Jeremiah 44
1 The word that came to Jeremiah concerning all the Jews who dwelt in the land of Egypt, who dwelt at Migdol, and at Tahpanhes, and at Noph, and in the country of Pathros, saying,
エジプトの地に住るところのユダの人衆すなはちミグドル、タパネス、ノフ、パテロスの地に住る者の事につきてヱレミヤに臨みし言に曰く
2 Thus saith Jehovah of hosts, the God of Israel: Ye have seen all the evil that I have brought upon Jerusalem, and upon all the cities of Judah; and behold they are, this day, a waste, and no man dwelleth therein,
萬軍のヱホバ、イスラエルの神かくいふ汝らは我ヱルサレムとユダの諸邑に降せしところの災をみたり視よこれらは今日すでに空曠となりて住む人なし
3 because of their wickedness which they have committed to provoke me to anger, in that they went to burn incense to serve other gods which they knew not, they, [nor] ye, nor your fathers.
こは彼ら惡をなして我を怒らせしによる即ちかれらは己も汝らも汝らの先祖等も識ざるところの他の神にゆきて香を焚き且これに奉へたり
4 And I sent unto you all my servants the prophets, rising early and sending, saying, Oh, do not this abominable thing which I hate!
われ我僕なる預言者たちを汝らに遣し頻にこれを遣して請ふ汝らわが嫌ふところの此憎むべき事を行ふ勿れといはせけるに
5 But they hearkened not, nor inclined their ear to turn from their wickedness, to burn no incense unto other gods.
彼ら聽かず耳を傾けず他の神に香を焚きてその惡を離れざりし
6 And my fury and mine anger was poured forth, and was kindled in the cities of Judah and in the streets of Jerusalem; and they are become a waste, a desolation, as at this day.
是によりて我震怒とわが憤恨ユダの諸邑とヱルサレムの街にそそぎて之を焚たれば其等は今日のごとく荒れかつ傾圮たり
7 And now thus saith Jehovah the God of hosts, the God of Israel: Wherefore commit ye great evil against your souls, to cut off from you man and woman, infant and suckling, out of the midst of Judah, to leave you no remnant;
萬軍の神イスラエルの神ヱホバいまかくいふ汝ら何なれば大なる惡をなして己の靈魂を害しユダの中より汝らの男と女と孩童と乳哺子を絕て一人も遺らざらしめんとするや
8 provoking me to anger with the works of your hands, burning incense unto other gods in the land of Egypt, whither ye are come to sojourn, that ye should be cut off, and that ye should be a curse and a reproach among all the nations of the earth?
何なれば汝ら其手の行爲をもて我を怒らせ汝らが往て住ふところのエジプトの地に於て他の神に香を焚きて己の身を滅し地の萬國の中に呪詛となり凌辱とならんとするや
9 Have ye forgotten the wickedness of your fathers, and the wickedness of the kings of Judah, and the wickedness of their wives, and your own wickedness, and the wickedness of your wives, which they have committed in the land of Judah and in the streets of Jerusalem?
ユダの地とヱルサレムの街にて行ひし汝らの先祖等の惡ユダの王等の惡其妻等の惡および汝らの身の惡汝らの妻等の惡を汝ら忘れしや
10 They are not humbled unto this day, neither have they feared, nor walked in my law, nor in my statutes which I set before you and before your fathers.
彼らは今日にいたるまで悔いずまた畏れず汝らと汝らの先祖等の前に立たる我律法とわが典例に循ひて行まざるなり
11 Therefore thus saith Jehovah of hosts, the God of Israel: Behold, I will set my face against you for evil, and to cut off all Judah.
是故に萬軍のヱホバ、イスラエルの神かくいふ視よわれ面を汝らにむけて災を降しユダの人衆を悉く絕ん
12 And I will take the remnant of Judah, that have set their faces to enter into the land of Egypt to sojourn there, and they shall all be consumed: in the land of Egypt shall they fall; they shall be consumed by the sword [and] by the famine, from the least even unto the greatest; they shall die by the sword and by the famine, and they shall be an execration, an astonishment, and a curse, and a reproach.
又われエジプトの地にすまんとてその面をこれにむけて往しところの彼ユダの遺れる者を取らん彼らは皆滅されてエジプトの地に仆れん彼らは劍と饑饉に滅され微者も大者も劍と饑饉によりて死べし而して呪詛となり詫異となり罵詈となり凌辱とならん
13 And I will punish them that dwell in the land of Egypt as I have punished Jerusalem, by the sword, by the famine, and by the pestilence;
われヱルサレムを罰せし如く劍と饑饉と疫病をもてエジプトに住る者を罰すべし
14 and none of the remnant of Judah, that have come into the land of Egypt to sojourn there, shall escape or remain, so as to return into the land of Judah, whither they have a desire to return to dwell there; for none shall return but such as shall escape.
是をもてエジプトの地に往て彼處に住るところのユダの遺れる者の中に一人も逃れまたは遺りてその心にしたひて歸り住はんとねがふところのユダの地に歸るもの無るべし逃るる者の外には歸る者無るべし
15 Then all the men who knew that their wives burned incense to other gods, and all the women who stood by, a great assemblage, even all the people that dwelt in the land of Egypt, in Pathros, answered Jeremiah, saying,
是に於てその妻が香を他の神に焚しことを知れる人々および其處に立てる婦人等の大なる群衆並にエジプトの地のパテロスに住るところの民ヱレミヤに答へて云けるは
16 [As for] the word that thou hast spoken unto us in the name of Jehovah, we will not hearken unto thee,
汝がヱホバの名をもてわれらに述し言は我ら聽かじ
17 but we will certainly do every word that is gone forth out of our mouth, to burn incense to the queen of the heavens, and to pour out drink-offerings to her, as we have done, we and our fathers, our kings and our princes, in the cities of Judah and in the streets of Jerusalem; and we had plenty of bread, and were well, and saw no evil.
