エゼキエル書 16

1 ヱホバの言また我にのぞみて言ふ

And the word of the Lord came to me, saying:

2 人の子よヱルサレムに其憎むべき事等を示して

Son of man, make known to Jerusalem her abominations.

3 言ふべし主ヱホバ、ヱルサレムに斯いひたまふ汝の起本汝の誕生はカナンの地なり汝の父はアモリ人汝の母はヘテ人なり

And thou shalt say: Thus saith the Lord God to Jerusalem: Thy root, and thy nativity is of the land of Chanaan, thy father was an Amorrhite, and thy mother a Cethite.

4 汝の誕生を言んに汝の生れし日に汝の臍帶を斷ことなく又水にて汝を洗ひ潔むることなく鹽をもて汝を擦ることなく又布に裹むことなかりき

And when thou wast born, in the day of thy nativity thy navel wits not cut, neither wast thou washed with water for thy health, nor salted with salt, nor swaddled with clouts.

5 一人も汝を憐み見憫をもて是等の事の一をも汝になせし者なし汝の生れたる日に人汝の生命を忌て汝を野原に棄たり

No eye had pity on thee to do any of these things for thee, out of compassion to thee: but thou wast cast out upon the face of the earth in the abjection of thy soul, in the day that thou wast born.

6 我汝のかたはらを通りし時汝が血の中にをりて踐るるを見汝が血の中にある時汝に生よと言り即ち我なんぢが血の中にある時に汝に生よといへり

And passing by thee, I saw that thou wast trodden under foot in thy own blood. and I said to thee when thou wast in thy blood: Live: I have said to thee: Live in thy blood.

7 我野の百卉のごとくに汝を増して千萬となせり汝は生長て大きくなり美しき姿となるにいたり乳は堅くなり髮は長たりしが衣なくして裸なりき

I caused thee to multiply as the bud of the field: and thou didst increase and grow great, and advancedst, and camest to woman’s ornament: thy breasts were fashioned, and thy hair grew: and thou wast naked, and full of confusion.

8 茲に我汝の傍を通りて汝を見に今は汝の時汝の愛せらるべき時なりければ我衣服の裾をもて汝を覆ひ汝の恥るところを蔽し而して汝に誓ひ汝に契約をたてたり汝すなはち吾所屬となれり主ヱホバこれを言ふ

And I passed by thee, and saw thee: and behold thy time was the time of lovers: and I spread my garment over thee, and covered thy ignominy. And I swore to thee, and I entered into a covenant with thee, saith the Lord God: and thou becamest mine.

9 斯て我水をもてなんぢを洗ひ汝の血を滌ぎおとして膏を汝にぬり

And I washed thee with water, and cleansed away thy blood from thee: and I anointed thee with oil.

10 文繡あるものを着せ皮の鞋を穿たしめ細布を蒙らせ絹をもて汝の身を罩めり

And I clothed thee with embroidery, and shed thee with violet coloured shoes: and I girded thee about with fine linen, and clothed thee with fine garments.

11 而して飾物をもて汝をかざり腕環をなんぢの手にはめ金索を汝の項にかけしめ

I decked thee also with ornaments, and put bracelets on thy hands, and a chain about thy neck.

12 鼻には鼻環 耳には耳環 首には華美なる冠冕をほどこせり

And I put a jewel upon thy forehead and earrings in thy ears, and a beautiful crown upon thy head.

13 汝すなはち金銀をもて身を飾り細布と絹および文繡をその衣服となし麥粉と蜜と油とを食へり汝は甚だ美しくして遂に榮えて王の權勢に進みいたる

And thou wast adorned with gold, and silver, and wast clothed with fine linen, and embroidered work, and many colours: thou didst eat fine hour, and honey, and oil, and wast made exceeding beautiful: and wast advanced to be a queen.

14 汝の美貌のために汝の名は國々にひろまれり是わが汝にほどこせしわれの飾物によりて汝の美麗極りたればなり主ヱホバこれを言ふ

And thy renown went forth among the nations for thy beauty: for thou wast perfect through my beauty, which I had put upon thee, saith the Lord God.

15 然るに汝その美麗を恃み汝の名によりて姦淫をおこなひ凡て其傍を過る者と縱恣に姦淫をなしたり是その人の所屬となる

But trusting in thy beauty, thou playedst the harlot because of thy renown, and thou hast prostituted thyself to every passenger, to be his.

16 汝おのれの衣服をとりて崇邱を彩り作りその上に姦淫をおこなへり是爲べからず有べからざる事なり

And taking of thy garments thou hast made thee high places sewed together on each side: and hast played the harlot upon them, as hath not been done before, nor shall be hereafter.

