エゼキエル書 17
1 時に主の言葉がわたしに臨んだ、
And it came [the] word of Yahweh to me saying.
2 「人の子よ、イスラエルの家になぞをかけ、たとえを語って、
O son of humankind ask a riddle a riddle and speak a parable a parable concerning [the] house of Israel.
3 言え。主なる神がこう言われる、さまざまの色の羽毛を多く持ち、大きな翼と、長い羽根とを持つ大わしがレバノンに来て、香柏のこずえにとまり、
And you will say thus he says - [the] Lord Yahweh the eagle great great of wings long of pinion full plumage which [belonged] to it variegated plumage it came to Lebanon and it took [the] treetop of the cedar.
4 その若枝の頂を摘み切り、これを商業の地に運び、商人の町に置いた。
[the] top Shoots its it plucked off and it brought it to a land of merchant[s] in a city of traders it placed it.
5 またその地の種をとって、これを肥えた土に植えた。すなわち水の多い所にもって行って、柳を植えるようにこれを植えた。
And it took one of [the] seed of the land and it put it in a field of seed take [it] at waters many a willow it placed it.
6 これが成長して、たけ低く、はびこるぶどうの木となり、枝はわしに向かい、根はわしの下にあり、こうしてついにぶどうの木となり、枝を伸ばし、葉を出した。
And it sprouted and it became a vine spreading low of stature to turn branches its to it and roots its under it they were and it became a vine and it produced shoots and it sent out boughs.
7 ここにまた大きな翼と、羽毛の多いほかの一羽の大わしがあった。見よ、このぶどうの木は、潤いを得るために、その根をわしに向かってまげ、その枝をわしに向かって伸ばした。
And it was an eagle one great great of wings and great of plumage and there! the vine this it bent roots its on it and branches its it sent out to it to water it from [the] beds of planting its.
8 これが枝を出し、実を結び、みごとなぶどうの木となるために、わしはこれを植えた苗床から水の多い良い地に移し植えた。
To a field good to waters many it [was] planted to produce branch[es] and to bear fruit to become a vine of splendor.
9 あなたは、主なる神がこう言われると言え、これは栄えるであろうか。わしはその根を抜き、その枝を切り、その若葉を皆枯らさないであろうか。これをその根からあげるには、強い腕や多くの民を必要としない。
Say thus he says [the] Lord Yahweh will it prosper? ¿ not roots its will it pull up and fruit its - will it strip off? and it will wither all [the] fresh [things] of growth its it will wither and not by an arm great and by a people numerous to lift up it from roots its.
10 見よ、それが移し植えられたら、また栄えるであろうか。東風がこれを打つ時、それは枯れてしまわないであろうか。その育った苗床で枯れないであろうか」。
And there! [it is] planted ¿ will it prosper ¿ not when touches it [the] wind of the east will it wither completely on [the] beds of growth its it will wither.
11 主の言葉がまたわたしに臨んだ、
And it came [the] word of Yahweh to me saying.
12 「反逆の家に言え。これらがなんであるかをあなたがたは知らないのか。彼らに言え、見よ、バビロンの王がエルサレムにきて、その王とつかさとを捕え、これをバビロンに引いて行った。
Say please to [the] house of rebellion ¿ not do you know what? [are] these [things] say there! he went [the] king of Babylon Jerusalem and he took king its and princes its and he brought them to himself Babylon towards.
13 また王の子孫のひとりを捕えて、これと契約を結び、誓いを立てさせ、また国のおもだった人々を捕えて行った。
And he took one of [the] offspring of royalty and he made with him a covenant and he made go him in an oath and [the] leaders of the land he took.
14 これはこの国を卑しくして、みずから立つことができないようにし、その契約を守ることによって立たせるためである。
To be a kingdom lowly to not to exalt itself to keep covenant his to continue it.
15 しかし彼はバビロンの王にそむき、使者をエジプトに送って、馬と多くの兵とをそこから獲ようとした。彼は成功するだろうか。このようなことをなす者は、のがれることができようか。
And he rebelled against him by sending messengers his Egypt to give to him horses and a people numerous ¿ will he prosper ¿ will he escape the [one who] does these [things] and will he break? a covenant and will he escape?
16 契約を破ってなおのがれることができようか。主なる神は言われる、わたしは生きている、必ず彼は自分を王となした王の住む所、彼が立てた誓いを軽んじ、その契約を破った相手の王のいるバビロンで彼は死ぬ。
[by] [the] life Of me [the] utterance of [the] Lord Yahweh if not in [the] place of the king who made king him whom he despised oath his and whom he broke covenant his with him in [the] midst of Babylon he will die.
17 多くの命を断つために塁を築き、雲梯を建てるとき、パロは決して大いなる軍勢と、多くの人とをもって、彼を助けて戦いをしない。
And not with an army large and with a company great he will do with him Pharaoh in battle when pour out a mound and when build a siege-wall to cut off lives many.
18 彼は誓いを軽んじ、契約を破り、その手を与えて誓いながら、なおこれらの事をしたゆえ、のがれることはできない。
And he despised [the] oath by breaking [the] covenant and there! he had given hand his and all these [things] he did not he will escape.
19 それゆえ、主なる神はこう言われる、わたしは生きている、彼がわたしの誓いを軽んじ、わたしの契約を破ったことを、必ず彼のこうべに報いる。
Therefore thus he says [the] Lord Yahweh [by] [the] life of me if not oath my which he despised and covenant my which he broke and I will requite it on own head his.
20 わたしはわが網を彼の上に打ちかけ、彼をわがわなに捕えて、バビロンに引いて行き、彼がわたしにむかって犯した反逆のために、その所で彼をさばく。
And I will spread over him net my and he will be caught in hunting net my and I will bring him Babylon towards and I will enter into judgment with him there unfaithfulness his which he has acted unfaithfully against me.
21 彼のすべての軍隊のえり抜きの兵士は皆つるぎに倒れ、生き残った者は八方に散らされる。そしてあなたがたは主なるわたしが、これを語ったことを知るようになる」。
And all (fugitives his *Q(K)*) among all troops his by the sword they will fall and the [ones who] survive to every wind they will be scattered and you will know that I Yahweh I have spoken.
22 主なる神はこう言われる、「わたしはまた香柏の高いこずえから小枝をとって、これを植え、その若芽の頂から柔かい芽を摘みとり、これを高いすぐれた山に植える。
Thus he says [the] Lord Yahweh and I will take I from [the] treetop of the cedar high and I will place [it] from [the] top of young shoots its a tender [shoot] I will pluck off and I will plant [it] I on a mountain high and lofty.
23 わたしはイスラエルの高い山にこれを植える。これは枝を出し、実を結び、みごとな香柏となり、その下にもろもろの種類の獣が住み、その枝の陰に各種の鳥が巣をつくる。
On [the] mountain of [the] height of Israel I will plant it and it will bear branch[es] and it will produce fruit and it will become a cedar majestic and they will dwell under it every bird every wing in [the] shadow of branches its they will dwell.
24 そして野のすべての木は、主なるわたしが高い木を低くし、低い木を高くし、緑の木を枯らし、枯れ木を緑にすることを知るようになる。主であるわたしはこれを語り、これをするのである」。
And they will know all [the] trees of the field that I Yahweh I bring low - a tree tall I raise up a tree low I make dry a tree moist and I make sprout a tree dry I Yahweh I have spoken and I will act.
