is Sin, and No is to be rent, And Noph hath daily distresses.

¹⁷亚文和比伯实的年轻人都必倒在刀下；这些城的人必被掳去。

¹⁷The youths of Aven and Pi-Beseth by sword do fall, And these into captivity do go.

¹⁸我在答比匿折断埃及众轭的时候，白昼就必变为黑暗；埃及所夸耀的势力必在其中止息；这城必有密云遮盖，城中的居民必被掳去。

¹⁸And in Tehaphnehes hath the day been dark, In My breaking there the yokes of Egypt, And ceased in her hath the excellency of her strength, She — a cloud doth cover her, And her daughters into captivity do go.

¹⁹我必这样向埃及施行审判，他们就知道我是耶和华。’”

¹⁹And I have done judgments in Egypt, And they have known that I [am] Jehovah.`

²⁰折断法老的膀臂十一年正月初七日，耶和华的话临到我说：

²⁰And it cometh to pass, in the eleventh year, in the first [month], in the seventh of the month, hath a word of Jehovah been unto me, saying: `Son of man,

²¹“人子啊！我折断了埃及王法老的膀臂；看哪！没有人把它包扎治疗，没有人用绷带把它缠裹，好让它有力量拿起刀来。

²¹The arm of Pharaoh, king of Egypt, I have broken, And lo, it hath not been bound up to give healing, To put a bandage to bind it, To strengthen it — to lay hold on the sword.

²²因此，主耶和华这样说：‘看哪！我与埃及王法老为敌；我必打断他有力的膀臂，和已经折了的膀臂，使刀从他的手中掉下。

²²Therefore, thus said the Lord Jehovah: Lo, I [am] against Pharaoh, king of Egypt, And I have broken his arms, The strong one and the broken one, And have caused the sword to fall out of his hand,

²³我必把埃及人分散到列邦，四散在各地。

²³And scattered the Egyptians among nations, And I have spread them through lands,

²⁴坚强巴比伦王的膀臂“‘我必使巴比伦王的膀臂有力量，把我的刀交在他手中；我要折断法老的膀臂，使他在巴比伦王面前呻吟，像一个受伤快死的人一样。

²⁴And strengthened the arms of the king of Babylon, And I have given My sword into his hand, And I have broken the arms of Pharaoh, And he hath groaned the groans of a pierced one — before him.

²⁵我必使巴比伦王的膀臂有力量，法老的膀臂却要下垂。我把我的刀交在巴比伦王手里，使他举刀攻击埃及地的时候，他们就知道我是耶和华。

²⁵And I have strengthened the arms of the king of Babylon, And the arms of Pharaoh do fall down, And they have known that I [am] Jehovah, In My giving My sword into the hand of the king of Babylon, And he hath stretched it out toward the land of Egypt.

²⁶我必把埃及人分散到列邦，四散在各地；他们就知道我是耶和华。’”

²⁶And I have scattered the Egyptians among nations, And I have spread them through lands, And they have known that I [am] Jehovah!`