17 汝はわが汝にあたへし金銀の飾の品を取り男の像を造りて之と姦淫をおこなひ

And thou tookest thy beautiful vessels, of my gold, and my silver, which I gave thee, and thou madest thee images of men, and hast committed fornication with them.

18 汝の繡衣を取りて之に纒ひ吾の膏と香をその前に陳へ

And thou tookest thy garments of divers colours, and coveredst them: and settest my oil and my sweet incense before them.

19 亦わが汝にあたへし我の食物我が用ひて汝をやしなふところの麥粉油および蜜を其前に陳へて馨しき香氣となせり是事ありしと主ヱホバいひ給ふ

And my bread which I gave thee, the fine flour, and oil, and honey, wherewith I fed thee, thou hast set before them for a sweet odour; and it was done, saith the Lord God.

20 汝またおのれの我に生たる男子女子をとりてこれをその像にそなへて食はしむ汝が姦淫なほ小き事なるや

And thou hast taken thy sons, and thy daughters, whom thou hast borne to me: and best sacrificed the same to them to be devoured. Is thy fornication small?

21 汝わが子等を殺し亦火の中を通らしめてこれに献ぐ

Thou hast sacrificed and given my children to them, consecrating them by fire.

22 汝その諸の憎むべき事とその姦淫とをおこなふに當りて汝が若かりし日に衣なくして裸なりしことおよび汝が血のうちにをりて蹈れしことを想はざるなり

And after all thy abominations, and fornications, thou hast not remembered the days of thy youth, when thou wast naked, and full of confusion, trodden under foot in thy own blood.

23 主ヱホバまた言たまふ汝は禍なるかな禍なるかな

And it came to pass after all thy wickedness (woe, woe to thee, saith the Lord God)

24 汝その諸の惡をおこなひし後街衢街衢に樓をしつらひ臺を造り

That thou didst also build thee a common stew, and madest thee a brothel house in every street.

25 また路の辻々に臺をつくりて汝の美麗を汚辱むることを爲し凡て傍を過るところの者に足をひらきて大に姦淫をおこなふ

At every head of the way thou hast set up a sign of thy prostitution: and hast made thy beauty to be abominable: and hast prostituted thyself to every one that passed by, and hast multiplied thy fornications.

26 汝かの肉の大なる汝の隣人エジプトの人々と姦淫をおこなひ大に姦淫をなして我を怒らせたれば

And thou hast committed fornication with the Egyptians thy neighbours, men of large bodies, and hast multiplied thy fornications to provoke me.

27 我手を汝の上にのべて汝のたまはる分を減し彼の汝を惡み汝の淫なる行爲を羞るところのペリシテ人の女等の心に汝をまかせたり

Behold, I will stretch out my hand upon thee, and will take away thy justification: and I will deliver thee up to the will of the daughters of the Philistines that hate thee, that are ashamed of thy wicked way.

28 然るに汝は厭ことなければ亦アツスリヤの人々と姦淫をおこなひしが之と姦淫をおこなひたるも尚厭ことなかりき

Thou hast also committed fornication with the Assyrians, because thou wast not yet satisfied: and after thou hadst played the harlot with them, even so thou wast not contented.

29 汝また大に姦淫をおこなひてカナンの國カルデヤに迄およびしが是にても尚厭ことなし

Thou hast also multiplied thy fornications in the land of Chanaan with the Chaldeans: and neither so wast then satisfied.

30 主ヱホバいひたまふ汝の心如何に戀煩ふにや汝この諸の事を爲り是氣隨なる遊女の行爲なり

Wherein shall I cleanse thy heart, saith the Lord God: seeing thou dost all these the works of a shameless prostitute?

31 汝道の辻々に樓をしつらひ衢々に臺を造りしが金錢を輕んじたれば娼妓のごとくならざりき

Because thou hast built thy brothel house at the head of every way, and thou hast made thy high place in every street: and wast not as a harlot that by disdain enhanceth her price,

32 夫淫婦はその夫のほかに他人と通ずるなり

But as an adulteress, that bringeth in strangers over her husband.

33 人は凡て娼妓に物を贈るなるに汝はその諸の戀人に物をおくり且汝と姦淫せんとて四方より汝に來る者に報金を與ふ

Gifts are given to all harlots: but thou hast given hire to all thy lovers, and thou hast given them gifts to come to thee from every side, to commit fornication with thee.

