Micah 5
1 Now shalt thou gather thyself in troops, O daughter of troops; they have laid siege against us; they smite the judge of Israel with a rod upon the cheek.
軍隊の女よ今なんぢ集りて隊をつくれ 敵われらを攻囲み杖をもてイスラエルの士師の頬を撃つ
2 But thou, Beth-lehem Ephrathah, which art little to be among the thousands of Judah, out of thee shall one come forth unto Me that is to be ruler in Israel; whose goings forth are from of old, from ancient days.
ベテレヘム、エフラタ汝はユダの郡中にて小き者なり 然れどもイスラエルの君となる者汝の中より我ために出べし その出る事は古昔より永遠の日よりなり
3 Therefore will He give them up, until the time that she who travaileth hath brought forth; then the residue of his brethren shall return with the children of Israel.
是故に産婦の産おとすまで彼等を付しおきたまはん 然る後その遺れる兄弟イスラエルの子孫とともに歸るべし
4 And he shall stand, and shall feed his flock in the strength of the LORD, in the majesty of the name of the LORD his God; and they shall abide, for then shall he be great unto the ends of the earth.
彼はヱホバの力に由りその神ヱホバの名の威光によりて立てその群を牧ひ之をして安然に居しめん 今彼は大なる者となりて地の極にまでおよばん
5 And this shall be peace: when the Assyrian shall come into our land, and when he shall tread in our palaces, then shall we raise against him seven shepherds, and eight princes among men.
彼は平和なり アッスリヤ人われらの國に入り我らの宮殿を踏あらさんとする時は我儕七人の牧者八人の人君を立てこれに當らん
6 And they shall waste the land of Assyria with the sword, and the land of Nimrod with the keen-edged sword; and he shall deliver us from the Assyrian, when he cometh into our land, and when he treadeth within our border.
彼ら劍をもてアッスリヤの地をほろぼしニムロデの地の邑々をほろぼさん アッスリヤの人我らの地に攻いり我らの境を踏あらす時には彼その手より我らを救はん
7 And the remnant of Jacob shall be in the midst of many peoples, as dew from the LORD, as showers upon the grass, that are not looked for from man, nor awaited at the hands of the sons of men.
ヤコブの遺餘者は衆多の民の中に在こと人に頼ら世の人を俟ずしてヱホバより降る露の如く青草の上にふりしく雨の如くならん
8 And the remnant of Jacob shall be among the nations, in the midst of many peoples, as a lion among the beasts of the forest, as a young lion among the flocks of sheep, who, if he go through, treadeth down and teareth in pieces, and there is none to deliver.
ヤコブの遺餘者の國々にをり衆多の民の中にをる樣は林の獸の中に獅子の居るごとく羊の群の中に猛き獅子の居るごとくならん その過るときは踏みかつ裂ことをなす救ふ者なし
9 Let Thy hand be lifted up above Thine adversaries, and let all Thine enemies be cut off.
望らくは汝の手汝が諸の敵の上にあげられ汝がもろもろの仇ことごとく絶れんことを
10 And it shall come to pass in that day, saith the LORD, that I will cut off thy horses out of the midst of thee, and will destroy thy chariots;
ヱホバ言たまふ其日には我なんぢの馬を汝の中より絶ち汝の車を毀ち
11 And I will cut off the cities of thy land, and will throw down all thy strongholds;
汝の國の邑々を絶し汝の一切の城をことごとく圮さん
12 And I will cut off witchcrafts out of thy hand; and thou shalt have no more soothsayers;
我また汝の手より魔術を絶ん 汝の中に卜筮師無にいたるべし
13 And I will cut off thy graven images and thy pillars out of the midst of thee; and thou shalt no more worship the work of thy hands.
我なんぢの彫像および柱像を汝の中より絶ん 汝の手にて作れる者を汝重て拜むこと無るべし
14 And I will pluck up thy Asherim out of the midst of thee; and I will destroy thine enemies.
我また汝のアシラ像を汝の中より抜たふし汝の邑々を滅さん
15 And I will execute vengeance in anger and fury upon the nations, because they hearkened not.
而して我忿怒と憤恨をもてその聽從はざる國民に仇を報いん
