エレミヤ書 25
1 ユダの王ヨシヤの子ヱホヤキムの四年バビロンの王ネブカデネザルの元年にユダのすべての民にかかはる言ヱレミヤにのぞめり
The word that came to Jeremiah concerning all the people of Judah, in the fourth year of Jehoiakim the son of Josiah, king of Judah (the same was the first year of Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon),
2 預言者ヱレミヤこの言をユダのすべての民とヱルサレムにすめるすべての者に告ていひけるは
which Jeremiah the prophet spoke to all the people of Judah, and to all the inhabitants of Jerusalem, saying,
3 ユダの王アモンの子ヨシヤの十三年より今日にいたるまで二十三年のあひだヱホバの言我にのぞめり我これを汝等に告げ頻にこれを語りしかども汝らきかざりし
From the thirteenth year of Josiah the son of Amon, king of Judah, even to this day, these twenty-three years, the word of Jehovah has come to me, and I have spoken to you, rising up early and speaking. But ye have not hearkened.
4 ヱホバその僕なる預言者を汝らに遣し頻に遣したまひけれども汝らはきかず又きかんとて耳を傾けざりき
And Jehovah has sent to you all his servants the prophets, rising up early and sending them, (but ye have not hearkened, nor inclined your ear to hear),
5 彼らいへり汝等おのおのいま其惡き途とその惡き行を棄よ然ばヱホバが汝らと汝らの先祖に與へたまひし地に永遠より永遠にいたるまで住ことをえん
saying, Return ye now each one from his evil way, and from the evil of your doings, and dwell in the land that Jehovah has given to you and to your fathers, from of old and even for evermore.
6 汝ら他の神に從ひこれに事へこれを拜み汝らの手にて作りし物をもて我を怒らする勿れ然ば我汝らを害はじ
And go not after other gods to serve them, and to worship them, and provoke me not to anger with the work of your hands. And I will do you no hurt.
7 然ど汝らは我にきかず汝等の手にて作りし物をもて我を怒らせて自ら害へりとヱホバいひたまふ
Yet ye have not hearkened to me, says Jehovah, that ye may provoke me to anger with the work of your hands to your own hurt.
8 この故に萬軍のヱホバかく云たまふ汝ら我言を聽ざれば
Therefore thus says Jehovah of hosts: Because ye have not heard my words,
9 視よ我北の諸の族と我僕なるバビロンの王ネブカデネザルを招きよせ此地とその民と其四圍の諸國を攻滅さしめて之を詫異物となし人の嗤笑となし永遠の荒地となさんとヱホバいひたまふ
behold, I will send and take all the families of the north, says Jehovah, and Nebuchadrezzar the king of Babylon, my servant, and will bring them against this land, and against the inhabitants of it, and against all these nations round about. And I will utterly destroy them, and make them an astonishment, and a hissing, and perpetual desolations.
10 またわれ欣喜の聲 歡樂の聲 新夫の聲 新婦の聲 磐磨の音および燈の光を彼らの中にたえしめん
Moreover I will take from them the voice of mirth and the voice of gladness, the voice of the bridegroom and the voice of the bride, the sound of the millstones, and the light of the lamp.
11 この地はみな空曠となり詫異物とならん又その諸國は七十年の間バビロンの王につかふべし
And this whole land shall be a desolation, and an astonishment. And these nations shall serve the king of Babylon seventy years.
12 ヱホバいひたまふ七十年のをはりし後我バビロンの王と其民とカルデヤの地をその罪のために罰し永遠の空曠となさん
And it shall come to pass, when seventy years are accomplished, that I will punish the king of Babylon, and that nation, says Jehovah, for their iniquity, and the land of the Chaldeans, and I will make it desolate forever.
13 我かの地につきて我かたりし諸の言をその上に臨しめん是ヱレミヤが萬國の事につきて預言したる者にて皆この書に錄さるるなり
And I will bring upon that land all my words which I have pronounced against it, even all that is written in this book, which Jeremiah has prophesied against all the nations.
14 多の國々と大なる王等は彼らをして己につかへしめん我かれらの行爲とその手の所作に循ひてこれに報いん
For many nations and great kings shall make bondmen of them, even of them, and I will recompense them according to their deeds, and according to the work of their hands.
15 イスラエルの神ヱホバかく我に云たまへり我手より此怒の杯をうけて我汝を遣はすところの國々の民に飮しめよ
For thus says Jehovah, the God of Israel, to me: Take this cup of the wine of wrath at my hand, and cause all the nations, to whom I send thee, to drink it.
16 彼らは飮てよろめき狂はんこは我かれらの中に劍をつかはすによりてなり
And they shall drink, and reel to and fro, and be mad, because of the sword that I will send among them.
