< Hosea 13 >
1 When Ephraim spake, there was trembling: hee exalted him selfe in Israel, but he hath sinned in Baal, and is dead.
エフライム言を出せば人をののけり彼はイスラエルのなかに己をたかうしバアルにより罪を犯して死たりしが
2 And nowe they sinne more and more, and haue made them molten images of their siluer, and idoles according to their owne vnderstanding: they were all the woorke of the craftesmen: they say one to another whiles they sacrifice a man, Let them kisse the calues.
今も尚ますます罪を犯しその銀をもて己のために像を鋳その機巧にしたがひて偶像を作る是みな工人の作なるなり彼らは之につきていふ犠牲を献ぐる者はこの犢に吻を接べしと
3 Therefore they shall bee as the morning cloude, and as the morning dewe that passeth away, as the chaffe that is driuen with a whirlewind out of the floore, and as the smoke that goeth out of the chimney.
是によりて彼らは朝の雲のごとく速にきえうする露のごとく打場より大風に吹散さるる穀殻のごとく窓より出ゆく煙のごとくならん
4 Yet I am the Lord thy God from the land of Egypt, and thou shalt knowe no God but me: for there is no Sauiour beside me.
されど我はエジプトの國をいでてより以來なんぢの神ヱホバなり爾われの外に神を知ことなし我のほかに救者なし
5 I did knowe thee in the wildernesse, in the land of drought.
我さきに荒野にて水なき地にて爾を顧みたり
6 As in their pastures, so were they filled: they were filled, and their heart was exalted: therefore haue they forgotten me.
かれらは秣場によりて食に飽き飽くによりてその心たかぶり是によりて我を忘れたり
7 And I wil be vnto them as a very lyon, and as a leopard in the way of Asshur.
斯るがゆゑに我かれらに對ひて獅子の如くなり途の傍にひそみうかがふ豹のごとくならん
8 I will meete them, as a beare that is robbed of her whelpes, and I will breake the kall of their heart, and there will I deuoure them like a lion: the wilde beast shall teare them.
われ子をうしなへる熊のごとく彼らに向ひてその心膜を裂き獅子の如くこれを食はん野の獣これを攫斷るべし
9 O Israel, one hath destroyed thee, but in me is thine helpe.
イスラエルよ汝の滅ぶるは我に背き汝を助くる者に背くが故なり
10 I am: where is thy King, that shoulde help thee in al thy cities? and thy iudges, of whom thou saidest, Giue me a King, and princes?
汝のもろもろの邑に汝を助くべき汝の王は今いづくにかあるなんぢらがその王と牧伯等とを我に與へよと言たりし士師等は今いづくにかある
11 I gaue thee a King in mine anger, and I tooke him away in my wrath.
われ忿怒をもて汝に王を與へ憤恨をもて之をうばひたり
12 The iniquitie of Ephraim is bound vp: his sinne is hid.
エフライムの不義は包まれてありその罪はをさめたくはへられたり
13 The sorowes of a trauailing woman shall come vpon him: he is an vnwise sonne, els would he not stande still at the time, euen at the breaking forth of the children.
劬勞にかかれる婦のかなしみ之に臨まん彼は愚なる子なり時に臨みてもなほ產門に入らず
14 I wil redeeme them from the power of the graue: I will deliuer them from death: O death, I wil be thy death: O graue, I will be thy destruction: repentance is hid from mine eyes. (Sheol )
我かれらを陰府の手より贖はん我かれらを死より贖はん死よなんぢの疫は何處にあるか陰府よなんぢの災は何處にあるか悔改はかくれて我が目にみえず (Sheol )
15 Though he grewe vp among his brethren, an East winde shall come, euen the winde of the Lord shall come vp from the wildernesse, and drie vp his veine, and his fountaine shalbe dryed vp: he shall spoyle the treasure of all pleasant vessels.
彼は兄弟のなかにて果を結ぶこと多けれども東風吹きたりヱホバの息荒野より吹おこらん之がためにその泉は乾その源は涸れんその積蓄へたるもろもろの賓貴器皿は掠め奪はるべし
16 Samaria shalbe desolate: for she hath rebelled against her God: they shall fall by the sworde: their infants shalbe dashed in pieces, and their women with childe shalbe ript.
サマリヤはその神にそむきたれば刑せられ劍に斃れんその嬰兒はなげくだかれその孕たる婦は剖れん
