< Jeremiah 19 >

1 Thus says the LORD, Go and get a potter’s earthen bottle, and take of the ancients of the people, and of the ancients of the priests;
ヱホバかくいひたまふ往て陶人の瓦罇をかひ民の長老と祭司の長老の中より數人をともなひて
2 And go forth to the valley of the son of Hinnom, which is by the entry of the east gate, and proclaim there the words that I shall tell you,
陶人の門の前にあるベンヒンノムの谷にゆき彼處に於てわが汝に告んところの言を宣よ
3 And say, Hear you the word of the LORD, O kings of Judah, and inhabitants of Jerusalem; Thus says the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel; Behold, I will bring evil on this place, the which whoever hears, his ears shall tingle.
云くユダの王等とヱルサレムに住る者よヱホバの言をきけ萬軍のヱホバ、イスラエルの神かくいひたまふ視よ我災を此處にくだすべし凡そ之をきく者の耳はかならず鳴らん
4 Because they have forsaken me, and have estranged this place, and have burned incense in it to other gods, whom neither they nor their fathers have known, nor the kings of Judah, and have filled this place with the blood of innocents;
こは彼ら我を棄てこの處を瀆し此にて自己とその先祖およびユダの王等の知ざる他の神に香を焚き且辜なきものの血をこの處に盈せばなり
5 They have built also the high places of Baal, to burn their sons with fire for burnt offerings to Baal, which I commanded not, nor spoke it, neither came it into my mind:
又彼らはバアルの爲に崇邱を築き火をもて己の兒子を焚き燔祭となしてバアルにささげたり此わが命ぜしことにあらず我いひしことにあらず又我心に意はざりし事なり
6 Therefore, behold, the days come, says the LORD, that this place shall no more be called Tophet, nor The valley of the son of Hinnom, but The valley of slaughter.
ヱホバいひたまふさればみよ此處をトペテまたはベンヒンノムの谷と稱ずして屠戮の谷と稱ふる日きたらん
7 And I will make void the counsel of Judah and Jerusalem in this place; and I will cause them to fall by the sword before their enemies, and by the hands of them that seek their lives: and their carcasses will I give to be meat for the fowls of the heaven, and for the beasts of the earth.
また我この處に於てユダとヱルサレムの謀をむなしうし劍をもて彼らを其敵の前とその生命を索る者の手に仆しまたその屍を天空の鳥と地の獸の食物となし
8 And I will make this city desolate, and an hissing; every one that passes thereby shall be astonished and hiss because of all the plagues thereof.
かつ此邑を荒して人の胡盧とならしめん凡そここを過る者はその諸の災に驚きて笑ふべし
9 And I will cause them to eat the flesh of their sons and the flesh of their daughters, and they shall eat every one the flesh of his friend in the siege and narrow place, with which their enemies, and they that seek their lives, shall straiten them.
また彼らがその敵とその生命を索る者とに圍みくるしめらるる時我彼らをして己の子の肉女の肉を食はせん又彼らは互にその友の肉を食ふべし
10 Then shall you break the bottle in the sight of the men that go with you,
汝ともに行く人の目の前にてその瓦罇を毀ちて彼らにいふべし
11 And shall say to them, Thus says the LORD of hosts; Even so will I break this people and this city, as one breaks a potter’s vessel, that cannot be made whole again: and they shall bury them in Tophet, till there be no place to bury.
萬軍のヱホバかくいひ給ふ一回毀てば復全うすること能はざる陶人の器を毀つが如くわれ此民とこの邑を毀たんまた彼らは葬るべき地なきによりてトペテに葬られん
12 Thus will I do to this place, says the LORD, and to the inhabitants thereof, and even make this city as Tophet:
ヱホバいひ給ふ我この處とこの中に住る者とに斯なし此邑をトペテの如くなすべし
13 And the houses of Jerusalem, and the houses of the kings of Judah, shall be defiled as the place of Tophet, because of all the houses on whose roofs they have burned incense to all the host of heaven, and have poured out drink offerings to other gods.
且ヱルサレムの室とユダの王等の室はトペテの處のごとく汚れん其は彼らすべての室の屋蓋のうへにて天の衆群に香をたき他の神に酒をそそげばなり
14 Then came Jeremiah from Tophet, where the LORD had sent him to prophesy; and he stood in the court of the LORD’s house; and said to all the people,
ヱレミヤ、ヱホバの己を遣はして預言せしめたまひしトペテより歸りきたりヱホバの室の庭に立ちすべての民に語りていひけるは
15 Thus says the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel; Behold, I will bring on this city and on all her towns all the evil that I have pronounced against it, because they have hardened their necks, that they might not hear my words.
萬軍のヱホバ、イスラエルの神かくいひたまふ視よわれ我いひし諸の災をこの邑とその諸の郷村にくださん彼らその項を強くして我言を聽ざればなり
