エレミヤ書 17
1 ユダの罪は鐵の筆金剛石の尖をもてしるされその心の碑と汝らの祭壇の角に鐫らるるなり
Cursed is the man who trusts in man, and will lean his arm of flesh upon him, while his heart departs from the Lord.
2 彼らはその子女をおもふが如くに靑木の下と高岡のうへなるその祭壇とアシラをおもふ
3 われ野に在る我山と汝の資產と汝のもろもろの財產および汝の四方の境の内なる汝の罪を犯せる崇邱を擄掠物とならしめん
4 わが汝にあたへし產業より汝手をはなさん又われ汝をして汝の識ざる地に於て汝の敵につかへしめんそは汝ら我をいからせて限なく燃る火を發したればなり
5 ヱホバかくいひたまふおほよそ人を恃み肉をその臂とし心にヱホバを離るる人は詛るべし
6 彼は荒野に棄られたる者のごとくならん彼は善事のきたるをみず荒野の燥きたる處鹽あるところ人の住ざる地に居らん
And he shall be as the wild tamarisk in the desert: he shall not see when good comes; but he shall dwell in barren [places], and in the wilderness, in a salt land which is not inhabited.
7 おほよそヱホバをたのみヱホバを其恃とする人は福なり
But blessed is the man who trusts in the Lord, and whose hope the Lord shall be.
8 彼は水の旁に植たる樹の如くならん其根を河にのべ炎熱きたるも恐るるところなしその葉は靑く亢旱の年にも憂へずして絕ず果を結ぶべし
And he shall be as a thriving tree by the waters, and he shall cast forth his root toward a moist place: he shall not fear when heat comes, and there shall be upon him shady branches: he shall not fear in a year of drought, and he shall not fail to bear fruit.
9 心は萬物よりも僞る者にして甚だ惡し誰かこれを知るをえんや
The heart is deep beyond all things, and it is the man, and who can know him?
10 われヱホバは心腹を察り腎腸を試みおのおのに其途に順ひその行爲の果によりて報ゆべし
I the Lord try the hearts, and prove the reins, to give to every one according to his ways, and according to the fruits of his devices.
11 鷓鴣のおのれの生ざる卵をいだくが如く不義をもて財を獲る者あり其人は命の半にてこれに離れその終に愚なる者とならん
The partridge utters her voice, she gathers [eggs] which she did not lay; [so is a man] gaining his wealth unjustly; in the midst of his days [his riches] shall leave him, and at his latter end he will be a fool.
12 榮の位よ原始より高き者わが聖所たる者
An exalted throne of glory is our sanctuary.
13 イスラエルの望なるヱホバよ凡て汝を離るる者は辱められん我を棄る者は土に錄されん此はいける水の源なるヱホバを離るるによる
O Lord, the hope of Israel, let all that have left thee be ashamed, let them that have revolted be written on the earth, because they have forsaken the fountain of life, the Lord.
14 ヱホバよ我を醫し給へ然らばわれ愈んわれを救ひたまへさらば我救はれん汝はわが頌るものなり
Heal me, O Lord, and I shall be healed; save me, and I shall be saved; for thou art my boast.
15 彼ら我にいふヱホバの言は何にあるやいま之をのぞましめよと
Behold, they say to me, Where is the word of the Lord? let it come.
16 われ牧者の職を退かずして汝にしたがひ又禍の日を願はざりき汝これを知りたまふ我唇よりいづる者は汝の面の前にあり
But I have not been weary of following thee, nor have I desired the day of man; thou knowest; the [words] that proceed out of my lips are before thy face.
17 汝我を懼れしむる者となり給ふ勿れ禍の時に汝は我避場なり
Be not to me a stranger, [but] spare me in the evil day.
18 我を攻る者を辱しめ給へ我を辱しむるなかれ彼らを怖れしめよ我を怖れしめ給ふなかれ禍の日を彼らに來らしめ滅亡を倍して之を滅し給へ
Let them that persecute me be ashamed, but let me not be ashamed: let them be alarmed, but let me not be alarmed: bring upon them the evil day, crush them with double destruction.
19 ヱホバ我にかくいひ給へり汝ゆきてユダの王等の出入する民の門及びヱルサレムの諸の門に立て
Thus saith the Lord; Go and stand in the gates of the children of thy people, by which the kings of Juda enter, and by which they go out, and in all the gates of Jerusalem:
20 彼らにいへ此門より入る所のユダの王等とユダのすべての民とヱルサレムに住るすべての者よ汝らヱホバの言をきけ
and thou shalt say to them, Hear the word of the Lord, ye kings of Juda, and all Judea, and all Jerusalem, [all] who go in at these gates:
21 ヱホバかくいひたまふ汝ら自ら愼め安息日に荷をたづさへてヱルサレムの門にいる勿れ
thus saith the Lord; Take heed to your souls, and take up no burdens on the sabbath-day, and go not forth [through] the gates of Jerusalem;
22 また安息日に汝らの家より荷を出す勿れ諸の工作をなす勿れ我汝らの先祖に命ぜしごとく安息日を聖くせよ
and carry forth no burdens out of your houses on the sabbath-day, and ye shall do no work: sanctify the sabbath-day, as I commanded your fathers.
23 されど彼らは遵はず耳を傾けずまたその項を強くして聽ず訓をうけざるなり
But they hearkened not, and inclined not their ear, but stiffened their neck more than their fathers [did], so as not to hear me, and not to receive correction.
24 ヱホバいひ給ふ汝らもし謹愼て我にきき安息日に荷をたづさへてこの邑の門にいらず安息日を聖くなして諸の工作をなさずば
And it shall come to pass, if ye will hearken to me, saith the Lord, to carry in no burdens through the gates of this city on the sabbath-day, and to sanctify the sabbath-day, so as to do no work [upon it],
25 ダビデの位に坐する王等牧伯たちユダの民ヱルサレムに住る者車と馬に乗てこの邑の門よりいることをえんまた此邑には限なく人すまはん
that there shall enter through the gates of this city kings and princes sitting on the throne of David, and riding on their chariots and horses, they, and their princes, the men of Juda, and the dwellers in Jerusalem: and this city shall be inhabited for ever.
26 また人々ユダの邑とヱルサレムの四周およびベニヤミンの地と平地と山と南の方よりきたり燔祭 犠牲 素祭 馨香 謝祭を携へてヱホバの室にいらん
And [men] shall come out of the cities of Juda, and from round about Jerusalem, and out of the land of Benjamin, and out of the plain country, and from the hill country, and from the south [country], bringing whole-burnt-offerings, and sacrifices, and incense, and manna, and frankincense, bringing praise to the house of the Lord.
27 されど汝らもし我に聽ずして安息日を聖くせず安息日に荷をたづさへてヱルサレムの門にいらばわれ火をその門の内に燃してヱルサレムの殿舍を燬んその火は滅ざるべし
But it shall come to pass, if ye will not hearken to me to sanctify the sabbath-day, to bear no burdens, nor go in [with them by] the gates of Jerusalem on the sabbath-day; then will I kindle a fire in the gates thereof, and it shall devour the streets of Jerusalem, and shall not be quenched.
