Jeremias 23
1 Woe to the shepherds that destroy and scatter the sheep of their pasture!
ヱホバいひ給ひけるは嗚呼わが養ふ群を滅し散す牧者は禍なるかな
2 Therefore thus saith the Lord against them that tend my people; Ye have scattered my sheep, and driven them out, and ye have not visited them: behold, I [will] take vengeance upon you according to your evil practices.
故にイスラエルの神ヱホバ我民を養ふ牧者につきて斯いふ汝らはわが群を散しこれを逐はなちて顧みざりき視よわれ汝らの惡き行によりて汝等に報ゆべしとヱホバいふ
3 And I will gather in the remnant of my people in every land, whither I have driven them out, and will set them in their pasture; and they shall increase and be multiplied.
われ我群の遺餘たる者をその逐はなちたる諸の地より集め再びこれを其牢に歸さん彼らは子を產て多くなるべし
4 And I will raise up shepherds to them, who shall feed them: and they shall fear no more, nor be alarmed, saith the Lord.
我これを養ふ牧者をその上に立ん彼等はふたたび慄かず懼ずまた失じとヱホバいひたまふ
5 Behold, the days come, saith the Lord, when I will raise up to David a righteous branch, and a king shall reign and understand, and shall execute judgment and righteousness on the earth.
ヱホバいひたまひけるは視よわがダビデに一の義き枝を起す日來らん彼王となりて世を治め榮え公道と公義を世に行ふべし
6 In his days both Juda shall be saved, and Israel shall dwell securely: and this is his name, which the Lord shall call him, Josedec among the prophets.
其日ユダは救をえイスラエルは安に居らん其名はヱホバ我儕の義と稱らるべし
7 Therefore, behold, the days come, saith the Lord, when they shall no more say, The Lord lives, who brought up the house of Israel out of the land of Egypt;
この故にヱホバいひ給ふ視よイスラエルの民をエジプトの地より導出せしヱホバは活くと人衆復いはずして
8 but The Lord lives, who has gathered the whole seed of Israel from the north land, and from all the countries whither he [had] driven them out, and has restored them into their own land.
イスラエルの家の裔を北の地と其諸て逐やりし地より導出せしヱホバは活くといふ日來らん彼らは自己の地に居るべし
9 My heart is broken within me; all my bones are shaken: I am become as a broken-down man, and as a man overcome with wine, because of the Lord, and because of the excellence of his glory.
預言者輩のために我心はわが衷に壞れわが骨は皆震ふ且ヱホバとその聖言のためにわれは醉る人のごとく酒に勝るる人のごとし
10 For because of these things the land mourns; the pastures of the wilderness are dried up; and their course is become evil, and so [also] their strength.
この地は姦淫をなすもの盈ち地は呪詛によりて憂へ曠野の艸は枯る彼らの途はあしく其力は正しからず
11 For priest and prophet are defiled; and I have seen their iniquities in my house.
預言者と祭司は偕に邪惡なりわれ我家に於てすら彼等の惡を見たりとヱホバいひたまふ
12 Therefore let their way be to them slippery and dark: and they shall be tripped up and fall in it: for I will bring evils upon them, in the year of their visitation.
故にかれらの途は暗に在る滑なる途の如くならん彼等推れて其途に仆るべし我災をその上にのぞましめん是彼らが刑罰らるる年なりとヱホバいひたまふ
13 And in the prophets of Samaria I have seen lawless deeds; they prophesied by Baal, and led my people Israel astray.
われサマリヤの預言者の中に愚昧なる事あるをみたり彼等はバアルに託りて預言し我民イスラエルを惑はせり
14 Also in the prophets of Jerusalem I have seen horrible things: as they committed adultery, and walked in lies, and strengthened the hands of many, that they should not return each from his evil way: they are all become to me as Sodom, and the inhabitants thereof as Gomorrha.
我ヱルサレムの預言者の中にも憎むべき事あるを見たり彼等は姦淫をなし詐僞をおこなひ惡人の手を堅くして人をその惡に離れざらしむ彼等みな我にはソドムのごとく其民はゴモラのごとし
15 Therefore thus saith the Lord; Behold, I will feed them with pain, and give them bitter water to drink: for from the prophets of Jerusalem has defilement gone forth [into] all the land.
この故に萬軍のヱホバ預言者につきてかくいひたまふ視よわれ茵蔯を之に食はせ毒水をこれに飮せんそは邪惡ヱルサレムの預言者よりいでて此全地に及べばなり
16 Thus saith the Lord Almighty, Hearken not to the words of the prophets: for they frame a vain vision for themselves; they speak from their own heart, and not from the mouth of the Lord.
萬軍のヱホバかくいひたまふ汝等に預言する預言者の言を聽く勿れ彼等は汝らを欺きヱホバの口よりいでざるおのが心の默示を語るなり
17 They say to them that reject the word of the Lord, There shall be peace to you; and to all that walk after their own lusts, and to everyone that walks in the error of his heart, they have said, No evil shall come upon thee.
常に彼らは我を藐忽ずる者にむかひて汝等平安をえんとヱホバいひたまへりといひ又己が心の剛愎なるに循ひて行むところのすべての者に向ひて災汝らに來らじといへり
18 For who has stood in the counsel of the Lord, and seen his word? who has hearkened, and heard?
誰かヱホバの議會に立て其言を見聞せし者あらんや誰か其耳を傾けて我言を聽し者あらんや
19 Behold, [there is] an earthquake from the Lord, and anger proceeds to a convulsion, it shall come violently upon the ungodly.
