ゼカリヤ書 9
1 ヱホバの言詞の重負ハデラクの地に臨むダマスコはその止る所なりヱホバ世の人を眷みイスラエルの一切の支派を眷みたまへばなり
The burden of the word of the Lord in the land of Hadrach, and of Damascus the rest thereof: for the eye of man, and of all the tribes of Israel is the Lord’s.
2 之に界するハマテも然りツロ、シドンも亦はなはだ怜悧ければ同じく然るべし
Emath also in the borders thereof, and Tyre, and Sidon: for they have taken to themselves to be exceeding wise.
3 ツロは自己のために城郭を構へ銀を塵のごとくに積み金を街衢の土のごとくに積めり
And Tyre hath built herself a strong hold, and heaped together silver as earth, and gold as the mire of the streets.
4 視よ主これを攻取り海にて之が力を打ほろぼしたまふべし是は火にて焚うせん
Behold the Lord shall possess her, and shall strike her strength in the sea, and she shall be devoured with fire.
5 アシケロンこれを見て懼れガザもこれを見て太く慄ふエクロンもその望む所の者辱しめらるるに因て亦然りガザには王絶えアシケロンには住者なきに至らん
Ascalon shall see, and shall fear, and Gaza, and shall be very sorrowful: and Accaron, because her hope is confounded: and the king shall perish from Gaza, and Ascalon shall not be inhabited.
6 アシドドにはまた雑種の民すまん我ペリシテ人が誇る所の者を絶べし
And the divider shall sit in Azotus, and I will destroy the pride of the Philistines.
7 我これが口より血を取除き之が齒の間より憎むべき物を取除かん是も遺りて我儕の神に歸しユダの牧伯のごとくに成べしまたエクロンはヱブス人のごとくになるべし
And I will take away his blood out of his mouth, and his abominations from between his teeth: and even he shall be left to our God, and he shall be as a governor in Juda, and Accaron as a Jebusite.
8 我わが家のために陣を張て敵軍に當り之をして往來すること無らしめん虐遇者かさねて逼ること無るべし我いま我目をもて親ら見ればなり
And I will encompass my house with them that serve me in war, going and returning, and the oppressor shall no more pass through them: for now I have seen with my eyes.
9 シオンの女よ大に喜べヱルサレムの女よ呼はれ視よ汝の王汝に來る彼は正義して拯救を賜り柔和にして驢馬に乗る即ち牝驢馬の子なる駒に乗るなり
Rejoice greatly, O daughter of Sion, shout for joy, O daughter of Jerusalem: BEHOLD THY KING will come to thee, the just and saviour: he is poor, and riding upon an ass, and upon a colt the foal of an ass.
10 我エフライムより車を絶ちヱルサレムより馬を絶ん戰爭弓も絶るべし彼國々の民に平和を諭さん其政治は海より海に及び河より地の極におよぶべし
And I will destroy the chariot out of Ephraim, and the horse out of Jerusalem, and the bow for war shall be broken: and he shall speak peace to the Gentiles, and his power shall be from sea to sea, and from the rivers even to the end of the earth.
11 汝についてはまた汝の契約の血のために我かの水なき坑より汝の被俘人を放ち出さん
Thou also by the blood of thy testament hast sent forth thy prisoners out of the pit, wherein is no water.
12 望を懷く被俘人よ汝等城に歸れ我今日もなほ告て言ふ我かならず倍して汝等に賚ふべし
Return to the strong hold, ye prisoners of hope, I will render thee double at, I declare today.
13 我ユダを張て弓となしエフライムを矢となして之につがへんシオンよ我汝の人々を振起してギリシヤの人々を攻しめ汝をして大丈夫の劍のごとくならしむべし
Because I have bent Juda for me as a bow, I have filled Ephraim: and I will raise up thy sons, O Sion, above thy sons, O Greece, and I will make thee as the sword of the mighty.
14 ヱホバこれが上に顯れてその箭を電光のごとくに射いだしたまはん主ヱホバ喇叭を吹ならし南の暴風に乗て出來まさん
And the Lord God shall be seen over them, and his dart shall go forth as lightning: and the Lord God will sound the trumpet, and go in the whirlwind of the south.
15 萬軍のヱホバ彼らを護りたまはん彼等は食ふことを爲し投石器の石を踏つけん彼等は飮ことを爲し酒に醉るごとくに聲を擧ん其これに盈さるることは血を盛る鉢のごとく祭壇の隅のごとくなるべし
The Lord of hosts will protect them: and they shall devour, and subdue with the stones of the sling: and drinking they shall be inebriated as it were with wine, and they shall be filled as bowls, and as the horns of the altar.
16 彼らの神ヱホバ當日に彼らを救ひその民を羊のごとくに救ひたまはん彼等は冠冕の玉のごとくになりて其地に輝くべし
And the Lord their God will save them in that day, as the dock of his people: for holy stones shall be lifted up over his land.
17 その福祉は如何計ぞや其美麗は如何計ぞや穀物は童男を長ぜしめ新酒は童女を長ぜしむ
For what is the good thing of him, and what is his beautiful thing, but the corn of the elect, and wine springing forth virgins?
