イザヤ書 56
1 ヱホバ如此いひ給ふ なんぢら公平をまもり正義をおこなふべし わが救のきたるはちかく わが義のあらはるるは近ければなり
Thus says the LORD, "Keep justice, and do righteousness; for my salvation is near to come, and my righteousness to be revealed.
2 安息日をまもりて汚さず その手をおさへて惡きことをなさず 斯おこなふ人かく堅くまもる人の子はさいはひなり
Blessed is the man who does this, and the son of man who holds it fast; who keeps the Sabbath from profaning it, and keeps his hand from doing any evil."
3 ヱホバにつらなれる異邦人はいふなかれ ヱホバ必ず我をその民より分ち給はんと 寺人もまたいふなかれ われは枯たる樹なりと
Neither let the foreigner, who has joined himself to the LORD, speak, saying, "The LORD will surely separate me from his people"; neither let the eunuch say, "Look, I am a dry tree."
4 ヱホバ如此いひたまふ わが安息日をまもり わが悦ぶことをえらみて我が契約を堅くまもる寺人には
For thus says the LORD, "To the eunuchs who keep my Sabbaths, and choose the things that please me, and hold fast my covenant:
5 我わが家のうちにてわが垣のうちにて子にも女にもまさる記念のしるしと名とをあたへ 並とこしへの名をたまふて絶ることなからしめん
to them I will give in my house and within my walls a memorial and a name better than of sons and of daughters; I will give them an everlasting name, that shall not be cut off.
6 またヱホバにつらなりこれに事へ ヱホバの名を愛しその僕となり 安息日をまもりて汚すことなく凡てわが契約をかたくまもる異邦人は
Also the foreigners who join themselves to the LORD, to minister to him, and to love the name of the LORD, to be his servants, everyone who keeps the Sabbath from profaning it, and holds fast my covenant;
7 我これをわが聖山にきたらせ わが祈の家のうちにて樂ましめん かれらの燔祭と犠牲とはわが祭壇のうへに納めらるべし わが家はすべての民のいのりの家ととなへらるべければなり
even them will I bring to my holy mountain, and make them joyful in my house of prayer: their burnt offerings and their sacrifices shall be accepted on my altar; for my house will be called a house of prayer for all peoples."
8 イスラエルの放逐れたるものを集めたまふ主ヱホバのたまはく 我さらに人をあつめて旣にあつめられたる者にくはへん
The LORD, who gathers the outcasts of Israel, says, "Yet will I gather others to him, besides his own who are gathered."
9 野獸よみなきたりてくらへ 林にをるけものよ皆きたりてくらへ
All you animals of the field, come to devour, all you animals in the forest.
10 斥候はみな瞽者にしてしることなし みな唖なる犬にして吠ることあたはず みな夢みるもの臥ゐるもの眠ることをこのむ者なり
His watchmen are blind, they are all without knowledge; they are all mute dogs, they can't bark; dreaming, lying down, loving to slumber.
11 この犬はむさぼること甚だしくして飽ことをしらず かれらは悟ることを得ざる牧者にして皆おのが道にむかひゆき 何れにをる者もおのおの己の利をおもふ
Yes, the dogs are greedy, they can never have enough; and these are shepherds who can't understand: they have all turned to their own way, each one to his gain, from every quarter.
12 かれら互にいふ請われ酒をたづさへきたらん われら濃酒にのみあかん かくて明日もなほ今日のごとく大にみち足はせんと
"Come," say they, "I will get wine, and we will fill ourselves with strong drink; and tomorrow shall be as this day, great beyond measure."
