イザヤ書 14
1 ヱホバ、ヤコブを憐みイスラエルをふたたび撰びて之をおのれの地におきたまはん異邦人これに加りてヤコブの家にむすびつらなるべし
For the LORD will have compassion on Jacob, and will yet choose Israel, and set them in their own land. The foreigner will join himself with them, and they will unite with the house of Jacob.
2 もろもろの民はかれらをその處にたづさへいたらん而してイスラエルの家はヱホバの地にてこれを奴婢となし曩におのれを虜にしたるものを虜にしおのれを虐げたるものを治めん
The peoples will take them, and bring them to their place. The house of Israel will possess them in the LORD's land for servants and for handmaids. They will take as captives those whose captives they were; and they shall rule over their oppressors.
3 ヱホバなんぢの憂と艱難とをのぞき亦なんぢが勤むるからき役をのぞきて安息をたまふの日
It will happen in the day that the LORD will give you rest from your sorrow, from your trouble, and from the hard service in which you were made to serve,
4 なんぢこの歌をとなヘバビロン王をせめていはん虐ぐる者いかにして息みしや金をはたる者いかにして息みしやと
that you will take up this parable against the king of Babylon, and say, "How the oppressor has ceased. How the attacker has ceased."
5 ヱホバあしきものの笞ともろもろの有司の杖とををりたまへり
The LORD has broken the staff of the wicked, the scepter of the rulers,
6 かれらは怒をもてもろもろの民をたえず撃てはうち忿恚をもてもろもろの國ををさむれどその暴虐をとどむる者なかりき
who struck the peoples in wrath with a continual stroke, who ruled the nations in anger, with a persecution that none restrained.
7 今は全地やすみを得おだやかを得ことごとく聲をあげてうたふ
The whole earth is at rest, and is quiet. They break out song.
8 實にまつの樹およびレバノンの香柏さへもなんぢの故により歡びていふ汝すでに仆たれば樵夫のぼりきたりてわれらを攻ることなしと
Yes, the fir trees rejoice with you, with the cedars of Lebanon, saying, "Since you are humbled, no lumberjack has come up against us."
Sheol from beneath has moved for you to meet you at your coming. It stirs up the dead for you, even all the rulers of the earth. It has raised up from their thrones all the kings of the nations. (Sheol h7585)
10 かれらは皆なんぢに告ていはん汝もわれらのごとく弱くなりしや汝もわれらと同じくなりしやと
They all will answer and ask you, "Have you also become as weak as we are? Have you become like us?"
Your pomp is brought down to Sheol, with the sound of your stringed instruments. Maggots are spread out under you, and worms cover you. (Sheol h7585)
12 あしたの子明星よいかにして天より隕しやもろもろの國をたふしし者よいかにして斫れて地にたふれしや
How you have fallen from heaven, morning star, son of the dawn. How you are cut down to the ground, who laid the nations low.
13 汝さきに心中におもへらくわれ天にのぼり我くらゐを神の星のうへにあげ北の極なる集會の山にざし
You said in your heart, "I will ascend into heaven. I will exalt my throne above the stars of God. I will sit on the mountain of assembly, in the far north.
14 たかき雲漢にのぼり至上者のごとくなるべしと
I will ascend above the heights of the clouds. I will make myself like the Most High."
Yet you shall be brought down to Sheol, to the depths of the Pit. (Sheol h7585)
16 なんぢを見るものは熟々なんぢを視なんぢに目をとめていはんこの人は地をふるはせ列國をうごかし
Those who see you will stare at you. They will ponder you, saying, "Is this the man who made the earth to tremble, who shook kingdoms;
17 世を荒野のごとくしもろもろの邑をこぼち捕へたるものをその家にときかへさざりしものなるかと
who made the world like a wilderness, and overthrew its cities; who did not release his prisoners to their home?"
18 もろもろの國の王たちはことごとく皆たふとき状にておのおのその家にねぶる
All the kings of the nations lie in splendor, everyone in his own house.
