3:1 他对我说，人子阿，要吃你所得的，要吃这书卷，好去对以色列家讲说。
Moreover he said unto me, Son of man, eat that thou findest; eat this roll, and go speak unto the house of Israel.
3:2 于是我开口，他就使我吃这书卷，
So I opened my mouth, and he caused me to eat that roll.
3:3 又对我说，人子阿，要吃我所赐给你的这书卷，充满你的肚腹。我就吃了，口中觉得其甜如蜜。
And he said unto me, Son of man, cause thy belly to eat, and fill thy bowels with this roll that I give thee. Then did I eat it; and it was in my mouth as honey for sweetness.
3:4 他对我说，人子阿，你往以色列家那里去，将我的话对他们讲说。
And he said unto me, Son of man, go, get thee unto the house of Israel, and speak with my words unto them.
3:5 你奉差遣不是往那说话深奥，言语难懂的民那里去，乃是往以色列家去。
For thou art not sent to a people of a strange speech and of an hard language, but to the house of Israel;
3:6 不是往那说话深奥，言语难懂的多国去，他们的话语是你不懂得的。我若差你往他们那里去，他们必听从你。
Not to many people of a strange speech and of an hard language, whose words thou canst not understand. Surely, had I sent thee to them, they would have hearkened unto thee.
3:7 以色列家却不肯听从你，因为他们不肯听从我。原来以色列全家是额坚心硬的人。
But the house of Israel will not hearken unto thee; for they will not hearken unto me: for all the house of Israel are impudent and hardhearted.
3:8 看哪，我使你的脸硬过他们的脸，使你的额硬过他们的额。
Behold, I have made thy face strong against their faces, and thy forehead strong against their foreheads.
3:9 我使你的额像金钢钻，比火石更硬。他们虽是悖逆之家，你不要怕他们，也不要因他们的脸色惊惶。
As an adamant harder than flint have I made thy forehead: fear them not, neither be dismayed at their looks, though they be a rebellious house.
3:10 他又对我说，人子阿，我对你所说的一切话，要心里领会，耳中听闻。
Moreover he said unto me, Son of man, all my words that I shall speak unto thee receive in thine heart, and hear with thine ears.
3:11 你往你本国被掳的子民那里去，他们或听，或不听，你要对他们讲说，告诉他们这是主耶和华说的。
And go, get thee to them of the captivity, unto the children of thy people, and speak unto them, and tell them, Thus saith the Lord GOD; whether they will hear, or whether they will forbear.
3:12 那时，灵将我举起，我就听见在我身后有震动轰轰的声音，说，从耶和华的所在显出来的荣耀是该称颂的。
Then the spirit took me up, and I heard behind me a voice of a great rushing, saying, Blessed be the glory of the LORD from his place.
3:13 我又听见那活物翅膀相碰，与活物旁边轮子旋转震动轰轰的响声。
I heard also the noise of the wings of the living creatures that touched one another, and the noise of the wheels over against them, and a noise of a great rushing.
3:14 于是灵将我举起，带我而去。我心中甚苦，灵性忿激，并且耶和华的灵（原文作手）在我身上大有能力。
So the spirit lifted me up, and took me away, and I went in bitterness, in the heat of my spirit; but the hand of the LORD was strong upon me.
3:15 我就来到提勒亚毕，住在迦巴鲁河边被掳的人那里，到他们所住的地方，在他们中间忧忧闷闷地坐了七日。
Then I came to them of the captivity at Telabib, that dwelt by the river of Chebar, and I sat where they sat, and remained there astonished among them seven days.
3:16 过了七日，耶和华的话临到我说，
And it came to pass at the end of seven days, that the word of the LORD came unto me, saying,
3:17 人子阿，我立你作以色列家守望的人，所以你要听我口中的话，替我警戒他们。
Son of man, I have made thee a watchman unto the house of Israel: therefore hear the word at my mouth, and give them warning from me.
3:18 我何时指着恶人说，他必要死。你若不警戒他，也不劝戒他，使他离开恶行，拯救他的性命，这恶人必死在罪孽之中。我却要向你讨他丧命的罪（原文作血）。
When I say unto the wicked, Thou shalt surely die; and thou givest him not warning, nor speakest to warn the wicked from his wicked way, to save his life; the same wicked man shall die in his iniquity; but his blood will I require at thine hand.
3:19 倘若你警戒恶人，他仍不转离罪恶，也不离开恶行，他必死在罪孽之中，你却救自己脱离了罪。
Yet if thou warn the wicked, and he turn not from his wickedness, nor from his wicked way, he shall die in his iniquity; but thou hast delivered thy soul.
3:20 再者，义人何时离义而犯罪，我将绊脚石放在他面前，他就必死。因你没有警戒他，他必死在罪中，他素来所行的义不被记念。我却要向你讨他丧命的罪（原文作血）。
Again, When a righteous man doth turn from his righteousness, and commit iniquity, and I lay a stumbling-block before him, he shall die: because thou hast not given him warning, he shall die in his sin, and his righteousness which he hath done shall not be remembered; but his blood will I require at thine hand.
3:21 倘若你警戒义人，使他不犯罪，他就不犯罪。他因受警戒就必存活，你也救自己脱离了罪。
Nevertheless if thou warn the righteous man, that the righteous sin not, and he doth not sin, he shall surely live, because he is warned; also thou hast delivered thy soul.
3:22 耶和华的灵（原文作手）在那里降在我身上。他对我说，你起来往平原去，我要在那里和你说话。
And the hand of the LORD was there upon me; and he said unto me, Arise, go forth into the plain, and I will there talk with thee.
3:23 于是我起来往平原去，不料，耶和华的荣耀正如我在迦巴鲁河边所见的一样，停在那里，我就俯伏于地。
Then I arose, and went forth into the plain: and, behold, the glory of the LORD stood there, as the glory which I saw by the river of Chebar: and I fell on my face.
3:24 灵就进入我里面，使我站起来。耶和华对我说，你进房屋去，将门关上。
Then the spirit entered into me, and set me upon my feet, and spake with me, and said unto me, Go, shut thyself within thine house.
3:25 人子阿，人必用绳索捆绑你，你就不能出去在他们中间来往。
But thou, O son of man, behold, they shall put bands upon thee, and shall bind thee with them, and thou shalt not go out among them:
3:26 我必使你的舌头贴住上膛，以致你哑口，不能作责备他们的人。他们原是悖逆之家。
And I will make thy tongue cleave to the roof of thy mouth, that thou shalt be dumb, and shalt not be to them a reprover: for they are a rebellious house.
3:27 但我对你说话的时候，必使你开口，你就要对他们说，主耶和华如此说。听的可以听，不听的任他不听，因为他们是悖逆之家。
But when I speak with thee, I will open thy mouth, and thou shalt say unto them, Thus saith the Lord GOD; He that heareth, let him hear; and he that forbeareth, let him forbear: for they are a rebellious house.
