< Ezekiel 17 >

1 And it came [the] word of Yahweh to me saying.
爰にヱホバの言我にのぞみて言ふ
2 O son of humankind ask a riddle a riddle and speak a parable a parable concerning [the] house of Israel.
人の子よ汝イスラエルの家に謎をかけ譬言を語りて
3 And you will say thus he says - [the] Lord Yahweh the eagle great great of wings long of pinion full plumage which [belonged] to it variegated plumage it came to Lebanon and it took [the] treetop of the cedar.
言べし主ヱホバかく言たまふ大なる翼長き羽ありて種々の色の毛の滿たる大鷲レバノンに來りて香柏の梢を採り
4 [the] top Shoots its it plucked off and it brought it to a land of merchant[s] in a city of traders it placed it.
其芽の巓を摘みカナンの地にこれを持きたりて商人の邑に置きけるが
5 And it took one of [the] seed of the land and it put it in a field of seed take [it] at waters many a willow it placed it.
又その地の種をとりて之を種田に播けりすなはち之を水の多き處にもちゆきて柳のごとくにこれを樹しに
6 And it sprouted and it became a vine spreading low of stature to turn branches its to it and roots its under it they were and it became a vine and it produced shoots and it sent out boughs.
成長ちて丈卑き垂さがりたる葡萄樹となり其枝は鷲にむかひその根は鷲の下にあり遂に葡萄樹となりて芽をふき葉を出す
7 And it was an eagle one great great of wings and great of plumage and there! the vine this it bent roots its on it and branches its it sent out to it to water it from [the] beds of planting its.
此に又大なる翼多くの羽ある一箇の大鷲ありしがその葡萄樹根をこれにむかひて張り枝をこれにむかひて伸べ之をしてその植りたる地の外より水を灌がしめんとす
8 To a field good to waters many it [was] planted to produce branch[es] and to bear fruit to become a vine of splendor.
抑是を善き圃に多くの水の旁に植たるは根を張り實をむすびて盛なる葡萄樹とならしめんためなりき
9 Say thus he says [the] Lord Yahweh will it prosper? ¿ not roots its will it pull up and fruit its - will it strip off? and it will wither all [the] fresh [things] of growth its it will wither and not by an arm great and by a people numerous to lift up it from roots its.
なんぢ主ヱホバかく言ふといふべし是旺盛になるや鷲その根を拔きその果を絕ちて之を枯しめざらんや其芽の若葉は皆枯ん之を根より擧るには強き腕と多くの人を用ふるにおよばざるなり
10 And there! [it is] planted ¿ will it prosper ¿ not when touches it [the] wind of the east will it wither completely on [the] beds of growth its it will wither.
是は樹られたれども旺盛にならんや東風これに當らば枯果ざらんや是その生たるところの地に枯べし
11 And it came [the] word of Yahweh to me saying.
ヱホバの言また我にのぞみて言ふ
12 Say please to [the] house of rebellion ¿ not do you know what? [are] these [things] say there! he went [the] king of Babylon Jerusalem and he took king its and princes its and he brought them to himself Babylon towards.
背ける家に言ふべし汝等此の何たるを知ざるかと又言へ視よバビロンの王ヱルサレムに來りその王とその牧伯等を執へてこれをバビロンに曳ゆけり
13 And he took one of [the] offspring of royalty and he made with him a covenant and he made go him in an oath and [the] leaders of the land he took.
彼また王の族の一人を取てこれと契約を立て誓言をなさしめ又國の強き者等を執へゆけり
14 To be a kingdom lowly to not to exalt itself to keep covenant his to continue it.
是この國を卑くして自ら立つことを得ざらしめその人をして契約を守りてこれを堅うせしめんがためなりき
15 And he rebelled against him by sending messengers his Egypt to give to him horses and a people numerous ¿ will he prosper ¿ will he escape the [one who] does these [things] and will he break? a covenant and will he escape?
然るに彼これに背きて使者をエジプトに遣し馬と多くの人を己におくらしめんとせり彼旺盛にならんや是を爲る者逃るることをえんや彼その契約をやぶりたり爭で逃るることを得んや
16 [by] [the] life Of me [the] utterance of [the] Lord Yahweh if not in [the] place of the king who made king him whom he despised oath his and whom he broke covenant his with him in [the] midst of Babylon he will die.
主ヱホバいひたまふ我は活く必ず彼は己を王となしたる彼王の處に偕にをりてバビロンに死べし彼その王の誓言を輕んじ其契約を破りたるなり
17 And not with an army large and with a company great he will do with him Pharaoh in battle when pour out a mound and when build a siege-wall to cut off lives many.
夫壘を築き雲梯を建てて衆多の人を殺さんとする時にはパロ大なる軍勢と衆多の人をもて彼のために戰爭をなさじ
18 And he despised [the] oath by breaking [the] covenant and there! he had given hand his and all these [things] he did not he will escape.
彼は誓言を輕んじて契約を破る彼手を與へて却て此等の事をなしたれば逃るることを得ざるべし
19 Therefore thus he says [the] Lord Yahweh [by] [the] life of me if not oath my which he despised and covenant my which he broke and I will requite it on own head his.
故に主ヱホバかく言たまふ我は活く彼が我の誓言を輕んじ我の契約をやぶりたる事を必ずかれの首にむくいん
20 And I will spread over him net my and he will be caught in hunting net my and I will bring him Babylon towards and I will enter into judgment with him there unfaithfulness his which he has acted unfaithfully against me.
我わが網をかれの上にうちかけ彼をわが羅にとらへてバビロンに曳ゆき彼が我にむかひて爲しところの叛逆につきて彼を鞫くべし
21 And all (fugitives his *Q(K)*) among all troops his by the sword they will fall and the [ones who] survive to every wind they will be scattered and you will know that I Yahweh I have spoken.
彼の諸の軍隊の逃脱者は皆刀に仆れ生殘れる者は八方に散さるべし汝等は我ヱホバがこれを言しなるを知にいたらん
22 Thus he says [the] Lord Yahweh and I will take I from [the] treetop of the cedar high and I will place [it] from [the] top of young shoots its a tender [shoot] I will pluck off and I will plant [it] I on a mountain high and lofty.
主ヱホバかく言たまふ我高き香柏の梢の一を取てこれを樹ゑその芽の巓より若芽を摘みとりて之を高き勝れたる山に樹べし
23 On [the] mountain of [the] height of Israel I will plant it and it will bear branch[es] and it will produce fruit and it will become a cedar majestic and they will dwell under it every bird every wing in [the] shadow of branches its they will dwell.
イスラエルの高山に我これを植ん是は枝を生じ果をむすびて榮華なる香柏となり諸の類の鳥皆その下に棲ひその枝の蔭に住はん
24 And they will know all [the] trees of the field that I Yahweh I bring low - a tree tall I raise up a tree low I make dry a tree moist and I make sprout a tree dry I Yahweh I have spoken and I will act.
是に於て野の樹みな我ヱホバが高き樹を卑くし卑き樹を高くし綠なる樹を枯しめ枯木を綠ならしめしことを知ん我ヱホバこれを言ひ之を爲なり
