< Isaiah 29 >
1 Woe to Ariel, to Ariel, the city where David dwelt! add ye year to year; let them kill sacrifices.
ああアリエルよアリエルよ ああダビデの營をかまへたる邑よ としに年をくはへ節會まはりきたらば
2 Yet I will distress Ariel, and there shall be heaviness and sorrow: and it shall be to me as Ariel.
われアリエルをなやまし之にかなしみと歎息とあらしめん 彼をアリエルのごとき者となすべし
3 And I will encamp against thee all around, and will lay siege against thee with a mound, and I will raise forts against thee.
われ汝のまはりに營をかまへ保砦をきづきて汝をかこみ櫓をたててなんぢを攻べし
4 And thou shalt be brought down, and shalt speak out of the ground, and thy speech shall be low out of the dust, and thy voice shall be, like a medium, out of the ground, and thy speech shall whisper out of the dust.
かくてなんぢは卑くせられ 地にふしてものいひ塵のなかより低聲をいだしてかたらん 汝のこゑは巫女のこゑのごとく地よりいで汝のことばは塵のなかより囀づるがごとし
5 Moreover the multitude of thy strangers shall be like small dust, and the multitude of the terrible ones shall be as chaff that passeth away: yea, it shall be at an instant suddenly.
然どなんぢのあだの群衆はこまやかなる塵の如く あらぶるものの群衆はふきさらるる粃糠の如くならん 俄にまたたく間にこの事あるべし
6 Thou shalt be visited by the LORD of hosts with thunder, and with earthquake, and great noise, with storm and tempest, and the flame of devouring fire.
萬軍のヱホバはいかづち 地震 おほごゑ 暴風 つむじかぜ及びやきつくす火の燄をもて臨みたまふべし
7 And the multitude of all the nations that fight against Ariel, even all that fight against her and her strong hold, and that distress her, shall be as a dream of a night vision.
斯てアリエルを攻てたたかふ國々のもろもろ アリエルとその城とをせめたたかひて難ますものは みな夢のごとく夜のまぼろしの如くならん
8 It shall even be as when an hungry man dreameth, and, behold, he eateth; but he awaketh, and his soul is empty: or as when a thirsty man dreameth, and, behold, he drinketh; but he awaketh, and, behold, he is faint, and his soul hath appetite: so shall the multitude of all the nations be, that fight against mount Zion.
饑たるものの食ふことを夢みて醒きたればその心なほ空しきがごとく 渇けるものの飮ことを夢みて醒きたれば疲れかつ頻にのまんことを欲するがごとく シオンの山をせめて戰ふくにぐにの群衆もまた然あらん
9 Stay yourselves, and wonder; cry ye out, and cry: they are drunk, but not with wine; they stagger, but not with strong drink.
なんぢらためらへ而しておどろかん なんぢら放肆にせよ而して目くらまん かれらは酔りされど酒のゆゑにあらず かれらはよろめけりされど濃酒のゆゑにあらず
10 For the LORD hath poured out upon you the spirit of deep sleep, and hath closed your eyes: the prophets and your rulers, the seers hath he covered.
そはヱホバ酣睡の靈をなんぢらの上にそそぎ 而してなんぢらの目をとぢ なんぢらの面をおほひたまへり その目は預言者そのかほは先知者なり
11 And the vision of all is become to you as the words of a book that is sealed, which men deliver to one that is learned, saying, Read this, I pray thee: and he saith, I cannot; for it is sealed:
かかるが故にすべての默示はなんぢらには封じたる書のことばのごとくなり 文字しれる人にわたして請これを讀といはんに答へて封じたるがゆゑによむこと能はずといはん
12 And the book is delivered to him that is not learned, saying, Read this, I pray thee: and he saith, I am not learned.
また文字しらぬ人にわたして請これをよめといはんにこたへて文字しらざるなりといはん
13 Therefore the Lord said, Forasmuch as this people draw near me with their mouth, and with their lips do honour me, but have removed their heart far from me, and their fear toward me is taught by the precept of men:
主いひ給はく この民は口をもて我にちかづき口唇をもてわれを敬へども その心はわれに遠かれり そのわれを畏みおそるるは人の誡命によりてをしへられしのみ
14 Therefore, behold, I will proceed to do a marvellous work among this people, even a marvellous work and a wonder: for the wisdom of their wise men shall perish, and the understanding of their prudent men shall be hid.
この故にわれこの民のなかにて再びくすしき事をおこなはん そのわざは奇しくしていとあやし かれらの中なる智者のちゑはうせ聰明者のさときはかくれん
15 Woe to them that seek deep to hide their counsel from the LORD, and their works are in the dark, and they say, Who seeth us? and who knoweth us?
己がはかりごとをヱホバに深くかくさんとする者はわざはひなるかな 暗中にありて事をおこなひていふ 誰かわれを見んや たれか我をしらんやと
16 Surely your turning of things upside down shall be esteemed as the potter’s clay: for shall the work say of him that made it, He made me not? or shall the thing formed say of him that formed it, He had no understanding?
なんぢらは曲れり いかで陶工をみて土塊のごとくおもふ可んや 造られし者おのれを作れるものをさして我をつくれるにあらずといふをえんや 形づくられたる器はかたちづくりし者をさして智慧なしといふを得んや
17 Is it not yet a very little while, and Lebanon shall be turned into a fruitful field, and the fruitful field shall be esteemed as a forest?
暫くしてレバノンはかはりて良田となり 良田は林のごとく見ゆるとききたるならずや
18 And in that day shall the deaf hear the words of the book, and the eyes of the blind shall see out of obscurity, and out of darkness.
その日聾者はこの書のことばをきき盲者の目はくらきより闇よりみることを得べし
19 The meek also shall increase their joy in the LORD, and the poor among men shall rejoice in the Holy One of Israel.
謙だるものはヱホバによりてその歡喜をまし 人のなかの貧きものはイスラエルの聖者によりて快樂をうべし
20 For the terrible one is brought to nought, and the mocker is consumed, and all that watch for iniquity are cut off:
暴るものはたえ 侮慢者はうせ 邪曲の機をうかがふ者はことごとく斷滅さるべければなり
21 That make a man an offender for a word, and lay a snare for him that reproveth in the gate, and turn aside the just for a thing of nought.
かれらは訟をきく時まげて人をつみし 邑門にていさむるものを謀略におとしいれ 虛しき語をかまへて義人をしりぞく
22 Therefore thus saith the LORD, who redeemed Abraham, concerning the house of Jacob, Jacob shall not now be ashamed, neither shall his face now become pale.
この故にむかしアブラハムを贖ひたまひしヱホバはヤコブの家につきて如此いひたまふ ヤコブは今より恥をかうむらず その面はいまより色をうしなはず
23 But when he seeth his children, the work of my hands, in the midst of him, they shall sanctify my name, and sanctify the Holy One of Jacob, and shall fear the God of Israel.
かれの子孫はその中にわがおこなふ手のわざをみん その時わが名を聖としヤコブの聖者を聖としてイスラエルの神をおそるべし
24 They also that erred in spirit shall come to understanding, and they that murmured shall learn doctrine.
心あやまれるものも知識をえ つぶやけるものも敎誨をまなばん
