Jeremiah 13
1 Thus said Jehovah unto me, 'Go, and thou hast got for thee a girdle of linen, and hast placed it on thy loins, and into water thou dost not cause it to enter:'
ヱホバかくいひたまへり汝ゆきて麻の帶をかひ汝の腰にむすべ水に入る勿れ
2 and I get the girdle, according to the word of Jehovah, and I place [it] on my loins.
われすなはちヱホバの言に遵ひ帶をかひてわが腰にむすべり
3 And there is a word of Jehovah unto me a second time, saying,
ヱホバの言ふたたび我にのぞみて云ふ
4 'Take the girdle that thou hast got, that [is] on thy loins, and rise, go to Phrat, and hide it there in a hole of the rock;
汝が買て腰にむすべる帶を取り起てユフラテにゆき彼處にてこれを磐の穴にかくせと
5 and I go and hide it by Phrat, as Jehovah commanded me.
ここに於てわれヱホバの命じたまひし如く往てこれをユフラテの涯にかくせり
6 And it cometh to pass, at the end of many days, that Jehovah saith unto me, 'Rise, go to Phrat, and take thence the girdle, that I commanded thee to hide there;'
おほくの日を經しのちヱホバ我にいひたまひけるは起てユフラテにゆきわが汝に命じて彼處にかくさしめし帶を取れと
7 and I go to Phrat, and dig, and take the girdle from the place where I had hid it; and lo, the girdle hath been marred, it is not profitable for anything.
われすなはちユフラテにゆき帶を我隱せしところより掘取りしにその帶は朽て用ふるにたへず
8 And there is a word of Jehovah unto me, saying, 'Thus said Jehovah:
またヱホバの言われにのぞみて云ふ
9 Thus do I mar the excellency of Judah, And the great excellency of Jerusalem.
ヱホバかくいふ我かくの如くユダの驕傲とヱルサレムの大なる驕傲をやぶらん
10 This evil people, who refuse to hear My words, Who walk in the stubbornness of their heart, And go after other gods to serve them, And to bow themselves to them, Yea it is — as this girdle, that is not profitable for anything.
この惡き民はわが言を聽ことをこばみ己の心の剛愎なるにしたがひて行み且他の神に從ひてこれにつかへ之を拜す彼等は此帶の用ふるにたへざるが如くなるべし
11 For, as the girdle cleaveth unto the loins of a man, So I caused to cleave unto Me The whole house of Israel, And the whole house of Judah, an affirmation of Jehovah, To be to Me for a people, and for a name, And for praise, and for beauty, And they have not hearkened.
ヱホバいふ帶の人の腰に附がごとくわれイスラエルのすべての家とユダのすべての家を我に附しめ之を我民となし名となし譽となし榮となさんとせり然るに彼等はきかざりき
12 And thou hast said unto them this word, Thus said Jehovah, God of Israel, 'Every bottle is full of wine,' And they have said unto thee: 'Do we not certainly know that every bottle is full of wine?'
故に汝この言を彼らに語るべしイスラエルの神ヱホバかくいふ酒壺には皆酒盈つと彼汝にこたへていはん我儕豈酒壺に酒の盈ることを知ざらんやと
13 And thou hast said unto them, 'Thus said Jehovah: Lo, I am filling all the inhabitants of this land, And the kings who sit for David on his throne, And the priests, and the prophets, And all the inhabitants of Jerusalem, [With] drunkenness,
其時汝かれらにいふべしヱホバかくいふみよわれ此地に住るすべての者とダビデの位に坐する王等と祭司と預言者およびヱルサレムに住るすべての者に醉を盈せ
14 And have dashed them one against another, And the fathers and the sons together, An affirmation of Jehovah, I do not pity, nor spare, nor have I mercy, So as not to destroy them.
彼らを此と彼と打あはせて碎かん父と子をも然すべしわれ彼らを恤まず惜まず憐まずして滅さん
15 Hear, and give ear — be not haughty, For Jehovah hath spoken.
汝らきけ耳を傾けよ驕る勿れヱホバかたりたまふなり
16 Give ye to Jehovah your God honour, Before He doth cause darkness, And before your feet stumble on dark mountains, And ye have waited for light, And He hath made it for death-shade, And hath appointed [it] for thick darkness.
汝らの神ヱホバに其いまだ暗を起したまはざる先汝らの足のくらき山に躓かざる先に榮光を皈すべし汝ら光明を望まんにヱホバ之を死の蔭に變へ之を昏黑となしたまふにいたらん
17 And if ye do not hear it, In secret places doth my soul weep, because of pride, Yea, it weepeth sore, And the tear cometh down mine eyes, For the flock of Jehovah hath been taken captive.
汝ら若これを聽ずば我靈魂は汝らの驕を隱なるところに悲まん又ヱホバの群の掠めらるるによりて我目いたく泣て涙をながすべし
18 Say to the king and to the mistress: Make yourselves low — sit still, For come down have your principalities, The crown of your beauty.
なんぢ王と大后につげよ汝ら自ら謙りて坐せそはなんぢらの美しき冕汝らの首より落べければなり
19 The cities of the south have been shut up, And there is none opening, Judah hath been removed — all of her, She hath been removed completely —
南の諸邑は閉てこれを啓く人なしユダは皆擄移され盡くとらへ移さる
20 Lift up your eyes, and see those coming in from the north, Where [is] the drove given to thee, thy beautiful flock?
汝ら目を擧げて北より來る者をみよ汝らが賜はりし群汝のうるはしき群はいづこにあるや
21 What dost thou say, when He looketh after thee? And thou — thou hast taught them [to be] over thee — leaders for head? Do not pangs seize thee as a travailing woman?
かれ汝の親み馴たる者を汝の上にたてて首領となさんとき汝何のいふべきことあらんや汝の痛は子をうむ婦のごとくならざらんや
22 And when thou dost say in thy heart, 'Wherefore have these met me?' For the abundance of thine iniquity Have thy skirts been uncovered, Have thy heels suffered violence.
汝心のうちに何故にこの事我にきたるやといふか汝の罪の重によりて汝の裾は掲げられなんぢの踵はあらはさるるなり
23 Doth a Cushite change his skin? and a leopard his spots? Ye also are able to do good, who are accustomed to do evil.
エテオピア人その膚をかへうるか豹その斑駁をかへうるか若これを爲しえば惡に慣たる汝らも善をなし得べし
24 And I scatter them as stubble, Passing away, by a wind of the wilderness.
故にわれ彼らを散して野の風に吹散さるる皮壳のごとくせん
25 This [is] thy lot, the portion of thy measures from Me — an affirmation of Jehovah, Because thou hast forgotten me, And dost trust in falsehood.
ヱホバいひたまふこは汝の得べき分わが量て汝にあたふる產業なり汝我をわすれて虛假を依賴ばなり
26 I also have made bare thy skirts before thy face, And thy shame hath been seen.
故にわれ汝の前の裳を剥ぎて汝の羞恥をあらはさん
27 Thine adulteries, and thy neighings, The wickedness of thy whoredom, on heights in a field, I have seen thine abominations. Woe to thee, O Jerusalem, Thou art not cleansed, after when [is it] again?
われ汝の姦淫と汝の嘶と汝が岡のうへと野になせし汝の亂淫の罪と汝の憎むべき行をみたりヱルサレムよ汝は禍なるかな汝の潔くせらるるには尚いくばくの時を經べきや
