< エゼキエル書 44 >
1 斯て彼我を引て聖所の東向なる外の門の路にかへるに門は閉てあり
Then he brought me back to the outer gate of the sanctuary, which looketh toward the east; and it was shut.
2 ヱホバすなはち我に言たまひけるは此門は閉おくべし開くべからず此より誰も入るべからずイスラエルの神ヱホバ此より入たれば是は閉おくべきなり
Then said Jehovah to me: This gate shall be shut; it shall not be opened, and no man shall enter in by it; because Jehovah, the God of Israel, entered in by it, therefore it shall be shut.
3 その君は君たるが故にこの内に坐してヱホバの前に食をなさん彼は門の廊の路より入りまたその路より出ん
The prince, because he is prince, shall sit in it, to eat food before Jehovah; he shall enter through the porch of that gate, and by the same way shall he go out.
4 彼また我をひきて北の門の路より家の前に至りしが視るにヱホバの榮光ヱホバの家に滿ゐたれば我俯伏けるに
Then he brought me to the north gate before the house; and I looked, and behold, the glory of Jehovah filled the house of Jehovah. And I fell upon my face.
5 ヱホバわれに言たまふ人の子よヱホバの家の諸の則とその諸の法につきて我が汝に告るところの諸の事に心を用ひ目を注ぎ耳を傾け又殿の入口と聖所の諸の出口に心を用ひよ
And Jehovah said to me: Son of man, mark well, and behold with thine eyes, and hear with thine ears all that I say to thee concerning all the ordinances of the house of Jehovah, and all the laws thereof; and mark well all the entrances of the house, and all the outward passages of the sanctuary.
6 而して悖れる者なるイスラエルの家に言べし主ヱホバ斯いふイスラエルの家よ汝らその行ひし諸の憎むべき事等をもて足りとせよ
And say to the rebellious house of Israel, Thus saith the Lord Jehovah: Let it suffice you of all your abominations, O house of Israel,
7 即ち汝等は心にも割禮をうけず肉にも割禮をうけざる外國人をひききたりて吾聖所にあらしめてわが家を汚し又わが食なる脂と血を獻ぐることを爲り斯汝らの諸の憎むべき事の上に彼等また吾契約を破れり
in that ye brought strangers, uncircumcised in heart and uncircumcised in flesh, to be in my sanctuary, so that ye polluted my house when ye offered my food, the fat and the blood, and broke my covenant by all your abominations.
8 汝ら我が聖物を守る職守を怠り彼らをして我が聖所において汝らにかはりて我の職守を守らしめたり
And ye kept not the charge of my holy place, but appointed for yourselves such keepers of my charge in my sanctuary.
9 主ヱホバかく言たまふイスラエルの子孫の中に居るところの諸の異邦人の中凡て心に割禮をうけず肉に割禮をうけざる異邦人はわが聖所に入るべからず
Thus saith the Lord Jehovah: No stranger, uncircumcised in heart and uncircumcised in flesh, shall enter into my sanctuary, of all the strangers that are among the sons of Israel.
10 亦レビ人も迷へるイスラエルがその憎むべき偶像をしたひて我を棄て迷ひし時に我を棄ゆきたる者はその罪を蒙るべし
But even the Levites, who departed from me when Israel went astray, who went astray from me after their idols, shall bear their iniquity.
11 即ち彼らは吾が聖所にありて下僕となり家の門を守る者となり家にて下僕の業をなさん又彼ら民のために燔祭および犠牲の牲畜を殺し民のまへに立てこれに事へん
Yet they shall be ministers in my sanctuary, having charge at the gates of the house, and ministering at the house; they shall slay the burnt-offering and sacrifice for the people, and they shall stand before them to minister to them.
12 彼等その偶像の前にて民に事ヘイスラエルの家を礙かせて罪におちいらしめたるが故に主ヱホバ言ふ我手をあげて彼らを罰し彼らをしてその罪を蒙らしめたり
Because they ministered to them before their idols, and caused the house of Israel to fall into iniquity, therefore have I lifted up my hand against them, saith the Lord Jehovah, that they shall bear their iniquity.
13 彼らは我に近づきて祭司の職をなすべからず至聖所にきたりわが諸の聖き物に近よるべからずその恥とその行ひし諸の憎むべき事等の報を蒙るべし
And they shall not come near to me to do the office of a priest to me, and to come near to any of my holy things in the most holy place, but they shall bear their shame, and their abominations which they have committed.
14 我かれらをして宮守の職務をおこなはしめ宮の諸の業および其中に行ふべき諸の事を爲しむべし
But I will make them keepers of the charge of the house, for all the service thereof, and for all which is to be done therein.
