< Jeremiah 33 >

1 And the word of Yahweh came unto Jeremiah, the second time, when he was yet imprisoned in the guard-court, saying:
ヱレミヤ尚獄の庭に禁錮られてをる時ヱホバの言ふたたび彼に臨みていふ
2 Thus, saith Yahweh, who doeth it, —Yahweh, who fashioneth it to establish it, Yahweh, is his name:
事をおこなふヱホバ事をなして之を成就るヱホバ其名をヱホバと名る者かく言ふ
3 Call unto me that I may answer thee, —and tell thee things great and inaccessible, which thou hast not known.
汝我に龢求めよわれ汝に應へん又汝が知ざる大なる事と秘密たる事とを汝に示さん
4 For, Thus, saith Yahweh God of Israel, Concerning the houses of this city, and concerning the houses of the kings of Judah, —which are thrown down against the earthworks and against the sword:
イスラエルの神ヱホバ壘と劍によりて毀たれたる此邑の室とユダの王の室につきてかくいひ給ふ
5 In entering to fight with the Chaldeans, it is to fill them with the dead bodies of men, whom I have smitten in mine anger and in mine indignation, —and because of whom I have hidden my face from this city, —by reason of all their wickedness.
彼らカルデヤ人と戰はんとて來る是には我震怒と憤恨をもて殺すところの人々の屍體充るにいたらん我かれらの諸の惡のためにわが面をこの邑に蔽ひかくせり
6 Behold me! laying upon her a bandage of healing, so will I heal them, —And will reveal to them abundance of prosperity and truth;
視よわれ卷布と良藥をこれに持きたりて人々を醫し平康と眞實の豐厚なるをこれに示さん
7 And I will bring back Them of the captivity of Judah, and Them of the captivity of Israel, —And I will build them, as at the first;
我ユダの俘囚人とイスラエルの俘囚人を歸らしめ彼らを建て從前のごとくになすべし
8 And I will purify them, from all their iniquity wherewith they have sinned against me, —And I will grant pardon for all their iniquities Wherewith they have sinned against me, and Wherewith they have transgressed against me;
われ彼らが我にむかひて犯せし一切の罪を潔め彼らが我にむかひて犯し且行ひし一切の罪を赦さん
9 So shall she become to me—A name of joy, A praise and An adorning, To all the nations of the earth, —Who will hear all the good which I am doing them, And will dread and be deeply moved over all the good and over all the prosperity which I am causing her.
此邑は地のもろもろの民の中において我がために欣喜の名となり頌美となり榮耀となるべし彼等はわが此民にほどこすところの諸の恩惠を聞ん而してわがこの邑にほどこすところの諸の恩惠と諸の福祿のために發振へ且身を動搖さん
10 Thus, saith Yahweh—Again, shall be heard in this place, as to which ye are saying, Deserted, it is without man or beast, In the cities of Judah and in the streets of Jerusalem, Which are desolate without man or inhabitant or beast
ヱホバかくいひ給へり汝らが荒れて人もなく畜もなしといひしこの處即ち荒れて人もなく住む者もなく畜もなきユダの邑とヱルサレムの街に
11 The voice of joy, and the voice of gladness The voice of the bridegroom and the voice of the bride, The voice of them who are saying, Praise ye Yahweh of hosts, For good is Yahweh For age-abiding is his lovingkindness, The voice of them who are bringing a thank-offering into the house of Yahweh, —For I will bring back the captives of the land, as at the first, Saith Yahweh.
再び欣喜の聲 歡樂の聲 新娶者の聲 新婦の聲および萬軍のヱホバをあがめよヱホバは善にしてその矜恤は窮なしといひて其感謝の祭物をヱホバの室に携ふる者の聲聞ゆべし蓋われこの地の俘囚人を返らしめて初のごとくになすべければなりヱホバ之をいひたまふ
12 Thus, saith Yahweh of hosts, Again, shall there be in this place—Which is deserted without man or even beast—And all the cities thereof, —The home of shepherds, causing flocks to lie down.
