18：32主耶和华说，我不喜悦那死人之死，所以你们当回头而存活。
For I have no pleasure in the death of him that dieth； saith the Lord GOD： wherefore turn yourselves； and live ye。
旧约 以西结书（Ezekiel） 第 19 章 （ 本篇共有 48 章 ） 7上一章 下一章8 目录
19：1你当为以色列的王作起哀歌，
Moreover take thou up a lamentation for the princes of Israel；
19：2说，你的母亲是什么呢。是个母狮子，蹲伏在狮子中间，在少壮狮子中养育小狮子。
And say； What is thy mother？ A lioness： she lay down among lions； she nourished her whelps among young lions。
19：3在它小狮子中养大一个，成了少壮狮子，学会抓食而吃人。
And she brought up one of her whelps： it became a young lion； and it learned to catch the prey； it devoured men。
19：4列国听见了就把它捉在他们的坑中，用钩子拉到埃及地去。
The nations also heard of him； he was taken in their pit； and they brought him with chains unto the land of Egypt。
19：5母狮见自己等候失了指望，就从它小狮子中又将一个养为少壮狮子。
Now when she saw that she had waited； and her hope was lost； then she took another of her whelps； and made him a young lion。
19：6它在众狮子中走来走去，成了少壮狮子，学会抓食而吃人。
And he went up and down among the lions； he became a young lion； and learned to catch the prey； and devoured men。
19：7它知道列国的宫殿，又使他们的城邑变为荒场。因它咆哮的声音，遍地和其中所有的就都荒废。
And he knew their desolate palaces； and he laid waste their cities； and the land was desolate； and the fulness thereof； by the noise of his roaring。
19：8于是四围邦国各省的人来攻击它，将网撒在它身上，捉在他们的坑中。
Then the nations set against him on every side from the provinces； and spread their net over him： he was taken in their pit。
19：9他们用钩子钩住它，将它放在笼中，带到巴比伦王那里，将它放入坚固之所，使它的声音在以色列山上不再听见。
And they put him in ward in chains； and brought him to the king of Babylon： they brought him into holds； that his voice should no more be heard upon the mountains of Israel。
19：10你的母亲先前如葡萄树，极其茂盛（原文作在你血中），栽于水旁。因为水多，就多结果子，满生枝子。
Thy mother is like a vine in thy blood； planted by the waters： she was fruitful and full of branches by reason of many waters。
19：11生出坚固的枝干，可作掌权者的杖。这枝干高举在茂密的枝中，而且它生长高大，枝子繁多，远远可见。
And she had strong rods for the sceptres of them that bare rule； and her stature was exalted among the thick branches； and she appeared in her height with the multitude of her branches。
19：12但这葡萄树因忿怒被拔出摔在地上。东风吹乾其上的果子，坚固的枝干折断枯乾，被火烧毁了。
But she was plucked up in fury； she was cast down to the ground； and the east wind dried up her fruit： her strong rods were broken and withered； the fire consumed them。
19：13如今栽于旷野乾旱无水之地。
And now she is planted in the wilderness； in a dry and thirsty ground。
19：14火也从它枝干中发出，烧灭果子，以致没有坚固的枝干可作掌权者的杖。这是哀歌，也必用以作哀歌。
And fire is gone out of a rod of her branches； which hath devoured her fruit； so that she hath no strong rod to be a sceptre to rule。 This is a lamentation； and shall be for a lamentation。

20：1第七年五月初十日，有以色列的几个长老来求问耶和华，坐在我面前。
And it came to pass in the seventh year； in the fifth month； the tenth day of the month； that certain of the elders of Israel came to enquire of the LORD； and sat before me。
20：2耶和华的话临到我说，
Then came the word of the LORD unto me； saying；
20：3人子阿，你要告诉以色列的长老说，主耶和华如此说，你们来是求问我吗。主耶和华说，我指着我的永生起誓，我必不被你们求问。
Son of man； speak unto the elders of Israel； and say unto them； Thus saith the Lord GOD； Are ye e to enquire of me？ As I live； saith the Lord GOD； I will not be enquired of by you。
20：4人子阿，你要审问审问他们吗。你当使他们知道他们列祖那些可憎的事，
Wilt thou judge them； son of man； wilt thou judge them？ cause them to know the abominations of their fathers：
20：5对他们说，主耶和华如此说，当日我拣选以色列，向雅各家的后裔起誓，在埃及地将自己向他们显现，说，我是耶和华你们的神。
And say unto them； Thus saith the Lord GOD； In the day when I chose Israel； and lifted up mine hand unto the seed of the house of Jacob； and made myself known unto them in the land of Egypt； when I lifted up mine hand unto them； saying； I am the LORD your God；
20：6那日我向他们起誓，必领他们出埃及地，到我为他们察看的流奶与蜜之地。那地在万国中是有荣耀的。
In the day that I lifted up mine hand unto them； to bring them forth of the land of Egypt into a land that I had espied for them； flowing with milk and honey； which is the glory of all lands：
