< Isaiah 36 >

1 And it cometh to pass, in the fourteenth year of king Hezekiah, come up hath Sennacherib king of Asshur against all the fenced cities of Judah, and seizeth them.
ヒゼキヤ王の十四年にアツスリヤの王セナケリブ上りきたりてユダのもろもろの堅固なる邑をせめとれり
2 And the king of Asshur sendeth Rabshakeh from Lachish to Jerusalem, unto the king Hezekiah, with a heavy force, and he standeth by the conduit of the upper pool, in the highway of the fuller's field,
アツスリヤ王ラキシよりラブシヤケをヱルサレムに遣はし大軍をひきゐてヒゼキヤ王のもとに往しむ ラブシヤケ漂工の野のおほぢの傍なる上の池の樋にそひてたてり
3 and go forth unto him doth Eliakim son of Hilkiah, who [is] over the house, and Shebna the scribe, and Joah son of Asaph, the remembrancer.
この時ヒゼキヤの子なる家司エリアキム 書記セブナ、アサフの子なる史官ヨア出てこれを迎ふ
4 And Rabshakeh saith unto them, 'Say ye, I pray you, unto Hezekiah, 'Thus said the great king, the king of Asshur, What [is] this confidence in which thou hast confided?
ラブシヤケかれらにいひけるは なんぢら今ヒゼキヤにいへ大王アツスリヤの王かくいへり なんぢの恃とするその恃むところは何なるか
5 I have said: Only, a word of the lips! counsel and might [are] for battle: now, on whom hast thou trusted, that thou hast rebelled against me?
我いふ なんぢが説ところの軍のはかりごととその能力とはただ口唇のことばのみ 今なんぢ誰によりたのみて我にさかふことをなすや
6 'Lo, thou hast trusted on the staff of this broken reed — on Egypt — which a man leaneth on, and it hath gone into his hand, and pierced it — so [is] Pharaoh king of Egypt to all those trusting on him.
視よなんぢエジプトに依賴めり これ傷める葦の杖によりたのめるがごとし もし人これに倚もたれなばその手をつきさされん エジプト王パロがすべて己によりたのむものに對するは斯のごとし
7 'And dost thou say unto me, Unto Jehovah our God we have trusted? is it not He, whose high places and whose altars Hezekiah hath turned aside, and saith to Judah and to Jerusalem, Before this altar ye do bow yourselves?
汝われらはわれらの神ヱホバに依賴めりと我にいはんかそは曩にヒゼキヤが高きところと祭壇とをみな取去てユダとヱルサレムとにむかひ汝等ここなる一つの祭壇のまへにて拜すべしといへる夫ならずや
8 'And now, negotiate, I pray thee, with my lord the king of Asshur, and I give to thee two thousand horses, if thou art able to put for thee riders on them.
いま請わが君アツスリヤ王に賭をせよ われ汝に二千の馬を與ふべければ汝よりこれに乗ものをいだせ 果して出しうべしや
9 And how dost thou turn back the face of one captain of the least of the servants of my lord, and dost trust for thee on Egypt, for chariot and for horsemen?
然ばいかで我君のいとちひさき僕の長一人をだに退くることを得んや なんぞエジプトによりたのみて戰車と騎兵とをえんとするや
10 And now, without Jehovah have I come up against this land to destroy it? Jehovah said unto me, Go up unto this land, and thou hast destroyed it.'
いま我のぼりきたりてこの國をせめほろぼすはヱホバの旨にあらざるべけんや ヱホバわれにいひたまはく のぼりゆきてこの國をせめぼろぼせと
11 And Eliakim saith — and Shebna and Joah — unto Rabshakeh, 'Speak, we pray thee, unto thy servants [in] Aramaean, for we are understanding; and do not speak unto us [in] Jewish, in the ears of the people who [are] on the wall.'
爰にエリアキムとセブナとヨアと共にラブシヤケにいひけるは請スリアの方言にて僕輩にかたれ我儕これをさとりうるなり石垣のうへなる民のきくところにてはユダヤの方言をもてわれらに語るなかれ
12 And Rabshakeh saith, 'Unto thy lord, and unto thee, hath my lord sent me to speak these words? is it not for the men — those sitting on the wall to eat their own dung and to drink their own water with you?'
ラブシヤケいひけるは わが君はこれらのことをなんぢの君となんぢとにのみ語らんために我をつかはししならんや なんぢらと共におのが糞をくらひおのが溺をのまんとする石垣のうへに坐する人々にも我をつかはししならずや
13 And Rabshakeh standeth and calleth with a great voice [in] Jewish, and saith, 'Hear ye the words of the great king, the king of Asshur:
斯てラブシヤケたちてユダヤの方言もて大聲によばはりいひけるは なんぢら大王アツスリヤ王のことばをきくべし
14 Thus said the king, Let not Hezekiah lift you up, for he is not able to deliver you;
王かくのたまへり なんぢらヒゼキヤに惑はさるるなかれ 彼なんぢらを救ふことあたはず
15 and let not Hezekiah make you trust unto Jehovah, saying, Jehovah doth certainly deliver us, this city is not given into the hand of the king of Asshur.
ヒゼキヤがなんぢらをヱホバに賴しめんとする言にしたがふなかれ 彼いへらく ヱホバかならず我儕をすくひこの邑はアツスリヤ王の手にわたさるることなしと
16 'Do not hearken unto Hezekiah, for thus said the king of Asshur, Make ye with me a blessing, and come out unto me, and eat ye each of his vine, and each of his fig-tree, and drink ye each the waters of his own well,
ヒゼキヤに聽從ふなかれ アツスリヤ王かくのたまへり なんぢらわれと親和をなし出できたりて我にくだれ おのおのその葡萄とその無花果とをくらひ かのおのその井の水をのむことを得べし
17 till my coming in, and I have taken you unto a land like your own land, a land of corn and wine, a land of bread and vineyards;
遂には我きたりて汝等をほかの國にたづさへゆかん その國はなんぢの國のごとき國にして 穀物 ぶだう酒 パンおよび葡萄園あり
18 lest Hezekiah doth persuade you, saying, Jehovah doth deliver us. 'Have the gods of the nations delivered each his land out of the hand of the king of Asshur?
おそらくはをヒゼキヤなんぢらに説てヱホバわれらを救ふべしといはん 然どももろもろの國の神等のなかにその國をアツスリヤ王の手より救へる者ありしや
19 Where [are] the gods of Hamath and Arpad? Where the gods of Sepharvaim, that they have delivered Samaria out of my hand?
ハマテ、アルバデの神等いづこにありや セバルワイムの神等いづこにありや 又わが手よりサマリヤを救出しし神ありや
20 Who among all the gods of these lands [are] they who have delivered their land out of my hand, that Jehovah doth deliver Jerusalem out of my hand?'
これらの國のもろもろの神のなかに誰かその國をわが手よりすくひいだしし者ありや さればヱホバも何でわが手よりヱルサレムを救ひいだし得んと
21 And they keep silent, and have not answered him a word, for a command of the king is, saying, 'Do not answer him.'
如此ありければ民は默して一言をもこたへざりき そは之にこたふるなかれとの王のおほせありつればなり
22 And Eliakim son of Hilkiah, who [is] over the house, cometh in, and Shebna the scribe, and Joah son of Asaph, the remembrancer, unto Hezekiah with rent garments, and they declare to him the words of Rabshakeh.
そのときヒルキヤの子なる家司エリアキム書記セブナおよびアサフの子なる史官ヨアころもを裂てヒゼキヤにゆき之にラブシヤケの言をつげたり
