< Zechariah 6 >

1 Again I lifted up my eyes, and saw, and look, four chariots came out from between two mountains; and the mountains were mountains of bronze.
我また目を擧て觀しに四輌の車二の山の間より出きたれりその山は銅の山なり
2 In the first chariot were red horses; in the second chariot black horses;
第一の車には赤馬を着け第二の車には黒馬を着け
3 in the third chariot white horses; and in the fourth chariot dappled horses, all of them powerful.
第三の車には白馬を着け第四の車には白點なる強馬を着く
4 Then I asked the angel who talked with me, "What are these, my lord?"
我すなはち我に語ふ天の使に問て我主よ是等は何なるやと言けるに
5 The angel answered me, "These are the four winds of the sky, which go forth from standing before the Lord of all the earth.
天の使こたへて我に言ふ是は四の天風にして全地の主の前より罷り出たる者なり
6 The one with the black horses goes out toward the north country; and the white went out after them; and the dappled went forth toward the south country."
黒馬は北の地をさして進み行き白馬その後に從ふ又白點馬は南の地をさして進みゆき
7 The strong went out, and sought to go that they might walk back and forth through the earth: and he said, "Go around and through the earth." So they walked back and forth through the earth.
強馬は進み出て地を徧く行めぐらんとす彼汝ら往き地を徧くめぐれと言たまひければ則ち地を行めぐれり
8 Then he called to me, and spoke to me, saying, "Look, those who go toward the north country have quieted my spirit in the north country."
彼われを呼て我に告て言ふ此北の地に往る者等は北の地にて我靈を安んず
9 The word of YHWH came to me, saying,
ヱホバの言われに臨めり曰く
10 "Take of them of the captivity, even of Heldai, of Tobijah, and of Jedaiah; and come the same day, and go into the house of Josiah the son of Zephaniah, where they have come from Babylon.
汝かの囚虜人の中の者ヘルダイ、トビヤおよびヱダヤより取ことをせよ即ちその日に汝かれらがバビロンより歸りて宿りをるゼパニヤの子ヨシヤの家に到り
11 Take silver and gold, and make a crown, and set it on the head of Joshua the son of Jehozadak, the high priest;
金銀を取て冠冕を造りヨザダクの子なる祭司の長ヨシユアの首にこれを冠らせ
12 and speak to him, saying, 'Thus says YHWH of hosts, "Look, the man whose name is the Branch: and he shall grow up out of his place; and he shall build the temple of YHWH;
彼に語りて言べし萬軍のヱホバ斯言たまふ視よ人ありその名を枝といふ彼おのれの處より生いでてヱホバの宮を建ん
13 even he shall build the temple of YHWH; and he shall bear the glory, and shall sit and rule on his throne; and he shall be a priest on his throne; and the counsel of peace shall be between them both.
即ち彼者ヱホバの宮を建て尊榮を帶びその位に坐して政事を施しその位にありて祭司とならん此二の者の間に平和の計議あるべし
14 And the crown shall be to Heldai, and to Tobijah, and to Jedaiah, and to Josiah the son of Zephaniah, for a memorial in the temple of YHWH.
偖またその冠冕はヘレム、トビヤ、ユダヤおよびゼパニヤの子ヘンの記念のために之をヱホバの殿に納むべし
15 Those who are far off shall come and build in the temple of YHWH; and you shall know that YHWH of hosts has sent me to you. This will happen, if you will diligently obey the voice of YHWH your God."'"
遠き處の者等來りてヱホバの殿を建ん而して汝らは萬軍のヱホバの我を遣したまひしなるを知にいたらん汝らもし汝らの神ヱホバの聲に聽したがはば是のごとくなるべし
