Jeremiah 21
1 The word that came unto Jeremiah from Jehovah, when king Zedekiah sent unto him Pashur the son of Malchijah, and Zephaniah the son of Maaseiah, the priest, saying,
ゼデキヤ王マルキヤの子パシユルと祭司マアセヤの子ゼパニヤをヱレミヤに遣し
2 Inquire, I pray thee, of Jehovah for us; for Nebuchadrezzar the king of Babylon maketh war against us; if so be that Jehovah will deal with us according to all his marvellous works, that he may go up from us.
バビロンの王ネブカデネザル我らを攻むれば汝われらの爲にヱホバに求めよヱホバ恒のごとくそのもろもろの奇なる跡をもて我らを助けバビロンの王を我らより退かしめたまふことあらんと曰しむ其時ヱホバの言ヱレミヤに臨めり
3 And Jeremiah said unto them, Thus shall ye say to Zedekiah:
ヱレミヤ彼らにこたへけるは汝らゼデキヤにかく語ふべし
4 Thus saith Jehovah the God of Israel: Behold, I will turn back the weapons of war that are in your hands, with which ye fight against the king of Babylon, and against the Chaldeans who besiege you, outside the walls, and I will assemble them into the midst of this city.
イスラエルの神ヱホバかくいひたまふ視よわれ汝らがこの邑の外にありて汝らを攻め圍むところのバビロン王およびカルデヤ人とたたかひて手に持ところのその武器をかへし之を邑のうちに聚めん
5 And I myself will fight against you with a stretched-out hand, and with a strong arm, and in anger, and in fury, and in great wrath.
われ手を伸べ臂をつよくし震怒と憤恨と烈き怒をもて汝らをせむべし
6 And I will smite the inhabitants of this city, both man and beast: they shall die of a great pestilence.
我また此邑にすめる人と畜を撃ん皆重き疫病によりて死べし
7 And afterwards, saith Jehovah, I will give Zedekiah king of Judah, and his servants, and the people, and such as are left in this city from the pestilence, from the sword, and from the famine, into the hand of Nebuchadrezzar the king of Babylon, and into the hand of their enemies, and into the hand of those that seek their life, and he shall smite them with the edge of the sword: he shall not spare them, neither have pity, nor have mercy.
ヱホバいひたまふ此後われユダの王ゼデキヤとその諸臣および民此邑に疫病と劍と饑饉をまぬかれて遺れる者をバビロンの王ネブカデネザルの手と其敵の手および凡そその生命を索る者の手に付さんバビロンの王は劍の刃をもて彼らを撃ちかれらを惜まず顧みず恤れまざるべし
8 And unto this people thou shalt say, Thus saith Jehovah: Behold, I set before you the way of life, and the way of death.
汝また此民にヱホバかくいふと語るべし視よわれ生命の道と死の道を汝らの前に置く
9 He that abideth in this city shall die by the sword, and by the famine, and by the pestilence; but he that goeth out, and deserteth to the Chaldeans that besiege you, he shall live, and his life shall be unto him for a prey.
この邑にとどまる者は劍と饑饉と疫病に死べしされど汝らを攻め圍むところのカルデヤ人に出降る者はいきん其命はおのれの掠取物となるべし
10 For I have set my face against this city for evil, and not for good, saith Jehovah: it shall be given into the hand of the king of Babylon, and he shall burn it with fire.
ヱホバいひたまふ我この邑に面を向しは福をあたふる爲にあらず禍をあたへんが爲なりこの邑はバビロンの王の手に付されん彼火をもて之を焚くべし
11 And touching the house of the king of Judah, hear ye the word of Jehovah.
またユダの王の家に告べし汝らヱホバの言をきけ
12 House of David, thus saith Jehovah: Judge with justice in the morning, and deliver him that is spoiled out of the hand of the oppressor, lest my fury go forth like fire and burn, and there be none to quench it, because of the evil of your doings.
ダビデの家よヱホバかくいふ汝朝ごとに義く鞫をなし物を奪はるる人をその暴逆者の手より救へ否ざれば汝らの行の惡によりて我怒火のごとくに發で燃て滅ざるべし
13 Behold, I am against thee, inhabitress of the valley, the rock of the plain, saith Jehovah; ye that say, Who shall come down against us, or who shall enter into our dwellings?
ヱホバいひたまふ谷と平原の磐とにすめる者よみよ我汝に敵す汝らは誰か降て我儕を攻んや誰かわれらの居處にいらんやといふ
14 And I will visit you according to the fruit of your doings, saith Jehovah; and I will kindle a fire in her forest, and it shall devour all that is round about her.
我汝らをその行の果によりて罰せん又其林に火を起し其四周をことごとく焚つくすべしとヱホバいひたまふ
