Eze 19:1-14.
简体中文
英語原文
Eze 19:1-14.
ELEGY OVER THE FALL OF DAVID'S HOUSE.
There is a tacit antithesis between this lamentation and that of the Jews for their own miseries, into the causes of which, however, they did not inquire.
1. princes of Israel--that is, Judah, whose "princes" alone were recognized by prophecy; those of the ten tribes were, in respect to the theocracy, usurpers.

2. 你的母亲——约雅斤的母亲，是在被掳中与以西结同在的大卫后裔的代表。“母亲”即犹大：“狮子”，因她猛于捕捉猎物
(Eze 19:3)，
指她外邦化的行事。耶路撒冷曾被称为亚利伊勒（神的狮子），是就好的意义而言
(Isa 29:1)；
犹大也被称为“小狮子……狮子……老狮子”
(Ge 49:9)，
本段正是暗指此处，以及
Nu 23:24; 24:9。
在……少壮狮子中……养大——她自己曾“卧”在狮子中间，即与周围外邦的败坏有交往，又以同样的方式养育幼小的王室后裔：完全从亚伯拉罕的血统堕落了。
躺卧——或作“伏卧”，适用于狮子，阿拉伯语中狮子的名字正意为“伏卧者”。
英語原文
2. thy mother--the mother of Jehoiachin, the representative of David's line in exile with Ezekiel. The "mother" is Judea: "a lioness," as being fierce in catching prey
(Eze 19:3),
referring to her heathenish practices. Jerusalem was called Ariel (the lion of God) in a good sense
(Isa 29:1);
and Judah "a lion's whelp . . . a lion . . . an old lion"
(Ge 49:9),
to which, as also to
Nu 23:24; 24:9,
this passage alludes.
nourished . . . among young lions--She herself had "lain" among lions, that is, had intercourse with the corruptions of the surrounding heathen and had brought up the royal young ones similarly: utterly degenerate from the stock of Abraham.
Lay down--or "couched," is appropriate to the lion, the Arab name of which means "the coucher."

3. 小狮子——约西亚的儿子约哈斯，被法老尼哥从利比拉掳到埃及
(2Ki 23:33)。
英語原文
3. young lion--Jehoahaz, son of Josiah, carried captive from Riblah to Egypt by Pharaoh-necho
(2Ki 23:33).

4. 列国——指埃及，就约哈斯的事而言；他大概因试图袭击埃及边境城邑以为父报仇而激怒了法老
(2Ki 23:29, 30)。
坑中——取自捕兽所用之陷阱的意象
(Jer 22:11, 12)。
钩子——或作钩，系在野兽鼻中的钩子（见
Eze 19:9
的讲解）。
英語原文
4. The nations--Egypt, in the case of Jehoahaz, who probably provoked Pharaoh by trying to avenge the death of his father by assailing the bordering cities of Egypt
(2Ki 23:29, 30).
in their pit--image from the pitfalls used for catching wild beasts
(Jer 22:11, 12).
chains--or hooks, which were fastened in the noses of wild beasts (see on
Eze 19:9).

5. 见自己等候，指望落了空——即她长久等待的盼望落了空，因为约哈斯并未从埃及归回给她。
又取了她的一个小狮子——约雅斤之兄、约哈斯的兄弟约雅敬，他照犹大的心愿被法老立为王
(2Ki 23:34)。
英語原文
5. saw that she had waited, and her hope was lost--that is, that her long-waited-for hope was disappointed, Jehoahaz not being restored to her from Egypt.
she took another of her whelps--Jehoiakim, brother of Jehoahaz, who was placed on the throne by Pharaoh
(2Ki 23:34),
according to the wish of Judah.

6. 在狮子中走来走去——效法周围列王的肆无忌惮与暴虐
(Jer 22:13-17)。
抓……掠物——行恶，借欺压以纵其私欲
(2Ki 23:37)。
英語原文
6. went up and down among the lions--imitated the recklessness and tyranny of the surrounding kings
(Jer 22:13-17).
catch . . . prey--to do evil, gratifying his lusts by oppression
(2Ki 23:37).

