Lamentations 1
1 How the city sits solitary, that was full of people. She has become as a widow, who was great among the nations. She who was a princess among the provinces has become a forced laborer.
ああ哀しいかな古昔は人のみちみちたりし此都邑 いまは凄しき様にて坐し 寡婦のごとくになれり 嗟もろもろの民の中にて大いなりし者 もろもろの州の中に女王たりし者 いまはかへつて貢をいるる者となりぬ
2 She weeps bitterly in the night, and her tears are on her cheeks; among all her lovers she has none to comfort her. All her friends have dealt treacherously with her; they have become her enemies.
彼よもすがら痛く泣きかなしみて涙面にながる その戀人の中にはこれを慰むる者ひとりだに無く その朋これに背きてその仇となれり
3 Judah has gone into exile because of affliction and harsh servitude; she dwells among the nations, she finds no rest: all her persecutors overtook her in the midst of her distress.
ユダは艱難の故によりまた大いなる苦役のゆゑによりて擄はれゆき もろもろの國に住ひて安息を得ず これを追ふものみな狭隘にてこれに追しきぬ
4 The roads to Zion mourn, because no one comes to the solemn assembly; all her gates are desolate, her priests groan: her virgins are afflicted, and she herself is in bitterness.
シオンの道路は節會の上り來る者なきがために哀しみ その門はことごとく荒れ その祭司は歎き その處女は憂へ シオンもまた自から苦しむ
5 Her adversaries have become the head, her enemies prosper; for Jehovah has afflicted her for the multitude of her transgressions: her young children have gone into captivity before the adversary.
その仇は首となり その敵は享ゆ その愆の多きによりてヱホバこれをなやませたまへるなり そのわかき子等は擄はれて仇の前にゆけり
6 All majesty has departed from the daughter of Zion: her leaders have become like deer that find no pasture, they fled exhausted before the pursuer.
シオンの女よりはその榮華ことごとく離れされり またその牧伯等は草を得ざる鹿のごとくに成り おのれを追ふものの前に力つかれて歩みゆけり
7 Jerusalem remembers in the days of her affliction and wandering all her precious things that were from the days of old: when her people fell into the hand of the adversary, and no one helped her. The adversaries saw her, they mocked at her desolations.
ヱルサレムはその艱難と窘迫の時むかしの代にありしもろもろの樂しき物を思ひ出づ その民仇の手におちいり誰もこれを助くるものなき時 仇人これを見てその荒はてたるを笑ふ
8 Jerusalem has grievously sinned; therefore she has become as an unclean thing; all who honored her despise her, because they have seen her nakedness: yes, she groans, and turns away.
ヱルサレムははなはだしく罪ををかしたれば汚穢たる者のごとくになれり 前にこれを尊とびたる者もその裸體を見しによりて皆これをいやしむ 是もまたみづから嗟き身をそむけて退けり
9 Her filthiness was in her skirts; she did not remember her latter end; therefore her fall was astonishing; she has no comforter. "Look, Jehovah, on my affliction, for the enemy has magnified himself."
その汚穢これが裾にあり 彼その終局をおもはざりき 此故に驚ろくまでに零落たり 一人の慰むる者だに無し ヱホバよわが艱難をかへりみたまへ 敵は勝ほこれり
10 The adversary has spread out his hand on all her precious things: for she has seen that the nations have entered into her sanctuary, concerning whom you commanded that they should not enter into your assembly.
敵すでに手を伸てその財寳をことごとく奪ひたり 汝さきに異邦人等はなんぢの公會にいるべからずと命じおきたまひしに 彼らが聖所を侵しいるをシオンは見たり
11 All her people sigh, they seek bread; they have given their precious things for food to refresh the soul. "Look, Jehovah, and see, for I am despised."
その民はみな哀きて食物をもとめ その生命を支へんがために財寳を出して食にかへたり ヱホバよ見そなはし我のいやしめらるるを顧みたまへ
12 Is it nothing to you, all you who pass by? Look, and see if there is any sorrow like my sorrow, which is brought on me, with which Jehovah has afflicted me in the day of his fierce anger.
