< Isaiah 51 >
1 “Listen to Me, you pursuing righteousness, Seeking YHWH, Look attentively to the rock—you have been hewn, And to the hole of the pit—you have been dug.
義をおひ求めヱホバを尋ねもとむるものよ我にきけ なんぢらが斫出されたる磐となんぢらの掘出されたる穴とをおもひ見よ
2 Look attentively to your father Abraham, And to Sarah—she brings you forth, For—one—I have called him, And I bless him, and multiply him.”
なんぢらの父アブラハム及びなんぢらを生たるサラをおもひ見よ われ彼をその唯一人なりしときに召しこれを祝してその子孫をまし加へたり
3 For YHWH has comforted Zion, He has comforted all her ruins, And He sets her wilderness as Eden, And her desert as a garden of YHWH, Joy, indeed, gladness is found in her, Confession, and the voice of song.
そはヱホバ、シオンを慰め またその凡てあれたる所をなぐさめて その荒野をエデンのごとくその沙漠をヱホバの園のごとくなしたまへり 斯てその中によろこびと歡樂とあり感謝とうたうたふ聲とありてきこゆ
4 “Attend to Me, O My people, And, O My nation, give ear to Me. For a law goes out from Me, And My judgment to the light, I cause peoples to rest.
わが民よわが言にこころをとめよ わが國人よわれに耳をかたぶけよ 律法はわれより出づ われわが途をかたく定めてもろもろの民の光となさん
5 My righteousness [is] near, My salvation has gone out, And My arms judge peoples, Islands wait on Me, Indeed, on My arm they wait with hope.
わが義はちかづきわが救はすでに出たり わが臂はもろもろの民をさばかん もろもろの島はわれを俟望み わがかひなに依賴ん
6 Lift up your eyes to the heavens, And look attentively to the earth beneath, For the heavens have vanished as smoke, And the earth wears out as a garment, And its inhabitants die as gnats, And My salvation is for all time, And My righteousness is not broken.
なんぢら目をあげて天を觀また下なる地をみよ 天は烟のごとくきえ地は衣のごとくふるびその中にすむ者これとひとしく死ん されどわが救はとこしへにながらへ わが義はくだくることなし
7 Listen to Me, you who know righteousness, A people in whose heart [is] My law, Do not fear the reproach of men, And do not be frightened of their reviling,
義をしるものよ心のうちにわが律法をたもつ民よ われにきけ 人のそしりをおそるるなかれ人のののしりに慴くなかれ
8 For a moth eats them as a garment, And a worm eats them as wool, And My righteousness is for all time, And My salvation from generation to generation.”
そはかれら衣のごとく蠧にはまれ羊の毛のごとく蟲にはまれん されどわが義はとこしへに存らへ わがすくひ萬代におよぶべし
9 Awake, awake, put on strength, O arm of YHWH, Awake, as [in] days of old, generations of the ages, Are You not it that is hewing down Rahab, Piercing a dragon?
さめよ醒よヱホバの臂よちからを着よ さめて古への時むかしの代にありし如くなれ ラハブをきりころし鱷をさしつらぬきたるは汝にあらずや
10 Are You not it that is drying up a sea, Waters of a great deep? That has made deep places of a sea A way for the passing of the redeemed?
海をかわかし大なる淵の水をかわかし また海のふかきところを贖はれたる人のすぐべき路となししは汝にあらずや
11 And the ransomed of YHWH return, And they have come to Zion with singing, And continuous joy [is] on their head, They attain gladness and joy, Sorrow and sighing have fled away,
ヱホバに贖ひすくはれしもの歌うたひつつ歸りてシオンにきたり その首にとこしへの歡喜をいただきて快樂とよろこびとをえん 而してかなしみと歎息とはにげさるべし
12 “I [am] He who comforts you, Who [are] you—and you are afraid of man? He dies! And of the son of man—he is made [like] grass!
我こそ我なんぢらを慰むれ 汝いかなる者なれば死べき人をおそれ草の如くなるべき人の子をおそるるか
13 And you forget YHWH your Maker, Who is stretching out the heavens, and founding earth, And you continually fear all the day, Because of the fury of the oppressor, As he has prepared to destroy. And where [is] the fury of the oppressor?
いかなれば天をのべ地の基をすゑ汝をつくりたまへるヱホバを忘れしや 何なれば汝をほろぼさんとて豫備する虐ぐるものの憤れるをみて常にひねもす懼るるか 虐ぐるものの忿恚はいづこにありや
14 A wanderer has hurried to be loosed, And he does not die in the pit, And his bread is not lacking.
身をかがめゐる俘囚はすみやかに解れて 死ることなく穴にくだることなく その食はつくること無るべし
15 And I [am] your God YHWH, Quieting the sea when its billows roar, YHWH of Hosts [is] His Name.
我は海をふるはせ波をなりどよめかする汝の神ヱホバなり その御名を萬軍のヱホバといふ
16 And I put My words in your mouth, And have covered you with the shadow of My hand, To plant the heavens, and to found earth, And to say to Zion, You [are] My people.”
我わが言をなんぢの口におきわが手のかげにて汝をおほへり かくてわれ天をうゑ地の基をすゑ シオンにむかひて汝はわが民なりといはん
17 Stir yourself, stir yourself, rise, Jerusalem, You who have drunk from the hand of YHWH The cup of His fury, The goblet, the cup of trembling, you have drunk, You have wrung out.
ヱルサレムよさめよさめよ起よ なんぢ前にヱホバの手よりその忿恚のさかづきをうけて飮み よろめかす大杯をのみ且すひほしたり
18 There is not a leader to her Out of all the sons she has borne, And there is none laying hold on her hand Out of all the sons she has nourished.
なんぢの生るもろもろの子のなかに汝をみちびく者なく 汝のそだてたるもろもろの子の中にてなんぢの手をたづさふる者なし
19 These two are meeting you, Who is moved for you? Spoiling and destruction, famine and sword! By whom do I comfort you?
この二のこと汝にのぞめり誰かなんぢのために歎んや 荒廢の饑饉ほろびの劍なんぢに及べり我いかにして汝をなぐさめんや
20 Your sons have been wrapped up, they have lain down, At the head of all out places, as an antelope [in] a dragnet, They are full of the fury of YHWH, The rebuke of Your God.
なんぢの子らは息たえだえにして網にかかれる羚羊のごとくし街衢の口にふす ヱホバの忿恚となんぢの神のせめとはかれらに滿たり
21 Therefore, please hear this, O afflicted and drunken one, and not with wine,
このゆゑに苦しめるもの酒にあらで酔たるものよ之をきけ
22 Thus said your Lord YHWH, and your God, He pleads [for] His people: “Behold, I have taken the cup of trembling out of your hand, The goblet, the cup of My fury, You do not add to drink it anymore.
なんぢの主ヱホバおのが民の訟をあげつらひ給ふ なんぢの神かくいひ給ふ 我よろめかす酒杯をなんぢの手より取除き わがいきどほりの大杯をとりのぞきたり 汝ふたたびこれを飮ことあらじ
23 And I have put it into the hand of those afflicting you, Who have said to your soul, Bow down, and we pass over, And you make your body as the earth, And as the street to those passing by!”
我これを汝をなやますものの手にわたさん 彼らは曩になんぢの靈魂にむかひて云らく なんぢ伏せよわれら越ゆかんと 而してなんぢその背を地のごとくし衢のごとくし彼等のこえゆくに任せたり
