< Esias 58 >
1 Cry aloud, and spare not; lift up your voice as with a trumpet, and declare to my people their sins, and to the house of Jacob their iniquities.
大によばはりて聲ををしむなかれ 汝のこゑをラッパのごとくあげ わが民にその愆をつげヤコブの家にその罪をつげしめせ
2 They seek me day by day, and desire to know my ways, as a people that had done righteousness, and had not forsaken the judgement of their God: they now ask of me righteous judgement, and desire to draw near to God,
かれらは日々われを尋求めわが途をしらんことをこのむ 義をおこなひ神の法をすてざる國のごとく義しき法をわれにもとめ神と相近づくことをこのめり
3 saying, Why have we fasted, and you regard not? [why] have we afflicted our souls, and you did not know it? Nay, in the days of your fasts you find your pleasures, and all them that are under your power you wound.
かれらはいふ われら斷食するになんぢ見たまはず われら心をくるしむるになんぢ知たまはざるは何ぞやと 視よなんぢらの斷食の日にはおのがこのむ作をなし その工人をことごとく惱めつかふ
4 If you fast for quarrels and strifes, and strike the lowly with [your] fists, therefore do you fast to me as [you do] this day, so that your voice may be heard in crying?
視よなんぢら斷食するときは相あらそひ相きそひ惡の拳をもて人をうつ なんぢらの今のだんじきはその聲をうへに聞えしめんとにあらざるなり
5 I have not chosen this fast, nor [such] a day for a man to afflict his soul; neither though you should bend down your neck as a ring, and spread under you sackcloth and ashes, neither thus shall you call a fast acceptable.
斯のごとき斷食はわが悦ぶところのものならんや かくのごときは人その靈魂をなやますの日ならんや その首を葦のごとくにふし麁服と灰とをその下にしくをもて斷食の日またヱホバに納らるる日ととなふべけんや
6 I have not chosen such a fast, says the Lord; but do you loose every burden of iniquity, do you untie the knots of hard bargains, set the bruised free, and cancel every unjust account.
わが悦ぶところの斷食はあくの繩をほどき 軛のつなをとき虐げらるるものを放ちさらしめ すべての軛ををるなどの事にあらずや
7 Break your bread to the hungry, and lead the unsheltered poor to your house: if you see one naked, clothe [him], and you shall not disregard the relations of your own seed.
また饑たる者になんぢのパンを分ちあたへ さすらへる貧民をなんぢの家にいれ裸かなるものを見てこれに衣せ おのが骨肉に身をかくさざるなどの事にあらずや
8 Then shall your light break forth as the morning, and your health shall speedily spring forth: and your righteousness shall go before you, and the glory of God shall compass you.
しかる時はなんぢのひかり暁の如くにあらはれいで 汝すみやかに愈さるることを得 なんぢの義はなんぢの前にゆき ヱホバの榮光はなんぢの軍後となるべし
9 Then shall you cry, and God shall listen to you; while you are yet speaking he will say, Behold, I am here. If you remove from you the band, and the stretching forth of the hands, and murmuring speech;
また汝よぶときはヱホバ答へたまはん なんぢ叫ぶときは我ここに在りといひ給はん/もし汝のなかより軛をのぞき指點をのぞき惡きことをかたるを除き
10 and [if] you give bread to the hungry from your heart, and satisfy the afflicted soul; then shall your light spring up in darkness, and your darkness [shall be] as noon-day:
なんぢの靈魂の欲するものをも饑たる者にほどこし 苦しむものの心を滿足しめば なんぢの光くらきにてりいで なんぢの闇は晝のごとくならん
11 and your God shall be with you continually, and you shall be satisfied according as your soul desires; and your bones shall be made fat, and shall be as a well-watered garden, and as a fountain [from] which the water has not failed.
ヱホバは常になんぢをみちびき 乾けるところにても汝のこころを滿足しめ なんぢの骨をかたうし給はん なんぢは潤ひたる園のごとく水のたえざる泉のごとくなるべし
12 And your old waste desert [places] shall be built up, and your foundations shall last through all generations; and you shall be called a repairer of breaches, and you shall cause your paths between to be in peace.
汝よりいづる者はひさしく荒廢れたる所をおこし なんぢは累代やぶれたる基をたてん 人なんぢをよびて破隙をおぎなふ者といひ 市街をつくろひてすむべき所となす者といふべし
13 If you turn away your foot from the sabbath, so as not to do your pleasure on the holy days, and shall call the sabbaths delightful, holy to God; [if] you shall not lift up your foot to work, nor speak a word in anger out of your mouth,
もし安息日になんぢの歩行をとどめ 我聖日になんぢの好むわざをおこなはず 安息日をとなへて樂日となし ヱホバの聖日をとなへて尊むべき日となし 之をたふとみて己が道をおこなはず おのが好むわざをなさず おのが言をかたらずば
14 then shall you trust on the Lord; and he shall bring you up to the good places of the land, and feed you with the heritage of Jacob your father: for the mouth of the Lord has spoken this.
その時なんぢヱホバを樂しむべし ヱホバなんぢを地のたかき處にのらしめ なんぢが先祖ヤコブの產業をもて汝をやしなひ給はん こはヱホバ口より語りたまへるなり
