< イザヤ書 33 >

1 禍ひなるかななんぢ害はれざるに人をそこなひ 欺かれざるに人をあざむけり なんぢが害ふこと終らば汝そこなはれ なんぢが欺くことはてなば汝あざむかるべし
Alas! thou plunderer when, thou, hadst not been plundered, And thou traitor when they had not betrayed thee: When thou hast ceased plundering, thou shalt be plundered, When thou hast left off betraying, they shall betray thee.
2 ヱホバよわれらを惠み給へわれらなんぢを俟望めり なんぢ朝ごとにわれらの臂となり また患難のときにわれらの救となりたまへ
O Yahweh! shew us favour, —For thee, have we waited, —Be thou their arm every morning, Yea our salvation in the time of distress.
3 なりとどろく聲によりてもろもろの民にげはしり なんぢの起たまふによりてもろもろの國はちりうせぬ
At the noise of a tumult, the peoples retreated, —When thou didst lift thyself up, nations were scattered.
4 蟊賊のものをはみつくすがごとく人なんぢらの財をとり盡さん また蝗のとびつどふがごとく人なんぢらの財にとびつどふべし
Then shall your spoil be gathered as the gathering of the caterpillar, —As the swift running of locusts, is he about to run upon them.
5 ヱホバは最たかし高處にすみたまふなり ヱホバはシオンに公正と正義とを充せたまひたり
Exalted is Yahweh, for he inhabiteth a height, —He hath filled Zion with justice and righteousness.
6 なんぢの代はかたくたち 救と智惠と知識とはゆたかにあらん ヱホバをおそるるは國の寳なり
So shall a wealth of deliverances, wisdom and knowledge, become the stability of thy times, —the reverence of Yahweh, the same is his treasure.
7 視よかれらの勇士は外にありてさけび 和をもとむる使者はいたく哭く
Lo! their heroes, have cried out openly, —the messengers of peace, in bitterness, continue weeping [they say]:
8 大路あれすたれて旅客たえ 敵は契約をやぶり諸邑をなみし人をもののかずとせず
The highways are deserted, The passer-by on the path, hath ceased, —He hath broken covenant, He hath despised cities, He hath made no account of men.
9 地はうれへおとろへ レバノンは恥らひて枯れ シヤロンはアラバの如くなり バシヤンとカルメルとはその葉をおとす
The land mourneth, languisheth, Lebanon, displayeth shame, is withered, —Sharon, hath become, as the waste plain, And Bashan and Carmel are shaking off their leaves.
10 ヱホバ言給はく われ今おきん今たたん 今みづからを高くせん
Now, will I arise, Saith Yahweh, Now, will I lift myself up, Now, will I be exalted!
11 なんぢらの孕むところは枇糠のごとく なんぢらの生ところは藁のごとし なんぢらの氣息は火となりてなんぢらを食ひつくさん
Ye shall conceive chaff Ye shall bring forth stubble, —Your own breath, like fire, shall devour you.
12 もろもろの民はやかれて灰のごとくなり 荊のきられて火にもやされたるが如くならん
So shall peoples, become, as the burnings of lime, —As thorns lopped off, with fire, shall they be burned.
13 なんぢら遠にあるものよ わが行ひしことをきけ なんぢら近にあるものよ わが能力をしれ
Hear—ye that are far off. what I have done, And know—ye that are near my might:
14 シオンの罪人はおそる 戰慄はよこしまなる者にのぞめり われらの中たれか燒つくす火に止ることを得んや 我儕のうち誰かとこしへに燒るなかに止るをえんや
Terror-stricken in Zion, —are sinners, Shuddering hath seized the impious, —Who among us can sojourn with a fire that devoureth? Who among us can sojourn with burnings age-abiding?
15 義をおこなふもの直をかたるもの虐げてえたる利をいとひすつるもの手をふりて賄賂をとらざるもの 耳をふさぎて血をながす謀略をきかざるもの 目をとぢて惡をみざる者
He that walketh righteously, And speaketh uprightly, —He that refuseth the gain of exactions That shaketh his hands free from holding a bribe, That stoppeth his ear from hearkening to deeds of blood, And shutteth his eyes from giving countenance to wrong,
16 かかる人はたかき處にすみ かたき磐はその櫓となり その糧はあたへられその水はともしきことなからん
He, the heights, shall inhabit, A stronghold of crags, shall be his refuge, —His bread, hath been delivered, His waters, have been made sure,
17 なんぢの目はうるはしき狀なる王を見 とほくひろき國をみるべし
Of a king, in his beauty, shall thine eyes have vision: They shall see a land that stretcheth afar.
18 汝の心はかの懼しかりしことどもを思ひいでん 會計せし者はいづくにありや 貢をはかりし者はいづくにありや 櫓をかぞへし者はいづくにありや
Thy heart, may murmur in terror, —Where is the scribe? Where—the receiver? Where—he that maketh a list of the towers?
19 汝ふたたび暴民をみざるべし かの民の言語はふかくして悟りがたくその舌は異にして解がたし
The fierce people, shalt thou not see, —The people of too deep a lip to be understood, of too barbarous a tongue for thee to comprehend.
20 われらの節會の邑シオンを見よ なんぢの目はやすらかなる居所となれるヱルサレムを見ん ヱルサレムはうつさるることなき幕屋にして その杙はとこしへにぬかれず その繩は一すぢだに斷れざるなり
Look thou on Zion, the city of our appointed feast, —Thine own eyes, shall see Jerusalem—A home of comfort A tent which shall not be packed up—Whose pins shall not be pulled out, for ever, And none of, whose cords, shall be broken.
21 ヱホバ我らとともに彼處にいまして稜威をあらはし給はん 斯てそのところはひろき川ひろき流あるところとなりて その中には漕舟もいらず巨艦もすぐることなかるべし
But, there shall Yahweh be our majestic one, A place of rivers—streams broad on both hands, Wherein shall go no galley with oars, Neither shall majestic ship traverse it;
22 ヱホバはわれらを鞫きたまふもの ヱホバはわれらに律法をたてたまひし者 ヱホバはわれらの王にましまして我儕をすくひ給ふべければなり
For, Yahweh is our judge, Yahweh, is our lawgiver, —Yahweh, is our king, He will save us!
23 なんぢの船纜はとけたり その桅杆のもとを結びかたむることあたはず 帆をあぐることあたはず その時おほくの財をわかち跛者までも掠物あらん
Loosed are thy ropes, —They cannot strengthen the socket of their mast They have not unfurled a sail Now, can be apportioned spoil, in abundance, The lame, have captured prey!
24 かしこに住るものの中われ病りといふ者なし彼處にをる民の咎はゆるされん
Neither shall the inhabitant say. I am sick, —the people who dwell therein, have been forgiven iniquity.
