窑匠,专门做瓦烧瓦的,人们常常用“像个烧窑的”来形容一个人穿的肮脏。由此可见,烧窑的人身上沾着泥巴,或布满灰尘和烟尘,蓬头垢脸,给人不干净的感觉。其实,这一职业在上个世纪还算得上一种不错的手艺。那时,乡下农村住的都是土砖砌墙、黑瓦盖顶的土坯房,人们翻旧屋或盖新房,都离不开砖瓦,因此,不管哪家哪户隔个两三年都得请窑匠烧砖烧瓦。
我就下到窑匠的家里去,正遇他转轮作器皿。
Then I went down to the potter's house, and, behold, he wrought a work on the wheels.
你起来,下到窑匠的家里去,我在那里要使你听我的话。
Arise, and go down to the potter's house, and there I will cause thee to hear my words.
锡安宝贵的众子好比精金,现在何竟算为窑匠手所作的瓦瓶。
The precious sons of Zion, comparable to fine gold, how are they esteemed as earthen pitchers, the work of the hands of the potter!
