Isaiah 22
1 The oracle on the valley of vision, —What aileth thee, then, That thou art wholly gone up to the house-tops?
異象の谷にかかる重負のよげん 曰く／なんぢら何故にみな屋蓋にのぼれるか
2 With tumults, art thou filled, thou citadel in commotion! city exultant! Thy slain, are Not the slain, of the sword, Nor the dead in battle.
汝はさわがしく喧すしき邑ほこりたのしむ邑 なんぢのうちの殺されたるものは劍をもて殺されしにあらず 亦たたかひにて死しにもあらず
3 All thy ruler, having fled, together, by the bow, are taken captive: All found in thee have been taken captive, together, Far away, have they fled.
なんぢの有司はみな共にのがれゆきしかど弓士にいましめられ 汝の民はとほくにげゆきしかど見出されて皆ともに縛められたり
4 For this cause, I said—Look away from me, Bitterly, will I weep, —Do not press to comfort me, For the ruin of the daughter of my people.
この故にわれいふ回顧てわれを見るなかれ 我いたく哭かなしまん わが民のむすめの害はれたるによりて我をなぐさめんと勉むるなかれ
5 For a day of confusion and downtreading and perplexity, pertaineth to My Lord, Yahweh of hosts, in the valley of vision, an undermining of walls, and a crying for help to the mountain.
そは主萬軍のヱホバ異象のたにに騒亂ふみにじり惶惑の日をきたらせたまふ 垣はくづれ號呼のこゑは山々にきこゆ
6 Yea, Elam, beareth the quiver, With trains of men, [and] horsemen, —And, Kir, hath uncovered the shield.
エラムは箙をおひたり 歩兵と騎兵とありキルは盾をあらはせり
7 And it hath come to pass that the choice of thy vales, are full of chariots; Yea, the horsemen, have set themselves, in array, at the gate.
かくて戰車はなんぢの美しき谷にみち 騎兵はその門にむかひてつらなれり
8 Then removed he the veil of Judah, —Yea thou didst peer on that day, into the armoury of the forest-house;
ユダの庇護はのぞかる その日なんぢは林のいへの武具をあふぎのぞめり
9 And the breaches in the city of David, ye beheld for they were many, —So ye gathered together the waters of the lower pool;
なんぢらダビデのまちの壞おほきを見る なんぢら下のいけの水をあつめ
10 And the houses of Jerusalem, ye counted, —And brake down the houses, to fortify the wall;
またヱルサレムの家をかぞへ且その家をこぼちて垣をかたくし
11 And a reservoir, ye made between the two walls, for the waters of the ancient pool, —And had no regard unto him that made it, Nor unto him that formed it long ago, had ye respect.
一つの水坑をかきとかきとの間につくりて古池の水をひけりされどこの事をなし給へるものを仰望まず この事をむかしより營みたまへる者をかへりみざりき
12 And, when My Lord Yahweh of hosts called in that day, —for weeping, and for lamentation, and for shaving bare and for girding with sackcloth,
その日主萬軍のヱホバ命じて哭かなしみ首をかぶろにし麁服をまとへと仰せたまひしかど
13 Then lo! joy and rejoicing, killing oxen and slaughtering sheep, eating flesh and drinking wine, —Let us eat and drink, For to-morrow, we may die!
なんぢらは喜びたのしみ牛をほふり羊をころし肉をくらひ酒をのみていふ 我儕くらひ且のむべし明日はしぬべければなりと
14 Therefore did Yahweh reveal himself in mine ears. Surely there shall be no propitiatory-covering put over this iniquity for you until ye die, Saith My Lord Yahweh of hosts.
萬軍のヱホバ默示をわが耳にきかしめたまはく まことにこの邪曲はなんぢらが死にいたるまで除き清めらるるを得ずと これ主萬軍のヱホバのみことばなり
15 Thus, said My Lord Yahweh, of hosts, Come go in unto this steward, Unto Shebna, who is over the house:
主ばんぐんのヱホバ如此のたまふ ゆけ宮ををさめ庫をつかさどるセブナにゆきていへ
16 What doest thou here? And whom hast thou here? That thou hast hewn for thyself here a sepulchre, —As one hewing on high his sepulchre, Cutting out in the cliff a habitation for himself?
なんぢここに何のかかはりありや また茲にいかなる人のありとして己がために墓をほりしや 彼はたかきところに墓をほり磐をうがちて己がために住所をつくれり
17 Lo! Yahweh, is about to hurl thee, with a hurl, O mighty man, —And roll thee with a roll;
視よヱホバはつよき人のなげうつ如くに汝をなげうち給はん
18 He will, toss, thee, with a toss, like a ball, into a country wide on both hands, —There, shalt thou die, And there shall thy glorious chariots be the contempt of the house of thy lord.
なんぢを包みかためふりまはして闊かなる地に球のごとくなげいだしたまはん 主人のいへの恥となるものよ汝そこにて死そのえいぐわの車もそこにあらん
19 Thus will I thrust thee out from thine office, —And from thy station, shall one tear thee down.
我なんぢをその職よりおひその位よりひきおとさん
20 And it shall come to pass in that day, That I will call for my servant, for Eliakim son of Hilkiah,
その日われわが僕ヒルキヤの子エリアキムを召て
21 And will clothe him with thy tunic And with thy girdle, will I gird him, And thine authority, will I deliver into his hand, —So shall he become a father To the inhabitant of Jerusalem and To the house of Judah.
なんぢの衣をきせ汝の帶をもて固め なんぢの政權をその手にゆだぬべし 斯て彼ヱルサレムの民とユダの家とに父とならん
22 And I will lay the key of the house of David upon his shoulder, —And he shall open and none shall shut, And shut and none shall open;
我またダビデのいへの鑰をその肩におかん 彼あくればとづるものなく彼とづればあくるものなし
23 And I will fasten him as a peg in a sure place, —And he shall become a throne of glory, to the house of his father;
我かれをたてて堅處にうちし釘のごとくすべし 而してかれはその父の家のさかえの位とならん
24 And they shall hang upon him all the weight of his father’s house—The offshoots and the side-twigs—All the small vessels, Both the cups and all the jugs
その父の家のもろもろの榮は彼がうへに懸る その子その孫およびすべての器のちひさきもの皿より瓶子にいたるまでも然らざるなし
25 In that day, —Declareth Yahweh of hosts Shall the peg, give way, that was fastened in a sure place, —Yea it shall be cut off and fall And the burden that was upon it shall perish, For, Yahweh, hath spoken!
萬軍のヱホバのたまはくその日かたき處にうちたる釘はぬけいで斫れておちん そのうへにかかれる負もまた絶るべし こはヱホバ語り給へるなり
