< Jeremiah 18 >

1 The word which it came to Jeremiah from with Yahweh saying.
ヱホバよりヱレミヤにのぞめる言いふ
2 Arise and you will go down [the] house of the potter and there I will cause to hear you words my.
汝起て陶人の屋にくだれ我かしこに於てわが言を汝に聞しめんと
3 And I went down [the] house of the potter (and there! he *Q(K)*) [was] doing work on the stones.
われすなはち陶人の屋にくだり視るに轆轤をもて物をつくりをりしが
4 And it was spoiled the vessel which he [was] making with the clay in [the] hand of the potter and he would return and he made it a vessel another just as it was pleasing in [the] eyes of the potter to do.
その泥をもて造れるところの器陶人の手のうちに傷ねたれば彼その心のままに之をもて別の器をつくれり
5 And it came [the] word of Yahweh to me saying.
時にヱホバの言我にのぞみていふ
6 ¿ Like the potter this not am I able to do to you O house of Israel [the] utterance of Yahweh here! like the clay in [the] hand of the potter so you [are] in hand my O house of Israel.
ヱホバいふイスラエルの家よこの陶人のなすが如くわれ汝になすことをえざるかイスラエルの家よ陶人の手に泥のあるごとく汝らはわが手にあり
7 A moment I will speak on a nation and on a kingdom to pluck up and to pull down and to destroy.
われ急に民あるひは國をぬくべし敗るべし滅すべしといふことあらんに
8 And it will turn away the nation that from evil its which I had spoken on it and I will relent on the calamity which I had planned to do to it.
もし我いひしところの國その惡を離れなば我之に災を降さんとおもひしことを悔ん
9 And a moment I will speak on a nation and on a kingdom to build up and to plant.
我また急に民あるいは國を立べし植べしといふことあらんに
10 And it will do (the evil *Q(K)*) in view my to not to listen to voice my and I will relent on the good which I had said to do good to it.
もし其國わが目に惡く見ゆるところの事を行ひわが聲に遵はずば我これに福祉を錫へんといひしことを悔ん
11 And therefore say please to everyone of Judah and to [the] inhabitants of Jerusalem saying thus he says Yahweh here! I [am] about to fashion on you calamity and [am] about to plan on you a plan turn back please everyone from way his wicked and make good ways your and deeds your.
汝いまユダの人々とヱルサレムに住る者にいへヱホバかくいへり視よ我汝らに災をくださんと思ひめぐらし汝らをはかる計策を設く故に汝らおのおの其惡き途を離れ其途と行をあらためよと
12 And they say despairing for after own plans our we will walk and everyone [the] stubbornness of heart his wicked we will act.
しかるに彼らいふ是は徒然なりわれらは自己の圖維ところにしたがひ各自その惡き心の剛愎なるを行はんと
13 Therefore thus he says Yahweh ask please among the nations who? has he heard like these [things] a horrible [thing] she has done exceedingly [the] virgin of Israel.
この故にヱホバかくいひたまふ汝ら異國のうちに問へ斯の如きことを聞し者ありやイスラエルの處女はいと驚くべきことをなせり
14 ¿ Does it leave from [the] rock of [the] field [the] snow of Lebanon or? are they plucked up waters strange cool flowing.
レバノンの雪豈野の磐を離れんや遠方より流くる冷なる水豈涸かんや
15 For they have forgotten me people my to falsehood they make smoke and they have caused to stumble them in ways their paths of antiquity to walk paths a way not built up.
しかるに我民は我をわすれて虛き物に香を焚り是等の物彼らをその途すなはち古き途に蹶かせまた徑すなはち備なき道に行しめ
16 To make land their into a waste (whistling of *Q(K)*) perpetuity every [one who] passes by at it he will be appalled and he may wag with head his.
その地を荒して恒に人の笑とならしめん凡て其處を過る者は驚きてその首を搖らん
17 Like a wind of [the] east I will scatter them before an enemy back and not face I will show them on [the] day of disaster their.
われ東風のごとくに彼らをその敵の前に散さん其滅亡の日にはわれ背を彼らに向て面をむけじ
18 And people said come so let us plan on Jeremiah plans for not it will be lost instruction from [the] priest and counsel from [the] wise and word from [the] prophet come and let us attack him with the tongue and may not we pay attention to all words his.
彼らいふ去來われら計策を設てヱレミヤをはからんそれ祭司には律法あり智慧ある者には謀畧あり預言者には言ありて失ざるべし去來われら舌をもて彼を撃ちその諸の言を聽ことをせざらんと
19 Be attentive! O Yahweh to me and listen to [the] voice of opponents my.
ヱホバよ我にききたまへ又我と爭ふ者の聲をききたまへ
20 ¿ Will it be repaid in place of good evil for they have dug a pit for self my remember - standing my before you to speak on them good to turn back rage your from them.
惡をもて善に報ゆべきものならんや彼らはわが生命をとらん爲に坑を掘れりわが汝の前に立て彼らを善く言ひ汝の憤怒を止めんとせしを憶えたまへ
21 Therefore give children their to famine and pour them over [the] hands of [the] sword so they may become wives their childless and widows and men their may they be [the] slain of death young men their [those] struck down of [the] sword in battle.
さればかれらの子女を饑饉にあたへ彼らを劍の刃にわたしたまへ其妻は子を失ひ且寡となり其男は死をもて亡されその少者は劍をもて戰に殺されよかし
22 May it be heard a cry of distress from houses their if you will bring on them a marauding band suddenly for they have dug (a pit *Q(K)*) to capture me and snares they have hidden for feet my.
汝突然に敵をかれらに臨ませたまふ時號呼をその家の内より聞えしめよそは彼ら坑を掘りて我を執へんとしまた機檻を置てわが足を執へんとすればなり
23 And you O Yahweh you know all plan their on me for death may not you atone on iniquity their and sin their from to before you may not you wipe out (and let them be *Q(K)*) overthrown before you in [the] time of anger your do with them.
ヱホバよ汝はかれらが我を殺さんとするすべての謀畧を知りたまふ其惡を赦すことなく其罪を汝の前より抹去りたまふなかれ彼らを汝の前に仆れしめよ汝の怒りたまふ時にかく彼らになしたまへ