7. 知道……荒凉的宫殿——即把他们的宫殿据为己有，随后加以“毁坏”。希伯来文（Hebrew）直译作“寡妇”；故作寡居的宫殿
(Isa 13:22)。
VATABLUS（FAIRBAIRN 从之）解释作：“他与他所吞吃之人的寡妇同房”（ carnally ）
(Eze 19:6)。
但如此一来，比喻与字面的实情便混在一起：狮子被描写为与寡妇同房。然而实情常常在别处如此穿透比喻的幔子。
其中所充满的——即其中的一切；其中的居民。
英語原文
7. knew . . . desolate palaces--that is, claimed as his own their palaces, which he then proceeded to "desolate." The Hebrew, literally "widows"; hence widowed palaces
(Isa 13:22).
VATABLUS (whom FAIRBAIRN follows) explains it, "He knew (carnally) the widows of those whom he devoured"
(Eze 19:6).
But thus the metaphor and the literal reality would be blended: the lion being represented as knowing widows. The reality, however, often elsewhere thus breaks through the veil.
fulness thereof--all that it contained; its inhabitants.

9. 用链子——
(2Ch 36:6; Jer 22:18)。
边注（Margin），“钩子”；或许指常穿过野兽鼻中的钩子；同样也穿过俘虏的鼻中，如 Assyrian 雕刻所示（见
Eze 19:4)。
声音——即他的咆哮。
在山上不再被听见——延续狮子的比喻，狮子在山上咆哮，使其他一切野兽惊惶。这位君王虽国势衰弱却毫不收敛的狂傲，如今必要止息。
英語原文
9. in chains--
(2Ch 36:6; Jer 22:18).
Margin, "hooks"; perhaps referring to the hook often passed through the nose of beasts; so, too, through that of captives, as seen in the Assyrian sculptures (see on
Eze 19:4).
voice--that is, his roaring.
no more be heard upon the mountains--carrying on the metaphor of the lion, whose roaring on the mountains frightens all the other beasts. The insolence of the prince, not at all abated though his kingdom was impaired, was now to cease.

10. 此处换了新比喻，取自结果子树木之首的葡萄树，正如狮子为猛兽之首（见
Eze 17:6)。
在你的血中——“当你还在血中时被栽种”，即在你极幼小之时；如
Eze 16:6，
当你刚出母胎、血尚未洗净之时。Jews 从起初就被栽于 Canaan，要在那里扎根[CALVIN]。GROTIUS 如*边注（Margin）*译作“在你安静之时”，即 Judah 尚未陷入现今患难的时期。*英文译本（English Version）*更佳。GLASSIUS 保留比喻而作了好的解释（CALVIN 的解释破坏了比喻）：“在你葡萄的血中”，即在它全盛的力量中，因红酒是葡萄之力。
Ge 49:11
显然在此被暗指。
多水——水源充足的 Canaan 地
(De 8:7-9)。
英語原文
10. A new metaphor taken from the vine, the chief of the fruit-bearing trees, as the lion is of the beasts of prey (see
Eze 17:6).
in thy blood--"planted when thou wast in thy blood," that is, in thy very infancy; as in
Eze 16:6,
when thou hadst just come from the womb, and hadst not yet the blood washed from thee. The Jews from the first were planted in Canaan to take root there [CALVIN]. GROTIUS translates as the Margin, "in thy quietness," that is, in the period when Judah had not yet fallen into her present troubles. English Version is better. GLASSIUS explains it well, retaining the metaphor, which CALVIN'S explanation breaks, "in the blood of thy grapes," that is, in her full strength, as the red wine is the strength of the grape.
Ge 49:11
is evidently alluded to.
many waters--the well-watered land of Canaan
(De 8:7-9).

