イザヤ書 64
1 願くはなんぢ天を裂てくだり給へ なんぢのみまへに山々ふるひ動かんことを
“[Yahweh], I wish that you would tear open the sky and come down, and cause the mountains to shake in your presence.
2 火の柴をもやし火の水を沸すがごとくして降りたまへ かくて名をなんぢの敵にあらはし もろもろの國をなんぢのみまへに戰慄かしめたまへ
[Be] like a fire that burns twigs and causes water to boil! [Come down] in order that your enemies will know who you are, and the [people of other] nations will tremble in your presence.
3 汝われらが逆料あたはざる懼るべき事をおこなひ給ひしときに降りたまへり 山々はその前にふるひうごけり
You have done awesome things which we were not expecting you to do; the mountains shook when you came down [at Horeb Mountain].
4 上古よりこのかた汝のほかに何なる神ありて俟望みたる者にかかる事をおこなひしや いまだ聽ず いまだ耳にいらず いまだ目にみしことなし
Since (long ago/the world began), no one [SYN] has [ever] seen or heard about a God like you; you help those who (depend on/trust in) you.
5 汝はよろこびて義をおこなひなんぢの途にありてなんぢを紀念するものを迎へたまふ 視よなんぢ怒りたまへり われらは罪ををかせり かかる狀なること旣にひさし 我儕いかで救はるるを得んや
You help those who joyfully do what is right, those who conduct their lives as you want them to. But [we did not do that]; we continued to sin, and so you became angry with us. We have been sinning for a long time, so only if we continually do what you want us to do will we be saved.
6 我儕はみな潔からざる物のごとくなり われらの義はことごとく汚れたる衣のごとし 我儕はみな木葉のごとく枯れ われらのよこしまは暴風のごとく我らを吹去れり
We have all become people who are not fit to worship you; all of the good things that we have done are only like [SIM] filthy/blood-stained rags. Because of our sins, we are like [SIM] leaves that dry up and are blown away by the wind.
7 なんぢの名をよぶ者なく みづから勵みて汝によりすがる者なし なんぢ面をおほひてわれらを顧みたまはず われらが邪曲をもてわれらを消失せしめたまへり
None [of our people] worships you, and no one is completely dedicated to [IDM] you. You have turned away from us. [It is as though] you have caused us to be forced to continue our sinful behavior.
8 されどヱホバよ汝はわれらの父なり われらは泥塊にしてなんぢは陶工なり 我らは皆なんぢの御手のわざなり
Yahweh, you are our father. We are [like] [MET] clay, and you created us, [like] [MET] a potter [creates pottery].
9 ヱホバよいたく怒りたまふなかれ 永くよこしまを記念したまふなかれ 願くは顧みたまへ 我儕はみななんぢの民なり
Yahweh, do not continue to be angry [with us]; do not keep thinking about [our] sins forever. Do not forget that we are all your people.
10 汝のきよき諸邑は野となりシオンは野となりヱルサレムは荒廢れたり
[All of] your towns [in Judah] have become like [MET] deserts; [even] Jerusalem has been destroyed.
11 我らの先祖が汝を讃たたへたる榮光ある我儕のきよき宮は火にやかれ 我儕のしたひたる處はことごとく荒はてたり
Your glorious temple on Zion Hill, where our ancestors worshiped you, has been destroyed by fire. And all our [other] beautiful things have been ruined.
12 ヱホバよこれらの事あれども汝なほみづから制へたまふや なんぢなほ默してわれらに深くくるしみを受しめたまふや
Yahweh, you see all those things, so we worry that you will refrain [from helping us], and that you will cause us to suffer much more.