15 然どザドクの裔なるレビの祭司等すなはちイスラエルの子孫が我を棄て迷謬し時にわが聖所の職守を守りたる者等は我に近づきて事へ我まへに立ち脂と血をわれに獻げん主ヱホバこれを言ふなり
But the priests, the Levites, the sons of Zadok, that kept the charge of my sanctuary when the sons of Israel went astray from me, they shall come near to me to minister to me, and they shall stand before me to offer to me the fat and the blood, saith the Lord Jehovah.
16 即ち彼等わが聖所にいり吾が臺にちかづきて我に事へわが職守を守るべし
They shall come into my sanctuary, and they shall draw near to my table to minister to me, and shall keep my charge.
17 彼等内庭の門にいる時は麻の衣を衣べし内庭の門および家において職をなす時は毛服を身につくべからず
And when they enter the gates of the inner court, they shall be clothed with linen garments, and no wool shall come upon them while they minister in the gates of the inner court, and within the house.
18 首には麻の冠をいただき腰には麻の袴を穿つべし汗のいづるごとくに身をよそほふべからず
They shall have linen coverings upon their heads, and linen breeches upon their loins; they shall not gird themselves with anything that causeth sweat.
19 彼ら外庭にいづる時すなはち外庭にいでて民に就く時はその職をなせるところの衣服を脱てこれを聖き室に置き他の衣服をつくべし是その服をもて民を聖くすること無らんためなり
And when they go forth into the outer court, even into the outer court to the people, they shall put off their garments in which they ministered, and lay them in the holy rooms, and shall clothe themselves with other garments, that they may not sanctify the people with their garments.
20 彼ら頭を剃べからず又髮を長く長すべからずその頭髮を剪るべし
They shall neither shave their heads, nor suffer their locks to grow long; they shall shear their heads.
And no priest shall drink wine when they enter into the inner court.
22 又寡婦および去れたる婦を妻にめとるべからず唯イスラエルの家の出なる處女を娶るべし又は祭司の妻の寡となりし者を娶るべし
Neither shall they take for their wives a widow, or her that is put away; but they shall take virgins of the race of the house of Israel, or a widow that is the widow of a priest.
23 彼らわが民を敎へ聖き物と俗の物の區別および汚れたる物と潔き物の區別を之に知しむべし
And they shall teach my people the difference between the holy and unholy, and cause them to discern between the unclean and the clean.
24 爭論ある時は彼ら起ちて判决き吾定例にしたがひて斷决をなさん我が諸の節期において彼らわが法と憲を守るべく又わが安息日を聖くすべし
And in controversy they shall stand to judge; according to my statutes shall they judge. And they shall keep my laws and my statutes in all my festivals, and they shall hallow my sabbaths.
25 死人の許にいたりて身を汚すべからず只父のため母のため息子のため息女のため兄弟のため夫なき姉妹のためには身を汚すも宜し
And they shall come to no dead person to defile themselves; but for father, or for mother, or for son, or for daughter, for brother, or for sister that hath had no husband, they may defile themselves.
26 斯る人にはその潔齋の後なほ七日を數へ加ふべし
And after his cleansing they shall reckon to him seven days.
27 彼聖所にいたり内庭にいり聖所にて職を執行ふ日には罪祭を獻ぐべし主ヱホバこれを言ふ
And in the day that he goeth into the sanctuary, into the inner court, to minister in the sanctuary, he shall offer his sin-offering, saith the Lord Jehovah.
28 彼らの產業は是なり即ち我これが產業たり汝らイスラエルの中にて彼らに所有を與ふべからず我すなはちこれが所有たるなり
And it shall be to them for an inheritance, that I am their inheritance. And ye shall give them no possession in Israel; I am their possession.
29 祭物および罪祭愆祭の物是等を彼等食ふべし凡てイスラエルの中の奉納物は彼らに歸す
They shall eat the flour-offering, and the sin-offering, and the trespass-offering; and every dedicated thing in Israel shall be theirs.
30 諸の物の初實の初および凡て汝らが献ぐる諸の献物みな祭司に歸すべし汝等その諸の麥粉の初を祭司に與ふべし是汝の家に幸福あらしめんためなり
And the first of all the first-fruits, and every oblation of all your oblations, shall belong to the priests. Ye shall also give to the priest the first of your meal, that he may cause a blessing to rest on thine house.
31 鳥にもあれ獸にもあれ凡て自ら死にたる者又は裂ころされし者をば祭司たる者食ふべからず
The priests shall not eat of anything that dieth of itself, or that is torn, whether it be fowl or beast.
