Ezekiel 9
1 And he cried in my ears with a loud voice, saying: The visitations of the city are at hand, and every one hath a destroying weapon in his hand.
斯て彼大聲に吾耳に呼はりて言たまふ邑を主どる者等各々剪滅の器具を手にとりて前み來れと
2 And behold six men came from the way of the upper gate, which looketh to the north: and each one had his weapon of destruction in his hand: and there was one man in the midst of them clothed with linen, with a writer’s inkhorn at his reins: and they went in, and stood by the brazen altar.
即ち北にむかへる上の門の路より六人の者おのおの打壞る器具を手にとりて來る其中に一人布の衣を着筆記人の墨盂を腰におぶる者あり彼等來りて銅の壇の傍に立てり
3 And the glory of the Lord of Israel went up from the cherub, upon which he was, to the threshold of the house: and he called to the man that was clothed with linen, and had a writer’s inkhorn at his loins.
爰にイスラエルの神の榮光その居るところのケルブの上より起あがりて家の閾にいたり彼の布の衣を着て腰に筆記人の墨盂をおぶる者を呼ぶ
4 And the Lord said to him: Go through the midst of the city, through the midst of Jerusalem: and mark Thau upon the foreheads of the men that sigh, and mourn for all the abominations that are committed in the midst thereof.
時にヱホバかれに言たまひけるは邑の中ヱルサレムの中を巡れ而して邑の中に行はるるところの諸の憎むべき事のために歎き哀しむ人々の額に記號をつけよと
5 And to the others he said in my hearing: Go ye after him through the city, and strike: let not your eyes spare, nor be ye moved with pity.
我聞に彼またその他の者等にいひたまふ彼にしたがひて邑を巡りて撃てよ汝等の目人を惜み見るべからず憐れむべからず
6 Utterly destroy old and young, maidens, children and women: but upon whomsoever you shall see Thau, kill him not, and begin ye at my sanctuary. So they began at the ancient men who mere before the house.
老人も少者も童女も孩子も婦人も悉く殺すべし然ど身に記號ある者には觸べからず先わが聖所より始めよと彼等すなはち家の前にをりし老人より始む
7 And he said to them: Defile the house, and ill the courts with the slain: go ye forth. And they went forth, and slew them that were in the city.
彼またかれらに言たまふ家を汚し死人をもて庭に充せよ汝等往けよと彼等すなはち出ゆきて邑の中に人を撃つ
8 And the slaughter being ended I was left: and I fell upon my face, and crying, I said: Alas, alas, alas, O Lord God, wilt thou then destroy all the remnant of Israel, by pouring out thy fury upon Jerusalem?
彼等人を撃ちける時我遺されたれば俯伏て叫び言ふ嗚呼主ヱホバよ汝怒をヱルサレムにもらしてイスラエルの殘餘者を悉くほろぼしたまふや
9 And he said to me: The iniquity of the house of Israel, and of Juda, is exceeding great, and the land is filled with blood, and the city is filled with perverseness: for they have said: The Lord hath forsaken the earth, and the Lord seeth not.
彼われに言たまひけるはイスラエルとユダの家の罪甚だ大なり國には血盈ち邑には邪曲充つ即ち彼等いふヱホバは此地を棄てたりヱホバは見ざるなりと
10 Therefore neither shall my eye spare, nor will I have pity: I will requite their way upon their head.
然ば亦わが目かれらを惜み見ず我かれらを憐まじ彼らの行ふところを彼等の首に報いん
11 And behold the man that was clothed with linen, that had the inkhorn at his back, returned the word, saying: I have done as thou hast commanded me.
時にかの布の衣を着て腰に筆記人の墨盂をおぶる人復命まをして言ふ汝が我に命じたまひしごとく爲たりと
