< イザヤ書 50 >

1 ヱホバかくいひ給ふ わがなんぢらの母をさりたる離書はいづこにありや 我いづれの債主になんぢらを賣わたししや 視よなんぢらはその不義のために賣られ なんぢらの母は汝らの咎戻のために去られたり
Thus saith Jehovah, Where is the bill of your mother’s divorcement, wherewith I have put her away? or which of my creditors is it to whom I have sold you? Behold, for your iniquities were ye sold, and for your transgressions was your mother put away.
2 わがきたりし時なにゆゑ一人もをらざりしや 我よびしとき何故ひとりも答ふるものなかりしや わが手みぢかくして贖ひえざるか われ救ふべき力なからんや 視よわれ叱咤すれば海はかれ河はあれのとなりそのなかの魚は水なきによりかわき死て臭氣をいだすなり
Wherefore, when I came, was there no man? when I called, was there none to answer? Is my hand shortened at all, that it cannot redeem? or have I no power to deliver? Behold, at my rebuke I dry up the sea, I make the rivers a wilderness: their fish stink, because there is no water, and die for thirst.
3 われ黑きころもを天にきせ麁布をもて蔽となす
I clothe the heavens with blackness, and I make sackcloth their covering.
4 主ヱホバは敎をうけしものの舌をわれにあたへ言をもて疲れたるものを扶支ふることを知得しめたまふ また朝ごとに醒しわが耳をさまして敎をうけし者のごとく聞ことを得しめたまふ
The Lord Jehovah hath given me the tongue of them that are taught, that I may know how to sustain with words him that is weary: he wakeneth morning by morning, he wakeneth mine ear to hear as they that are taught.
5 主ヱホバわが耳をひらき給へり われは逆ふことをせず退くことをせざりき
The Lord Jehovah hath opened mine ear, and I was not rebellious, neither turned away backward.
6 われを撻つものにわが背をまかせわが鬚をぬくものにわが頬をまかせ 恥と唾とをさくるために面をおほふことをせざりき
I gave my back to the smiters, and my cheeks to them that plucked off the hair; I hid not my face from shame and spitting.
7 主ヱホバわれを助けたまはん この故にわれ恥ることなかるべし 我わが面を石の如くして恥しめらるることなきを知る
For the Lord Jehovah will help me; therefore have I not been confounded: therefore have I set my face like a flint, and I know that I shall not be put to shame.
8 われを義とするもの近きにあり たれか我とあらそはんや われら相共にたつべし わが仇はたれぞや近づききたれ
He is near that justifieth me; who will contend with me? let us stand up together: who is mine adversary? let him come near to me.
9 主ヱホバわれを助け給はん 誰かわれを罪せんや 視よかれらはみな衣のごとくふるび蠧のためにくひつくされん
Behold, the Lord Jehovah will help me; who is he that shall condemn me? behold, they all shall wax old as a garment; the moth shall eat them up.
10 汝等のうちヱホバをおそれその僕の聲をきくものは誰ぞや 暗をあゆみて光をえざるともヱホバの名をたのみおのれの神にたよれ
Who is among you that feareth Jehovah, that obeyeth the voice of his servant? he that walketh in darkness, and hath no light, let him trust in the name of Jehovah, and rely upon his God.
11 火をおこし火把を帶るものよ汝等みなその火のほのほのなかをあゆめ 又なんぢらの燃したる火把のなかをあゆめ なんぢら斯のごとき事をわが手よりうけて悲みのうちに臥べし
Behold, all ye that kindle a fire, that gird yourselves about with firebrands; walk ye in the flame of your fire, and among the brands that ye have kindled. This shall ye have of my hand; ye shall lie down in sorrow.
