イザヤ書 1
1 アモツの子イザヤがユダの王ウジヤ、ヨタム、アハズ、ヒゼキヤのときに示されたるユダとヱルサレムとに係る異象
The vision of Isaiah the son of Amoz, which he saw concerning Judah and Jerusalem in the days of Uzziah, Jotham, Ahaz, and Hezekiah, kings of Judah.
2 天よきけ地よ耳をかたぶけよ ヱホバの語りたまふ言あり 曰く われ子をやしなひ育てしにかれらは我にそむけり
Hear, O heavens, and give ear, O earth: for the LORD has spoken, I have nourished and brought up children, and they have rebelled against me.
3 牛はその主をしり驢馬はそのあるじの廐をしる 然どイスラエルは識ず わが民はさとらず
The ox knows his owner, and the ass his master’s crib: but Israel does not know, my people does not consider.
4 ああ罪ををかせる國人よこしまを負ふたみ 惡をなす者のすゑ壞りそこなふ種族 かれらはヱホバをすてイスラエルの聖者をあなどり之をうとみて退きたり
Ah sinful nation, a people laden with iniquity, a seed of evildoers, children that are corrupters: they have forsaken the LORD, they have provoked the Holy One of Israel to anger, they are gone away backward.
5 なんぢら何ぞかさねがさね悖りて猶撻れんとするか その頭はやまざる所なくその心はつかれはてたり
Why should you be stricken any more? you will revolt more and more: the whole head is sick, and the whole heart faint.
6 足のうらより頭にいたるまで全きところなくただ創痍と打傷と腫物とのみなり 而してこれを合すものなく包むものなく亦あぶらにて軟らぐる者もなし
From the sole of the foot even to the head there is no soundness in it; but wounds, and bruises, and putrefying sores: they have not been closed, neither bound up, neither mollified with ointment.
7 なんぢらの國はあれすたれなんぢらの諸邑は火にてやかれなんぢらの田畑はその前にて外人にのまれ既にあだし人にくつがへされて荒廢れたり
Your country is desolate, your cities are burned with fire: your land, strangers devour it in your presence, and it is desolate, as overthrown by strangers.
8 シオンの女はぶだうぞのの廬のごとく瓜田の假舎のごとくまた圍をうけたる城のごとく唯ひとり遺れり
And the daughter of Zion is left as a cottage in a vineyard, as a lodge in a garden of cucumbers, as a besieged city.
9 萬軍のヱホバわれらに少しの遺をとどめ給ふことなくば我儕はソドムのごとく又ゴモラに同じかりしならん
Except the LORD of hosts had left to us a very small remnant, we should have been as Sodom, and we should have been like to Gomorrah.
10 なんぢらソドムの有司よヱホバの言をきけ なんぢらゴモラの民よわれらの神の律法に耳をかたぶけよ
Hear the word of the LORD, you rulers of Sodom; give ear to the law of our God, you people of Gomorrah.
11 ヱホバ言たまはくなんぢらが獻ぐるおほくの犠牲はわれに何の益あらんや我はをひつじの燔祭とこえたるけものの膏とにあけり われは牡牛あるひは小羊あるひは牡山羊の血をよろこばず
To what purpose is the multitude of your sacrifices to me? says the LORD: I am full of the burnt offerings of rams, and the fat of fed beasts; and I delight not in the blood of bullocks, or of lambs, or of he goats.
12 なんぢらは我に見えんとてきたる このことを誰がなんぢらに要めしや 徒らにわが庭をふむのみなり
When you come to appear before me, who has required this at your hand, to tread my courts?
13 むなしき祭物をふたたび携ふることなかれ 燻物はわがにくむところ 新月および安息日また會衆をよびあつむることも我がにくむところなり なんぢらは聖會に惡を兼ぬ われ容すにたへず
Bring no more vain oblations; incense is an abomination to me; the new moons and sabbaths, the calling of assemblies, I cannot away with; it is iniquity, even the solemn meeting.
