< エゼキエル書 47 >

1 斯てかれ我を室の門に携へかへりしが室の閾の下より水の東の方に流れ出るあり室の面は東にむかひをりその水下より出で室の右の方よりして壇の南より流れ下る
He brought me back to the door of the temple; and behold, waters flowed out from under the threshold of the temple eastward, for the front of the temple faced toward the east. The waters came down from underneath, from the right side of the temple, on the south of the altar.
2 彼北の門の路より我を携へいだして外面をまはらしめ東にむかふ外の門にいたらしむるに水門の右の方より流れ出づ
Then he brought me out by the way of the gate northward, and led me around by the way outside to the outer gate, by the way of the gate that looks toward the east. Behold, waters ran out on the right side.
3 その人東に進み手に度繩を持て一千キユビトを度り我に水をわたらしむるに水踝骨にまでおよぶ
When the man went out eastward with the line in his hand, he measured one thousand cubits, and he caused me to pass through the waters, waters that were to the ankles.
4 彼また一千を度り我を渉らしむるに水膝にまでおよぶ而してまた一千を度り我を渉らしむるに水腰にまで及ぶ
Again he measured one thousand, and caused me to pass through the waters, waters that were to the knees. Again he measured one thousand, and caused me to pass through waters that were to the waist.
5 彼また一千を度るに早わが渉るあたはざる河となり水高くして泅ぐほどの水となり徒渉すべからざる河とはなりぬ
Afterward he measured one thousand; and it was a river that I could not pass through, for the waters had risen, waters to swim in, a river that could not be walked through.
6 彼われに言けるは人の子よ汝これを見とめたるやと乃ち河の岸に沿て我を將かへれり
He said to me, “Son of man, have you seen this?” Then he brought me and caused me to return to the bank of the river.
7 我歸るに河の岸の此方彼方に甚だ衆多の樹々生ひ立るあり
Now when I had returned, behold, on the bank of the river were very many trees on the one side and on the other.
8 彼われに言ふこの水東の境に流れゆきアラバにおち下りて海に入る是海に入ればその水すなはち醫ゆ
Then he said to me, “These waters flow out toward the eastern region and will go down into the Arabah. Then they will go toward the sea and flow into the sea which will be made to flow out; and the waters will be healed.
9 凡そ此河の往ところには諸の動くところの生物みな生ん又甚だ衆多の魚あるべし此水到るところにて醫すことをなせばなり此河のいたる處にては物みな生べきなり
It will happen that every living creature which swarms, in every place where the rivers come, will live. Then there will be a very great multitude of fish; for these waters have come there, and the waters of the sea will be healed, and everything will live wherever the river comes.
10 漁者その傍に立んエンゲデよりエネグライムまでは網を張る處となるべしその魚はその類にしたがひて大海の魚のごとく甚だ多からん
It will happen that fishermen will stand by it. From En Gedi even to En Eglaim will be a place for the spreading of nets. Their fish will be after their kinds, as the fish of the great sea, exceedingly many.
11 但しその澤地と濕地とは愈ることあらずして鹽地となりをるべし
But its swamps and marshes will not be healed. They will be given up to salt.
12 河の傍その岸の此旁彼旁に食はるる果を結ぶ諸の樹生そだたんその葉は枯ずその果は絕ず月々新しき果をむすぶべし是その水かの聖所より流れいづればなりその果は食となりその葉は藥とならん
By the river banks, on both sides, will grow every tree for food, whose leaf won’t wither, neither will its fruit fail. It will produce new fruit every month, because its waters issue out of the sanctuary. Its fruit will be for food, and its leaf for healing.”
13 主ヱホバかく言たまふ汝らイスラエルの十二の支派の中に地を分ちてその產業となさしむるにはその界を斯さだむべしヨセフは二分を得べきなり
The Lord Yahweh says: “This shall be the border by which you shall divide the land for inheritance according to the twelve tribes of Israel. Joseph shall have two portions.
14 汝ら各々均しく之を獲て產業とすべし是は我が手をあげて汝らの先祖等に與へし者なり斯この地汝らに歸して產業とならん
You shall inherit it, one as well as another; for I swore to give it to your fathers. This land will fall to you for inheritance.
15 地の界は左のごとし北は大海よりヘテロンの路をへてゼダデの方にいたり
“This shall be the border of the land: “On the north side, from the great sea, by the way of Hethlon, to the entrance of Zedad;
16 ハマテ、ベロクにいたりダマスコの界とハマテの界の間なるシブライムにいたりハウランの界なるハザルハテコンにいたる
Hamath, Berothah, Sibraim (which is between the border of Damascus and the border of Hamath), to Hazer Hatticon, which is by the border of Hauran.
17 海よりの界はダマスコの界のハザルエノンにいたる北の方においてはハマテその界たり北の方は是のごとし
The border from the sea shall be Hazar Enon at the border of Damascus; and on the north northward is the border of Hamath. This is the north side.
18 東の方はハウラン、ダマスコ、ギレアデとイスラエルの地との間にヨルダンあり汝らかの界より東の海までを量るべし東の方は斯のごとし
“The east side, between Hauran, Damascus, Gilead, and the land of Israel, shall be the Jordan; from the north border to the east sea you shall measure. This is the east side.
19 南の方はタマルよりメリボテカデシにおよび河に沿て大海にいたる南の方は是のごとし
“The south side southward shall be from Tamar as far as the waters of Meriboth Kadesh, to the brook, to the great sea. This is the south side southward.
20 西の方は大海にしてこの界よりハマテにおよぶ西の方は是のごとし
“The west side shall be the great sea, from the south border as far as opposite the entrance of Hamath. This is the west side.
21 汝らイスラエルの支派にしたがひて此地を汝らの中にわかつべし
“So you shall divide this land to yourselves according to the tribes of Israel.
22 汝ら籤をもて之を汝らの中に分ち又汝らの中にをりて汝らの中に子等を擧けたる異邦人の中に分ちて產業となすべし斯る人は汝らにおけることイスラエルの子孫の中に生れたる本國人のごとし彼らも汝らと共に籤をひきてイスラエルの支派の中に產業を得べし
You shall divide it by lot for an inheritance to you and to the aliens who live among you, who will father children among you. Then they shall be to you as the native-born among the children of Israel. They shall have inheritance with you among the tribes of Israel.
23 異邦人にはその住ところの支派の中にて汝ら之に產業を與ふべし主ヱホバこれを言たまふ
In whatever tribe the stranger lives, there you shall give him his inheritance,” says the Lord Yahweh.
