Jeremiah 44
1 The word that hath been unto Jeremiah concerning all the Jews who are dwelling in the land of Egypt — who are dwelling in Migdol, and in Tahpanhes, and in Noph, and in the land of Pathros — saying,
エジプトの地に住るところのユダの人衆すなはちミグドル、タパネス、ノフ、パテロスの地に住る者の事につきてヱレミヤに臨みし言に曰く
2 'Thus said Jehovah of Hosts, God of Israel: Ye — ye have seen all the evil that I have brought in on Jerusalem, and on all the cities of Judah, and lo, they [are] a waste this day, and there is none dwelling in them,
萬軍のヱホバ、イスラエルの神かくいふ汝らは我ヱルサレムとユダの諸邑に降せしところの災をみたり視よこれらは今日すでに空曠となりて住む人なし
3 because of their wickedness that they have done, by provoking Me to anger, by going to make perfume, by serving other gods, that they knew not, they, ye, and your fathers.
こは彼ら惡をなして我を怒らせしによる即ちかれらは己も汝らも汝らの先祖等も識ざるところの他の神にゆきて香を焚き且これに奉へたり
4 'And I send unto you all my servants, the prophets, rising early and sending, saying: I pray you, do not this abomination that I have hated —
われ我僕なる預言者たちを汝らに遣し頻にこれを遣して請ふ汝らわが嫌ふところの此憎むべき事を行ふ勿れといはせけるに
5 and they have not hearkened nor inclined their ear, to turn back from their wickedness, not to make perfume to other gods,
彼ら聽かず耳を傾けず他の神に香を焚きてその惡を離れざりし
6 and poured out is My fury, and Mine anger, and it burneth in cities of Judah, and in streets of Jerusalem, and they are for a waste, for a desolation, as [at] this day.
是によりて我震怒とわが憤恨ユダの諸邑とヱルサレムの街にそそぎて之を焚たれば其等は今日のごとく荒れかつ傾圮たり
7 'And, now, thus said Jehovah of Hosts, God of Israel: Why are ye doing great evil unto your own souls, to cut off to you man and woman, infant and suckling, from the midst of Judah, so as not to leave to you a remnant:
萬軍の神イスラエルの神ヱホバいまかくいふ汝ら何なれば大なる惡をなして己の靈魂を害しユダの中より汝らの男と女と孩童と乳哺子を絕て一人も遺らざらしめんとするや
8 by provoking Me to anger by the works of your hands, by making perfume to other gods in the land of Egypt, whither ye are going in to sojourn, so as to cut yourselves off, and so as to your being for a reviling and for a reproach among all nations of the earth?
何なれば汝ら其手の行爲をもて我を怒らせ汝らが往て住ふところのエジプトの地に於て他の神に香を焚きて己の身を滅し地の萬國の中に呪詛となり凌辱とならんとするや
9 'Have ye forgotten the wickedness of your fathers, and the wickedness of the kings of Judah, and the wickedness of their wives, and your own wickedness, and the wickedness of your wives, that they have done in the land of Judah, and in streets of Jerusalem?
ユダの地とヱルサレムの街にて行ひし汝らの先祖等の惡ユダの王等の惡其妻等の惡および汝らの身の惡汝らの妻等の惡を汝ら忘れしや
10 They have not been humbled unto this day, nor have they been afraid, nor have they walked in My law, and in My statutes, that I have set before you and before your fathers.
彼らは今日にいたるまで悔いずまた畏れず汝らと汝らの先祖等の前に立たる我律法とわが典例に循ひて行まざるなり
11 'Therefore, thus said Jehovah of Hosts, God of Israel: Lo, I am setting my face against you for evil, even to cut off all Judah,
是故に萬軍のヱホバ、イスラエルの神かくいふ視よわれ面を汝らにむけて災を降しユダの人衆を悉く絕ん
12 and I have taken the remnant of Judah, who have set their faces to enter the land of Egypt to sojourn there, and they have all been consumed in the land of Egypt; they fall by sword, by famine they are consumed, from the least even unto the greatest, by sword and by famine they die, and they have been for an execration, for an astonishment, and for a reviling, and for a reproach.
又われエジプトの地にすまんとてその面をこれにむけて往しところの彼ユダの遺れる者を取らん彼らは皆滅されてエジプトの地に仆れん彼らは劍と饑饉に滅され微者も大者も劍と饑饉によりて死べし而して呪詛となり詫異となり罵詈となり凌辱とならん
13 'And I have seen after those dwelling in the land of Egypt, as I saw after Jerusalem, with sword, with famine, and with pestilence,
われヱルサレムを罰せし如く劍と饑饉と疫病をもてエジプトに住る者を罰すべし
14 and there is not an escaped and remaining one of the remnant of Judah, who are entering into the land of Egypt to sojourn there, even to turn back to the land of Judah, whither they are lifting up their soul to return to dwell, for they do not turn back, except those escaping.'
是をもてエジプトの地に往て彼處に住るところのユダの遺れる者の中に一人も逃れまたは遺りてその心にしたひて歸り住はんとねがふところのユダの地に歸るもの無るべし逃るる者の外には歸る者無るべし
15 And they answer Jeremiah — all the men who are knowing that their wives are making perfume to other gods, and all the women who are remaining, a great assembly, even all the people who are dwelling in the land of Egypt, in Pathros — saying:
是に於てその妻が香を他の神に焚しことを知れる人々および其處に立てる婦人等の大なる群衆並にエジプトの地のパテロスに住るところの民ヱレミヤに答へて云けるは
16 'The word that thou hast spoken unto us in the name of Jehovah — we are not hearkening unto thee;
汝がヱホバの名をもてわれらに述し言は我ら聽かじ
17 for we certainly do everything that hath gone out of our mouth, to make perfume to the queen of the heavens, and to pour out to her libations, as we have done, we, and our fathers, our kings, and our heads, in cities of Judah, and in streets of Jerusalem, and — we are satisfied with bread, and we are well, and evil we have not seen.
