Micah 6
1 Hear, I pray you, that which Jehovah is saying: 'Rise — strive thou with the mountains, And cause thou the hills to hear thy voice.'
請ふ汝らヱホバの宣まふところを聽け 汝起あがりて山の前に辨爭へ 崗に汝の聲を聽しめよ
2 Hear, O mountains, the strife of Jehovah, Ye strong ones — foundations of earth! For a strife [is] to Jehovah, with His people, And with Israel He doth reason.
山々よ地の易ることなき基よ 汝らヱホバの辨爭を聽け ヱホバその民と辨爭を爲しイスラエルと論ぜん
3 O My people, what have I done to thee? And what — have I wearied thee? Testify against Me.
我民よ我何を汝になししや 何において汝を疲労たるや 我にむかひて證せよ
4 For I brought thee up from the land of Egypt, And from the house of servants I have ransomed thee, And I send before thee Moses, Aaron, and Miriam.
我はエジプトの國より汝を導きのぼり奴隷の家より汝を贖ひいだしモーセ、アロンおよびミリアムを遣して汝に先だたしめたり
5 O My people, remember, I pray you, What counsel did Balak king of Moab, What answer him did Balaam son of Beor, (From Shittim unto Gilgal, ) In order to know the righteous acts of Jehovah.'
我民よ請ふモアブの王バラクが謀りし事およびベオルの子バラムがこれに應へし事を念ひシツテムよりギルガルにいたるまでの事等を念へ 然らば汝ヱホバの正義を知ん
6 With what do I come before Jehovah? Do I bow to God Most High? Do I come before Him with burnt-offerings? With calves — sons of a year?
我ヱホバの前に何をもちゆきて高き神を拜せん 燔祭の物および當歳の犢をもてその御前にいたるべきか
7 Is Jehovah pleased with thousands of rams? With myriads of streams of oil? Do I give my first-born [for] my transgression? The fruit of my body [for] the sin of my soul?
ヱホバ數千の牡羊萬流の油を悦びたまはんか 我愆のためにわが長子を獻げんか 我靈魂の罪のために我身の産を獻げんか
8 He hath declared to thee, O man, what [is] good; Yea, what is Jehovah requiring of thee, Except — to do judgment, and love kindness, And lowly to walk with thy God?
人よ彼さきに善事の何なるを汝に告たり ヱホバの汝に要めたまふ事は唯正義を行ひ憐憫を愛し謙遜りて汝の神とともに歩む事ならずや
9 A voice of Jehovah to the city calleth, And wisdom doth fear Thy name, Hear ye the rod, and Him who appointed it.
ヱホバの聲邑にむかひて呼はる 智慧ある者はなんぢの名を仰がん 汝ら笞杖および之をおくらんと定めし者に聽け
10 Are there yet [in] the house of the wicked Treasures of wickedness, And the abhorred scanty ephah?
惡人の家に猶惡財ありや 詛ふべき縮小たる升ありや
11 Do I reckon [it] pure with balances of wickedness? And with a bag of deceitful stones?
我もし正からざる權衡を用ひ袋に僞の碼子をいれおかば爭で潔からんや
12 Whose rich ones have been full of violence, And its inhabitants have spoken falsehood, And their tongue [is] deceitful in their mouth.
その富る人は強暴にて充ち其居民は謊言を言ひその舌は口の中にて欺くことを爲す
13 And I also, I have begun to smite thee, To make desolate, because of thy sins.
是をもて我も汝を撃て重傷を負はせ汝の罪のために汝を滅す
14 Thou — thou eatest, and thou art not satisfied, And thy pit [is] in thy midst, And thou removest, and dost not deliver, And that which thou deliverest, to a sword I give.
汝は食ふとも飽ず腹はつねに空ならん 汝は移すともつひに拯ふことを得じ 汝が拯ひし者は我これを劍に付すべし
15 Thou — thou sowest, and thou dost not reap, Thou — thou treadest the olive, And thou pourest not out oil, And new wine — and thou drinkest not wine.
汝は種播とも刈ることあらず 橄欖を踐ともその油を身に抹ることあらず 葡萄を踐ともその酒を飮むことあらじ
16 And kept habitually are the statutes of Omri, And all the work of the house of Ahab, And ye do walk in their counsels, For My giving thee for a desolation, And its inhabitants for a hissing, And the reproach of My people ye do bear!
汝らはオムリの法度を守りアハブの家の一切の行爲を行ひて彼等の謀計に遵ふ 是は我をして汝を荒さしめ且その居民を胡盧となさしめんが爲なり 汝らはわが民の恥辱を任べし
