ゼカリヤ書 2
1 茲に我目を擧て觀しに一箇の人量繩を手に執居ければ
I lifted up mine eyes again, and looked, and behold, a man with a measuring-line in his hand.
2 汝は何處へ往くやと問しにヱルサレムを量りてその廣と長の幾何なるを觀んとすと我に答ふ
Then said I, Whither goest thou? And he said to me, To measure Jerusalem, to see what is the breadth thereof, and what is the length thereof.
3 時に我に語ふ天の使出行たりしが又一箇の天の使出きたりて之に會ひ
And behold, the angel who talked with me went forth, and another angel went forth to meet him,
4 之に言けるは走ゆきてこの少き人に告て言へヱルサレムはその中に人と畜と饒なるによりて野原のごとくに廣く亘るべし
and said to him, Run, speak to that young man, saying: Jerusalem shall be inhabited without walls On account of the multitude of men and of cattle within her.
5 ヱホバ言たまふ我その四周にて火の垣となりその中にて榮光とならん
And I will be to her, saith Jehovah, A wall of fire round about, And glory will I be within her.
6 ヱホバいひたまふ來れ來れ北の地より逃きたれ我なんぢらを四方の天風のごとくに行わたらしむればなりヱホバこれを言ふ
Ho! ho! flee ye out of the land of the North, saith Jehovah; For toward the four winds of heaven have I scattered you abroad, saith Jehovah.
7 來れバビロンの女子とともに居るシオンよ遁れ來れ
Ho, Zion, escape, Thou that dwellest with the daughter of Babylon!
8 萬軍のヱホバかく言たまふヱホバ汝等を擄へゆきし國々へ榮光のために我儕を遣したまふ汝らを打つ者は彼の目の珠を打なればなり
For thus saith Jehovah of hosts: For glory hath he sent me to the nations which plundered you; (For he that toucheth you toucheth the apple of his eye.)
9 即ち我手をかれらの上に搖ん彼らは己に事へし者の俘虜となるべし汝らは萬軍のヱホバの我を遣したまへるなるを知ん
For, behold, I will shake my hand over them, And they shall be a spoil to those that served them; And ye shall know that Jehovah of hosts hath sent me.
10 ヱホバ言たまふシオンの女子よ喜び樂め我きたりて汝の中に住ばなり
Sing and rejoice, O daughter of Zion! For, behold, I will come, And I will dwell in the midst of thee, saith Jehovah;
11 その日には許多の民ヱホバに附て我民とならん我なんぢの中に住べし汝は萬軍のヱホバの我を遣したまへるなるを知ん
And many nations shall join themselves to Jehovah in that day, And shall be my people; And I will dwell in the midst of thee; And thou shalt know that Jehovah of hosts hath sent me to thee.
12 ヱホバ聖地の中にてユダを取て己の分となし再びヱルサレムを簡びたまふべし
And Jehovah will possess Judah as his portion in the holy land, And will again choose Jerusalem.
13 ヱホバ起てその聖住所よりいでたまへば凡そ血肉ある者ヱホバの前に粛然たれ
Be silent, all flesh, before Jehovah! For he riseth up from his holy habitation.
