Ezequiel第29章

学习

   

1 No décimo ano, no décimo mês, no dia doze do mês, veio a mim a palavra do Senhor, dizendo:

2 Filho do homem, dirige o teu rosto contra Faraó, rei do Egito, e profetiza contra ele e contra todo o Egito.

3 Fala, e dize: Assim diz o Senhor Deus: Eis-me contra ti, ó Faraó, rei do Egito, grande dragão, que pousas no meio dos teus rios, e que dizes: O meu rio é meu, e eu o fiz para mim.

4 Mas eu porei anzóis em teus queixos, e farei que os peixes dos teus rios se apeguem às tuas escamas; e tirar-te-ei dos teus rios, juntamente com todos os peixes dos teus nos que se apegarem as tuas escamas.

5 E te lançarei no deserto, a ti e a todos os peixes dos teus rios; sobre a face do campo cairás; não serás recolhido nem ajuntado. Aos animais da terra e às aves do céu te dei por pasto.

6 E saberão todos os moradores do Egito que eu sou o Senhor, porque tu tens sido um bordão de cana para a casa de Israel.

7 Tomando-te eles na mão, tu te quebraste e lhes rasgaste todo o ombro; e quando em ti se apoiaram, tu te quebraste, fazendo estremecer todos os seus lombos.

8 Portanto, assim diz o Senhor Deus: Eis que eu trarei sobre ti a espada, e de ti exterminarei homem e animal.

9 E a terra do Egito se tornará em desolação e deserto; e saberão que eu sou o Senhor. Porquanto disseste: O rio é meu, e eu o fiz;

10 por isso eis que eu estou contra ti e contra os teus rios; e tornarei a terra do Egito em desertas e assoladas solidões, desde Migdol de Sevené até os confins da Etiópia.

11 Não passará por ela de homem, nem de animal passará por ela, nem será habitada durante quarenta anos.

12 Assim tornarei a terra do Egito em desolação no meio das terras assoladas, e as suas cidades no meio das cidades assoladas ficarão desertas por quarenta anos; e espalharei os egípcios entre as nações, e os dispersarei pelos países.

13 Pois assim diz o Senhor Deus: Ao cabo de quarenta anos ajuntarei os egípcios dentre os povos entre os quais foram espalhados.

14 E restaurarei do cativeiro os egípcios, e os farei voltar à terra de Patros, à sua terra natal; e serão ali um reino humilde;

15 mais humilde se fará do que os outros reinos, e nunca mais se exalçará sobre as nações; e eu os diminuirei, para que não mais dominem sobre as nações.

16 E não será mais a confiança da casa de Israel e a ocasião de ser lembrada a sua iniqüidade, quando se virarem para olhar após eles; antes saberão que eu sou o Senhor Deus.

17 E sucedeu que, no ano vinte e sete, no mês primeiro, no primeiro dia do mês, veio a mim a palavra do Senhor, dizendo:

18 Filho do homem, Nabucodonozor, rei de Babilônia, fez com que o seu exército prestasse um grande serviço contra Tiro. Toda cabeça se tornou calva, e todo ombro se pelou; contudo não houve paga da parte de Tiro para ele, nem para o seu exército, pelo serviço que prestou contra ela.

19 Portanto, assim diz o Senhor Deus: Eis que eu darei a Nabucodonozor, rei de Babilônia, a terra do Egito; assim levará ele a multidão dela, como tomará o seu despojo e roubará a sua presa; e isso será a paga para o seu exército.

20 Como recompensa do serviço que me prestou, pois trabalhou por mim, eu lhe dei a terra do Egito, diz o Senhor Deus.

21 Naquele dia farei brotar um chifre para a casa de Israel; e te concederei que abras a boca no meio deles; e saberão que eu sou o Senhor.

58. The state of consummation of the Israelitish Church is described in both the historical parts of the Word, and its prophetic parts: in the prophetic, by the atrocious deeds of the kings, first of those of the Israelites, and afterwards of those of the Jews, by whom and under whom the land is said to have been profaned. But it is needless to recite them, because they are well known; only those passages from the prophetic parts shall be adduced in which the consummation and devastation of that Church are treated of. In these passages by "earth" and "land," "Zion," "Jerusalem," "cities," "mountains," "hills," "valleys," and "rivers," similar things are signified as above (n. 55). The following are from the prophetic parts of the Word:

[2] I saw the earth, and behold it was empty and void; and towards the heavens, and their light was not.... I saw, when, behold, Carmel 1 was a desert, and all the cities were desolated at the presence of Jehovah.... For thus hath Jehovah said, The whole land shall be wasteness, yet will I not make a consummation. For this shall the earth mourn, and the heavens above be blackened.

Thou, therefore, that art vastated, what wilt thou do? (Jer. 4:23-31; 5:10, 18).

The lion hath come up from his thicket, and the destroyer of nations... hath gone forth from his place, to reduce the land to a waste.... In that day... the heart of the king shall perish, and the heart of the princes; and the priests shall be astonished (Jer. 4:7, 9).

