エゼキエル書 36

1 人の子よ汝イスラエルの山々に預言して言べしイスラエルの山々よヱホバの言を聽け

"You, son of man, prophesy to the mountains of Israel, and say, 'You mountains of Israel, hear the word of YHWH.

2 主ヱホバかく言たまふ敵汝等の事につきて言ふ嗚呼是等の舊き高處我儕の所有となると

Thus says YHWH: "Because the enemy has said against you, 'Aha.' and, 'The ancient high places are ours in possession'"';

3 是故に汝預言して言へ主ヱホバかく言ふ彼等汝らを荒し四方より汝らを呑り是をもて汝等は國民の中の殘餘者の所有となり亦人の口齒にかかりて噂せらる

therefore prophesy, and say, 'Thus says YHWH: "Because, even because they have made you desolate, and swallowed you up on every side, that you might be a possession to the residue of the nations, and you are taken up in the lips of talkers, and the evil report of the people";

4 然ばイスラエルの山々よ主ヱホバの言を聞け主ヱホバ山と岡と窪地と谷と滅びたる荒跡と人の棄たる邑々即ちその周圍に殘れる國民に掠められ嘲けらるる者にかく言たまふ

therefore, you mountains of Israel, hear the word of YHWH: "Thus says YHWH to the mountains and to the hills, to the watercourses and to the valleys, to the desolate wastes and to the cities that are forsaken, which are become a prey and derision to the residue of the nations that are all around;

5 即ち主ヱホバかく言たまふ我まことに吾が嫉妬の火焰をもやして國民の殘餘者とエドム全國の事を言り是等は心に歡樂を極め心に誇りて吾地をおのれの所有となし之を奪ひ掠めし者なり

therefore thus says YHWH: 'Surely in the fire of my jealousy have I spoken against the residue of the nations, and against all Edom, that have appointed my land to themselves for a possession with the joy of all their heart, with despite of soul, to cast it out for a prey.'"'

6 然ばイスラエルの國の事を預言し山と岡と窪地と谷とに言ふべし主ヱホバかく言たまふ汝等諸の國民の羞辱を蒙りしに因て我わが嫉妬と忿怒を發して語れり

"Therefore prophesy concerning the land of Israel, and tell the mountains and to the hills, to the watercourses and to the valleys, 'Thus says YHWH: "Look, I have spoken in my jealousy and in my wrath, because you have borne the shame of the nations:

7 是をもて主ヱホバかく言たまふ我わが手を擧ぐ汝の周圍の諸の國民は必ず自身羞辱を蒙るべし

therefore thus says the Lord YHWH: 'I have sworn, saying, "Surely the nations that are around you, they shall bear their shame."

8 然どイスラエルの山々よ汝等は枝を生じわが民イスラエルのために實を結ばん此事遠からず成ん

"'"'But you, mountains of Israel, you shall shoot forth your branches, and yield your fruit to my people Israel; for they are at hand to come.

9 視よ我汝らに臨み汝らを眷みん汝らは耕されて種をまかるべし

For, look, I am for you, and I will turn into you, and you shall be tilled and sown;

10 我汝等の上に人を殖さん是皆悉くイスラエルの家の者なるべし邑々には人住み墟址は建直さるべし

and I will multiply men on you, all the house of Israel, even all of it; and the cities shall be inhabited, and the waste places shall be built;

11 我なんぢらの上に人と牲畜を殖さん是等は殖て多く子を生ん我汝らの上に昔時のごとくに人を住しめ汝らの初の時よりもまされる恩惠を汝等に施すべし汝等は我がヱホバなるを知にいたらん

and I will multiply on you man and animal; and they shall increase and be fruitful; and I will cause you to be inhabited after your former estate, and will do better to you than at your beginnings: and you shall know that I am YHWH.

12 我わが民イスラエルの人を汝らの上に歩ましめん彼等汝を有つべし汝はかれらの產業となり重ねて彼等に子なからしむることあらじ

Yes, I will cause men to walk on you, even my people Israel; and they shall possess you, and you shall be their inheritance, and you shall no more henceforth bereave them of children.'"

13 主ヱホバかく言ひたまふ彼等汝らに向ひ汝は人を食ひなんぢの民をして子なからしめたりと言ふ

"'Thus says YHWH: "Because they say to you, 'You are a devourer of men, and have been a bereaver of your nation';

14 是故に主ヱホバ言たまふ汝ふたたび人を食ふべからず再び汝の民を躓かしむべからず

therefore you shall devour men no more, neither bereave your nation any more," says YHWH;

15 我汝をして重ねて國々の民の嘲笑を聞しめじ汝は重ねて國々の民の羞辱を蒙ることあらず汝の民を躓かしむることあらじ主ヱホバこれを言ふ

"neither will I let you hear any more the shame of the nations, neither shall you bear the reproach of the peoples any more, neither shall you cause your nation to stumble any more," says YHWH.'"

16 ヱホバの言また我にのぞみて言ふ

Moreover the word of YHWH came to me, saying,

17 人の子よ昔イスラエルの家その國に住み己の途と行爲とをもて之を汚せりその途は月穢ある婦の穢のごとくに我に見えたり

"Son of man, when the house of Israel lived in their own land, they defiled it by their way and by their doings: their way before me was as the uncleanness of a woman in her impurity.