20：7我对他们说，你们各人要抛弃眼所喜爱那可憎之物，不可因埃及的偶像玷污自己。我是耶和华你们的神。
Then said I unto them； Cast ye away every man the abominations of his eyes； and defile not yourselves with the idols of Egypt： I am the LORD your God。
20：8他们却悖逆我，不肯听从我，不抛弃他们眼所喜爱那可憎之物，不离弃埃及的偶像。我就说，我要将我的忿怒倾在他们身上，在埃及地向他们成就我怒中所定的。
But they rebelled against me； and would not hearken unto me： they did not every man cast away the abominations of their eyes； neither did they forsake the idols of Egypt： then I said； I will pour out my fury upon them； to acplish my anger against them in the midst of the land of Egypt。
20：9我却为我名的缘故没有这样行，免得我名在他们所住的列国人眼前被亵渎。我领他们出埃及地，在这列国人的眼前将自己向他们显现。
But I wrought for my name's sake； that it should not be polluted before the heathen； among whom they were； in whose sight I made myself known unto them； in bringing them forth out of the land of Egypt。
20：10这样，我就使他们出埃及地，领他们到旷野，
Wherefore I caused them to go forth out of the land of Egypt； and brought them into the wilderness。
20：11将我的律例赐给他们，将我的典章指示他们。人若遵行就必因此活着。
And I gave them my statutes； and shewed them my judgments； which if a man do； he shall even live in them。
20：12又将我的安息日赐给他们，好在我与他们中间为证据，使他们知道我耶和华是叫他们成为圣的。
Moreover also I gave them my sabbaths； to be a sign between me and them； that they might know that I am the LORD that sanctify them。
20：13以色列家却在旷野悖逆我，不顺从我的律例，厌弃我的典章（人若遵行就必因此活着），大大干犯我的安息日。我就说，要在旷野将我的忿怒倾在他们身上，灭绝他们。
But the house of Israel rebelled against me in the wilderness： they walked not in my statutes； and they despised my judgments； which if a man do； he shall even live in them； and my sabbaths they greatly polluted： then I said； I would pour out my fury upon them in the wilderness； to consume them。
20：14我却为我名的缘故，没有这样行，免得我的名在我领他们出埃及的列国人眼前被亵渎。
But I wrought for my name's sake； that it should not be polluted before the heathen； in whose sight I brought them out。
20：15并且我在旷野向他们起誓，必不领他们进入我所赐给他们流奶与蜜之地，那地在万国中是有荣耀的。
Yet also I lifted up my hand unto them in the wilderness； that I would not bring them into the land which I had given them； flowing with milk and honey； which is the glory of all lands；
20：16因为他们厌弃我的典章，郴顺从我的律例，干犯我的安息日，他们的心随从自己的偶像。
Because they despised my judgments； and walked not in my statutes； but polluted my sabbaths： for their heart went after their idols。
20：17虽然如此，我眼仍顾惜他们，不毁灭他们，不在旷野将他们灭绝净尽。
Nevertheless mine eye spared them from destroying them； neither did I make an end of them in the wilderness。
20：18我在旷野对他们的儿女说，不要遵行你们父亲的律例，不要谨守他们的恶规，也不要因他们的偶像玷污自己。
But I said unto their children in the wilderness； Walk ye not in the statutes of your fathers； neither observe their judgments； nor defile yourselves with their idols：
20：19我是耶和华你们的神，你们要顺从我的律例，谨守遵行我的典章，
I am the LORD your God； walk in my statutes； and keep my judgments； and do them；
20：20且以我的安息日为圣。这日在我与你们中间为证据，使你们知道我是耶和华你们的神。
And hallow my sabbaths； and they shall be a sign between me and you； that ye may know that I am the LORD your God。
20：21只是他们的儿女悖逆我，不顺从我的律例，也不谨守遵行我的典章（人若遵行就必因此活着），干犯我的安息日。我就说，要将我的忿怒倾在他们身上，在旷野向他们成就我怒中所定的。
Notwithstanding the children rebelled against me： they walked not in my statutes； neither kept my judgments to do them； which if a man do； he shall even live in them； they polluted my sabbaths： then I said； I would pour out my fury upon them； to acplish my anger against them in the wilderness。
20：22虽然如此，我却为我名的缘故缩手没有这样行，免得我的名在我领他们出埃及的列国人眼前被亵渎。
Nevertheless I withdrew mine hand； and wrought for my name's sake； that it should not be polluted in the sight of the heathen； in whose sight I brought them forth。
20：23并且我在旷野向他们起誓，必将他们分散在列国，四散在列邦。
I lifted up mine hand unto them also in the wilderness； that I would scatter them among the heathen； and disperse them through the countries；
20：24因为他们不遵行我的典章，竟厌弃我的律例，干犯我的安息日，眼目仰望他们父亲的偶像。
Because they had not executed my judgments； but had despised my statutes； and had pol
