Ezekiel 24
1 The word of Yahweh came to me in the ninth year, in the tenth month, and on the tenth day of the month, saying,
九年の十月十日にヱホバの言我にのぞみて言ふ
2 “Son of man, write for yourself the name of this day, this exact day, for this exact day the king of Babylon has besieged Jerusalem.
人の子よ汝此日すなはち今日の名を書せバビロンの王今日ヱルサレムを攻をるなり
3 So speak a proverb against this rebellious house, a parable. Say to them, 'The Lord Yahweh says this: Place the cooking pot. Place it and pour water into it.
汝背ける家に譬喩をかたりて之に言へ主ヱホバかく言たまふ釜を居ゑ居ゑてこれに水を斟いれ
4 Gather pieces of food within it, every good piece—the thigh and shoulder— and fill it with the best bones.
其肉の凡て佳き所を集めて股と肩とを之に入れ佳き骨をこれに充し
5 Take the best of the flock and pile up the bones under it. Bring it to a boil and cook the bones in it.
羊の選擇者を取れ亦薪一束を取り下に入れて骨を煮釜を善く煮たて亦その中の骨を煮よ
6 Therefore the Lord Yahweh says this: Woe to the city of blood, a cooking pot that has rust in it and that rust will not come out of it. Take piece after piece from it, but do not cast lots for it.
是故に主ヱホバかく言ふ禍なるかな血の流るる邑銹のつきたる釜 その銹これを離れざるなり肉を一箇一箇に取いだせ之がために籤を掣べからず
7 For her blood is in the midst of her. She has set it on the smooth rock; she has not poured it out on the ground to cover it with dust,
彼の血はその中にあり彼乾ける磐の上にこれを置りこれを土にそそぎて塵に覆はれしめず
8 so it brings fury up to exact vengeance. I placed her blood on the smooth rock so it could not be covered.
我怒を來らせ仇を復さんがためにその血を乾ける磐の上に置て塵に覆はれざらしめたり
9 Therefore, the Lord Yahweh says this: Woe to the city of blood. I will also enlarge the pile of wood.
是故に主ヱホバかく言ふ禍なるかな血の流るる邑我またその薪の束を大にすべし
10 Stack up the wood and kindle the fire. Cook the meat well and mix in the spices and let the bones be charred.
薪を積かさね火を燃し肉を善く煮てこれを煮つくしその骨をも燒しむべし
11 Then set the pot on its coals empty, in order to heat and scorch its bronze, so its uncleanness within it will be melted, its corrosion consumed.'
而して釜を空にして炭火の上に置きその銅をして熱くなりて燒しめ其汚穢をして中に鎔しめその銹を去しむべし
12 She has become weary because of toil, but her corrosion has not gone out of her by the fire.
旣に手を盡したれどもその大なる銹さらざればその銹を火に投棄べし
13 Your shameful behavior is in your uncleanness. Because I tried to cleanse you but still you would not be cleansed from your uncleanness, you will not be cleansed anymore until I have satisfied my fury upon you.
汝の汚穢の中に淫行あり我汝を淨めんとしたれども汝淨まらざりしに因てわが怒を汝に洩しつくすまでは汝その汚穢をはなれて淨まることあらじ
14 I, Yahweh, have declared it, and I will do it. I will not relent nor will I rest from it. As your ways were, and as your activities, they will judge you!—this is the Lord Yahweh's declaration.”
我ヱホバこれを言り是至る我これを爲べし止ず惜まず悔ざるなり汝の道にしたがひ汝の行爲にしたがひて彼ら汝を鞫かん主ヱホバこれを言ふ
15 Then the word of Yahweh came to me, saying,
ヱホバの言われに臨みて言ふ
16 “Son of man! Behold, I am taking the desire of your eyes from you with a plague, but you must not mourn nor weep, and your tears must not flow.
人の子よ我頓死をもて汝の目の喜ぶ者を取去ん汝哀かず泣ず涙をながすべからず
17 You must groan silently. Do not conduct a funeral for the dead. Tie your turban on you and place your sandals on your feet, but do not veil your facial hair or eat the bread of men who mourn for having lost their wives.”
聲をたてずして哀け死人のために哀哭をなすなかれ冠物を戴き足に鞋を穿べし鬚を掩ふなかれ人のおくれる食物を食ふべからず
18 So I spoke to the people in the morning, and my wife died in the evening. In the morning I did what I had been commanded to do.
朝に我人々に語りしが夕にわが妻死ねり明朝におよびて我命ぜられしごとくなせり
19 The people asked me, “Will you not tell us what these things mean, the things that you are doing?”
茲に人々我に言けるは此汝がなすところの事は何の意なるや我らに告ざるや
20 So I said to them, “The word of Yahweh came to me, saying,
我かれらに言けるはヱホバの言我にのぞみて言ふ
21 'Say to the house of Israel, the Lord Yahweh says this: Behold! I will desecrate my sanctuary—the pride of your power, the delight of your eyes, and the yearning of your soul, and your sons and your daughters whom you left behind will fall by the sword.
イスラエルの家にいふべし主ヱホバかく言ふ視よ我汝らの勢力の榮汝らの目の喜愛汝らの心の望なるわが聖所を汚さん汝らが遺すところの子女等は劍に仆れん
22 Then you will do exactly as I have done: you will not veil your facial hair, nor eat the bread of mourning men!
汝らもわが爲るごとくなし鬚を覆はず人のおくれる食物を食はず
23 Instead, your turbans will be on your heads, and your sandals on your feet; you will not mourn nor weep, for you will melt away in your iniquities, and each man will groan for his brother.
首に冠物を戴き足に履を穿き哀かず泣ずその罪の中に痩衰へて互に呻かん
24 So Ezekiel will be a sign for you, as everything that he has done you will do when this comes. Then you will know that I am the Lord Yahweh!'”
斯エゼキエル汝らに兆とならん彼がなしたるごとく汝ら爲ん是事の至らん時に汝ら我の主ヱホバなるを知べし
25 “But you, son of man, on the day that I capture their temple, which is their joy, their pride, and what they see and desire—and when I take away their sons and daughters—
人の子よわが彼らの力かれらの樂むところの榮その目の喜愛その心の望その子女を取去る日
26 on that day, a refugee will come to you to give you the news!
その日に逃亡者汝の許に來り汝の耳に告ることあらん
27 On that day your mouth will be opened up to that refugee and you will speak—you will no longer be silent. You will be a sign for them so that they will know that I am Yahweh.”
その日に汝逃亡者にむかひて口を啓き語りて再び默せざらん斯汝かれらに兆となるべし彼らは遂に我のヱホバなるを知ん
