エゼキエル書 22
1 ヱホバの言われに臨みて言ふ
And there is a word of Jehovah unto me, saying,
2 人の子よ汝鞫かんとするや此血を流すところの邑を鞫かんとするや汝これにその諸の憎むべき事を示して
'And thou, son of man, dost thou judge? dost thou judge the city of blood? then thou hast caused it to know all its abominations,
3 言へ主ヱホバかく言ふ己の中に血を流してその罰せらるる時を來らせ己の中に偶像を作りてその身を汚すところの邑よ
and thou hast said: Thus said the Lord Jehovah: The city is shedding blood in its midst, For the coming in of its time, And it hath made idols on it for defilement.
4 汝はその流せる血によりて罪を得その作れる偶像をもて身を汚し汝の日を近づかせすでに汝の年にいたれり是故に我汝を國々の嘲とならしめ萬國の笑とならしむべし
By thy blood that thou hast shed thou hast been guilty, And by thine idols that thou hast made thou hast been defiled, And thou causest thy days to draw near, And art come in unto thine years, Therefore I have given thee a reproach to nations, And a derision to all the lands.
5 汝に近き者も遠き者も汝が名の汚れたると混亂の多きとを笑はん
The near and the far-off from thee scoff at thee, O defiled of name — abounding in trouble.
6 視よイスラエルの君等各その力にしたがひて血を流さんと汝の中にをる
Lo, princes of Israel — each according to his arm Have been in thee to shed blood.
7 彼ら汝の中にて父母を賤め汝の中にて他國の人を虐げ汝の中にて孤兒と寡婦を惱ますなり
Father and mother made light of in thee, To a sojourner they dealt oppressively in thy midst, Fatherless and widow they oppressed in thee.
8 汝わが聖き物を賤めわが安息日を汚す
My holy things thou hast despised, And My sabbaths thou hast polluted.
9 人を譖づる者血を流さんと汝の中にあり人汝の中にて山の上に食をなし汝の中にて邪淫をおこなひ
Men of slander have been in thee to shed blood, And on the mountains they have eaten in thee, Wickedness they have done in thy midst.
10 汝の中にてその父の妻に交り汝の中にて月經のさはりに穢れたる婦女を犯す
The nakedness of a father hath one uncovered in thee, The defiled of impurity they humbled in thee.
11 又汝の中にその鄰の妻と憎むべき事をおこなふものあり邪淫をおこなひてその嫁を犯すものありその父の女なる己の姊妹を犯すものあり
And each with the wife of his neighbour hath done abomination, And each his daughter-in-law hath defiled through wickedness, And each his sister, his father's daughter, hath humbled in thee.
12 人汝の中にて賄賂をうけて血を流すことをなすなり汝は利と息を取り汝の隣の物を掠め取り又我を忘る主ヱホバこれを言ふ
A bribe they have taken in thee to shed blood, Usury and increase thou hast taken, And cuttest off thy neighbour by oppression, And Me thou hast forgotten, An affirmation of the Lord Jehovah!
13 見よ我汝が掠めとる事をなし且血を汝の中に流すによりて我手を拍つ
And lo, I have smitten My hand, Because of thy dishonest gain that thou hast gained, And for thy blood that hath been in thy midst.
14 我が汝を攻る日には汝の心堅く立ち汝の手強くあることを得んや我ヱホバこれを言ひこれをなすなり
Doth thy heart stand — are thy hands strong, For the days that I am dealing with thee? I, Jehovah, have spoken and have done [it].
15 我汝を異邦の中に散し國々の中に播き全く汝の汚穢を取のぞくべし
And I have scattered thee among nations, And have spread thee out among lands, And consumed thy uncleanness out of thee.
16 汝は己の故によりて異邦人の目に汚れたる者と見えん而して汝我のヱホバなるを知べし
And thou hast been polluted in thyself Before the eyes of nations, And thou hast known that I [am] Jehovah.'