34 汝は姦淫をおこなふに當りて他の婦と反す即ち人汝を戀求むるにあらざるなり汝金錢を人にあたへて人金錢を汝にあたへざるは是その相反するところなり

And it hath happened in thee contrary to the custom of women in thy fornications, and after thee there shall be no such fornication: for in that thou gavest rewards, and didst not take rewards, the contrary hath been done in thee.

35 然ば娼妓よヱホバの言を聽け

Therefore, O harlot, hear the word of the Lord.

36 主ヱホバかく言たまふ汝金銀を撒散し且汝の戀人と姦淫して汝の恥處を露したるに由り又汝の憎むべき諸の偶像と汝が之にささげたる汝の子等の血の故により

Thus saith the Lord God: Because thy money hath been poured out, and thy shame discovered through thy fornications with thy lovers, and with the idols of thy abominations, by the blood of thy children whom thou gavest them:

37 視よ我汝が交れる諸の戀人および凡て汝が戀たる者並に凡て汝が惡みたる者を集め四方よりかれらを汝の所に集め汝の恥處を彼らに現さん彼ら汝の恥處を悉く見るべし

Behold, I will gather together all thy lovers with whom thou hast taken pleasure, and all whom thou hast loved, with all whom thou hast hated: and I will gather them together against thee on every side, and will discover thy shame in their sight, and they shall see all thy nakedness.

38 我姦淫を爲せる婦および血をながせる婦を鞫くがごとくに汝を鞫き汝をして忿怒と嫉妬の血とならしむべし

And I will judge thee as adulteresses, and they that shed blood are judged: and I will give thee blood in fury and jealousy.

39 我汝を彼等の手に付せば彼等汝の樓を毀ち汝の臺を倒しなんぢの衣服を褫取り汝の美しき飾を奪ひ汝をして衣服なからしめ裸にならしむべし

And I will deliver thee into their hands, and they shall destroy thy brothel house, and throw down thy stews: and they shall strip thee of thy garments, and shall take away the vessels of thy beauty: and leave thee naked, and full of disgrace.

40 彼等群衆をひきゐて汝の所にのぼり石をもて汝を撃ち劍をもて汝を切さき

And they shall bring upon thee a multitude, and they shall stone thee with stones, and shall slay thee with their swords.

41 火をもて汝の家を焚き多くの婦女の目の前にて汝を鞫かん斯われ汝をして姦淫を止しむべし汝は亦ふたたび金錢をあたふることなからん

And they shall burn thy houses with fire, and shall execute judgments upon thee in the sight of many women: and thou shalt cease from fornication, and shalt give no hire any more.

42 我ここに於て汝に對するわが怒を息め汝にかかはるわが嫉妬を去り心をやすんじて復怒らざらん

And my indignation shall rest in thee: and my jealousy shall depart from thee, and I will cease and be angry no more.

43 主ヱホバいひたまふ汝その若かりし日の事を記憶えずしてこの諸の事をもて我を怒らせたれば視よ我も汝の行ふところを汝の首に報ゆべし汝その諸の憎むべき事の上に此惡事をなしたるにあらざるなり

Because thou hast not remembered the days of thy youth, but hast provoked me in all these things: wherefore I also have turned thy ways upon thy head, saith the Lord God, and I have not done according to thy wicked deeds in all thy abominations.

44 視よ諺語をもちふる者みな汝を指てこの諺を用ひ言ん母のごとくに女も然りと

Behold every one that useth a common proverb, shall use this against thee, saying: As the mother was, so also is her daughter.

45 汝の母はその夫と子女を棄たり汝はその女なり汝の姉妹はその夫と子女を棄たり汝はその姉妹なり汝の母はヘテ人汝の父はアモリ人なり

Thou art thy mother’s daughter, that cast off her husband, and her children: and thou art the sister of thy sisters, who cast off their husbands, and their children: your mother was a Cethite, and your father an Amorrhite.

46 汝の姉はサマリヤなり彼その女子等とともに汝の左に住む汝の妹はソドムなり彼その女子等とともに汝の右に住む

And thy elder sister is Samaria, she and her daughters that dwell at thy left hand: and thy younger sister that dwelleth at thy right hand is Sodom, and her daughters.

47 汝は只少しく彼らの道に歩み彼らの憎むべきところの事等を行ひしのみにあらず汝の爲る事は皆かれらのよりも惡かりき

But neither hast thou walked in their ways, nor hast thou done a little less than they according to their wickednesses: thou hast done almost more wicked things than they in all thy ways.

