Jeremiah 31
1 At that time, an affirmation of Jehovah, I am for God to all families of Israel, And they — they are to Me for a people.
ヱホバいひたまふ其時われはイスラエルの諸の族の神となり彼らは我民とならん
2 Thus said Jehovah: Found grace in the wilderness Hath a people remaining from the sword Going to cause it to rest — Israel.
ヱホバかくいひたまふ劍をのがれて遺りし民は曠野の中に恩を獲たりわれ往て彼イスラエルに安息をあたへん
3 From afar Jehovah hath appeared to me, With love age-during I have loved thee, Therefore I have drawn thee [with] kindness.
遠方よりヱホバ我に顯れていひたまふ我窮なき愛をもて汝を愛せり故にわれたえず汝をめぐむなり
4 Again do I build thee, And thou hast been built, O virgin of Israel, Again thou puttest on thy tabrets, And hast gone out in the chorus of the playful.
イスラエルの童女よわれ復び汝を建ん汝は建らるべし汝ふたたび鼗をもて身を飾り歡樂者の舞にいでん
5 Again thou dost plant vineyards In mountains of Samaria, Planters have planted, and made common.
汝また葡萄の樹をサマリヤの山に植ん植る者は植てその果を食ふことをえん
6 For there is a day, Cried have watchmen on mount Ephraim, 'Rise, and we go up to Zion, unto Jehovah our God;
エフライムの山の上に守望者の立て呼はる日きたらんいはく汝ら起よ我らシオンにのぼりて我儕の神ヱホバにまうでんと
7 For thus said Jehovah: Sing, O ye to Jacob, [with] joy, And cry aloud at the head of the nations, Sound ye, praise ye, and say, Save, O Jehovah, thy people, the remnant of Israel.
ヱホバかくいひたまふ汝らヤコブの爲に歡びて呼はり萬國の首なる者のために叫べ汝ら示し且歌ひて言へヱホバよ願くはイスラエルの遺れる者汝の民を救ひたまへと
8 Lo, I am bringing them in from the north country, And have gathered them from the sides of the earth, Among them [are] blind and lame, Conceiving and travailing one — together, A great assembly — they turn back hither.
みよ我彼らを北の地よりひきかへり彼らを地の極より集めん彼らの中には瞽者 跛者 孕める婦 子を產みし婦ともに居る彼らは大なる群をなして此處にかへらん
9 With weeping they come in, And with supplications I bring them, I cause them to go unto streams of waters, In a right way — they stumble not in it, For I have been to Israel for a father, And Ephraim — My first-born [is] he.
彼ら悲泣來らん我かれらをして祈禱をもて來らしめ直くして蹶かざる途より水の流に歩みいたらしめん我はイスラエルの父にしてエフライムは我長子なればなり
10 Hear a word of Jehovah, O nations, And declare ye among isles afar off, and say: He who is scattering Israel doth gather him, And hath kept him as a shepherd [doth] his flock,
萬國の民よ汝らヱホバの言をきき之を遠き諸島に示していえへイスラエルを散せしものこれを聚め牧者のその群を守るが如く之を守らん
11 For Jehovah hath ransomed Jacob, And redeemed him from a hand stronger than he.
すなはちヱホバ、ヤコブを贖ひ彼等よりも強き者の手よりかれを救出したまへり
12 And they have come in, And have sung in the high place of Zion, And flowed unto the goodness of Jehovah, For wheat, and for new wine, and for oil, And for the young of the flock and herd, And their soul hath been as a watered garden, And they add not to grieve any more.
彼らは來てシオンの頂によばはりヱホバの賜ひし福なる麥と酒と油および若き羊と牛の爲に寄集はんその靈魂は灌ふ園のごとくならん彼らは重て愁ふること無るべし
13 Then rejoice doth a virgin in a chorus, Both young men and old men — together, And I have turned their mourning to joy, And have comforted them, And gladdened them above their sorrow,
その時童女は舞てたのしみ壯者と老者もろともに樂しまん我かれらの悲をかへて喜となしかれらの愁をさりてこれを慰さめん
14 And satisfied the soul of the priests [with] fatness, And My people with My goodness are satisfied, An affirmation of Jehovah.
