ゼカリヤ書 2
1 茲に我目を擧て觀しに一箇の人量繩を手に執居ければ
I lifted up my eyes, and saw, and look, a man with a measuring line in his hand.
2 汝は何處へ往くやと問しにヱルサレムを量りてその廣と長の幾何なるを觀んとすと我に答ふ
Then I asked, "Where are you going?" He said to me, "To measure Jerusalem, to see what is its breadth and what is its length."
3 時に我に語ふ天の使出行たりしが又一箇の天の使出きたりて之に會ひ
Look, the angel who talked with me went forth, and another angel went out to meet him,
4 之に言けるは走ゆきてこの少き人に告て言へヱルサレムはその中に人と畜と饒なるによりて野原のごとくに廣く亘るべし
and said to him, "Run, speak to this young man, saying, 'Jerusalem will be inhabited as villages without walls, because of the multitude of men and livestock in it.
5 ヱホバ言たまふ我その四周にて火の垣となりその中にて榮光とならん
For I,' says the LORD, 'will be to her a wall of fire around it, and I will be the glory in the midst of her.
6 ヱホバいひたまふ來れ來れ北の地より逃きたれ我なんぢらを四方の天風のごとくに行わたらしむればなりヱホバこれを言ふ
Come. Come. Flee from the land of the north,' says the LORD; 'for I have spread you abroad as the four winds of the sky,' says the LORD.
7 來れバビロンの女子とともに居るシオンよ遁れ來れ
'Come, Zion. Escape, you who dwell with the daughter of Babylon.'
8 萬軍のヱホバかく言たまふヱホバ汝等を擄へゆきし國々へ榮光のために我儕を遣したまふ汝らを打つ者は彼の目の珠を打なればなり
For thus says the LORD of hosts: 'For honor he has sent me to the nations which plundered you; for he who touches you touches the apple of my eye.
9 即ち我手をかれらの上に搖ん彼らは己に事へし者の俘虜となるべし汝らは萬軍のヱホバの我を遣したまへるなるを知ん
For, look, I will shake my hand over them, and they will be a spoil to those who served them; and you will know that the LORD of hosts has sent me.
10 ヱホバ言たまふシオンの女子よ喜び樂め我きたりて汝の中に住ばなり
Sing and rejoice, daughter of Zion; for, look, I come, and I will dwell in the midst of you,' says the LORD.
11 その日には許多の民ヱホバに附て我民とならん我なんぢの中に住べし汝は萬軍のヱホバの我を遣したまへるなるを知ん
Many nations shall join themselves to the LORD in that day, and shall be my people; and I will dwell in the midst of you, and you shall know that the LORD of hosts has sent me to you.
12 ヱホバ聖地の中にてユダを取て己の分となし再びヱルサレムを簡びたまふべし
The LORD will inherit Judah as his portion in the holy land, and will again choose Jerusalem.
13 ヱホバ起てその聖住所よりいでたまへば凡そ血肉ある者ヱホバの前に粛然たれ
Be silent, all flesh, before the LORD; for he has roused himself from his holy habitation."
