Micah 7
1 My woe [is] to me, For I have been as gatherings of summer-fruit, As gleanings of harvest, There is no cluster to eat, The first-ripe fruit has my soul desired.
我は禍なるかな 我の景况は夏の菓物を採る時のごとく遺れる葡萄を斂むる時に似たり 食ふべき葡萄あること無く我が心に嗜む初結の無花果あること無し
2 The kind have perished out of the land, And upright among men—there are none, All of them lie in wait for blood, They each hunt his brother [with] a net.
善人地に絶ゆ 人の中に直き者なし 皆血を流さんと伏て伺ひ各々網をもてその兄弟を獵る
3 On the evil [are] both hands to do [it] well, The prince is asking—also the judge—for repayment, And the great—he is speaking the mischief of his soul, And they wrap it up.
兩手は惡を善なすに急がし 牧伯は要求め裁判人は賄賂を取り力ある人はその心の惡き望を言あらはし斯共にその惡をあざなひ合す
4 Their best one [is] as a brier, The upright one—than a thorn-hedge, The day of your watchmen—Your visitation—has come. Now is their perplexity.
彼らの最も善き者も荊棘のごとく最も直き者も刺ある樹の垣より惡し 汝の觀望人の日すなはち汝の刑罰の日いたる 彼らの中に今混亂あらん
5 Do not believe in a friend, Do not trust in a leader, From her who is lying in your bosom keep the openings of your mouth.
汝ら伴侶を信ずる勿れ 朋友を恃むなかれ 汝の懐に寢る者にむかひても汝の口の戸を守れ
6 For a son is dishonoring a father, A daughter has stood against her mother, A daughter-in-law against her mother-in-law, The enemies of each [are] the men of his house.
男子は父を藐視め女子は母の背き媳は姑に背かん 人の敵はその家の者なるべし
7 And I—in YHWH I watch, I wait for the God of my salvation, My God hears me.
我はヱホバを仰ぎ望み我を救ふ神を望み俟つ 我神われに聽たまふべし
8 You do not rejoice over me, O my enemy, When I have fallen, I have risen, When I sit in darkness YHWH is a light to me.
我敵人よ我につきて喜ぶなかれ 我仆るれば興あがる 幽暗に居ればヱホバ我の光となりたまふ
9 I bear the indignation of YHWH, For I have sinned against Him, Until He pleads my cause, And has executed my judgment, He brings me forth to the light, I look on His righteousness.
ヱホバわが訴訟を理し我ために審判をおこなひたまふまで我は忍びてその忿怒をかうむらん 其は我これに罪を得たればなり ヱホバつひに我を光明に携へいだし給はん 而して我ヱホバの正義を見ん
10 And my enemy sees, And shame covers her, Who says to me, “Where [is] your God YHWH?” My eyes look on her, Now she is for a treading-place, As mire of the out-places.
わが敵これを見ん 汝の神ヱホバは何處にをるやと我に言る者 恥辱をかうむらん 我かれを目に見るべし 彼は街衢の泥のごとくに踏つけらるべし
11 The day to build your walls! That day—removed is the limit.
汝の垣を築く日いたらん 其日には法度遠く徙るべし
12 That day—even to you it comes in, From Asshur and the cities of the fortress, And from the fortress even to the river, And from sea to sea, and mountain to mountain.
その日にはアッスリヤよりエジプトの邑々より人々汝に來りエジプトより河まで海より海まで山より山までの人々汝に來り就ん
13 And the land has been for a desolation, Because of its inhabitants, Because of the fruit of their doings.
その日地はその居民の故によりて荒はつべし 是その行爲の果報なり
14 Rule Your people with Your rod, The flock of Your inheritance, Dwelling alone [in] a forest in the midst of Carmel, They enjoy Bashan and Gilead as in days of old.
汝の杖をもて汝の民即ち獨離れてカルメルの中の林にをる汝の産業の羊を牧養ひ之をして古昔の日のごとくバシヤンおよびギレアデにおいて草を食はしめたまへ
15 “According to the days of your coming forth out of the land of Egypt, I show it wonderful things.”
汝がエジプトの國より出來し日のごとく我ふしぎなる事等を彼にしめさん
16 Nations see, and they are ashamed of all their might, They lay a hand on the mouth, their ears are deaf.
國々の民見てその一切の能力を恥ぢその手を口にあてん その耳は聾となるべし
17 They lick dust as a serpent, as fearful things of earth, They tremble from their enclosures, They are afraid of our God YHWH, Indeed, they are afraid of You.
彼らは蛇のごとくに塵を餂め地に匍ふ者の如くにその城より振ひて出で戰慄て我らの神ヱホバに詣り汝のために懼れん
18 Who [is] a God like You? Taking away iniquity, And passing by the transgression of the remnant of His inheritance, He has not retained His anger forever, Because He delights [in] kindness.
何の神か汝に如ん 汝は罪を赦しその産業の遺餘者の愆を見過したまふなり 神は憐憫を悦ぶが故にその震怒を永く保ちたまはず
19 He turns back, He pities us, He subdues our iniquities, And You cast all their sins into the depths of the sea.
ふたたび顧みて我らを憐み我らの愆を踏つけ我らの諸の罪を海の底に投しづめたまはん
20 You give truth to Jacob, kindness to Abraham, That You have sworn to our fathers, from the days of antiquity!
汝古昔の日われらの先祖に誓ひたりしその眞實をヤコブに賜ひ憐憫をアブラハムに賜はん
