< Jeremiah 35 >
1 The word that came to Jeremiah from Yahweh in the days of Jehoiakim son of Josiah king of Judah, saying,
ユダの王ヨシヤの子ヱホヤキムの時ヱレミヤにのぞみしヱホバの言いふ
2 “Go to the family of the Rekabites and speak with them. Then bring them to my house, into one of the rooms there, and give them wine to drink.”
汝レカブ人の家に往て彼らとかたり彼らをヱホバの室の一房に携きたりて酒をのませよと
3 So I took Jaazaniah son of Jeremiah son of Habazziniah and his brothers, all his sons, and all the family of the Rekabites.
是に於てわれハバジニヤの子なるヱレミヤの子ヤザニヤとその兄弟とその諸子およびレカブ人の全家を取り
4 I took them to the house of Yahweh, into the rooms of the sons of Hanan son of Igdaliah, the man of God. These rooms were beside the room of the leaders, which was above the room of Maaseiah son of Shallum, the gatekeeper.
これをヱホバの室にあるハナンの諸子の房につれきたれりハナンはイグダリヤの子にして神の人なり其房は牧伯等の房の次にして門を守るシヤレムの子マアセヤの房のうへに在り
5 Then I placed bowls and cups full of wine in front of the Rekabites and said to them, “Drink some wine.”
我すなはちレカブ人の家の諸子の前に酒を滿したる壺と杯を置き彼らに告て汝ら酒を飮めといひければ
6 But they said, “We will not drink any wine, for our ancestor, Jonadab son of Rekab, commanded us, 'Do not drink any wine, neither you nor your descendants, forever.
彼らこたへけるは我儕は酒をのまず蓋レカブの子なる我らの先祖ヨナダブ我らに命じて汝等と汝らの子孫はいつまでも酒をのむべからず
7 Also, do not build any houses, sow any seeds, or plant any vineyards; this is not for you. For you must live in tents all your days, so that you might live many days in the land where you are staying as foreigners.'
また汝ら屋を建ず種をまかず葡萄園を植ざれ亦これを有べからず汝らの生存ふるあひだ幕屋にをれ然らば汝らが寄寓ところの地に於て汝らの生命長からんと云たればなり
8 We have obeyed the voice of Jonadab son of Rekab, our ancestor, in all that he commanded us, to never drink wine all of our days, we, our wives, our sons, and our daughters.
斯我らはレカブの子なるわれらの先祖ヨナダブの凡て命ぜし言に遵ひて我儕とわれらの妻と子女は生存ふるあひだ酒を飮ず
9 We will never build houses to live in, and there will be no vineyard, field, or seed in our possession.
我らは住べき屋を建てず葡萄園も田野も種も有ずして
10 We have lived in tents and we have obeyed and done all that Jonadab our ancestor commanded us.
幕屋にをりすべて我儕の先祖ヨナダブが我らに命ぜしごとく行へり
11 But when Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon attacked the land, we said, 'Come, we must go to Jerusalem to escape from the Chaldean and Aramean armies.' So we are living in Jerusalem.”
然どバビロンの王ネブカデネザルがこの地に上り來りしとき我ら云けるは我らカルデヤ人の軍勢とスリア人の軍勢を畏るれば去來ヱルサレムにゆかんとすなはち我らはヱルサレムに住へり
12 Then the word of Yahweh came to Jeremiah, saying,
時にヱホバの言ヱレミヤにのぞみていふ
13 “Yahweh of hosts, God of Israel, says this, 'Go and say to the men of Judah and the inhabitants of Jerusalem, “Will you not receive correction and listen to my words? —this is Yahweh's declaration.
萬軍のヱホバ、イスラエルの神かくいふ汝ゆきてユダの人々とヱルサレムに住る者とに告よヱホバいひたまふ汝らは我言を聽て敎を受ざるか
14 The words of Jonadab son of Rekab that he gave to his sons as a command, not to drink any wine, have been observed to this very day. They have obeyed their ancestor's command. But as for me, I myself have been making persistent proclamations to you, but you do not listen to me.
レカブの子ヨナダブがその子孫に酒をのむべからずと命ぜし言は行はる彼らは今日に至るまで酒をのまず其先祖の命令に遵ふなり然るに汝らは吾汝らに語り頻りに語れども我にきかざるなり
15 I sent out to you all my servants, the prophets. I was persistent in sending them to say, 'Let each person turn from his wicked way and do good deeds; let no one walk any longer after other gods and worship them. Instead, come back to the land that I gave to you and your ancestors.' Yet you will not listen to me or pay attention to me.
我また我僕なる預言者たちを汝らに遣し頻りにこれを遣していはせけるは汝らいまおのおの其惡き道を離れて歸り汝らの行をあらためよ他の神に從ひて之に奉ふる勿れ然ば汝らはわが汝らと汝らの先祖に與へたるこの地に住ことをえんと然ど汝らは耳を傾けず我にきかざりき
16 For the descendants of Jonadab son of Rekab have observed the commands of their ancestor that he gave them, but this people refuses to listen to me.”'
レカブの子ヨナダブの子孫はその先祖が彼らに命ぜしところの命令に遵ふなり然ど此民は我に聽ず
17 So Yahweh, God of hosts and God of Israel, says this, 'Look, I am bringing upon Judah and on everyone living in Jerusalem, all the disasters I pronounced against them because I spoke to them, but they did not listen; I called to them, but they did not answer.'”
この故に萬軍の神ヱホバ、イスラエルの神かくいふ視よわれユダとヱルサレムに住る者とに我彼らにつきていひし所の災を降さん我かれらに語れども聽ずかれらを召ども應へざればなり
18 Jeremiah said to the family of the Rekabites, “Yahweh of hosts, God of Israel, says this: You have listened to the commands of Jonadab your ancestor and have kept them all—you have obeyed all that he commanded you to do—
茲にヱレミヤ、レカブ人の家にいひけるは萬軍のヱホバ、イスラエルの神かくいひたまふ汝らはその先祖ヨナダブの命に遵ひその凡の誡を守り彼が汝らに命ぜしことを行ふ
19 so Yahweh of hosts, God of Israel, says this, 'There will always be someone descended from Jonadab son of Rekab to serve me.'”
是によりて萬軍のヱホバ、イスラエルの神かくいひたまふレカブの子ヨナダブには我前に立つ人いつまでも缺ることあらじ
