Isaiah 1
1 The vision of Isaiah the son of Amoz, which he saw concerning Judah and Jerusalem, in the days of Uzziah, Jotham, Ahaz, and Hezekiah, kings of Judah.
アモツの子イザヤがユダの王ウジヤ、ヨタム、アハズ、ヒゼキヤのときに示されたるユダとヱルサレムとに係る異象
2 Hear, heavens, and listen, earth; for the LORD has spoken: “I have nourished and brought up children and they have rebelled against me.
天よきけ地よ耳をかたぶけよ ヱホバの語りたまふ言あり 曰く われ子をやしなひ育てしにかれらは我にそむけり
3 The ox knows his owner, and the donkey his master’s crib; but Israel doesn’t know. My people don’t consider.”
牛はその主をしり驢馬はそのあるじの廐をしる 然どイスラエルは識ず わが民はさとらず
4 Ah sinful nation, a people loaded with iniquity, offspring of evildoers, children who deal corruptly! They have forsaken the LORD. They have despised the Holy One of Israel. They are estranged and backward.
ああ罪ををかせる國人よこしまを負ふたみ 惡をなす者のすゑ壞りそこなふ種族 かれらはヱホバをすてイスラエルの聖者をあなどり之をうとみて退きたり
5 Why should you be beaten more, that you revolt more and more? The whole head is sick, and the whole heart faint.
なんぢら何ぞかさねがさね悖りて猶撻れんとするか その頭はやまざる所なくその心はつかれはてたり
6 From the sole of the foot even to the head there is no soundness in it, but wounds, welts, and open sores. They haven’t been closed, bandaged, or soothed with oil.
足のうらより頭にいたるまで全きところなくただ創痍と打傷と腫物とのみなり 而してこれを合すものなく包むものなく亦あぶらにて軟らぐる者もなし
7 Your country is desolate. Your cities are burnt with fire. Strangers devour your land in your presence and it is desolate, as overthrown by strangers.
なんぢらの國はあれすたれなんぢらの諸邑は火にてやかれなんぢらの田畑はその前にて外人にのまれ既にあだし人にくつがへされて荒廢れたり
8 The daughter of Zion is left like a shelter in a vineyard, like a hut in a field of melons, like a besieged city.
シオンの女はぶだうぞのの廬のごとく瓜田の假舎のごとくまた圍をうけたる城のごとく唯ひとり遺れり
9 Unless the LORD of Armies had left to us a very small remnant, we would have been as Sodom. We would have been like Gomorrah.
萬軍のヱホバわれらに少しの遺をとどめ給ふことなくば我儕はソドムのごとく又ゴモラに同じかりしならん
10 Hear the LORD’s word, you rulers of Sodom! Listen to the law of our God, you people of Gomorrah!
なんぢらソドムの有司よヱホバの言をきけ なんぢらゴモラの民よわれらの神の律法に耳をかたぶけよ
11 “What are the multitude of your sacrifices to me?”, says the LORD. “I have had enough of the burnt offerings of rams and the fat of fed animals. I don’t delight in the blood of bulls, or of lambs, or of male goats.
ヱホバ言たまはくなんぢらが獻ぐるおほくの犠牲はわれに何の益あらんや我はをひつじの燔祭とこえたるけものの膏とにあけり われは牡牛あるひは小羊あるひは牡山羊の血をよろこばず
12 When you come to appear before me, who has required this at your hand, to trample my courts?
なんぢらは我に見えんとてきたる このことを誰がなんぢらに要めしや 徒らにわが庭をふむのみなり
13 Bring no more vain offerings. Incense is an abomination to me. New moons, Sabbaths, and convocations— I can’t stand evil assemblies.
むなしき祭物をふたたび携ふることなかれ 燻物はわがにくむところ 新月および安息日また會衆をよびあつむることも我がにくむところなり なんぢらは聖會に惡を兼ぬ われ容すにたへず
14 My soul hates your New Moons and your appointed feasts. They are a burden to me. I am weary of bearing them.
わが心はなんぢらの新月と節會とをきらふ 是わが重荷なりわれ負にうみたり
15 When you spread out your hands, I will hide my eyes from you. Yes, when you make many prayers, I will not hear. Your hands are full of blood.
