< イザヤ書 30 >
1 ヱホバのたまはく 悖るる子輩はわざはひなるかな かれら謀略をすれども我によりてせず 盟をむすべどもわが靈にしたがはず ますます罪につみをくはへん
Wo to the rebellious children, sayth the Lord, that take counsell, but not of me, and couer with a couering, but not by my spirit, that they may lay sinne vpon sinne:
2 かれらわが口にとはずしてエジプトに下りゆきパロの力をかりておのれを强くしエジプトの蔭によらん
Which walke forth to goe downe into Egypt (and haue not asked at my mouth) to strengthen them selues with the strength of Pharaoh, and trust in the shadowe of Egypt.
3 パロのちからは反てなんぢらの恥となり エジプトの蔭によるは反てなんぢらの辱かしめとなるべし
But the strength of Pharaoh shalbe your shame, and the trust in the shadow of Egypt your confusion.
4 かれの君たちはゾアンにあり かれの使者たちはハネスにきたれり
For his princes were at Zoan, and his Ambassadours came vnto Hanes.
5 かれらは皆おのれを益することあたはざる民によりて恥をいだく かの民はたすけとならず益とならず かへりて恥となり謗となれり
They shalbe all ashamed of the people that cannot profite them, nor helpe nor doe them good, but shalbe a shame and also a reproche.
6 南のかたの牲畜にかかる重負のよげん 曰く/かれらその財貨を若き驢馬のかたにおはせ その寳物を駱駝の背におはせて 牝獅 牡獅 まむし及びとびかける蛇のいづる苦しみと艱難との國をすぎて 己をえきすること能はざる民にゆかん
The burden of the beasts of the South, in a land of trouble and anguish, from whence shall come the yong and olde lyon, the viper and fierie flying serpent against them that shall beare their riches vpon the shoulders of the coltes, and their treasures vpon the bounches of the camels, to a people that cannot profite.
7 そのエジプトの助はいたづらにして虛し このゆゑに我はこれを休みをるラハブとよべり
For the Egyptians are vanitie, and they shall helpe in vaine. Therefore haue I cried vnto her, Their strength is to sit still.
8 いま往てこれをその前にて牌にしるし書にのせ 後の世に傳へてとこしへに證とすべし
Now go, and write it before them in a table, and note it in a booke that it may be for the last day for euer and euer:
9 これは悖れる民いつはりをいふ子輩ヱホバの律法をきくことをせざる子輩なり
That it is a rebellious people, lying children, and children that would not heare the law of the Lord.
10 かれら見るものに對ひていふ見るなかれと 默示をうる者にむかひていふ直きことを示すなかれ 滑かなることをかたれ虛僞をしめせ
Which say vnto the Seers, See not: and to the Prophets, Prophecie not vnto vs right things: but speake flattering things vnto vs: prophecie errours.
11 なんぢら大道をさり逕をはなれ われらが前にイスラエルの聖者をあらしむるなかれと
Depart out of the way: go aside out of the path: cause the holy one of Israel to cease from vs.
12 此によりてイスラエルの聖者かくいひ給ふ なんぢらこの言をあなどり暴虐と邪曲とをたのみて之にたよれり
Therefoe thus saith the holy one of Israel, Because you haue cast off this worde, and trust in violence, and wickednes, and stay thereupon,
13 斯るがゆゑにこの不義なんぢらには凸出ておちんとするたかき垣のさけたるところのごとく その破壞にはかに暫しが間にきたらんと
Therefore this iniquitie shalbe vnto you as a breach that falleth, or a swelling in an hie wall, whose breaking commeth suddenly in a moment.
14 主これを破りあだかも陶工の瓶をくだきやぶるがごとくして惜みたまはず その碎のなかに爐より火をとり池より水をくむほどの一片だに見出すことなからん
And the breaking thereof is like the breaking of a potters pot, which is broken without pitie, and in the breaking thereof is not found a sheard to take fire out of the hearth, or to take water out of the pit.
15 主ヱホバ、イスラエルの聖者かくいひたまへり なんぢら立かへりて靜かにせば救をえ 平穩にして依賴まば力をうべしと 然どなんぢらこの事をこのまざりき
For thus sayd the Lord God, the Holy one of Israel, In rest and quietnes shall ye be saued: in quietnes and in confidence shall be your strength, but ye would not.
16 なんぢら反ていへり 否われら馬にのりて逃走らんと この故になんぢら逃走らん 又いへりわれら疾きものに乗んと この故になんぢらを追もの疾かるべし
For ye haue sayd, No, but we wil flee away vpon horses. Therefore shall ye flee. We will ride vpon the swiftest. Therefore shall your persecuters be swifter.
17 ひとり叱咤すれば千人にげはしり 五人しつたすればなんぢら逃走りて その遺るものは僅かに山嶺にある杆のごとく 岡のうへにある旗のごとくならん
A thousand as one shall flee at the rebuke of one: at the rebuke of fiue shall ye flee, till ye be left as a ship maste vpon the top of a mountaine, and as a beaken vpon an hill.
18 ヱホバこれにより俟てのち恩惠を汝等にほどこし これにより上りてのちなんぢらを憐れみたまはん ヱホバは公平の神にましませり 凡てこれを俟望むものは福ひなり
Yet therefore will the Lord waite, that he may haue mercy vpon you, and therefore wil he be exalted, that hee may haue compassion vpon you: for the Lord is the God of iudgement. Blessed are all they that waite for him.
