Eze 31:1-18.
简体中文
orihinal na Ingles
Eze 31:1-18.
THE OVERTHROW OF EGYPT ILLUSTRATED BY THAT OF ASSYRIA.
Not that Egypt was, like Assyria, utterly to cease to be, but it was, like Assyria, to lose its prominence in the empire of the world.
1. third month--two months later than the prophecy delivered in
Eze 30:20.

2. 你可与谁相比呢——答案是：你可比那骄傲的亚述王；他既被迦勒底人倾覆，你也必被同一势力所倾覆。
orihinal na Ingles
2. Whom art thou like--The answer is, Thou art like the haughty king of Assyria; as he was overthrown by the Chaldeans, so shalt thou be by the same.

3. 他以亚述的骄傲及其随后的倾覆为鉴，好让埃及更清楚自己所当期望的结局。
黎巴嫩中的香柏树——常高达八十英尺，其枝条所覆盖的范围直径更大：形态完美匀称。参较类似的意象
(Eze 17:3; Da 4:20-22)。
枝条荫庇——以浓荫蔽日的丛枝。
顶尖……在……密枝中——更恰当的译法[HENGSTENBERG]作“在云中”。但英文版与希伯来文更为吻合。顶尖或顶上的嫩枝代表君王；密枝代表帝国丰富的资源。

3. He illustrates the pride and the consequent overthrow of the Assyrian, that Egypt may the better know what she must expect.
cedar in Lebanon--often eighty feet high, and the diameter of the space covered by its boughs still greater: the symmetry perfect. Compare the similar image
(Eze 17:3; Da 4:20-22).
with a shadowing shroud--with an overshadowing thicket.
top . . . among . . . thick boughs--rather [HENGSTENBERG], "among the clouds." But English Version agrees better with the Hebrew. The top, or topmost shoot, represents the king; the thick boughs, the large resources of the empire.

4. 众水……小河——底格里斯河及其支流和“溪流”，或灌溉用的“渠道”，是亚述肥沃之源。“深渊”是那永不干涸、长流不息的水。比喻上指亚述的资源，正如“渠道”指她的殖民地。
orihinal na Ingles
4. waters . . . little rivers--the Tigris with its branches and "rivulets," or "conduits" for irrigation, the source of Assyria's fertility. "The deep" is the ever flowing water, never dry. Metaphorically, for Assyria's resources, as the "conduits" are her colonies.

5. 当他发旺的时候——因滋润他使之发旺的丰盛水分。但参看边注（Margin）。
orihinal na Ingles
5. when he shot forth--because of the abundant moisture which nourished him in shooting forth. But see Margin.

6. 飞鸟……在枝子上搭窝——如此
Eze 17:23; Da 4:12。
福音的国度要把万物都招聚在自己的荫下，为他们的益处、并为神的荣耀；而世上的诸国如此行，却是为恶、为自高
(Mt 13:32)。
orihinal na Ingles
6. fowls . . . made . . . nests in . . . boughs--so
Eze 17:23; Da 4:12.
The gospel kingdom shall gather all under its covert, for their good and for the glory of God, which the world kingdoms did for evil and for self-aggrandizement
(Mt 13:32).

8. 香柏树……不能遮蔽他——不能高过他。没有别的王能掩盖他的光辉。
不像——无可比拟。
神的园——正如论及 Tyre
(Eze 28:13)
那样，此处用于 Assyria 王的意象取自 Eden；特别贴切，因 Eden 由日后灌溉 Assyria 的诸河所灌溉
(Ge 2:10-14)。
这棵香柏树似乎将乐园的一切荣耀集于一身，以致园中没有任何树能高过它。
orihinal na Ingles
8. cedars . . . could not hide him--could not outtop him. No other king eclipsed him.
were not like--were not comparable to.
garden of God--As in the case of Tyre
(Eze 28:13),
the imagery, that is applied to the Assyrian king, is taken from Eden; peculiarly appropriate, as Eden was watered by rivers that afterwards watered Assyria
(Ge 2:10-14).
This cedar seemed to revive in itself all the glories of paradise, so that no tree there outtopped it.

9. 我……使他——这一切都因我白白的恩典。
orihinal na Ingles
9. I . . . made him--It was all due to My free grace.
10

10. 你……他——人称的转换，是因为这话部分指香柏树，部分指香柏树所象征的人。
orihinal na Ingles
10. thou . . . he--The change of persons is because the language refers partly to the cedar, partly to the person signified by the cedar.
11

11. 此处字面取代了比喻。
必按他自己所想的待他——即按他自己的喜悦，并按 Assyria（Sardanapalus）所该受的。Nebuchadnezzar 被称为“强者”（El，神之名之一），因他是神的代表与审判的工具
(Da 2:37, 38)。
orihinal na Ingles
11. Here the literal supersedes the figurative.
shall surely deal with him--according to his own pleasure, and according to the Assyrian's (Sardanapalus) desert. Nebuchadnezzar is called "the mighty one" (El, a name of God), because he was God's representative and instrument of judgment
(Da 2:37, 38).
12

12. 从他的荫下——他们从前在其下居住作为隐密处的荫庇
(Eze 31:6)。
orihinal na Ingles
12. from his shadow--under which they had formerly dwelt as their covert
(Eze 31:6).
13

13. 飞鸟与走兽必在他倒下的树干上凌辱。
orihinal na Ingles
13. Birds and beasts shall insult over his fallen trunk.