我らは必ず我らの口より出る言を行ひ我らが素なせし如く香を天后に焚きまた酒をその前に灌ぐべし即ちユダの諸邑とヱルサレムの街にて我らと我らの先祖等および我らの王等と我らの牧伯等の行ひし如くせん當時われらは糧に飽き福をえて災に遇ざりし
18 But since we left off burning incense to the queen of the heavens, and pouring out drink-offerings to her, we have wanted everything, and have been consumed by the sword and by the famine.
我ら天后に香を焚くことを止め酒をその前に灌がずなりし時より諸の物に乏しくなり劍と饑饉に滅されたり
19 And when we burned incense to the queen of the heavens and poured out drink-offerings to her, did we make for her cakes to portray her, and pour out drink-offerings to her, without our husbands?
我らが天后に香を焚き酒をその前に灌ぐに方りて之に象りてパンを製り酒を灌ぎしは我らの夫等の許せし事にあらずや
20 And Jeremiah said unto all the people, to the men, and to the women, and to all the people that had given him that answer, saying,
ヱレミヤ即ち男女の諸の人衆および此言をもて答へたる諸の民にいひけるは
21 Is it not the incense that ye burned in the cities of Judah and in the streets of Jerusalem, ye and your fathers, your kings and your princes and the people of the land, that Jehovah remembered, and that came into his mind?
ユダの諸邑とヱルサレムの街にて汝らと汝らの先祖等および汝等の王等と汝らの牧伯等および其地の民の香を焚しことはヱホバ之を憶えまた心に思ひたまふにあらずや
22 And Jehovah could no longer bear, because of the evil of your doings, [and] because of the abominations that ye had committed; and your land is become a waste, and an astonishment, and a curse, without inhabitant, as at this day.
ヱホバは汝らの惡き爲のため汝らの憎むべき行の爲に再び忍ぶことをえせざりきこの故に汝らの地は今日のごとく荒地となり詫異となり呪詛となり住む人なき地となれり
23 Because ye have burned incense, and because ye have sinned against Jehovah, and have not hearkened unto the voice of Jehovah, nor walked in his law, nor in his statutes, nor in his testimonies; therefore this evil hath come upon you, as at this day.
汝ら香を焚きヱホバに罪を犯しヱホバの聲に聽したがはずその律法と憲法と證詞に循ひて行まざりしに由て今日のごとく此災汝らにおよべり
24 And Jeremiah said unto all the people, and to all the women, Hear ye the word of Jehovah, all Judah that are in the land of Egypt.
ヱレミヤまたすべての民と婦等にいひけるはエジプトの地に居るユダの子孫よヱホバの言をきけ
25 Thus saith Jehovah of hosts, the God of Israel, saying, Ye and your wives have both spoken with your mouths, and fulfilled with your hands, saying, We will certainly perform our vows which we have vowed, to burn incense to the queen of the heavens, and to pour out drink-offerings unto her. Ye will certainly establish your vows, and entirely perform your vows.
萬軍のヱホバ、イスラエルの神かくいひたまふ汝らと汝らの妻等は口をもていひ手をもて成し我ら香を天后に焚き酒を灌ぎて立しところの誓を必ず成就んといふ汝ら必ず誓をたてかならず其誓を成就んとす
26 Therefore hear ye the word of Jehovah, all Judah that dwell in the land of Egypt: Behold, I have sworn by my great name, saith Jehovah, that my name shall no more be named in the mouth of any man of Judah in all the land of Egypt, saying, [As] the Lord Jehovah liveth.
この故にエジプトの地に住るユダの人々よヱホバの言をきけヱホバいひたまふわれ我大なる名を指て誓ふエジプトの全地にユダの人々一人もその口に主ヱホバは活くといひて再び我名を稱ふることなきにいたらん
27 Behold, I will watch over them for evil, and not for good; and all the men of Judah that are in the land of Egypt shall be consumed by the sword and by the famine, until there be an end of them.
視よわれ彼らをうかがはん是福をあたふる爲にあらず禍をくださん爲なりエジプトの地に居るユダの人々は劍と饑饉に滅びて絕るにいたらん
28 And they that escape the sword shall return out of the land of Egypt into the land of Judah, a very small company; and all the remnant of Judah, that have come into the land of Egypt to sojourn there, shall know whose word shall stand, mine or theirs.
然ど劍を逃るる僅少の者はエジプトの地を出てユダの地に歸らん又エジプトの地にゆきて彼處に寄寓れるユダの遺れる者はその立ところの言は我のなるか彼らのなるかを知るにいたるべし
29 And this shall be the sign unto you, saith Jehovah, that I will punish you in this place, that ye may know that my words shall certainly stand against you for evil:
ヱホバいひ給ふわがこの處にて汝らを罰する兆は是なり我かくして我汝らに禍をくださんといひし言の必ず立ことを知しめん
30 thus saith Jehovah: Behold, I will give Pharaoh-Hophra king of Egypt into the hand of his enemies, and into the hand of them that seek his life; as I gave Zedekiah king of Judah into the hand of Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon, his enemy, and that sought his life.
すなはちヱホバかくいひたまふ視よわれユダの王ゼデキヤを其生命を索むる敵なるバビロンの王ネブカデネザルの手に付せしが如くエジプトの王パロホフラを其敵の手その生命を索むる者の手に付さん
