< Jeremiah 31 >

1 At that time, saith the LORD, will I be the God of all the families of Israel, and they shall be My people.
ヱホバいひたまふ其時われはイスラエルの諸の族の神となり彼らは我民とならん
2 Thus saith the LORD: The people that were left of the sword have found grace in the wilderness, even Israel, when I go to cause him to rest.
ヱホバかくいひたまふ劍をのがれて遺りし民は曠野の中に恩を獲たりわれ往て彼イスラエルに安息をあたへん
3 'From afar the LORD appeared unto me.' 'Yea, I have loved thee with an everlasting love; therefore with affection have I drawn thee.
遠方よりヱホバ我に顯れていひたまふ我窮なき愛をもて汝を愛せり故にわれたえず汝をめぐむなり
4 Again will I build thee, and thou shalt be built, O virgin of Israel; again shalt thou be adorned with thy tabrets, and shalt go forth in the dances of them that make merry.
イスラエルの童女よわれ復び汝を建ん汝は建らるべし汝ふたたび鼗をもて身を飾り歡樂者の舞にいでん
5 Again shalt thou plant vineyards upon the mountains of Samaria; the planters shall plant, and shall have the use thereof.
汝また葡萄の樹をサマリヤの山に植ん植る者は植てその果を食ふことをえん
6 For there shall be a day, that the watchmen shall call upon the mount Ephraim: arise ye, and let us go up to Zion, unto the LORD our God.'
エフライムの山の上に守望者の立て呼はる日きたらんいはく汝ら起よ我らシオンにのぼりて我儕の神ヱホバにまうでんと
7 For thus saith the LORD: Sing with gladness for Jacob, and shout at the head of the nations; announce ye, praise ye, and say: 'O LORD, save Thy people, The remnant of Israel.'
ヱホバかくいひたまふ汝らヤコブの爲に歡びて呼はり萬國の首なる者のために叫べ汝ら示し且歌ひて言へヱホバよ願くはイスラエルの遺れる者汝の民を救ひたまへと
8 Behold, I will bring them from the north country, and gather them from the uttermost parts of the earth, and with them the blind and the lame, the woman with child and her that travaileth with child together; a great company shall they return hither.
みよ我彼らを北の地よりひきかへり彼らを地の極より集めん彼らの中には瞽者 跛者 孕める婦 子を產みし婦ともに居る彼らは大なる群をなして此處にかへらん
9 They shall come with weeping, and with supplications will I lead them; I will cause them to walk by rivers of waters, in a straight way wherein they shall not stumble; for I am become a father to Israel, and Ephraim is My first-born.
彼ら悲泣來らん我かれらをして祈禱をもて來らしめ直くして蹶かざる途より水の流に歩みいたらしめん我はイスラエルの父にしてエフライムは我長子なればなり
10 Hear the word of the LORD, O ye nations, and declare it in the isles afar off, and say: 'He that scattered Israel doth gather him, and keep him, as a shepherd doth his flock.'
萬國の民よ汝らヱホバの言をきき之を遠き諸島に示していえへイスラエルを散せしものこれを聚め牧者のその群を守るが如く之を守らん
11 For the LORD hath ransomed Jacob, and He redeemeth him from the hand of him that is stronger than he.
すなはちヱホバ、ヤコブを贖ひ彼等よりも強き者の手よりかれを救出したまへり
12 And they shall come and sing in the height of Zion, and shall flow unto the goodness of the LORD, to the corn, and to the wine, and to the oil, and to the young of the flock and of the herd; and their soul shall be as a watered garden, and they shall not pine any more at all.
彼らは來てシオンの頂によばはりヱホバの賜ひし福なる麥と酒と油および若き羊と牛の爲に寄集はんその靈魂は灌ふ園のごとくならん彼らは重て愁ふること無るべし
13 Then shall the virgin rejoice in the dance, and the young men and the old together; for I will turn their mourning into joy, and will comfort them, and make them rejoice from their sorrow.