19 然どなんぢは忌きらふべき枝のごとくおのが墓のそとにすてられその周圍には劍にて刺ころされ坑におろされ石におほはれたる者ありて踐つけらるる屍にことならず
But you are cast away from your tomb like an abominable branch, clothed with the slain, who are thrust through with the sword, who go down to the stones of the pit; like a dead body trodden under foot.
20 汝おのれの國をほろぼしおのれの民をころししが故にかれらとおなじく葬らるることあたはずそれ惡をおこなふものの裔はとこしへに名をよばるることなかるべし
You will not join them in burial, because you have destroyed your land. You have killed your people. The offspring of evildoers will not be mentioned forever.
21 先祖のよこしまの故をもてその子孫のために戮場をそなへ彼等をしてたちて地をとり世界のおもてに邑をみたすことなからしめよ
Prepare for slaughter of his children because of the iniquity of their fathers, that they not rise up and possess the earth, and fill the surface of the world with cities.
22 萬軍のヱホバのたまはく我立てかれらを攻めバビロンよりその名と遺りたるものとを絶滅しその子その孫をたちほろぼさんとこれヱホバの聖言なり
"I will rise up against them," says the LORD of hosts, "and cut off from Babylon name and remnant, and son and son's son," says the LORD.
23 われバビロンを刺蝟のすみかとし沼とし且ほろびの箒をもてこれを掃除かんとこれ萬軍のヱホバのみことばなり
"I will also make it a possession for the porcupine, and pools of water. I will sweep it with the broom of destruction," says the LORD of hosts.
24 萬軍のヱホバ誓をたてて言給はくわがおもひし事はかならず成わがさだめし事はかならず立ん
The LORD of hosts has sworn, saying, "Surely, as I have thought, so shall it happen; and as I have purposed, so shall it stand:
25 われアツスリヤ人をわが地にてうちやぶりわが山々にてふみにじらんここにおいて彼がおきし軛はイスラエル人よりはなれ彼がおはせし重負はイスラエル人の肩よりはなるべし
that I will break the Assyrian in my land, and tread him under foot on my mountains. Then his yoke will leave them, and his burden leave their shoulders.
26 これは全地のことにつきて定めたる謀略なり是はもろもろの國のうへに伸したる手なり
This is the plan that is determined for the whole earth. This is the hand that is stretched out over all the nations.
27 萬軍のヱホバさだめたまへり誰かこれを破ることを得んやその手をのばしたまへり誰かこれを押返すことを得んや
For the LORD of hosts has planned, and who can stop it? His hand is stretched out, and who can turn it back?"
28 アハズ王の死たる年おもにの預言ありき
This burden was in the year that king Ahaz died.
29 曰くペリシテの全地よなんぢをうちし杖をれたればとて喜ぶなかれ蛇の根より蝮いでその果はとびかける巨蛇となるべければなり
Do not rejoice, O Philistia, all of you, because the rod that struck you is broken; for out of the serpent's root an adder will emerge, and his fruit will be a fiery flying serpent.
30 いと貧しきものはものくひ乏しきものは安然にふさんわれ飢饉をもてなんぢの根をしなせ汝がのこれる者をころすべし
The firstborn of the poor will eat, and the needy will lie down in safety; and I will kill your root with famine, and your remnant will be killed.
31 門よなげけ邑よさけべペリシテよなんぢの全地きえうせたりそはけぶり北よりいできたりその軍兵の列におくるるものなし
Howl, gate. Cry, city. You are melted away, Philistia, all of you; for smoke comes out of the north, and there is no straggler in his ranks.
32 その國の使者たちに何とこたふべきや答ヘていはんヱホバ、シオンの基をおきたまへりその民のなかの苦しむものは避所をこの中にえん
What then is one to answer the messengers of this nation? That the LORD has founded Zion, and in her the afflicted of his people will take refuge.
