< イザヤ書 2 >
1 アモツの子イザヤが示されたるユダとヱルサレムとにかかる言
The word that Isaiah the son of Amoz saw concerning Judah and Jerusalem.
2 すゑの日にヱホバの家の山はもろもろの山のいただきに堅立ち もろもろの嶺よりもたかく擧り すべての國は流のごとく之につかん
And it shall come to pass in the end of days, [that] the mountain of Jehovah's house shall be established on the top of the mountains, and shall be lifted up above the hills; and all the nations shall flow unto it.
3 おほくの民ゆきて相語いはん 率われらヱホバの山にのぼりヤコブの神の家にゆかん神われらにその道ををしヘ給はん われらその路をあゆむべしと そは律法はシオンよりいでヱホバの言はヱルサレムより出べければなり
And many peoples shall go and say, Come, and let us go up to the mountain of Jehovah, to the house of the God of Jacob; and he will teach us of his ways, and we will walk in his paths. For out of Zion shall go forth the law, and Jehovah's word from Jerusalem.
4 ヱホバはもろもろの國のあひだを鞫き おほくの民をせめたまはん 斯てかれらはその劒をうちかへて鋤となし その鎗をうちかへて鎌となし 國は國にむかひて劒をあげず戰鬪のことを再びまなばざるべし
And he shall judge among the nations, and shall reprove many peoples; and they shall forge their swords into ploughshares, and their spears into pruning-knives: nation shall not lift up sword against nation, neither shall they learn war any more.
House of Jacob, come ye, and let us walk in the light of Jehovah.
6 主よなんぢはその民ヤコブの家をすてたまへり 此はかれらのなかに東のかたの風俗みち 皆ぺリシテ人のごとく陰陽師となり 異邦人のともがらと手をうちて盟をたてしが故なり
For thou hast cast off thy people, the house of Jacob, because they are filled [with what comes] from the east, and use auguries like the Philistines, and ally themselves with the children of foreigners.
7 かれらの國には黄金白銀みちて財寶の數かぎりなし かれらの國には馬みちて戰車のかず限りなし
And their land is full of silver and gold, and there is no end of their treasures: their land also is full of horses, and there is no end of their chariots.
8 かれらの國には偶像みち皆おのが手の工その指のつくれる者ををがめり
And their land is full of idols; they bow themselves down to the work of their own hands, to that which their fingers have made.
9 賤しきものは屈められ尊きものは卑せらる かれらを容したまふなかれ
And the mean man shall be bowed down, and the great man shall be brought low: and do not thou forgive them!
10 なんぢ岩間にいりまた土にかくれてヱホバの畏るべき容貌とその稜威の光輝とをさくべし
Enter into the rock, and hide thee in the dust, from before the terror of Jehovah, and from the glory of his majesty.
11 この日には目をあげて高ぶるもの卑せられ 驕る人かがめられ唯ヱホバのみ高くあげられ給はん
The lofty eyes of man shall be brought low, and the haughtiness of men shall be bowed down, and Jehovah alone shall be exalted in that day.
12 そは萬軍のヱホバの一の日あり すべて高ぶる者おごる者みづからを崇るものの上にのぞみて之をひくくし
For there shall be a day of Jehovah of hosts upon everything proud and lofty, and upon everything lifted up, and it shall be brought low;
13 またレバノンのたかく聳たるすべての香柏バシャンのすべての橿樹
and upon all the cedars of Lebanon, high and lifted up, and upon all the oaks of Bashan;
and upon all the lofty mountains, and upon all the hills that are lifted up;
and upon every high tower, and upon every fenced wall;
16 およびタルシシのすべての舟すべての慕ふべき美はしきものに臨むべし
and upon all the ships of Tarshish, and upon all pleasant works of art.
17 この日には高ぶる者はかがめられ 驕る人はひくくせられ 唯ヱホバのみ高くあげられ給はん
And the loftiness of man shall be bowed down, and the haughtiness of men shall be brought low; and Jehovah alone shall be exalted in that day:
and the idols shall utterly pass away.
19 ヱホバたちて地を震動したまふとき人々そのおそるべき容貌とその稜威の光輝とをさけて巌の洞と地の穴とにいらん
And they shall go into the caves of the rocks, and into the holes of the earth, from before the terror of Jehovah, and from the glory of his majesty, when he shall arise to terrify the earth.
20 その日人々おのが拝せんとて造れる白銀ぐうざうと黄金のぐうざうとを鼹鼠のあな蝙蝠の穴になげすて
In that day men shall cast away their idols of silver and their idols of gold, which they made [each] for himself to worship, to the moles and to the bats;
21 岩々の隙けはしき山峽にいりヱホバの起て地をふるひうごかしたまふその畏るべき容貌と稜威のかがやきとを避ん
to go into the clefts of the rocks, and into the fissures of the cliffs, from before the terror of Jehovah, and from the glory of his majesty, when he shall arise to terrify the earth.
22 なんぢら鼻より息のいでいりする人に倚ることをやめよ斯るものは何ぞかぞふるに足らん
Cease ye from man, whose breath is in his nostrils; for what account is to be made of him?
