Ezekiel 5:1
简体中文
英文原文
Translate it: take thee a sharp sword, for a barber's razor thou shalt take it thee. Even if the action were literal, the use of an actual sword would best enforce the symbolic meaning. The "head" represents the chief city, the "hair" the inhabitants - its ornament and glory - the "hair cut from the head" the exiles cast forth from their homes. It adds to the force of the representation that "to shave the head" was a token of mourning Job 1:20, and was forbidden to the priests Leviticus 21:5. Thus, in many ways, this action of Ezekiel "the priest" is significant of calamity and ruin. The sword indicates the avenging power; the shaving of the head the removal of grace and glory; the scales and weights the determination of divine justice. Compare Zechariah 13:8-9.

Ezekiel 5:2
简体中文
「在城中三分之一当火中焚烧」，代表围城期间在城内灭亡的人；「三分之一在城的四周用刀击杀」，代表同一时期在城外被杀的人；「三分之一任风分散」，代表围城之后分散在列国之地的人。
在城中 - 先知身在被掳之地，却要在耶路撒冷城中行这事。他的行动既是理想性的，便恰当地置于预言所关涉的地点。
困城的日子满了 - 即「那围城之表像的日子满了」。
英文原文
"The third part burnt in the midst of the city" represents those who perished within the city during the siege; "the third part smitten about it" (the city) "with" the sword, those who were killed about the city during the same period: "the third part scattered to the wind" those who after the siege were dispersed in foreign lands.
In the midst of the city - The prophet is in exile, and is to do this in the midst of Jerusalem. His action being ideal is fitly assigned to the place which the prophecy concerns.
When the days of the siege are fulfilled - i. e., "when the days of the figurative representation of the siege are fulfilled."

Ezekiel 5:3
简体中文
从那三分之一中,还要取出少数包在衣襟里（代表仍要留在故土的人）;然而连这少数中,也有一部分要被投于火中。耶路撒冷毁灭之后留下之人的命运正是如此（Jeremiah 40;Jeremiah 41）。这整段预言是一篇定罪的宣告。
英文原文
Of the third part a few are yet to be taken and kept in the fold of the garment (representing those still to remain in their native land), and yet even of those few some are to be cast into the fire. Such was the fate of those left behind after the destruction of Jerusalem Jeremiah 40; 41. The whole prophecy is one of denunciation.

Ezekiel 5:4
简体中文
从其中 - 或作「从那里」，即从火当中出来的意思。应省略「因为」一语。
英文原文
Thereof - Or, from thence, out of the midst of the fire. Omit "For."

Ezekiel 5:5
简体中文
我曾将它安置在列邦之中 - 各国把自己最崇敬的圣所视为大地的中心，这并不罕见。就圣地而言，这既是自然的，也是恰当的。南方的埃及、北方的亚兰（叙利亚）、东方的亚述、西方大海中外邦人的众海岛，对犹太人来说，都是他们的地处于列邦之中这一中心位置的证明（比较 Jeremiah 3:19）。赐给选民居住之所，起初适合将他们与万民分别出来；后来适合作所罗门广大权势与商贸的中枢；及至他们从邻国学会偶像崇拜，这中心位置便成了他们受罚的根源。圣地介于埃及与亚述两大帝国之间，成为两强争夺的战场，并随着两强一时的此消彼长，轮番遭受两者的苦害。
英文原文
I have set it in the midst of the nations - It was not unusual for nations to regard the sanctuary, which they most revered, as the center of the earth. In the case of the holy land this was both natural and appropriate. Egypt to the south, Syria to the north, Assyria to the east and the Isles of the Gentiles in the Great Sea to the west, were to the Jew proofs of the central position of his land in the midst of the nations (compare Jeremiah 3:19). The habitation assigned to the chosen people was suitable at the first for separating them from the nations; then for the seat of the vast dominion and commerce of Solomon; then, when they learned from their neighbors idol-worship, their central position was the source of their punishment. Midway between the mighty empires of Egypt and Assyria the holy land became a battlefield for the two powers, and suffered alternately from each as for the time the one or the other became predominant.

Ezekiel 5:6
简体中文
他们 - 指耶路撒冷的居民。
英文原文
They - The inhabitants of Jerusalem.
7
Ezekiel 5:7
简体中文
因为你们增多 - 有人倾向于译作「因为你们喧嚷暴乱」。
也没有照列国的典章（或作规例）行 - 这责备的意思是：以色列人对他们独一真神的忠信，甚至比不上列国对假神的忠信（参 2 Kings 17:33）。
英文原文
Because ye multiplied - Some prefer: Because ye have raged tumultuously."
Neither have done according to the judgments - (or, ordinances) of the nations The reproach is that the Israelites have not even been as faithful to their one true God as the nations have been to their false gods (compare 2 Kings 17:33).
8
Ezekiel 5:8
简体中文
施行审判 - 如同向埃及的假神施行审判一样（Exodus 12:12；Numbers 33:4）。
英文原文
Execute judgments - As upon the false gods of Egypt Exodus 12:12; Numbers 33:4.

Ezekiel 5:9
简体中文
可与 Matthew 24:21 比较。巴比伦之灾被罗马的围攻所超越，而罗马的围攻又不过是末日那更可怕毁灭的预影。
英文原文
Compare Matthew 24:21. The calamities of the Babylonian were surpassed by the Roman siege, and these again were but a foreshadowing of still more terrible destruction at the last day.

Ezekiel 5:12
简体中文
「饥荒、瘟疫」与「刀剑」这些灾罚（Ezekiel 5:12-17），正是随后耶路撒冷被围时实际伴随的灾祸（Jeremiah 15:2 及以下）。「在他们中间拔出刀来追赶」表明神的怒气甚至要追到他们被掳之地（参 Jeremiah 42:19-22；Leviticus 26:25），而巴比伦围城之恐怖，不过是这民族苦难的开端。
英文原文
The judgments Ezekiel 5:12-17 of "famine, pestilence," and the "sword," were precisely those which attended the coming siege of Jerusalem (Jeremiah 15:2 ff). The "drawing out the sword after them" indicates that the anger of God will follow them even to the land of their exile (compare Jeremiah 42:19-22; Leviticus 26:25), and that the horrors of the Babylonian siege are but the beginning of the sorrows of the nation.

Ezekiel 5:13
简体中文
得了安慰 - 意为「自我安慰」并「在刑罚中感到满足」；故引申为「为自己复仇」。
忿怒要「安息」在他们身上，即停留不去。「成就」神的怒气，不是指使之结束的「完结」，而是指将它完全施行出来。
英文原文
Comforted - In the sense of "consoling oneself" and "feeling satisfaction in punishing;" hence, to "avenge oneself."
The fury is to "rest" upon them, abide, so as not to pass away. The "accomplishment" of the divine anger is not the "completion" in the sense of bringing it to a close, but in the sense of carrying it out to the full.
当译作：「你拿一把快刀，当作剃头刀」。这行动即使按字义执行，使用一把真正的刀也最能加强其象征意义。「头」代表首城；「头发」代表居民——她的装饰与荣耀；「从头上剃下的头发」代表被逐出家园的被掳者。「剃头」乃是哀恸的记号（Job 1:20），又是祭司所不可行的（Leviticus 21:5），这更增添了这表像的力量。因此，「祭司」以西结的这一行动，在多方面都象征灾祸与毁灭。刀表明报应的权能；剃头表明恩惠与荣耀的被除去；天平与法码表明神圣公义所定的裁断。比较 Zechariah 13:8-9。
