エゼキエル書 43
1 その後、彼はわたしを門に導いた。門は東に面していた。
Moreover he brought me to the gate looking eastward, and led me forth.
2 その時、見よ、イスラエルの神の栄光が、東の方から来たが、その来る響きは、大水の響きのようで、地はその栄光で輝いた。
And, behold, the glory of the God of Israel came by the eastern way; and [there was] a voice of an army, as the sound of many redoubling [their shouts], and the earth shone like light from the glory round about.
3 わたしが見た幻の様は、彼がこの町を滅ぼしに来た時に、わたしが見た幻と同様で、これはまたわたしがケバル川のほとりで見た幻のようであった。それでわたしは顔を伏せた。
And the vision which I saw was like the vision which I saw when I went in to anoint the city: and the vision of the chariot which I saw was like the vision which I saw at the river Chobar; and I fell upon my face.
4 主の栄光が、東の方に面した門の道から宮にはいった時、
And the glory of the Lord came into the house, by the way of the gate looking eastward.
5 霊がわたしを引き上げて、内庭に導き入れると、見よ、主の栄光が宮に満ちた。
And the Spirit took me up, and brought me into the inner court; and, behold, the house of the Lord was full of glory.
6 その人がわたしのかたわらに立った時、わたしはひとりの人が、宮の中からわたしに語るのを聞いた。
And I stood, and behold [there was] a voice out of the house of one speaking to me, and a man stood near me,
7 彼はわたしに言った、「人の子よ、これはわたしの位のある所、わたしの足の裏の踏む所、わたしが永久にイスラエルの人々の中に住む所である。またイスラエルの家は、民もその王たちも、再び姦淫と、王たちの死体とをもって、わが聖なる名を汚さない。
and he said to me, Son of man, thou hast seen the place of my throne, and the place of the soles of my feet, in which my name shall dwell in the midst of the house of Israel for ever; and the house of Israel shall no more profane my holy name, they and their princes, by their fornication, or by the murders of [their] princes in the midst of them;
8 彼らはその敷居を、わが敷居のかたわらに設け、その門柱を、わが門柱のかたわらに設けたので、わたしと彼らとの間には、わずかに壁があるのみである。そして彼らは、その犯した憎むべき事をもって、わが聖なる名を汚したので、わたしは怒りをもって、これを滅ぼした。
when they set my door-way by their door-way, and my thresholds near to their thresholds: and they made my wall as it were joining myself and them, and they profaned my holy name with their iniquities which they wrought: and I destroyed them in my wrath and with slaughter.
9 今彼らに命じて姦淫と、その王たちの死体を、わたしから遠く取り除かせよ。そうしたら、わたしは永久に彼らの中に住む。
And now let them put away from me their fornication, and the murders of their princes, and I will dwell in the midst of them forever.
10 人の子よ、宮と、その外形と、設計とをイスラエルの家に示せ。彼らはその悪を恥じるであろう。
And thou, son of man, shew the house to the house of Israel, that they may cease from their sins; and [shew] its aspect and the arrangement of it.
11 彼らがその犯したすべての事を恥じたら、彼らに、この宮の建て方、設備、出口、入口、すべての形式、すべてのおきて、すべての規定を示せ。これを彼らの目の前に書き、彼らにそのすべての規定と、おきてとを守り行わせよ。
And they shall bear their punishment for all the things that they have done: and thou shalt describe the house, and its entrances, and the plan thereof, and all its ordinances, and thou shalt make known to them all the regulations of it, and describe [them] before them: and they shall keep all my commandments, and all my ordinances, and do them.
12 宮の規定はこれである。山の頂の四方の地域はみな最も聖である。見よ、これは宮の規定である。
And thou shalt shew the plan of the house on the top of the mountain: all its limits round about [shall be] most holy.
