Amos 6
1 Woe to those who are at ease in Zion, and to those who are secure on the mountain of Samaria, the notable men of the chief of the nations, to whom the house of Israel come!
身を安くしてシオンに居る者思ひわづらはずしてサマリヤの山に居る者 諸の國にて勝れたる國の中なる聞高くしてイスラエルの家に就きしたがはるる者は禍なるかな
2 Go to Calneh, and see. From there go to Hamath the great. Then go down to Gath of the Philistines. Are they better than these kingdoms? Is their border greater than your border?
カルネに渉りゆき彼處より大ハマテに至りまたペリシテ人のガテに下りて視よ其等は此二國に愈るや 彼らの土地は汝らの土地よりも大なるや
3 Alas for you who put far away the evil day, and cause the seat of violence to come near,
汝等は災禍の日をもて尚遠しと爲し強暴の座を近づけ
4 who lie on beds of ivory, and stretch themselves on their couches, and eat the lambs out of the flock, and the calves out of the middle of the stall,
自ら象牙の牀に臥し寢臺の上に身を伸し群の中より羔羊を取り圏の中より犢牛を取て食ひ
5 who strum on the strings of a harp, who invent for themselves instruments of music, like David;
琴の音にあはせて唄ひ噪ぎダビデのごとくに樂器を製り出し
6 who drink wine in bowls, and anoint themselves with the best oils, but they are not grieved for the affliction of Joseph.
大斝をもて酒を飮み最も貴とき膏を身に抹りヨセフの艱難を憂へざるなり
7 Therefore they will now go captive with the first who go captive. The feasting and lounging will end.
是故に今彼等は擄はれて俘囚人の眞先に立て往んかの身を伸したる者等の嘈の聲止べし
8 “The Lord GOD has sworn by himself,” says the LORD, the God of Hosts: “I abhor the pride of Jacob, and detest his fortresses. Therefore I will deliver up the city with all that is in it.
萬軍の神ヱホバ言たまふ 主ヱホバ己を指て誓へり 我ヤコブが誇る所の物を忌嫌ひその宮殿を惡む 我この邑とその中に充る者とを付すべし
9 It will happen that if ten men remain in one house, they will die.
一の家に十人遺りをるとも皆死ん
10 “When a man’s relative carries him, even he who burns him, to bring bodies out of the house, and asks him who is in the innermost parts of the house, ‘Is there yet any with you?’ And he says, ‘No;’ then he will say, ‘Hush! Indeed we must not mention the LORD’s name.’
而してその親戚すなはち之を焚く者その死骸を家より運びいださんとて之を取あげまたその家の奥に潛み居る者に向ひて他になほ汝とともに居る者あるやと言ふとき對へて一人も無しと言ん 此時かの人また言べし 黙せよヱホバの名を口に擧ること有べからずと
11 “For, behold, the LORD commands, and the great house will be smashed to pieces, and the little house into bits.
視よヱホバ命を下し大なる家を撃て墟址とならしめ小き家を撃て微塵とならしめたまふ
12 Do horses run on the rocky crags? Does one plow there with oxen? But you have turned justice into poison, and the fruit of righteousness into bitterness,
馬あに能く岩の上を走らんや 人あに牛をもて岩を耕へすことを得んや 然るに汝らは公道を毒に變じ正義の果を茵蔯に變じたり
13 you who rejoice in a thing of nothing, who say, ‘Haven’t we taken for ourselves horns by our own strength?’
汝らは無物を喜び我儕は自分の力をもて角を得しにあらずやと言ふ
14 For, behold, I will raise up against you a nation, house of Israel,” says the LORD, the God of Hosts; “and they will afflict you from the entrance of Hamath to the brook of the Arabah.”
是をもて萬軍の神ヱホバ言たまふ イスラエルの家よ我一の國を起して汝らに敵せしめん 是はハマテの入口よりアラバの川までも汝らをなやまさん