17 ヱホバの言また我にのぞみて言ふ
And there is a word of Jehovah unto me, saying, 'Son of man,
18 人の子よイスラエルの家は我に渣滓のごとくなれり彼等は凡て爐の中の銅錫鐵鉛のごとし彼らは銀の渣滓のごとく成れり
The house of Israel hath been to Me for dross, All of them [are] brass, and tin, and iron, and lead, In the midst of a furnace — dross hath silver been,
19 此故に主ヱホバかく言ふ汝らは皆渣滓となりたれば視よ我なんぢらをヱルサレムの中に集む
Therefore, thus said the Lord Jehovah: Because of your all becoming dross, Therefore, lo, I am gathering you unto the midst of Jerusalem,
20 人の銀銅鐵鉛錫を爐の中に集め火を吹かけて鎔すが如く我怒と憤をもて汝らを集め入て鎔すべし
A gathering of silver, and brass, and iron, and lead, and tin, Unto the midst of a furnace — to blow on it fire, to melt it, So do I gather in Mine anger and in My fury, And I have let rest, and have melted you.
21 即ち我汝らを集め吾怒の火を汝らに吹かけん汝らはその中に鎔ん
And I have heaped you up, And blown on you in the fire of My wrath, And ye have been melted in its midst.
22 銀の爐の中に鎔るがごとくに汝らはその中に鎔け我ヱホバが怒を汝らに斟ぎしを知にいたらん
As the melting of silver in the midst of a furnace, So are ye melted in its midst, And ye have known that I, Jehovah, I have poured out My fury upon you.'
23 ヱホバの言われに臨みて言ふ
And there is a word of Jehovah unto me, saying:
24 人の子よ是に言ふべし汝は怒の日に日も照らず雨もふらざる地なり
'Son of man, say to it, Thou [art] a land, It [is] not cleansed nor rained on in a day of indignation.
25 預言者等の徒黨その中にありその食を撕くところの吼ゆる獅子のごとくに彼らは靈魂を呑み財寶と貴き物を取り寡婦をその中に多くす
A conspiracy of its prophets [is] in its midst, as a roaring lion tearing prey; The soul they have devoured, Wealth and glory they have taken, Its widows have multiplied in its midst.
26 その祭司等はわが法を犯しわが聖き物を汚し聖きと聖からざるとの區別をなさず潔きと穢たるとの差別を敎へずその目を掩ひてわが安息日を顧みず我はかれらの中に汚さる
Its priests have wronged My law, And they pollute My holy things, Between holy and common they have not made separation, And between the unclean and the clean they have not made known, And from my sabbaths they have hidden their eyes, And I am pierced in their midst.
27 その中にある公伯等は食を撕くところの豺狼のごとくにして血をながし靈魂を滅し物を掠めとらんとす
Its princes in its midst [are] as wolves, Tearing prey, to shed blood, to destroy souls, For the sake of gaining dishonest gain.
28 その預言者等は灰砂をもて是等を塗り虛浮物を見僞の占卜を人になしヱホバの告あらざるに主ヱホバかく言たまふと言ふなり
And its prophets have daubed for them with chalk, Seeing a vain thing, and divining for them a lie, Saying, 'Thus said the Lord Jehovah:' And Jehovah hath not spoken.
29 國の民は暴虐をおこなひ奪ふ事をなし難める者と貧き者を掠め道に反きて他國の人を虐ぐ
The people of the land have used oppression, And have taken plunder violently away, And humble and needy have oppressed, And the sojourner oppressed — without judgment.
30 我一箇の人の國のために石垣を築き我前にあたりてその破壞處に立ち我をして之を滅さしめざるべき者を彼等の中に尋れども得ざるなり
And I seek of them a man making a fence, And standing in the breach before Me, In behalf of the land — not to destroy it, And I have not found.
31 主ヱホバいふ是故に我わが怒を彼らに斟ぎわが憤の火をもて彼らを滅し彼らの行爲をその首に報ゆ
And I pour out on them mine indignation, By fire of My wrath I have consumed them, Their way on their own head I have put, An affirmation of the Lord Jehovah!'