14. 水旁的树——即丰足地得水供应的树：资源丰沛的列国。
以其高大自立——即以其高大为信靠：立在其上作为信心的根基。FAIRBAIRN 对希伯来文（Hebrew）的标音不同，将“他们的树”译作：“（使一切喝水之树都不得）靠自己（因其伟大）站立。”但通常的读法更佳，因为 Assyria 及其同盟各国都被比作坚固的树。“一切喝水的树”这一句标明这些树“以其高大”为信靠的根据，即它们有丰足的供应之源。MAURER 保留同希伯来文（Hebrew），译作“使他们的笃耨香树不得以其高大自立，一切（别的树）喝水的也都不得。”
到……下……地……坑中——
(Eze 32:18; Ps 82:7)。
orihinal na Ingles
14. trees by the waters--that is, that are plentifully supplied by the waters: nations abounding in resources.
stand up in their height--that is, trust in their height: stand upon it as their ground of confidence. FAIRBAIRN points the Hebrew differently, so as for "their trees," to translate, "(And that none that drink water may stand) on themselves, (because of their greatness)." But the usual reading is better, as Assyria and the confederate states throughout are compared to strong trees. The clause, "All that drink water," marks the ground of the trees' confidence "in their height," namely, that they have ample sources of supply. MAURER, retaining the same Hebrew, translates, "that neither their terebinth trees may stand up in their height, nor all (the other trees) that drink water."
to . . . nether . . . earth . . . pit--
(Eze 32:18; Ps 82:7).

15. 遮盖深渊——正如哀悼者以蒙头表示哀悼，“我使那滋润香柏树的深渊”为他披上哀悼的外衣。深渊的水就是亚述（Assyria）的属民列国
(Re 17:15)。
发昏——直译作“软弱”（本身）；比动词更有力。
orihinal na Ingles
15. covered the deep--as mourners cover their heads in token of mourning, "I made the deep that watered the cedar" to wrap itself in mourning for him. The waters of the deep are the tributary peoples of Assyria
(Re 17:15).
fainted--literally, were "faintness" (itself); more forcible than the verb.
16

16. 阴间——Sheol 或 Hades，即不可见的世界：等于说“我使他归于沉寂与遗忘”（比较
Isa 14:9-11)。
得安慰——因为像亚述（Assyrian）王这样的大君王竟被降到与他们同等的地步。苦难之人有同受苦难者为伴，对他们而言是一种安慰。
orihinal na Ingles
16. hell--Sheol or Hades, the unseen world: equivalent to, "I cast him into oblivion" (compare
Isa 14:9-11).
shall be comforted--because so great a king as the Assyrian is brought down to a level with them. It is a kind of consolation to the wretched to have companions in misery.
17

17. 他荫下所住的膀臂——指那些作他暴政帮凶或工具、因而享受他保护的人（例如叙利亚〔Syria〕及其邻邦）。这些人注定要与它同命运。比较同样的说法用于受其王保护而住的犹太人
(La 4:20)；
两者都是“以肉身为臂，心里偏离耶和华”
(Jer 17:5)。
orihinal na Ingles
17. his arm, that dwelt under his shadow--those who were the helpers or tool of his tyranny, and therefore enjoyed his protection (for example, Syria and her neighbors). These were sure to share her fate. Compare the same phrase as to the Jews living under the protection of their king
(La 4:20);
both alike "making flesh their arm, and in heart departing from the Lord"
(Jer 17:5).
18
Walang pamagat
简体中文
18. 将亚述（Assyria）的比喻性描述应用于埃及（Egypt）的平行情形。“论到亚述所说的一切，都要视为对你而说。你与谁相似呢？你岂不是与亚述相似吗？再无别人。”在伊甸（Eden）般的特权上因骄傲与罪而被妄用、如伊甸中初人之例、以毁灭告终的大教训，要在埃及重演。因永不改变的神，是以同样永不改变的原则治理世界。
你必与未受割礼的人同躺卧——割礼既曾是你所嘲笑的对象，你必躺在未受割礼的人中间，被他们的刀剑所杀 [GROTIUS]。 这是同类相报的报应
(Eze 28:10)。
这是法老——法老的结局必与我所述亚述的结局同样羞辱。“这”是指示之词，仿佛他用手指着那俯伏在地的法老，成了众人的奇观，正如在红海（Red Sea）边
(Ex 14:30, 31)。
orihinal na Ingles
18. Application of the parabolic description of Assyria to the parallel case of Egypt. "All that has been said of the Assyrian consider as said to thyself. To whom art thou so like, as thou art to the Assyrian? To none." The lesson on a gigantic scale of Eden-like privileges abused to pride and sin by the Assyrian, as in the case of the first man in Eden, ending in ruin, was to be repeated in Egypt's case. For the unchangeable God governs the world on the same unchangeable principles.
thou shall lie in . . . uncircumcised--As circumcision was an object of mocking to thee, thou shall lie in the midst of the uncircumcised, slain by their sword [GROTIUS]. Retribution in kind
(Eze 28:10).
This is Pharaoh--Pharaoh's end shall be the same humiliating one as I have depicted the Assyrian's to have been. "This" is demonstrative, as if he were pointing with the finger to Pharaoh lying prostrate, a spectacle to all, as on the shore of the Red Sea
(Ex 14:30, 31).
Eze 31:1-18。
以亚述的倾覆说明埃及的倾覆。
并非说埃及要像亚述一样彻底消亡，而是说它要像亚述一样，失去其在世界帝国中的显赫地位。
1. 第三个月——比
Eze 30:20
所传的预言迟两个月。
