< Ezekiel 14 >

1 Then came certain of the elders of Israel unto me, and sat before me.
爰にイスラエルの長老の中の人々我にきたりて吾前に坐しけるに
2 And the word of the LORD came unto me, saying,
ヱホバの言われに臨みて言ふ
3 Son of man, these men have set up their idols in their heart, and put the stumblingblock of their iniquity before their face: should I be enquired of at all by them?
人の子よこの人々はその偶像を心の中に立しめ罪に陷いるるところの障礙をその面の前に置なり我あに是等の者の求を容べけんや
4 Therefore speak unto them, and say unto them, Thus saith the Lord GOD; Every man of the house of Israel that setteth up his idols in his heart, and putteth the stumblingblock of his iniquity before his face, and cometh to the prophet; I the LORD will answer him that cometh according to the multitude of his idols;
然ば汝かれらに告げて言ふべし主ヱホバかくいひたまふ凡そイスラエルの家の人のその心の中に偶像を立しめその面のまへに罪に陷いるるところの障礙を置きて預言者に來る者には我ヱホバその偶像の多衆にしたがひて應をなすべし
5 That I may take the house of Israel in their own heart, because they are all estranged from me through their idols.
斯して我イスラエルの家の人の心を執へん是かれら皆その偶像のために我を離れたればなり
6 Therefore say unto the house of Israel, Thus saith the Lord GOD; Repent, and turn [yourselves] from your idols; and turn away your faces from all your abominations.
是故にイスラエルの家に言ふべし主ヱホバかくいひたまふ汝等悔い汝らの偶像を棄てはなるべし汝等面を回らしてその諸の憎むべき物を離れよ
7 For every one of the house of Israel, or of the stranger that sojourneth in Israel, which separateth himself from me, and setteth up his idols in his heart, and putteth the stumblingblock of his iniquity before his face, and cometh to a prophet to enquire of him concerning me; I the LORD will answer him by myself:
凡てイスラエルの家およびイスラエルに寓るところの外國人若われを離れてその偶像を心の中に立しめ其面の前に罪に陷るるところの障礙をおきて預言者に來りその心のままに我に求むる時は我ヱホバわが心のままにこれに應ふべし
8 And I will set my face against that man, and will make him a sign and a proverb, and I will cut him off from the midst of my people; and ye shall know that I [am] the LORD.
即ち我面をその人にむけこれを滅して兆象となし諺語となし之をわが民の中より絕さるべし汝等これによりて我がヱホバなるを知るにいたらん
9 And if the prophet be deceived when he hath spoken a thing, I the LORD have deceived that prophet, and I will stretch out my hand upon him, and will destroy him from the midst of my people Israel.
もし預言者欺かれて言を出すことあらば我ヱホバその預言者を欺けるなり我かれの上にわが手を伸べ吾民イスラエルの中より彼を絕さらん
10 And they shall bear the punishment of their iniquity: the punishment of the prophet shall be even as the punishment of him that seeketh [unto him; ]
彼等その罪を負ふべしその預言者の罪はかの問求むる者の罪のごとくなるべし
11 That the house of Israel may go no more astray from me, neither be polluted any more with all their transgressions; but that they may be my people, and I may be their God, saith the Lord GOD.
是イスラエルの民をして重ねて我を離れて迷はざらしめ重ねてその諸の愆に汚れざらしめんため又かれらの吾民となり我の彼らの神とならんためなり主ヱホバこれをいふ
12 The word of the LORD came again to me, saying,
ヱホバの言また我にのぞみて言ふ
13 Son of man, when the land sinneth against me by trespassing grievously, then will I stretch out mine hand upon it, and will break the staff of the bread thereof, and will send famine upon it, and will cut off man and beast from it:
人の子よ國もし悖れる事をおこなひて我に罪を犯すことあり我手をその上に伸て其杖とたのむところのパンを打碎き饑饉を之におくりて人と畜とをその中より絕ことある時には
14 Though these three men, Noah, Daniel, and Job, were in it, they should deliver [but] their own souls by their righteousness, saith the Lord GOD.
其處にかのノア、ダニエル、ヨブの三人あるも只其義によりて己の生命を救ふことをうるのみなり主ヱホバこれをいふ
15 If I cause noisome beasts to pass through the land, and they spoil it, so that it be desolate, that no man may pass through because of the beasts:
我もし惡き獸を國に行めぐらしめて之を子なき處となし荒野となして其獸のために其處を通る者なきに至らん時には
16 [Though] these three men [were] in it, [as] I live, saith the Lord GOD, they shall deliver neither sons nor daughters; they only shall be delivered, but the land shall be desolate.
主ヱホバ言ふ我は活く此三人そこにをるもその子女を救ふことをえず只その身を救ふことを得るのみ國は荒野となるべし
17 Or [if] I bring a sword upon that land, and say, Sword, go through the land; so that I cut off man and beast from it:
又は我劍を國に臨ませて劍よ國を行めぐるべしと言ひ人と畜をそこより絕さらん時には
18 Though these three men [were] in it, [as] I live, saith the Lord GOD, they shall deliver neither sons nor daughters, but they only shall be delivered themselves.
主ヱホバいふ我は活く此三人そこにをるもその子女をすくふことをえず只その身をすくふことを得るのみ
19 Or [if] I send a pestilence into that land, and pour out my fury upon it in blood, to cut off from it man and beast:
又われ疫病を國におくり血をもてわが怒をその上にそそぎ人と畜をそこより絕さらん時には
20 Though Noah, Daniel, and Job, [were] in it, [as] I live, saith the Lord GOD, they shall deliver neither son nor daughter; they shall [but] deliver their own souls by their righteousness.
主ヱホバいふ我は活くノア、ダニエル、ヨブそこにをるもその子女を救ふことをえず只その義によりて己の生命を救ふことを得るのみ
21 For thus saith the Lord GOD; How much more when I send my four sore judgments upon Jerusalem, the sword, and the famine, and the noisome beast, and the pestilence, to cut off from it man and beast?
主ヱホバかくいひたまふ然ばわが四箇の嚴しき罰すなはち劍と饑饉と惡き獸と疫病をヱルサレムにおくりて人と畜をそこより絕さらんとする時は如何にぞや
22 Yet, behold, therein shall be left a remnant that shall be brought forth, [both] sons and daughters: behold, they shall come forth unto you, and ye shall see their way and their doings: and ye shall be comforted concerning the evil that I have brought upon Jerusalem, [even] concerning all that I have brought upon it.
其中に逃れて遺るところの男子女子あり彼等携へ去らるべし彼ら出ゆきて汝等の所にいたらん汝らかれらの行爲と擧動を見ば吾がヱルサレムに災をくだせし事につきて心をやすむるにいたるべし
23 And they shall comfort you, when ye see their ways and their doings: and ye shall know that I have not done without cause all that I have done in it, saith the Lord GOD.
汝ら彼らの行爲と擧動を見ばこれがためにその心をやすむるにいたりわがこれに爲たる事は皆故なくして爲たるにあらざるなるをしるにいたらん主ヱホバこれを言ふ
