エゼキエル書 3

1 彼また我に言たまひけるは人の子よ汝獲るところの者を食へ此卷物を食ひ往てイスラエルの家に告よ

And he said to me, Son of Man, eat this volume, and go and speak to the children of Israel.

2 是に於て我口をひらけばその卷物を我に食はしめて

So he opened my mouth, and caused me to eat the volume. And he said to me, Son of man,

3 我にいひ給ひけるは人の子よわが汝にあたふる此卷物をもて腹をやしなへ膓にみたせよと我すなはち之をくらふに其わが口に甘きこと蜜のごとくなりき

your mouth shall eat, and your belly shall be filled with this volume that is given to you. So I ate it; and it was in my mouth as sweet as honey.

4 彼また我にいひたまひけるは人の子よイスラエルの家にゆきて吾言を之につげよ

And he said to me, Son of man, go your way, and go in to the house of Israel, and speak my words to them.

5 我なんぢを唇の深き舌の重き民につかはすにあらずイスラエルの家につかはすなり

For you are not sent to a people of hard speech, [but] to the house of Israel;

6 汝がその言語をしらざる唇の深き舌の重き多くの國人に汝をつかはすにあらず我もし汝を彼らに遣さば彼等汝に聽べし

neither to many nations of other speech and other tongues, nor of harsh language, whose words you would not understand: although if I [had] sent you to such, they would have listened to you.

7 然どイスラエルの家は我に聽ことを好まざれば汝に聽ことをせざるべしイスラエルの全家は厚顏にして心の剛愎なる者なればなり

But the house of Israel will not be willing to listen to you; for they will not listen to me: for all the house of Israel are stubborn and hard-hearted.

8 視よ我かれらの面のごとく汝の面をかたくしかれらの額のごとく汝の額を堅くせり

And, behold, I have made your face strong against their faces, and I will strengthen your power against their power.

9 我なんぢの額を金剛石のごとくし磐よりも堅くせり彼らは背逆る族なり汝かれらを懼るるなかれ彼らの面に戰慄くなかれ

And it shall be continually stronger than a rock: be not afraid of them, neither be dismayed at their faces, because it is a provoking house.

10 又われに言たまひけるは人の子よわが汝にいふところの凡の言を汝の心にをさめ汝の耳にきけよ

And he said to me, Son of man, receive into your heart all the words that I have spoken to you, and hear [them] with your ears.

11 往てかの擄へ移されたる汝の民の子孫にいたりこれに語りて主ヱホバかく言たまふと言へ彼ら聽も拒むも汝然すべし

And go your way, go in to the captivity, to the children of your people, and you shall speak to them, and say to them, Thus says the Lord; whether they will hear, [or] whether they will forbear.

12 時に靈われを上に擧しが我わが後に大なる響の音ありてヱホバの榮光のその處より出る者は讚べきかなと云ふを聞けり

Then the Spirit took me up, and I heard behind me the voice [as] of a great earthquake, [saying], Blessed [be] the glory of the Lord from his place.

13 また生物の互にあひ連る翼の聲とその傍にある輪の聲および大なる響の音を聞く

And I perceived the sound of the wings of the living creatures clapping one to the other, and the sound of the wheels was near them, and the sound of the earthquake.

14 靈われを上にあげて携へゆけば我苦々しく思ひ心を熱くして往くヱホバの手強くわが上にあり

And the Spirit lifted me, and took me up, and I went in the impulse of my spirit; and the hand of the Lord was mighty upon me.

15 爰に我ケバル河の邊にてテラアビブに居るかの擄移れたる者に至り驚きあきれてその坐する所に七日俱に坐せり

Then I passed through the air and came into the captivity, and went round [to] them that lived by the river of Chobar who were there; and I sat there seven days, conversant in the midst of them.

16 七日すぎし後ヱホバの言われにのぞみて言ふ

And after the seven days the word of the Lord came to me, saying, Son of man,

17 人の子よ我なんぢを立てイスラエルの家の爲に守望者となす汝わが口より言を聽き我にかはりてこれを警むべし

I have made you a watchman to the house of Israel; and you shall hear a word of my mouth, and shall threaten them from me.

18 我惡人に汝かならず死べしと言んに汝かれを警めず彼をいましめ語りその惡き道を離れしめて之が生命を救はずばその惡人はおのが惡のために死んされど其血をば我汝の手に要むべし

When I say to the wicked, You shall surely die; and you have not warned him, to give warning to the wicked, to turn from his ways, that he should live; that wicked man shall die in his iniquity; but his blood will I require at your hand.

19 然ど汝惡人を警めんに彼その惡とその惡き道を離れずば彼はその惡の爲に死ん汝はおのれの靈魂を救ふなり

But if you warn the wicked, and he turn not from his wickedness, and from his way, that wicked man shall die in his iniquity, and you shall deliver your soul.

20 又義人その義事をすてて惡を行はんに我躓礙をその前におかば彼は死べし汝かれを警めざれば彼はその罪のために死てそのおこなひし義き事を記ゆる者なきにいたらん然ば我その血を汝の手に要むべし

And when the righteous turns away from his righteousness, and commits a trespass, and I shall bring punishment before him, he shall die, because you did not warn him: he shall even die in his sins, because his righteousness shall not be remembered; but his blood will I require at your hand.

21 然ど汝もし義き人をいましめ義き人に罪ををかさしめずして彼罪を犯すことをせずば彼は警戒をうけたるがためにかならずその生命をたもたん汝はおのれの靈魂を救ふなり

But if you warn the righteous not to sin, and he sin not, the righteous shall surely live, because you have warned him; and you shall deliver your own soul.

22 茲にヱホバの手かしこにてわが上にあり彼われに言たまひけるは起て平原にいでよ我そこにて汝にかたらん

And the hand of the Lord came upon me; and he said to me, Arise, and go forth into the plain, and there shall you be spoken to.

23 我すなはち起て平原に往にヱホバの榮光わがケバル河の邊にて見し榮光のごとく其處に立ければ俯伏たり

And I arose, and went forth to the plain: and, behold, the glory of the Lord stood there, according to the vision, and according to the glory of the Lord, which I saw by the river of Chobar: and I fell on my face.

24 時に靈われの中にいりて我を立あがらせ我にかたりていふ往て汝の家にこもれ

Then the Spirit came upon me, and set me on my feet, and spoke to me, and said to me, Go in, and shut yourself up in the midst of your house.

25 人の子よ彼等汝に繩をうちかけ其をもて汝を縛らん汝はかれらの中に出ゆくことを得ざるべし

And you, son of man, behold, bonds are prepared for you, and they shall bind you with them, and you shall not come forth of the midst of them.

26 我なんぢの舌を上咢に堅く着しめて汝を啞となし彼等を警めざらしむべし彼等は悖逆る族なればなり

Also I will bind your tongue, and you shall be dumb, and shall not be to them a reprover: because it is a provoking house.

27 然ど我汝に語る時は汝の口をひらかん汝彼らにいふべし主ヱホバかく言たまふ聽者は聽べし拒む者は拒むべし彼等は悖逆る族なり

But when I speak to you, I will open your mouth, and you shall say to them, Thus says the Lord, He that hears, let him hear; and he that is disobedient, let him be disobedient: because it is a provoking house.
