Micah 1
1 The word of the LORD that came to Micah the Morasthite in the days of Jotham, Ahaz, and Hezekiah, kings of Judah, which he saw concerning Samaria and Jerusalem.
ユダの王ヨタム、アハズおよびヒゼキヤの代にモレシテ人ミカに臨めるヱホバの言是すなはちサマリアとエルサレムの事につきて彼が示されたる者なり
2 Hear, all ye people; hearken, O earth, and all that is in it: and let the Lord GOD be witness against you, the Lord from his holy temple.
萬民よ聽け 地とその中の者よ耳を傾けよ 主ヱホバ汝らに對ひて證を立てたまはん 即ち主その聖殿より之を立たまふべし
3 For, behold, the LORD cometh forth from his place, and will come down, and tread upon the high places of the earth.
視よヱホバその處より出てくだり地の高處を踏みたまはん
4 And the mountains shall be melted under him, and the valleys shall be cleft, as wax before the fire, and as the waters that are poured down a steep place.
山は彼の下に融け谷は裂けたり 火の前なる蝋のごとく坡に流るる水の如し
5 For the transgression of Jacob is all this, and for the sins of the house of Israel. What is the transgression of Jacob? is it not Samaria? and what are the high places of Judah? are they not Jerusalem?
是みなヤコブの咎の故イスラエルの家の罪のゆゑなり ヤコブの愆とは何か サマリヤにあらずや ユダの崇邱とは何か エルサレムにあらずや
6 Therefore I will make Samaria as an heap of the field, and as plantings of a vineyard: and I will pour down her stones into the valley, and I will lay bare her foundations.
是故に我サマリヤを野の石堆となし葡萄を植る處と爲し又その石を谷に投おとしその基を露さん
7 And all her graven images shall be beaten to pieces, and all her hires shall be burned with the fire, and all her idols will I lay desolate: for she gathered it from the hire of an harlot, and they shall return to the hire of an harlot.
その石像はみな碎かれその獲たる價金はみな火にて焚れん 我その偶像をことごとく毀たん 彼妓女の價金よりこれを積たれば是はまた歸りて妓女の價金となるべし
8 Therefore I will wail and weep, I will go stripped and naked: I will make a wailing like the dragons, and mourning as the owls.
我これがために哭き咷ばん 衣を脱ぎ裸體にて歩行ん 山犬のごとくに哭き駝鳥のごとくに啼ん
9 For her wound is incurable; for it is come to Judah; he is come to the gate of my people, even to Jerusalem.
サマリヤの傷は醫すべからざる者にてすでにユダに至り我民の門エルサレムにまでおよべり
10 Declare ye it not at Gath, weep ye not at all: in the house of Aphrah roll thyself in the dust.
ガテに傳ふるなかれ 泣さけぶ勿れ ベテレアフラにて我塵の中に輾びたり
11 Pass ye away, thou inhabitant of Saphir, having thy shame naked: the inhabitant of Zaanan came not forth in the mourning of Bethezel; he shall receive from you his standing.
サピルに住る者よ 汝ら裸になり辱を蒙りて進みゆけ ザアナンに住る者は敢て出ず ベテエゼルのの哀哭によりて汝らは立處を得ず
12 For the inhabitant of Maroth became weak waiting for good: but evil came down from the LORD to the gate of Jerusalem.
マロテに住る者は己の幸福につきて思ひなやむ 其は災禍ヱホバより出てエルサレムの門に臨めばなり
13 O thou inhabitant of Lachish, bind the chariot to the swift beast: she is the beginning of the sin to the daughter of Zion: for the transgressions of Israel were found in thee.
ラキシに住る者よ馬に車をつなげ ラキシはシオンの女の罪の根本なり イスラエルの愆は汝の中に見ゆ
14 Therefore shalt thou give presents to Moreshethgath: the houses of Achzib shall be a lie to the kings of Israel.
この故に汝モレセテガテに離別の饋物を與へよ アクジブの家々はイスラエルの王等におけること人を欺く溪川のごとくなるべし
15 Yet will I bring an heir to thee, O inhabitant of Mareshah: he shall come to Adullam the glory of Israel.
マレシヤにすめる者よ 我また汝の地を獲べき者を汝に携へ往べし イスラエルの榮光アドラムに往ん
16 Make thee bald, and cut off the hair of thy delicate children; enlarge thy baldness as the eagle; for they are gone into captivity from thee.
汝その悦ぶところの子等の故によりて汝の髪を剃おろせ 汝の首の剃し處を大きくして鷲のごとくにせよ 其は彼等擄へられて汝を離るればなり
