Zechariah 11
1 Open your doors, Lebanon, that the fire may devour your cedars.
レバノンよ汝の門を啓き火をして汝の香柏を焚しめよ
2 Wail, cypress tree, for the cedar has fallen, because the stately ones are destroyed. Wail, you oaks of Bashan, for the strong forest has come down.
松よ叫べ香柏は倒れ威嚴樹はそこなはれたりバシヤンの橡よ叫べ高らかなる林は倒れたり
3 A voice of the wailing of the shepherds! For their glory is destroyed—a voice of the roaring of young lions! For the pride of the Jordan is ruined.
牧者の叫ぶ聲あり其榮そこなはれたればなり猛き獅子の吼る聲ありヨルダンの叢そこなはれたればなり
4 Yahweh my God says: “Feed the flock of slaughter.
我神ヱホバかく言たまふ宰らるべき羔を牧へ
5 Their buyers slaughter them and go unpunished. Those who sell them say, ‘Blessed be Yahweh, for I am rich;’ and their own shepherds don’t pity them.
之を買ふ者は之を宰るとも罪なし之を賣る者は言ふ我富を得ればヱホバを祝すべしと其牧者もこれを惜まざるなり
6 For I will no more pity the inhabitants of the land,” says Yahweh; “but, behold, I will deliver every one of the men into his neighbor’s hand and into the hand of his king. They will strike the land, and out of their hand I will not deliver them.”
ヱホバ言たまふ我かさねて地の居民を惜まじ視よ我人を各々その隣人の手に付しその王の手に付さん彼ら地を荒すべし我これを彼らの手より救ひ出さじ
7 So I fed the flock to be slaughtered, especially the oppressed of the flock. I took for myself two staffs. The one I called “Favor” and the other I called “Union”, and I fed the flock.
我すなはち其宰らるべき羊を牧り是は最も憫然なる羊なり我みづから二本の杖を取り一を恩と名け一を結と名けてその羊を牧り
8 I cut off the three shepherds in one month; for my soul was weary of them, and their soul also loathed me.
我一月に牧者三人を絶り我心に彼らを厭ひしが彼等も心に我を惡めり
9 Then I said, “I will not feed you. That which dies, let it die; and that which is to be cut off, let it be cut off; and let those who are left eat each other’s flesh.”
我いへり我は汝らを飼はじ死る者は死に絶るる者は絶れ遺る者は互にその肉を食ひあふべし
10 I took my staff Favor and cut it apart, that I might break my covenant that I had made with all the peoples.
我恩といふ杖を取て之を折れり是諸の民に立し我契約を廢せんとてなりき
11 It was broken in that day; and thus the poor of the flock that listened to me knew that it was Yahweh’s word.
是は其日に廢せられたり是に於てかの我に聽したがひし憫然なる羊は之をヱホバの言なりしと知れり
12 I said to them, “If you think it best, give me my wages; and if not, keep them.” So they weighed for my wages thirty pieces of silver.
我彼らに向ひて汝等もし善と視なば我價を我に授けよ若しからずば止めよと言ければ彼等すなはち銀三十を權りて我價とせり
13 Yahweh said to me, “Throw it to the potter—the handsome price that I was valued at by them!” I took the thirty pieces of silver and threw them to the potter in Yahweh’s house.
ヱホバ我に言たまひけるは彼等に我が估價せられしその善價を陶人に投あたへよと我すなはち銀三十を取てヱホバの室に投いれて陶人に歸せしむ
14 Then I cut apart my other staff, Union, that I might break the brotherhood between Judah and Israel.
我また結といふ杖を折れり是ユダとイスラエルの間の和好を絶んとてなりき
15 Yahweh said to me, “Take for yourself yet again the equipment of a foolish shepherd.
ヱホバ我に言たまはく汝また愚なる牧者の器を取れ
16 For, behold, I will raise up a shepherd in the land who will not visit those who are cut off, neither will seek those who are scattered, nor heal that which is broken, nor feed that which is sound; but he will eat the meat of the fat sheep, and will tear their hoofs in pieces.
視よ我地に一人の牧者を興さん彼は亡ぶる者を顧みず迷へる者を尋ねず傷つける者を醫さず健剛なる者を飼はず肥たる者の肉を食ひ且その蹄を裂ん
17 Woe to the worthless shepherd who leaves the flock! The sword will strike his arm and his right eye. His arm will be completely withered, and his right eye will be totally blinded!”
其羊の群を棄る惡き牧者は禍なるかな劍その腕に臨みその右の目に臨まん其腕は全く枯えその右の目は全く盲れん
