Joel 2
1 Sound the trumpet in Sion, make a proclamation in my holy mountain, and let all the inhabitants of the land be confounded: for the day of the Lord is near;
汝らシオンにて喇叭を吹け 我聖山にて音たかく之を吹鳴せ 國の民みな慄ひわななかん そはヱホバの日きたらんとすればなり すでに近づけり
2 for a day of darkness and gloominess is near, a day of cloud and mist: a numerous and strong people shall be spread upon the mountains as the morning; there has not been from the beginning one like it, and after it there shall not be again even to the years of many generations.
この日は黒くをぐらき日雲むらがるまぐらき日にしてしののめの山々にたなびくが如し 數おほく勢さかんなる民むれいたらん かかる者はいにしへよりありしことなく後の代々の年にもあることなかるべし
3 Before them is a consuming fire, and behind them is a flame kindled: the land before them is as a paradise of delight, and behind them a desolate plain: and there shall none of them escape.
火彼らの前を焚き火熖かれらの後にもゆ その過さる前は地エデンのごとくその過ぎしのちは荒はてたる野の如し 此をのがれうるもの一としてあることなし
4 Their appearance is as the appearance of horses; and as horsemen, so shall they pursue.
彼らの状は馬のかたちのごとく其馳ありくことは軍馬のごとし
5 As the sound of chariots on the tops of mountains shall they leap, and as the sound of a flame of fire devouring stubble, and as a numerous and strong people setting themselves in array for battle.
その山の嶺にとびをどる音は車の轟聲がごとし また火の稗株をやくおとの如くしてその様強き民の行伍をたてて戰陣にのぞむに似たり
6 Before them shall the people be crushed: every face [shall be] as the blackness of a caldron.
そのむかふところ諸民戰慄きその面みな色を失ふ
7 As warriors shall they run, and as men of war shall they mount on the walls; and each shall move in his [right] path, and they shall not turn aside from their tracks:
彼らは勇士の如くに趨あるき軍人のごとくに石垣に攀のぼる 彼ら各おのが道を進みゆきてその列を亂さず
8 and not one shall stand aloof from his brother: they shall go on weighed down with their arms, and they fall upon their weapons, yet shall they in no wise be destroyed.
彼ら互に推あはず各その道にしたがひて進み行く 彼らは刄に觸るとも身を害はず
9 They shall seize upon the city, and run upon the walls, and go up upon the houses, and enter in through the windows as thieves.
彼らは邑をかけめぐり石垣の上に奔り家に攀登り盗賊のごとくに窓より入る
10 Before them the earth shall be confounded, and the sky shall be shaken: the sun and the moon shall be darkened, and the stars shall withdraw their light.
そのむかふところ地ゆるぎ天震ひ日も月も暗くなり星その光明を失ふ
11 And the Lord shall utter his voice before his host: for his camp is very great: for the execution of his words is mighty: for the day of the Lord is great, very glorious, and who shall be able to [resist] it?
ヱホバその軍勢の前にて聲をあげたまふ 其軍旅はなはだ大なればなり 其言を爲とぐる者は強し ヱホバの日は大にして甚だ畏るべきが故に誰かこれに耐ふることを得んや
12 Now therefore, saith the Lord your God, turn to me with all your heart, and with fasting, and with weeping, and with lamentation:
然どヱホバ言たまふ 今にても汝ら斷食と哭泣と悲哀とをなし心をつくして我に歸れ
13 and rend your hearts, and not your garments, and turn to the Lord your God: for he is merciful and compassionate, long-suffering, and plenteous in mercy, and repents of evils.
汝ら衣を裂かずして心を裂き汝等の神ヱホバに歸るべし 彼は恩惠あり憐憫ありかつ怒ることゆるく愛憐大にして災害をなすを悔いたまふなり
14 Who knows if he will return, and repent, and leave a blessing behind him, even a meat-offering and a drink-offering to the Lord your God?
誰か彼のあるひは立歸り悔て祝福をその後にとめのこし汝らをして素祭と灌祭とをなんぢらの神ヱホバにささげしめ給はじと知んや
15 Sound the trumpet in Sion, sanctify a fast, proclaim a [solemn] service:
汝らシオンにて喇叭を吹きならし斷食を定め公會をよびつどへ
16 gather the people, sanctify the congregation, assemble the elders, gather the infants at the breast: let the bridegroom go forth of his chamber, and the bride out of her closet.
民を集めその會を潔くし老たる人をあつめ孩童と乳哺子を集め新郎をその室より呼いだし新婦をその密室より呼いだせ
17 Between the porch and the altar let the priests that minister to the Lord weep, and say, Spare thy people, O Lord, and give not thine heritage to reproach, that the heathen should rule over them, lest they should say among the heathen, Where is their God?
