Esias 17
1 THE WORD AGAINST DAMASCUS. Behold, Damascus shall be taken away from among cities, and shall become a ruin;
ダマスコにかかはる重負の預言 いはく／視よダマスコは邑のすがたをうしなひて荒墟となるべし
2 abandoned for ever, to [be] a fold and resting-place for flocks, and there shall be none to go after them.
アロエルの諸邑はすてられん獸畜のむれそこにすみてその伏やすめるをおびやかす者もなからん
3 And she shall no longer be a strong place for Ephraim to flee to, and there shall no longer be a kingdom in Damascus, or a remnant of Syrians; for you are no better than the children of Israel, [even] than their glory; thus says the Lord of hosts.
エフライムの城はすたりダマスコの政治はやみ スリアの遺れる者はイスラエルの子輩のさかえのごとく消うせん 是は萬軍のヱホバの聖言なり
4 There shall be in that day a failure of the glory of Jacob, and the riches of his glory shall be shaken.
その日ヤコブの榮はおとろへその肥たる肉はやせて
5 And it shall be as if one should gather standing corn, and reap the grain of the ears; and it shall be as if one should gather ears in a rich valley;
あだかも收穫人の麥をかりあつめ腕をもて穂をかりたる後のごとくレパイムの谷に穂をひろひたるあとの如くならん
6 and [as if] there should be left stubble therein, or [as it were] the berries of an olive tree, two or three on the topmost bough, or [as if] four or five should be left on their branches; thus says the Lord, the God of Israel.
されど橄欖樹をうつとき二つ三の核を杪にのこし あるひは四つ五をみのりおほき樹の外面のえだに遺せるが如く採のこさるるものあるべし 是イスラエルの神ヱホバの聖言なり
7 In that day a man shall trust in him that made him, and his eyes shall have respect to the Holy One of Israel.
その日人おのれを造れるものを仰ぎのぞみイスラエルの聖者に目をとめん
8 And they shall not at all trust in their altars, nor in the works of their hands, which their fingers made; and they shall not look to the trees, nor to their abominations.
斯ておのれの手の工なる祭壇をあふぎ望まず おのれの指のつくりたるアシラの像と日の像とに目をとめじ
9 In that day your cities shall be deserted, as the Amorites and the Evaeans deserted [theirs], because of the children of Israel; and they shall be desolate.
その日かれが堅固なるまちまちは 昔イスラエルの子輩をさけてすてさりたる森のなか嶺のうへに今のこれる荒跡のごとく荒地となるべし
10 Because you have forsaken God your Saviour, and have not been mindful of the Lord your helper; therefore shall you plant a false plant, and a false seed.
そは汝おのがすくひの神をわすれ 己がちからとなるべき磐を心にとめざりしによる このゆゑになんぢ美くしき植物をうゑ異やうの枝をさし
11 In the day wherein you shall plant you shall be deceived; but if you sow in the morning, [the seed] shall spring up for a crop in the day wherein you shall obtain an inheritance, and as a man's father, you shall obtain an inheritance for your sons.
かつ植たる日に籬をまはし朝に芽をいださしむれども 患難の日といたましき憂の日ときたりて收穫の果はとびさらん
12 Woe [to] the multitude of many nations, as the swelling sea, so shall you be confounded; and the force of many nations shall sound like water;
唉おほくの民はなりどよめけり海のなりどよめく如くかれらも鳴動めけり もろもろの國はなりひびけり大水のなりひびくが如くかれらも鳴響けり
13 many nations like much water, as when much water rushes violently: and they shall drive him away, and pursue him afar, as the dust of chaff when men winnow before the wind, and as a storm whirling the dust of the wheel.
もろもろの國はおほくの水のなりひびくがごとく鳴響かん されど神かれらを攻たまふべし かれら遠くのがれて風にふきさらるる山のうへの粃糠のごとく また旋風にふきさらるる塵のごとくならん
14 Toward evening, and there shall be grief; before the morning, and he shall not be. This is the portion of them that spoiled you, and the inheritance to them that robbed you of your inheritance.
視よゆふぐれに恐怖あり いまだ黎明にいたらずして彼等は亡たり これ我儕をかすむる者のうくべき報われらを奪ふもののひくべき鬮なり
