イザヤ書 8
1 ヱホバ我にいひたまひけるは一の大なる牌をとりそのうへに平常の文字にてマヘル シャラル ハシ バズと録せ
And Jehovah said to me, Take thee a great tablet, and with a man's writing-instrument write on it, Hasteth-the-prey, Speedeth-the-spoil.
2 われ信實の證者なる祭司ウリヤおよびエベレキヤの子ゼカリヤをもてその證をなさしむ
And I took with me faithful witnesses, Uriah the priest, and Zechariah, the son of Berechiah.
3 われ預言者の妻にちかづきしとき彼はらみて子をうみければ ヱホバ我にいひたまはく その名をマヘル シャラル ハシ バズと稱へよ
I went in to the prophetess, and she conceived and bore a son. Then said Jehovah to me, Call his name, Hasteth-the-prey, Speedeth-the-spoil.
4 そはこの子いまだ我が父わが母とよぶことを知らざるうちにダマスコの富とサマリヤの財寳はうばはれてアツスリヤ王のまへに到るべければなり
For before the child shall learn to say, My father, and My mother, the riches of Damascus and the spoil of Samaria shall be borne away before the king of Assyria.
5 ヱホバまた重て我につげたまへり云く
Moreover, Jehovah spake to me again, saying:
6 この民はゆるやかに流るるシロアの水をすててレヂンとレマリヤの子とをよろこぶ
Because this people despiseth The soft-flowing waters of Siloah, And rejoiceth in Rezin, and the son of Remaliah,
7 此によりて主はいきほひ猛くみなぎりわたる大河の水をかれらのうヘに堰入たまはん 是はアツスリヤ王とそのもろもろの威勢とにして 百の支流にはびこりもろもろの岸をこえ
Therefore, behold, the Lord bringeth upon them the strong and mighty waters of the river; [[The king of Assyria and all his glory.]] He shall rise above all his channels, And go over all his banks.
8 ユダにながれいり溢れひろごりてその項にまで及ばん インマヌエルよそののぶる翼はあまねくなんぢの地にみちわたらん
And he shall pass through Judah, overflowing and spreading; Even to the neck shall he reach, And his stretched-out wings shall fill the whole breadth of thy land, O Immanuel!
9 もろもろの民よさばめき騒げなんぢら摧かるべし 遠きくにぐにの者よきけ腰におびせよ汝等くだかるべし 腰に帯せよなんぢら摧かるべし
Rage, ye nations, and despair! Give ear, all ye distant parts of the earth! Gird yourselves, and despair! Gird yourselves, and despair!
10 なんぢら互にはかれつひに徒勞ならん なんぢら言をいだせ遂におこなはれじ そは神われらとともに在せばなり
Form your plan, and it shall come to naught; Give the command, and it shall not stand; For God is with us.
11 ヱホバつよき手をもて此如われに示しこの民の路にあゆまざらんことを我にさとして言給はく
For thus spake Jehovah to me with a strong hand, Instructing me not to walk in the way of this people:
12 此民のすべて叛逆ととなふるところの者をなんぢら叛逆ととなふるなかれ 彼等のおそるるところを汝等おそるるなかれ慴くなかれ
Call not everything a confederacy which this people calleth a confederacy; Fear ye not what they fear, Neither be afraid!
13 なんぢらはただ萬軍のヱホバを聖としてこれを畏みこれを恐るべし
Jehovah of hosts, sanctify ye him; Let him be your fear, and let him be your dread!
14 然らばヱホバはきよき避所となりたまはん 然どイスラエルの兩の家には躓く石となり妨ぐる磐とならん ヱルサレムの民には網罟となり機濫とならん
And he shall be to you a sanctuary; But a stone of stumbling, and a rock to strike against, To the two houses of Israel, A trap and a snare to the inhabitants of Jerusalem.
15 おほくの人々これによりて蹶きかつ仆れやぶれ網せられまた捕へらるべし
And many among them shall stumble; They shall fall, and be broken; They shall be ensnared and taken.
16 證詞をつかね律法をわが弟子のうちに封べし
Bind up the revelation, Seal the word, with my disciples!
17 いま面をおほひてヤコブの家をかへりみ給はずといヘども我そのヱホバを待そのヱホバを望みまつらん
I will, therefore, wait for Jehovah, Who now hideth his face from the house of Jacob; Yet will I look for him.
18 視よわれとヱホバが我にたまひたる子輩とはイスラエルのうちの豫兆なり奇しき標なり此はシオンの山にいます萬軍のヱホバの與へたまふ所なり
Behold, I, and the children which Jehovah hath given me, Are signs and tokens in Israel From Jehovah of hosts, who dwelleth upon mount Zion.
19 もし人なんぢらにつげて巫女および魔術者のさえづるがごとく細語がごとき者にもとめよといはば民はおのれの神にもとむべきにあらずやいかで活者のために死者にもとむることを爲んといへ
And when they shall say to you, “Inquire of the necromancers and the wizards, That chirp, and that murmur,” [[Then say ye, ]] “Should not a people inquire of their God? Should they inquire of the dead for the living?”
20 ただ律法と證詞とを求むべし彼等のいふところ此言にかなはずば晨光あらじ
To the word, to the revelation! If they speak not according to this, For them no bright morning shall arise.
21 かれら國をヘあるきて苦みうゑん その飢るとき怒をはなち己が王おのが神をさして誼ひかつその面をうへに向ん
They shall pass through the land distressed and famished; And when they are famished, they shall be enraged, and curse their king and their God, And look upward.
22 また地をみれば艱難と幽暗とくるしみの闇とあり かれらは昏黒におひやられん
And if they look to the earth, Behold distress and darkness, fearful darkness! And into darkness shall they be driven.
