< エゼキエル書 29 >
1 十年の十月の十二日にヱホバの言我にのぞみて言ふ
In the tenth yeere, and in the tenth moneth in the twelfth day of the moneth, the word of the Lord came vnto me, saying,
2 人の子よ汝の面をエジプトの王パロにむけ彼とエジプト全國にむかひて預言し
Sonne of man, set thy face against Pharaoh the King of Egypt, and prophecie against him, and against all Egypt.
3 語りて言べし主ヱホバかく言たまふエジプトの王パロよ視よ我汝の敵となる汝その河に臥すところの鱷よ汝いふ河は我の所有なり我自己のためにこれを造れりと
Speake, and say, Thus sayth the Lord God, Beholde, I come against thee, Pharaoh King of Egypt, the great dragon, that lieth in the middes of his riuers, which hath saide, The riuer is mine, and I haue made it for my selfe.
4 我鉤を汝の腮に鉤け汝の河の魚をして汝の鱗に附しめ汝および汝の鱗に附る諸の魚を汝の河より曳いだし
But I will put hookes in thy chawes, and I will cause the fish of thy riuers to sticke vnto thy scales, and I will drawe thee out of the middes of thy riuers, and all the fishe of thy riuers shall sticke vnto thy scales.
5 汝と汝の河の諸の魚を曠野に投すてん汝は野の面に仆れん汝を取あぐる者なく集むる者なかるべし我汝を地の獸と天の鳥の餌に與へん
And I will leaue thee in the wildernes, both thee and al the fish of thy riuers: thou shalt fal vpon ye open field: thou shalt not be brought together, nor gathered: for I haue giue thee for meat to the beasts of the field, and to the foules of heauen.
6 エジプトの人々皆我のヱホバなるを知ん彼等のイスラエルの家におけるは葦の杖のごとくなりき
And al the inhabitants of Egypt shall know that I am the Lord, because they haue ben a staffe of reede to the house of Israel.
7 イスラエル汝の手を執ば汝折れてその肩を盡く裂き又汝に倚ば汝破れてその腰を盡く振へしむ
When they tooke holde of thee with their hand, thou diddest breake, and rent all their shoulder: and when they leaned vpon thee, thou brakest and madest all their loynes to stand vpright.
8 是故に主ヱホバかく言ふ視よ我劍を汝に持きたり人と畜を汝の中より絕ん
Therefore thus sayeth the Lord God, Beholde, I will bring a sworde vpon thee, and destroy man and beast out of thee,
9 エジプトの地は荒て空曠なるべし彼らすなはち我のヱホバなるを知ん彼河は我の有なり我これを作れりと言ふ
And the land of Egypt shalbe desolate, and waste, and they shall know that I am ye Lord: because he hath said, The riuer is mine, and I haue made it,
10 是故に我汝と汝の河々を罰しエジプトの地をミグドルよりスエネに至りエテオピアの境に至るまで盡く荒して空曠くせん
Behold, therefore I come vpon thee, and vpon thy riuers, and I will make the land of Egypt vtterly waste and desolate from the towre of Seueneh, euen vnto the borders of the blacke Mores.
11 人の足此を渉らず獸の足此を渉らじ四十年の間此に人の住ことなかるべし
No foote of man shall passe by it, nor foote of beast shall passe by it, neither shall it be inhabited fourtie yeeres.
12 我エジプトの地を荒して荒たる國々の中にあらしめんその邑々は荒て四十年の間荒たる邑々の中にあるべし我エジプト人を諸の民の中に散し諸の國に散さん
And I wil make the land of Egypt desolate in the middes of the countries, that are desolate, and her cities shall be desolate among the cities that are desolate, for fourtie yeeres: and I wil scatter the Egyptians among the nations, and wil disperse them through the countreis.
13 但し主ヱホバかく言たまふ四十年の後我エジプト人をその散されたる諸の民の中より集めん
Yet thus saieth the Lord God, At the end of fourtie yeeres will I gather the Egyptians from the people, where they were scattered,
14 即ちエジプトの俘囚人を歸しその生れし國なるバテロスの地にかへらしむべし彼らは其處に卑き國を成ん
And I wil bring againe the captiuitie of Egypt, and will cause them to returne into the land of Pathros, into the lande of their habitation, and they shalbe there a small kingdome.
15 是は諸の國よりも卑くして再び國々の上にいづることなかるべし我かれらを小くすれば彼らは重て國々を治むることなし
It shall be the smallest of the kingdomes, neither shall it exalt it selfe any more aboue the nations: for I will diminish them, that they shall no more rule the nations.
16 彼らは再びイスラエルの家の恃とならじイスラエルはこれに心をよせてその罪をおもひ出さしむることなかるべし彼らすなはち我の主ヱホバなるを知ん
And it shall be no more the confidence of the house of Israel, to bring their iniquitie to remembrance by looking after them, so shall they knowe, that I am the Lord God.
17 茲に二十七年の一月の一日にヱホバの言我にのぞみて言ふ
In the seuen and twentieth yeere also in the first moneth, and in the first day of the moneth, came the word of the Lord vnto me, saying,
18 人の子よバビロンの王ネブカデネザルその軍勢をしてツロにむかひて大に働かしむ皆首禿げ皆肩破る然るに彼もその軍勢もその爲るところの事業のためにツロよりその報を得ず
Sonne of man, Nebuchad-nezzar King of Babel caused his armie to serue a great seruice against Tyrus: euery head was made balde, and euery shoulder was made bare: yet had he no wages, nor his armie for Tyrus, for the seruice that he serued against it.
19 是故に主ヱホバかくいふ視よ我バビロンの王ネブカデネザルにエジプトの地を與へん彼その衆多の財寳を取り物を掠め物を奪はん是その軍勢の報たらん
Therefore thus sayth the Lord God, Beholde, I will giue the land of Egypt vnto Nebuchad-nezzar the King of Babel, and he shall take her multitude, and spoyle her spoyle, and take her pray, and it shall be the wages for his armie.
20 彼の勞動る値として我エジプトの地をかれに與ふ彼わがために之をなしたればなり主ヱホバこれを言ふ
I haue giuen him the land of Egypt for his labour, that he serued against it, because they wrought for me, sayth the Lord God.
21 當日に我イスラエルの家に一の角を生ぜしめ汝をして彼らの中に口を啓くことを得せしめん彼等すなはち我がヱホバなるを知べし
In that day will I cause the horne of the house of Israel to growe, and I will giue thee an open mouth in the middes of them, and they shall knowe that I am the Lord.