みよヱホバの暴風あり怒と旋轉風いでて惡人の首をうたん
20 And the Lord's wrath shall return no more, until he have accomplished it, and until he have established it, according to the purpose of his heart: at the end of the days they shall understand it.
ヱホバの怒はかれがその心の思を行ひてこれを遂げ給ふまでは息じ末の日に汝ら明にこれを曉らん
21 I sent not the prophets, yet they ran: neither spoke I to them, yet they prophesied.
預言者等はわが遣さざるに趨り我告ざるに預言せり
22 But if they had stood in my counsel, and if they had hearkened to my words, then would they have turned my people from their evil practices.
彼らもし我議會に立ちしならば我民にわが言をきかしめて之をその惡き途とその惡き行に離れしめしならん
23 I am a God nigh at hand, saith the Lord, and not a God afar off.
ヱホバいひ給ふ我はただ近くにおいてのみ神たらんや遠くに於ても神たるにあらずや
24 Shall any one hide himself in secret places, and I not see him? Do I not fill heaven and earth? saith the Lord.
ヱホバいひたまふ人我に見られざる樣に密かなる處に身を匿し得るかヱホバいひたまふ我は天地に充るにあらずや
25 I have heard what the prophets say, what they prophesy in my name, saying falsely, I have seen a night vision.
われ我名をもて謊を預言する預言者等がわれ夢を見たりわれ夢を見たりと曰ふをきけり
26 How long shall [these things] be in the heart of the prophets that prophesy lies, when they prophesy the purposes of their own heart?
謊を預言する預言者等はいつまで此心をいだくや彼らは其心の詐僞を預言するなり
27 who devise that [men] may forget my law by their dreams, which they have told every one to his neighbour, as their fathers forgot my name in [the worship of] Baal.
彼らは其先祖がバアルによりて我名を忘れしごとく互に夢をかたりて我民にわが名を忘れしめんと思ふや
28 The prophet who has a dream, let him tell his dream; and [he] in whom is my word [spoken] to him, let him tell my word truly: what is the chaff to the corn? so are my words, saith the Lord.
夢をみし預言者は夢を語るべし我言を受し者は誠實をもて我言を語るべし糠いかで麥に比擬ことをえんやとヱホバいひたまふ
29 Behold, are not my words as fire? saith the Lord; and as an axe cutting the rock?
ヱホバ言たまはく我言は火のごとくならずや又磐を打碎く槌の如くならずや
30 Behold, I am therefore against the prophets, saith the Lord God, that steal my words every one from his neighbour.
故に視よわれ我言を相互に竊める預言者の敵となるとヱホバいひたまふ
31 Behold, I am against the prophets that put forth prophecies of mere words, and slumber their sleep.
視よわれは彼いひたまへりと舌をもて語るところの預言者の敵となるとヱホバいひたまふ
32 Therefore, behold, I am against the prophets that prophesy false dreams, and have not told them [truly], and have caused my people to err by their lies, and by their errors; yet I sent them not, and commanded them not; therefore, they shall not profit this people at all.
ヱホバいひたまひけるは視よわれ僞の夢を預言する者の敵となる彼らは之を語りまたその謊と其誇をもて我民を惑はす我かれらを遣さずかれらに命ぜざるなり故に彼らは斯民に益なしとヱホバいひ給ふ
33 And if this people, or the priest, or the prophet, should ask, What is the burden of the Lord? then thou shalt say to them, Ye are the burden, and I will dash you down, saith the Lord.
この民或は預言者又は祭司汝に問てヱホバの重負は何ぞやといはば汝彼等にこたへてヱホバの重負は我汝等を棄んとヱホバの云たまひし事是なりといふべし
34 [As for] the prophet, and the priests, and the people, who shall say, The burden of the Lord, I will even take vengeance on that man, and on his house.
ヱホバの重負といふところの預言者と祭司と民には我その人と其家にこれを降さん
35 Thus shall ye say every one to his neighbour, and every one to his brother, What has the Lord answered? and, what has the Lord said?
汝らはおのおの斯互に言ひその兄弟にいふべしヱホバは何と應へたまひしやヱホバは何と云たまひしやと
36 And do ye name no more the burden of the Lord; for his own word shall be a man's burden.
汝ら復びヱホバの重負といふべからず人の重負となる者は其人の言なるべし汝らは活る神萬軍のヱホバなる我らの神の言を枉るなり
37 But wherefore, [say ye], has the Lord our God spoken?
汝かく預言者にいふべしヱホバは汝に何と答へ給ひしやヱホバは何といひたまひしやと
38 Therefore thus saith the Lord our God; Because ye have spoken this word, The burden of the Lord, and I sent to you, saying, ye shall not say, The burden of the Lord;
汝らもしヱホバの重負といはばヱホバそれにつきてかくいひたまふ我人を汝らに遣して汝等ヱホバの重負といふべからずといはしむるも汝らはヱホバの重負といふ此言をいふによりて
39 therefore, behold, I [will] seize, and dash down you and the city which I gave to you and your fathers.
われ必ず汝らを忘れ汝らと汝らの先祖にあたへし此邑と汝らとを我前より棄ん
40 And I will bring upon you an everlasting reproach, and everlasting disgrace, which shall not be forgotten.
且われ永遠の辱と永遠なる忘らるることなき恥を汝らにかうむらしめん