すべて行路人よ なんぢら何ともおもはざるか ヱホバその烈しき震怒の日に我をなやましてわれに降したまへるこの憂苦にひとしき憂苦また世にあるべきや考がへ見よ
13 From on high he has sent fire into my bones, and it overcame them. He has spread a net for my feet, he has turned me back. He has made me desolate and faint all the day.
ヱホバ上より火をくだしわが骨にいれて之を克服せしめ 網を張りわが足をとらへて我を後にむかしめ 我をして終日心さびしくかつ疾わづらはしめたまふ
14 My transgressions are bound into a yoke; by his hand they are fastened together, they are set upon my neck; he has made my strength to fail. Jehovah has delivered me into their hands, against whom I am not able to stand.
わが愆尤の軛は主の御手にて結ばれ諸の愆あひ纒はりてわが項にのれり 是はわが力をしておとろへしむ 主われを敵たりがたき者の手にわたしたまへり
15 Jehovah has rejected all my mighty men in my midst; he has called a solemn assembly against me to crush my young men. Jehovah has trodden as in a winepress the virgin daughter of Judah.
主われの中なる勇士をことごとく除き 節會をもよほして我を攻め わが少き人を打ほろぼしたまへり 主酒榨をふむがごとくにユダの處女をふみたまへり
16 For these things I weep; my eyes flow with tears; because the comforter who should refresh my soul is far from me. My children are desolate, because the enemy has prevailed.
これがために我なげく わが目やわが目には水ながる わがたましひを活すべき慰さむるものわれに遠ければなり わが子等は敵の勝るによりて滅びうせにき
17 Zion spreads forth her hands; there is none to comfort her. Jehovah has commanded concerning Jacob, that those who are around him should be his adversaries. Jerusalem is among them as an unclean thing.
シオンは手をのぶれども誰もこれを慰むる者なし ヤコブにつきてはヱホバ命をくだしてその周圍の民をこれが敵とならしめたまふ ヱルサレムは彼らの中にありて汚れたる者のごとくなりぬ
18 Jehovah is righteous, for I have rebelled against his commandment. Please listen all you people, and see my suffering. My virgins and my young men have gone into captivity.
ヱホバは正し 我その命令にそむきたるなり 一切の民よわれに聽け わが憂苦をかへりみよ わが處女もわかき男も俘囚て往り
19 I called for my lovers, but they deceived me. My priests and my elders perished in the city, while they searched for food to refresh their souls.
われわが戀人を呼たれども彼らはわれを欺むけり わが祭司およびわが長老は生命を繋がんとて食物を求むる間に都邑の中にて氣息たえたり
20 See, Jehovah, for I am in distress; my stomach churns; my heart is turned within me; for I have grievously rebelled. Outside the sword bereaves, in the house it is like death.
ヱホバよかへりみたまへ 我はなやみてをり わが膓わきかへり わが心わが衷に顛倒す 我甚しく悖りたればなり 外には劍ありてわが子を殺し 内には死のごとき者あり
21 They have heard that I groan; there is none to comfort me. All my enemies have heard of my trouble; they are glad that you have done it. Bring the day that you have proclaimed, so that they shall end up like me.
かれらはわが嗟歎をきけり 我をなぐさむるもの一人だに无し わが敵みなわが艱難をききおよび 汝のこれを爲たまひしを喜こべり 汝はさきに告しらせしその日を來らせたまはん 而して彼らもつひに我ごとくに成るべし
22 Let all their wickedness come before you. Do to them, as you have done to me for all my transgressions. For my groans are many, and my heart is faint.
ねがはくは彼等が與へし艱難をことごとくなんぢの御前にあらはし 前にわがもろもろの罪愆のために我におこなひし如く彼らにも行ひたまへ わが嗟歎は多くわが心はうれひかなしむなり