18 彼等國に血を流し且その偶像をもて國を汚したるに因て我わが怒を彼等に斟ぎ

Therefore I poured out my wrath on them for the blood which they had poured out on the land, and because they had defiled it with their idols;

19 彼らを諸の國の民の中に散したれば則ち諸の國に散ぬ我かれらの道と行爲とにしたがひて彼等を鞫けり

and I scattered them among the nations, and they were dispersed through the countries: according to their way and according to their doings I judged them.

20 彼等その往ところの國々に至りしが遂にわが聖き名を汚せり即ち人かれらを見てこれはヱホバの民にしてかれの國より出來れる者なりと言り

When they came to the nations, where they went, they profaned my holy name; in that men said of them, 'These are the people of YHWH, and are gone forth out of his land.'

21 是をもて我イスラエルの家がその至れる國々にて瀆せしわが聖き名を惜めり

But I had respect for my holy name, which the house of Israel had profaned among the nations, where they went.

22 此故に汝イスラエルの家に言べし主ヱホバかく言たまふイスラエルの家よ我汝らのために之をなすにあらず汝らがその至れる國々にて汚せしわが聖き名のためになすなり

"Therefore tell the house of Israel, 'Thus says YHWH: "I do not do this for your sake, house of Israel, but for my holy name, which you have profaned among the nations, where you went.

23 我國々の民の中に汚されたるわが大なる名即ち汝らがかれらの中にありて汚したるところの者を聖くせん國々の民はわが汝らに由て我の聖き事をその目の前にあらはさん時我がヱホバなるを知ん

I will sanctify my great name, which has been profaned among the nations, which you have profaned in their midst; and the nations shall know that I am YHWH when I magnify myself among you before their eyes.

24 我汝等を諸の民の中より導き出し諸の國より集めて汝らの國に携いたり

For I will take you from among the nations, and gather you out of all the countries, and will bring you into your own land.

25 淸き水を汝等に灑ぎて汝等を淸くならしめ汝等の諸の汚穢と諸の偶像を除きて汝らを淸むべし

I will sprinkle clean water on you, and you shall be clean: from all your filthiness, and from all your idols, will I cleanse you.

26 我新しき心を汝等に賜ひ新しき靈魂を汝らの衷に賦け汝等の肉より石の心を除きて肉の心を汝らに與へ

And I will also give you a new heart, and I will put a new spirit within you. And I will take away the stony heart out of your flesh, and I will give you a heart of flesh.

27 吾靈を汝らの衷に置き汝らをして我が法度に歩ましめ吾律を守りて之を行はしむべし

I will put my Spirit within you, and cause you to walk in my statutes, and you shall keep my ordinances, and do them.

28 汝等はわが汝らの先祖等に與へし地に住て吾民とならん我は汝らの神となるべし

You shall dwell in the land that I gave to your fathers; and you shall be my people, and I will be your God.

29 我汝らを救ひてその諸の汚穢を離れしめ穀物を召て之を増し饑饉を汝らに臨ませず

I will save you from all your uncleanness: and I will call for the grain, and will multiply it, and lay no famine on you.

30 樹の果と田野の作物を多くせん是をもて汝らは重て饑饉の羞を國々の民の中に蒙ることあらじ

I will multiply the fruit of the tree, and the increase of the field, that you may receive no more the reproach of famine among the nations.

31 汝らはその惡き途とその善らぬ行爲を憶えてその罪とその憎むべき事のために自ら恨みん

Then you shall remember your evil ways, and your doings that were not good; and you shall loathe yourselves in your own sight for your iniquities and for your abominations.

32 主ヱホバ言たまふ我が之を爲は汝らのためにあらず汝らこれを知れよイスラエルの家よ汝らの途を愧て悔むべし

Nor for your sake do I this," says YHWH, "be it known to you: be ashamed and confounded for your ways, house of Israel."'

33 主ヱホバかく言たまふ我汝らの諸の罪を淸むる日に邑々に人を住しめ墟址を再興しめん

"Thus says YHWH: 'In the day that I cleanse you from all your iniquities, I will cause the cities to be inhabited, and the waste places shall be built.

34 荒たる地は前に往來の人々の目に荒地と見たるに引かへて耕さるるに至るべし

The land that was desolate shall be tilled, whereas it was a desolation in the sight of all who passed by.

35 人すなはち言ん此荒たりし地はエデンの園のごとくに成り荒滅び圮れたりし邑々は堅固なりて人の住に至れりと

They shall say, "This land that was desolate has become like the garden of Eden; and the waste and desolate and ruined cities are fortified and inhabited."

36 汝らの周圍に殘れる國々の民はすなはち我ヱホバが圮れし者を再興し荒たるところに栽植することを知にいたらん我ヱホバこれを言ふ之を爲ん

Then the nations that are left around you shall know that I, YHWH, have built the ruined places, and planted that which was desolate: I, YHWH, have spoken it, and I will do it.'"

37 主ヱホバかく言たまふイスラエルの家我が是を彼らのために爲んことをまた我に求むべきなり我群のごとくに彼ら人々を殖さん

"Thus says YHWH: 'For this, moreover, will I be inquired of by the house of Israel, to do it for them: I will increase them with men like a flock.

38 荒たる邑々には聖き群のごとくヱルサレムの節日の群のごとくに人の群滿ん人々すなはち我がヱホバなるを知べし

As the flock for sacrifice, as the flock of Jerusalem in her appointed feasts, so shall the waste cities be filled with flocks of men; and they shall know that I am YHWH.'"
