< 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
And thou, son of man, prophesy unto mountains of Israel, and thou hast said, O mountains of Israel, hear a word of Jehovah.
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 said the Lord Jehovah: Because the enemy said against you, Aha, and the high places of old for a possession have been to us,
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 hast said: Thus said the Lord Jehovah: Because, even because, of desolating, And of swallowing you up from round about, For your being a possession to the remnant of the nations, And ye are taken up on the tip of the tongue, And [are] an 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, O mountains of Israel, Hear a word of the Lord Jehovah: Thus said the Lord Jehovah, to mountains, and to hills, To streams, and to valleys, And to wastes that [are] desolate, And to cities that are forsaken, That have been for a prey, And for a scorn, to the remnant of the nations who [are] round about.
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 said the Lord Jehovah: Have I not, in the fire of My jealousy, Spoken against the remnant of the nations, And against Edom — all of it, Who gave My land to themselves for a possession, With the joy of the whole heart — with despite of soul, For the sake of casting 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 ground of Israel, And thou hast said to mountains, and to hills, To streams, and to valleys, Thus said the Lord Jehovah: Lo, I, in My jealousy, and in My fury, I have spoken, Because the shame of 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 said the Lord Jehovah: I — I have lifted up My hand, Do not — the nations who [are] with you from round about — they their own shame 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
And ye, O mountains of Israel, Your branch ye give out, and your fruits ye bear for My people Israel, For they have drawn near 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, lo, I [am] for you, and have turned to you, And ye have been 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 have multiplied on you men, All the house of Israel — all of it, And the cities have been inhabited, And the wastes are 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 have multiplied on you man and beast, And they have multiplied and been fruitful, And I have caused you to dwell according to your former states, And I have done better than at your beginnings, And ye have known that I [am] Jehovah.
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 have caused man to walk over you, — My people Israel, And they possess thee, and thou hast been to them for an inheritance, And thou dost add no more to bereave them.
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 said the Lord Jehovah: Because they are saying to you: A devourer of men [art] thou, And a bereaver of thy nations thou hast 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, man thou devourest no more, And thy nations thou causest not to stumble any more, An affirmation of the Lord Jehovah.
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 proclaim not unto thee any more the shame of the nations, And the reproach of peoples thou bearest no more, And thy nations stumble not any more, An affirmation of the Lord Jehovah.'
And there is a word of Jehovah 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 are dwelling on their land, And they defile it by their way and by their doings, As the uncleanness of a separated one hath their way been 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
And I do pour out My fury upon them For the blood that they shed on the land, And with their idols they have 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
And I scatter them among nations, And they are spread through lands, According to their way, and according to their doings, I have 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
And one goeth in unto the nations whither they have gone, And they pollute My holy name by saying to them, The people of Jehovah [are] these, And from His land they have gone 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
And I have pity on My holy name, That the house of Israel have polluted among nations whither they have gone in.
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 to the house of Israel, Thus said the Lord Jehovah: Not for your sake am I working, O house of Israel, But — for My holy name, That ye have polluted among nations whither ye have gone in.
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
And I have sanctified My great name, That is profaned among nations, That ye have polluted in your midst, And known have the nations that I [am] Jehovah, An affirmation of the Lord Jehovah, In My being sanctified in you before your 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
And I have taken you out of the nations, And have gathered you out of all the lands, And I have brought you in unto your 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
And I have sprinkled over you clean water, And ye have been clean; From all your uncleannesses, and from all your idols, I do 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 have given to you a new heart, And a new spirit I give in your midst, And I have turned aside the heart of stone out of your flesh, And I have given to 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 I give in your midst, And I have done this, so that in My statutes ye walk, And My judgments ye keep, and have done 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
And ye have dwelt in the land that I have given to your fathers, And ye have been to Me for a people, And I — I am to you for 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 have saved you from all your uncleannesses, And I have called unto the corn, and multiplied it, And I have put no famine upon 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
And I have multiplied the fruit of the tree, And the increase of the field, So that ye receive not any more a reproach of famine among 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
And ye have remembered your ways that [are] evil, And your doings that [are] not good, And have been loathsome in your own faces, 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 sake am I working, An affirmation of the Lord Jehovah, Be it known to you, Be ashamed and confounded, because of 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 said the Lord Jehovah: In the day of My cleansing you from all your iniquities, I have caused the cities to be inhabited, And the wastes have been 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 desolate land is tilled, Instead of which 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 have said: This land, that was desolated, Hath been as the garden of Eden, And the cities — the wasted, And the desolated, and the broken down, Fenced places have remained.
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
And known have the nations who are left round about you, That I Jehovah have built the thrown down, I have planted the desolated: I Jehovah have spoken, and I have done [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 said the Lord Jehovah: Yet this I am required, By the house of Israel to do to them, I multiply them as a flock of 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
As a flock of holy ones, as a flock of Jerusalem, In her appointed seasons, So are the waste cities full of flocks of men, And they have known that I [am] Jehovah!'
