Zechariah 1
1 In the eighth month, in the second year of king Darius, the word of the Lord came to Zacharias the son of Barachias, the son of Addo, the prophet, saying:
ダリヨスの二年八月のヱホバの言イドの子ベレキヤの子なる預言者ゼカリヤに臨めり云く
2 The Lord hath been exceeding angry with your fathers.
ヱホバいたく汝らの父等を怒りたまへり
3 And thou shalt say to them: Thus saith the Lord of hosts: Turn ye to me, saith the Lord of hosts: and I will turn to you, saith the Lord of hosts.
萬軍のヱホバかく言ふと汝かれらに告よ萬軍のヱホバ言ふ汝ら我に歸れ萬軍のヱホバいふ我も汝らに歸らん
4 Be not as your fathers, to whom the former prophets have cried, saying: Thus saith the Lord of hosts: Turn ye from your evil ways, and from your wicked thoughts: but they did not give ear, neither did they hearken to me, saith the Lord.
汝らの父等のごとくならざれ前の預言者等かれらに向ひて呼はりて言り萬軍のヱホバかく言たまふ請ふ汝らその惡き道を離れその惡き行を棄てて歸れと然るに彼等は聽ず耳を我に傾けざりきヱホバこれを言ふ
5 Your fathers, where are they? and the prophets, shall they live always?
汝らの父等は何處にありや預言者たち永遠に生んや
6 But yet my words, and my ordinances, which I gave in charge to my servants the prophets, did they not take hold of your fathers, and they returned, and said: As the Lord of hosts thought to do to us according to our ways, and according to our devices, so he hath done to us.
然ながら我僕なる預言者等に我が命じたる吾言とわが法度とは汝らの父等に追及たるに非ずや然ゆゑに彼らかへりて言り萬軍のヱホバ我らの道に循ひ我らの行に循ひて我らに爲んと思ひたまひし事を我らに爲たまへりと
7 In the four and twentieth day of the eleventh month which is called Sabath, in the second year of Darius, the word of the Lord came to Zacharias the son of Barachias, the son of Addo, the prophet, saying:
ダリヨスの二年十一月すなはちセバテといふ月の二十四日にヱホバの言イドの子ベレキヤの子なる預言者ゼカリヤに臨めり云く
8 I saw by night, and behold a man riding upon a red horse, and he stood among the myrtle trees, that were in the bottom: and behind him were horses, red, speckled, and white.
我夜觀しに一箇の人赤馬に乗て谷の裏なる鳥拈樹の中に立ちその後に赤馬駁馬白馬をる
9 And I said: What are these, my Lord? and the angel that spoke in me, said to me: I will shew thee what these are:
我わが主よ是等は何ぞやと問けるに我と語ふ天の使われにむかひて是等の何なるをわれ汝に示さんと言り
10 And the man that stood among the myrtle trees answered, and said: These are they, whom the Lord hath sent to walk through the earth.
鳥拈樹の中に立る人答へて言けるは是等は地上を遍く歩かしめんとてヱホバの遣したまひし者なりと
11 And they answered the angel of the Lord, that stood among the myrtle trees, and said: We have walked through the earth, and behold all the earth is inhabited, and is at rest.
彼ら答へて鳥拈樹の中に立るヱホバの使に言けるは我ら地上を行めぐり觀しに全地は穩にして安し
12 And the angel of the Lord answered, and said: O Lord of hosts, how long wilt thou not have mercy on Jerusalem, and on the cities of Juda, with which thou hast been angry? this is now the seventieth year.
ヱホバの使こたへて言ふ萬軍のヱホバよ汝いつまでヱルサレムとユダの邑々を恤みたまはざるか汝はこれを怒りたまひてすでに七十年になりぬと
13 And the Lord answered the angel, that spoke in me, good words, comfortable words.
ヱホバ我と語ふ天の使に嘉事慰事をもて答へたまへり
14 And the angel that spoke in me, said to me: Cry thou, saying: Thus saith the Lord of hosts: I am zealous for Jerusalem, and Sion with a great zeal.
かくて我と語ふ天の使我に言けるは汝呼はりて言へ萬軍のヱホバかく言たまふ我ヱルサレムのためシオンのために甚だしく心を熱して嫉妬おもひ
15 And I am angry with a great anger with the wealthy nations: for I was angry a little, but they helped forward the evil.
安居せる國々の民を太く怒る其は我すこしく怒りしに彼ら力を出して之に害を加へたればなり
16 Therefore thus saith the Lord: I will return to Jerusalem in mercies: my house shall be built in it, saith the Lord of hosts: and the building line shall be stretched forth upon Jerusalem.
ヱホバかく言ふ是故に我憐憫をもてヱルサレムに歸る萬軍のヱホバのたまふ我室その中に建られ量繩ヱルサレムに張られん
17 Cry yet, saying: Thus saith the Lord of hosts: My cities shall yet flow with good things: and the Lord will yet comfort Sion, and he will yet choose Jerusalem.
汝また呼はりて言へ萬軍のヱホバかく宣ふ我邑々には再び嘉物あふれんヱホバふたたびシオンを慰め再びヱルサレムを簡びたまふべしと
18 And I lifted up my eyes, and saw: and behold four horns.
かくて我目を擧て觀しに四の角ありければ
19 And I said to the angel that spoke to me: What are these? And he said to me: These are the horns that have scattered Juda, and Israel, and Jerusalem.
我に語ふ天の使に是等は何なるやと問しに彼われに答へけるは是等はユダ、イスラエルおよびヱルサレムを散したる角なりと
20 And the Lord shewed me four smiths.
時にヱホバ四箇の鍛冶を我に見し給へり
21 And I said: What come these to do? and he spoke, saying: These are the horns which have scattered Juda every man apart, and none of them lifted up his head: and these are come to fray them, to cast down the horns of the nations, that have lifted up the horn upon the land of Juda to scatter it.
我是等は何を爲んとて來れるやと問しに斯こたへ給へり是等の角はユダを散して人にその頭を擧しめざりし者なるが今この四箇の者來りて之を威しかのユダの地にむかひて角を擧て之を散せし諸國の角を擲たんとす
