Jeremiah 36
1 This message from the Lord came to Jeremiah in the fourth year of the reign of Jehoiakim son of Josiah king of Judah:
ユダの王ヨシヤの子ヱホヤキムの四年にこの言ヱホバよりヱレミヤに臨みていふ
2 Get a scroll and write down everything I've told you condemning Israel, Judah, and all the other nations, from the time I first spoke to you during the reign of Josiah right up till now.
汝卷物をとり我汝に語りし日即ちヨシヤの日より今日に至るまでイスラエルとユダと萬國とにつきてわが汝に語りしすべての言を之に錄せ
3 Maybe when the people of Judah hear about all the disasters I plan to bring down on them, everyone will stop their evil ways. Then I will forgive their guilt and sin.
ユダの家わが降さんと擬るところの災をききて各自その惡き途をはなれて轉ることもあらん然ばわれ其愆とその罪を赦すべし
4 So Jeremiah called Baruch son of Neriah to come, and while Jeremiah dictated, Baruch wrote down on a scroll everything that the Lord had told Jeremiah.
是に於てヱレミヤ、ネリヤの子バルクを召べりバルクすなはちヱレミヤの口にしたがひヱホバの彼に告たまひし言をことごとく卷物に錄せり
5 Then Jeremiah gave Baruch these instructions: “I'm a prisoner here so I can't go into the Lord's Temple.
ヱレミヤ、バルクに云ひけるはわれは禁錮られたればヱホバの室に往くことを得ず
6 So you have to go to the Lord's Temple on a day when people are fasting, and read to them the Lord's messages from the scroll I dictated to you. Read them to all the people of Judah who come in from their towns.
故に汝ゆきて汝が我の口にしたがひて卷物に錄したるヱホバの言をよみ斷食の日にヱホバの室に於て民の耳にこれを聽しめよまた之を讀みてユダの人々のその邑々より來れる者の耳に聽しむべし
7 Maybe they will come and ask the Lord for forgiveness, and all of them will stop their evil ways, for the Lord is threatening terrible anger against them.”
彼らヱホバの前にその祈禱を献り各自其惡き途をはなれて轉ることもあらんヱホバの此民につきてのべたまひし怒と憤は大なり
8 Baruch son of Neriah did exactly what Jeremiah the prophet had told him to do. He went and read the Lord's message from the scroll in the Temple.
斯てネリヤの子バルクは凡て預言者ヱレミヤが己に命ぜしごとくヱホバの室にてその卷物よりヱホバの言を讀り
9 This is how it happened. A fast to honor the Lord was declared involving all the people of Jerusalem and everyone who had come there from the towns of Judah. This was in the ninth month of the fifth year of the reign of Jehoiakim son of Josiah king of Judah.
ユダの王ヨシヤの子ヱホヤキムの五年九月ヱルサレムの諸の民およびユダの諸邑よりヱルサレムに來れる諸の民にヱホバの前に斷食を行ふべきこと宣示さる
10 Baruch read from the scroll what Jeremiah had dictated so that everyone could hear. He read it from the room of Gemariah son of Shaphan the scribe. This was in the upper Temple courtyard at the New Gate entrance.
バルク、ヱホバの室の上庭に於てヱホバの室の新しき門の入口の旁にあるシヤパンの子なる書記ゲマリヤの房にてその書よりヱレミヤの言を民に讀きかせたり
11 When Micaiah son of Gemariah, son of Shaphan, heard all the Lord's messages read from the scroll,
シヤパンの子なるゲマリヤの子ミカヤその書のヱホバの言を盡くききて
12 he went down to the royal secretary's room in the king's palace, where all the officials had gathered. Elishama the secretary, Delaiah son of Shemaiah, Elnathan son of Achbor, Gemariah son of Shaphan, Zedekiah son of Hananiah, and all the other officials were there.
王の宮にある書記の房にくだりいたるに諸の牧伯等即ち書記エリシヤマ、シマヤの子デラヤ、アカボルの子エルナタン、シヤパンの子ゲマリヤ、ハナニヤの子ゼデキヤおよび諸の牧伯等そこに坐せり
13 Micaiah gave them a report of everything he'd heard Baruch read from the scroll to the people.
ミカヤ、バルクが書を讀て民の耳に聽せしときに己が聽しところのすべての言を彼らに告ければ
14 The officials sent Jehudi son of Nethaniah, son of Shelemiah, son of Cushi, to summon Baruch, telling him, “Bring the scroll that you read to the people, and come here.” So Baruch went to see them taking the scroll with him.
牧伯等クシの子シレミヤの子なるネタニヤの子エホデをバルクに遣はしていはせけるは汝が民に讀きかせしその卷物を手に取て來れとネリヤの子バルクすなはち手に卷物を取りて彼らの許にきたりたれば
15 “Please sit down and read it to us,” they said. So Baruch read it to them.
彼らバルクにいひけるは請ふ坐して之を我らに讀きかせよとバルクすなはち彼らに讀聞せたり
16 After they'd heard everything, they were frightened and looked at each other. They said to Baruch, “We've got to tell the king about all this.”
