Ezekiel 14
1 One day some of the elders of Israel came to me and sat down in front of me.
爰にイスラエルの長老の中の人々我にきたりて吾前に坐しけるに
2 Then Yahweh gave me this message:
ヱホバの言われに臨みて言ふ
3 “You human, these men want to [IDM] worship idols, and they are allowing idols to induce them to sin [IDM]. So I will certainly [RHQ] answer them if they ask me for advice.
人の子よこの人々はその偶像を心の中に立しめ罪に陷いるるところの障礙をその面の前に置なり我あに是等の者の求を容べけんや
4 So say this to them: ‘This is what Yahweh the Lord says: When any Israeli person wants to worship idols which will induce him to sin, and he goes to a [to get advice], I, Yahweh, will give him the answer that he deserves to receive because he worship idols.
然ば汝かれらに告げて言ふべし主ヱホバかくいひたまふ凡そイスラエルの家の人のその心の中に偶像を立しめその面のまへに罪に陷いるるところの障礙を置きて預言者に來る者には我ヱホバその偶像の多衆にしたがひて應をなすべし
5 [I will do that] in order that the Israeli people, who have abandoned me in order to worship their idols, will sincerely [IDM] worship me again.’
斯して我イスラエルの家の人の心を執へん是かれら皆その偶像のために我を離れたればなり
6 Therefore, say to the Israeli people, ‘This is what Yahweh the Lord says: (Repent/Stop sinning)! Stop worshiping your idols, and stop all your [other] detestable behavior!’
是故にイスラエルの家に言ふべし主ヱホバかくいひたまふ汝等悔い汝らの偶像を棄てはなるべし汝等面を回らしてその諸の憎むべき物を離れよ
7 When any of [you] Israeli people or any foreigner living among you turns away from me and starts worshiping idols [IDM] that induce him to sin, and then goes to a prophet to find out what I want him to do, I myself will answer him.
凡てイスラエルの家およびイスラエルに寓るところの外國人若われを離れてその偶像を心の中に立しめ其面の前に罪に陷るるところの障礙をおきて預言者に來りその心のままに我に求むる時は我ヱホバわが心のままにこれに應ふべし
8 I will show that I detest him, and [what happens to] him to be a warning [to others], and cause him to be someone whom people despise. I will cause him to no longer be allowed to associate with my people. Then you will know that I, Yahweh, [have the power to do what I say that I will do].
即ち我面をその人にむけこれを滅して兆象となし諺語となし之をわが民の中より絕さるべし汝等これによりて我がヱホバなるを知るにいたらん
9 And if a prophet is deceived and gives a false prophecy, [even though] I [allowed him to] give that message, I will get rid of him and remove him from among my Israeli people.
もし預言者欺かれて言を出すことあらば我ヱホバその預言者を欺けるなり我かれの上にわが手を伸べ吾民イスラエルの中より彼を絕さらん
10 Both the prophet and the one who asks him for advice will be guilty, [and I will punish both of them].
彼等その罪を負ふべしその預言者の罪はかの問求むる者の罪のごとくなるべし
11 Then you Israeli people will no longer abandon me, and you will no longer become unacceptable to me because of your sins. You will be my people, and I will be your God. [That is what I], Yahweh the Lord, say.”
是イスラエルの民をして重ねて我を離れて迷はざらしめ重ねてその諸の愆に汚れざらしめんため又かれらの吾民となり我の彼らの神とならんためなり主ヱホバこれをいふ
12 Yahweh gave me another message. [He said],
ヱホバの言また我にのぞみて言ふ
13 “You human, [the people of some] country sin against me by abandoning me, and I punish [IDM] them by cutting off their food supply and by sending a famine, with the result that people and animals die,
人の子よ國もし悖れる事をおこなひて我に罪を犯すことあり我手をその上に伸て其杖とたのむところのパンを打碎き饑饉を之におくりて人と畜とをその中より絕ことある時には
14 even if Noah, Daniel, and Job were there, they would save only themselves because of their being righteous. [That is what I], Yahweh the Lord, declare.
其處にかのノア、ダニエル、ヨブの三人あるも只其義によりて己の生命を救ふことをうるのみなり主ヱホバこれをいふ
15 Or, if I send wild animals throughout the country, and they attack and [many of] [HYP] the people, with the result that travel in that country becomes very dangerous and no one travels through that country,
我もし惡き獸を國に行めぐらしめて之を子なき處となし荒野となして其獸のために其處を通る者なきに至らん時には
16 [as surely] as I am alive, even if those three men were in that country, they could not save [even their own] sons or [from being killed]. Only those [three] would (be saved/remain alive), and the country would become desolate. [That is what I], Yahweh the Lord, declare.
主ヱホバ言ふ我は活く此三人そこにをるもその子女を救ふことをえず只その身を救ふことを得るのみ國は荒野となるべし
17 Or, if I bring enemy soldiers [MTY] to attack that country, and they kill [MTY] people and animals throughout that country with their swords,
又は我劍を國に臨ませて劍よ國を行めぐるべしと言ひ人と畜をそこより絕さらん時には
18 as surely as I am alive, even if those three men were in that country, they would not be able to save even their own sons or [from being killed]. They would save only themselves. That is what I, Yahweh the Lord, declare.
主ヱホバいふ我は活く此三人そこにをるもその子女をすくふことをえず只その身をすくふことを得るのみ
19 Or, if I send a plague into that land and cause the people and the animals to [from the plague] because I am very angry with those people,
又われ疫病を國におくり血をもてわが怒をその上にそそぎ人と畜をそこより絕さらん時には
20 [as surely] as I am alive, even if Noah, Daniel and Job were in that country, they would not [be able to] save even their sons and daughters. They would save only themselves because of their being righteous. [That is what I], Yahweh the Lord, declare.
主ヱホバいふ我は活くノア、ダニエル、ヨブそこにをるもその子女を救ふことをえず只その義によりて己の生命を救ふことを得るのみ
21 So [now] this is what [I, ], Yahweh the Lord, say: I will cause four things to happen to [the people of] Jerusalem to punish them very severely. [Some] people and animals will be killed by swords, [some will die from] famines, [others will be attacked and killed by] wild animals, and [others will die in] plagues.
主ヱホバかくいひたまふ然ばわが四箇の嚴しき罰すなはち劍と饑饉と惡き獸と疫病をヱルサレムにおくりて人と畜をそこより絕さらんとする時は如何にぞや
22 But some [of your people] will remain alive, [both adults] and children. They will come to you, [Ezekiel, in Babylon]. And when you see [disgusting] behavior and actions, you will realize that I had good reasons for causing [the people of] Jerusalem to experience those many great disasters [DOU] that I have sent to them.
其中に逃れて遺るところの男子女子あり彼等携へ去らるべし彼ら出ゆきて汝等の所にいたらん汝らかれらの行爲と擧動を見ば吾がヱルサレムに災をくだせし事につきて心をやすむるにいたるべし
23 When you see those things that they do, you will know that there were very good reasons [LIT] for me to do everything that I caused to happen to them. [That is what I], Yahweh the Lord, declare.”
汝ら彼らの行爲と擧動を見ばこれがためにその心をやすむるにいたりわがこれに爲たる事は皆故なくして爲たるにあらざるなるをしるにいたらん主ヱホバこれを言ふ
