Jeremiah 6
1 "Flee for safety, you people of Benjamin, out of the midst of Jerusalem, and blow the trumpet in Tekoa, and raise up a signal on Beth Haccherem; for evil looks forth from the north, and a great destruction.
ベニヤミンの子等よヱルサレムの中より逃れテコアに箛をふきベテハケレムに合圖の火をあげよそは北より災と大なる敗壞のぞめばなり
2 The comely and delicate one, the daughter of Zion, will I cut off.
われ美しき窈窕なるシオンの女を滅さん
3 Shepherds with their flocks shall come to her; they shall pitch their tents against her all around; they shall feed everyone in his place."
牧者は其群を牽て此處にきたりその周圍に天幕をはらん群はおのおのその處にて草を食はん
4 "Prepare war against her; arise, and let us go up at noon. Woe to us. For the day declines, for the shadows of the evening are stretched out.
汝ら戰端を開きて之を攻べし起よわれら日午にのぼらん嗚呼惜かな日ははや昃き夕日の影長くなれり
5 Arise, and let us go up by night, and let us destroy her palaces."
起よわれら夜の間にのぼりてその諸の殿舍を毀たん
6 For the LORD of hosts said, "Cut down trees, and cast up a mound against Jerusalem. She is the city to be punished; she is full of oppression in the midst of her.
萬軍のヱホバかくいひたまへり汝ら樹をきりヱルサレムに向ひて壘を築けこれは罰すべき邑なりその中には唯暴逆のみあり
7 As a well casts forth its waters, so she casts forth her wickedness: violence and destruction is heard in her; before me continually is sickness and wounds.
源の水をいだすがごとく彼その惡を流すその中に暴逆と威虐きこゆ我前に憂と傷たえず
8 Be instructed, Jerusalem, lest my soul be alienated from you; lest I make you a desolation, a land not inhabited."
ヱルサレムよ汝訓戒をうけよ然らざれば我心汝をはなれ汝を荒蕪となし住む人なき地となさん
9 Thus says the LORD of hosts, "They shall thoroughly glean the remnant of Israel like a vine. Pass your hand again as a grape gatherer into the baskets."
萬軍のヱホバかくいひたまふ彼らは葡萄の遺餘を摘みとるごとくイスラエルの遺れる者を摘とらん汝葡萄を摘取者のごとく屢手を筐に入るべし
10 To whom shall I speak and testify, that they may hear? Look, their ear is uncircumcised, and they can't listen. Look, the word of the LORD has become a reproach to them. They have no delight in it.
我たれに語り誰を警めてきかしめんや視よその耳は割禮をうけざるによりて聽えず彼らはヱホバの言を嘲りこれを悦ばず
11 Therefore I am full of the wrath of the LORD. I am weary with holding in. "Pour it out on the children in the street, and on the assembly of young men together; for even the husband with the wife shall be taken, the aged with him who is full of days.
ヱホバの怒わが身に充つわれ忍ぶに倦むこれを衢街にある童子と集れる年少者とに泄すべし夫も婦も老たる者も年邁し者も執へらるるにいたらん
12 Their houses shall be turned to others, their fields and their wives together; for I will stretch out my hand on the inhabitants of the land," says the LORD.
その家と田地と妻はともに佗人にわたらん其はわれ手を擧てこの地に住る者を撃ばなりとヱホバいひたまふ
13 "For from their least even to their greatest, everyone is given to covetousness; and from the prophet even to the cohen, everyone deals falsely.
夫彼らは少さき者より大なる者にいたるまで皆貪婪者なり又預言者より祭司にいたるまで皆詭詐をなす者なればなり
14 They have healed also the hurt of my people superficially, saying, 'Peace, peace.' when there is no peace.
かれら淺く我民の女の傷を醫し平康からざる時に平康平康といへり
15 Were they ashamed when they had committed abomination? No, they were not at all ashamed, neither could they blush. Therefore they shall fall among those who fall; at the time that I visit them, they shall be cast down," says the LORD.
