< Ezekiel 26 >

1 Now in the eleventh year, on the first day of the month, the word of the Lord 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 who was the doorway of the peoples is broken; she is turned over to them; she who was full is made 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 For this cause the Lord has said, See, I am against you, O Tyre, and will send up a number of nations against you as the sea sends up its waves.
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 And they will give the walls of Tyre to destruction and have its towers broken: and I will take even her dust away from her, and make her an uncovered 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 stretching out of nets in the middle of the sea; for I have said it, says the Lord: and her goods will be given over to 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 And her daughters in the open country will be put to the sword: and they will be certain 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 this is what the Lord has said: See, I will send up from the north Nebuchadrezzar, king of Babylon, king of kings, against Tyre, with horses and war-carriages and with an army and great numbers of 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 put to the sword your daughters in the open country: he will make strong walls against you and put up an earthwork against you, arming himself for war 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 put up his engines of war against your walls, and your towers will be broken down by his axes.
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 Because of the number of his horses you will be covered with their dust: your walls will be shaking at the noise of the horsemen and of the wheels and of the war-carriages, when he comes through your doorways, as into a town which has been 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 Your streets will be stamped down by the feet of his horses: he will put your people to the sword, and will send down the pillars of your strength to the earth.
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 take by force all your wealth and go off with the goods with which you do trade: they will have your walls broken down and all the houses of your desire given up to destruction: they will put your stones and your wood and your dust deep in the water.
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 put an end to the noise of your songs, and the sound of your instruments of music will be gone for ever.
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 an uncovered rock: you will be a place for the stretching out of nets; there will be no building you up again: for I the Lord have said it, says the Lord.
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 This is what the Lord has said to Tyre: Will not the sea-lands be shaking at the sound of your fall, when the wounded give cries of pain, when men are put to the sword in 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 rulers of the sea will come down from their high seats, and put away their robes and take off their clothing of needlework: they will put on the clothing of grief, they will take their seats on the earth, shaking with fear every minute and overcome with wonder 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 And they will send up a song of grief for you, and say to you, What destruction has come on you, how are you cut off from the sea, the noted town, which was strong in the sea, she and her people, causing the fear of them to come on all the dry land!
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 sea-lands will be shaking in the day of your fall; and all the ships on the sea will be overcome with fear at your going.
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 this is what the Lord has said: I will make you a waste town, like the towns which are unpeopled; when I make the deep come upon you, covering you with great waters.
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 make you go down with those who go down into the underworld, to the people of the past, causing your living-place to be in the deepest parts of the earth, in places long unpeopled, with those who go down into the deep, so that there will be no one living in you; and you will have no 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 thing of fear, and you will come to an end: even if you are looked for, you will not be seen again for ever, says the Lord.
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」。
