Jeremiah 27
1 At the beginning of the reign of Zedekiah son of Josiah king of Judah, this word came to Jeremiah from the LORD.
ユダの王ヨシヤの子ヱホヤキムが位に即し初のころヱホバより此言ヱレミヤに臨みていふ
2 This is what the LORD said to me: “Make for yourself a yoke out of leather straps and put it on your neck.
すなはちヱホバかく我に云たまへり汝索と軛をつくりて汝の項に置き
3 Send word to the kings of Edom, Moab, Ammon, Tyre, and Sidon through the envoys who have come to Jerusalem to Zedekiah king of Judah.
之をヱルサレムにきたりてゼデキヤ王にいたるところの使臣等の手によりてエドムの王モアブの王アンモン人の王ツロの王シドンの王に送るべし
4 Give them a message from the LORD of Hosts, the God of Israel, to relay to their masters:
汝彼らに命じて其主にいはしめよ萬軍のヱホバ、イスラエルの神かくいひたまふ汝ら其主にかく告べし
5 By My great power and outstretched arm, I made the earth and the men and beasts on the face of it, and I give it to whom I please.
われ我大なる能力と伸たる臂をもて地と地の上にをる人と獸とをつくり我心のままに地を人にあたへたり
6 So now I have placed all these lands under the authority of My servant Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon. I have even made the beasts of the field subject to him.
いま我この諸の地を我僕なるバビロンの王ネブカデネザルの手にあたへ又野の獸を彼にあたへてかれにつかへしむ
7 All nations will serve him and his son and grandson, until the time of his own land comes; then many nations and great kings will enslave him.
かれの地の時期いたるまで萬國民は彼と其子とその孫につかへん其時いたらばおほくの國と大なる王は彼を己に事へしむべし
8 As for the nation or kingdom that does not serve Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon and does not place its neck under his yoke, I will punish that nation by sword and famine and plague, declares the LORD, until I have destroyed it by his hand.
バビロンの王ネブカデネザルに事へずバビロンの王の軛をその項に負ざる國と民は我彼の手をもて悉くこれを滅すまで劍と饑饉と疫病をもてこれを罰せんとヱホバいひたまふ
9 But as for you, do not listen to your prophets, your diviners, your interpreters of dreams, your mediums, or your sorcerers who declare, ‘You will not serve the king of Babylon.’
故に汝らの預言者なんぢらの占筮師汝らの夢みる者汝らの法術士汝らの魔法士汝らに告て汝らはバビロンの王に事ふることあらじといふとも聽なかれ
10 For they prophesy to you a lie that will serve to remove you from your land; I will banish you and you will perish.
彼らは謊を汝らに預言して汝らをその國より遠く離れしめ且我をして汝らを逐しめ汝らを滅さしむるなり
11 But the nation that will put its neck under the yoke of the king of Babylon and serve him, I will leave in its own land, to cultivate it and reside in it, declares the LORD.”
然どバビロンの王の軛をその項に負ふて彼に事ふる國々の人は我これをその故土に存し其處に耕し住しむべしとヱホバいひたまふ
12 And to Zedekiah king of Judah I spoke the same message: “Put your necks under the yoke of the king of Babylon; serve him and his people, and live!
我この諸の言のごとくユダの王ゼデキヤに告ていひけるは汝らバビロンの王の軛を汝らの項に負ふて彼と其民につかへよ然ば生べし
13 Why should you and your people die by sword and famine and plague, as the LORD has decreed against any nation that does not serve the king of Babylon?
汝と汝の民なんぞヱホバがバビロンの王につかへざる國につきていひたまひし如く劍と饑饉と疫病に死ぬべけんや
14 Do not listen to the words of the prophets who say, ‘You must not serve the king of Babylon,’ for they are prophesying to you a lie.
故に汝らはバビロンの王に事ふることあらじと汝等に告る預言者の言を聽なかれ彼らは謊を汝らに預言するなり
15 For I have not sent them, declares the LORD, and yet they are prophesying falsely in My name; therefore I will banish you, and you will perish—you and the prophets who prophesy to you.”
ヱホバいひたまひけるは我彼らを遣さざるに彼らは我名をもて謊を預言す是をもて我汝らを逐はなち汝らと汝らに預言する預言者等を滅すにいたらん
16 Then I said to the priests and to all this people, “This is what the LORD says: Do not listen to the words of your prophets who prophesy to you, saying, ‘Look, very soon now the articles from the house of the LORD will be brought back from Babylon.’ They are prophesying to you a lie.
我また祭司とこのすべての民に語りていひけるはヱホバかくいひたまふ視よヱホバの室の器皿いま速にバビロンより持歸さるべしと汝らに預言する預言者の言をきく勿れそは彼ら謊を汝らに預言すればなり
17 Do not listen to them. Serve the king of Babylon and live! Why should this city become a ruin?
汝ら彼らに聽なかれバビロンの王に事へよ然ば生べしこの邑を何ぞ荒蕪となすべけんや
18 If they are indeed prophets and the word of the LORD is with them, let them now plead with the LORD of Hosts that the articles remaining in the house of the LORD, in the palace of the king of Judah, and in Jerusalem, not be taken to Babylon.
もし彼ら預言者にしてヱホバの言かれらの衷にあらばヱホバの室とユダの王の家とヱルサレムとに餘れるところの器皿のバビロンに移されざることを萬軍のヱホバに求むべきなり
19 For this is what the LORD of Hosts says about the pillars, the sea, the bases, and the rest of the articles that remain in this city,
萬軍のヱホバ柱と海と臺およびこの邑に餘れる器皿につきてかくいひたまふ
20 which Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon did not take when he carried Jeconiah son of Jehoiakim king of Judah into exile from Jerusalem to Babylon, along with all the nobles of Judah and Jerusalem.
是はバビロンの王ネブカデネザルがユダの王ヱホヤキムの子ヱコニヤおよびユダとヱルサレムのすべての牧伯等をヱルサレムよりバビロンにとらへ移せしときに掠ざりし器皿なり
21 Yes, this is what the LORD of Hosts, the God of Israel, says about the articles that remain in the house of the LORD, in the palace of the king of Judah, and in Jerusalem:
すなはち萬軍のヱホバ、イスラエルの神ヱホバの室とユダの王の室とヱルサレムとに餘れる器皿につきてかくいひたまふ
22 ‘They will be carried to Babylon and will remain there until the day I attend to them again,’ declares the LORD. ‘Then I will bring them back and restore them to this place.’”
これらはバビロンに携へゆかれ我これを顧る日まで彼處にあらん其後我これを此處にたづさへ歸らしめんとヱホバいひたまふ
