< イザヤ書 58 >

1 大によばはりて聲ををしむなかれ 汝のこゑをラッパのごとくあげ わが民にその愆をつげヤコブの家にその罪をつげしめせ
Crye aloude, spare not: lift vp thy voyce like a trumpet, and shewe my people their transgression, and to the house of Iaakob, their sinnes.
2 かれらは日々われを尋求めわが途をしらんことをこのむ 義をおこなひ神の法をすてざる國のごとく義しき法をわれにもとめ神と相近づくことをこのめり
Yet they seeke me dayly, and will knowe my wayes, euen as a nation that did righteously, and had not forsaken the statutes of their God: they aske of me the ordinances of iustice: they wil drawe neere vnto God, saying,
3 かれらはいふ われら斷食するになんぢ見たまはず われら心をくるしむるになんぢ知たまはざるは何ぞやと 視よなんぢらの斷食の日にはおのがこのむ作をなし その工人をことごとく惱めつかふ
Wherefore haue we fasted, and thou seest it not? we haue punished our selues, and thou regardest it not. Beholde, in the day of your fast you will seeke your will, and require all your dettes.
4 視よなんぢら斷食するときは相あらそひ相きそひ惡の拳をもて人をうつ なんぢらの今のだんじきはその聲をうへに聞えしめんとにあらざるなり
Beholde, ye fast to strife and debate, and to smite with the fist of wickednesse: ye shall not fast as ye doe to day, to make your voyce to be heard aboue.
5 斯のごとき斷食はわが悦ぶところのものならんや かくのごときは人その靈魂をなやますの日ならんや その首を葦のごとくにふし麁服と灰とをその下にしくをもて斷食の日またヱホバに納らるる日ととなふべけんや
Is it such a fast that I haue chosen, that a man should afflict his soule for a day, and to bowe downe his head, as a bull rush, and to lie downe in sackecloth and ashes? wilt thou call this a fasting, or an acceptable day to the Lord?
6 わが悦ぶところの斷食はあくの繩をほどき 軛のつなをとき虐げらるるものを放ちさらしめ すべての軛ををるなどの事にあらずや
Is not this the fasting, that I haue chosen, to loose the bandes of wickednes, to take off the heauie burdens, and to let the oppressed goe free, and that ye breake euery yoke?
7 また饑たる者になんぢのパンを分ちあたへ さすらへる貧民をなんぢの家にいれ裸かなるものを見てこれに衣せ おのが骨肉に身をかくさざるなどの事にあらずや
Is it not to deale thy bread to the hungry, and that thou bring the poore that wander, vnto thine house? when thou seest the naked, that thou couer him, and hide not thy selfe from thine owne flesh?
8 しかる時はなんぢのひかり暁の如くにあらはれいで 汝すみやかに愈さるることを得 なんぢの義はなんぢの前にゆき ヱホバの榮光はなんぢの軍後となるべし
Then shall thy light breake foorth as the morning, and thine health shall grow speedily: thy righteousnes shall goe before thee, and the glorie of the Lord shall embrace thee.
9 また汝よぶときはヱホバ答へたまはん なんぢ叫ぶときは我ここに在りといひ給はん/もし汝のなかより軛をのぞき指點をのぞき惡きことをかたるを除き
Then shalt thou call, and the Lord shall answere: thou shalt cry and hee shall say, Here I am: if thou take away from the mids of thee the yoke, the putting foorth of the finger, and wicked speaking:
10 なんぢの靈魂の欲するものをも饑たる者にほどこし 苦しむものの心を滿足しめば なんぢの光くらきにてりいで なんぢの闇は晝のごとくならん
If thou powre out thy soule to the hungrie, and refresh the troubled soule: then shall thy light spring out in the darkenes, and thy darkenes shalbe as the noone day.
11 ヱホバは常になんぢをみちびき 乾けるところにても汝のこころを滿足しめ なんぢの骨をかたうし給はん なんぢは潤ひたる園のごとく水のたえざる泉のごとくなるべし
And the Lord shall guide thee continually, and satisfie thy soule in drought, and make fat thy bones: and thou shalt be like a watred garden, and like a spring of water, whose waters faile not.
12 汝よりいづる者はひさしく荒廢れたる所をおこし なんぢは累代やぶれたる基をたてん 人なんぢをよびて破隙をおぎなふ者といひ 市街をつくろひてすむべき所となす者といふべし
And they shalbe of thee, that shall builde the olde waste places: thou shalt rayse vp the foundations for many generations, and thou shalt be called the repairer of the breach and the restorer of the pathes to dwell in.
13 もし安息日になんぢの歩行をとどめ 我聖日になんぢの好むわざをおこなはず 安息日をとなへて樂日となし ヱホバの聖日をとなへて尊むべき日となし 之をたふとみて己が道をおこなはず おのが好むわざをなさず おのが言をかたらずば
If thou turne away thy foote from the Sabbath, from doing thy will on mine holy day, and call the Sabbath a delite, to consecrate it, as glorious to the Lord, and shalt honour him, not doing thine owne wayes, nor seeking thine owne will, nor speaking a vaine word,
14 その時なんぢヱホバを樂しむべし ヱホバなんぢを地のたかき處にのらしめ なんぢが先祖ヤコブの產業をもて汝をやしなひ給はん こはヱホバ口より語りたまへるなり
Then shalt thou delite in the Lord, and I wil cause thee to mount vpon the hie places of the earth, and feede thee with the heritage of Iaakob thy father: for the mouth of ye Lord hath spoken it.
