以西结书 2
1
他对我说,人子阿,你站起来,我要和你说话。

He said to me, "Son of man, stand up on your feet and I will speak to you."

2
他对我说话的时候,灵就进入我里面,使我站起来,我便听见那位对我说话的声音。

As he spoke, the Spirit came into me and raised me to my feet, and I heard him speaking to me.

3
他对我说,人子阿,我差你往悖逆的国民以色列人那里去。他们是悖逆我的,他们和他们的列祖违背我,直到今日。

He said: "Son of man, I am sending you to the Israelites, to a rebellious nation that has rebelled against me; they and their fathers have been in revolt against me to this very day.

4
这众子面无羞耻,心里刚硬。我差你往他们那里去,你要对他们说,主耶和华如此说。

The people to whom I am sending you are obstinate and stubborn. Say to them, 'This is what the Sovereign LORD says.'

5
他们或听,或不听,(他们是悖逆之家),必知道在他们中间有了先知。

And whether they listen or fail to listen--for they are a rebellious house--they will know that a prophet has been among them.

6
人子阿,虽有荆棘和蒺藜在你那里,你又住在蝎子中间,总不要怕他们,也不要怕他们的话。他们虽是悖逆之家,还不要怕他们的话,也不要因他们的脸色惊惶。

And you, son of man, do not be afraid of them or their words. Do not be afraid, though briers and thorns are all around you and you live among scorpions. Do not be afraid of what they say or terrified by them, though they are a rebellious house.

7
他们或听,或不听,你只管将我的话告诉他们。他们是极其悖逆的。

You must speak my words to them, whether they listen or fail to listen, for they are rebellious.

8
人子阿,要听我对你所说的话,不要悖逆像那悖逆之家,你要开口吃我所赐给你的。

But you, son of man, listen to what I say to you. Do not rebel like that rebellious house; open your mouth and eat what I give you."

9
我观看,见有一只手向我伸出来,手中有一书卷。

Then I looked, and I saw a hand stretched out to me. In it was a scroll,

10
他将书卷在我面前展开,内外都写着字,其上所写的有哀号,叹息,悲痛的话。

which he unrolled before me. On both sides of it were written words of lament and mourning and woe.
