Malachi 2
1 And now, O ye Priests, this commandement is for you.
祭司等よ今この命令なんぢらにあたへらる
2 If yee will not heare it, nor consider it in your heart, to giue glory vnto my Name, sayth the Lord of hostes, I will euen sende a curse vpon you, and will curse your blessings: yea, I haue cursed them alreadie, because yee doe not consider it in your heart.
萬軍のヱホバいひたまふ汝等もし聽きしたがはず又これを心にとめず我名に榮光を歸せずばわれ汝らの上に詛を來らせん 又なんぢらの祝福を詛はん われすでに此等を詛へり 汝らこれを心にとめざりしに因てなり
3 Behold, I wil corrupt your seede, and cast dongue vpon your faces, euen the dongue of your solemne feastes, and you shall be like vnto it.
視よ我なんぢらのために種をいましめん また糞すなはち汝らの犠牲の糞を汝らの面の上に撒さん 汝らこれとともに携へさられん
4 And yee shall know, that I haue sent this commandement vnto you, that my couenant, which I made with Leui, might stand, sayeth the Lord of hostes.
わが此命令をなんぢらに下し與ふるは我契約をしてレビに保たしめんためなるを汝ら知るべし 萬軍のヱホバこれをいふ
5 My couenant was with him of life and peace, and I gaue him feare, and he feared mee, and was afraid before my Name.
わが彼と結びし契約は生命と平安とにあり 我がこれを彼に與へしは彼に我を畏れしめんが爲なり 彼われを懼れわが名の前にをののけり
6 The lawe of trueth was in his mouth, and there was no iniquitie founde in his lippes: hee walked with me in peace and equitie, and did turne many away from iniquitie.
眞理の法彼の口に在て不義その口唇にあらず 彼平安と公義をとりて我とともにあゆみ又多の人を不義より立歸らせたりき
7 For the Priestes lippes shoulde preserue knowledge, and they shoulde seeke the Lawe at his mouth: for he is the messenger of the Lord of hostes.
夫れ祭司の口唇に知識を持べく又人彼の口より法を諮詢べし そは祭司は萬軍のヱホバの使者なればなり
8 But yee are gone out of the way: yee haue caused many to fall by the Lawe: yee haue broken the couenant of Leui, sayeth the Lord of hostes.
しかるに汝らは道を離れ衆多の人を法に躓礙かせレビの契約を壞りたり 萬軍のヱホバこれをいふ
9 Therefore haue I also made you to be despised, and vile before all the people, because yee kept not my wayes, but haue beene partiall in the Lawe.
汝らは我道を守らず法をおこなふに當りて人に偏りし故にわれも汝らを一切の民の前に輕められまた賤められしむ
10 Haue we not all one father? hath not one God made vs? why doe we transgresse euery one against his brother, and breake the couenant of our fathers?
我儕の父は皆同一なるにあらずや われらを造りし神は同一なるにあらずや 我儕先祖等の契約を破りて各おのれの兄弟にいつはりを行ふは何ぞ
11 Iudah hath transgressed, and an abomination is committed in Israel and in Ierusalem: for Iudah hath defiled the holinesse of the Lord, which hee loued, and hath maried the daughter of a strange God.
ユダは誓約にそむけり イスラエル及びエルサレムの中には憎むべき事行はる すなはちユダはヱホバの愛したまふ聖所を褻して他神の女をめとれり
12 The Lord will cut off the man that doeth this: both the master and the seruaunt out of the Tabernacle of Iaacob, and him that offereth an offering vnto the Lord of hostes.
ヱホバこれをおこなふ人をば主なるものをも事ふる者をもヤコブの幕屋よりのぞきたまはん 萬軍のヱホバに獻物をささぐるものにてもまた然り
13 And this haue ye done againe, and couered the altar of the Lord with teares, with weeping and with mourning: because the offering is no more regarded, neither receiued acceptably at your handes.
つぎに又なんぢらはこれをなせり 即ち涙と泣と歎とをもてヱホバの壇をおほはしめたり 故に彼もはや獻物を顧みずまたこれを汝らの手より悦び納たまはざるなり
14 Yet yee say, Wherein? Because the Lord hath beene witnesse betweene thee and the wife of thy youth, against whome thou hast transgressed: yet is shee thy companion, and the wife of thy couenant.
汝らはなほ何故ぞやと言ふ そは是はヱホバ汝となんぢの若き時の妻の間にいりて證をなしたまへばなり 彼はなんぢの伴侶汝が契約をなせし妻なるに汝誓約に背きてこれを棄つ
15 And did not hee make one? yet had hee abundance of spirit: and wherefore one? because he sought a godly seede: therefore keepe your selues in your spirit, and let none trespasse against the wife of his youth.
ヱホバは只一を造りたまひしにあらずや されども彼にはなほ靈の餘ありき 何故にひとつのみなりしや 是は神を敬虔の裔を得んが爲なりき 故になんぢら心に謹みその若き時の妻を誓約にそむきて棄るなかれ
16 If thou hatest her, put her away, sayeth the Lord God of Israel, yet he couereth the iniurie vnder his garment, saieth the Lord of hosts: therefore keepe your selues in your spirite, and transgresse not.
イスラエルの神ヱホバいひたまふ われは離縁を惡みまた虐遇をもて其衣を蔽ふ人を惡む 故に汝ら誓約にそむきて妻を待遇はざるやう心につつしむべし 萬軍のヱホバこれをいふ
17 Yee haue wearied the Lord with your woordes: yet yee say, Wherein haue we wearied him? When ye say, Euery one that doeth euill, is good in the sight of the Lord, and he deliteth in them. Or where is the God of iudgement?
なんぢらは言をもてヱホバを煩勞はせり されど汝ら言ふ 何にわづらはせしやと 如何となればなんぢら凡て惡をなすものはヱホバの目に善と見えかつ彼に悦ばると言ひ また審判の神は安にあるやといへばなり