48 主ヱホバ言たまふ我は活く汝の妹ソドムと其女子らが爲しところは汝とその女子らが爲しところの如くはあらざりき

As I live, saith the Lord God, thy sister Sodom herself, and her daughters, have not done as thou hast done, and thy daughters.

49 汝の妹ソドムの罪は是なり彼は傲り食物に飽きその女子らとともに安泰にをり而して難める者と貧しき者を助けざりき

Behold this was the iniquity of Sodom thy sister, pride, fulness of bread, and abundance, and the idleness of her, and of her daughters: and they did not put forth their hand to the needy, and to the poor.

50 かれらは傲りわが前に憎むべき事をなしたれば我見てかれらを掃ひ除けり

And they were lifted up, and committed abominations before me: and I took them away as thou hast seen.

51 サマリヤは汝の罪の半分ほども罪を犯さざりき汝は憎むべき事等を彼らよりも多く行ひ増し汝の爲たる諸の憎むべき事のために汝の姉妹等をして義きが如くならしめたり

And Samaria committed not half thy sins: but thou hast surpassed them with thy crimes, and hast justified thy sisters by all thy abominations which thou hast done.

52 然ば汝が曾てその姉妹等の蒙るべき者と定めたるところの恥辱を汝もまた蒙れよ汝が彼等よりも多くの憎むべき事をなしたるその罪の爲に彼等は汝よりも義くなれり然ば汝も辱を受け恥を蒙れ是は汝その姉妹等を義き者となしたればなり

Therefore do thou also bear thy confusion, thou that hast surpassed thy sisters with thy sins, doing more wickedly than they: for they are justified above thee, therefore be thou also confounded, and bear thy shame, thou that hast justified thy sisters.

53 我ソドムとその女等の俘囚をかへしサマリヤとその女等の俘囚をかへさん時に其と同じ擄はれたる汝の俘囚人を歸し

And I will bring back and restore them by bringing back Sodom, with her daughters, and by bringing back Samaria, and her daughters: and I will bring those that return of thee in the midst of them.

54 汝をして恥を蒙らしめ汝が凡て爲たるところの事を羞しむべし汝かく彼らの慰とならん

That thou mayest bear thy shame, and mayest be confounded in all that thou hast done, comforting them.

55 汝の姉妹ソドムとその女子等は舊の樣に歸りサマリヤとその女子等は舊の樣に歸らん又汝と汝の女子等も舊の樣にかへるべし

And thy sister Sodom and her daughters shall return to their ancient state: and Samaria and her daughters shall return to their ancient state: and thou and thy daughters shall return to your ancient state.

56 汝はその驕傲れる日には汝の姉妹ソドムの事を口に述ざりき

And Sodom thy sister was not heard of in thy mouth, in the day of thy pride,

57 汝の惡の露れし時まで即ちスリアの女子等と凡て汝の周圍の者ペリシテ人の女等が四方より汝を嬲りて辱しめし時まで汝は是のごとくなりき

Before thy malice was laid open: as it is at this time, making thee a reproach of the daughters of Syria, and of all the daughters of Palestine round about thee, that encompass thee on all sides.

58 ヱホバいひたまふ汝の淫なる行爲と汝のもろもろの憎むべき事とは汝みづからこれを身に負ふなり

Thou hast borne thy wickedness, and thy disgrace, saith the Lord God.

59 主ヱホバかく言たまふ誓言を輕んじて契約をやぶりたるところの汝には我汝の爲るところにしたがひて爲べし

For thus saith the Lord God: I will deal with thee, as thou hast despised the oath, in breaking the covenant:

60 我汝の若かりし日に汝になせし契約を記憶え汝と限りなき契約をたてん

And I will remember my covenant with thee in the days of thy youth: and I will establish with thee an everlasting covenant.

61 汝その姉妹の汝より大なる者と小き者とを得る時にはおのれの行爲をおぼえて羞ん彼等は汝の契約に屬する者にあらざれども我かれらを汝にあたへて女となさしむべし

And thou shalt remember thy ways, and be ashamed: when thou shalt receive thy sisters, thy elder and thy younger: and I will give them to thee for daughters, but not by thy covenant.

62 我汝と契約をたてん汝すなはち吾のヱホバなるを知にいたらん

And I will establish my covenant with thee: and thou shalt know that I am the Lord,

63 我なんぢの凡て行ひしところの事を赦す時には汝憶えて羞ぢその恥辱のために再び口を開くことなかるべし主ヱホバこれを言ふ

That thou mayest remember, and be confounded, and mayest no more open thy mouth because of thy confusion, when I shall be pacified toward thee for all that thou hast done, saith the Lord God.
