Zephaniah 1
1 The word of Jehovah which came to Zephaniah the son of Cushi, the son of Gedaliah, the son of Amariah, the son of Hezekiah, in the days of Josiah the son of Amon, king of Judah.
アモンの子ユダの王ヨシヤの世にゼパニヤに臨めるヱホバの言 ゼパニヤはクシの子 クシはゲダリアの子 ゲダリアはアマリヤの子 アマリヤはヒゼキヤの子なり
2 I will utterly consume all things from off the face of the ground, says Jehovah.
ヱホバ言たまふ われ地の面よりすべての物をはらひのぞかん
3 I will consume man and beast. I will consume the birds of the heavens, and the fishes of the sea, and the stumbling blocks with the wicked. And I will cut off man from off the face of the ground, says Jehovah.
われ人と獣畜をほろぼし空の鳥 海の魚および躓礙になる者と惡人とを滅さん 我かならず地の面より人をほろぼし絶ん ヱホバこれを言ふ
4 And I will stretch out my hand upon Judah, and upon all the inhabitants of Jerusalem. And I will cut off the remnant of Baal from this place, and the name of the Chemarim with the priests,
我ユダとエルサレムの一切の居民との上に手を伸ん 我 この處よりかの漏のこれるバアルを絶ちケマリムの名を祭司と與に絶ち
5 and those who worship the host of heaven upon the housetops, and those who worship, who swear to Jehovah and swear by Malcam,
また屋上にて天の衆軍を拜む者ヱホバに誓を立てて拜みながらも亦おのれの王を指て誓ふことをする者
6 and those who are turned back from following Jehovah, and those who have not sought Jehovah, nor inquired after him.
ヱホバに悖り離るる者ヱホバを求めず尋ねざる者を絶ん
7 Hold thy peace at the presence of the lord Jehovah, for the day of Jehovah is at hand. For Jehovah has prepared a sacrifice. He has consecrated his guests.
汝 主ヱホバの前に默せよ そはヱホバの日近づきヱホバすでに犠牲を備へその招くべき者をさだめ給ひたればなり
8 And it shall come to pass in the day of Jehovah's sacrifice, that I will punish the rulers, and the king's sons, and all such as are clothed with foreign apparel.
ヱホバの犠牲の日に我もろもろの牧伯と王の子等および凡て異邦の衣服を着る者を罰すべし
9 And in that day I will punish all those who leap over the threshold, who fill their master's house with violence and deceit.
その日には我また凡て閾をとびこえ強暴と詭譎をもて獲たる物をおのが主の家に滿す者等を罰せん
10 And in that day, says Jehovah, there shall be the noise of a cry from the fish gate, and a wailing from the second quarter, and a great crashing from the hills.
ヱホバ曰たまはく その日には魚の門より號呼の聲おこり下邑より喚く聲おこり山々より大なる敗壞おこらん
11 Wail, ye inhabitants of Maktesh, for all the people of Canaan are undone. All those who were laden with silver are cut off.
マクテシの民よ汝ら叫べ 其は商賣する民 悉くほろび銀を擔ふ者 悉く絶たればなり
12 And it shall come to pass at that time, that I will search Jerusalem with lamps, and I will punish the men who are settled on their lees, who say in their heart, Jehovah will not do good, nor will he do evil.
その時はわれ燈をもちてエルサレムの中を尋ねん 而して滓の上に居着て心の中にヱホバは福をもなさず災をもなさずといふものを罰すべし
13 And their wealth shall become a spoil, and their houses a desolation. Yea, they shall build houses, but shall not inhabit them, and they shall plant vineyards, but shall not drink the wine of it.
かれらの財寳は掠められ彼らの家は荒果ん かれら家を造るともその中に住ことを得ず 葡萄を植るともその葡萄酒を飮ことを得ざるべし
14 The great day of Jehovah is near. It is near and hastens greatly, the voice of the day of Jehovah. The mighty man cries there bitterly.
ヱホバの大なる日近づけり 近づきて速かに來る 聽よ是ヱホバの日なるぞ 彼處に勇士のいたく叫ぶあり
15 That day is a day of wrath, a day of trouble and distress, a day of wasteness and desolation, a day of darkness and gloominess, a day of clouds and thick darkness,
その日は忿怒の日 患難および痛苦の日 荒かつ亡ぶるの日 黑暗またをぐらき日 濃き雲および黑雲の日
16 a day of the trumpet and alarm, against the fortified cities, and against the high battlements.
箛をふき鯨聲をつくり堅き城を攻め高き櫓を攻るの日なり
17 And I will bring distress upon men, that they shall walk like blind men, because they have sinned against Jehovah, and their blood shall be poured out as dust, and their flesh as dung.
われ人々に患難を蒙らせて盲者のごとくに惑ひあるかしめん 彼らヱホバにむかひて罪を犯したればなり 彼らの血は流されて塵のごとくになり彼らの肉は捨られて糞土のごとくなるべし
18 Neither their silver nor their gold shall be able to deliver them in the day of Jehovah's wrath, but the whole land shall be devoured by the fire of his jealousy. For he will make an end, yea, a terrible end, of all those who dwell in the land.
かれらの銀も金もヱホバの烈き怒の日には彼らを救ふことあたはず 全地その嫉妬の火に呑るべし 即ちヱホバ地の民をことごとく滅したまはん 其事まことに速なるべし