萬軍のヱホバかくいひたまふ荒れて人もなく畜もなきこの處と其すべての邑々に再び牧者のその群を伏しむる牧場あるにいたらん
13 In the cities of the hill country, In the cities of the lowland, and In the cities of the South, and In the land of Benjamin, and In the places round about Jerusalem, and In the cities of Judah, Again shall the flock pass over the hands of the numberer, Saith Yahweh.
山の邑と平地の邑と南の方の邑とベニヤミンの地とヱルサレムの四周とユダの邑において群ふたたびその之を核ふる者の手の下を過らんとヱホバいひたまふ
14 Lo! days are coming, Declareth Yahweh, —when I will establish my good word, which I have spoken—As to the house of Israel And concerning the house of Judah:
ヱホバ言たまはく視よ我イスラエルの家とユダの家に語りし善言を成就ぐる日きたらん
15 In those days and at that time, will I cause to bud unto David A Bud of righteousness, —And he shall execute justice and righteousness in the land:
その日その時にいたらばわれダビデの爲に一の義き枝を生ぜしめん彼は公道と公義を地に行ふべし
16 In those days, Judah shall be saved, and, Jerusalem abide, securely, —And, this, is that which shall be proclaimed to her—Yahweh, our righteousness!
その日ユダは救をえヱルサレムは安らかに居らんその名はヱホバ我儕の義と稱へらるべし
17 For, Thus, saith Yahweh, —There shall not be wanting to David—A man to sit upon the throne of the house of Israel;
ヱホバかくいひたまふイスラエルの家の位に坐する人ダビデに缺ることなかるべし
18 Nor to the priests the Levites, shall there be wanting—A man, before me, To offer an ascending-sacrifice, or To make a perfume with a gift, or To offer a [peace-] offering, all the days!
また我前に燔祭をささげ素祭を燃し恒に犠牲を献ぐる人レビ人なる祭司に絕ざるべし
19 And the word of Yahweh came unto Jeremiah saying:
ヱホバのことばヱレミヤに臨みていふ
20 Thus, saith Yahweh, If ye can break, My covenant of the day, and My covenant of the night, That there be not day and night in their season,
ヱホバかくいふ汝らもし我晝につきての契約と我夜につきての契約を破りてその時々に晝も夜もなからしむることをえば
21 My covenant also, may be broken With David my servant, that he shall not have a son, to reign upon his throne, —And with the Levites the priests, mine attendants:
僕ダビデに吾が立し契約もまた破れその子はかれの位に坐して王となることをえざらんまたわが我に事ふるレビ人なる祭司に立し契約も破れん
22 As, the host of the heavens, cannot be recorded, Nor the sand of the sea, be measured, So, will I multiply, The seed of David my servant, And the Levites who attend upon me.
天の星は數へられず濱の沙は量られずわれその如く我僕ダビデの裔と我に事ふるレビ人を增ん
23 And the word of Yahweh came unto Jeremiah, saying:
ヱホバの言またヱレミヤに臨みていふ
24 Hast thou not observed what, this people, have spoken saying, The two families which Yahweh did choose, he hath even cast them off? And so, my people, they despise, as though they could not again become a nation in their sight!
汝この民の語りてヱホバはその選みし二の族を棄たりといふを聞ざるか彼らはかく我民を藐じてその眼にこれを國と見なさざるなり
25 Thus, saith Yahweh, If my covenant of day and night, the ordinances of the heavens and the earth, I did not appoint,
ヱホバかくいひ給ふもしわれ晝と夜とについての契約を立ずまた天地の律法を定めずば
26 The seed of Jacob also and of David my servant, might I cast off so as not to take of his seed as rulers unto the seed of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob, —For I will bring back them of their captivity, and will have compassion upon them.
われヤコブと我僕ダビデとの裔をすてて再びかれの裔の中よりアブラハム、イサク、ヤコブの裔を治むる者を取ざるべし我その俘囚し者を返らしめこれを恤れむべし