その時童女は舞てたのしみ壯者と老者もろともに樂しまん我かれらの悲をかへて喜となしかれらの愁をさりてこれを慰さめん
14 And I will satiate the soul of the priests with fatness, and My people shall be satisfied with My goodness, saith the LORD.
われ膏をもて祭司の心を飫しめ我恩をもて我民に滿しめんとヱホバ言たまふ
15 Thus saith the LORD: A voice is heard in Ramah, lamentation, and bitter weeping, Rachel weeping for her children; she refuseth to be comforted for her children, because they are not.
ヱホバかくいひたまふ歎き悲みいたく憂ふる聲ラマに聞ゆラケルその兒子のために歎きその兒子のあらずなりしによりて慰をえず
16 Thus saith the LORD: Refrain thy voice from weeping, and thine eyes from tears; for thy work shall be rewarded, saith the LORD; and they shall come back from the land of the enemy.
ヱホバかくいひ給ふ汝の聲を禁て哭こと勿れ汝の目を禁て涙を流すこと勿れ汝の工に報あるべし彼らは其敵の地より歸らんとヱホバいひたまふ
17 And there is hope for thy future, saith the LORD; and thy children shall return to their own border.
汝の後の日に望あり兒子等その境に歸らんとヱホバいひたまふ
18 I have surely heard Ephraim bemoaning himself: 'Thou hast chastised me, and I was chastised, as a calf untrained; turn thou me, and I shall be turned, for Thou art the LORD my God.
われ固にエフライムのみづから歎くをきけり云く汝は我を懲しめたまふ我は軛に馴ざる犢のごとくに懲治を受たりヱホバよ汝はわが神なれば我を牽轉したまへ然ば我轉るべし
19 Surely after that I was turned, I repented, and after that I was instructed, I smote upon my thigh; I was ashamed, yea, even confounded, because I did bear the reproach of my youth.'
われ轉りし後に悔い敎を承しのちに我髀を撃つ我幼時の羞を身にもてば恥ぢかつ辱しめらるるなりと
20 Is Ephraim a darling son unto Me? Is he a child that is dandled? For as often as I speak of him, I do earnestly remember him still; Therefore My heart yearneth for him, I will surely have compassion upon him, saith the LORD.
ヱホバいひたまふエフライムは我愛するところの子悦ぶところの子ならずや我彼にむかひてかたるごとに彼を念はざるを得ず是をもて我膓かれの爲に痛む我必ず彼を恤むべし
21 Set thee up waymarks, make thee guide-posts; set thy heart toward the high-way, even the way by which thou wentest; Return, O virgin of Israel, return to these thy cities.
汝のために指路號を置き汝のために柱をたてよ汝のゆける道なる大路に心をとめよイスラエルの童女よ歸れこの汝の邑々にかへれよ
22 How long wilt thou turn away coyly, O thou backsliding daughter? For the LORD hath created a new thing in the earth: a woman shall court a man.
違ける女よ汝いつまで流蕩ふやヱホバ新しき事を地に創造らん女は男を抱くべし
23 Thus saith the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel: Yet again shall they use this speech in the land of Judah and in the cities thereof, when I shall turn their captivity: 'The LORD bless thee, O habitation of righteousness, O mountain of holiness.'
萬軍のヱホバ、イスラエルの神かくいひ給ふ我かの俘囚し者を返さん時人々復ユダの地とその邑々に於て此言をいはん義き居所よ聖き山よ願くはヱホバ汝を祝みたまへと
24 And Judah and all the cities thereof shall dwell therein together: the husbandmen, and they that go forth with flocks.
ユダとその諸の邑々に農夫と群を牧ふもの偕に住はん
25 For I have satiated the weary soul, and every pining soul have I replenished.
われ疲れたる靈魂を飫しめすべての憂ふる靈魂をなぐさむるなり
26 Upon this I awaked, and beheld; and my sleep was sweet unto me.
茲にわれ目を醒しみるに我眠は甘かりし
27 Behold, the days come, saith the LORD, that I will sow the house of Israel and the house of Judah with the seed of man, and with the seed of beast.
