< イザヤ書 34 >

1 もろもろの國よちかづきてきけ もろもろの民よ耳をかたぶけよ 地と地にみつるもの世界とせかいより出るすべての者きけ
Come near, you nations, to hear; and listen, you people: let the earth hear, and all that is therein; the world, and all things that come forth of it.
2 ヱホバはよろづの國にむかひて怒り そのよろづの軍にむかひて忿恚り かれらをことごとく滅し かれらを屠らしめたまふ
For the indignation of the LORD is on all nations, and his fury on all their armies: he has utterly destroyed them, he has delivered them to the slaughter.
3 かれらは殺されて抛棄られ その屍の臭氣たちのぼり山はその血にて融されん
Their slain also shall be cast out, and their stink shall come up out of their carcasses, and the mountains shall be melted with their blood.
4 天の萬象はきえうせ もろもろの天は書巻のごとくにまかれん その萬象のおつるは葡萄の葉のおつるがごとく無花果のかれたる葉のおつるが如くならん
And all the host of heaven shall be dissolved, and the heavens shall be rolled together as a scroll: and all their host shall fall down, as the leaf falls off from the vine, and as a falling fig from the fig tree.
5 わが劍は天にてうるほひたり 視よエドムの上にくだり滅亡に定めたる民のうへにくだりて之をさばかん
For my sword shall be bathed in heaven: behold, it shall come down on Idumea, and on the people of my curse, to judgment.
6 ヱホバの劍は血にてみち脂にてこえ小羊と山羊との血 牡羊の腎のあぶらにて肥ゆ ヱホバはボズラにて牲のけものをころしエドムの地にて大にほふることをなし給へり
The sword of the LORD is filled with blood, it is made fat with fatness, and with the blood of lambs and goats, with the fat of the kidneys of rams: for the LORD has a sacrifice in Bozrah, and a great slaughter in the land of Idumea.
7 その屠場には野牛 こうし 牡牛もともに下る そのくには血にてうるほされ その塵はあぶらにて肥さるべし
And the unicorns shall come down with them, and the bullocks with the bulls; and their land shall be soaked with blood, and their dust made fat with fatness.
8 こはヱホバの仇をかへしたまふ日にしてシオンの訟のために報をなしたまふ年なり
For it is the day of the LORD’s vengeance, and the year of recompenses for the controversy of Zion.
9 エドムのもろもろの河はかはりて樹脂となり その塵はかはりて硫磺となり その土はかはりてもゆる樹脂となり
And the streams thereof shall be turned into pitch, and the dust thereof into brimstone, and the land thereof shall become burning pitch.
10 晝も夜もきえずその烟つくる期なく上騰らん かくて世々あれすたれ永遠までもその所をすぐる者なかるべし
It shall not be quenched night nor day; the smoke thereof shall go up for ever: from generation to generation it shall lie waste; none shall pass through it for ever and ever.
11 鵜と刺猬とそこを己がものとなし鷺と鴉とそこにすまん ヱホバそのうへに亂をおこす繩をはり空虛をきたらする錘をさげ給ふべし
But the cormorant and the bittern shall possess it; the owl also and the raven shall dwell in it: and he shall stretch out on it the line of confusion, and the stones of emptiness.
12 國をつぐべき者をたてんとて貴者ふたたび呼集ることをせじ もろもろの諸侯はみな失てなくなるべし
They shall call the nobles thereof to the kingdom, but none shall be there, and all her princes shall be nothing.
13 その殿にはことごとく荊はえ 城にはことごとく刺草と薊とはえ 野犬のすみか駝鳥の場とならん
And thorns shall come up in her palaces, nettles and brambles in the fortresses thereof: and it shall be an habitation of dragons, and a court for owls.
14 野のけものと豺狼とここにあひ 牡山羊その友をよび 鴟鴞もまた宿りてここを安所とせん
The wild beasts of the desert shall also meet with the wild beasts of the island, and the satyr shall cry to his fellow; the screech owl also shall rest there, and find for herself a place of rest.
15 蛇ここに穴をつくり卵をうみてこれを孚しおのれの影の下に子をあつむ 鳶もまたその偶とともに此處にあつまらん
There shall the great owl make her nest, and lay, and hatch, and gather under her shadow: there shall the vultures also be gathered, every one with her mate.
16 なんぢらヱホバの書をつまびらかにたづねて讀べし これらのもの一つも缺ることなく又ひとつもその偶をかくものあらじ そはヱホバの口このことを命じ その靈これらを集めたまふべければなり
Seek you out of the book of the LORD, and read: no one of these shall fail, none shall want her mate: for my mouth it has commanded, and his spirit it has gathered them.
17 ヱホバこれらのものに鬮をひかせ手づから繩をもて量り この地をわけあたへて永くかれらに保たしめ 世々にいたるまでここに住しめたまはん
And he has cast the lot for them, and his hand has divided it to them by line: they shall possess it for ever, from generation to generation shall they dwell therein.