我らは必ず我らの口より出る言を行ひ我らが素なせし如く香を天后に焚きまた酒をその前に灌ぐべし即ちユダの諸邑とヱルサレムの街にて我らと我らの先祖等および我らの王等と我らの牧伯等の行ひし如くせん當時われらは糧に飽き福をえて災に遇ざりし
18 'And from the time we have ceased to make perfume to the queen of the heavens, and to pour out to her libations, we have lacked all, and by sword and by famine we have been consumed,
我ら天后に香を焚くことを止め酒をその前に灌がずなりし時より諸の物に乏しくなり劍と饑饉に滅されたり
19 and when we are making perfume to the queen of the heavens, and pouring out to her libations — without our husbands have we made for her cakes to idolize her, and to pour out to her libations?'
我らが天后に香を焚き酒をその前に灌ぐに方りて之に象りてパンを製り酒を灌ぎしは我らの夫等の許せし事にあらずや
20 And Jeremiah saith unto all the people, concerning the men and concerning the women, and concerning all the people who are answering him, saying:
ヱレミヤ即ち男女の諸の人衆および此言をもて答へたる諸の民にいひけるは
21 'The perfume that ye made in the cities of Judah, and in the streets of Jerusalem, ye, and your fathers, your kings, and your heads, and the people of the land, hath not Jehovah remembered it? yea, it cometh up on His heart.
ユダの諸邑とヱルサレムの街にて汝らと汝らの先祖等および汝等の王等と汝らの牧伯等および其地の民の香を焚しことはヱホバ之を憶えまた心に思ひたまふにあらずや
22 And Jehovah is not able any more to accept [you], because of the evil of your doings, because of the abominations that ye have done, and your land is for a waste, and for an astonishment, and for a reviling, without inhabitant, as [at] this day.
ヱホバは汝らの惡き爲のため汝らの憎むべき行の爲に再び忍ぶことをえせざりきこの故に汝らの地は今日のごとく荒地となり詫異となり呪詛となり住む人なき地となれり
23 'Because that ye have made perfume, and because ye have sinned against Jehovah, and have not hearkened to the voice of Jehovah, and in His law, and in His statutes, and in His testimonies ye have not walked, therefore hath this evil met you as [at] this day.'
汝ら香を焚きヱホバに罪を犯しヱホバの聲に聽したがはずその律法と憲法と證詞に循ひて行まざりしに由て今日のごとく此災汝らにおよべり
24 And Jeremiah saith unto all the people, and unto all the women, 'Hear ye a word of Jehovah, all Judah who [are] in the land of Egypt,
ヱレミヤまたすべての民と婦等にいひけるはエジプトの地に居るユダの子孫よヱホバの言をきけ
25 Thus spake Jehovah of Hosts, God of Israel, saying: Ye and your wives both speak with your mouth, and with your hands have fulfilled, saying: We certainly execute our vows that we have vowed, to make perfume to the queen of the heavens, and to pour out to her libations, ye do certainly establish your vows, and certainly execute your vows.
萬軍のヱホバ、イスラエルの神かくいひたまふ汝らと汝らの妻等は口をもていひ手をもて成し我ら香を天后に焚き酒を灌ぎて立しところの誓を必ず成就んといふ汝ら必ず誓をたてかならず其誓を成就んとす
26 'Therefore, hear ye a word of Jehovah, all Judah who are dwelling in the land of Egypt: Lo, I — I have sworn by My great name, said Jehovah, My name is no more proclaimed by the mouth of any man of Judah, saying, Live doth the Lord Jehovah — in all the land of Egypt.
この故にエジプトの地に住るユダの人々よヱホバの言をきけヱホバいひたまふわれ我大なる名を指て誓ふエジプトの全地にユダの人々一人もその口に主ヱホバは活くといひて再び我名を稱ふることなきにいたらん
27 Lo, I am watching over them for evil, and not for good, and consumed have been all the men of Judah who [are] in the land of Egypt, by sword and by famine, till their consumption.
視よわれ彼らをうかがはん是福をあたふる爲にあらず禍をくださん爲なりエジプトの地に居るユダの人々は劍と饑饉に滅びて絕るにいたらん
28 'And the escaped of the sword turn back out of the land of Egypt to the land of Judah, few in number, and known have all the remnant of Judah who are coming into the land of Egypt to sojourn there, whose word is established, Mine or theirs.
然ど劍を逃るる僅少の者はエジプトの地を出てユダの地に歸らん又エジプトの地にゆきて彼處に寄寓れるユダの遺れる者はその立ところの言は我のなるか彼らのなるかを知るにいたるべし
29 'And this [is] to you the sign — an affirmation of Jehovah — that I am seeing after you in this place, so that ye know that My words are certainly established against you for evil;
ヱホバいひ給ふわがこの處にて汝らを罰する兆は是なり我かくして我汝らに禍をくださんといひし言の必ず立ことを知しめん
30 Thus said Jehovah, Lo, I am giving Pharaoh-Hophra king of Egypt into the hand of his enemies, and into the hand of those seeking his life, as I have given Zedekiah king of Judah into the hand of Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon, his enemy, and who is seeking his life.'
すなはちヱホバかくいひたまふ視よわれユダの王ゼデキヤを其生命を索むる敵なるバビロンの王ネブカデネザルの手に付せしが如くエジプトの王パロホフラを其敵の手その生命を索むる者の手に付さん
