< Obadiah 1 >

1 Obadiah's vision. This is what the Lord says about the land of Edom. We have heard from the Lord that a messenger was sent to tell the nations: Get ready! Let's go to war against Edom!
オバデヤの預言 主ヱホバ、エドムにつきて斯いひたまふ 我らヱホバより出たる音信を聞り 一人の使者國々の民の中に遣されて云ふ 起よ我等起てエドムを攻撃んと
2 I will make you insignificant among the nations. You will be totally despised.
我汝をして國々の中において小き者たらしむ 汝は大に藐視らるるなり
3 Your heart's pride has deceived you—you who live in a secure fortress of rock in the high mountains, saying to yourselves, “Who can ever bring us down?”
山崖の巖屋に居り高き處に住む者よ 汝が心の傲慢なんぢを欺けり 汝心の中に謂ふ誰か我を地に曵くだすことを得んと
4 But even though you soar like an eagle, even though you make your nest among the stars, I will bring you down from there, declares the Lord.
汝たとひ鷲のごとくに高く擧り星の間に巣を造るとも我そこより汝を曵くださん ヱホバこれを言たまふ
5 You will be completely destroyed! If thieves came to you, if robbers came at night, wouldn't they steal only what they wanted? If those who harvest grapes came to you, wouldn't they leave some behind?
盜賊汝に來り 強盜夜なんぢに來り 竊ともその心に滿るときは止ざらんや 嗚呼なんぢは滅されて絶ゆ 葡萄を摘む者汝にいたるも尚 幾何を遺さざらんや
6 But how Esau will be plundered and their hidden treasures looted!
嗚呼エサウは搜されその隱しおける物は探りいださる
7 All your allies will drive you out, past the borders of your land. Those who were at peace with you will deceive you, and conquer you. Those who ate with you have ambushed you. You don't understand a thing!
汝と盟約を結べる人々はみな汝を國境に逐やり汝と和好をなせる人々はみな汝を欺きて汝に勝ち汝の食物を食ふ者 等は汝の下に羂を設く 彼の中には穎悟あらず
8 On that day, declares the Lord, I will destroy the wise men of Edom—there will be no more wisdom in the mountains of Esau.
ヱホバ言たまふ當日には我智慧ある者をヱドムより絶除き穎悟をエサウの山より絶除かざらんや
9 Teman, your fighting men will be terrified, so that everyone of the mountains of Esau will be cut down in the massacre.
テマンよ汝の勇士は驚き懼れん 而して人みな終に殺されてエサウの山より絶除かるべし
10 Because of the violence you committed against your brothers, the descendants of Jacob, you will be totally ashamed of yourselves, and destroyed forever.
汝はその兄弟ヤコブに暴虐を加へたるに因て恥辱なんぢを蒙はん 汝は永遠に至るまで絶るべし
11 On that day you stood aside, on that day strangers plundered their wealth and foreigners entered their gates, and divided up Jerusalem by casting lots—and you were like one of them.
汝が遠く離れて立をりし日即ち異邦人これが財寳を奪ひ他國人これが門に進み入りエルサレムのために籤を掣たる日には汝も彼らの一人のごとくなりき
12 You should not have gloated over your brother's day of disaster. You should not have rejoiced over the day of destruction of the sons of Judah. You should not have boasted over the day of their distress.
汝は汝の兄弟の日すなはちその災禍の日を觀るべからず 又ユダの子孫の滅亡の日を喜ぶべからず その苦難の日には汝口を大きく開べからざるなり
13 You should not have marched through the city gates of my people on their day of disaster. You should not have gloated over them on the day of their disaster. You should not have looted their wealth on the day of their disaster.
我民の滅ぶる日には汝その門に入べからず其滅ぶる日には汝その患難を見べからず 又その滅ぶる日には汝その財寳に手をかく可らず
14 You should not have stood at the crossroads, cutting down those trying to escape. You should not have handed over those who survived on the day of their distress.
汝路の辻々に立て その逃亡者を斬べからず 其 患難の日にこれが遺る者を付すべからず
15 For the day of the Lord is near for all nations. What you have done will be done to you; your actions will fall back on your own heads.
ヱホバの日萬國に臨むこと邇し 汝の爲せるごとく汝も爲られ汝の應報なんぢの首に歸すべし
16 For as you drank on my holy mountain, so will all the nations continually drink, and swallow, and they shall be as if they never existed.
汝等のわが聖山にて飮しごとく萬國の民も恒に飮ん 即ちみな飮かつ啜りて從前より有ざりし者のごとく成ん
17 But on Mount Zion there will be a place of escape, a holy place, and the descendants of Jacob will reclaim their inheritance.
シオン山には救はるる者等をりてその山聖所とならん またヤコブの家はその産業を獲ん
18 The descendants of Jacob will become a fire, and the descendants of Joseph a flame, and they shall burn up the descendants of Esau like stubble, consuming them completely, so that there will be not a single survivor of the descendants of Esau. For the Lord has spoken.
ヤコブの家は火となりヨセフの家は火燄となりエサウの家は藁とならん 即ち彼等これが上に燃てこれを焚ん エサウの家には遺る者一人も無にいたるべし ヱホバこれを言なり
19 Those living in the Negev will occupy the mountains of Esau; those from the foothills of Judah will occupy the land of the Philistines, and possess the fields of Ephraim and Samaria; those from the tribe of Benjamin will occupy Gilead.
南の人はエサウの山を獲 平地の人はペリシテを獲ん 又彼らはエフライムの地及びサマリヤの地を獲 べニヤミンはギレアデを獲ん
20 The army of exiles of the people of Israel shall possess the land of the Canaanites as far as Zarephath, and the exiles of Jerusalem from Sepharad shall possess the cities of the Negev.
かの擄はれゆきしイスラエルの軍旅はカナン人に屬する地をザレパテまで取らん セパラデにあるエルサレムの俘擄人は南の邑々を獲ん
21 Those who have been saved will go up Mount Zion and rule the mountains of Esau. And the kingdom shall be the Lord's.
然る時に救者シオンの山に上りてエサウの山を鞫かん而して國はヱホバに歸すべし
