ゼカリヤ書 6
1 我また目を擧て觀しに四輌の車二の山の間より出きたれりその山は銅の山なり
And I turned, and lifted up my eyes, and looked, and, behold, there came four chariots out from between two mountains; and the mountains were mountains of brass.
2 第一の車には赤馬を着け第二の車には黒馬を着け
In the first chariot were red horses; and in the second chariot black horses;
3 第三の車には白馬を着け第四の車には白點なる強馬を着く
And in the third chariot white horses; and in the fourth chariot spotted and bay horses.
4 我すなはち我に語ふ天の使に問て我主よ是等は何なるやと言けるに
Then I answered and said to the angel that talked with me, What are these, my lord?
5 天の使こたへて我に言ふ是は四の天風にして全地の主の前より罷り出たる者なり
And the angel answered and said to me, These are the four spirits of the heavens, which go forth from standing before the LORD of all the earth.
6 黒馬は北の地をさして進み行き白馬その後に從ふ又白點馬は南の地をさして進みゆき
The black horses which are therein go forth into the north country; and the white go forth after them; and the spotted go forth toward the south country.
7 強馬は進み出て地を徧く行めぐらんとす彼汝ら往き地を徧くめぐれと言たまひければ則ち地を行めぐれり
And the bay went forth, and sought to go that they might walk to and fro through the earth: and he said, Get you hence, walk to and fro through the earth. So they walked to and fro through the earth.
8 彼われを呼て我に告て言ふ此北の地に往る者等は北の地にて我靈を安んず
Then cried he on me, and spoke to me, saying, Behold, these that go toward the north country have quieted my spirit in the north country.
9 ヱホバの言われに臨めり曰く
And the word of the LORD came to me, saying,
10 汝かの囚虜人の中の者ヘルダイ、トビヤおよびヱダヤより取ことをせよ即ちその日に汝かれらがバビロンより歸りて宿りをるゼパニヤの子ヨシヤの家に到り
Take of them of the captivity, even of Heldai, of Tobijah, and of Jedaiah, which are come from Babylon, and come you the same day, and go into the house of Josiah the son of Zephaniah;
11 金銀を取て冠冕を造りヨザダクの子なる祭司の長ヨシユアの首にこれを冠らせ
Then take silver and gold, and make crowns, and set them on the head of Joshua the son of Josedech, the high priest;
12 彼に語りて言べし萬軍のヱホバ斯言たまふ視よ人ありその名を枝といふ彼おのれの處より生いでてヱホバの宮を建ん
And speak to him, saying, Thus speaks the LORD of hosts, saying, Behold the man whose name is The BRANCH; and he shall grow up out of his place, and he shall build the temple of the LORD:
13 即ち彼者ヱホバの宮を建て尊榮を帶びその位に坐して政事を施しその位にありて祭司とならん此二の者の間に平和の計議あるべし
Even he shall build the temple of the LORD; and he shall bear the glory, and shall sit and rule on his throne; and he shall be a priest on his throne: and the counsel of peace shall be between them both.
14 偖またその冠冕はヘレム、トビヤ、ユダヤおよびゼパニヤの子ヘンの記念のために之をヱホバの殿に納むべし
And the crowns shall be to Helem, and to Tobijah, and to Jedaiah, and to Hen the son of Zephaniah, for a memorial in the temple of the LORD.
15 遠き處の者等來りてヱホバの殿を建ん而して汝らは萬軍のヱホバの我を遣したまひしなるを知にいたらん汝らもし汝らの神ヱホバの聲に聽したがはば是のごとくなるべし
And they that are far off shall come and build in the temple of the LORD, and you shall know that the LORD of hosts has sent me to you. And this shall come to pass, if you will diligently obey the voice of the LORD your God.
