< Osee 10 >
1 Israel is a vine with goodly branches, her fruit is abundant: according to the multitude of her fruits she has multiplied [her] altars; according to the wealth of his land, he has set up pillars.
イスラエルは果をむすびて茂り榮る葡萄の樹その果の多くなるがままに祭壇をましその地の饒かなるがままに偶像を美しくせり
2 They have divided their hearts; now shall they be utterly destroyed: he shall dig down their altars, their pillars shall mourn.
かれらは二心をいだけり今かれら罪せらるべし神はその祭壇を打毀ちその偶像を折棄てたまはん
3 Because now they shall say, We have no king, because we feared not the Lord:
かれら今いふべし我儕神を畏れざりしに因て我らに王なしこの王はわれらのために何をかなさんと
4 and what should a king do for us, speaking false professions [as his] words? he will make a covenant: judgment shall spring up as a weed on the soil of the field.
かれらは虚しき言をいだし偽の誓をなして約をたつ審判は畑の畝にもえいづる茵蔯のごとし
5 The inhabitants of Samaria shall dwell near the calf of the house of On; for the people of it mourned for it: and as they provoked him, they shall rejoice at his glory, because he has departed from them.
サマリヤの居民はベテアベンの犢の故によりて戰慄かんその民とこれを悦ぶ祭司等はその榮のうせたるが爲になげかん
6 And having bound it for the Assyrians, they carried it away as presents to king Jarim: Ephraim shall receive a gift, and Israel shall be ashamed of his counsel.
犢はアッスリヤに携へられ禮物としてヤレブ王に献げらるべしエフライムは羞をかうむりイスラエルはおのが計議を恥ぢん
7 Samaria has cast off her king as a twig on the surface of the water.
サマリヤはほろびその王は水のうへの木片のごとし
8 And the altars of On, the sins of Israel, shall be taken away: thorns and thistles shall come up on their altars; and they shall say to the mountains, Cover us; and to the hills, Fall on us.
イスラエルの罪なるアベンの崇邱は荒はてて荊棘と蒺藜その壇のうへにはえ茂らんその時かれら山にむかひて我儕をおほへ陵にむかひて我儕のうへに倒れよといはん
9 From the time the hills [existed] Israel has sinned: there they stood: war [waged] against the children of iniquity
イスラエルよ汝はギベアの日より罪ををかせり彼等はそこに立り邪惡のひとびとを攻たりし戰爭はギベアにてかれらに及ばざりき
10 to chastise them shall not overtake them on the hill, the nations shall be gathered against them, when they are chastened for their two sins,
我思ふままに彼等をいましめん彼等その二の罪につながれん時もろもろの民あつまりて之をせめん
11 Ephraim is a heifer taught to love victory, but I will come upon the fairest part of her neck: I will mount Ephraim; I will pass over Juda in silence; Jacob shall prevail against him.
エフライムは馴されたる牝牛のごとくにして穀をふむことを好むされどわれその美しき頸に物を負しむべし我エフライムに軛をかけんユダは耕しヤコブは土塊をくだかん
12 Sow to yourselves for righteousness, gather in for the fruit of life: light ye for yourselves the light of knowledge; seek the Lord till the fruits of righteousness come upon you.
なんぢら義を生ずるために種をまき憐憫にしたがひてかりとり又新地をひらけ今はヱホバを求むべき時なり終にはヱホバきたりて義を雨のごとく汝等のうへに降せたまはん
13 Wherefore have ye passed over ungodliness in silence, and reaped the sins of it? ye have eaten false fruit; for thou has trusted in thy sins, in the abundance of thy power.
なんぢらは惡をたがへし不義を穫をさめ虚偽の果をくらへりこは汝おのれの途をたのみ己が勇士の數衆きをたのめるに縁る
14 Therefore shall destruction rise up among thy people, and all thy strong places shall be ruined: as a prince Solomon [departed] out of the house of Jeroboam, in the days of battle they dashed the mother to the ground upon the children,
この故になんぢらの民のなかに擾亂おこりて汝らの城はことごとく打破られんシャルマンが戰門の日にベテアルベルを打破りしにことならず母その子とともに碎かれたり
15 thus will I do to you, O house of Israel, because of the unrighteousness of your sins.
なんぢらの大なる惡のゆゑによりてべテル如此なんぢらに行へるなりイスラエルの王はあしたに滅びん
