イザヤ書 19
1 エジプトにかかる重負のよげん いはく／ヱホバははやき雲にのりてエジプトに來りたまふ エジプトのもろもろの偶像はその前にふるひをののき エジプト人のこころはその衷にて消ゆかん
The prophecy concerning Egypt. Behold, Jehovah rideth upon a swift cloud, And cometh to Egypt; The gods of Egypt tremble at his presence, And the heart of Egypt melteth within her.
2 我エジプト人をたけび勇ましめてエジプト人を攻しめん斯てかれら各自その兄弟をせめおのおのその鄰をせめ 邑は邑をせめ國はくにを攻べし
“I will set the Egyptians against the Egyptians; Brother shall fight against brother, And neighbor against neighbor; City against city, And kingdom against kingdom.
3 エジプト人の靈魂うせてその中むなしくならん われその謀略をほろぼすべし かれらは偶像および呪文をとなふるもの巫女魔術者にもとむることを爲ん
The spirit of Egypt shall fail within her, And her devices I will bring to naught. Then shall they consult the idols, and the sorcerers, And the necromancers, and the wizards.
4 われエジプト人を苛酷なる主人の手にわたさん あらあらしき王かれらを治むべし是主萬軍のヱホバの聖言なり
But I will give up the Egyptians to the hands of a cruel lord, And a fierce king shall rule over them,” Saith the Lord, Jehovah of hosts.
5 海の水はつき河もまた涸てかわかん
Then shall the waters fail from the river, Yea, the river shall be wasted and dried up.
6 また河々はくさき臭をはなちエジプトの堭はみな漸次にへりてかわき葦と蘆とかれはてん
The streams shall become putrid; The canals of Egypt shall be emptied and dried up; The reed and the rush shall wither.
7 ナイルのほとりの草原ナイルの岸にほどちかき所すべてナイルの最寄にまきたる者はことごとく枯てちりうせん
The meadows by the river, by the borders of the river, And all that groweth by the river, Shall wither, be blasted, and be no more.
8 漁者もまた歎き すべてナイルに釣をたるる者はかなしみ網を水のうへに施ものはおとろふべし
Then shall the fishermen mourn; All they that cast the hook into the river shall lament, And they that spread nets upon the face of the waters shall languish.
9 練たる麻にて物つくるもの白布を織ものは恥あわて
They, also, that work in flax, And they that weave white linen, shall be confounded.
10 その柱はくだけ一切のやとはれたる者のこころ憂ひかなしまん
Her pillars are broken down, And all who labor for hire are grieved in heart.
11 誠やゾアンの諸侯は愚なりパロの最もかしこき議官のはかりごとは癡鈍べし 然ばなんぢら何でパロにむかひて我はかしこきものの子 われは古への王の子なりといふを得んや
Surely the princes of Zoan are fools; The wise counsellors of Pharaoh have been stupid in their counsels. How, then, can ye say to Pharaoh, “I am the son of the wise, The son of ancient kings”?
12 なんぢの智者いづくにありや 彼らもし萬軍のヱホバの定めたまひしエジプトに係はることを暁得ばこれをなんぢに告るこそよけれ
Where are they now, thy wise men? Let them tell thee now, so that men may know it, What Jehovah of hosts hath determined concerning Egypt!
13 ゾアンのもろもろの諸侯は愚かなり ノフの諸侯は惑ひたり かれらはエジプトのもろもろの支派の隅石なるに却てエジプトをあやまらせたり
The princes of Zoan are become fools; The princes of Noph are deceived, Even the chiefs of her tribes have caused Egypt to err.
14 ヱホバ曲れる心をその中にまじへ給ひしにより 彼等はエジプトのすべて作ところを謬らせ恰かも酔る人の哇吐ときによろめくが如くならしめたり
Jehovah hath mingled within her a spirit of perverseness, And they have caused Egypt to err in all her works, As a drunkard staggereth in his vomit.
15 エジプトにて或は首あるひは尾あるひは椶櫚のえだまたは葦すべてその作ところの工なかるべし
There shall be nothing which can be done by Egypt, By the head, or the tail, the palm-branch, or the rush.
16 その日エジプトは婦女のごとくならん 萬軍のヱホバの動かしたまふ手のその上にうごくが故におそれをののくべし
In that day shall the Egyptians be like women; They shall tremble and fear On account of the shaking of the hand of Jehovah of hosts, Which he shall shake against them.
17 ユダの地はエジプトに懼れらる この事をかたりつぐれば聽くもの皆おそる これ萬軍のヱホバ、エジプトに對ひて定めたまへる謀略の故によるなり
The land of Judah shall be a terror to Egypt; Every one to whom it is mentioned shall tremble On account of the purpose of Jehovah of hosts, Which he hath determined against them.
18 その日エジプトの地に五の邑あり カナンの方言をかたりまた萬軍のヱホバに誓ひをたてん その中のひとつは日邑ととなへらるべし
In that day there shall be five cities in the land of Egypt Speaking the language of Canaan, And swearing by Jehovah of hosts; One of them shall be called the City of the Sun.
19 その日エジプトの地の中にヱホバをまつる一つの祭壇あり その境にヱホバをまつる一柱あらん
In that day there shall be an altar to Jehovah in the midst of the land of Egypt, And in the border of it a pillar to Jehovah,
20 これエジプトの地にて萬軍のヱホバの徴となり證となるなり かれら暴虐者の故によりてヱホバに號求むべければ ヱホバは救ふもの護るものを遣してこれを助けたまはん
Which shall be a sign and a witness For Jehovah of hosts in the land of Egypt, That they cried to Jehovah on account of their oppressors, And he sent them a saviour, and a defender, who delivered them.
21 ヱホバおのれをエジプトに知せたまはん その日エジプト人はヱホバをしり犠牲と祭物とをもて之につかへん 誓願をヱホバにたてて成とぐべし
Thus shall Jehovah be made known to Egypt, And the Egyptians shall know Jehovah in that day, And shall offer him sacrifices and oblations; They shall make vows to Jehovah, and perform them.
22 ヱホバ、エジプトを撃たまはん ヱホバこれを撃これを醫したまふ この故にかれらヱホバに歸らん ヱホバその懇求をいれて之をいやし給はん
Thus Jehovah will smite Egypt; he will smite and heal her; They shall return to Jehovah; Therefore will he hear and heal them.
23 その日エジプトよりアツスリヤにかよふ大路ありて アツスリヤ人はエジプトにきたり エジプト人はアツスリヤにゆき エジプト人とアツスリヤ人と相共につかふることをせん
In that day shall there he a highway from Egypt to Assyria, And the Assyrian shall come into Egypt, And the Egyptian into Assyria, And the Egyptians shall worship with the Assyrians.
24 その日イスラエルはエジプトとアツスリヤとを共にし三あひならび地のうへにて福祉をうくる者となるべし
In that day shall Israel be the third In connection with Egypt and Assyria, A blessing in the midst of the earth.
25 萬軍のヱホバこれを祝して言たまはく わが民なるエジプトわが手の工なるアツスリヤわが產業なるイスラエルは福ひなるかな
Jehovah of hosts shall bless them, and say, Blessed be Egypt, my people, And Assyria, the work of my hands, And Israel, my inheritance!
