< エゼキエル書 26 >
1 十一年の月の首の日にヱホバの言我にのぞみて言ふ
In the eleventh year, in the first of the month, the LORD’s word came to me, saying,
2 人の子よツロはヱルサレムの事につきて言り嗚呼心地よし諸の國民の門破る是我に移るならん我は豐滿になるべし彼は荒はてたりと
“Son of man, because Tyre has said against Jerusalem, ‘Aha! She is broken! She who was the gateway of the peoples has been returned to me. I will be replenished, now that she is laid waste;’
3 是故に主ヱホバかく言たまふツロよ我汝を攻め海のその波濤を起すが如く多くの國人を汝に攻きたらしむべし
therefore the Lord GOD says, ‘Behold, I am against you, Tyre, and will cause many nations to come up against you, as the sea causes its waves to come up.
4 彼らツロの石墻を毀ちその櫓を倒さん我その塵を拂ひ去りて是を乾ける磐と爲べし
They will destroy the walls of Tyre, and break down her towers. I will also scrape her dust from her, and make her a bare rock.
5 是は海の中の網を張る處とならん我これを言ばなりと主ヱホバいひたまふ是は諸の國人に掠めらるべし
She will be a place for the spreading of nets in the middle of the sea; for I have spoken it,’ says the Lord GOD. ‘She will become plunder for the nations.
6 その野にをる女子等は劍に殺されん彼らすなはち我のヱホバなるを知べし
Her daughters who are in the field will be slain with the sword. Then they will know that I am the LORD.’
7 主ヱホバかく言たまふ視よ我王の王なるバビロンの王ネブカデネザルをして馬車騎兵群衆および多くの民を率て北よりツロに攻きたらしむべし
“For the Lord GOD says: ‘Behold, I will bring on Tyre Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon, king of kings, from the north, with horses, with chariots, with horsemen, and an army with many people.
8 野にをる汝の女子等をば彼劍にかけて殺し又汝にむかひて雲梯を建て汝にむかひて壘を築き汝にむかひて干を備へ
He will kill your daughters in the field with the sword. He will make forts against you, cast up a mound against you, and raise up the buckler against you.
9 破城槌を汝の石垣に向けその斧をもて汝の櫓を打碎かん
He will set his battering engines against your walls, and with his axes he will break down your towers.
10 その衆多の馬の煙塵汝を覆はん彼等敝れたる城に入るごとくに汝の門々に入來らん時その騎兵と輪と車の聲のために汝の石垣震動べし
By reason of the abundance of his horses, their dust will cover you. Your walls will shake at the noise of the horsemen, of the wagons, and of the chariots, when he enters into your gates, as men enter into a city which is broken open.
11 彼その馬の蹄をもて汝の諸の衢を踏あらし劍をもて汝の民を殺さん汝の榮光の柱地に仆るべし
He will tread down all your streets with the hoofs of his horses. He will kill your people with the sword. The pillars of your strength will go down to the ground.
12 彼ら汝の財寶を奪ひ汝の商貨を掠め汝の石垣を打崩し汝の樂き舘を毀ち汝の石と木と土を水に沈めん
They will make a plunder of your riches and make a prey of your merchandise. They will break down your walls and destroy your pleasant houses. They will lay your stones, your timber, and your dust in the middle of the waters.
13 我汝の歌の聲を止めん汝の琴の音は復聞えざるべし
I will cause the noise of your songs to cease. The sound of your harps won’t be heard any more.
14 我汝を乾ける磐となさん汝は網を張る處となり再び建ことなかるべし我ヱホバこれを言ふと主ヱホバ言たまふ
I will make you a bare rock. You will be a place for the spreading of nets. You will be built no more; for I the LORD have spoken it,’ says the Lord GOD.
15 主ヱホバ、ツロにかく言たまふ島々汝の仆るる聲 手負の呻吟 および汝の中の殺戮によりて震動ざらんや
“The Lord GOD says to Tyre: ‘Won’t the islands shake at the sound of your fall, when the wounded groan, when the slaughter is made within you?
16 海の君主等皆その座を下り朝服を脱ぎ繡ある衣を去り恐懼を身に纏ひ地に坐し時となく怖れ汝の事を驚かん
Then all the princes of the sea will come down from their thrones, and lay aside their robes, and strip off their embroidered garments. They will clothe themselves with trembling. They will sit on the ground, and will tremble every moment, and be astonished at you.
17 彼ら汝の爲に哀の詞を擧て汝に言ふべし汝海より出たる住處名の高き邑自己もその居民も共に海に於て勢力ある者その凡の居民に己を恐れしむる者よ汝如何にして亡びたるや
They will take up a lamentation over you, and tell you, “How you are destroyed, who were inhabited by seafaring men, the renowned city, who was strong in the sea, she and her inhabitants, who caused their terror to be on all who lived there!”
18 それ島々は汝の仆るる日に震ひ海の島々は汝の亡ぶるに驚くなり
Now the islands will tremble in the day of your fall. Yes, the islands that are in the sea will be dismayed at your departure.’
19 主ヱホバかく言たまふ我汝を荒たる邑となし人の住はざる邑々のごとく爲し洋海を沸あがらしめて大水に汝を掩沒しめん時
“For the Lord GOD says: ‘When I make you a desolate city, like the cities that are not inhabited, when I bring up the deep on you, and the great waters cover you,
20 汝を墓に往る者等の所昔時の民の所に下し汝をして下の國に住しめ古昔よりの墟址に於て彼の墓に下れる者等とともに居しめ汝の中に復人の住こと无らしむべし而して我活る人の地に榮を創造いださん
then I will bring you down with those who descend into the pit, to the people of old time, and will make you dwell in the lower parts of the earth, in the places that are desolate of old, with those who go down to the pit, that you be not inhabited; and I will set glory in the land of the living.
21 我汝をもて人の戒懼となすべし汝は復有ることなし人汝を尋るも終に汝を看ざるべし主ヱホバこれを言ふなり
I will make you a terror, and you will no more have any being. Though you are sought for, yet you will never be found again,’ says the Lord GOD.”