17 是に於てわれヱホバの手より杯をうけヱホバのわれを遣したまふところの國々の民に飮しめたり
Then I took the cup at Jehovah's hand, and made all the nations to drink, to whom Jehovah had sent me:
18 即ちヱルサレムとユダの諸の邑とその王等およびその牧伯等に飮せてこれをほろぼし詫異物となし人の嗤笑となし詛るる者となせり今日のごとし
Jerusalem, and the cities of Judah, and the kings of it, and the rulers of it, to make them a desolation, an astonishment, a hissing, and a curse, as it is this day,
19 またエジプトの王パロと其臣僕その牧伯等その諸の民と
Pharaoh king of Egypt, and his servants, and his rulers, and all his people,
20 諸の雜種の民およびウズの諸の王等およびペリシテ人の地の諸の王等アシケロン、ガザ、エクロン、アシドドの遺餘の者
and all the mixed people, and all the kings of the land of the Uz, and all the kings of the Philistines, and Ashkelon, and Gaza, and Ekron, and the remnant of Ashdod,
21 エドム、モアブ、アンモンの子孫
Edom, and Moab, and the sons of Ammon,
22 ツロのすべての王等シドンのすべての王等海のかなたの島々の王等
and all the kings of Tyre, and all the kings of Sidon, and the kings of the isle which is beyond the sea,
23 デダン、テマ、ブズおよびすべて鬚をそる者
Dedan, and Tema, and Buz, and all who have the corners of their hair cut off,
24 アラビヤのすべての王等曠野の雜種の民の諸の王等
and all the kings of Arabia, and all the kings of the mixed people who dwell in the wilderness,
25 ジムリの諸の王等エラムの諸の王等メデアのすべての王等
and all the kings of Zimri, and all the kings of Elam, and all the kings of the Medes,
26 北のすべての王等その彼と此とにおいて或は遠者或は近きもの凡地の面にある世の國々の王等はこの杯を飮んセシヤク王はこれらの後に飮べし
and all the kings of the north, far and near, one with another, and all the kingdoms of the world, which are upon the face of the earth. And the king of Sheshach shall drink after them.
27 故に汝かれらに語ていへ萬軍のヱホバ、イスラエルの神かくいひたまふ我汝等の中に劍を遣すによりて汝らは飮みまた醉ひまた吐き又仆て再び起ざれと
And thou shall say to them, Thus says Jehovah of hosts, the God of Israel: Drink ye, and be drunken, and spew, and fall, and rise no more, because of the sword which I will send among you.
28 彼等もし汝の手より此杯を受て飮ずば汝彼らにいへ萬軍のヱホバかくいひたまふ汝ら必ず飮べし
And it shall be, if they refuse to take the cup at thy hand to drink, then thou shall say to them, Thus says Jehovah of hosts: Ye shall surely drink.
29 視よわれ我名をもて稱へらるるこの邑にすら災を降すなり汝らいかで罰を免るることをえんや汝らは罰を免れじ蓋われ劍をよびて地に住るすべての者を攻べければなりと萬軍のヱホバいひたまふ
For, lo, I begin to work evil at the city which is called by my name, and should ye be utterly unpunished? Ye shall not be unpunished. For I will call for a sword upon all the inhabitants of the earth, says Jehovah of hosts.
30 汝彼等にこの諸の言を預言していふべしヱホバ高き所より呼號り其聖宮より聲を出し己の住家に向てよばはり地に住る諸の者にむかひて葡萄を踐む者のごとく咷たまはん
Therefore prophesy thou against them all these words, and say to them, Jehovah will roar from on high, and utter his voice from his holy habitation. He will mightily roar against his fold. He will give a shout, as those who tread grapes, against all the inhabitants of the earth.
31 號咷地の極まで聞ゆ蓋ヱホバ列國と爭ひ萬民を審き惡人を劍に付せば也とヱホバ曰たまへり
A noise shall come even to the end of the earth, for Jehovah has a controversy with the nations. He will enter into judgment with all flesh. As for the wicked, he will give them to the sword, says Jehovah.
32 萬軍のヱホバかく曰たまふ視よ災いでて國より國にいたらん大なる暴風地の極よりおこるべし
Thus says Jehovah of hosts: Behold, evil shall go forth from nation to nation, and a great tempest shall be raised up from the outermost parts of the earth.
33 其日ヱホバの戮したまふ者は地の此極より地の彼の極に及ばん彼等は哀まれず殮められず葬られずして地の面に糞土とならん
And the slain of Jehovah shall be at that day from one end of the earth even to the other end of the earth. They shall not be lamented, nor gathered, nor buried; they shall be dung upon the face of the ground.
34 牧者よ哭き叫べ群の長等よ汝ら灰の中に轉ぶべし蓋汝らの屠らるる日滿れば也我汝らを散すべければ汝らは貴き器のごとく堕べし
Wail, ye shepherds, and cry. And wallow, ye principal men of the flock. For the days of your slaughter and of your dispersions have fully come, and ye shall fall like a goodly vessel.
35 牧者は避場なく群の長等は逃る處なし
And the shepherds shall have no way to flee, nor the principal men of the flock to escape.
36 牧者の呼號の聲と群の長等の哀哭きこゆ蓋ヱホバ其牧場を滅したまへば也
A voice of the cry of the shepherds, and the wailing of the principal men of the flock! For Jehovah lays waste their pasture.
37 ヱホバの烈き怒によりて平安なる牧場は滅さる
And the peaceable folds are brought to silence because of the fierce anger of Jehovah.
38 彼は獅子の如く其巢を出たり滅す者の怒と其烈き忿によりて彼らの地は荒されたり
He has left his covert as the lion. For their land has become an astonishment because of the fierceness of the oppressing sword, and because of his fierce anger.
