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

Thou therefore. Son of man, Prophesy unto the mountains of Israel, —and thou shalt say, Ye mountains of Israel Hear ye the word of Yahweh.

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 saith My Lord, Yahweh, Because the enemy hath said concerning you Aha! Even the high places of age-past times, for a possession have become ours

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 thou shalt say, Thus saith My Lord Yahweh-Because even because they have desolated and panted for you on every side That ye should become a possession to the rest of the nations, And ye have come up into the talk of the tongue and the slander 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 ye mountains of Israel, hear ye the word of My Lord Yahweh, — Thus saith My Lord, Yahweh, To the mountains and to the hills, to the channels and to the valleys, and to the desolate waste places and to the cities that are forsaken, which have become a prey and a derision, to the rest of the nations which are on every side:

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, saith My Lord, Yahweh, Surely in the fire of my jealousy, have I spoken against the rest of the nations and against Edom all of it, — Who have given my land to themselves for a possession, In the rejoicing of all the heart In contempt of soul, To make of its produce 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 soil of Israel, —and say to the mountains and to the hills to the channels and to the valleys, Thus, saith My Lord Yahweh, Behold me! In my jealousy and in mine indignation, have I spoken, Because the insult of the nations, ye have borne;

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 saith My Lord Yahweh, I myself have lifted my hand, - Surely the nations which are yours round about, they their own shame, shall bear:

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 ye O mountains of Israel Your boughs, shall ye shoot forth, And your fruit, shall ye bear For my people Israel, For they have drawn near to enter.

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 lo! I am towards you, Therefore will I turn towards you, And ye 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, upon you—men, All the house of Israel All of it, Then shall the cities 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 upon you—man and beast, And they shall multiply and be fruitful, — And I will cause you to be inhabited as in your former estates. And will do you more good than at your beginnings, So shall ye know that am Yahweh;

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

And I will bring upon you—men even my people Israel That they may possess thee, So shalt thou be theirs, as an inheritance, -And thou shalt no more again make them childless.

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 saith My Lord, Yahweh, Because they are saying to you. A devourer of men, thou art, And one that didst make childless thy nations, hast thou been

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, men, shalt thou not devour any more, - And thy nations, shalt thou make childless no more, Declareth My Lord Yahweh;

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

And I will not suffer to be heard against thee any more, the insult of the nations, And the reproach of the peoples, shalt thou not bear any more, - And thy nations, shalt thou not cause to stumble any more, Declareth My Lord Yahweh.

16 ヱホバの言また我にのぞみて言ふ

And the word of Yahweh came unto 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 The house of Israel were dwelling upon their own soil, But they defiled it by their way, and by their doings. Like the defilement of her that is removed, became their way before me.

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

So I poured out mine indignation upon them, Because of the blood which they had shed upon the land, - Yea with their manufactured gods, had they defiled it.

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

So I dispersed them among the nations, And they were scattered throughout the lands, — 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

But when they entered among the nations where they did enter, then profaned they my holy Name, —in that it was said of them The people of Yahweh, these! Yet from his land, have they come forth!

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

So then I had tender regard for my holy Name, - Which the house of Israel had profaned, among the nations, where they had entered.

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 say thou to the house of Israel Thus saith My Lord Yahweh, Not for your sakes, am I working. O house of Israel, But for my holy Name which ye have profaned, among the nations where ye have entered;

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

Therefore will I hallow my great Name, that hath been profaned among the nations, which ye have profaned in their midst, -So shall the nations know that I am Yahweh Declareth My Lord, Yahweh, When I have hallowed myself in 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

Therefore will I take you from among the nations, And gather you out of all the lands, - And will bring you upon your own soil;

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

And I will throw upon you clean water and ye shall be clean, — From all your uncleannesses and from all your manufactured gods, 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 give you a new heart, And a new spirit, will I put within you, -And I will take away the heart of stone out of your flesh, And 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

And my spirit, will I put within you, And will cause That in my statutes, ye shall walk, And my regulations, ye shall observe, and do;

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

And ye shall dwell in the land which I gave to your fathers, - And ye shall become my people, And I will become 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

And I will save you out of all your uncleannesses, —And will call for the corn and will increase it, And will not lay upon you famine; And I will save you out of all your uncleannesses, —And will call for the corn and will increase it, And will not lay upon you famine;

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

And I will multiply The fruit of the tree, and The increase of the field, — To the end that ye may not receive any 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 shall ye call to mind Your ways that were wicked, and Your doings that were not good, - And shall become loathsome 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

Not for your sakes, am I working, Declareth My Lord Yahweh be it known to you, — Turn ye pale and then blush for your ways. O 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 saith My Lord, Yahweh, In the day when I cleanse you, from all your iniquities, Then will I 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

And the land that was made desolate shall be tilled, — Whereas it was a desolation, before the eyes of every passer-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

And they shall say, This land that was made desolate hath become like the garden of Eden, - And the cities that were waste and deserted and thrown down, now fenced, are 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

So shall the nations that may be left remaining round about you know that, I Yahweh— Have built that which was thrown down, and Have planted that which was made desolate, — I Yahweh, have spoken and performed.

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, saith My Lord Yahweh, Even yet—for this, will I be prevailed upon by the house of Israel to work for them, — I will multiply them-Like a flock—with men:

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

Like a flock of holy offerings Like 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 Yahweh.
