Ezekiel 24

1 And the word of the LORD came unto me in the ninth year, in the tenth month, in the tenth day of the month, saying:

九年の十月十日にヱホバの言我にのぞみて言ふ

2 'Son of man, write thee the name of the day, even of this selfsame day; this selfsame day the king of Babylon hath invested Jerusalem.

人の子よ汝此日すなはち今日の名を書せバビロンの王今日ヱルサレムを攻をるなり

3 And utter a parable concerning the rebellious house, and say unto them: Thus saith the Lord GOD: Set on the pot, set it on, and also pour water into it;

汝背ける家に譬喩をかたりて之に言へ主ヱホバかく言たまふ釜を居ゑ居ゑてこれに水を斟いれ

4 Gather into it the pieces belonging to it, even every good piece, the thigh, and the shoulder; fill it with the choice bones.

其肉の凡て佳き所を集めて股と肩とを之に入れ佳き骨をこれに充し

5 Take the choice of the flock, and pile also the bones under it; make it boil well, that the bones thereof may also be seethed in the midst of it.

羊の選擇者を取れ亦薪一束を取り下に入れて骨を煮釜を善く煮たて亦その中の骨を煮よ

6 Wherefore thus saith the Lord GOD: Woe to the bloody city, to the pot whose filth is therein, and whose filth is not gone out of it! bring it out piece by piece; no lot is fallen upon it.

是故に主ヱホバかく言ふ禍なるかな血の流るる邑銹のつきたる釜 その銹これを離れざるなり肉を一箇一箇に取いだせ之がために籤を掣べからず

7 For her blood is in the midst of her; she set it upon the bare rock; she poured it not upon the ground, to cover it with dust;

彼の血はその中にあり彼乾ける磐の上にこれを置りこれを土にそそぎて塵に覆はれしめず

8 that it might cause fury to come up, that vengeance might be taken, I have set her blood upon the bare rock, that it should not be covered.

我怒を來らせ仇を復さんがためにその血を乾ける磐の上に置て塵に覆はれざらしめたり

9 Therefore thus saith the Lord GOD: Woe to the bloody city! I also will make the pile great,

是故に主ヱホバかく言ふ禍なるかな血の流るる邑我またその薪の束を大にすべし

10 heaping on the wood, kindling the fire, that the flesh may be consumed; and preparing the mixture, that the bones also may be burned;

薪を積かさね火を燃し肉を善く煮てこれを煮つくしその骨をも燒しむべし

11 then will I set it empty upon the coals thereof, that it may be hot, and the bottom thereof may burn, and that the impurity of it may be molten in it, that the filth of it may be consumed.

而して釜を空にして炭火の上に置きその銅をして熱くなりて燒しめ其汚穢をして中に鎔しめその銹を去しむべし

12 It hath wearied itself with toil; yet its great filth goeth not forth out of it, yea, its noisome filth.

旣に手を盡したれどもその大なる銹さらざればその銹を火に投棄べし

13 Because of thy filthy lewdness, because I have purged thee and thou wast not purged, thou shalt not be purged from thy filthiness any more, till I have satisfied My fury upon thee.

汝の汚穢の中に淫行あり我汝を淨めんとしたれども汝淨まらざりしに因てわが怒を汝に洩しつくすまでは汝その汚穢をはなれて淨まることあらじ

14 I the LORD have spoken it; it shall come to pass, and I will do it; I will not go back, neither will I spare, neither will I repent; according to thy ways, and according to thy doings, shall they judge thee, saith the Lord GOD.'

我ヱホバこれを言り是至る我これを爲べし止ず惜まず悔ざるなり汝の道にしたがひ汝の行爲にしたがひて彼ら汝を鞫かん主ヱホバこれを言ふ

15 Also the word of the LORD came unto me, saying:

ヱホバの言われに臨みて言ふ

16 'Son of man, behold, I take away from thee the desire of thine eyes with a stroke; yet neither shalt thou make lamentation nor weep, neither shall thy tears run down.

人の子よ我頓死をもて汝の目の喜ぶ者を取去ん汝哀かず泣ず涙をながすべからず

17 Sigh in silence; make no mourning for the dead, bind thy headtire upon thee, and put thy shoes upon thy feet, and cover not thine upper lip, and eat not the bread of men.'

聲をたてずして哀け死人のために哀哭をなすなかれ冠物を戴き足に鞋を穿べし鬚を掩ふなかれ人のおくれる食物を食ふべからず

18 So I spoke unto the people in the morning, and at even my wife died; and I did in the morning as I was commanded.

朝に我人々に語りしが夕にわが妻死ねり明朝におよびて我命ぜられしごとくなせり

19 And the people said unto me: 'Wilt thou not tell us what these things are to us, that thou doest so?'

茲に人々我に言けるは此汝がなすところの事は何の意なるや我らに告ざるや

20 Then I said unto them: 'The word of the LORD came unto me, saying:

我かれらに言けるはヱホバの言我にのぞみて言ふ

21 Speak unto the house of Israel: Thus saith the Lord GOD: Behold, I will profane My sanctuary, the pride of your power, the desire of your eyes, and the longing of your soul; and your sons and your daughters whom ye have left behind shall fall by the sword.

イスラエルの家にいふべし主ヱホバかく言ふ視よ我汝らの勢力の榮汝らの目の喜愛汝らの心の望なるわが聖所を汚さん汝らが遺すところの子女等は劍に仆れん

22 And ye shall do as I have done: ye shall not cover your upper lips, nor eat the bread of men;

汝らもわが爲るごとくなし鬚を覆はず人のおくれる食物を食はず

23 and your tires shall be upon your heads, and your shoes upon your feet; ye shall not make lamentation nor weep; but ye shall pine away in your iniquities, and moan one toward another.

首に冠物を戴き足に履を穿き哀かず泣ずその罪の中に痩衰へて互に呻かん

24 Thus shall Ezekiel be unto you a sign; according to all that he hath done shall ye do; when this cometh, then shall ye know that I am the Lord GOD.

斯エゼキエル汝らに兆とならん彼がなしたるごとく汝ら爲ん是事の至らん時に汝ら我の主ヱホバなるを知べし

25 And thou, son of man, shall it not be in the day when I take from them their stronghold, the joy of their glory, the desire of their eyes, and the yearning of their soul, their sons and their daughters,

人の子よわが彼らの力かれらの樂むところの榮その目の喜愛その心の望その子女を取去る日

26 that in that day he that escapeth shall come unto thee, to cause thee to hear it with thine ears?

その日に逃亡者汝の許に來り汝の耳に告ることあらん

27 In that day shall thy mouth be opened together with him that is escaped, and thou shalt speak, and be no more dumb; so shalt thou be a sign unto them; and they shall know that I am the LORD.'

その日に汝逃亡者にむかひて口を啓き語りて再び默せざらん斯汝かれらに兆となるべし彼らは遂に我のヱホバなるを知ん