我なんぢらが手をのぶるとき目をおほひ 汝等がおほくの祈祷をなすときも聞ことをせじ なんぢらの手には血みちたり
16 Wash yourselves. Make yourself clean. Put away the evil of your doings from before my eyes. Cease to do evil.
なんぢら己をあらひ己をきょくしわが眼前よりその惡業をさり惡をおこなふことを止め
17 Learn to do well. Seek justice. Relieve the oppressed. Defend the fatherless. Plead for the widow.”
善をおこなふことをならひ 公平をもとめ虐げらるる者をたすけ 孤児に公平をおこなひ寡婦の訟をあげつらへ
18 “Come now, and let’s reason together,” says the LORD: “Though your sins are as scarlet, they shall be as white as snow. Though they are red like crimson, they shall be as wool.
ヱホバいひたまはく 率われらともに論らはん なんぢらの罪は緋のごとくなるも雪のごとく白くなり紅のごとく赤くとも羊の毛のごとくにならん
19 If you are willing and obedient, you will eat the good of the land;
若なんぢら肯ひしたがはば地の美産をくらふことを得べし
20 but if you refuse and rebel, you will be devoured with the sword; for the LORD’s mouth has spoken it.”
もし汝等こばみそむかば劍にのまるべし 此はヱホバその御口よりかたりたまヘるなり
21 How the faithful city has become a prostitute! She was full of justice. Righteousness lodged in her, but now there are murderers.
忠信なりし邑いかにして妓女とはなれる 昔しは公平にてみち正義その中にやどりしに今は人をころす者ばかりとなりぬ
22 Your silver has become dross, your wine mixed with water.
なんぢの白銀は滓となり なんぢ葡萄酒は水をまじへ
23 Your princes are rebellious and companions of thieves. Everyone loves bribes and follows after rewards. They don’t defend the fatherless, neither does the cause of the widow come to them.
なんぢの長輩はそむきて盗人の伴侶となり おのおの賄賂をよろこび贈財をおひもとめ 孤児に公平をおこなはず寡婦の訟はかれらの前にいづるとと能はず
24 Therefore the Lord, GOD of Armies, the Mighty One of Israel, says: “Ah, I will get relief from my adversaries, and avenge myself on my enemies.
このゆゑに主萬軍のヱホバ、イスラエルの全能者のたまはく 唆われ敵にむかひて念をはらし仇にむかひて報をすべし
25 I will turn my hand on you, thoroughly purge away your dross, and will take away all your tin.
我また手をなんぢの上にそへ なんぢの滓をことごとく淨くし なんぢの鉛をすべて取去り
26 I will restore your judges as at the first, and your counsellors as at the beginning. Afterward you shall be called ‘The city of righteousness, a faithful town.’
なんぢの審士を舊のごとく なんぢの議官を始のごとくに復すべし 然るのちなんぢは正義の邑忠信の邑ととなへられん
27 Zion shall be redeemed with justice, and her converts with righteousness.
シオンは公平をもてあがなはれ 歸來るものも正義をもて贖はるべし
28 But the destruction of transgressors and sinners shall be together, and those who forsake the LORD shall be consumed.
されど愆ををかすものと罪人とはともに敗れ ヱホバをすつる者もまた亡びうせん
29 For they shall be ashamed of the oaks which you have desired, and you shall be confounded for the gardens that you have chosen.
なんぢらはその喜びたる橿樹によりて恥をいだき そのえらびたる園によりて慙赧むべし
30 For you shall be as an oak whose leaf fades, and as a garden that has no water.
なんぢらは葉のかるる橿樹のごとく水なき園のごとくならん
31 The strong will be like tinder, and his work like a spark. They will both burn together, and no one will quench them.”
權勢あるものは麻のごとくその工は火花のごとく 二つのもの一同もえてこれを撲滅すものなし
