Jeremiah 46
1 The word of YHWH which came to Jeremiah the prophet against the Gentiles;
茲にヱホバの言預言者ヱレミヤに臨みて諸國の事を論ふ
2 Against Egypt, against the army of Pharaoh-necho king of Egypt, which was by the river Euphrates in Carchemish, which Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon smote in the fourth year of Jehoiakim the son of Josiah king of Judah.
先エジプトの事すなはちユフラテ河の邊なるカルケミシの近傍にをるところのエジプト王パロネコの軍勢の事を論ふ是はユダの王ヨシヤの子ヱホヤキムの四年にバビロンの王ネブカデネザルが撃やぶりし者なり其言にいはく
3 Order ye the buckler and shield, and draw near to battle.
汝ら大楯小干を備へて進み戰へ
4 Harness the horses; and get up, ye horsemen, and stand forth with your helmets; furbish the spears, and put on the brigandines.
馬を車に繋ぎ馬に乗り盔を被りて立て戈を磨き甲を着よ
5 Wherefore have I seen them dismayed and turned away back? and their mighty ones are beaten down, and are fled apace, and look not back: for fear was round about, saith YHWH.
われ見るに彼らは懼れて退きその勇士は打敗られ狼狽遁て後をかへりみず是何故ぞや畏懼かれらのまはりにありとヱホバいひたまふ
6 Let not the swift flee away, nor the mighty man escape; they shall stumble, and fall toward the north by the river Euphrates.
快足なる者も逃えず強者も遁れえず皆北の方にてユフラテ河の旁に蹶き仆れん
7 Who is this that cometh up as a flood, whose waters are moved as the rivers?
かのナイルのごとくに湧あがり河のごとくに其水さかまく者は誰ぞや
8 Egypt riseth up like a flood, and his waters are moved like the rivers; and he saith, I will go up, and will cover the earth; I will destroy the city and the inhabitants thereof.
エジプトはナイルの如くに湧あがりその水は河の如くに逆まくなり而していふ我上りて地を蔽ひ邑とその中に住る者とを滅さん
9 Come up, ye horses; and rage, ye chariots; and let the mighty men come forth; the Ethiopians and the Libyans, that handle the shield; and the Lydians, that handle and bend the bow.
汝等馬に乗り車を驅馳らせよ勇士よ盾を執るエテオピア人プテ人および弓を張り挽くルデ人よ進みいづべし
10 For this is the day of the Master YHWH of hosts, a day of vengeance, that he may avenge him of his adversaries: and the sword shall devour, and it shall be satiate and made drunk with their blood: for the Master YHWH of hosts hath a sacrifice in the north country by the river Euphrates.
此は主なる萬軍のヱホバの復仇の日即ちその敵に仇を復し給ふ日なり劍は食ひて飽きその血に醉はん主なる萬軍のヱホバ北の地にてユフラテ河の旁に宰ることをなし給へばなり
11 Go up into Gilead, and take balm, O virgin, the daughter of Egypt: in vain shalt thou use many medicines; for thou shalt not be cured.
處女よエジプトの女よギレアデに上りて乳香を取れ汝多くの藥を用ふるも益なし汝は愈ざるべし
12 The nations have heard of thy shame, and thy cry hath filled the land: for the mighty man hath stumbled against the mighty, and they are fallen both together.
汝の恥辱は國々にきこえん汝の號泣は地に滿てり勇士は勇士にうち觸てともに仆る
13 The word that YHWH spake to Jeremiah the prophet, how Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon should come and smite the land of Egypt.
バビロンの王ネブカデネザルが來りてエジプトの地を撃んとする事につきてヱホバの預言者ヱレミヤに告たまひし言
14 Declare ye in Egypt, and publish in Migdol, and publish in Noph and in Tahpanhes: say ye, Stand fast, and prepare thee; for the sword shall devour round about thee.
