< Isaiah 36 >
1 Now it came to pass in the fourteenth year of king Hezekiah, that Sennacherib king of Assyria came up against all the defenced cities of Judah, and took them.
ヒゼキヤ王の十四年にアツスリヤの王セナケリブ上りきたりてユダのもろもろの堅固なる邑をせめとれり
2 And the king of Assyria sent Rabshakeh from Lachish to Jerusalem unto king Hezekiah with a great army. And he stood by the conduit of the upper pool in the highway of the fuller's field.
アツスリヤ王ラキシよりラブシヤケをヱルサレムに遣はし大軍をひきゐてヒゼキヤ王のもとに往しむ ラブシヤケ漂工の野のおほぢの傍なる上の池の樋にそひてたてり
3 Then came forth unto him Eliakim, Hilkiah's son, which was over the house, and Shebna the scribe, and Joah, Asaph's son, the recorder.
この時ヒゼキヤの子なる家司エリアキム 書記セブナ、アサフの子なる史官ヨア出てこれを迎ふ
4 And Rabshakeh said unto them, Say ye now to Hezekiah, Thus saith the great king, the king of Assyria, What confidence is this wherein thou trustest?
ラブシヤケかれらにいひけるは なんぢら今ヒゼキヤにいへ大王アツスリヤの王かくいへり なんぢの恃とするその恃むところは何なるか
5 I say, sayest thou, (but they are but vain words) I have counsel and strength for war: now on whom dost thou trust, that thou rebellest against me?
我いふ なんぢが説ところの軍のはかりごととその能力とはただ口唇のことばのみ 今なんぢ誰によりたのみて我にさかふことをなすや
6 Lo, thou trustest in the staff of this broken reed, on Egypt; whereon if a man lean, it will go into his hand, and pierce it: so is Pharaoh king of Egypt to all that trust in him.
視よなんぢエジプトに依賴めり これ傷める葦の杖によりたのめるがごとし もし人これに倚もたれなばその手をつきさされん エジプト王パロがすべて己によりたのむものに對するは斯のごとし
7 But if thou say to me, We trust in YHWH our Elohim: is it not he, whose high places and whose altars Hezekiah hath taken away, and said to Judah and to Jerusalem, Ye shall worship before this altar?
汝われらはわれらの神ヱホバに依賴めりと我にいはんかそは曩にヒゼキヤが高きところと祭壇とをみな取去てユダとヱルサレムとにむかひ汝等ここなる一つの祭壇のまへにて拜すべしといへる夫ならずや
8 Now therefore give pledges, I pray thee, to my master the king of Assyria, and I will give thee two thousand horses, if thou be able on thy part to set riders upon them.
いま請わが君アツスリヤ王に賭をせよ われ汝に二千の馬を與ふべければ汝よりこれに乗ものをいだせ 果して出しうべしや
9 How then wilt thou turn away the face of one captain of the least of my master's servants, and put thy trust on Egypt for chariots and for horsemen?
然ばいかで我君のいとちひさき僕の長一人をだに退くることを得んや なんぞエジプトによりたのみて戰車と騎兵とをえんとするや
10 And am I now come up without YHWH against this land to destroy it? YHWH said unto me, Go up against this land, and destroy it.
いま我のぼりきたりてこの國をせめほろぼすはヱホバの旨にあらざるべけんや ヱホバわれにいひたまはく のぼりゆきてこの國をせめぼろぼせと
11 Then said Eliakim and Shebna and Joah unto Rabshakeh, Speak, I pray thee, unto thy servants in the Syrian language; for we understand it: and speak not to us in the Jews' language, in the ears of the people that are on the wall.
爰にエリアキムとセブナとヨアと共にラブシヤケにいひけるは請スリアの方言にて僕輩にかたれ我儕これをさとりうるなり石垣のうへなる民のきくところにてはユダヤの方言をもてわれらに語るなかれ
12 But Rabshakeh said, Hath my master sent me to thy master and to thee to speak these words? hath he not sent me to the men that sit upon the wall, that they may eat their own dung, and drink their own piss with you?
ラブシヤケいひけるは わが君はこれらのことをなんぢの君となんぢとにのみ語らんために我をつかはししならんや なんぢらと共におのが糞をくらひおのが溺をのまんとする石垣のうへに坐する人々にも我をつかはししならずや
13 Then Rabshakeh stood, and cried with a loud voice in the Jews' language, and said, Hear ye the words of the great king, the king of Assyria.
斯てラブシヤケたちてユダヤの方言もて大聲によばはりいひけるは なんぢら大王アツスリヤ王のことばをきくべし
14 Thus saith the king, Let not Hezekiah deceive you: for he shall not be able to deliver you.
王かくのたまへり なんぢらヒゼキヤに惑はさるるなかれ 彼なんぢらを救ふことあたはず
15 Neither let Hezekiah make you trust in YHWH, saying, YHWH will surely deliver us: this city shall not be delivered into the hand of the king of Assyria.
ヒゼキヤがなんぢらをヱホバに賴しめんとする言にしたがふなかれ 彼いへらく ヱホバかならず我儕をすくひこの邑はアツスリヤ王の手にわたさるることなしと
16 Hearken not to Hezekiah: for thus saith the king of Assyria, Make an agreement with me by a present, and come out to me: and eat ye every one of his vine, and every one of his fig tree, and drink ye every one the waters of his own cistern;
ヒゼキヤに聽從ふなかれ アツスリヤ王かくのたまへり なんぢらわれと親和をなし出できたりて我にくだれ おのおのその葡萄とその無花果とをくらひ かのおのその井の水をのむことを得べし
17 Until I come and take you away to a land like your own land, a land of corn and wine, a land of bread and vineyards.
遂には我きたりて汝等をほかの國にたづさへゆかん その國はなんぢの國のごとき國にして 穀物 ぶだう酒 パンおよび葡萄園あり
18 Beware lest Hezekiah persuade you, saying, YHWH will deliver us. Hath any of the elohim of the nations delivered his land out of the hand of the king of Assyria?
おそらくはをヒゼキヤなんぢらに説てヱホバわれらを救ふべしといはん 然どももろもろの國の神等のなかにその國をアツスリヤ王の手より救へる者ありしや
19 Where are the elohim of Hamath and Arphad? where are the elohim of Sepharvaim? and have they delivered Samaria out of my hand?
ハマテ、アルバデの神等いづこにありや セバルワイムの神等いづこにありや 又わが手よりサマリヤを救出しし神ありや
20 Who are they among all the elohim of these lands, that have delivered their land out of my hand, that YHWH should deliver Jerusalem out of my hand?
これらの國のもろもろの神のなかに誰かその國をわが手よりすくひいだしし者ありや さればヱホバも何でわが手よりヱルサレムを救ひいだし得んと
21 But they held their peace, and answered him not a word: for the king's commandment was, saying, Answer him not.
如此ありければ民は默して一言をもこたへざりき そは之にこたふるなかれとの王のおほせありつればなり
22 Then came Eliakim, the son of Hilkiah, that was over the household, and Shebna the scribe, and Joah, the son of Asaph, the recorder, to Hezekiah with their clothes rent, and told him the words of Rabshakeh.
そのときヒルキヤの子なる家司エリアキム書記セブナおよびアサフの子なる史官ヨアころもを裂てヒゼキヤにゆき之にラブシヤケの言をつげたり
