ナホム書 1
1 ニネベに關る重き預言 エルコシ人ナホムの異象の書
The burden of Nineueh. The booke of the vision of Nahum the Elkeshite.
2 ヱホバは妬みかつ仇を報ゆる神 ヱホバは仇を報ゆる者また忿怒の主 ヱホバは己に逆らふ者に仇を報い己に敵する者にむかひて憤恨を含む者なり
God is ielous, and the Lord reuengeth: the Lord reuengeth: euen the Lord of anger, the Lord will take vengeance on his aduersaries, and he reserueth wrath for his enemies.
3 ヱホバは怒ることの遲く能力の大なる者 また罰すべき者をば必ず赦すことを爲ざる者 ヱホバの道は旋風に在り 大風に在り 雲はその足の塵なり
The Lord is slow to anger, but he is great in power, and will not surely cleare the wicked: the Lord hath his way in ye whirlewind, and in the storme, and the cloudes are the dust of his feete.
4 彼海を指斥て之を乾かし河々をしてことごとく涸しむ バシヤンおよびカルメルの草木は枯れレバノンの花は凋む
He rebuketh the sea, and dryeth it, and he dryeth vp all the riuers: Bashan is wasted and Carmel, and the floure of Lebanon is wasted.
5 彼の前には山々ゆるぎ嶺々溶く 彼の前には地墳上り世界およびその中に住む者皆ふきあげらる
The mountaines tremble for him, and the hilles melt, and the earth is burnt at his sight, yea, the worlde, and all that dwell therein.
6 誰かその憤恨に當ることを得ん 誰かその燃る忿怒に堪ることを得ん 其震怒のそそぐこと火のごとし 巖も之がために裂く
Who can stande before his wrath? or who can abide in the fiercenesse of his wrath? his wrath is powred out like fire, and the rockes are broken by him.
7 ヱホバは善なる者にして患難の時の要害なり 彼は己に倚賴む者を善知たまふ
The Lord is good and as a strong hold in the day of trouble, and he knoweth them that trust in him.
8 彼みなぎる洪水をもてその處を全く滅し己に敵する者を幽暗處に逐やりたまはん
But passing ouer as with a flood, he will vtterly destroy the place thereof, and darknesse shall pursue his enemies.
9 汝らヱホバに對ひて何を謀るや 彼全く滅したまふべし 患難かさねて起らじ
What doe ye imagine against the Lord? he wil make an vtter destruction: affliction shall not rise vp the seconde time.
10 彼等むすびからまれる荊棘のごとくなるとも酒に浸りをるとも乾ける藁のごとくに焚つくさるべし
For he shall come as vnto thornes folden one in another, and as vnto drunkards in their drunkennesse: they shall be deuoured as stubble fully dryed.
11 ヱホバに對ひて惡事を謀る者一人汝の中より出て邪曲なる事を勸む
There commeth one out of thee that imagineth euill against the Lord, euen a wicked counsellour.
12 ヱホバかく言たまふ 彼等全くしてその數夥多しかるとも必ず芟たふされて皆絶ん 我前にはなんぢを苦めたれども重て汝を苦めじ
Thus saith the Lord, Though they be quiet, and also many, yet thus shall they be cut off when he shall passe by: though I haue afflicted thee, I will afflict thee no more.
13 いま我かれが汝に負せし軛を碎き汝の縛を切はなすべし
For nowe I will breake his yoke from thee, and will burst thy bonds in sunder.
14 ヱホバ汝の事につきて命令を下す 汝の名を負ふ者再び播るること有じ 汝の神々の室より我雕像および鑄像を除き絶べし 我汝の墓を備へん 汝輕ければなり
And the Lord hath giuen a commandement concerning thee, that no more of thy name be sowen: out of the house of thy gods will I cut off the grauen, and the molten image: I will make it thy graue for thee, for thou art vile.
15 嘉音信を傳ふる者の脚山の上に見ゆ 彼平安を宣ぶ ユダよ汝の節筵を行ひ汝の誓願を果せ 邪曲なる者重て汝の中を通らざるべし 彼は全く絶る
Beholde vpon the mountaines the feete of him that declareth, and publisheth peace: O Iudah, keepe thy solemne feastes, perfourme thy vowes: for the wicked shall no more passe thorowe thee: he is vtterly cut off.
