< Ezekiel 5 >

1 “Son of man, go and shave your head and your beard using a sharp sword like a barber's razor. Then divide up the hair using a set of scales.
人の子よ汝利き刀を執り之を剃刀となして汝の頭と頷をそり權衡をとりてその毛を分てよ
2 Once the days of the siege have finished, burn up one third of the hair inside the city; slash at another third with a sword around the city; and scatter another third in the wind. I will let loose a sword behind them to chase them.
而して圍城の日の終る時邑の中にて火をもて其三分の一を燒き又三分の一を取り刀をもて邑の周圍を撃ち三分の一を風に散すべし我刀をぬきて其後を追ん
3 Take just a few hairs and tuck them into the hem of your clothes.
汝その毛を少く取りて裾に包み
4 Take some of these and toss them into the fire to burn them. A fire will spread from there to burn everyone in Israel.
又その中を取りてこれを火の中になげいれ火をもて之をやくべし火その中より出てイスラエルの全家におよばん
5 This is what the Lord God says: This represents Jerusalem. I placed her right in the middle of the nations, surrounded by other countries.
主ヱホバかくいひ給ふ我このヱルサレムを萬國の中におき列邦をその四圍に置けり
6 But she rebelled against my rules, acting more wickedly than the nations, and she defied my regulations more than the countries surrounding her. Her people rejected my rules and refused to follow my regulations.
ヱルサレムは異邦よりも惡くわが律法に悖り其四圍の國々よりもわが法憲に悖る即ち彼等はわが律法を蔑如にしわが法憲に歩行まざるなり
7 Consequently this is what the Lord God says: You have caused more trouble than the nations around you. You refused to follow my rules and keep my regulations. In fact you didn't even live up to the standards of the nations surrounding you.
故に主ヱホバかくいひたまふ汝等はその周圍の異邦人よりも甚だしく噪ぎたち吾憲にあゆまず吾法をおこなはず又汝らの周圍なる異邦人の法のごとくに行ふことすらもせざるなり
8 So this is what the Lord God says: Watch out, because it's me who is condemning you, Jerusalem! I'm going to carry out my sentence against you while the other nations watch.
是故に主ヱホバかくいひ給ふ視よ我 われは汝を攻め異邦人の目の前にて汝の中に鞫をおこなはん
9 Because of all the disgusting things you've done, I'm going to do to you what I've never done before—and I won't ever do again.
なんぢの爲せし諸の惡むべき事のために我わが未だ爲ざりしところの事此後ふたたび其ごとく爲ざるべきところの事を汝になさん
10 In your city parents will eat their own children, and children will eat their parents. I'm going to punish you and scatter in every directions those who are left.
是がために汝の中にて父たる者はその子を食ひ子たる者はその父を食はん我汝の中に鞫をおこなひ汝の中の餘れる者を盡く四方の風に散さん
11 As I live, declares the Lord God, because you have made my sanctuary unclean with all your offensive idols and disgusting practices, I will stop treating you well. I won't be kind to you—I won't show you any pity.
是故に主ヱホバいひ給ふ我は活く汝その忌むべき物とその憎むべきところの事とをもてわが聖所を穢したれば我かならず汝を減さん我目なんぢを惜み見ず我なんぢを憐まざるべし
12 A third of your people will die from disease or starvation inside the city; a third will be killed by the sword outside the city walls; and a third I will scatter in the wind in all directions, and let loose a sword behind them to chase them.
汝の三分の一は汝の中において疫病にて死に饑饉にて滅びん又三分の一は汝の四周にて刀に仆れん又三分の一をば我四方の風に散し刀をぬきて其後をおはん
13 Once my anger is over and I've finished punishing them, then I'll be satisfied. When I've finished punishing them, then they'll know that I, the Lord, meant what I said when I spoke so strongly.
斯我怒を洩し盡しわが憤を彼らの上にかうむらせて心を安んぜん我わが憤を彼らの上に洩し盡す時は彼ら我ヱホバの熱心をもてかたりたる事をしるに至らん
14 I'm going to ruin you and humiliate you in front of the nations surrounding you, in the sight of every passer-by.
我汝を荒地となし汝の周圍の國々の中に汝を笑柄となし凡て往來の人の目に斯あらしむべし
15 You will be criticized and mocked, you'll be a warning and something horrifying to the surrounding nations when I carry out my sentence against you in my rage and furious anger. I the Lord have spoken.
我怒と憤と重き責をもて鞫を汝に行ふ時は汝はその周圍の邦々の笑柄となり嘲となり警戒となり驚懼とならん我ヱホバこれを言ふ
16 When I pour down on you deadly arrows of famine and destruction they're intended to kill you. I will make your famine worse by stopping your food supply.
即ち我饑饉の惡き矢を彼等に放たん是は滅亡すための者なり我汝らを滅さんために之を放つべし我なんぢらの上に饑饉を増しくはへ汝らが杖とするところのパンを打碎かん
17 I will send famine and wild animals to attack you. You'll have no children left. Disease and killing will sweep over you, and I will bring armies to attack you. I the Lord have spoken.”
我饑饉と惡き獸を汝等におくらん是汝をして子なき者とならしめん又疫病と血なんぢの間に行わたらん我刀を汝にのぞましむべし我ヱホバこれを言ふ
