结4:1 “人子啊！你要拿一块砖头，放在你面前，在上面刻一座城，代表耶路撒冷。
结4:1 And you, son of man, take a back and put it before you and on it make a picture of a town, even Jerusalem.
结4:2 然后安放围城设施，建造围城高墙，筑起攻城土垒，摆列兵营，四周架起攻城锤。
结4:2 And make an attack on it, shutting it in, building strong places against it, and making high an earthwork against it; and put up tents against it, placing engines all round it for smashing down its walls.
结4:3 你又要拿一个铁的煎盘，放在你和城的中间当作铁墙。你要面向着城，象征城要被围困，你就是围攻那城的。这要作以色列家的预兆。
结4:3 And take a flat iron plate, and put it for a wall of iron between you and the town: and let your face be turned to it, and it will be shut in and you will make an attack on it. This will be a sign to the children of Israel.
结4:4 “你要向左边侧卧，承担以色列家的罪孽。你向左边侧卧多少日子，你担当他们的罪孽也是多少日子。
结4:4 Then, stretching yourself out on your left side, take the sin of the children of Israel on yourself: for as long as you are stretched out, so long will the sin of the children of Israel be on you.
结4:5 我已经给你定了日子的数目，就是三百九十天，等于他们作孽的年数，你要在这些日子担当以色列家的罪孽。
结4:5 For I have had the years of their sin measured for you by a number of days, even three hundred and ninety days: and you will take on yourself the sin of the children of Israel.
结4:6 这些日子满了以后，你要再向右边侧卧，担当犹大家的罪孽，我已经给你定了四十天，一天等于一年。
结4:6 And when these days are ended, turning on your right side, you are to take on yourself the sin of the children of Judah: forty days, a day for a year, I have had it fixed for you.
结4:7 你要面向着被围困的耶路撒冷，赤露着膀臂，说预言攻击这城。
结4:7 And let your face be turned to where Jerusalem is shut in, with your arm uncovered, and be a prophet against it.
结4:8 我要用绳子把你捆绑起来，使你不能转身，直等到你围困城的日子满了。
结4:8 And see, I will put bands on you; and you will be stretched out without turning from one side to the other till the days of your attack are ended.
结4:9 “你要拿小麦、大麦、豆子、扁豆、粟米和粗麦，放在一个器皿里，给自己做饼。在你侧卧的三百九十天里，你都要吃这些饼。
结4:9 And take for yourself wheat and barley and different sorts of grain, and put them in one vessel and make bread for yourself from them; all the days when you are stretched on your side it will be your food.
结4:10 你所吃的食物要有一定分量，每天二百三十克，要在指定的时候吃。
结4:10 And you are to take your food by weight, twenty shekels a day: you are to take it at regular times.
结4:11 你喝的水也要有一定分量，每天半公升，要在指定的时候喝。
结4:11 And you are to take water by measure, the sixth part of a hin: you are to take it at regular times.
结4:12 你吃这些饼，要像吃烙的大麦饼一样，但要用人粪在众人面前烧烤。”
结4:12 And let your food be barley cakes, cooking it before their eyes with the waste which comes out of a man.
结4:13 耶和华说：“以色列人在我赶他们去的列国中，也要这样吃不洁净的食物。”
结4:13 And the Lord said, Even so the children of Israel will have unclean bread for their food among the nations where I am driving them.
结4:14 我说：“主耶和华啊！我从来没有玷污过自己。我从小到现在都没有吃过已经死去的，或是野兽撕裂的动物，不洁净的肉从没有进过我的口。”
结4:14 Then I said, Ah, Lord! see, my soul has never been unclean, and I have never taken as my food anything which has come to a natural death or has been broken by beasts, from the time when I was young even till now; no disgusting flesh has ever come into my mouth.
结4:15 于是他对我说：“你看，我准你用牛粪代替人粪，你可以在牛粪上烤你的饼。”
结4:15 Then he said to me, See, I have given you cow's waste in place of man's waste, and you will make your bread ready on it.
结4:16 他又对我说：“人子啊，我要断绝耶路撒冷的粮食。他们要满心忧虑，吃配给的口粮；十分惊惶，喝配给的水。
结4:16 And he said to me, Son of man, see, I will take away from Jerusalem her necessary bread: they will take their bread by weight and with care, measuring out their drinking-water with fear and wonder:
结4:17 他们缺粮缺水，各人都必惊惶，因自己的罪孽衰弱而死。”
结4:17 So that they may be in need of bread and water and be wondering at one another, wasting away in their sin.
