イザヤ書 14
1 ヱホバ、ヤコブを憐みイスラエルをふたたび撰びて之をおのれの地におきたまはん 異邦人これに加りてヤコブの家にむすびつらなるべし
For the LORD will have compassion on Jacob, and will yet choose Israel, and set them in their own land; and the stranger shall join himself with them, and they shall cleave to the house of Jacob.
2 もろもろの民はかれらをその處にたづさへいたらん而してイスラエルの家はヱホバの地にてこれを奴婢となし曩におのれを虜にしたるものを虜にし おのれを虐げたるものを治めん
And the peoples shall take them, and bring them to their place; and the house of Israel shall possess them in the land of the LORD for servants and for handmaids; and they shall take them captive, whose captives they were; and they shall rule over their oppressors.
3 ヱホバなんぢの憂と艱難とをのぞき 亦なんぢが勤むるからき役をのぞきて安息をたまふの日
And it shall come to pass in the day that the LORD shall give thee rest from thy travail, and from thy trouble, and from the hard service wherein thou wast made to serve,
4 なんぢこの歌をとなへバビロン王をせめていはん虐ぐる者いかにして息みしや 金をはたる者いかにして息みしやと
that thou shalt take up this parable against the king of Babylon, and say: How hath the oppressor ceased! the exactress of gold ceased!
5 ヱホバあしきものの笞ともろもろの有司の杖とををりたまへり
The LORD hath broken the staff of the wicked, the sceptre of the rulers,
6 かれらは怒をもてもろもろの民をたえず撃てはうち 忿恚をもてもろもろの國ををさむれど その暴虐をとどむる者なかりき
That smote the peoples in wrath with an incessant stroke, that ruled the nations in anger, with a persecution that none restrained.
7 今は全地やすみを得おだやかを得 ことごとく聲をあげてうたふ
The whole earth is at rest, and is quiet; they break forth into singing.
8 實にまつの樹およびレバノンの香柏さへもなんぢの故により歡びていふ 汝すでに仆たれば樵夫のぼりきたりてわれらを攻ることなしと
Yea, the cypresses rejoice at thee, and the cedars of Lebanon: 'Since thou art laid down, no feller is come up against us.'
The nether-world from beneath is moved for thee to meet thee at thy coming; the shades are stirred up for thee, even all the chief ones of the earth; all the kings of the nations are raised up from their thrones. (Sheol h7585)
10 かれらは皆なんぢに告ていはん 汝もわれらのごとく弱くなりしや 汝もわれらと同じくなりしやと
All they do answer and say unto thee: 'Art thou also become weak as we? Art thou become like unto us?
Thy pomp is brought down to the nether-world, and the noise of thy psalteries; the maggot is spread under thee, and the worms cover thee.' (Sheol h7585)
12 あしたの子明星よいかにして天より隕しや もろもろの國をたふしし者よいかにして斫れて地にたふれしや
How art thou fallen from heaven, O day-star, son of the morning! How art thou cut down to the ground, that didst cast lots over the nations!
13 汝さきに心中におもへらく われ天にのぼり我くらゐを神の星のうへにあげ北の極なる集會の山にざし
And thou saidst in thy heart: 'I will ascend into heaven, above the stars of God will I exalt my throne, and I will sit upon the mount of meeting, in the uttermost parts of the north;
14 たかき雲漢にのぼり至上者のごとくなるべしと
I will ascend above the heights of the clouds; I will be like the Most High.'
Yet thou shalt be brought down to the nether-world, to the uttermost parts of the pit. (Sheol h7585)
16 なんぢを見るものは熟々なんぢを視なんぢに目をとめていはん この人は地をふるはせ列國をうごかし
They that saw thee do narrowly look upon thee, they gaze earnestly at thee: 'Is this the man that made the earth to tremble, that did shake kingdoms;
17 世を荒野のごとくし もろもろの邑をこぼち 捕へたるものをその家にときかへさざりしものなるかと
That made the world as a wilderness, and destroyed the cities thereof; that opened not the house of his prisoners?'
