< Jeremiah 17 >
1 The sin of Judah is written with a pen of iron, and with the point of a diamond. It is engraved upon the tablet of their heart, and upon the horns of your altars,
ユダの罪は鐵の筆金剛石の尖をもてしるされその心の碑と汝らの祭壇の角に鐫らるるなり
2 while their sons remember their altars and their Asherim by the green trees upon the high hills.
彼らはその子女をおもふが如くに靑木の下と高岡のうへなるその祭壇とアシラをおもふ
3 O my mountain in the field, I will give thy substance and all thy treasures for a spoil, and thy high places, because of sin, throughout all thy borders.
われ野に在る我山と汝の資產と汝のもろもろの財產および汝の四方の境の内なる汝の罪を犯せる崇邱を擄掠物とならしめん
4 And thou, even of thyself, shall discontinue from thy heritage that I gave thee, and I will cause thee to serve thine enemies in the land which thou know not. For ye have kindled a fire in my anger which shall burn forever.
わが汝にあたへし產業より汝手をはなさん又われ汝をして汝の識ざる地に於て汝の敵につかへしめんそは汝ら我をいからせて限なく燃る火を發したればなり
5 Thus says Jehovah: Cursed is the man who trusts in man, and makes flesh his arm, and whose heart departs from Jehovah.
ヱホバかくいひたまふおほよそ人を恃み肉をその臂とし心にヱホバを離るる人は詛るべし
6 For he shall be like the heath in the desert, and shall not see when good comes, but shall inhabit the parched places in the wilderness, a salt land and not inhabited.
彼は荒野に棄られたる者のごとくならん彼は善事のきたるをみず荒野の燥きたる處鹽あるところ人の住ざる地に居らん
7 Blessed is the man who trusts in Jehovah, and whose trust Jehovah is.
おほよそヱホバをたのみヱホバを其恃とする人は福なり
8 For he shall be as a tree planted by the waters, that spreads out its roots by the river, and shall not fear when heat comes, but its leaf shall be green, and shall not be worried in the year of drought, nor shall cease from yielding fruit.
彼は水の旁に植たる樹の如くならん其根を河にのべ炎熱きたるも恐るるところなしその葉は靑く亢旱の年にも憂へずして絕ず果を結ぶべし
9 The heart is deceitful above all things, and it is exceedingly corrupt. Who can know it?
心は萬物よりも僞る者にして甚だ惡し誰かこれを知るをえんや
10 I, Jehovah, search the mind. I try the heart, even to give every man according to his ways, according to the fruit of his doings.
われヱホバは心腹を察り腎腸を試みおのおのに其途に順ひその行爲の果によりて報ゆべし
11 As the partridge that sits on eggs which she has not laid, so is he who gets riches, and not by right. In the midst of his days they shall leave him, and at his end he shall be a fool.
鷓鴣のおのれの生ざる卵をいだくが如く不義をもて財を獲る者あり其人は命の半にてこれに離れその終に愚なる者とならん
12 A glorious throne, set on high from the beginning, is the place of our sanctuary.
榮の位よ原始より高き者わが聖所たる者
13 O Jehovah, the hope of Israel, all who forsake thee shall be put to shame. Those who depart from me shall be written in the earth, because they have forsaken Jehovah, the fountain of living waters.
イスラエルの望なるヱホバよ凡て汝を離るる者は辱められん我を棄る者は土に錄されん此はいける水の源なるヱホバを離るるによる
14 Heal me, O Jehovah, and I shall be healed. Save me, and I shall be saved, for thou are my praise.
ヱホバよ我を醫し給へ然らばわれ愈んわれを救ひたまへさらば我救はれん汝はわが頌るものなり
15 Behold, they say to me, Where is the word of Jehovah? Let it come now.
彼ら我にいふヱホバの言は何にあるやいま之をのぞましめよと
16 As for me, I have not hastened from being a shepherd after thee, nor have I desired the woeful day. Thou know. That which came out of my lips was before thy face.
われ牧者の職を退かずして汝にしたがひ又禍の日を願はざりき汝これを知りたまふ我唇よりいづる者は汝の面の前にあり
17 Be not a terror to me. Thou are my refuge in the day of evil.
汝我を懼れしむる者となり給ふ勿れ禍の時に汝は我避場なり
18 Let them be put to shame who persecute me, but let me not be put to shame. Let them be dismayed, but let me not be dismayed. Bring upon them the day of evil, and destroy them with double destruction.
我を攻る者を辱しめ給へ我を辱しむるなかれ彼らを怖れしめよ我を怖れしめ給ふなかれ禍の日を彼らに來らしめ滅亡を倍して之を滅し給へ
19 Thus Jehovah said to me, Go, and stand in the gate of the sons of the people, by which the kings of Judah come in, and by which they go out, and in all the gates of Jerusalem.
ヱホバ我にかくいひ給へり汝ゆきてユダの王等の出入する民の門及びヱルサレムの諸の門に立て
20 And say to them, Hear ye the word of Jehovah, ye kings of Judah, and all Judah, and all the inhabitants of Jerusalem, who enter in by these gates.
彼らにいへ此門より入る所のユダの王等とユダのすべての民とヱルサレムに住るすべての者よ汝らヱホバの言をきけ
21 Thus says Jehovah: Take heed to yourselves, and bear no burden on the sabbath day, nor bring it in by the gates of Jerusalem.
ヱホバかくいひたまふ汝ら自ら愼め安息日に荷をたづさへてヱルサレムの門にいる勿れ
22 Neither carry forth a burden out of your houses on the sabbath day, nor do ye any work. But hallow ye the sabbath day, as I commanded your fathers.
また安息日に汝らの家より荷を出す勿れ諸の工作をなす勿れ我汝らの先祖に命ぜしごとく安息日を聖くせよ
23 But they hearkened not, nor inclined their ear, but made their neck stiff, that they might not hear, and might not receive instruction.
されど彼らは遵はず耳を傾けずまたその項を強くして聽ず訓をうけざるなり
24 And it shall come to pass, if ye diligently hearken to me, says Jehovah, to bring in no burden through the gates of this city on the sabbath day, but to hallow the sabbath day, to do no work in it,
ヱホバいひ給ふ汝らもし謹愼て我にきき安息日に荷をたづさへてこの邑の門にいらず安息日を聖くなして諸の工作をなさずば
25 then there shall enter in by the gates of this city kings and rulers sitting upon the throne of David, riding in chariots and on horses, they, and their rulers, the men of Judah, and the inhabitants of Jerusalem. And this city shall remain forever.
ダビデの位に坐する王等牧伯たちユダの民ヱルサレムに住る者車と馬に乗てこの邑の門よりいることをえんまた此邑には限なく人すまはん
26 And they shall come from the cities of Judah, and from the places round about Jerusalem, and from the land of Benjamin, and from the lowland, and from the hill-country, and from the South, bringing burnt offerings, and sacrifices, and meal offerings, and frankincense, and bringing things of thanksgiving, to the house of Jehovah.
また人々ユダの邑とヱルサレムの四周およびベニヤミンの地と平地と山と南の方よりきたり燔祭 犠牲 素祭 馨香 謝祭を携へてヱホバの室にいらん
27 But if ye will not hearken to me to hallow the sabbath day, and not to bear a burden and enter in at the gates of Jerusalem on the sabbath day, then I will kindle a fire in the gates of it, and it shall devour the palaces of Jerusalem, and it shall not be quenched.
されど汝らもし我に聽ずして安息日を聖くせず安息日に荷をたづさへてヱルサレムの門にいらばわれ火をその門の内に燃してヱルサレムの殿舍を燬んその火は滅ざるべし
