Jeremiah 25
1 The word that came to Jeremiah concerning all the people of Judah, in the fourth year of Jehoiakim the son of Josiah, king of Judah (this was the first year of Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon),
ユダの王ヨシヤの子ヱホヤキムの四年バビロンの王ネブカデネザルの元年にユダのすべての民にかかはる言ヱレミヤにのぞめり
2 which Jeremiah the prophet spoke to all the people of Judah, and to all the inhabitants of Jerusalem:
預言者ヱレミヤこの言をユダのすべての民とヱルサレムにすめるすべての者に告ていひけるは
3 From the thirteenth year of Josiah the son of Amon, king of Judah, even to this day, these twenty-three years, the LORD’s word has come to me, and I have spoken to you, rising up early and speaking; but you have not listened.
ユダの王アモンの子ヨシヤの十三年より今日にいたるまで二十三年のあひだヱホバの言我にのぞめり我これを汝等に告げ頻にこれを語りしかども汝らきかざりし
4 The LORD has sent to you all his servants the prophets, rising up early and sending them (but you have not listened or inclined your ear to hear),
ヱホバその僕なる預言者を汝らに遣し頻に遣したまひけれども汝らはきかず又きかんとて耳を傾けざりき
5 saying, “Return now everyone from his evil way, and from the evil of your doings, and dwell in the land that the LORD has given to you and to your fathers, from of old and even forever more.
彼らいへり汝等おのおのいま其惡き途とその惡き行を棄よ然ばヱホバが汝らと汝らの先祖に與へたまひし地に永遠より永遠にいたるまで住ことをえん
6 Do not go after other gods to serve them or worship them, and do not provoke me to anger with the work of your hands; then I will do you no harm.”
汝ら他の神に從ひこれに事へこれを拜み汝らの手にて作りし物をもて我を怒らする勿れ然ば我汝らを害はじ
7 “Yet you have not listened to me,” says the LORD, “that you may provoke me to anger with the work of your hands to your own hurt.”
然ど汝らは我にきかず汝等の手にて作りし物をもて我を怒らせて自ら害へりとヱホバいひたまふ
8 Therefore the LORD of Armies says: “Because you have not heard my words,
この故に萬軍のヱホバかく云たまふ汝ら我言を聽ざれば
9 behold, I will send and take all the families of the north,” says the LORD, “and I will send to Nebuchadnezzar the king of Babylon, my servant, and will bring them against this land, and against its inhabitants, and against all these nations around. I will utterly destroy them, and make them an astonishment, and a hissing, and perpetual desolations.
視よ我北の諸の族と我僕なるバビロンの王ネブカデネザルを招きよせ此地とその民と其四圍の諸國を攻滅さしめて之を詫異物となし人の嗤笑となし永遠の荒地となさんとヱホバいひたまふ
10 Moreover I will take from them the voice of mirth and the voice of gladness, the voice of the bridegroom and the voice of the bride, the sound of the millstones, and the light of the lamp.
またわれ欣喜の聲 歡樂の聲 新夫の聲 新婦の聲 磐磨の音および燈の光を彼らの中にたえしめん
11 This whole land will be a desolation, and an astonishment; and these nations will serve the king of Babylon seventy years.
この地はみな空曠となり詫異物とならん又その諸國は七十年の間バビロンの王につかふべし
12 “It will happen, when seventy years are accomplished, that I will punish the king of Babylon and that nation,” says the LORD, “for their iniquity. I will make the land of the Chaldeans desolate forever.
ヱホバいひたまふ七十年のをはりし後我バビロンの王と其民とカルデヤの地をその罪のために罰し永遠の空曠となさん
13 I will bring on that land all my words which I have pronounced against it, even all that is written in this book, which Jeremiah has prophesied against all the nations.
我かの地につきて我かたりし諸の言をその上に臨しめん是ヱレミヤが萬國の事につきて預言したる者にて皆この書に錄さるるなり
14 For many nations and great kings will make bondservants of them, even of them. I will recompense them according to their deeds, and according to the work of their hands.”
多の國々と大なる王等は彼らをして己につかへしめん我かれらの行爲とその手の所作に循ひてこれに報いん
15 For the LORD, the God of Israel, says to me: “Take this cup of the wine of wrath from my hand, and cause all the nations to whom I send you to drink it.