13 祭壇の寸法はキュビトですれば、次のようである。（そのキュビトは一キュビトと一手幅である。）土台は高さ一キュビト、幅一キュビト、その周囲の縁は半キュビトである。
And these are the measures of the altar by the cubit of a cubit and a span, the cavity [shall be] a cubit deep, and a cubit shall be the breadth, and the border on the rim of it round about shall be a span: and this [shall be] the height of the altar
14 祭壇の高さは、次のとおりである。地面の土台から下のかさねまで二キュビト、幅は一キュビト、また小さいかさねから大きいかさねまで四キュビト、その幅は一キュビトである。
from the bottom at the commencement of the hollow part to this great mercy-seat, from beneath was two cubits, and the breadth was a cubit; and from the little mercy-seat to the great mercy-seat, four cubits, and the breadth was a cubit.
15 祭壇の炉は四キュビトで、祭壇の炉から高さ一キュビトの角が四本出ていた。
And the altar [shall be] four cubits; and from the altar and above the horns a cubit.
16 炉は長さ十二キュビト、幅十二キュビトの四角形である。
And the altar [shall be] of the length of twelve cubits, by twelve cubits [in breadth], square upon its four sides.
17 そのかさねは四方とも長さ十四キュビト、幅十四キュビトの四角形、その周囲の縁は幅半キュビト、その台は四方一キュビト、その階段は東に面する」。
And the mercy-seat [shall be] fourteen cubits in length, by fourteen cubits in breadth on its four sides; and [there shall be] a border to it carried round about it of half a cubit; and the rim of it [shall be] a cubit round about; and the steps thereof looking eastward.
18 彼はわたしに言った、「人の子よ、主なる神はこう言われる、祭壇を建て、その上に燔祭をささげ、これに血を注ぐ日には、次のことを祭壇の定めとせよ。
And he said to me, Son of man, thus saith the Lord God of Israel; These are the ordinances of the altar in the day of its being made, to offer upon it whole-burnt-offerings, and to pour blood upon it.
19 すなわち主なる神は言われる、ザドクの子孫で、わたしに近く仕えるレビびとである祭司には、罪祭のために雄牛の子を与えよ。
And thou shalt appoint to the priests the Levites of the seed of Sadduc, that draw nigh to me, saith the Lord God, to minister to me, a calf of the herd for a sin-offering.
20 またその血をとって、これを祭壇の四つの角と、かさねの四すみと、周囲の縁に塗って、祭壇を清め、これをあがなえ。
And they shall take of its blood, and shall put [it] on the four horns of the altar, and upon the four corners of the propitiatory, and upon the base round about, and they shall make atonement for it.
21 あなたはまた罪祭の牛をとって、これを聖所の外、宮のうちの定められた所で焼け。
And they shall take the calf of the sin-offering, and it shall be consumed by fire in the separate place of the house, outside the sanctuary.
22 第二日に、あなたは無傷の雄やぎを、罪祭としてささげよ。すなわち雄牛で清めたように、これで祭壇を清めよ。
And on the second day they shall take two kids of the goats without blemish for a sin-offering; and they shall make atonement for the altar, as they made atonement with the calf.
23 清めごとを終えたなら、無傷の雄牛の子と、群れの中の無傷の雄羊とをささげよ。
And after they have finished the atonement, they shall bring an unblemished calf of the herd, and an unblemished ram of the flock.
24 これを主の前に持ってきて、祭司らはその上に塩をまき、これらを燔祭として主にささげよ。
And ye shall offer [them] before the Lord, and the priests shall sprinkle salt upon them, and shall offer them up [as] whole-burnt-offerings to the Lord.
25 七日の間、あなたは日々雄やぎを罪祭とせよ。また雄牛の子と、群れの中の雄羊との無傷のものをととのえ、
Seven days shalt thou offer a kid daily for a sin-offering, and a calf of the herd, and a ram out of the flock: they shall sacrifice them unblemished for seven days:
26 七日の間、彼らは祭壇をあがない、これを清め、これを聖別しなければならない。
and they shall make atonement for the altar, and shall purge it; and they shall consecrate themselves.
27 彼らがこれらの日を満たしたとき、八日目から後は、祭司たちは、あなたがたの燔祭と、酬恩祭とを祭壇の上に供える。そうすれば、わたしは、あなたがたを受けいれると、主なる神は言われる」。
And it shall come to pass from the eighth day and onward, [that] the priests shall offer your whole-burnt-offerings on the altar, and your peace-offerings; and I will accept you, saith the Lord.