ヱホバいひたまふ視よ我が人の種と畜の種とをイスラエルの家とユダの家とに播く日いたらん
28 And it shall come to pass, that like as I have watched over them to pluck up and to break down, and to overthrow and to destroy, and to afflict; so will I watch over them to build and to plant, saith the LORD.
我彼らを拔き毀ち覆し滅し難さんとうかがひし如くまた彼らを建て植ゑんとうかがふべしとヱホバいひ給ふ
29 In those days they shall say no more: 'The fathers have eaten sour grapes, and the children's teeth are set on edge.'
その時彼らは父が酸き葡萄を食ひしによりて兒子の齒齪くと再びいはざるべし
30 But every one shall die for his own iniquity; every man that eateth the sour grapes, his teeth shall be set on edge.
人はおのおの自己の惡によりて死なん凡そ酸き葡萄をくらふ人はその齒齪く
31 Behold, the days come, saith the LORD, that I will make a new covenant with the house of Israel, and with the house of Judah;
ヱホバいひたまふみよ我イスラエルの家とユダの家とに新しき契約を立つる日きたらん
32 not according to the covenant that I made with their fathers in the day that I took them by the hand to bring them out of the land of Egypt; forasmuch as they broke My covenant, although I was a lord over them, saith the LORD.
この契約は我彼らの先祖の手をとりてエジプトの地よりこれを導きいだせし日に立しところの如きにあらず我かれらを娶りたれども彼らはその我契約を破れりとヱホバいひたまふ
33 But this is the covenant that I will make with the house of Israel after those days, saith the LORD, I will put My law in their inward parts, and in their heart will I write it; and I will be their God, and they shall be My people;
然どかの日の後に我イスラエルの家に立んところの契約は此なり即ちわれ我律法をかれらの衷におきその心の上に錄さん我は彼らの神となり彼らは我民となるべしとヱホバいひたまふ
34 and they shall teach no more every man his neighbour, and every man his brother, saying: 'Know the LORD'; for they shall all know Me, from the least of them unto the greatest of them, saith the LORD; for I will forgive their iniquity, and their sin will I remember no more.
人おのおの其隣とその兄弟に敎へて汝ヱホバを識と復いはじそは小より大にいたるまで悉く我をしるべければなりとヱホバいひたまふ我彼らの不義を赦しその罪をまた思はざるべし
35 Thus saith the LORD, Who giveth the sun for a light by day, and the ordinances of the moon and of the stars for a light by night, who stirreth up the sea, that the waves thereof roar, the LORD of hosts is His name:
ヱホバかく言すなはち是日をあたへて晝の光となし月と星をさだめて夜の光となし海を激してその濤を鳴しむる者その名は萬軍のヱホバと言なり
36 If these ordinances depart from before Me, saith the LORD, then the seed of Israel also shall cease from being a nation before Me for ever.
ヱホバいひたまふもし此等の規律我前に廢らばイスラエルの子孫も我前に廢りて永遠も民たることを得ざるべし
37 Thus saith the LORD: If heaven above can be measured, and the foundations of the earth searched out beneath, then will I also cast off all the seed of Israel for all that they have done, saith the LORD.
ヱホバかくいひたまふ若し上の天量ることを得下の地の基探ることをえば我またイスラエルのすべての子孫を其もろもろの行のために棄べしヱホバこれをいふ
38 Behold, the days come, saith the LORD, that the city shall be built to the LORD from the tower of Hananel unto the gate of the corner.
ヱホバいひたまふ視よ此邑ハナネルの塔より隅の門までヱホバの爲に建つ日きたらん
39 And the measuring line shall yet go out straight forward unto the hill Gareb, and shall turn about unto Goah.
量繩ふたたび直ちにガレブの岡をこえゴアテの方に轉るべし
40 And the whole valley of the dead bodies, and of the ashes, and all the fields unto the brook Kidron, unto the corner of the horse gate toward the east, shall be holy unto the LORD; it shall not be plucked up, nor thrown down any more for ever.
屍と灰の谷またケデロンの溪にいたるまでと東の方の馬の門の隅にいたるまでの諸の田地皆ヱホバの聖き處となり永遠におよぶまで再び拔れまた覆さるる事なかるべし