而してヱホバに事ふる祭司等は廊と祭壇の間にて泣て言へ ヱホバよ汝の民を赦したまへ 汝の産業を恥辱しめらるるに任せ之を異邦人に治めさする勿れ 何ぞ異邦人をして彼らの神は何處にあると言しむべけんや
18 But the Lord was jealous of his land, and spared his people.
然せばヱホバ己の地にために嫉妬を起しその民を憐みたまはん
19 And the Lord answered and said to his people, Behold, I [will] send you corn, and wine, and oil, and ye shall be satisfied with them: and I will no longer make you a reproach among the Gentiles.
ヱホバ應へてその民に言たまはん 視よ我穀物とあたらしき酒と油を汝におくる 汝ら之に飽ん 我なんぢらをして重ねて異邦人の中に恥辱を蒙らしめじ
20 And I will chase away from you the northern [adversary], and will drive him away into a dry land, and I will sink his face in the former sea, and his back parts in the latter sea, and his ill savour shall come up, and his stink come up, because he has wrought great things.
我北よりきたる軍を遠く汝らより離れしめうるほひなき荒地に逐やらん 其前軍を東の海にその後軍を西の海に入れん その臭味立ちその惡臭騰らん 是大なる事を爲たるに因る
21 Be of good courage, O land; rejoice and be glad: for the Lord has done great things.
地よ懼るる勿れ 喜び樂しめ ヱホバ大なる事を行ひたまふなり
22 Be of good courage, ye beasts of the plain, for the plains of the wilderness have budded, for the trees have borne their fruit, the fig tree and the vine have yielded their strength.
野の獸よ懼るる勿れ あれ野の牧草はもえいで樹は果を結び無花果樹葡萄樹はその力をめざすなり
23 Rejoice then and be glad, ye children of Sion, in the Lord your God: for he has given you food fully, and he will rain on you the early and the latter rain, as before.
シオンの子等よ 汝らの神ヱホバによりて樂め喜べ ヱホバは秋の雨を適當なんぢらに賜ひまた前のごとく秋の雨と春の雨とを汝らの上に降せたまふ
24 And the floors shall be filled with corn, and the presses shall overflow with wine and oil.
打塲には穀物盈ち甕にはあたらしき酒と油溢れん
25 And I will recompense you for the years which the locust, and the caterpillar, and the palmerworm, and the cankerworm have eaten, [even] my great army, which I sent against you.
我が汝らに遣しし大軍すなはち群ゐる蝗なめつくす蝗喫ほろぼす蝗噬くらふ蝗の触あらせる年を我汝らに賠はん
26 And ye shall eat abundantly, and be satisfied, and shall praise the name of the Lord your God [for the things] which he has wrought wonderfully with you: and my people shall not be ashamed for ever.
汝らは食ひ食ひて飽き よのつねならずなんぢらを待ひたまひし汝らの神ヱホバの名をほめ頌へん 我民はとこしへに辱しめらるることなかるべし
27 And ye shall know that I am in the midst of Israel, and [that] I am the Lord your God, and [that] there is none else beside me; and my people shall no more be ashamed for ever.
かくて汝らはイスラエルの中に我が居るを知り汝らの神ヱホバは我のみにて外に無きことを知らん 我民は永遠に辱かしめらるることなかるべし
28 And it shall come to pass afterward, that I will pour out of my Spirit upon all flesh; and your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, and your old men shall dream dreams, and your young men shall see visions.
その後われ吾靈を一切の人に注がん 汝らの男子女子は預言せん 汝らの老たる人は夢を見 汝らの少き人は異象を見ん
29 And on my servants and on [my] handmaids in those days will I pour out of my Spirit.
その日我またわが靈を僕婢に注がん
30 And I will shew wonders in heaven, and upon the earth, blood, and fire, and vapor of smoke.
また天と地に徴證を顯さん 即ち血あり火あり煙の柱あるべし
31 The sun shall be turned into darkness, and the moon into blood, before the great and glorious day of the Lord come.
ヱホバの大なる畏るべき日の來らん前に日は暗く月は血に變らん
32 And it shall come to pass [that] whosoever shall call on the name of the Lord shall be saved: for in mount Sion and in Jerusalem shall the saved one be as the Lord has said, and they that have glad tidings preached to them, whom the Lord has called.
凡てヱホバの名を龥ぶ者は救はるべし そはヱホバの宣ひし如くシオンの山とヱルサレムとに救はれし者あるべければなり 其遺れる者の中にヱホバの召し給へるものあらん
