< Daniel 9 >

1 In the first year of Darius, the son of Ahasuerus, of the seed of the Medes, who was made king over the kingdom of the Chaldaeans;
メデア人アハシユエロスの子ダリヨスがカルデヤ人の王とせられしその元年
2 In the first year of his rule, I, Daniel, saw clearly from the books the number of years given by the word of the Lord to the prophet Jeremiah, in which the making waste of Jerusalem was to be complete, that is, seventy years.
すなはちその世の元年に我ダニエル、ヱホバの言の預言者ヱレミヤにのぞみて告たるその年の數を書によりて暁れり即ちその言にヱルサレムは荒て七十年を經んとあり
3 And turning my face to the Lord God, I gave myself up to prayer, requesting his grace, going without food, in haircloth and dust.
是にかいて我面を主ヱホバに向け断食をなし麻の衣を着灰を蒙り祈りかつ願ひて求むることをせり
4 And I made prayer to the Lord my God, putting our sins before him, and said, O Lord, the great God, greatly to be feared. keeping your agreement and mercy with those who have love for you and do your orders;
即ち我わが神ヱホバに祷り懺悔して言り嗚呼大にして畏るべき神なる主自己を愛し自己の誠命を守る者のために契約を保ち之に恩恵を施したまふ者よ
5 We are sinners, acting wrongly and doing evil; we have gone against you, turning away from your orders and from your laws:
我等は罪を犯し悖れる事を爲し惡を行ひ叛逆を爲して汝の誠命と律法を離れたり
6 We have not given ear to your servants the prophets, who said words in your name to our kings and our rulers and our fathers and all the people of the land.
我等はまた汝の僕なる預言者等が汝の名をもて我らの王等君等先祖等および全國の民に告たる所に聴したがはざりしなり
7 O Lord, righteousness is yours, but shame is on us, even to this day; and on the men of Judah and the people of Jerusalem, and on all Israel, those who are near and those who are far off, in all the countries where you have sent them because of the sin which they have done against you.
主よ公義は汝に歸し羞辱は我らに歸せりその状今日のごとし即ちユダの人々ヱルサレムの居民およびイスラエルの全家の者は近き者も遠き者も皆汝の逐やりたまひし諸の國々にて羞辱を蒙れり是は彼らが汝に背きて獲たる罪によりて然るなり
8 O Lord, shame is on us, on our kings and our rulers and our fathers, because of our sin against you.
主よ羞辱は我儕に歸し我らの王等君等および先祖等に歸す是は我儕なんぢに向ひて罪を犯したればなり
9 With the Lord our God are mercies and forgiveness, for we have gone against him;
憐憫と赦宥は主たる我らの神の裏にあり其は我らこれに叛きたればなり
10 And have not given ear to the voice of the Lord our God to go in the way of his laws which he put before us by the mouth of his servants the prophets.
我らはまた我らの神ヱホバの言に遵はずヱホバがその僕なる預言者等によりて我らの前に設けたまひし律法を行はざりしなり
11 And all Israel have been sinners against your law, turning away so as not to give ear to your voice: and the curse has been let loose on us, and the oath recorded in the law of Moses, the servant of God, for we have done evil against him.
抑イスラエルの人は皆汝の律法を犯し離れさりて汝の言に遵はざりき是をもて神の僕モーセの律法に記したる呪詛と誓詞我らの上に斟ぎかかれり是は我らこれに罪を獲たればなり
12 And he has given effect to his words which he said against us and against those who were our judges, by sending a great evil on us: for under all heaven there has not been done what has been done to Jerusalem.
即ち神は大なる災害を我らに蒙らせたまひてその前に我らと我らを鞫ける士師とにむかひて宣ひし言を行ひとげたまへりかのエルサレムに臨みたる事の如きは普天の下に未だ曾て有ざりしなり
13 As it was recorded in the law of Moses, all this evil has come on us: but we have made no prayer for grace from the Lord our God that we might be turned from our evil doings and come to true wisdom.
モーセの律法に記したる如くにこの災害すべて我らに臨みしかども我らはその神ヱホバの面を和めんとも爲ずその惡を離れて汝の眞理を暁らんとも爲ざりき
14 So the Lord has been watching over this evil and has made it come on us: for the Lord our God is upright in all his acts which he has done, and we have not given ear to his voice.
是をもてヱホバ心にかけて災害を我らに降したまへり我らの神ヱホバは何事をなしたまふも凡て公義いますなり然るに我らはその言に遵はざりき
15 And now, O Lord our God, who took your people out of the land of Egypt with a strong hand and made a great name for yourself even to this day; we are sinners, we have done evil.