11. 坚固的枝干——即 David 王室的诸王。葡萄树如许多权杖般发出枝条，并不像许多葡萄那样低伏于地，而是被引导攀附于树或墙上。提及他们从前的王室尊荣，与她现今沦落的光景形成可悲的对比，必使 Jews 想起他们因此招致如此审判的罪。
高大——
(Da 4:11)。
在茂密的枝条中——即树的主干或中心柱在它自己环绕的枝条或旁枝中长至最高。象征百姓的人数与资源。HENGSTENBERG 译作“在云中”。但
Eze 31:3, 10, 14
支持英文译本（English Version）。
英語原文
11. strong rods--princes of the royal house of David. The vine shot forth her branches like so many scepters, not creeping lowly on the ground like many vines, but trained aloft on a tree or wall. The mention of their former royal dignity, contrasting sadly with her present sunken state, would remind the Jews of their sins whereby they had incurred such judgments.
stature--
(Da 4:11).
among the thick branches--that is, the central stock or trunk of the tree shot up highest "among its own branches" or offshoots, surrounding it. Emblematic of the numbers and resources of the people. HENGSTENBERG translates, "among the clouds." But
Eze 31:3, 10, 14,
supports English Version.

12. 拔出——并非渐渐枯萎。国势的骤然倾覆，为要唤醒 Jews 从麻木中看见神在国难中的手。
东风——（见

英語原文
12. plucked up--not gradually withered. The sudden upturning of the state was designed to awaken the Jews out of their torpor to see the hand of God in the national judgment.

13. 栽种——即移栽。葡萄虽就整体国民而言已经“枯干”，但就神对 Babylon 余民的怜悯而言，却被说成是“移栽”的。
干旱……地——Chaldea 水源充足、土地肥沃；但所指的不是那地，而是被掳之民的光景。
英語原文
13. planted--that is, transplanted. Though already "dried up" in regard to the nation generally, the vine is said to be "transplanted" as regards God's mercy to the remnant in Babylon.
dry . . . ground--Chaldea was well-watered and fertile; but it is the condition of the captive people, not that of the land, which is referred to.

14. 火……从她枝干中的一根发出来——犹太人的灾祸当归因于他们自己，过于 Chaldeans；“从枝干中发出来的火”是神的烈怒，因 Zedekiah 的背誓而点燃
(Eze 17:18)。
“耶和华的怒气”是 Zedekiah 被允许背叛 Babylon 的原因
(2Ki 24:20；
比较
Jud 9:15)，
以此将 Nebuchadnezzar 引来攻击耶路撒冷。
没有坚固的枝干……掌权的权杖——David 家不再有君王治理这国。至少直到“主从 Zion 发出能力的杖”（“弥赛亚”，
Ps 110:2; Isa 11:1），
先作属灵的王，日后作字面的王。
是……并要作为哀歌——这篇哀歌的一部分（关于 Jehoahaz 与 Jehoiakim）已是成就了的历史；另一部分（关于 Zedekiah）尚待应验；或作：这预言既已成为哀歌的题目，也必作为远方后裔的哀歌。
英語原文
14. fire . . . out of a rod of her branches--The Jews' disaster was to be ascribed, not so much to the Chaldeans as to themselves; the "fire out of the rod" is God's wrath kindled by the perjury of Zedekiah
(Eze 17:18).
"The anger of the Lord" against Judah is specified as the cause why Zedekiah was permitted to rebel against Babylon
(2Ki 24:20;
compare
Jud 9:15),
thus bringing Nebuchadnezzar against Jerusalem.
no strong rod . . . sceptre to rule--No more kings of David's stock are now to rule the nation. Not at least until "the Lord shall send the rod of His strength ("Messiah,"
Ps 110:2; Isa 11:1)
out of Zion," to reign first as a spiritual, then hereafter as a literal king.
is . . . and shall be for a lamentation--Part of the lamentation (that as to Jehoahaz and Jehoiakim) was matter of history as already accomplished; part (as to Zedekiah) was yet to be fulfilled; or, this prophecy both is a subject for lamentation, and shall be so to distant posterity.
Eze 19:1-14。
为大卫家衰落所作的挽歌。
这首哀歌与犹太人为自己苦难所作的哀哭之间，有一种含蓄的对比；然而他们并不查究自己苦难的缘由。
1. 以色列的王——即犹大；因为唯独犹大的“王”为先知所承认；至于十支派的王，就神权政治而言，都是篡位者。
