イザヤ書 65
1 我はわれを求めざりしものに問もとめられ 我をたづねざりしものに見出され わが名をよばざりし國にわれ曰らく われは此にあり我はここに在と
"I have shown myself to those who did not ask for me. I was found by those who did not seek me. I said, 'Here I am. Here I am.' to a nation that did not call on my name.
2 善らぬ途をあゆみおのが思念にしたがふ悖れる民をひねもす手をのべて招けり
All day long I have stretched out my hands to a disobedient and obstinate people, who walk in a way that is not good, following their own thoughts;
3 この民はまのあたり恒にわが怒をひき 園のうちにて犠牲をささげ 瓦の壇にて香をたき
a people who provoke me to my face continually as they sacrifice in gardens and burn incense on bricks;
4 墓のあひだにすわり隱密なる處にやどり 猪の肉をくらひ憎むべきものの羹をその器皿にもりて
who sit among the graves, and lodge in the secret places; who eat pig's flesh, and the broth of abominable things is in their vessels;
5 人にいふなんぢ其處にたちて我にちかづくなかれ そは我なんぢよりも聖しと 彼らはわが鼻のけぶり終日もゆる火なり
who say, 'Keep your distance, do not come near to me, for I am holier than you.' These are a smoke in my nose, a fire that burns all the day.
6 視よこの事わが前にしるされたり われ默さずして報いかへすべし 必ずかれらの懷中に報いかへすべし
"Look, it is written before me: I will not keep silence, but will recompense, yes, I will recompense into their bosom,
7 ヱホバいひ給く なんぢらの邪曲となんぢらが列祖のよこしまとはともに報いかへすべし かれらは山上にて香をたき岡のうへにて我を汚ししがゆゑに 我まづその作をはかりてその懷中にかへすべし
your own iniquities, and the iniquities of your fathers together," says YHWH, "who have burned incense on the mountains, and blasphemed me on the hills; therefore I will first measure their work into their bosom."
8 ヱホバ如此いひたまふ 人ぶだうのなかに汁あるを見ばいはん これを壞るなかれ福祉その中にあればなりと 我わが僕等のために如此おこなひてことごとくは壞らじ
Thus says YHWH, "As the new wine is found in the cluster, and one says, 'Do not destroy it, for a blessing is in it:' so will I do for my servants' sake, that I may not destroy them all.
9 ヤコブより一裔をいだしユダよりわれ山々をうけつぐべき者をいださん わが撰みたる者はこれをうけつぎ我がしもべらは彼處にすむべし
And I will bring forth offspring from Jacob, and from Judah they shall inherit my mountains; and my chosen shall inherit it, and my servants shall dwell there.
10 シヤロンは羊のむれの牧場となりアコルの谷はうしの群のふす所となりて我をたづねもとめたるわが民の有とならん
Sharon shall be a fold of flocks, and the Valley of Achor a place for herds to lie down in, for my people who have sought me.
11 然どなんぢらヱホバを棄わがきよき山をわすれ 机をガド(禍福の神)にそなへ雜合せたる酒をもりてメニ(運命の神)にささぐる者よ
"But you who forsake YHWH, who forget my holy mountain, who prepare a table for Fortune, and who fill up mixed wine to Destiny;
12 われ汝らを劍にわたすべく定めたり なんぢらは皆かがみて屠らるべし 汝等はわが呼しときこたへず わが語りしとききかず わが目にあしき事をおこなひ わが好まざりし事をえらみたればなり
I will destine you to the sword, and you shall all bow down to the slaughter; because when I called, you did not answer; when I spoke, you did not listen; but you did that which was evil in my eyes, and chose that in which I did not delight."
13 このゆゑに主ヱホバかく言給ふ わが僕等はくらへども汝等はうゑ わが僕等はのめども汝等はかわき 我しもべらは喜べどもなんぢらははぢ
Therefore thus says YHWH, "Look, my servants shall eat, but you shall be hungry; look, my servants shall drink, but you shall be thirsty; look, my servants shall rejoice, but you shall be disappointed;
14 わが僕等はこころ樂きによりて歌うたへども汝等はこころ哀きによりて叫び また靈魂うれふるによりて泣嗁ぶべし
look, my servants shall sing in gladness of heart, but you shall cry for sorrow of heart, and shall wail for anguish of spirit.
15 なんぢらが遺名はわが撰みたるものの呪詛の料とならん 主ヱホバなんぢらを殺したまはん 然どおのれの僕等をほかの名をもて呼たまふべし
You shall leave your name for a curse to my chosen; and YHWH will kill you; but he will call his servants by another name:
16 斯るがゆゑに地にありて己のために福祉をねがふものは眞實の神にむかひて福祉をもとめ 地にありて誓ふものは眞實の神をさして誓ふべし さきの困難は忘れられてわが目よりかくれ失たるに因る
so that he who blesses himself in the earth shall bless himself in the God of truth; and he who swears in the earth shall swear by the God of truth; because the former troubles are forgotten, and because they are hidden from my eyes.
17 視よわれ新しき天とあたらしき地とを創造す 人さきのものを記念することなく之をその心におもひ出ることなし
"For, look, I create new heavens and a new earth; and the former things shall not be remembered, nor come into mind.
18 然どなんぢらわが創造する者によりて永遠にたのしみよろこべ 視よわれはヱルサレムを造りてよろこびとしその民を快樂とす
But be you glad and rejoice forever in that which I create; for, look, I create Jerusalem a rejoicing, and her people a joy.
19 われヱルサレムを喜びわが民をたのしまん 而して泣聲とさけぶ聲とはふたたびその中にきこえざるべし
I will rejoice in Jerusalem, and joy in my people; and there shall be heard in her no more the voice of weeping and the voice of crying.
20 日數わづかにして死る嬰兒といのちの日をみたさざる老人とはその中にまたあることなかるべし 百歳にて死るものも尚わかしとせられ 百歳にて死るものを詛れたる罪人とすべし
"There shall be no more there an infant of days, nor an old man who has not filled his days; for the child shall die one hundred years old, and the sinner being one hundred years old shall be accursed.
21 かれら家をたてて之にすみ葡萄園をつくりてその果をくらふべし
They shall build houses, and inhabit them; and they shall plant vineyards, and eat their fruit.
22 かれらが建るところにほかの人すまず かれらが造るところの果はほかの人くらはず そはわが民のいのちは樹の命の如く 我がえらみたる者はその手の工ふるびうするとも存ふべければなり
They shall not build, and another inhabit; they shall not plant, and another eat: for as the days of a tree shall be the days of my people, and my chosen shall long enjoy the work of their hands.
23 かれらの勤勞はむなしからず その生ところの者はわざはひにかからず 彼等はヱホバの福祉をたまひしものの裔にしてその子輩もあひ共にをる可ればなり
They shall not labor in vain, nor bring forth for calamity; for they are the descendants of the blessed of YHWH, and their offspring with them.
24 かれらが呼ざるさきにわれこたへ 彼らが語りをへざるに我きかん
It shall happen that, before they call, I will answer; and while they are yet speaking, I will hear.
25 豺狼とこひつじと食物をともにし 獅は牛のごとく藁をくらひ 蛇はちりを糧とすべし 斯てわが聖山のいづこにても害ふことなく傷ることなからん これヱホバの聖言なり
The wolf and the lamb shall feed together, and the lion shall eat straw like the ox; and dust shall be the serpent's food. They shall not hurt nor destroy in all my holy mountain," says YHWH.
