Hosea 5
1 Give ear to this, O priests; give attention, O Israel, and you, family of the king; for you are to be judged; you have been a deceit at Mizpah and a net stretched out on Tabor.
祭司等よこれを聽けイスラエルの家よ耳をかたむけよ 王のいへよ之にこころを注よ さばきは汝等にのぞまん そは我らはミズパに設くる羂タボルに張れる網のごとくなればなり
2 They have gone deep in the evil ways of Shittim, but I am the judge of all.
悖逆者はふかく罪にしづみたり我かれらをことごとく懲しめん
3 I have knowledge of Ephraim, and Israel is not secret from me; for now, O Ephraim, you have been false to me, Israel has become unclean.
我はエフライムを知る イスラエルはわれに隱るるところ無し エフライムよなんぢ今すでに淫行をなせりイスラエルはすでに汚れたり
4 Their works will not let them come back to their God, for a false spirit is in them and they have no knowledge of the Lord.
かれらの行爲かれらをしてその神に歸ること能はざらしむ そは淫行の霊その衷にありてヱホバを知ることなければなり
5 And the pride of Israel gives an answer to his face; and Ephraim will have a fall through his sins, and the fall of Judah will be the same as theirs.
イスラエルの驕傲はその面にむかひて證をなしその罪によりてイスラエルとエフライムは仆れユダもまた之とともにたふれん
6 They will go, with their flocks and their herds, in search of the Lord, but they will not see him; he has taken himself out of their view.
かれらは羊のむれ牛の群をたづさへ往てヱホバを尋ね求めん然どあふことあらじヱホバ旣にかれらより離れ給ひたればなり
7 They have been false to the Lord; they have given birth to strange children; now the new moon will make them waste with their fields.
かれらヱホバにむかひ貞操を守らずして他人の子を產り新月かれらとその產業とをともに滅さん
8 Let the horn be sounded in Gibeah and in Ramah; give a loud cry in Beth-aven, They are after you, O Benjamin.
なんぢらギベアにて角をふきラマにてラッパを吹ならしベテアベンにて呼はりて言へベニヤミンよなんぢの後にありと
9 Ephraim will become a waste in the day of punishment; I have given knowledge among the tribes of Israel of what is certain.
罰せらるるの日にエフライムは荒廢れん我イスラエルの支派の中にかならず有るべきことを示せり
10 The rulers of Judah are like those who take away a landmark; I will let loose my wrath on them like flowing water.
ユダの牧伯等は境界をうつすもののごとくなれり我わが震怒を水のごとくに彼らのうへに斟がん
11 Ephraim is troubled; he is crushed by his judges, because he took pleasure in walking after deceit.
エフライムは甘んじて人のさだめたるところに從ひあゆむがゆゑに鞫をうけて虐げられ圧られん
12 And so to Ephraim I am like a wasting insect, and a destruction to the children of Judah.
われエフライムには蠧のごとくユダの家には腐朽のごとし
13 When Ephraim saw his disease and Judah his wound, then Ephraim went to Assyria and sent to the great king; but he is not able to make you well or give you help for your wound.
エフライムおのれに病あるを見ユダおのれに傷あるをみたり斯てエフライムはアツスリヤに往きヤレブ王に人をつかはしたれど彼はなんぢらを醫すことをえず又なんぢらの傷をのぞきさることを得ざるべし
14 For I will be to Ephraim as a lion, and as a young lion to the children of Judah; I, even I, will give him wounds and go away; I will take him away, and there will be no helper.
われエフライムには獅子のごとくユダの家にはわかき獅子のごとし我しも我は抓劈てさり掠めゆけども救ふ者なかるべし
15 I will go back to my place till they are made waste; in their trouble they will go after me early and will make search for me.
我ふたたびわが處にかへりゆき彼らがその罪をくいてひたすらわが面をたづね求むるまで其處にをらん彼らは艱難によりて我をたづねもとむることをせん