われ膏をもて祭司の心を飫しめ我恩をもて我民に滿しめんとヱホバ言たまふ
15 Thus said Jehovah, A voice in Ramah is heard, wailing, weeping most bitter, Rachel is weeping for her sons, She hath refused to be comforted for her sons, because they are not.
ヱホバかくいひたまふ歎き悲みいたく憂ふる聲ラマに聞ゆラケルその兒子のために歎きその兒子のあらずなりしによりて慰をえず
16 Thus said Jehovah: Withhold thy voice from weeping, and thine eyes from tears, For there is a reward for thy work, An affirmation of Jehovah, And they have turned back from the land of the enemy.
ヱホバかくいひ給ふ汝の聲を禁て哭こと勿れ汝の目を禁て涙を流すこと勿れ汝の工に報あるべし彼らは其敵の地より歸らんとヱホバいひたまふ
17 And there is hope for thy latter end, An affirmation of Jehovah, And the sons have turned back [to] their border.
汝の後の日に望あり兒子等その境に歸らんとヱホバいひたまふ
18 I have surely heard Ephraim bemoaning himself, 'Thou hast chastised me, And I am chastised, as a heifer not taught, Turn me back, and I turn back, For thou [art] Jehovah my God.
われ固にエフライムのみづから歎くをきけり云く汝は我を懲しめたまふ我は軛に馴ざる犢のごとくに懲治を受たりヱホバよ汝はわが神なれば我を牽轉したまへ然ば我轉るべし
19 For after my turning back I repented, And after my being instructed I struck on the thigh, I have been ashamed, I have also blushed, For I have borne the reproach of my youth.
われ轉りし後に悔い敎を承しのちに我髀を撃つ我幼時の羞を身にもてば恥ぢかつ辱しめらるるなりと
20 A precious son is Ephraim to Me? A child of delights? For since My speaking against him, I do thoroughly remember him still, Therefore have My bowels been moved for him, I do greatly love him, An affirmation of Jehovah.
ヱホバいひたまふエフライムは我愛するところの子悦ぶところの子ならずや我彼にむかひてかたるごとに彼を念はざるを得ず是をもて我膓かれの爲に痛む我必ず彼を恤むべし
21 Set up for thee signs, make for thee heaps, Set thy heart to the highway, the way thou wentest, Turn back, O virgin of Israel, Turn back unto these thy cities.
汝のために指路號を置き汝のために柱をたてよ汝のゆける道なる大路に心をとめよイスラエルの童女よ歸れこの汝の邑々にかへれよ
22 Till when dost thou withdraw thyself, O backsliding daughter? For Jehovah hath prepared a new thing in the land, Woman doth compass man.
違ける女よ汝いつまで流蕩ふやヱホバ新しき事を地に創造らん女は男を抱くべし
23 Thus said Jehovah of Hosts, God of Israel, Still they say this word in the land of Judah, And in its cities, In My turning back [to] their captivity, Jehovah doth bless thee, habitation of righteousness, Mountain of holiness.
萬軍のヱホバ、イスラエルの神かくいひ給ふ我かの俘囚し者を返さん時人々復ユダの地とその邑々に於て此言をいはん義き居所よ聖き山よ願くはヱホバ汝を祝みたまへと
24 And dwelt in Judah have husbandmen, and in all its cities together, And they have journeyed in order.
ユダとその諸の邑々に農夫と群を牧ふもの偕に住はん
25 For I have satiated the weary soul, And every grieved soul I have filled.'
われ疲れたる靈魂を飫しめすべての憂ふる靈魂をなぐさむるなり
26 On this I have awaked, and I behold, and my sleep hath been sweet to me.
茲にわれ目を醒しみるに我眠は甘かりし
27 Lo, days are coming, an affirmation of Jehovah, And I have sown the house of Israel, And the house of Judah, With seed of man, and seed of beast.
ヱホバいひたまふ視よ我が人の種と畜の種とをイスラエルの家とユダの家とに播く日いたらん
28 And it hath been, as I watched over them to pluck up, And to break down, and to throw down, And to destroy, and to afflict; So do I watch over them to build, and to plant, An affirmation of Jehovah.