In that day, every place where there were a thousand vines shall be... for thorns and briars,... because all the land shall be thorns and briars (Isa. 7:23-24).

A voice of the cry of the shepherds and... of the powerful ones of the flock, for Jehovah layeth waste their pastures: whence the sheepfolds of peace were devastated. Jehovah hath forsaken His tabernacle, for their land was reduced to a desolation (Jer. 25:36-38).

This house shall be like Shiloh, and Jerusalem shall be a devastation (Jer. 26:9; 27:17).

Jerusalem, and all the cities of Judah, shall be a desolation and a devastation in this day, because of the wickedness of your works; . . . your land is become a desolation, an astonishment and a curse (Jer. 44:2, 6, 22).

I will give the land to devastation, because they have committed transgression (Ezek. 15:8).

They shall be devastated in the midst of the devastated lands, and her cities in the midst of the desolated cities.... Then I will make the rivers drought,... the land into the hand of the evil, and I will vastate the land and the fulness thereof (Ezek. 30:7, 12).

When I shall extinguish thee, I will cover the heavens, and will make the stars thereof black. I will cover the sun with a cloud, and the moon shall not cause her light to shine;... and I will set darkness upon the land... when I shall bring on thy breaking up (Ezek. 32:7-9);

in like manner as the Lord foretold concerning the consummation of the present Christian Church (Matt. 24:29).

[3] I will give Mount Seir to wasteness and to devastation.... I will make thee the wastes of eternity... (Ezek. 35:3-4, 7, 9, 12, 14-15).

In that day they shall bring up a proverb against you... and say, In vastating we are vastated (Micah 2:4).

Fear and the pit have taken hold of us, devastation and breaking up (Lam. 3:47).

The mountain of Zion is vastated (Lam. 5:18).

Thine iniquity is consummated, O daughter of Zion (Lam. 4:22).

Woe to the sinful nation, heavy with iniquity;... they have provoked the Holy One of Israel.... From the sole of the foot even to the head, there is no soundness;... your land is a solitude.... The daughter of Zion is left as a tent in a vineyard, as a besieged city (Isa. 1:4-8, and following verses).

What will ye do in the day of visitation and devastation? Consummation is finished, justice is overwhelmed; for the Lord Jehovih is making a consummation and decision in the whole land (Isa. 10:3, etc., Isa. 10:22-23).

I have heard a consummation and decision from the Lord Jehovih of hosts in the whole land (Isa. 28:22).

The prophet fell upon his face, and said, Lord Jehovih! Thou art making a consummation with the remnants of Israel (Ezek. 11:13).

My sanctuary was profaned, and the land of Israel was devastated (Ezek. 25:3).

Were even Noah, Daniel and Job in the midst of it,... they only shall be delivered, but the land shall become a desolation (Ezek. 14:14, 16).

[4] The completion of the consummation of the Israelitish and Jewish Church was accomplished when the Lord our Saviour, after receiving the sponge of vinegar, cried out upon the cross,

It is consummated (John 19:29-30);

for it is said in David:

They gave gall for My meat, and in My thirst they gave Me vinegar to drink:... let their habitation be devastated (Psalm 69:21, 25).

And in another place:

Without cause have they hid for Me the pit of the net; without cause have they digged for My soul. Let devastation come upon him before he is aware;... let him fall into devastation. Rescue My soul from their devastators, and My only one,-that is, the Church-from the lions' whelps (Psalm 35:7-8, 17).

I will make Jerusalem heaps, a habitation of dragons; I will reduce the cities of Judah to a waste;... behold, I am feeding them, even this people, with wormwood, and I will give them waters of gall to drink (Jer. 9:11-15).

Full consummation, after this, is described in Hosea thus:

The sons of Israel shall sit many days: no king, no prince, no sacrifice, no image, no ephod, and no teraphim (Hosea 3:4).

Such is their state at the present day. There is no need to adduce more passages. The passages in which the vastation, desolation and consummation of this Church are further mentioned, shall be only named: as, for example, Isa. 9:13-21; 22:4-14: Jer. 7:31-34; 25:33; 47:4: Ezek. 13:14-15; 14:8, 15; 19:7; 25:12-13; 26:2; 29:9-10, 12; 32:12, 15: Joel 1:15-20; 2:3; 3:19: Nahum 1:8-9: Zeph. 1:15; 2:9: Lam. 1:16: Psalm 73:17-19; 74:3.

The devastated are also called "thrust through" 2 (Ezek. 11:6-7; 21:30, 34; 26:6; 28:8, 23; 31:17-18; 32:20-24, 28-32; 35:8: Zeph. 2:12: Lam. 4:9: Psalm 69:27: and in other places). They are said to be "thrust through" because a "sword," by which this is done, signifies falsity destroying truth.

脚注:

1. See R.V. margin.

2. In most of these passages our ordinary Bibles have "slain"; but Young's Literal Translation of the Bible has "pierced," which, of course, is the same as "thrust through."
