Jeremiah 35
1 The word that came to Jeremias from the Lord in the days of Joakim the son of Josias king of Juda, saying:
ユダの王ヨシヤの子ヱホヤキムの時ヱレミヤにのぞみしヱホバの言いふ
2 Go to the house of the Rechabites: and speak to them, and bring them into the house of the Lord, into one of the chambers of the treasures, and thou shalt give them wine to drink.
汝レカブ人の家に往て彼らとかたり彼らをヱホバの室の一房に携きたりて酒をのませよと
3 And I took Jezonias the son of Jeremias the son of Habsanias, and his brethren, and all his sons, and the whole house of the Rechabites.
是に於てわれハバジニヤの子なるヱレミヤの子ヤザニヤとその兄弟とその諸子およびレカブ人の全家を取り
4 And I brought them into the house of the Lord, to the treasure house of the sons of Hanan, the son of Jegedelias the man of God, which was by the treasure house of the princes, above the treasure of Maasias the son of Sellum, who was keeper of the entry.
これをヱホバの室にあるハナンの諸子の房につれきたれりハナンはイグダリヤの子にして神の人なり其房は牧伯等の房の次にして門を守るシヤレムの子マアセヤの房のうへに在り
5 And I set before the sons of the house of the Rechabites pots full of wine, and cups: and I said to them: Drink ye wine.
我すなはちレカブ人の家の諸子の前に酒を滿したる壺と杯を置き彼らに告て汝ら酒を飮めといひければ
6 And they answered: We will not drink wine: because Jonadab the son of Rechab, our father, commanded us, saying: You shall drink no wine, neither you, nor your children, for ever:
彼らこたへけるは我儕は酒をのまず蓋レカブの子なる我らの先祖ヨナダブ我らに命じて汝等と汝らの子孫はいつまでも酒をのむべからず
7 Neither shall ye build houses, nor sow seed, nor plant vineyards, nor have any: but you shall dwell in tents all your days, that you may live many days upon the face of the earth, in which you are strangers.
また汝ら屋を建ず種をまかず葡萄園を植ざれ亦これを有べからず汝らの生存ふるあひだ幕屋にをれ然らば汝らが寄寓ところの地に於て汝らの生命長からんと云たればなり
8 Therefore we have obeyed the voice of Jonadab the son of Rechab, our father, in all things that he commanded us: so as to drink no wine all our days: neither we, nor our wives, nor our sons, nor our daughters:
斯我らはレカブの子なるわれらの先祖ヨナダブの凡て命ぜし言に遵ひて我儕とわれらの妻と子女は生存ふるあひだ酒を飮ず
9 Nor to build houses to dwell in, nor to have vineyard, or field, or seed:
我らは住べき屋を建てず葡萄園も田野も種も有ずして
10 But we have dwelt in tents, and have been obedient according to all that Jonadab our father commanded us.
幕屋にをりすべて我儕の先祖ヨナダブが我らに命ぜしごとく行へり
11 But when Nabuchodonosor king of Babylon came up to our land, we said: Come, let us go into Jerusalem from the face of the army of the Chaldeans, and from the face of the army of Syria: and we have remained in Jerusalem.
然どバビロンの王ネブカデネザルがこの地に上り來りしとき我ら云けるは我らカルデヤ人の軍勢とスリア人の軍勢を畏るれば去來ヱルサレムにゆかんとすなはち我らはヱルサレムに住へり
12 And the word of the Lord came to Jeremias, saying:
時にヱホバの言ヱレミヤにのぞみていふ
13 Thus saith the Lord of hosts the God of Israel: Go, and say to the men of Juda, and to the inhabitants of Jerusalem: Will you not receive instruction, to obey my words, saith the Lord?
萬軍のヱホバ、イスラエルの神かくいふ汝ゆきてユダの人々とヱルサレムに住る者とに告よヱホバいひたまふ汝らは我言を聽て敎を受ざるか
14 The words of Jonadab the son of Rechab, by which he commanded his sons not to drink wine, have prevailed: and they have drunk none to this day, because they have obeyed the commandment of their father: but I have spoken to you, rising early and speaking, and you have not obeyed me.
レカブの子ヨナダブがその子孫に酒をのむべからずと命ぜし言は行はる彼らは今日に至るまで酒をのまず其先祖の命令に遵ふなり然るに汝らは吾汝らに語り頻りに語れども我にきかざるなり
15 And I have sent to you all my servants the prophets, rising early, and sending and saying: Return ye every man from his wicked way, and make your ways good: and follow not strange gods, nor worship them, and you shall dwell in the land, which I gave you and your fathers: and you have not inclined your ear, nor hearkened to me.
我また我僕なる預言者たちを汝らに遣し頻りにこれを遣していはせけるは汝らいまおのおの其惡き道を離れて歸り汝らの行をあらためよ他の神に從ひて之に奉ふる勿れ然ば汝らはわが汝らと汝らの先祖に與へたるこの地に住ことをえんと然ど汝らは耳を傾けず我にきかざりき
16 So the sons of Jonadab the son of Rechab have constantly kept the commandment of their father, which he commanded them: but this people hath not obeyed me.
レカブの子ヨナダブの子孫はその先祖が彼らに命ぜしところの命令に遵ふなり然ど此民は我に聽ず
17 Therefore thus saith the Lord of hosts the God of Israel: Behold I will bring upon Juda, and upon all the inhabitants of Jerusalem all the evil that I have pronounced against them, because I have spoken to them, and they have not heard: I have called to them, and they have not answered me.
この故に萬軍の神ヱホバ、イスラエルの神かくいふ視よわれユダとヱルサレムに住る者とに我彼らにつきていひし所の災を降さん我かれらに語れども聽ずかれらを召ども應へざればなり
18 And Jeremias said to the house of the Rechabites: Thus saith the Lord of hosts the God of Israel: Because you have obeyed the commandment of Jonadab your father, and have kept all his precepts, and have done all that he commanded you:
茲にヱレミヤ、レカブ人の家にいひけるは萬軍のヱホバ、イスラエルの神かくいひたまふ汝らはその先祖ヨナダブの命に遵ひその凡の誡を守り彼が汝らに命ぜしことを行ふ
19 Therefore thus saith the Lord of host the God of Israel: There shall not be wanting a man of the race of Jonadab the son of Rechab, standing before me for ever.
是によりて萬軍のヱホバ、イスラエルの神かくいひたまふレカブの子ヨナダブには我前に立つ人いつまでも缺ることあらじ
