Ezekiel 31
1 And it came to pass in the eleventh year, the third month, the first day of the month, that the word of the Lord came to me, saying:
十一年の三月の一日にヱホバの言我に臨みて云ふ
2 Son of man, speak to Pharao king of Egypt, and to his people: To whom art thou like in thy greatness?
人の子よエジプトの王パロとその群衆に言へ汝はその大なること誰に似たるや
3 Behold, the Assyrian was like a cedar in Libanus, with fair branches, and full of leaves, of a high stature, and his top was elevated among the thick boughs.
アツスリヤはレバノンの香柏のごとし其枝美しくして生茂りその丈高くして其巓雲に至る
4 The waters nourished him, the deep set him up on high, the streams thereof ran round about his roots, and it sent forth its rivulets to all the trees of the country.
水これを大ならしめ大水これを高からしむ其川々その植れる處を環りその流を野の諸の樹に及ぼせり
5 Therefore was his height exalted above all the trees of the country: and his branches were multiplied, and his boughs were elevated because of many waters.
是によりてその長野の諸の樹よりも高くなりその生長にあたりて多の水のために枝葉茂りその枝長く伸たり
6 And when he had spread forth his shadow, all the fowls of the air made their nests in his boughs, and all the beasts of the forest brought forth their young under his branches, and the assembly of many nations dwelt under his shadow.
その枝葉に空の諸の鳥巢をくひ其枝の下に野の諸の獸子を生みその蔭に諸の國民住ふ
7 And he was most beautiful for his greatness, and for the spreading of his branches: for his root was near great waters.
是はその大なるとその枝の長きとに由て美しかりき其根多くの水の傍にありたればなり
8 The cedars in the paradise of God wars not higher than he, the fir trees did not equal his top, neither were the plane trees to be compared with him for branches: no tree in the paradise of God was like him in his beauty.
神の園の香柏これを蔽ふことあたはず樅もその枝葉に及ばず槻もその枝に如ず神の園の樹の中その美しき事これに如ものあらざりき
9 For I made him beautiful and thick set with many branches: and all the trees of pleasure, that were in the paradise of God, envied him.
我これが枝を多してこれを美しくなせりエデンの樹の神の園にある者皆これを羨めり
10 Therefore thus saith the Lord God Because he was exalted in height, and shot up his top green and thick, and his heart was lifted up in his height:
是故に主ヱホバかく言ふ汝その長高くなれり是は其巓雲に至りその心高く驕れば
11 I have delivered him into the hands of the mighty one of the nations, he shall deal with him: I have cast him out according to his wickedness.
我これを萬國の君たる者の手に付さん彼これを處置せん其惡のために我これを打棄たり
12 And strangers, and the most cruel of the nations shall cut him down, and cast him away upon the mountains, and his boughs shall fall in every valley, and his branches shall be broken on every rock of the country: and all the people of the earth shall depart from his shadow, and leave him.
他國人國々の暴き者これを截倒して棄つ其枝葉は山々に谷々に墮ち其枝は碎けて地の諸の谷川にあり地の萬民その蔭を離れてこれを遺つ
13 All the fowls of the air dwelt upon his ruins, and all the beasts of the field were among his branches.
その倒れたる上に空の諸の鳥止まり其枝の上に野の諸の獸居る
14 For which cause none of the trees by the waters shall exalt themselves for their height: nor shoot up their tops among the thick branches and leaves, neither shall any of them that are watered stand up in their height: for they are all delivered unto death to the lowest parts of the earth, in the midst of the children of men, with them that go down into the pit.
是水の邊の樹その高のために誇ることなくその巓を雲に至らしむることなからんためまた水に濕ふ者の高らかに自ら立ことなからんためなり夫是等は皆死に付されて下の國に入り他の人々の中にあり墓に下る者等と偕なるべし
15 Thus saith the Lord God: In the day when he went down to hell, I brought in mourning, I covered him with the deep: and I withheld its rivers, and restrained the many waters: Libanus grieved for him, and all the trees of the field trembled. (Sheol h7585)
主ヱホバかく言たまふ彼が下の國に下れる日に我哀哭あらしめ之がために大水を蓋ひその川々をせきとめたれば大水止まれり我レバノンをして彼のために哭かしめ野の諸の樹をして彼のために痩衰へしむ (Sheol h7585)
16 I shook the nations with the sound of his fall, when I brought him down to hell with them that descend into the pit: and all the trees of pleasure, the choice and best in Libanus, all that were moistened with waters, were comforted in the lowest parts of the earth. (Sheol h7585)
我かれを陰府に投くだして墓に下る者と共ならしむる時に國々をしてその墮る響に震動しめたり又エデンの諸の樹レバノンの勝れたる最美しき者凡て水に濕ふ者皆下の國に於て慰を得たり (Sheol h7585)
17 For they also shall go down with him to hell to them that are slain by the sword: and the arm of every one shall sit down under his shadow in the midst of the nations. (Sheol h7585)
彼等も彼とともに陰府に下り劍に刺れたる者の處にいたる是すなはちその助者となりてその蔭に坐し萬國民の中にをりし者なり (Sheol h7585)
18 To whom art thou like, O thou that art famous and lofty among the trees of pleasure? Behold, thou art brought down with the trees of pleasure to the lowest parts of the earth: thou shalt sleep in the midst of the uncircumcised, with them that are slain by the sword: this is Pharao, and all his multitude, saith the Lord God.
エデンの樹の中にありて汝は其榮とその大なること孰に似たるや汝は斯エデンの樹とともに下の國に投下され劍に刺透されたる者とともに割禮を受ざる者の中にあるべしパロとその群衆は是のごとし主ヱホバこれを言ふ
