< Obadiah 1 >
1 The vision of Obadiah. Thus saith the Lord God against Edom, We haue heard a rumour from the Lord, and an ambassadour is sent among the heathen: arise, and let vs rise vp against her to battel.
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けり 一人の使者國々の民の中に遣されて云ふ 起よ我儕起てエドムを攻撃んと
2 Beholde, I haue made thee small among the heathen: thou art vtterly 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 The pride of thine heart hath deceiued thee: thou that dwellest in the cleftes of the rockes, whose habitation is hie, that saith in his heart, Who shall bring me downe to the ground?
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 Though thou exalt thy selfe as the eagle, and make thy nest among the starres, thence will I bring thee downe, sayth 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 Came theeues to thee or robbers by night? howe wast thou brought to silence? woulde they not haue stolen, til they had ynough? if the grape gatherers came to thee, woulde they not leaue some grapes?
盜賊汝に來り 強盜夜なんぢに來り竊む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 Howe are the things of Esau sought vp, and his treasures searched?
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 the men of thy confederacie haue driuen thee to ye borders: the men that were at peace with thee, haue deceiued thee, and preuailed against thee: they that eate thy bread, haue laid a wound vnder thee: there is none vnderstanding in him.
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 Shall not I in that day, saith the Lord, euen destroy the wise men out of Edom, and vnderstanding from the mount 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 And thy strong men, O Teman, shall bee afraide, because euery one of the mount of Esau shalbe cut off by slaughter.
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 For thy crueltie against thy brother Iaakob, shame shall couer thee, and thou shalt be cut off for euer.
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 When thou stoodest on the other side, in the day that the strangers caried away his substance, and straungers entred into his gates, and cast lots vpon Ierusalem, euen thou wast as 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 But thou shouldest not haue beholden the day of thy brother, in the day that hee was made a stranger, neither shouldest thou haue reioyced ouer the children of Iudah, in the day of their destruction: thou shouldest not haue spoken proudly in the day of affliction.
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 Thou shouldest not haue entred into the gate of my people, in the day of their destruction, neither shouldest thou haue once looked on their affliction in the day of their destruction, nor haue layde hands on their substance in the day of their destruction.
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 Neyther shouldest thou haue stande in the crosse wayes to cut off them, that shoulde escape, neither shouldest thou haue shut vp the remnant thereof in the day of affliction.
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 neere, vpon all the heathen: as thou hast done, it shall bee done to thee: thy reward shall returne vpon thine head.
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 yee haue drunke vpon mine holy Mountaine, so shall all the heathen drinke continually: yea, they shall drinke and swallow vp, and they shalbe as though they had not bene.
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 vpon mount Zion shalbe deliuerance, and it shalbe holy, and the house of Iaakob shall possesse their possessions,
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產業を獲ん
18 And the house of Iaakob shalbe a fire, and the house of Ioseph a flame, and the house of Esau as stubble, and they shall kindle in them and deuoure them: and there shall bee no remnant of the house of Esau for the Lord hath spoken it.
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 And they shall possesse the South side of the mount of Esau, and the plaine of the Philistims: and they shall possesse the fieldes of Ephraim, and the fieldes of Samaria, and Beniamin shall haue 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およびサマリヤの地を獲 べニヤミンはギレアデを獲ん
20 And the captiuitie of this host of the children of Israel, which were among the Canaanites, shall possesse vnto Zarephath, and the captiuitie of Ierusalem, which is in Sepharad, shall possesse the cities of the South.
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 And they that shall saue, shall come vp to mount Zion to iudge the mount of Esau, and the kingdome shalbe the Lords.
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
