イザヤ書 62

1 われシオンの義あさ日の光輝のごとくにいで ヱルサレムの救もゆる松火のごとくになるまではシオンのために默さずヱルサレムのために休まざるべし

For Sion’s sake I will not hold my peace, and for the sake of Jerusalem, I will not rest till her just one come forth as brightness, and her saviour be lighted as a lamp.

2 もろもろの國はなんぢの義を見 もろもろの王はみななんぢの榮をみん 斯てなんぢはヱホバの口にて定め給ふ新しき名をもて稱へらるべし

And the Gentiles shall see thy just one, and all kings thy glorious one: and thou shalt be called by a new name, which the mouth of the Lord shall name.

3 また汝はうるはしき冠のごとくヱホバの手にあり 王の冕のごとくなんぢの神のたなごころにあらん

And thou shalt be a crown of glory in the hand of the Lord, and a royal diadem in the hand of thy God.

4 人ふたたび汝をすてられたる者といはず 再びなんぢの地をあれたる者といはじ 却てなんぢをヘフジバ(わが悦ぶところ)ととなへ なんぢの地をベウラ(配偶)ととなふべし そはヱホバなんぢをよろこびたまふ なんぢの地は配偶をえん

Thou shalt no more be called Forsaken: and thy land shall no more be called Desolate: but thou shalt be called My pleasure in her, and thy land inhabited. Because the Lord hath been well pleased with thee: and thy land shall be inhabited.

5 わかきものの處女をめとる如くなんぢの子輩はなんぢを娶らん 新郎の新婦をよろこぶごとくなんぢの神なんぢを喜びたまふべし

For the young man shall dwell with the virgin, and thy children shall dwell in thee. And the bridegroom shall rejoice over the bride, and thy God shall rejoice over thee.

6 ヱルサレムよ我なんぢの石垣のうへに斥候をおきて終日終夜たえず默すことなからしむ なんぢらヱホバに記念したまはんことを求むるものよ 自らやすむなかれ

Upon thy wails, O Jerusalem, I have appointed watchmen all the day, and all the night, they shall never hold their peace. You that are mindful of the Lord, hold not your peace,

7 ヱホバ、ヱルサレムをたてて全地に譽をえしめ給ふまでは息め奉るなかれ

And give him no silence till he establish, and till he make Jerusalem a praise in the earth.

8 ヱホバその右手をさしその大能の臂をさし誓ひて宣給く われ再びなんぢの五穀をなんぢの敵にあたへて食はせず 異邦人はなんぢが勞したる酒をのまざるべし

The Lord hath sworn by his right hand, and by the arm of his strength: Surely I will no more give thy corn to be meat for thy enemies: and the sons of the strangers shall not drink thy wine, for which thou hast laboured.

9 収穫せしものは之をくらひてヱホバを讃たたへ 葡萄をあつめし者はわが聖所の庭にて之をのむべし

For they that gather it, shall eat it, and shall praise the Lord: and they that bring it together, shall drink it in my holy courts.

10 門よりすすみゆけ進みゆけ 民の途をそなへ土をもり土をもりて大路をまうけよ 石をとりのぞけ もろもろの民に旗をあげて示せ

Go through, go through the gates, prepare the way for the people, make the road plain, pick out the stones, and lift up the standard to the people.

11 ヱホバ地の極にまで告てのたまはく 汝等シオンの女にいへ 視よなんぢらの救きたる 視よ主の手にその恩賜あり はたらきの價はその前にあり

Behold the Lord hath made it to be heard in the ends of the earth, tell the daughter of Sion: Behold thy Saviour cometh: behold his reward is with him, and his work before him.

12 而してかれらはきよき民またヱホバにあがなはれたる者ととなへられん なんぢは人にもとめ尋らるるもの棄られざる邑ととなへらるべし

And they shall call them, The holy people, the redeemed of the Lord. But thou shalt be called: A city sought after, and not forsaken.
