< Hosea 11 >
1 When Israel was a child, then I loved him, and out of Egypt I called my son.
イスラエルの幼かりしとき我これを愛しぬ我わが子をエジプトより呼いだしたり
2 As they called them, so they went from them: they sacrificed unto the Baals, and burned incense to graven images.
かれらは呼るるに隨ひていよいよその呼者に遠ざかり且もろもろのバアルに犠牲をささげ雕たる偶像に香を焚り
3 And I it was that taught Ephraim to walk, — He took them upon his arms, — but they knew not that I healed them.
われエフライムに歩むことををしへ彼等をわが腕にのせて抱けり然どかれらは我にいやされたるを知ず
4 I drew them with bands of a man, with cords of love; and I was to them as they that take off the yoke on their jaws, and I gently caused them to eat.
われ人にもちゐる索すなはち愛のつなをもて彼等をひけり我がかれらを待ふは軛をその腮より擧のくるもののごとくにして彼等に食物をあたへたり
5 He shall not return into the land of Egypt, but the Assyrian shall be his king; for they refused to return [to me];
かれらはエジプトの地にかへらじ然どかれらがヱホバに歸らざるによりてアッスリヤ人その王とならん
6 and the sword shall turn about in his cities, and shall consume his bars, and devour [them], because of their own counsels.
劍かれらの諸邑にまはりゆきてその關門をこぼち彼らをその謀計の故によりて滅さん
7 Yea, my people are bent upon backsliding from me: though they call them to the Most High, none at all exalteth [him].
わが民はともすれば我にはなれんとする心あり人これを招きて上に在るものに屬しめんとすれども身をおこすもの一人だになし
8 How shall I give thee over, Ephraim? [how] shall I deliver thee up, Israel? how shall I make thee as Admah? [how] shall I set thee as Zeboim? My heart is turned within me, my repentings are kindled together.
エフライムよ我いかで汝をすてんやイスラエルよ我いかで汝をわたさんや我いかで汝をアデマのごとくせんや爭でなんぢをゼボイムのごとく爲んやわが心わが衷にかはりて我の愛憐ことごとく燃おこれり
9 I will not execute the fierceness of mine anger, I will not again destroy Ephraim; for I am God, and not man, — the Holy One in the midst of thee: and I will not come in anger.
我わが烈しき震怒をほどこすことをせじ我かさねてエフライムを滅すことをせじ我は人にあらず神なればなり我は汝のうちにいます聖者なりいかりをもて臨まじ
10 They shall walk after Jehovah; he shall roar like a lion; when he shall roar, then the children shall hasten from the west:
かれらは獅子の吼るごとくに聲を出したまふヱホバに隨ひて歩まんヱホバ聲を出したまへば子等は西より急ぎ來らん
11 they shall hasten as a bird out of Egypt, and as a dove out of the land of Assyria; and I will cause them to dwell in their houses, saith Jehovah.
かれらエジプトより鳥のごとくアッスリヤより鴿のごとくに急ぎ來らん我かれらをその家々に住はしむべし是ヱホバの聖言なり
12 Ephraim encompasseth me about with lies, and the house of Israel with deceit; but Judah yet walketh with God, and with the holy things of truth.
エフライムは謊言をもてイスラエルの家は詐僞をもて我を圍めりユダは神と信ある聖者とに屬きみつかずみ漂蕩をれり
