< エゼキエル書 6 >
Yahweh gave me another message. He said,
2 人の子よ汝の面をイスラエルの山々にむけて預言して言ふべし
“You human, turn toward the mountains of Israel, and prophesy [what will happen to] them, and say,
3 イスラエルの山よ主ヱホバの言を聽け主ヱホバ山と岡と谷と平原にむかひて斯いひたまふ視よ我劍を汝等に遣り汝らの崇邱を滅ぼす
‘You mountains and hills of Israel [APO], listen to what Yahweh the Lord says to you: “I am about to [enemy soldiers with] swords to come and destroy [the shrines on] your hilltops.
4 汝等の壇は荒され日の像は毀たれん我汝らの中の殺さるる者をして汝らの偶像の前に仆れしむべし
They will smash all the [for worshiping idols] and the altars for burning incense. And they will [many Israeli] people in front of those idols.
5 我イスラエルの子孫の尸骸をその偶像の前に置ん汝らの骨をその壇の周圍に散さん
Their corpses will lie in front of their idols, and their bones will be scattered around their altars.
6 凡て汝らの住ところにて邑々は滅され崇邱は荒されん斯して汝らの壇は壞れて荒れ汝らの偶像は毀たれて滅び汝等の日の像は斫たふされ汝等の作りし者は絕されん
Wherever the Israelis live, their towns will be ruined, and the shrines where they worship idols will be smashed. Their altars will be completely smashed [DOU], their idols will be completely smashed [DOU], and everything that they own will become a pile of ruins.
7 又殺さるる者なんぢらの中に仆れん汝等これに由て吾ヱホバなるを知るにいたらん
Many of their people will be killed; and then they will know that I, Yahweh, [have the power to do the things that I say that I will do].
8 我或者を汝らにのこす即ち劍をのがれて異邦の中にをる者國々の中にちらさるる者是なり
But I will allow some of the Israelis to remain alive. They will escape being killed when their enemies scatter them among many other nations.
9 汝等の中の逃れたる者はその擄ゆかれし國々において我を記念ふに至らん是は我かれらの我をはなれたるその姦淫をなすの心を挫き且かれらの姦淫を好みてその偶像を慕ふところの目を挫くに由てなり而して彼等はその諸の憎むべき者をもて爲たるところの惡のために自ら恨むべし
When that happens, in those nations to which they have been forced to go, those who have escaped from being killed will think about me. They will remember that I was very grieved because of their turning away from me [IDM] with their inner beings, and because they very much desired [IDM] to worship their idols. They will (hate/be very displeased with) themselves because of the evil and detestable things that they have done.
10 斯彼等はわがヱホバなるを知るにいたらん吾がこの災害をかれらになさんと語しことは徒然にならざるなり
[they will realize that] I, Yahweh, [have punished them. They will realize that] when I threatened to punish them, I surely intended [LIT] to do that.
11 主ヱホバかく言たまふ汝手をもて撃ち足を踏ならして言へ嗚呼凡てイスラエルの家の惡き憎むべき者は禍なるかな皆刀と饑饉と疫病に仆るべし
So this is what I, Yahweh the Lord, [to you, Ezekiel]: ‘Wring your hands and stamp your feet and cry [to show that you are distressed], and [about what will happen to] your Israeli people [MTY] because of all their wicked and detestable behavior. They will be killed [their enemies’] swords, they will die from hunger, and they will die from plagues.
12 遠方にある者は疫病にて死に近方にある者は刀に仆れん又生存りて身を全うする者は饑饉に死ぬべし斯我わが憤怒を彼等に洩しつくすべし
Those who are far [from Jerusalem] will die from plagues, those who are close [to Jerusalem] will be killed by [their enemies’] swords, and those who are still alive will die from hunger. That is how I will punish [MTY] them.
13 彼等の殺さるる者その偶像の中にありその壇の周圍にあり諸の高岡にあり諸の山の頂にあり諸の靑樹の下にあり諸の茂れる橡樹の下にあり彼等が馨しき香をその諸の偶像にささげたる處にあらん其時汝等はわがヱホバなるを知るべし
[Some of] your people’s corpses will lie among their idols around their altars, on every high hilltop and on all the mountaintops, under every big tree [DOU]—at all the places where they burned incense [honor] their idols. Then they will know that I, Yahweh, [have the power to do what I say that I will do].
14 我手をかれらの上に伸べ凡てかれらの住居ところにて其地を荒してデブラの野にもまさる荒地となすべし是によりて彼らはわがヱホバなるを知るにいたらん
And I will stretch out my arm and cause your entire country to become an empty wasteland, from the [in the far south] to [town in the far north]. Then they will realize that I, Yahweh, [have the power to do the things that I say that I will do].’”
