< Haggai 2 >
1 In the seventh [month], in the twenty and first of the month, hath a word of Jehovah been by the hand of Haggai the prophet, saying:
七月其月の二十一日ヱホバの言預言者ハガイによりて臨めり曰く
2 'Speak, I pray thee, unto Zerubbabel son of Shealtiel, governor of Judah, and unto Joshua, son of Josedech, the high priest, and unto the remnant of the people, saying:
シヤルテルの子ユダの方伯ゼルバベルとヨザダクの子祭司の長ヨシユアおよびその殘れる一切の民に告よ
3 Who among you hath been left that saw this house in its former honour? And what are ye seeing it now? Is it not, compared with it, as nothing in your eyes?
なんぢら遺れる者の中この殿の從前の榮光を見しものは誰ぞや 今これを如何に見るや かの殿にくらぶれば是は汝らの目に何もなきが如く見ゆるにあらずや
4 And now, be strong, O Zerubbabel, An affirmation of Jehovah, And be strong, O Joshua, son of Josedech, the high priest, And be strong, all ye people of the land, An affirmation of Jehovah, And do ye — (for I [am] with you, An affirmation of Jehovah of Hosts) —
ヱホバ曰たまふゼルバベルよ自ら強くせよ ヨザダクの子祭司の長ヨシユアよ自ら強くせよ ヱホバ言たまふ この地の民よ自らつよくしてはたらけ 我なんぢらとともに在り 萬軍のヱホバこれを言ふ
5 The thing that I covenanted with you, In your coming forth from Egypt, And My Spirit is remaining in your midst, fear not.
汝らがエジプトよりいでし時わがなんぢらに約せし言およびわが靈なほなんぢらの中に留れり 懼るるなかれ
6 For thus said Jehovah of Hosts: Yet once more — it [is] a little, And I am shaking the heavens and the earth, And the sea, and the dry land,
萬軍のヱホバかくいひたまふ いま一度しばらくありてわれ天と地と海と陸とを震動はん
7 And I have shaken all the nations, And they have come [to] the desire of all the nations, And I have filled this house [with] honour, Said Jehovah of Hosts.
又われ萬國を震動はん また萬國の願ふところのもの來らん 又われ榮光をもてこの殿に充滿さん 萬軍のヱホバこれを言ふ
8 Mine [is] the silver, and Mine the gold, An affirmation of Jehovah of Hosts.
銀も我ものなり 金もわが物なりと萬軍のヱホバいひたまふ
9 Greater is the honour of this latter house, Than of the former, said Jehovah of Hosts, And in this place do I give peace, An affirmation of Jehovah of Hosts.'
この殿の後の榮光は從前の榮光より大ならんと萬軍のヱホバいひたまふ この處においてわれ平康をあたへんと萬軍のヱホバいひたまふ
10 On the twenty and fourth of the ninth [month], in the second year of Darius, hath a word of Jehovah been by the hand of Haggai the prophet, saying:
ダリヨスの二年九月二十四日ヱホバのことば預言者ハガイによりて臨めり曰く
11 Thus said Jehovah of Hosts: 'Ask, I pray thee, the priests [of] the law, saying:
萬軍のヱホバかく曰たまふ 律法につきて祭司に問ふて曰ふべし
12 Lo, one doth carry holy flesh in the skirt of his garment, and he hath come with his skirt against the bread, or against the pottage, or against the wine, or against the oil, or against any food — is it holy?' And the priests answer and say, 'No.'
人衣の裾にて聖肉を携へたらんにその裾もしパン或は羮あるひは酒あるひは油あるひは他の食物に捫らばそれらは聖ものとなるや 祭司たち答へて曰けるはしからず
13 And Haggai saith, 'If the unclean of body doth come against any of these, is it unclean?' And the priests answer and say, 'It is unclean.'
ハガイまたいひけるは屍體に捫りて汚れしもの若これらの物にさはらば其ものはけがるべきや 祭司等こたへて曰けるは汚れん
14 And Haggai answereth and saith, 'So [is] this people, and so [is] this nation before Me — an affirmation of Jehovah — and so [is] every work of their hands, and that which they bring near there — it is unclean.
ここに於てハガイ答へて曰けるはヱホバ曰たまふ 我前此民もかくの如くまた此國もかくの如し 又其手の一切のわざもかくのごとく彼等がその處に獻ぐるものもけがれたるものなり
15 And now, lay [it], I pray you, to your heart, From this day, and onwards, Before the laying of stone to stone in the temple of Jehovah.
また今われ汝らに乞 この日より以前すなはちヱホバの殿にて石の上に石の置れざりし時を憶念べし
16 From that time [one] hath come to a heap of twenty, And it hath been ten, He hath come unto the wine-fat to draw out fifty purahs, And it hath been twenty.
かの時には二十舛もあるべき麥束につきてわづかに十を得 また酒榨につきて五十桶汲んとせしにただ二十を得たるのみ
17 I have smitten you with blasting, And with mildew, and with hail — All the work of your hands, And there is none of you with Me, An affirmation of Jehovah.
汝が手をもて爲せる一切の事に於てわれ不實穗と朽腐穗と雹を以てなんぢらを撃り されど汝ら我にかへらざりき ヱホバこれを言ふ
18 Set [it], I pray you, to your heart, from this day and onwards, from the twenty and fourth day of the ninth [month], even from the day that the temple of Jehovah hath been founded, set [it] to your heart.
なんぢらこの日より以前を憶念みよ 即ち九月二十四日よりヱホバの殿の基を置し日までをおもひ見よ
19 Is the seed yet in the barn? And hitherto the vine and the fig, And the pomegranate, and the olive-tree, Have not borne — from this day I bless.'
種子なほ倉にあるや 葡萄の樹 無花果の樹 石榴の樹 橄欖の樹もいまだ實を結ばざりき 此日よりのちわれ汝らを惠まん
20 And there is a word of Jehovah a second time unto Haggai, on the twenty and fourth of the month, saying:
此月の二十四日にヱホバのことば再びハガイに臨めり曰く
21 'Speak unto Zerubbabel governor of Judah, saying: I am shaking the heavens and the earth,
ユダの方伯ゼルバベルに告よ われ天地を震動ん
22 And have overturned the throne of kingdoms, And I have destroyed the strength of kingdoms of the nations, And overturned chariot and its charioteers, And come down have horses and their riders, Each by the sword of his brother.
列國の位を倒さん また異邦の諸國の權勢を滅さん 又車および之に駕る者を倒さん 馬および之に騎る者もおのおの其伴侶の劍によりてたふれん
23 In that day — an affirmation of Jehovah of Hosts, I take thee, Zerubbabel, son of Shealtiel, My servant — an affirmation of Jehovah, And have set thee as a signet, for on thee I have fixed, An affirmation of Jehovah of Hosts!
萬軍のヱホバ曰たまはくシヤルテルの子わが僕ゼルバベルよヱホバいふその日に我なんぢを取りなんぢを印の如くにせん そはわれ汝をえらびたればなり 萬軍のヱホバこれを言ふ
