Joel 3
1 At that time when this happens, when I bring back the exiles to Judah and Jerusalem,
觀よ我ユダとヱルサレムの俘囚人を歸さん その日その時
2 I will gather together all the nations in the valley of Jehoshaphat and I will judge them there over my people Israel, my inheritance, whom they have scattered among the nations, and have divided up my land.
萬國の民を集め之を携へてヨシヤパテの谷にくだりかしこにて我民我ゆづりの産なるイスラエルのために彼らをさばかん 彼らこれを國々に散してその地を分ち取りたればなり
3 They cast lots for my people; they traded boys in payment for prostitutes and girls to buy wine to drink.
彼らは籤をひきて我民を取り童子を娼妓に換へ童女を賣り酒に換て飮めり
4 Also, what have you got to do with me, Tyre and Sidon, and all the regions of Philistia? Are you trying to get back at me? If you are trying to pay me back, I will quickly pay you back what you deserve for what you've done.
ツロ、シドンよベリシテのすべての國よ 汝ら我と何のかかはりあらんや 汝ら我がなししことに返をなさんとするや 若し我に返報をなさんとならば我忽ち迅速に汝らがなししことをもてその首に歸らしめん
5 You stole my silver and my gold and my best treasures, and you put them in your temples.
是は汝らは我の金銀を取り我のしたふべき寶を汝らの宮にたづさへゆき
6 You sold the people of Judah and Jerusalem to the Greeks so they could be sent far away from their land.
またユダの人とヱルサレムの人をギリシヤ人に賣りてその本國より遠く離らせたればなり
7 But watch out! I will get them moving from the places you sold them to, and bring them back, and I will pay you back what you deserve for what you've done.
視よ我かられを起して汝らが賣たる處より出し汝らがなししことをもてその首にかへらしめん
8 I will sell your sons and daughters to the people of Judah, and they will sell them to the Sabeans, a distant nation. I the Lord have spoken.
我はなんぢらの男子女子をユダの人の手に賣り彼らは之を遠き民なるシバ人に賣らん ヱホバこれを言ふ
9 Proclaim this among the nations: “Prepare for war! Call up the mighty warriors! Let all the soldiers get ready and advance!
もろもろの國に宣つたへよ 戰爭の準備を爲し勇士をはげまし軍人をことごとくちかより來らしめよ
10 Hammer your plough blades and turn them into swords. Turn your pruning hooks into spears. Even the weak should say ‘I am a strong fighter!’
汝等の鋤を劍に打かへ汝らの鎌を鎗に打かへよ 弱き者も我は強しと言へ
11 Hurry up and come, all nations from everywhere, and gather there. Bring down your warriors, Lord!
四周の國々の民よ汝ら急ぎ上りて集れ ヱホバよ汝の勇士をかしこに降したまへ
12 Let the nations get ready, let them come to the valley of Jehoshaphat for there I will sit in judgment on all the nations.
國々の民よ起て上りヨシヤパテの谷に至れ 彼處に我座をしめて四周の國々の民をことごとく鞫かん
13 Start swinging the sickle, for the harvest is ripe. Come and tread the grapes for the winepress is full and the vats are overflowing because their wickedness has become so great.
鎌をいれよ 穀物は熟せり 來り踏めよ酒榨は盈ち甕は溢る 彼らの惡 大なればなりと
14 Huge mobs are in the valley of the Lord's verdict. For the day of the Lord is near in the valley of his verdict.
かまびすしきかな無數の民 審判の谷にありてかまびすし ヱホバの日 審判の谷に近づくが故なり
15 The sun and moon will become dark, and the stars will stop shining.
日も月も暗くなり星その光明を失ふ
16 The Lord will roar from Zion, shouting in a loud voice from Jerusalem, shaking the heavens and the earth. But the Lord will shelter his people, protecting the people of Israel.
ヱホバ、シオンよりよびとどろかしヱルサレムより聲をはなち天地を震ひうごかしたまふ 然れどヱホバはその民の避所イスラエルの子孫の城となりたまはん
17 Then you will know that I, the Lord your God, dwell in Zion, my holy mountain, and Jerusalem will be a holy place forever, and no foreigners will ever march through her again.
かくて汝ら我はヱホバ汝等の神にして我聖山シオンに住むことをしるべし ヱルサレムは聖き所となり他國の人は重ねてその中をかよふまじ
18 At that time new wine will pour down the mountains, and the hills will flow with milk, and all the riverbeds of Judah will run with water. A spring will flow out of the Temple and will water the valley of Shittim.
その日山にあたらしき酒滴り岡に乳流れユダのもろもろの河に水流れヱホバの家より泉水流れいでてシッテムの谷に灌がん
19 But Egypt will become desolate, and Edom a desert wasteland, because of the violence they did against Judah, for in their land they shed innocent blood.
エジプトは荒すたれエドムは荒野とならん 是はかれらユダの子孫を虐げ辜なき者の血をその國に流したればなり
20 Judah will be lived in forever, and Jerusalem for all generations.
されどユダは永久にすまひヱルサレムは世々に保たん
21 Will I pardon and leave unpunished the shedding of innocent blood? The Lord lives in Zion!”
我さきにはかれらが流しし血の罪を報いざりしが今はこれをむくいん ヱホバ、シオンに住みたまはん