汝らエジプトに宣べミグドルに示し又ノフ、タパネスに示しいふべし汝ら堅く立ちて自ら備よ 劍なんぢの四周を食ひたればなり
15 Why are thy valiant men swept away? they stood not, because YHWH did drive them.
汝の力ある者いかにして拂ひ除かれしやその立ざるはヱホバこれを仆したまふに由るなり
16 He made many to fall, yea, one fell upon another: and they said, Arise, and let us go again to our own people, and to the land of our nativity, from the oppressing sword.
彼多の者を蹶かせたまふ人其友の上に仆れかさなり而していふ起よ我ら滅すところの劍を避けてわが國にかへり故土にいたらんと
17 They did cry there, Pharaoh king of Egypt is but a noise; he hath passed the time appointed.
人彼處に叫びてエジプトの王パロは滅されたり彼は機會を失へりといふ
18 As I live, saith the King, whose name is YHWH of hosts, Surely as Tabor is among the mountains, and as Carmel by the sea, so shall he come.
萬軍のヱホバと名りたまふところの王いひたまふ我は活く彼は山々の中のタボルのごとく海の旁のカルメルのごとくに來らん
19 O thou daughter dwelling in Egypt, furnish thyself to go into captivity: for Noph shall be waste and desolate without an inhabitant.
エジプトに住る女よ汝移轉の器皿を備へよそはノフは荒蕪となり燒れて住む人なきにいたるべければなり
20 Egypt is like a very fair heifer, but destruction cometh; it cometh out of the north.
エジプトは至美しき牝の犢のごとし蜚虻きたり北の方より來る
21 Also her hired men are in the midst of her like fatted bullocks; for they also are turned back, and are fled away together: they did not stand, because the day of their calamity was come upon them, and the time of their visitation.
また其中の傭人は肥たる犢のごとし彼ら轉向てともに逃げ立ことをせず是その滅さるる日いたり其罰せらるる時來りたればなり
22 The voice thereof shall go like a serpent; for they shall march with an army, and come against her with axes, as hewers of wood.
彼は蛇の如く聲をいだす彼ら軍勢を率ゐて來り樵夫の如く斧をもて之にのぞめり
23 They shall cut down her forest, saith YHWH, though it cannot be searched; because they are more than the grasshoppers, and are innumerable.
ヱホバいひ給ふ彼らは探りえざるに由りて彼の林を砍仆せり彼等は蝗蟲よりも多して數へがたし
24 The daughter of Egypt shall be confounded; she shall be delivered into the hand of the people of the north.
エジプトの女は辱められ北の民の手に付されん
25 YHWH of hosts, the Elohim of Israel, saith; Behold, I will punish the multitude of No, and Pharaoh, and Egypt, with their elohim, and their kings; even Pharaoh, and all them that trust in him:
萬軍のヱホバ、イスラエルの神いひ給ふ視よわれノフのアモンとパロとエジプトとその諸神とその王等すなはちパロとかれを賴むものとを罰せん
26 And I will deliver them into the hand of those that seek their lives, and into the hand of Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon, and into the hand of his servants: and afterward it shall be inhabited, as in the days of old, saith YHWH.
われ彼らを其生命を索むる者の手とバビロンの王ネブカデネザルの手とその臣僕の手に付すべしその後この地は昔のごとく人の住むところとならんとヱホバいひたまふ
27 But fear not thou, O my servant Jacob, and be not dismayed, O Israel: for, behold, I will save thee from afar off, and thy seed from the land of their captivity; and Jacob shall return, and be in rest and at ease, and none shall make him afraid
我僕ヤコブよ怖るる勿れイスラエルよ驚く勿れ視よわれ汝を遠方より救ひきたり汝の子孫をその擄移されたる地より救ひとるべしヤコブは歸りて平安と寧靜をえん彼を畏れしむる者なかるべし
28 Fear thou not, O Jacob my servant, saith YHWH: for I am with thee; for I will make a full end of all the nations whither I have driven thee: but I will not make a full end of thee, but correct thee in measure; yet will I not leave thee wholly unpunished.
ヱホバいひたまふ我僕ヤコブよ汝怖るる勿れ我汝と偕にあればなり我汝を逐やりし國々を悉く滅すべけれど汝をば悉くは滅さじわれ道をもて汝を懲し汝を全くは罪なき者とせざるべし
