Jeremias 22
1 Thus says the Lord; Go you, and go down to the house of the king of Juda, and you shall speak there this word,
ヱホバかくいひたまへり汝ユダの王の室にくだり彼處にこの言をのべていへ
2 and you shall say, Hear the word of the Lord, O king of Juda, that sit on the throne of David, you, and your house, and your people, and they that go in at these gates:
ダビデの位に坐するユダの王よ汝と汝の臣および此門よりいる汝の民ヱホバの言をきけ
3 thus says the Lord; Execute you judgment and justice, and rescue the spoiled out of the hand of him that wrongs him: and oppress not the stranger, and orphan, and widow, and sin not, and shed no innocent blood in this place.
ヱホバかくいふ汝ら公道と公義を行ひ物を奪はるる人をその暴虐者の手より救ひ異邦人と孤子と嫠婦をなやまし虐ぐる勿れまた此處に無辜の血を流す勿れ
4 For if you will indeed perform this word, then shall there enter in by the gates of this house kings sitting upon the throne of David, and riding on chariots and horses, they, and their servants, and their people.
汝らもし此言を眞に行はばダビデの位に坐する王とその臣および其民は車と馬に乗てこの室の門にいることをえん
5 But if you will not perform these words, by myself have I sworn, says the Lord, that this house shall be [brought] to desolation.
然ど汝らもし此言を聽ずばわれ自己を指して誓ふ此室は荒地となるべしとヱホバいひたまふ
6 For thus says the Lord concerning the house of the king of Juda; You are Galaad to me, [and] the head of Libanus: [yet] surely I will make you a desert, [even] cities that shall not be inhabited:
ヱホバ、ユダの王の家につきてかく曰たまふ汝は我におけることギレアデのごとくレバノンの巓のごとし然どわれかならず汝を荒野となし人の住はざる邑となさん
7 and I will bring upon you a destroying man, and his axe: and they shall cut down your choice cedars, and cast [them] into the fire.
われ破壞者をまふけて汝を攻めしめん彼ら各人その武器を執り汝の美しき香柏を斫てこれを火に投いれん
8 And nations shall pass through this city, and each shall say to his neighbor, Why has the Lord done thus to this great city?
多の國の人此邑をすぎ互に語てヱホバ何なれば此大なる邑にかく爲せしやといはんに
9 And they shall say, Because they forsook the covenant of the Lord their God, and worshipped strange gods, and served them.
人こたへて是は彼等其神ヱホバの契約をすてて他の神を拜し之に奉へしに由なりといはん
10 Weep not for the dead, nor lament for him: weep bitterly for him that goes away: for he shall return no more, nor see his native land.
死者の爲に泣くことなくまた之が爲に嗟くこと勿れ寧擄へ移されし者の爲にいたく嗟くべし彼は再び歸てその故園を見ざるべければなり
11 For thus says the Lord concerning Sellem the son of Josias, who reigns in the place of Josias his father, who has gone forth out of this place; He shall not return there any more:
ユダの王ヨシヤの子シヤルム即ちその父に繼で王となりて遂に此處をいでたる者につきてヱホバかくいひたまへり彼は再び此處に歸らじ
12 but in that place whither I have carried him captive, there shall he die, and shall see this land no more.
彼はその移されし處に死んふたたび此地を見ざるべし
13 He that builds his house not with justice, and his upper chambers not with judgment, who works by means of his neighbor for nothing, and will by no means give him his reward.
不義をもて其室をつくり不法をもて其樓を造り其隣人を傭て何をも與へず其價を拂はざる者は禍なるかな
14 You have built for yourself a well-proportioned house, airy chambers, fitted with windows, and wainscoted with cedar, and painted with vermilion.
彼いふ我己の爲に廣厦と涼しき樓をつくり又己の爲に窓を造り香柏をもて之を蔽ひ赤く之を塗んと
15 Shall you reign, because you are provoked with your father Achaz? they shall not eat, and they shall not drink: it is better for you to execute judgment and justice.
