Ezekiel 26
1 In the eleventh year, in the first of the month, the LORD’s word came to me, saying,
第十一年の第一日に主の言葉がわたしに臨んだ、
2 “Son of man, because Tyre has said against Jerusalem, ‘Aha! She is broken! She who was the gateway of the peoples has been returned to me. I will be replenished, now that she is laid waste;’
「人の子よ、ツロはエルサレムについて言った、『ああ、それはよい気味である。もろもろの民の門は破れて、わたしに開かれた。わたしは豊かになり、彼は破れはてた』と。
3 therefore the Lord GOD says, ‘Behold, I am against you, Tyre, and will cause many nations to come up against you, as the sea causes its waves to come up.
それゆえ、主なる神はこう言われる、ツロよ、わたしはあなたを攻め、海がその波を起すように、わたしは多くの国民を、あなたに攻めこさせる。
4 They will destroy the walls of Tyre, and break down her towers. I will also scrape her dust from her, and make her a bare rock.
彼らはツロの城壁をこわし、そのやぐらを倒す。わたしはその土を払い去って、裸の岩にする。
5 She will be a place for the spreading of nets in the middle of the sea; for I have spoken it,’ says the Lord GOD. ‘She will become plunder for the nations.
ツロは海の中にあって、網をはる場所になる。これはわたしが言ったのであると、主なる神は言われる。ツロは、もろもろの民にかすめられ、
6 Her daughters who are in the field will be slain with the sword. Then they will know that I am the LORD.’
その本土におる娘たちは、つるぎで殺される。そして彼らは、わたしが主であることを知るようになる。
7 “For the Lord GOD says: ‘Behold, I will bring on Tyre Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon, king of kings, from the north, with horses, with chariots, with horsemen, and an army with many people.
主なる神はこう言われる、見よ、わたしは王の王なるバビロンの王ネブカデレザルに、馬、戦車、騎兵、および多くの軍勢をひきいて、北からツロに攻めこさせる。
8 He will kill your daughters in the field with the sword. He will make forts against you, cast up a mound against you, and raise up the buckler against you.
彼は本土におるあなたの娘たちを、つるぎで殺し、あなたに向かって雲悌を建て、塁を築き、盾を備え、
9 He will set his battering engines against your walls, and with his axes he will break down your towers.
城くずしをあなたの城壁に向け、おのであなたのやぐらを打ち砕く。
10 By reason of the abundance of his horses, their dust will cover you. Your walls will shake at the noise of the horsemen, of the wagons, and of the chariots, when he enters into your gates, as men enter into a city which is broken open.
その多くの馬の土煙は、あなたをおおう。人が破れた町にはいるように、彼があなたの門にはいる時、騎兵と貨車と戦車の響きによって、あなたの石がきはゆるぐ。
11 He will tread down all your streets with the hoofs of his horses. He will kill your people with the sword. The pillars of your strength will go down to the ground.
彼はその馬のひずめで、あなたのすべてのちまたを踏みあらし、つるぎであなたの民を殺す。あなたの力強い柱は地に倒れる。
12 They will make a plunder of your riches and make a prey of your merchandise. They will break down your walls and destroy your pleasant houses. They will lay your stones, your timber, and your dust in the middle of the waters.
彼らはあなたの財宝を奪い、商品をかすめ、城壁をくずし、楽しい家をこわし、石と木と土とを水の中に投げ込む。
13 I will cause the noise of your songs to cease. The sound of your harps will not be heard any more.
わたしはあなたの歌の声をとどめる。琴の音はもはや聞えなくなる。
14 I will make you a bare rock. You will be a place for the spreading of nets. You will be built no more; for I the LORD have spoken it,’ says the Lord GOD.
わたしはあなたを裸の岩にする。あなたは網を張る場所となり、再び建てられることはない。主なるわたしがこれを言ったと、主なる神は言われる。
15 “The Lord GOD says to Tyre: ‘Will not the islands shake at the sound of your fall, when the wounded groan, when the slaughter is made within you?
主なる神はツロにこう言われる、海沿いの国々はあなたの倒れる響き、手負いのうめき、あなたのうちの殺人のゆえに、身震いしないであろうか。
16 Then all the princes of the sea will come down from their thrones, and lay aside their robes, and strip off their embroidered garments. They will clothe themselves with trembling. They will sit on the ground, and will tremble every moment, and be astonished at you.
その時、海の君たちは皆その位からおり、朝服を脱ぎ、縫い取りの衣服を取り去り、恐れを身にまとい、地に座して、いたく恐れ、あなたの事を驚き、
17 They will take up a lamentation over you, and tell you, “How you are destroyed, who were inhabited by seafaring men, the renowned city, who was strong in the sea, she and her inhabitants, who caused their terror to be on all who lived there!”
あなたのために悲しみの歌をのべて言う、『あなたは海にあって、強い誉ある町、本土に恐れを与えていたあなたも、その住民も、海から消え去った。
18 Now the islands will tremble in the day of your fall. Yes, the islands that are in the sea will be dismayed at your departure.’
島々はあなたの倒れる日に身震いする。海の島々はあなたの去り行くことを見て驚く』。
19 “For the Lord GOD says: ‘When I make you a desolate city, like the cities that are not inhabited, when I bring up the deep on you, and the great waters cover you,
主なる神はこう言われる、わたしはあなたを、荒れた町となし、住む者のない町のようにし、淵をあなたに向かってわきあがらせ、大水にあなたをおおわせる時、
20 then I will bring you down with those who descend into the pit, to the people of old time, and will make you dwell in the lower parts of the earth, in the places that are desolate of old, with those who go down to the pit, that you be not inhabited; and I will set glory in the land of the living.
あなたを穴に下る者どもと共に、昔の民の所に下し、穴に下る者と共に下の国に、昔のままの荒れ跡の中に、あなたを住ませる。それゆえ、あなたは人の住む所とならず、また生ある者の地に所を得ない。
21 I will make you a terror, and you will no more have any being. Though you are sought for, yet you will never be found again,’ says the Lord GOD.”
わたしはあなたの終りを、恐るべきものとする。あなたは無に帰する。あなたを尋ねる人があっても、永久に見いださないと、主なる神は言われる」。
