< Ezekiel 39 >
1 “And you, son of man, prophesy concerning Gog, and you have said, Thus said Lord YHWH: Behold, I [am] against you, O Gog, Chief prince of [[or prince of Rosh, ]] Meshech and Tubal,
人の子よ、ゴグに向かって預言して言え。主なる神はこう言われる、メセクとトバルの大君であるゴグよ、見よ、わたしはあなたの敵となる。
2 And have turned you back, and enticed you, And caused you to come up from the sides of the north, And brought you in against mountains of Israel,
わたしはあなたを引きもどし、あなたを押しやり、北の果から上らせ、イスラエルの山々に導き、
3 And have struck your bow out of your left hand, Indeed, I cause your arrows to fall out of your right.
あなたの左の手から弓を打ち落し、右の手から矢を落させる。
4 You fall on mountains of Israel, You, and all your bands, and the peoples who [are] with you, To ravenous bird—a bird of every wing, And [to] a beast of the field, I have given you for food.
あなたとあなたのすべての軍隊およびあなたと共にいる民たちは、イスラエルの山々に倒れる。わたしはあなたを、諸種の猛禽と野獣とに与えて食わせる。
5 You fall on the face of the field, for I have spoken, A declaration of Lord YHWH.
あなたは野の面に倒れる。わたしがこれを言ったからであると、主なる神は言われる。
6 And I have sent a fire against Magog, And against the confident inhabitants of the islands, And they have known that I [am] YHWH.
わたしはゴグと、海沿いの国々に安らかに住む者に対して火を送り、彼らにわたしが主であることを悟らせる。
7 And I make My holy Name known in the midst of My people Israel, And I do not defile My holy Name anymore, And the nations have known that I, YHWH, the Holy One, [am] in Israel.
わたしはわが聖なる名を、わが民イスラエルのうちに知らせ、重ねてわが聖なる名を汚させない。諸国民はわたしが主、イスラエルの聖者であることを悟る。
8 Behold, it has come, and it has been done, A declaration of Lord YHWH, It [is] the day of which I spoke.
主なる神は言われる、見よ、これは来る、必ず成就する。これはわたしが言った日である。
9 And those dwelling [in the] cities of Israel have gone out, And they have burned and kindled [a fire], With armor, and shield, and buckler, With bow, and with arrows, And with hand weapon, and with javelin, And they have caused a fire to burn seven years with them,
イスラエルの町々に住む者は出て来て、武器すなわち大盾、小盾、弓、矢、手やり、およびやりなどを燃やし、焼き、七年の間これを火に燃やす。
10 And they do not take wood out of the field, Nor do they hew out of the forests, For they cause the fire to burn with armor, And they have spoiled their spoilers, And they have plundered their plunderers, A declaration of Lord YHWH.
彼らは野から木を取らず、森から木を切らず、武器で火を燃やし、自分をかすめた者をかすめ、自分の物を奪った者を奪うと、主なる神は言われる。
11 And it has come to pass in that day, I give a place to Gog there—a grave in Israel, the valley of those passing by, east of the sea, and it is stopping those passing by, and they have buried there Gog, and all his multitude, and have cried, O valley of the multitude of Gog!
その日、わたしはイスラエルのうちに、墓地をゴグに与える。これは旅びとの谷にあって海の東にある。これは旅びとを妨げる。そこにゴグとその民衆を埋めるからである。これをハモン・ゴグの谷と名づける。
12 And the house of Israel has buried them—in order to cleanse the land—seven months.
イスラエルの家はこれを埋めて、地を清めるために七か月を費す。
13 Indeed, all the people of the land have buried them, and it has been to them for a name—the day of My being honored—a declaration of Lord YHWH.
国のすべての民はこれを埋め、これによって名を高める。これはわが栄えを現す日であると、主なる神は言われる。
14 And they separate men for continual employment, with those passing through, passing on through the land, burying those who are left on the face of the earth, to cleanse it. At the end of seven months they search.
彼らは人々を選んで、絶えず国の中を行きめぐらせ、地のおもてに残っている者を埋めて、これを清めさせる。七か月の終りに彼らは尋ねる。
15 And those passing by have passed through the land, and seen a bone of man, and one has constructed a sign near it until those burying have buried it in the valley of the multitude of Gog.
