Jeremiah 6
1 O you children of Benjamin, gather yourselves to flee out of the middle of Jerusalem, and blow the trumpet in Tekoa, and set up a sign of fire in Bethhaccerem: for evil appears out of the north, and great destruction.
ベニヤミンの子等よヱルサレムの中より逃れテコアに箛をふきベテハケレムに合圖の火をあげよそは北より災と大なる敗壞のぞめばなり
2 I have likened the daughter of Zion to a comely and delicate woman.
われ美しき窈窕なるシオンの女を滅さん
3 The shepherds with their flocks shall come to her; they shall pitch their tents against her round about; they shall feed every one in his place.
牧者は其群を牽て此處にきたりその周圍に天幕をはらん群はおのおのその處にて草を食はん
4 Prepare you war against her; arise, and let us go up at noon. Woe to us! for the day goes away, for the shadows of the evening are stretched out.
汝ら戰端を開きて之を攻べし起よわれら日午にのぼらん嗚呼惜かな日ははや昃き夕日の影長くなれり
5 Arise, and let us go by night, and let us destroy her palaces.
起よわれら夜の間にのぼりてその諸の殿舍を毀たん
6 For thus has the LORD of hosts said, Hew you down trees, and cast a mount against Jerusalem: this is the city to be visited; she is wholly oppression in the middle of her.
萬軍のヱホバかくいひたまへり汝ら樹をきりヱルサレムに向ひて壘を築けこれは罰すべき邑なりその中には唯暴逆のみあり
7 As a fountain casts out her waters, so she casts out her wickedness: violence and spoil is heard in her; before me continually is grief and wounds.
源の水をいだすがごとく彼その惡を流すその中に暴逆と威虐きこゆ我前に憂と傷たえず
8 Be you instructed, O Jerusalem, lest my soul depart from you; lest I make you desolate, a land not inhabited.
ヱルサレムよ汝訓戒をうけよ然らざれば我心汝をはなれ汝を荒蕪となし住む人なき地となさん
9 Thus says the LORD of hosts, They shall thoroughly glean the remnant of Israel as a vine: turn back your hand as a grape gatherer into the baskets.
萬軍のヱホバかくいひたまふ彼らは葡萄の遺餘を摘みとるごとくイスラエルの遺れる者を摘とらん汝葡萄を摘取者のごとく屢手を筐に入るべし
10 To whom shall I speak, and give warning, that they may hear? behold, their ear is uncircumcised, and they cannot listen: behold, the word of the LORD is to them a reproach; they have no delight in it.
我たれに語り誰を警めてきかしめんや視よその耳は割禮をうけざるによりて聽えず彼らはヱホバの言を嘲りこれを悦ばず
11 Therefore I am full of the fury of the LORD; I am weary with holding in: I will pour it out on the children abroad, and on the assembly of young men together: for even the husband with the wife shall be taken, the aged with him that is full of days.
ヱホバの怒わが身に充つわれ忍ぶに倦むこれを衢街にある童子と集れる年少者とに泄すべし夫も婦も老たる者も年邁し者も執へらるるにいたらん
12 And their houses shall be turned to others, with their fields and wives together: for I will stretch out my hand on the inhabitants of the land, says the LORD.
その家と田地と妻はともに佗人にわたらん其はわれ手を擧てこの地に住る者を撃ばなりとヱホバいひたまふ
13 For from the least of them even to the greatest of them every one is given to covetousness; and from the prophet even to the priest every one deals falsely.
夫彼らは少さき者より大なる者にいたるまで皆貪婪者なり又預言者より祭司にいたるまで皆詭詐をなす者なればなり
14 They have healed also the hurt of the daughter of my people slightly, saying, Peace, peace; when there is no peace.
かれら淺く我民の女の傷を醫し平康からざる時に平康平康といへり
15 Were they ashamed when they had committed abomination? no, they were not at all ashamed, neither could they blush: therefore they shall fall among them that fall: at the time that I visit them they shall be cast down, says the LORD.