14 わが心はなんぢらの新月と節會とをきらふ 是わが重荷なりわれ負にうみたり
Your new moons and your appointed feasts my soul hates: they are a trouble to me; I am weary to bear them.
15 我なんぢらが手をのぶるとき目をおほひ 汝等がおほくの祈祷をなすときも聞ことをせじ なんぢらの手には血みちたり
And when you spread forth your hands, I will hide my eyes from you: yes, when you make many prayers, I will not hear: your hands are full of blood.
16 なんぢら己をあらひ己をきょくしわが眼前よりその惡業をさり惡をおこなふことを止め
Wash you, make you clean; put away the evil of your doings from before my eyes; cease to do evil;
17 善をおこなふことをならひ 公平をもとめ虐げらるる者をたすけ 孤児に公平をおこなひ寡婦の訟をあげつらへ
Learn to do well; seek judgment, relieve the oppressed, judge the fatherless, plead for the widow.
18 ヱホバいひたまはく 率われらともに論らはん なんぢらの罪は緋のごとくなるも雪のごとく白くなり紅のごとく赤くとも羊の毛のごとくにならん
Come now, and let us reason together, says the LORD: though your sins be as scarlet, they shall be as white as snow; though they be red like crimson, they shall be as wool.
19 若なんぢら肯ひしたがはば地の美産をくらふことを得べし
If you be willing and obedient, you shall eat the good of the land:
20 もし汝等こばみそむかば劍にのまるべし 此はヱホバその御口よりかたりたまヘるなり
But if you refuse and rebel, you shall be devoured with the sword: for the mouth of the LORD has spoken it.
21 忠信なりし邑いかにして妓女とはなれる 昔しは公平にてみち正義その中にやどりしに今は人をころす者ばかりとなりぬ
How is the faithful city become an harlot! it was full of judgment; righteousness lodged in it; but now murderers.
22 なんぢの白銀は滓となり なんぢ葡萄酒は水をまじへ
Your silver is become dross, your wine mixed with water:
23 なんぢの長輩はそむきて盗人の伴侶となり おのおの賄賂をよろこび贈財をおひもとめ 孤児に公平をおこなはず寡婦の訟はかれらの前にいづるとと能はず
Your princes are rebellious, and companions of thieves: every one loves gifts, and follows after rewards: they judge not the fatherless, neither does the cause of the widow come to them.
24 このゆゑに主萬軍のヱホバ、イスラエルの全能者のたまはく 唆われ敵にむかひて念をはらし仇にむかひて報をすべし
Therefore says the LORD, the LORD of hosts, the mighty One of Israel, Ah, I will ease me of my adversaries, and avenge me of my enemies:
25 我また手をなんぢの上にそへ なんぢの滓をことごとく淨くし なんぢの鉛をすべて取去り
And I will turn my hand on you, and purely purge away your dross, and take away all your tin:
26 なんぢの審士を舊のごとく なんぢの議官を始のごとくに復すべし 然るのちなんぢは正義の邑忠信の邑ととなへられん
And I will restore your judges as at the first, and your counsellors as at the beginning: afterward you shall be called, The city of righteousness, the faithful city.
27 シオンは公平をもてあがなはれ 歸來るものも正義をもて贖はるべし
Zion shall be redeemed with judgment, and her converts with righteousness.
28 されど愆ををかすものと罪人とはともに敗れ ヱホバをすつる者もまた亡びうせん
And the destruction of the transgressors and of the sinners shall be together, and they that forsake the LORD shall be consumed.
29 なんぢらはその喜びたる橿樹によりて恥をいだき そのえらびたる園によりて慙赧むべし
For they shall be ashamed of the oaks which you have desired, and you shall be confounded for the gardens that you have chosen.
30 なんぢらは葉のかるる橿樹のごとく水なき園のごとくならん
For you shall be as an oak whose leaf fades, and as a garden that has no water.
31 權勢あるものは麻のごとくその工は火花のごとく 二つのもの一同もえてこれを撲滅すものなし
And the strong shall be as wick, and the maker of it as a spark, and they shall both burn together, and none shall quench them.