彼らその諸の言をききて倶に懼れバルクにいひけるは我ら必ずこの諸の言を王に告んと
17 Then they asked Baruch, “Now tell us, how did you come to write all this? Did Jeremiah dictate it to you?”
またバルクに問ていひけるは請ふ汝いかにこの諸の言をかれの口にしたがひて錄せしや我らに告よ
18 “Yes, he dictated it,” Baruch replied. “I wrote down in ink on the scroll everything he told me.”
バルク答へけるは彼その口をもてこの諸の言を我に述べたればわれ墨をもて之を書に錄せり
19 The officials told Baruch, “You and Jeremiah are going to have to hide. Don't tell anyone where you are.”
牧伯等バルクにいひけるは汝ゆきてヱレミヤとともに身を匿し在所を人に知しむべからずと
20 Then the officials went to see the king in the courtyard. They had kept the scroll safe in Elishama the secretary's room while they gave a full report to the king.
すなはち卷物を書記エリシヤマの房に置きて庭にいり王に詣りてこの諸の言を王につげければ
21 The king sent Jehudi to fetch the scroll. He went and got it from Elishama the secretary's room. Then Jehudi read it to the king and all the officials who were there standing next to him.
王その卷物を持來らせんとてヱホデを遣せりヱホデすなはち書記エリシヤマの房より卷物を取來りて之を王と王の側に立るすべての牧伯等に讀みきかせたり
22 It was the ninth month and the king was sitting in front of a fire in his winter quarters.
時は九月にして王冬の室に坐せり其前に火の燃る爐あり
23 Whenever Jehudi finished reading three or four columns, Jehoiakim would chop them off with a scribe's knife and toss them into the fire. Eventually the whole scroll was completely burned up.
ヱホデ三枚か四枚を讀けるとき王小刀をもてその卷物を切割き爐の火に投いれて之を盡く爐の火に焚り
24 Despite hearing all these messages, the king and his attendants weren't frightened and didn't tear their clothes in remorse.
王とその臣僕等はこの諸の言をきけども懼れず亦その衣を裂ざりき
25 Even when Elnathan, Delaiah, and Gemariah pleaded with the king not to burn the scroll, he refused to listen to them.
エルナタン、デラヤ、ゲマリヤ等王にその卷物を焚たまふ勿れと求めたれども聽ざりき
26 In fact the king ordered Jerahmeel, one of the princes, as well as Seraiah son of Azriel and Shelemiah son of Abdeel, to go and arrest Baruch and Jeremiah. But the Lord hid them.
王ハンメレクの子ヱラメルとアヅリエルの子セラヤとアブデルの子セレミヤに書記バルクと預言者ヱレミヤを執へよと命ぜしがヱホバかれらを匿したまへり
27 After the king burned the scroll Jeremiah had dictated to Baruch, a message from the Lord came to Jeremiah:
王卷物およびバルクがヱレミヤの口にしたがひて記せし言を焚しのちヱホバの言ヱレミヤに臨みていふ
28 Get another scroll and write everything out that was on the first scroll that Jehoiakim king of Judah burned.
汝また他の卷物をとりユダの王ヱホヤキムが焚しところの前の卷物の中の言をことごとく其に錄せ
29 Regarding Jehoiakim king of Judah announce that this is what the Lord says: You have burned the scroll and asked, “Why did you write that the king of Babylon is going to come and destroy this country and kill all its people and animals?”
汝またユダの王ヱホヤキムに告よヱホバかくいふ汝かの卷物を焚ていへり汝何なれば此卷物に錄してバビロンの王必ず來りてこの地を滅し此に人と畜を絕さんと云しやと
30 So this is what the Lord says about Jehoiakim king of Judah: He won't have anyone to succeed him as king, sitting on David's throne. His body will be thrown out to lie in the heat of the day and the cold of the night.
この故にヱホバ、ユダの王ヱホヤキムにつきてかくいひ給ふ彼にはダビデの位に坐する者無にいたらん且かれの屍は棄られて晝は熱氣にあひ夜は寒氣にあはん
31 I'm going to punish him and his descendants and officials for their sins. I will bring down on them and on the people living in Jerusalem and Judah, all the disasters I warned them about but they refused to listen.
我また彼とその子孫とその臣僕等をその惡のために罰せんまた彼らとヱルサレムの民とユダの人々には我わが彼らにつきて語りしかども彼らが聽ことをせざりし所の禍を降すべし
32 Jeremiah got another scroll and gave it to Baruch. Jeremiah dictated everything that was in the scroll that Jehoiakim had burned in the fire and Barcuh wrote it down. Even more messages of a similar kind were added.
是に於てヱレミヤ他の卷物を取てネリヤの子書記バルクにあたふバルクすなはちユダの王ヱホヤキムが火に焚たるところの書の諸の言をヱレミヤの口にしたがひて之に錄し外にまた斯る言を多く之に加へたり