彼らは憎むべき事を爲て恥辱をうくれども毫も恥ずまた愧を知らずこの故に彼らは傾仆るる者と偕にたふれん我來るとき彼ら躓かんとヱホバいひたまふ
16 Thus says the LORD, Stand you in the ways, and see, and ask for the old paths, where is the good way, and walk therein, and you shall find rest for your souls. But they said, We will not walk therein.
ヱホバかくいひたまふ汝ら途に立て見古き徑に就て何か善道なるを尋ねて其途に行めさらば汝らの靈魂安を得ん然ど彼らこたへて我儕はそれに行まじといふ
17 Also I set watchmen over you, saying, Listen to the sound of the trumpet. But they said, We will not listen.
我また汝らの上に守望者をたて箛の聲をきけといへり然ど彼等こたへて我儕は聞じといふ
18 Therefore hear, you nations, and know, O congregation, what is among them.
故に萬國の民よきけ會衆よかれらの遇ところを知れ
19 Hear, O earth: behold, I will bring evil on this people, even the fruit of their thoughts, because they have not listened to my words, nor to my law, but rejected it.
地よきけわれ災をこの民にくださんこは彼らの思の結ぶ果なりかれら我言とわが律法をきかずして之を棄るによる
20 To what purpose comes there to me incense from Sheba, and the sweet cane from a far country? your burnt offerings are not acceptable, nor your sacrifices sweet to me.
シバより我許に乳香きたり遠き國より菖蒲きたるは何のためぞやわれは汝らの燔祭をよろこばず汝らの犠牲を甘しとせず
21 Therefore thus says the LORD, Behold, I will lay stumbling blocks before this people, and the fathers and the sons together shall fall on them; the neighbor and his friend shall perish.
故にヱホバかくいひたまふみよ我この民の前に躓礙をおく父と子とそれに蹶き隣人とその友偕に滅ぶべし
22 Thus says the LORD, Behold, a people comes from the north country, and a great nation shall be raised from the sides of the earth.
ヱホバかくいひたまふみよ民北の國よりきたる大なる民地の極より起る
23 They shall lay hold on bow and spear; they are cruel, and have no mercy; their voice roars like the sea; and they ride on horses, set in array as men for war against you, O daughter of Zion.
彼らは弓と槍をとる殘忍にして憫なしその聲は海の如く鳴るシオンの女よかれらは馬に乗り軍人のごとく身をよろひて汝を攻めん
24 We have heard the fame thereof: our hands wax feeble: anguish has taken hold of us, and pain, as of a woman in travail.
我儕その風聲をききたれば我儕の手弱り子をうむ婦のごとき苦痛と劬勞われらに迫る
25 Go not forth into the field, nor walk by the way; for the sword of the enemy and fear is on every side.
汝ら田地に出る勿れまた路に行むなかれ敵の劍と畏怖四方にあればなり
26 O daughter of my people, gird you with sackcloth, and wallow yourself in ashes: make you mourning, as for an only son, most bitter lamentation: for the spoiler shall suddenly come on us.
我民の女よ麻衣を身にまとひ灰のうちにまろび獨子を喪ひしごとくに哀みていたく哭けそは毀滅者突然に我らに來るべければなり
27 I have set you for a tower and a fortress among my people, that you may know and try their way.
われ汝を民のうちに立て金を驗る者のごとくなし又城のごとくなすこは汝をしてその途を知しめまた試みしめんためなり
28 They are all grievous rebels, walking with slanders: they are brass and iron; they are all corrupters.
彼らは皆いたく悖れる者なり歩行て人を謗る者なり彼らは銅のごとく鐵のごとし皆邪なる者なり
29 The bellows are burned, the lead is consumed of the fire; the founder melts in vain: for the wicked are not plucked away.
韛は火に焚け鉛はつき鎔匠はいたづらに鎔す惡者いまだ除かれざればなり
30 Reprobate silver shall men call them, because the LORD has rejected them.
ヱホバ彼らを棄たまふによりて彼等は棄られたる銀と呼ばれん
