Jeremiah 42
1 Then all the captaines of the hoste, and Iohanan the sonne of Kareah, and Iezaniah the sonne of Hoshaaiah, and all the people from the least vnto the most came,
茲に軍勢の長たちおよびカレヤの子ヨハナンとホシャヤの子ヱザニヤ並に民の至微者より至大者にいたるまで
2 And saide vnto Ieremiah the Prophete, Heare our prayer, we beseeche thee, and pray for vs vnto the Lord thy God, euen for all this remnant (for we are left, but a fewe of many, as thine eyes doe beholde)
皆預言者ヱレミヤの許に來りて言けるは汝の前に我らの求の受納られんことを願ふ請ふ我ら遺れる者の爲に汝の神ヱホバに祈れ(今汝の目に見がごとく我らは衆多の中の遺れる者にして寡なり)
3 That the Lord thy God may shewe vs the way wherein wee may walke, and the thing that we may doe.
さらば汝の神ヱホバ我らの行むべき途となすべき事を示したまはん
4 Then Ieremiah the Prophet said vnto them, I haue heard you: behold, I will pray vnto ye Lord your God according to your wordes, and whatsoeuer thing the Lord shall answere you, I will declare it vnto you: I will keepe nothing backe from you.
預言者ヱレミヤ彼らに云けるは我汝らに聽り汝らの言に循ひて汝らの神ヱホバに祈らん凡そヱホバが汝らに應へたまふことはわれ隱す所なく汝らに告べし
5 Then they said to Ieremiah, The Lord be a witnesse of trueth, and faith betweene vs, if we doe not, euen according to all things for ye which the Lord thy God shall send thee to vs.
彼らヱレミヤにいひけるは願くはヱホバ我儕の間にありて眞實なる信ずべき證者となりたまへ我らは汝の神ヱホバの汝を遣して我らに告しめたまふ諸の事に遵ひて行ふべし
6 Whether it be good or euill, we will obey the voyce of the Lord God, to whom we sende thee that it may be well with vs, when wee obey the voyce of the Lord our God.
我らは善にまれ惡きにまれ我らが汝を遣すところの我らの神ヱホバの聲に遵はん斯我らの神ヱホバの聲に遵ひてわれら福をうけん
7 And so after ten dayes came the word of the Lord vnto Ieremiah.
十日の後ヱホバの言ヱレミヤにのぞみしかば
8 Then called he Iohanan the sonne of Kareah, and all the captaines of the hoste, which were with him, and all ye people from ye least to the most,
ヱレミヤ、カレヤの子ヨハナンおよび彼と偕に在る軍勢の長たち並に民の至微者より至大者までを悉く招きて
9 And saide vnto them, Thus saith the Lord God of Israel, vnto whom ye sent me to present your prayers before him,
これにいひけるは汝らが我を遣して汝らの祈を献げしめしところのイスラエルの神ヱホバかくいひ給ふ
10 If ye will dwell in this land, then I wil build you, and not destroy you, and I will plant you, and not roote you out: for I repent me of the euill that I haue done vnto you.
汝らもし信に此地に留らばわれ汝らを建てて倒さず汝らを植て拔じそは我汝らに災を降せしを悔ればなり
11 Feare not for the King of Babel, of whom ye are afraide: be not afraid of him, saith the Lord: for I am with you, to saue you, and to deliuer you from his hand,
ヱホバいひたまふ汝らが畏るるところのバビロンの王を畏るる勿れ彼をおそるる勿れわれ汝らとともにありて汝らを救ひ彼の手より汝らを拯ふべし
12 And I will graunt you mercie that he may haue compassion vpon you, and he shall cause you to dwell in your owne land.
われ汝らを恤みまた彼をして汝らを恤ませ汝らを故土に歸らしめん
13 But if ye say, We will not dwell in this land, neither heare the voyce of the Lord your God,
然ど汝らもし我らはこの地に留らじ汝らの神ヱホバの聲に遵はじと言ひ
14 Saying, Nay, but we will goe into the land of Egypt, where we shall see no warre, nor heare the sounde of the trumpet, nor haue hunger of bread, and there will we dwell,
また然りわれらはかの戰爭を見ず箛の聲をきかず食物に乏しからざるエジプトの地にいたりて彼處に住はんといはば
15 (And nowe therefore heare the worde of the Lord, ye remnant of Iudah: thus sayeth the Lord of hostes the God of Israel, If ye set your faces to enter into Egypt, and goe to dwell there)
汝らユダの遺れる者よヱホバの言をきけ萬軍のヱホバ、イスラエルの神かくいひたまふ汝らもし強てエジプトにゆきて彼處に住はば
16 Then the sworde that ye feared, shall take you there in the land of Egypt, and the famine, for the which ye care, shall there hang vpon you in Egypt, and there shall ye die.
汝らが懼るるところの劍エジプトの地にて汝らに臨み汝らが恐るるところの饑饉エジプトにて汝らにおよばん而して汝らは彼處に死べし
17 And all the men that set their faces to enter into Egypt to dwell there, shall die by ye sword, by the famine and by the pestilence, and none of them shall remaine nor escape from the plague, that I will bring vpon them.
凡そエジプトにおもむき至りて彼處に住はんとする人々は劍と饑饉と疫病に死べしその中には我彼らに降さんところの災を脱れて遺る者無るべし
18 For thus saith the Lord of hostes the God of Israel, As mine anger and my wrath hath bene powred foorth vpon the inhabitants of Ierusalem: so shall my wrath be powred foorth vpon you, when ye shall enter into Egypt, and ye shall be a detestation, and an astonishment, and a curse and a reproche, and ye shall see this place no more.
萬軍のヱホバ、イスラエルの神かくいひたまふ我震怒と憤恨のヱルサレムに住る者に注ぎし如くわが憤恨汝らがエジプトにいらん時に汝らに注がん汝らは呪詛となり詫異となり罵詈となり凌辱とならん汝らは再びこの處を見ざるべしと
19 O ye remnant of Iudah, the Lord hath said concerning you, Goe not into Egypt: knowe certeinely that I haue admonished you this day.
ユダの遺れる者よヱホバ汝らにつきていひたまへり汝らエジプトにゆく勿れと汝ら今日わが汝らを警めしことを確に知れ
20 Surely ye dissembled in your hearts When ye sent me vnto the Lord your God, saying, Pray for vs vnto the Lord our God, and declare vnto vs euen according vnto al that the Lord our God shall say, and we will doe it.
汝ら我を汝らの神ヱホバに遣して言へり我らの爲に我らの神ヱホバに祈り我らの神ヱホバの汝に示したまふ事をことごとく我らに告よ我ら之を行はんと斯なんぢら自ら欺けり
21 Therefore I haue this day declared it you, but you haue not obeyed the voyce of the Lord your God, nor any thing for the which he hath sent me vnto you.
われ今日汝らに告たれど汝らは汝らの神ヱホバの聲に遵はず汝らはヱホバが我を遣して命ぜしめたまひし事には都て遵はざりき
22 Nowe therefore, knowe certeinely that ye shall die by the sworde, by the famine, and by the pestilence, in the place whither ye desire to goe and dwell.
然ば汝らはその往て住んとねがふ處にて劍と饑饉と疫病に死ることを今確に知るべし
