Isaiah 8
1 And Yahweh said unto me: Take thee a large tablet, —and write thereon in plain characters, To Maher-shalal-hash-baz. ["Speed-spoil-hurry-prey".]
ヱホバ我にいひたまひけるは一の大なる牌をとり そのうへに平常の文字にてマヘル シャラル ハシ バズと録せ
2 That I may take in attestation, faithful witnesses, —even Uriah the priest, and Zechariah son of Jeberechiah.
われ信實の證者なる祭司ウリヤおよびエベレキヤの子ゼカリヤをもてその證をなさしむ
3 Then approached I unto the prophetess, and she conceived and bare a son, —and Yahweh said unto me, Call his name Maher-shalal-hash-baz.
われ預言者の妻にちかづきしとき彼はらみて子をうみければ ヱホバ我にいひたまはく その名をマヘル シャラル ハシ バズと稱へよ
4 For before the boy shall have knowledge to cry, My father! and, My mother! the riches of Damascus and the spoil of Samaria shall be carried away before the king of Assyria.
そはこの子いまだ我が父わが母とよぶことを知らざるうちに ダマスコの富とサマリヤの財寳はうばはれてアツスリヤ王のまへに到るべければなり
5 And again Yahweh spake unto me yet further saying:
ヱホバまた重て我につげたまへり云く
6 Because this people hath refused the waters of Shiloah which flow softly, —and are rejoicing with Rezin and the son of Remaliah,
この民はゆるやかに流るるシロアの水をすててレヂンとレマリヤの子とをよろこぶ
7 now therefore, lo! the Lord is about to bring up against them the waters, strong and many, of the River ["Euphrates"], even the king of Assyria and all his glory, —and he shall rise over all his channels, and flow over all his banks;
此によりて主はいきほひ猛くみなぎりわたる大河の水をかれらのうへに堰入たまはん 是はアツスリヤ王とそのもろもろの威勢とにして 百の支流にはびこり もろもろの岸をこえ
8 and roll on throughout Judah—overflow and pass along, till unto the neck, he shall reach, —and it shall be, that, the stretching out of his wings, shall fill the breadth of thy land, O Immanuel!
ユダにながれいり 溢れひろごりてその項にまで及ばん インマヌエルよ そののぶる翼はあまねくなんぢの地にみちわたらん
9 Rage, O ye peoples, —and be overthrown, And give ear, all ye distant parts of the earth, —Gird yourselves and be overthrown, Gird yourselves, and be overthrown:
もろもろの民よ さばめき騒げなんぢら摧かるべし 遠きくにぐにの者よ きけ 腰におびせよ 汝等くだかるべし 腰に帶せよ なんぢら摧かるべし
10 Determine a plan, —and it shall be frustrated, —Speak a word, and it shall not stand, For With-us-is-GOD!
なんぢら互にはかれ つひに徒勞ならん なんぢら言をいだせ遂におこなはれじ そは神われらとともに在せばなり
11 For, thus, spake Yahweh unto me like a firm grasp of the hand, —when he admonished me, not to walk in the way of this people, saying:
ヱホバつよき手をもて此如われに示し この民の路にあゆまざらんことを我にさとして言給はく
12 Ye shall not say—A confederacy! of everything of which this people may say. A confederacy! And their fear, shall ye not fear or regard as awful:
此民のすべて叛逆ととなふるところの者をなんぢら叛逆ととなふるなかれ 彼等のおそるるところを汝等おそるるなかれ慴くなかれ
13 Yahweh of hosts, him, shall ye hallow, —And let, him, be your fear, and let, him inspire you with awe;
なんぢらはただ萬軍のヱホバを聖としてこれを畏みこれを恐るべし
14 So shall he become a hallowed asylum, —But a stone to strike against, and a rock to stumble over unto both houses of Israel A trap and a snare to the dweller in Jerusalem;
然らばヱホバはきよき避所となりたまはん 然どイスラエルの兩の家には躓く石となり妨ぐる磐とならん ヱルサレムの民には網罟となり機濫とならん
15 And many, shall stumble among them, —and fall and be torn, and snared, and captured.
おほくの人々これによりて蹶きかつ仆れやぶれ 網せられまた捕へらるべし
16 Bind thou up the testimony, —Seal the instruction amongst my disciples.
證詞をつかね律法をわが弟子のうちに封べし
17 I will therefore long for Yahweh, Who is hiding his face from the house of Jacob, —And will wait, for him.
いま面をおほひてヤコブの家をかへりみ給はずといへども 我そのヱホバを待そのヱホバを望みまつらん
18 Lo! I and the children whom Yahweh hath given me, are for signs and for wonders in Israel, —from Yahweh of hosts, who is making his habitation in Mount Zion.
視よわれとヱホバが我にたまひたる子輩とはイスラエルのうちの豫兆なり奇しき標なり 此はシオンの山にいます萬軍のヱホバの與へたまふ所なり
19 But, when they say unto you—Seek ye unto the necromancers and unto the wizards, who chirp, and who mutter, Should not a people seek, unto its God? In behalf of the living, [should it seek] unto the dead?
もし人なんぢらにつげて巫女および魔術者のさえづるがごとく細語がごとき者にもとめよといはば民はおのれの神にもとむべきにあらずや いかで活者のために死者にもとむることを爲んといへ
20 To the law and to the testimony! If they speak not according to this word, [It is], because they have no dawning day.
ただ律法と證詞とを求むべし 彼等のいふところ此言にかなはずば晨光あらじ
21 Therefore shall they pass through it hard pressed and hungry, —And it shall be when they hunger, then will they rage and revile their king and their god and turn their faces upwards;
かれら國をへあるきて苦みうゑん その饑るとき怒をはなち己が王おのが神をさして誼ひかつその面をうへに向ん
22 And unto the land, shall they look hard, And lo! distress and darkness, the gloom of anguish, driven away!
また地をみれば艱難と幽暗とくるしみの闇とあり かれらは昏黑におひやられん