国を行きめぐる者が行きめぐって、人の骨を見る時、死人を埋める者が、これをハモン・ゴグの谷に埋めるまで、そのかたわらに、標を建てて置く。
16 And also the name of the city [is] The Multitude; and they have cleansed the land.
(ハモナの町もそこにある。)こうして彼らはその国を清める。
17 And you, son of man, thus said Lord YHWH: Say to the bird—every wing, and to every beast of the field: Be assembled and come in, Be gathered from all around, For My sacrifice that I am sacrificing for you, A great sacrifice on mountains of Israel, And you have eaten flesh, and drunk blood.
主なる神はこう言われる、人の子よ、諸種の鳥と野の獣とに言え、みな集まってこい。わたしがおまえたちのために供えた犠牲、すなわちイスラエルの山々の上にある、大いなる犠牲に、四方から集まり、その肉を食い、その血を飲め。
18 You eat [the] flesh of [the] mighty, And you drink [the] blood of [the] princes of the earth, Of rams, of lambs, and of male goats, Of calves, fatlings of Bashan—all of them.
おまえたちは勇士の肉を食い、地の君たちの血を飲め。雄羊、小羊、雄やぎ、雄牛などすべてバシャンの肥えた獣を食え。
19 And you have eaten fat to satiety, And you have drunk blood—to drunkenness, Of My sacrifice that I sacrificed for you.
わたしがおまえたちのために供えた犠牲は、飽きるまでその脂肪を食べ、酔うまで血を飲め。
20 And you have been satisfied at My table with horse and rider, Mighty man, and every man of war, A declaration of Lord YHWH.
おまえたちはわが食卓について馬と、騎手と、勇士と、もろもろの戦士とを飽きるほど食べると、主なる神は言われる。
21 And I have given My glory among nations, And all the nations have seen My judgment that I have done, And My hand that I have laid on them.
わたしはわが栄光を諸国民に示す。すべての国民はわたしが行ったさばきと、わたしが彼らの上に加えた手とを見る。
22 And the house of Israel has known that I [am] their God YHWH, From that day and from now on.
この日から後、イスラエルの家はわたしが彼らの神、主であることを悟るようになる。
23 And the nations have known That the house of Israel was removed for their iniquity, Because they have trespassed against Me, And I hide My face from them, And give them into the hand of their adversaries, And they fall by sword—all of them.
また諸国民はイスラエルの家が、その悪によって捕え移されたことを悟る。彼らがわたしにそむいたので、わたしはわが顔を彼らに隠し、彼らをその敵の手に渡した。それで彼らは皆つるぎに倒れた。
24 According to their uncleanness, And according to their transgressions, I have done with them, And I hide My face from them.
わたしは彼らの汚れと、とがとに従って、彼らを扱い、わたしの顔を彼らに隠した。
25 Therefore, thus said Lord YHWH: Now I bring back the captivity of Jacob, And I have pitied all the house of Israel, And have been zealous for My holy Name.
それゆえ、主なる神はこう言われる、いまわたしはヤコブの幸福をもとに返し、イスラエルの全家をあわれみ、わが聖なる名のために、ねたみを起す。
26 And they have forgotten their shame, And all their trespass that they trespassed against Me, In their dwelling on their land confidently and none troubling.
彼らは、その国に安らかに住み、だれもこれを恐れさせる者がないようになった時、自分の恥と、わたしに向かってなした反逆とを忘れる。
27 In My bringing them back from the peoples, I have assembled them from the lands of their enemies, And I have been sanctified in them before the eyes of the many nations,
わたしが彼らを諸国民の中から帰らせ、その敵の国から呼び集め、彼らによって、わたしの聖なることを、多くの国民の前に示す時、
28 And they have known that I [am] their God YHWH, In My removing them to the nations, And I have gathered them to their land, And I leave none of them there anymore.
彼らは、わたしが彼らの神、主であることを悟る。これはわたしが彼らを諸国民のうちに移し、またこれをその国に呼び集めたからである。わたしはそのひとりをも、国々のうちに残すことをしない。
29 And I do not hide My face from them anymore, In that I have poured out My Spirit on the house of Israel, A declaration of Lord YHWH!”
わたしは、わが霊をイスラエルの家に注ぐ時、重ねてわが顔を彼らに隠さないと、主なる神は言われる」。
