< Hosea 5 >
1 Hear ye this—O priests, and attend, O house of Israel, and ye, House of the King, give ear, for, to you, pertaineth the sentence, —for, a snare, have ye been to Mizpah, and a net spread on Tabor.
祭司等よこれを聴けイスラエルの家よ耳をかたむけよ 王のいへよ之にこころを注よ さばきは汝等にのぞまん そは我らはミズパに設くる羂タボルに張れる網のごとくなればなり
2 And, a slaughter, have apostates deeply designed, —though, I, was a rebuker to them all.
悖逆者はふかく罪にしづみたり我かれらをことごとく懲しめん
3 I, have known Ephraim, and, Israel, hath not been hidden from me, —for, now, hast thou committed unchastity, O Ephraim, Israel, hath made himself impure.
我はエフライムを知る イスラエルはわれに隠るるところ無し エフライムよなんぢ今すでに淫行をなせりイスラエルはすでに汚れたり
4 Their doings, will not suffer, them to return unto their God, —for, the spirit of unchastity, is within them, and, Yahweh, have they not known.
かれらの行爲かれらをしてその神に歸ること能はざらしむ そは淫行の霊その衷にありてヱホバを知ることなければなり
5 Therefore will the Excellency of Israel, answer, to his face, —and, Israel and Ephraim, shall stumble in their iniquity, even Judah with them, hath stumbled.
イスラエルの驕傲はその面にむかひて證をなしその罪によりてイスラエルとエフライムは仆れユダもまた之とともにたふれん
6 With their flocks and with their herds, will they go to seek Yahweh, but shall not find him; he hath withdrawn himself from them.
かれらは羊のむれ牛の群をたづさへ往てヱホバを尋ね求めん然どあふことあらじヱホバ既にかれらより離れ給ひたればなり
7 With Yahweh, have they dealt treacherously, for, to alien children, have they given birth, —now, a new moon, shall devour them, with their portions.
かれらヱホバにむかひ貞操を守らずして他人の子を産り新月かれらとその産業とをともに滅さん
8 Blow ye a horn in Gibeah, a trumpet in Ramah, —sound an alarm at Beth-aven, behind thee, O Benjamin!
なんぢらギベアにて角をふきラマにてラッパを吹ならしベテアベンにて呼はりて言へベニヤミンよなんぢの後にありと
9 Ephraim, shall become, a desolation, in the day of rebuke: Throughout the tribes of Israel, have I hide known what is sure.
罰せらるるの日にエフライムは荒廃れん我イスラエルの支派の中にかならず有るべきことを示せり
10 The rulers of Judah have become as they who remove a land-mark. Upon them, will I pour out, like water, my wrath.
ユダの牧伯等は境界をうつすもののごとくなれり我わが震怒を水のごとくに彼らのうへに斟がん
11 Oppressed, is Ephraim, crushed in judgment, —because he hath, wilfully, walked after falsehood.
エフライムは甘んじて人のさだめたるところに從ひあゆむがゆゑに鞫をうけて虐げられ圧られん
12 But, I, was like a moth, to Ephraim, —and like rotten wood to the house of Judah.
われエフライムには蠧のごとくユダの家には腐朽のごとし
13 When Ephraim, saw, his injury, and Judah his wound, then went Ephraim unto Assyria, and [Judah] sent unto a hostile king, —yet, he, cannot heal you, nor will the wound, remove from you.
エフライムおのれに病あるを見ユダおのれに傷あるをみたり斯てエフライムはアツスリヤに往きヤレブ王に人をつかはしたれど彼はなんぢらを醫すことをえず又なんぢらの傷をのぞきさることを得ざるべし
14 For, I, will be as a lion unto Ephraim, and as a young lion to the house of Judah, —I, I, will tear in pieces, and depart, I will carry off, and none be able to rescue.
われエフライムには獅子のごとくユダの家にはわかき獅子のごとし我しも我は抓劈てさり掠めゆけども救ふ者なかるべし
15 I will depart, will return unto my place! till what time they acknowledge their guilt, and seek my face, —In their trouble, will they make for me diligent search.
我ふたたびわが處にかへりゆき彼らがその罪をくいてひたずらわが面をたづね求むるまで其處にをらん彼らは艱難によりて我をたづねもとむることをせん
