詩篇 19
1 もろもろの天は神のえいくわうをあらはし 穹蒼はその手のわざをしめす
“To the chief musician, a psalm of David.” The heavens relate the glory of God; and the expanse telleth of the works of his hands.
2 この日ことばをかの日につたへこのよ知識をかの夜におくる
Day unto day uttereth speech, and night unto night showeth knowledge.
3 語らずいはずその聲きこえざるに
There is no speech, there are no words, their voice is not heard.
4 そのひびきは全地にあまねく そのことばは地のはてにまでおよぶ 神はかしこに帷幄を日のためにまうけたまへり
[But] their melody extendeth through all the earth, and to the end of the world their words. For the sun hath he set a tabernacle among them;
5 日は新婿がいはひの殿をいづるごとく勇士がきそひはしるをよろこぶに似たり
And he goeth out as a bridegroom from his chamber, he is glad like a strong man to run his course;
6 そのいでたつや天の涯よりし その運りゆくや天のはてにいたる 物としてその和喣をかうぶらざるはなし
From the end of the heavens is his going forth, and his circuit is unto their ends: and there is nothing hidden from his heat.
7 ヱホバの法はまたくして霊魂をいきかへらしめ ヱホバの證詞はかたくして愚なるものを智からしむ
The law of the Lord is perfect, quieting the soul: the testimony of the Lord is sure, making wise the simple.
8 ヱホバの訓諭はなほくして心をよろこばしめ ヱホバの誡命はきよくして眼をあきらかならしむ
The precepts of the Lord are upright, rejoicing the heart; the commandment of the Lord is clear, enlightening the eyes.
9 ヱホバを惶みおそるる道はきよくして世々にたゆることなく ヱホバのさばきは眞實にしてことごとく正し
The fear of the Lord is pure, enduring for ever: the ordinances of the Lord are the truth, they are just altogether.
10 これを黄金にくらぶるもおほくの純精金にくらぶるも 彌増りてしたふべく これを蜜にくらぶるも蜂のすの滴瀝にくらぶるもいやまさりて甘し
They are those which are to be desired more than gold, and much fine gold; and they are sweeter than honey and the dropping of honeycomb.
11 なんぢの僕はこれらによりて儆戒をうく これらをまもらば大なる報賞あらん
Moreover thy servant is admonished by them: in keeping them there is great reward.
12 たれかおのれの過失をしりえんや ねがはくは我をかくれたる愆より解放ちたまへ
Who can guard against errors? from secret [faults] do thou cleanse me.
13 願くはなんぢの僕をひきとめて故意なる罪ををかさしめず それをわが主たらしめ給ふなかれ さればわれ玷なきものとなりて大なる愆をまぬかるるをえん
Also from presumptuous [sins] withhold thy servant; let them not have dominion over me: then shall I be blameless, and I shall be clear from any great transgression.
14 ヱホバわが磐わが贖主よ わがくちの言わがこころの思念なんぢのまへに悦ばるることを得しめたまへ
May the words of my mouth, and the meditation of my heart, be acceptable before thee, O Lord, my Rock, and my Redeemer.