彼らは憎むべき事を爲て恥辱をうくれども毫も恥ずまた愧を知らずこの故に彼らは傾仆るる者と偕にたふれん我來るとき彼ら躓かんとヱホバいひたまふ
16 Thus says the LORD, "Stand in the ways and see, and ask for the old paths, 'Where is the good way?' and walk in it, and you will find rest for your souls." But they said, "We will not walk in it."
ヱホバかくいひたまふ汝ら途に立て見古き徑に就て何か善道なるを尋ねて其途に行めさらば汝らの靈魂安を得ん然ど彼らこたへて我儕はそれに行まじといふ
17 "I set watchmen over you, saying, 'Listen to the sound of the trumpet.'" But they said, "We will not listen."
我また汝らの上に守望者をたて箛の聲をきけといへり然ど彼等こたへて我儕は聞じといふ
18 "Therefore hear, you nations, and know, congregation, what will happen to them.
故に萬國の民よきけ會衆よかれらの遇ところを知れ
19 Hear, earth. 'Look, I will bring disaster on this people, even the fruit of their thoughts, because they have not listened to my words; and as for my law, they have rejected it.
地よきけわれ災をこの民にくださんこは彼らの思の結ぶ果なりかれら我言とわが律法をきかずして之を棄るによる
20 To what purpose comes there to me frankincense from Sheba, and the sweet cane from a far country? Your burnt offerings are not acceptable, nor your sacrifices pleasing to me.'
シバより我許に乳香きたり遠き國より菖蒲きたるは何のためぞやわれは汝らの燔祭をよろこばず汝らの犠牲を甘しとせず
21 Therefore thus says the LORD, 'Look, I will lay stumbling blocks before this people. The fathers and the sons together shall stumble against them. The neighbor and his friend shall perish.'
故にヱホバかくいひたまふみよ我この民の前に躓礙をおく父と子とそれに蹶き隣人とその友偕に滅ぶべし
22 "Thus says the LORD, 'Look, a people comes from the north country. A great nation shall be stirred up from the uttermost parts of the earth.
ヱホバかくいひたまふみよ民北の國よりきたる大なる民地の極より起る
23 They take hold of bow and spear. They are cruel, and have no mercy. Their voice roars like the sea, and they ride on horses, everyone set in array, as a man to the battle, against you, daughter of Zion.'"
彼らは弓と槍をとる殘忍にして憫なしその聲は海の如く鳴るシオンの女よかれらは馬に乗り軍人のごとく身をよろひて汝を攻めん
24 "We have heard its report; our hands become feeble: anguish has taken hold of us, and pains as of a woman in labor.
我儕その風聲をききたれば我儕の手弱り子をうむ婦のごとき苦痛と劬勞われらに迫る
25 Do not go forth into the field, nor walk by the way; for the sword of the enemy and terror, are on every side."
汝ら田地に出る勿れまた路に行むなかれ敵の劍と畏怖四方にあればなり
26 "Daughter of my people, clothe yourself with sackcloth, and wallow in ashes. Mourn, as for an only son, most bitter lamentation; for the destroyer shall suddenly come on us."
我民の女よ麻衣を身にまとひ灰のうちにまろび獨子を喪ひしごとくに哀みていたく哭けそは毀滅者突然に我らに來るべければなり
27 "I have made you a tester of metals and a fortress among my people; that you may know and try their way."
われ汝を民のうちに立て金を驗る者のごとくなし又城のごとくなすこは汝をしてその途を知しめまた試みしめんためなり
28 "They are all grievous rebels, going about with slanders; they are bronze and iron: they all of them deal corruptly.
彼らは皆いたく悖れる者なり歩行て人を謗る者なり彼らは銅のごとく鐵のごとし皆邪なる者なり
29 The bellows blow fiercely; the lead is consumed of the fire: in vain do they go on refining; for the wicked are not plucked away.
韛は火に焚け鉛はつき鎔匠はいたづらに鎔す惡者いまだ除かれざればなり
30 Men will call them 'rejected silver,' because the LORD has rejected them."
ヱホバ彼らを棄たまふによりて彼等は棄られたる銀と呼ばれん
