< Jeremiah 45 >

1 The word that Jeremiah the prophet hath spoken unto Baruch son of Neriah, in his writing these words on a book from the mouth of Jeremiah, in the fourth year of Jehoiakim son of Josiah king of Judah, saying:
ユダの王ヨシヤの子ヱホヤキムの四年ネリヤの子バルクが此等の言をヱレミヤの口にしたがひて書に錄せしとき預言者ヱレミヤこれに語りていひけるは
2 'Thus said Jehovah, God of Israel, concerning thee, O Baruch:
バルクよイスラエルの神ヱホバ汝にかくいひ給ふ
3 'Thou hast said, Woe to me, now, for Jehovah hath added sorrow to my pain, I have been wearied with my sighing, and rest I have not found.
汝曾ていへり嗚呼我は禍なるかなヱホバ我憂に悲を加へたまへり我は歎きて疲れ安きをえずと
4 Thus dost thou say unto him: Thus said Jehovah: Lo, that which I have built I am throwing down, and that which I have planted I am plucking up, even the whole land itself.
汝かく彼に語れヱホバかくいひたまふ視よわれ我建しところの者を毀ち我植しところの者を拔ん是この全地なり
5 And thou — thou seekest for thee great things — do not seek, for lo, I am bringing in evil on all flesh — an affirmation of Jehovah — and I have given to thee thy life for a spoil, in all places whither thou goest.'
汝己れの爲に大なる事を求むるかこれを求むる勿れ視よわれ災をすべての民に降さん然ど汝の生命は我汝のゆかん諸の處にて汝の掠物とならしめんとヱホバいひたまふ