汝香柏を爭ひもちふるによりて王たるを得るか汝の父は食飮せざりしや公義と公道を行ひて福を得ざりしや
16 They understood not, they judged not the cause of the afflicted, nor the cause of the poor: is not this your not knowing me? says the Lord.
彼は貧者と患艱者の訟を理して祥をえたりかく爲すは我を識ことに非ずやとヱホバいひ給ふ
17 Behold, your eyes are not good, nor your heart, but [they go] after your covetousness, and after the innocent blood to shed it, and after acts of injustice and slaughter, to commit them.
然ど汝の目と心は惟貪をなさんとし無辜の血を流さんとし虐遇と暴逆をなさんとするのみ
18 Therefore thus says the Lord concerning Joakim son of Josias, king of Juda, even concerning this man; they shall not bewail him, [saying], Ah brother! neither shall they at all weep for him, [saying], Alas Lord.
故にヱホバ、ユダの王のヨシヤの子ヱホヤキムにつきてかく曰たまふ衆人は哀しいかな我兄かなしいかな我姊といひて嗟かず又哀しいかな主よ哀しいかな其榮と曰て嗟かじ
19 He shall be buried with the burial of an ass; he shall be dragged roughly along and cast outside the gate of Jerusalem.
彼は驢馬を埋るがごとく埋られん即ち曳れてヱルサレムの門の外に投棄らるべし
20 Go up to Libanus, and cry; and utter your voice to Basan, and cry aloud to the extremity of the sea: for all your lovers are destroyed.
汝レバノンに登りて呼ばはりバシヤンに汝の聲を揚げアバリムより呼はれ其は汝の愛する者悉く滅されたればなり
21 I spoke to you on [occasion of] your trespass, but you said, I will not listen. This [has been] your way from your youth, you have not listened to my voice.
汝の平康なる時我汝に語しかども汝は我にきかじといへり汝いとけなき時よりわが聲を聽ずこれ汝の故習なり
22 The wind shall tend all your shepherds, and your lovers shall go into captivity; for then shall you be ashamed and disgraced because of all your lovers.
汝の牧者はみな風に呑つくされ汝の愛する者はとらへ移されん其時汝はおのれの諸の惡のために痛く恥べし
23 O you that dwell in Libanus, making your nest in the cedars, you shall groan heavily, when pangs as of a travailing woman are come upon you.
汝レバノンにすみ巢を香柏につくる者よ汝の劬勞子を產む婦の痛苦のごとくにきたらんとき汝の哀慘はいかにぞや
24 [As] I live, says the Lord, though Jechonias son of Joakim king of Juda were indeed the seal upon my right hand, thence would I pluck you;
ヱホバいひたまふ我は活くユダの王ヱホヤキムの子ヱコニヤは我右の手の指環なれども我これを拔ん
25 and I will deliver you into the hands of them that seek your life, before whom you are afraid, into the hands of the Chaldeans.
われ汝の生命を索る者の手および汝が其面を畏るる者の手すなはちバビロンの王ネブカデネザルの手とカルデヤ人の手に汝を付さん
26 And I will cast forth you, and your mother that bore you, into a land where you were not born; and there you shall die.
われ汝と汝を生し母を汝等がうまれざりし他の地に逐やらん汝ら彼處に死べし
27 But they shall by no means return to the land which they long for in their souls.
彼らの靈魂のいたく歸らんことを願ふところの地に彼らは歸ることをえず
28 Jechonias is dishonored as a good-for-nothing vessel; for he is thrown out and cast forth into a land which he knew not.
この人ヱコニヤは賤しむべき壞れたる器ならんや好ましからざる器具ならんや如何なれば彼と其子孫は逐出されてその識ざる地に投やらるるや
29 Land, land, hear the word of the Lord.
地よ地よ地よヱホバの言をきけ
30 Write you this man an outcast: for there shall none of his seed at all grow up to sit on the throne of David, [or as] a prince yet in Juda.
ヱホバかくいひたまふこの人を子なくして其生命の中に榮えざる人と錄せそはその子孫のうちに榮えてダビデの位に坐しユダを治る人かさねてなかるべければなり
