< Jeremiah 15 >
1 And Jehovah said unto me, Though Moses and Samuel stood before me, my soul [would] not [turn] toward this people. Send [them] out of my sight, and let them go forth.
ヱホバ我にいひたまひけるはたとひモーセとサムエルわが前にたつとも我こころは斯民を顧ざるべしかれらを我前より逐ひていでさらしめよ
2 And it shall come to pass, if they say unto thee, Whither shall we go forth? then thou shalt tell them, Thus saith Jehovah: Such as are for death, to death; and such as are for the sword, to the sword; and such as are for the famine, to the famine; and such as are for captivity, to captivity.
彼らもし汝にわれら何處にいでさらんやといはば汝彼らにヱホバかくいへりといへ死に定められたる者は死にいたり劍に定められたる者は劍にいたり饑饉に定められたる者は饑饉にいたり虜に定められたる者は虜にいたるべしと
3 For I will visit them with four kinds [of punishments], saith Jehovah: the sword to slay, and dogs to tear, and the fowl of the heavens, and the beasts of the earth, to devour and to destroy.
ヱホバ云たまひけるはわれ四の物をもて彼らを罰せんすなはち劍をもて戮し犬をもて噬せ天空の鳥および地の獸をもて食ひ滅さしめん
4 And I will give them over to be driven hither and thither amongst all the kingdoms of the earth, because of Manasseh the son of Hezekiah, king of Judah, for that which he did in Jerusalem.
またユダの王ヒゼキヤの子マナセがヱルサレムになせし事によりわれ彼らをして地のすべての國に艱難をうけしめん
5 For who shall have pity upon thee, Jerusalem? and who shall bemoan thee? and who shall turn aside to ask after thy welfare?
ヱルサレムよ誰か汝を憐まんたれか汝のために嘆かん誰かちかづきて汝の安否を問はん
6 Thou hast cast me off, saith Jehovah, thou art gone backward; and I have stretched out my hand against thee, and will destroy thee: I am become weary of repenting.
ヱホバいひたまふ汝われをすてたり汝退けり故にわれ手を汝のうへに伸て汝を滅さんわれ憫に倦り
7 And I will fan them with a fan in the gates of the land; I will bereave of children [and] destroy my people: they have not returned from their ways.
われ風扇をもて我民をこの地の門に煽がんかれらは其途を離れざるによりて我その子を絕ち彼らを滅すべし
8 Their widows are increased to me more than the sand of the seas; I have brought upon them, against the mother of the young men, a spoiler at noonday; I have caused anguish and terror to fall upon her suddenly.
彼らの寡婦はわが前に海濱の沙よりも多し晝われほろぼす者を携へきたりて彼らと壯者の母とをせめ驚駭と恐懼を突然にかれの上におこさん
9 She that hath borne seven languisheth, she hath given up the ghost; her sun is gone down while it is yet day; she is put to shame and confounded. And the residue of them will I give up to the sword before their enemies, saith Jehovah.
七人の子をうみし婦は衰へて氣たえ尚晝なるにその日は早く沒る彼は辱められて面をあからめん其餘れる者はわれ之をその敵の劍に付さんとヱホバいひたまふ
10 Woe is me, my mother, that thou hast borne me a man of strife and a man of contention to the whole land! I have not lent on usury, nor have they lent to me on usury; [yet] every one of them doth curse me.
嗚呼われは禍なるかな我母よ汝なに故に我を生しや全國の人我と爭ひ我を攻むわれ人に貸さず人また我に貸さず皆我を詛ふなり
11 Jehovah said, Verily I will set thee free for [thy] good; verily I will cause the enemy to meet thee kindly in the time of evil and in the time of affliction.
ヱホバいひたまひけるは我實に汝に益をえせしめんために汝を惱す我まことに敵をして其艱の時と災の時に汝に求むることをなさしめん
12 Will iron break? iron from the north? and bronze?
鐵いかで北の鐵と銅を碎かんや
13 Thy substance and thy treasures will I give to the spoil without price, and that for all thy sins, and in all thy borders;
われ汝の資產と汝の資財を擄掠物とならしめ價をうることなからしめん是汝のすべての罪によるなりすべて汝の境のうちにかくなさん
14 and I will make [them] to pass with thine enemies into a land that thou knowest not: for a fire is kindled in mine anger; it shall burn upon you.
われ汝の敵をして汝を汝の識ざる地にとらへ移さしめん夫我怒によりて火燃え汝を焚んとするなり
15 Jehovah, thou knowest: remember me, and visit me, and avenge me of my persecutors; in thy long-suffering take me not away: know that for thy sake I bear reproach.
ヱホバよ汝これを知りたまふ我を憶え我をかへりみたまへ我を迫害るものに仇を復したまへ汝の容忍によりて我をとらへられしむる勿れ我汝の爲に辱を受るを知りたまへ
16 Thy words were found, and I did eat them, and thy words were unto me the joy and rejoicing of my heart; for I am called by thy name, O Jehovah, God of hosts.
われ汝の言を得て之を食へり汝の言はわが心の欣喜快樂なり萬軍の神ヱホバよわれは汝の名をもて稱へらるるなり
17 I sat not in the assembly of the mockers, nor exulted: I sat alone because of thy hand; for thou hast filled me with indignation.
われ嬉笑者の會に坐せずまた喜ばずわれ汝の手によりて獨り坐す汝憤怒をもて我に充したまへり
18 Why is my pain perpetual, and my wound incurable? It refuseth to be healed. Wilt thou be altogether unto me as a treacherous [spring], [as] waters that fail?
何故にわが痛は息ずわが傷は重くして愈ざるか汝はわれにおけること水をたもたずして人を欺く溪河のごとくなるや
19 Therefore thus saith Jehovah: If thou return, then will I bring thee again, thou shalt stand before me; and if thou take forth the precious from the vile, thou shalt be as my mouth. Let them return unto thee; but return not thou unto them.
是をもてヱホバかくいひたまへり汝もし歸らば我また汝をかへらしめて我前に立しめん汝もし賤をすてて貴をいださば我口のごとくならん彼らは汝に歸らんされど汝は彼らにかへる勿れ
20 And I will make thee unto this people a strong brazen wall; and they shall fight against thee, but they shall not prevail against thee: for I am with thee, to save thee and to deliver thee, saith Jehovah;
われ汝をこの民の前に堅き銅の牆となさんかれら汝を攻るとも汝にかたざるべしそはわれ汝と偕にありて汝をたすけ汝を救へばなりとヱホバいひたまへり
21 yea, I will deliver thee out of the hand of the wicked, and I will redeem thee out of the hand of the terrible.
我汝を惡人の手より救ひとり汝を怖るべき者の手より放つべし