我彼らを拔き毀ち覆し滅し難さんとうかがひし如くまた彼らを建て植ゑんとうかがふべしとヱホバいひ給ふ
29 In those days they do not say any more: Fathers have eaten unripe fruit, And the sons' teeth are blunted.
その時彼らは父が酸き葡萄を食ひしによりて兒子の齒齪くと再びいはざるべし
30 But — each for his own iniquity doth die, Every man who is eating the unripe fruit, Blunted are his teeth.
人はおのおの自己の惡によりて死なん凡そ酸き葡萄をくらふ人はその齒齪く
31 Lo, days are coming, an affirmation of Jehovah, And I have made with the house of Israel And with the house of Judah a new covenant,
ヱホバいひたまふみよ我イスラエルの家とユダの家とに新しき契約を立つる日きたらん
32 Not like the covenant that I made with their fathers, In the day of My laying hold on their hand, To bring them out of the land of Egypt, In that they made void My covenant, And I ruled over them — an affirmation of Jehovah.
この契約は我彼らの先祖の手をとりてエジプトの地よりこれを導きいだせし日に立しところの如きにあらず我かれらを娶りたれども彼らはその我契約を破れりとヱホバいひたまふ
33 For this [is] the covenant that I make, With the house of Israel, after those days, An affirmation of Jehovah, I have given My law in their inward part, And on their heart I do write it, And I have been to them for God, And they are to me for a people.
然どかの日の後に我イスラエルの家に立んところの契約は此なり即ちわれ我律法をかれらの衷におきその心の上に錄さん我は彼らの神となり彼らは我民となるべしとヱホバいひたまふ
34 And they do not teach any more Each his neighbour, and each his brother, Saying, Know ye Jehovah, For they all know Me, from their least unto their greatest, An affirmation of Jehovah; For I pardon their iniquity, And of their sin I make mention no more.
人おのおの其隣とその兄弟に敎へて汝ヱホバを識と復いはじそは小より大にいたるまで悉く我をしるべければなりとヱホバいひたまふ我彼らの不義を赦しその罪をまた思はざるべし
35 Thus said Jehovah, Who is giving the sun for a light by day, The statutes of moon and stars for a light by night, Quieting the sea when its billows roar, Jehovah of Hosts [is] His name:
ヱホバかく言すなはち是日をあたへて晝の光となし月と星をさだめて夜の光となし海を激してその濤を鳴しむる者その名は萬軍のヱホバと言なり
36 If these statutes depart from before Me, An affirmation of Jehovah, Even the seed of Israel doth cease From being a nation before Me all the days.
ヱホバいひたまふもし此等の規律我前に廢らばイスラエルの子孫も我前に廢りて永遠も民たることを得ざるべし
37 Thus said Jehovah: If the heavens above be measured, And the foundations of earth below searched, Even I kick against all the seed of Israel, For all that they have done, An affirmation of Jehovah.
ヱホバかくいひたまふ若し上の天量ることを得下の地の基探ることをえば我またイスラエルのすべての子孫を其もろもろの行のために棄べしヱホバこれをいふ
38 Lo, days [are coming], an affirmation of Jehovah, And the city hath been built to Jehovah, From the tower of Hananeel to the gate of the corner.
ヱホバいひたまふ視よ此邑ハナネルの塔より隅の門までヱホバの爲に建つ日きたらん
39 And gone out again hath the measuring line Over-against it, unto the height of Gareb, And it hath compassed to Goah.
量繩ふたたび直ちにガレブの岡をこえゴアテの方に轉るべし
40 And all the valley of the carcases and of the ashes, And all the fields unto the brook Kidron, Unto the corner of the horse-gate eastward, [Are] holy to Jehovah, it is not plucked up, Nor is it thrown down any more to the age!
屍と灰の谷またケデロンの溪にいたるまでと東の方の馬の門の隅にいたるまでの諸の田地皆ヱホバの聖き處となり永遠におよぶまで再び拔れまた覆さるる事なかるべし