イスラエルの神ヱホバかく我に云たまへり我手より此怒の杯をうけて我汝を遣はすところの國々の民に飮しめよ
16 They will drink, and reel back and forth, and be insane, because of the sword that I will send among them.”
彼らは飮てよろめき狂はんこは我かれらの中に劍をつかはすによりてなり
17 Then I took the cup at the LORD’s hand, and made all the nations to drink, to whom the LORD had sent me:
是に於てわれヱホバの手より杯をうけヱホバのわれを遣したまふところの國々の民に飮しめたり
18 Jerusalem, and the cities of Judah, with its kings and its princes, to make them a desolation, an astonishment, a hissing, and a curse, as it is today;
即ちヱルサレムとユダの諸の邑とその王等およびその牧伯等に飮せてこれをほろぼし詫異物となし人の嗤笑となし詛るる者となせり今日のごとし
19 Pharaoh king of Egypt, with his servants, his princes, and all his people;
またエジプトの王パロと其臣僕その牧伯等その諸の民と
20 and all the mixed people, and all the kings of the land of Uz, all the kings of the Philistines, Ashkelon, Gaza, Ekron, and the remnant of Ashdod;
諸の雜種の民およびウズの諸の王等およびペリシテ人の地の諸の王等アシケロン、ガザ、エクロン、アシドドの遺餘の者
21 Edom, Moab, and the children of Ammon;
エドム、モアブ、アンモンの子孫
22 and all the kings of Tyre, all the kings of Sidon, and the kings of the isle which is beyond the sea;
ツロのすべての王等シドンのすべての王等海のかなたの島々の王等
23 Dedan, Tema, Buz, and all who have the corners of their beard cut off;
デダン、テマ、ブズおよびすべて鬚をそる者
24 and all the kings of Arabia, all the kings of the mixed people who dwell in the wilderness;
アラビヤのすべての王等曠野の雜種の民の諸の王等
25 and all the kings of Zimri, all the kings of Elam, and all the kings of the Medes;
ジムリの諸の王等エラムの諸の王等メデアのすべての王等
26 and all the kings of the north, far and near, one with another; and all the kingdoms of the world, which are on the surface of the earth. The king of Sheshach will drink after them.
北のすべての王等その彼と此とにおいて或は遠者或は近きもの凡地の面にある世の國々の王等はこの杯を飮んセシヤク王はこれらの後に飮べし
27 “You shall tell them, ‘The LORD of Armies, the God of Israel says: “Drink, and be drunk, vomit, fall, and rise no more, because of the sword which I will send among you.”’
故に汝かれらに語ていへ萬軍のヱホバ、イスラエルの神かくいひたまふ我汝等の中に劍を遣すによりて汝らは飮みまた醉ひまた吐き又仆て再び起ざれと
28 It shall be, if they refuse to take the cup at your hand to drink, then you shall tell them, ‘The LORD of Armies says: “You shall surely drink.
彼等もし汝の手より此杯を受て飮ずば汝彼らにいへ萬軍のヱホバかくいひたまふ汝ら必ず飮べし
29 For, behold, I begin to work evil at the city which is called by my name; and should you be utterly unpunished? You will not be unpunished; for I will call for a sword on all the inhabitants of the earth, says the LORD of Armies.”’
視よわれ我名をもて稱へらるるこの邑にすら災を降すなり汝らいかで罰を免るることをえんや汝らは罰を免れじ蓋われ劍をよびて地に住るすべての者を攻べければなりと萬軍のヱホバいひたまふ
30 “Therefore prophesy against them all these words, and tell them, “‘The LORD will roar from on high, and utter his voice from his holy habitation. He will mightily roar against his fold. He will give a shout, as those who tread grapes, against all the inhabitants of the earth.
汝彼等にこの諸の言を預言していふべしヱホバ高き所より呼號り其聖宮より聲を出し己の住家に向てよばはり地に住る諸の者にむかひて葡萄を踐む者のごとく咷たまはん
31 A noise will come even to the end of the earth; for the LORD has a controversy with the nations. He will enter into judgment with all flesh. As for the wicked, he will give them to the sword,”’ says the LORD.”
號咷地の極まで聞ゆ蓋ヱホバ列國と爭ひ萬民を審き惡人を劍に付せば也とヱホバ曰たまへり
32 The LORD of Armies says, “Behold, evil will go out from nation to nation, and a great storm will be raised up from the uttermost parts of the earth.”
萬軍のヱホバかく曰たまふ視よ災いでて國より國にいたらん大なる暴風地の極よりおこるべし
33 The slain of the LORD will be at that day from one end of the earth even to the other end of the earth. They will not be lamented. They will not be gathered or buried. They will be dung on the surface of the ground.
其日ヱホバの戮したまふ者は地の此極より地の彼の極に及ばん彼等は哀まれず殮められず葬られずして地の面に糞土とならん
34 Wail, you shepherds, and cry. Wallow in dust, you leader of the flock; for the days of your slaughter and of your dispersions have fully come, and you will fall like fine pottery.
牧者よ哭き叫べ群の長等よ汝ら灰の中に轉ぶべし蓋汝らの屠らるる日滿れば也我汝らを散すべければ汝らは貴き器のごとく堕べし
35 The shepherds will have no way to flee. The leader of the flock will have no escape.
牧者は避場なく群の長等は逃る處なし
36 A voice of the cry of the shepherds, and the wailing of the leader of the flock, for the LORD destroys their pasture.
牧者の呼號の聲と群の長等の哀哭きこゆ蓋ヱホバ其牧場を滅したまへば也
37 The peaceful folds are brought to silence because of the fierce anger of the LORD.
ヱホバの烈き怒によりて平安なる牧場は滅さる
38 He has left his covert, as the lion; for their land has become an astonishment because of the fierceness of the oppression, and because of his fierce anger.
彼は獅子の如く其巢を出たり滅す者の怒と其烈き忿によりて彼らの地は荒されたり