19 シオンにをりヱルサレムにをる民よ なんぢは再びなくことあらじ そのよばはる聲に應じて必ずなんぢに惠をほどこしたまはん 主ききたまふとき直にこたへたまふべし
Surely a people shall dwell in Zion, and in Ierusalem: thou shalt weepe no more: he wil certainly haue mercy vpon thee at the voyce of thy crye: when he heareth thee, he wil answere thee.
20 主はなんぢらになやみの糧とくるしみの水とをあたへ給はん なんぢを敎るもの再びかくれじ 汝の目はその敎るものを恒にみるべし
And when the Lord hath giuen you the bread of aduersitie, and the water of affliction, thy raine shalbe no more kept backe, but thine eyes shall see thy raine.
21 なんぢ右にゆくも左にゆくもその耳に これは道なりこれを歩むべしと後邊にてかたるをきかん
And thine eares shall heare a worde behind thee, saying, This is the way, walke ye in it, when thou turnest to the right hand, and when thou turnest to the left.
22 又なんぢら白銀をおほひし刻める像 こがねをはりし鑄たる像をけがれとし 穢物のごとく打棄ていはん 去れと
And ye shall pollute the couering of the images of siluer, and the riche ornament of thine images of golde, and cast them away as a menstruous cloth, and thou shalt say vnto it, Get thee hence.
23 なんぢが地にまく種に主は雨をあたへ また地になりいづる糧をたまふ その土產こえて豐かならん その日なんぢの家畜はひろき牧場に草をはむべし
Then shall hee giue raine vnto thy seede, when thou shalt sowe the ground, and bread of the increase of the earth, and it shalbe fat and as oyle: in that day shall thy cattell be fed in large pastures.
24 地をたがへす牛と驢馬とは團扇にてあふぎ箕にてとほし鹽をくはへたる飼料をくらはん
The oxen also and the yong asses, that till the ground, shall eate cleane prouender, which is winowed with the shoouel and with the fanne.
25 大なる殺戮の日やぐらのたふるる時もろもろのたかき山もろもろのそびえたる嶺に河とみづの流とあるべし
And vpon euery hie mountaine, and vpon euery hie hill shall there be riuers and streames of waters, in the day of the great slaughter, when the towers shall fall.
26 かくてヱホバその民のきずをつつみ そのうたれたる創痍をいやしたまふ日には月のひかりは日の光のごとく日のひかりは七倍をくはへて七の日のひかりの如くならん
Moreouer, the light of the moone shall be as the light of the sunne, and the light of the sunne shalbe seuen folde, and like the light of seuen dayes in the day that the Lord shall binde vp the breach of his people, and heale the stroke of their wound.
27 視よヱホバの名はとほき所よりきたり そのはげしき怒はもえあがる焰のごとく その唇はいきどほりにてみち その舌はやきつくす火のごとく
Beholde, the Name of the Lord commeth from farre, his face is burning, and the burden thereof is heauy: his lips are full of indignation, and his tongue is as a deuouring fire.
28 その氣息はみなぎりて項にまでいたる流のごとし 且ほろびの篩にてもろもろの國をふるひ又まどはす韁をもろもろの民の口におきたまはん
And his spirit is as a riuer that ouerfloweth vp to the necke: it deuideth asunder, to fanne the nations with the fanne of vanitie, and there shall be a bridle to cause them to erre in the chawes of the people.
29 なんぢらは歌うたはん節會をまもる夜のごとし なんぢらは心によろこばん笛をならしヱホバの山にきたりイスラエルの磐につくときの如し
But there shall be a song vnto you as in the night, when solemne feast is kept: and gladnes of heart, as he that commeth with a pipe to goe vnto the mount of the Lord, to the mightie one of Israel.
30 ヱホバはその稜威のこゑをきかしめ 烈しき怒をはなちて燒つくす火のほのほと暴風と大雨と雹とをもて その臂のくだることを示したまはん
And the Lord shall cause his glorious voyce to be heard, and shall declare the lighting downe of his arme with the anger of his countenance, and flame of a deuouring fire, with scattering and tempest, and hailestones.
31 ヱホバのこゑによりてアツスリヤ人はくじけん 主はこれを笞にてうち給ふべし
For with the voyce of the Lord shall Asshur be destroyed, which smote with the rod.
32 ヱホバの豫じめさだめたまへる杖をアツスリヤのうへにくはへたまふごとに 鼓をならし琴をひかん 主はうごきふるふ戰闘をもてかれらとたたかひ給ふべし
And in euery place that ye staffe shall passe, it shall cleaue fast, which the Lord shall lay vpon him with tabrets and harpes: and with battels, and lifting vp of hands shall he fight against it.
33 トペテは往古よりまうけられ また王のために備へられたり これを深くしこれを廣くしここに火とおほくの薪とをつみおきたり ヱホバの氣息これを硫黄のながれのごとくに燃さん
For Tophet is prepared of olde: it is euen prepared for the King: hee hath made it deepe and large: the burning thereof is fire and much wood: the breath of the Lord, like a riuer of brimstone, doeth kindle it.