18 もろもろの國の王たちはことごとく皆たふとき狀にておのおのその家にねぶる
All the kings of the nations, all of them, sleep in glory, every one in his own house.
19 然どなんぢは忌きらふべき枝のごとく おのが墓のそとにすてられその周圍には劍にて刺ころされ坑におろされ 石におほはれたる者ありて踐つけらるる屍にことならず
But thou art cast forth away from thy grave like an abhorred offshoot, in the raiment of the slain, that are thrust through with the sword, that go down to the pavement of the pit, as a carcass trodden under foot.
20 汝おのれの國をほろぼし おのれの民をころししが故に かれらとおなじく葬らるることあたはず それ惡をおこなふものの裔はとこしへに名をよばるることなかるべし
Thou shalt not be joined with them in burial, because thou hast destroyed thy land, thou hast slain thy people; the seed of evil-doers shall not be named for ever.
21 先祖のよこしまの故をもて その子孫のために戮場をそなへ 彼等をしてたちて地をとり世界のおもてに邑をみたすことなからしめよ
Prepare ye slaughter for his children for the iniquity of their fathers; that they rise not up, and possess the earth, and fill the face of the world with cities.
22 萬軍のヱホバのたまはく 我立てかれらを攻めバビロンよりその名と遺りたるものとを絶滅し その子その孫をたちほろぼさんと これヱホバの聖言なり
And I will rise up against them, saith the LORD of hosts, and cut off from Babylon name and remnant, and offshoot and offspring, saith the LORD.
23 われバビロンを刺蝟のすみかとし沼とし且ほろびの箒をもてこれを掃除かんと これ萬軍のヱホバのみことばなり
I will also make it a possession for the bittern, and pools of water; and I will sweep it with the besom of destruction, saith the LORD of hosts.
24 萬軍のヱホバ誓をたてて言給はくわがおもひし事はかならず成 わがさだめし事はかならず立ん
The LORD of hosts hath sworn, saying: Surely as I have thought, so shall it come to pass; and as I have purposed, so shall it stand,
25 われアツスリヤ人をわが地にてうちやぶり わが山々にてふみにじらん ここにおいて彼がおきし軛はイスラエル人よりはなれ 彼がおはせし重負はイスラエル人の肩よりはなるべし
That I will break Asshur in My land, and upon My mountains tread him under foot; then shall his yoke depart from off them, and his burden depart from off their shoulder.
26 これは全地のことにつきて定めたる謀略なり 是はもろもろの國のうへに伸したる手なり
This is the purpose that is purposed upon the whole earth; and this is the hand that is stretched out upon all the nations.
27 萬軍のヱホバさだめたまへり誰かこれを破ることを得んや その手をのばしたまへり誰かこれを押返すことを得んや
For the LORD of hosts hath purposed, and who shall disannul it? And His hand is stretched out, and who shall turn it back?
28 アハズ王の死たる年おもにの預言ありき
In the year that king Ahaz died was this burden.
29 曰く ペリシテの全地よなんぢをうちし杖をれたればとて喜ぶなかれ 蛇の根より蝮いでその果はとびかける巨蛇となるべければなり
Rejoice not, O Philistia, all of thee, because the rod that smote thee is broken: for out of the serpent's root shall come forth a basilisk, and his fruit shall be a flying serpent.
30 いと貧しきものはものくひ乏しきものは安然にふさん われ饑饉をもてなんぢの根をしなせ汝がのこれる者をころすべし
And the first-born of the poor shall feed, and the needy shall lie down in safety; and I will kill thy root with famine, and thy remnant shall be slain.
31 門よなげけ邑よさけべ ペリシテよなんぢの全地きえうせたり そはけぶり北よりいできたり その軍兵の列におくるるものなし
Howl, O gate; cry, O city; melt away, O Philistia, all of thee; for there cometh a smoke out of the north, and there is no straggler in his ranks.
32 その國の使者たちに何とこたふべきや 答へていはん ヱホバ、シオンの基をおきたまへり その民のなかの苦しむものは避所をこの中にえん
What then shall one answer the messengers of the nation? That the LORD hath founded Zion, and in her shall the afflicted of His people take refuge.
