< Isaiah 43 >

1 But now thus saith the LORD that created thee, O Jacob, and he that formed thee, O Israel, Fear not: for I have redeemed thee, I have called [thee] by thy name; thou [art] mine.
ヤコブよなんぢを創造せるヱホバいま如此いひ給ふ イスラエルよ汝をつくれるもの今かく言給ふ おそるるなかれ我なんぢを贖へり 我なんぢの名をよべり汝はわが有なり
2 When thou passest through the waters, I [will be] with thee; and through the rivers, they shall not overflow thee: when thou walkest through the fire, thou shalt not be burned; neither shall the flame kindle upon thee.
なんぢ水中をすぐるときは我ともにあらん河のなかを過るときは水なんぢの上にあふれじ なんぢ火中をゆくとき焚るることなく火焰もまた燃つかじ
3 For I [am] the LORD thy God, the Holy One of Israel, thy Saviour: I gave Egypt [for] thy ransom, Ethiopia and Seba for thee.
我はヱホバなんぢの神イスラエルの聖者 なんぢの救主なり われエジプトを予えてなんぢの贖代となし エテオピアとセバとをなんぢに代ふ
4 Since thou wast precious in my sight, thou hast been honourable, and I have loved thee: therefore will I give men for thee, and people for thy life.
われ看てなんぢを寶とし尊きものとして亦なんぢを愛す この故にわれ人をもてなんぢにかへ 民をなんぢの命にかへん
5 Fear not: for I [am] with thee: I will bring thy seed from the east, and gather thee from the west;
懼るるなかれ我なんぢとともにあり 我なんぢの裔を東よりきたらせ西より汝をあつむべし
6 I will say to the north, Give up; and to the south, Keep not back: bring my sons from far, and my daughters from the ends of the earth;
われ北にむかひて釋せといひ南にむかひて留るなかれといはん わが子輩を遠きよりきたらせ わが女らを地の極よりきたらせよ
7 [Even] every one that is called by my name: for I have created him for my glory, I have formed him; yea, I have made him.
すべてわが名をもて稱へらるる者をきたらせよ 我かれらをわが榮光のために創造せり われ曩にこれを造りかつ成をはれり
8 Bring forth the blind people that have eyes, and the deaf that have ears.
目あれども瞽者のごとく耳あれど聾者のごとき民をたづさへ出よ
9 Let all the nations be gathered together, and let the people be assembled: who among them can declare this, and shew us former things? let them bring forth their witnesses, that they may be justified: or let them hear, and say, [It is] truth.
國々はみな相集ひもろもろの民はあつまるべし 彼等のうち誰かいやさきに成るべきことをつげ之をわれらに聞することを得んや その證人をいだして己の是なるをあらはすべし 彼等ききて此はまことなりといはん
10 Ye [are] my witnesses, saith the LORD, and my servant whom I have chosen: that ye may know and believe me, and understand that I [am] he: before me there was no God formed, neither shall there be after me.
ヱホバ宣給くなんぢらはわが證人わがえらみし僕なり 然ばなんぢら知てわれを信じわが主なるをさとりうべし 我よりまへにつくられし神なく我よりのちにもあることなからん
11 I, [even] I, [am] the LORD; and beside me [there is] no saviour.
ただ我のみ我はヱホバなり われの外にすくふ者あることなし
12 I have declared, and have saved, and I have shewed, when [there was] no strange [god] among you: therefore ye [are] my witnesses, saith the LORD, that I [am] God.
われ前につげまた救をほどこし また此事をきかせたり 汝等のうちには他神なかりき なんぢらはわが證人なり 我は神なり これヱホバ宣給るなり
13 Yea, before the day [was] I [am] he; and [there is] none that can deliver out of my hand: I will work, and who shall let it?
今よりわれは主なりわが手より救ひいだし得るものなし われ行はば誰かとどむることを得んや
14 Thus saith the LORD, your redeemer, the Holy One of Israel; For your sake I have sent to Babylon, and have brought down all their nobles, and the Chaldeans, whose cry [is] in the ships.
なんぢらを贖ふものイスラエルの聖者ヱホバかく言たまふ なんぢらの爲にわれ人をバビロンにつかはし彼處にあるカルデヤ人をことごとく下らせ その宴樂の船にのりてのがれしむ
15 I [am] the LORD, your Holy One, the creator of Israel, your King.
われはヱホバなんぢらの聖者イスラエルを創造せしもの又なんぢらの王なり
16 Thus saith the LORD, which maketh a way in the sea, and a path in the mighty waters;
ヱホバは海のなかに大路をまうけ大なる水のなかに徑をつくり
17 Which bringeth forth the chariot and horse, the army and the power; they shall lie down together, they shall not rise: they are extinct, they are quenched as tow.
戰車および馬 軍兵 武士をいできたらせ ことごとく仆れて起ることあたはず 皆ほろびて燈火のきえうするが如くならしめ給へり
18 Remember ye not the former things, neither consider the things of old.
ヱホバ言給く なんぢら往昔のことを思ひいづるなかれ また上古のことをかんがふるなかれ
19 Behold, I will do a new thing; now it shall spring forth; shall ye not know it? I will even make a way in the wilderness, [and] rivers in the desert.
視よわれ新しき事をなさん頓ておこるべし なんぢら知ざるべけんや われ荒野に道をまうけ沙漠に河をつくらん
20 The beast of the field shall honour me, the dragons and the owls: because I give waters in the wilderness, [and] rivers in the desert, to give drink to my people, my chosen.
野の獸われを崇むべし 野犬および駝鳥もまた然り われ水を荒野にいだし河を沙漠にまうけてわが民わがえらびたる者にのましむべければなり
21 This people have I formed for myself; they shall shew forth my praise.
この民はわが頌美をのべしめんとて我おのれのために造れるなり
22 But thou hast not called upon me, O Jacob; but thou hast been weary of me, O Israel.
然るにヤコブよ汝われを呼たのまざりき イスラエルよ汝われを厭ひたり
23 Thou hast not brought me the small cattle of thy burnt offerings; neither hast thou honoured me with thy sacrifices. I have not caused thee to serve with an offering, nor wearied thee with incense.
なんぢ燔祭のひつじを我にもちきたらず犠牲をもて我をあがめざりき われ汝にそなへものの荷をおはせざりき また乳香をもて汝をわづらはせざりき
24 Thou hast bought me no sweet cane with money, neither hast thou filled me with the fat of thy sacrifices: but thou hast made me to serve with thy sins, thou hast wearied me with thine iniquities.
なんぢは銀貨をもて我がために菖蒲をかはず 犠牲のあぶらをもて我をあかしめず 反てなんぢの罪の荷をわれに負せ なんぢの邪曲にて我をわづらはせたり
25 I, [even] I, [am] he that blotteth out thy transgressions for mine own sake, and will not remember thy sins.
われこそ我みづからの故によりてなんぢの咎をけし汝のつみを心にとめざるなれ
26 Put me in remembrance: let us plead together: declare thou, that thou mayest be justified.
なんぢその是なるをあらはさんがために己が事をのべて我に記念せしめよ われら相共にあげつらふべし
27 Thy first father hath sinned, and thy teachers have transgressed against me.
なんぢの遠祖つみををかし汝のをしへの師われにそむけり
28 Therefore I have profaned the princes of the sanctuary, and have given Jacob to the curse, and Israel to reproaches.
この故にわれ聖所の長たちを汚さしめヤコブを詛はしめイスラエルをののしらしめん
