< イザヤ書 39 >

1 そのころバラダンの子バビロン王メロダクバラダン、ヒゼキヤが病をうれへて愈しことをききければ書と禮物とをおくれり
At that time Merodach Baladan, the son of Baladan, king of Babylon, sent a letter and a present to Hezekiah, for he had heard that he had been sick and was recovered.
2 ヒゼキヤその使者のきたるによりて喜びこれに財物 金銀 香料 たふとき油ををさめたる家およびすべての軍器ををさめたる家また庫のなかなる物をことごとく見す おほよそヒゼキヤのいへの裏にあるものと全國のうちにあるものと 見せざるものは一もあらざりき
And Hezekiah was delighted with them, and showed the embassy his treasure-house, the silver, and the gold, and the spices, and the precious oil, and his whole armory, and all that was found in his treasures. There was nothing in his house, nor in all his dominion, which Hezekiah did not show them.
3 ここに預言者イザヤ、ヒゼキヤ王のもとに來りていひけるは この人々はなにをいひしや何處よりなんぢのもとに來りしや ヒゼキヤ曰けるは かれらはとほき國よりバビロンより我にきたれり
Then came Isaiah the prophet to King Hezekiah, and said to him, What did these men say, and whence did they come to thee? And Hezekiah said, They came to me from a distant country, from Babylon.
4 イザヤいふ 彼等はなんぢの家にてなにを見たりしや ヒゼキヤ答ふ かれらはわが家にあるものを皆みたり又わが庫のなかにあるものは一つをもかれらに見せざるものなかりき
Then said he, What have they seen in thy house? And Hezekiah answered: All that is in my house have they seen. There is nothing in my treasures which I have not shown them.
5 イザヤ、ヒゼキヤにいふ なんぢ萬軍のヱホバの言をきけ
Then said Isaiah to Hezekiah, hear the word of Jehovah of hosts,
6 みよ日きたらん なんぢの家のものなんぢの列祖がけふまで蓄へたるものは皆バビロンにたづさへゆかれて遺るもの一もなかるべし 是はヱホバのみことばなり
Behold, the days shall come, when all that is in thy house, and that thy fathers have treasured up to this day, shall be carried away to Babylon. Nothing shall be left, saith Jehovah.
7 なんぢの身より生れいでん者もとらはれ寺人とせられてバビロン王の宮のうちにあらん
And of thy sons, which shall issue from thee, which thou shalt beget, shall they take away, and they shall he eunuchs in the palace of the king of Babylon.
8 ヒゼキヤ、イザヤにいひけるは 汝がかたるヱホバのみことばは善し また云 わが世にあるほどは太平と眞理とあるべしと
Then said Hezekiah to Isaiah, Good is the word of Jehovah, which thou hast spoken. For, said he, there shall be peace and security in my days.
