< イザヤ書 52 >

1 シオンよ醒よさめよ汝の力を衣よ 聖都ヱルサレムよなんぢの美しき衣をつけよ 今より割禮をうけざる者および潔からざるものふたたび汝にいること無るべければなり
Awake, awake, put on your strength, Zion; put on your beautiful garments, Jerusalem, the holy city, for there shall no more enter into you the uncircumcised and the unclean.
2 なんぢ身の塵をふりおとせ ヱルサレムよ起よすわれ 俘れたるシオンのむすめよ汝がうなじの繩をときすてよ
Shake yourself from the dust. Arise, sit up, Jerusalem. Release yourself from the bonds of your neck, captive daughter of Zion.
3 そはヱホバかく言給ふ なんぢらは價なくして賣られたり 金なくして贖はるべし
For thus says the LORD, "You were sold for nothing; and you shall be redeemed without money."
4 主ヱホバ如此いひ給ふ 曩にわが民エジプトにくだりゆきて彼處にとどまれり アツスリヤ人ゆゑなくして彼等をしへたげたり
For thus says the LORD, "My people went down at the first into Egypt to live there, and the Assyrian oppressed them without cause.
5 ヱホバ宣給く わが民はゆゑなくして俘れたり されば我ここに何をなさん ヱホバのたまはく 彼等をつかさどる者さけびよばはり わが名はつねに終日けがさるるなり
"Now therefore, what do I do here," says the LORD, "seeing that my people are taken away for nothing? Those who rule over them mock," says the LORD. "Because of you, my name is continually all the day blasphemed among the nations.
6 この故にわが民はわが名をしらん このゆゑにその日には彼らこの言をかたるものの我なるをしらん 我ここに在り
Therefore my people shall know my name; in that day they will know that I am he who speaks; look, it is I."
7 よろこびの音信をつたへ平和をつげ 善おとづれをつたへ救をつげ シオンに向ひてなんぢの神はすべ治めたまふといふものの足は山上にありていかに美しきかな
How beautiful on the mountains are the feet of him who brings good news, who publishes peace, who brings good news of good things, who publishes salvation, who says to Zion, "Your God reigns."
8 なんぢが斥候の聲きこゆ かれらはヱホバのシオンに歸り給ふを目と目とあひあはせて視るが故にみな聲をあげてもろともにうたへり
The voice of your watchmen. They lift up the voice, together do they sing; for they shall see eye to eye, when the LORD returns to Zion with compassion.
9 ヱルサレムの荒廢れたるところよ聲をはなちて共にうたふべし ヱホバその民をなぐさめヱルサレムを贖ひたまひたればなり
Break forth into joy, sing together, you waste places of Jerusalem; for the LORD has comforted his people, he has redeemed Jerusalem.
10 ヱホバそのきよき手をもろもろの國人の目のまへにあらはしたまへり 地のもろもろの極までもわれらの神のすくひを見ん
The LORD has made bare his holy arm in the eyes of all the nations; and every part of the earth has seen the salvation of our God.
11 なんぢら去よされよ 彼處をいでて汚れたるものに觸るなかれ その中をいでよ ヱホバの器をになふ者よ なんぢら潔くあれ
Depart, depart, go out from there, and touch no unclean thing. Go out from their midst, and be separate, you who bear the vessels of the LORD.
12 なんぢら急ぎいづるにあらず趨りゆくにあらず ヱホバはなんぢらの前にゆきイスラエルの神はなんぢらの軍後となり給ふべければなり
For you shall not depart in haste, nor shall you leave in flight; for the LORD will go before you, and the God of Israel will be your rear guard.
13 視よわがしもべ智慧をもておこなはん 上りのぼりて甚だたかくならん
Look, my servant shall deal wisely, he shall be exalted and lifted up, and shall be very high.
14 曩にはおほくの人かれを見ておどろきたり(その面貌はそこなはれて人と異なりその形容はおとろへて人の子とことなれり)
Just as many were astonished at you (his appearance was marred more than any man, and his form more than the sons of men),
15 後には彼おほく國民にそそがん 王たち彼によりて口を緘まん そはかれら未だつたへられざることを見いまだ聞ざることを悟るべければなり
so shall he sprinkle many nations; kings shall shut their mouths at him. For that which was not told about him, they will see, and what they have not heard, they will understand.