主たる我らの神よ汝は強き手をもて汝の民をエジプトの地より導き出して今日のごとく汝の名を揚たまふ我らは罪を犯し惡き事を行へり
16 O Lord, because of your righteousness, let your wrath and your passion be turned away from your town Jerusalem, your holy mountain: because, through our sins and the evil-doing of our fathers, Jerusalem and your people have become a cause of shame to all who are round about us.
主よ順くは汝が是まで公義き御行爲を爲たまひし如く汝の邑ヱルサレム汝の聖山より汝の忿怒と憤恨を取離し給へ其は我らの罪と我らの先祖の惡のためにヱルサレムと汝の民は我らの周圍の者の笑柄となりたればなり
17 And now, give ear, O our God, to the prayer of your servant and to his request for grace, and let your face be shining on your holy place which is made waste, because of your servants, O Lord.
然ば我らの神よ僕の祷と願を聴たまへ汝は主にいませばかの荒をる汝の聖所に汝の面を耀かせたまへ
18 O my God, let your ear be turned and give hearing; let your eyes be open and see how we have been made waste and the town which is named by your name: for we are not offering our prayers before you because of our righteousness, but because of your great mercies.
我神よ耳を傾けて聴たまへ目を啓きて我らの荒蕪たる状を観汝の名をもて稱へらるる邑を観たまへ我らが汝の前に祈祷をたてまつるは自己の公義によるに非ず唯なんぢの大なる憐憫によるなり
19 O Lord, give ear; O Lord, have forgiveness; O Lord, take note and do; let there be no more waiting; for the honour of your name, O my God, because your town and your people are named by your name.
主よ聴いれたまへ主よ赦したまへ主よ聴いれて行ひたまへこの事を遅くしたまふなかれわが神よ汝みづからのために之をなしたまへ其は汝の邑と汝の民は汝の名をもて稱へらるればなり
20 And while I was still saying these words in prayer, and putting my sins and the sins of my people Israel before the Lord, and requesting grace from the Lord my God for the holy mountain of my God;
我かく言て祈りかつわが罪とわが民イスラエルの罪を懺悔し我神の聖山の事につきてわが神ヱホバのまへに願をたてまつりをる時
21 Even while I was still in prayer, the man Gabriel, whom I had seen in the vision at first when my weariness was great, put his hand on me about the time of the evening offering.
即ち我祈祷の言をのべをる時我が初に異象の中に見たるかの人ガブリエル迅速に飛て晩の祭物を献ぐる頃我許に達し
22 And teaching me and talking to me he said, O Daniel, I have come now to give you wisdom.
我に告げ我に語りて言けるはダニエルよ今我なんぢを教へて了解を得せしめんとて出きたれり
23 At the first word of your prayer a word went out, and I have come to give you knowledge; for you are a man dearly loved: so give thought to the word and let the vision be clear to you.
汝が祈祷を始むるに方りて我言を受たれば之を汝に示さんとて來れり汝は大に愛せらるる者なり此言を了りその現れたる事の義を暁れ
24 Seventy weeks have been fixed for your people and your holy town, to let wrongdoing be complete and sin come to its full limit, and for the clearing away of evil-doing and the coming in of eternal righteousness: so that the vision and the word of the prophet may be stamped as true, and to put the holy oil on a most holy place.
汝の民と汝の聖邑のために七十週を定めおかる而して惡を抑へ罪を封じ愆を贖ひ永遠の義を携へ入り異象と預言を封じ至る聖者に膏を潅がん
25 Have then the certain knowledge that from the going out of the word for the building again of Jerusalem till the coming of a prince, on whom the holy oil has been put, will be seven weeks: in sixty-two weeks its building will be complete, with square and earthwork.
汝暁り知べしヱルサレムを建なほせといふ命令の出づるよりメッシヤたる君の起るまでに七週と六十二週ありその街と石垣とは擾乱の間に建なほされん
26 And at the end of the times, even after the sixty-two weeks, one on whom the holy oil has been put will be cut off and have no...; and the town and the holy place will be made waste together with a prince; and the end will come with an overflowing of waters, and even to the end there will be war; the making waste which has been fixed.
その六十二週の後にメッシャ絶れん但し是は自己のために非ざるなりまた一人の君の民きたりて邑と聖所とを毀たんその終は洪水に由れる如くなるべし戦争の終るまでに荒蕪すでに極る
27 And a strong order will be sent out against the great number for one week; and so for half of the week the offering and the meal offering will come to an end; and in its place will be an unclean thing causing fear; till the destruction which has been fixed is let loose on him who has made waste.
彼一週の間衆多の者と固く契約を結ばん而して彼その週の半に犠牲と供物を廃せんまた残暴可惡者羽翼の上に立たん斯てつひにその定まれる災害残暴るる者の上に斟ぎくだらん
