Psalms 22
1 My God, my God, why have you abandoned/deserted me? Why do you stay so far from me, and why do you not hear/help me [RHQ]? Why do you not hear me when I am groaning?
わが神わが神なんぞ我をすてたまふや 何なれば遠くはなれて我をすくはず わが歎きのこゑをきき給はざるか
2 My God, every day I call to you during the daytime and during the night, but you do not answer me, so I am not able to sleep.
ああわが神われ晝よばはれども汝こたへたまはず 夜よばはれどもわれ平安をえず
3 But you are holy. You sit on your throne as king, and [we the people of] Israel praise you [PRS].
然はあれイスラエルの讃美のなかに住たまふものよ汝はきよし
4 Our ancestors trusted in you. [Because] they trusted in you, you rescued them.
われらの列祖はなんぢに依賴めり かれら依賴みたればこれを助けたまへり
5 When they cried out to you, you saved them. They trusted in you, and (they were not disappointed/you [saved them] as you said that you would).
かれら汝をよびて援をえ汝によりたのみて恥をおへることなかりき
6 But [you have not rescued me] [People despise me and consider that I am not a man]; [they think that] I am [as worthless as] a worm! Everyone [HYP] scorns me and despises me.
然はあれどわれは蟲にして人にあらず 世にそしられ民にいやしめらる
7 Everyone who sees me [HYP] makes fun of me. They sneer at me and [insult me by] shaking their heads [at me as though I were an evil man]. They say,
すべてわれを見るものはわれをあざみわらひ 口唇をそらし首をふりていふ
8 “He trusts in Yahweh, so Yahweh should save him! [He says that] Yahweh is very pleased with him; if that is so, Yahweh should rescue him!”
かれはヱホバによりたのめりヱホバ助くべし ヱホバかれを悦びたまふが故にたすくべしと
9 [Why do] you [not] protect me [now as you did] when I was born? I was safe even when I was (nursing/drinking milk from my mother’s breasts).
されど汝はわれを胎内よりいだし給へるものなり わが母のふところにありしとき旣になんぢに依賴ましめたまへり
10 [It was as though] you adopted me right when I was born. You have (been my God/taken care of me) ever since I was born.
我うまれいでしより汝にゆだねられたり わが母われを生しときより汝はわが神なり
11 So, (do not stay far from/stay close to) [LIT] me now because [enemies who will cause me much] trouble are near me, and there is no one [else] who can help me.
われに遠ざかりたまふなかれ 患難ちかづき又すくふものなければなり
12 [My enemies] surround me [like] a herd/group of wild bulls. [Fierce people, like those] strong bulls that graze [on the hills] in Bashan [area], encircle me.
おほくの牡牛われをめぐりバサンの力つよき牡牛われをかこめり
13 [They are like] roaring lions that are attacking the animals that they want to kill [MET] [and eat]; they rush toward me [to kill] me; they [are like lions that] have their mouths open, [ready to tear their victims to pieces] [MET].
かれらは口をあけて我にむかひ物をかきさき吼うだく獅のごとし
14 I am completely exhausted [MET], and all my bones are out of their joints/places. I [no longer expect that God will save me]; [that expectation is gone completely], like wax that has melted away.
われ水のごとくそそぎいだされ わがもろもろの骨ははづれ わが心は蝋のごとくなりて腹のうちに鎔たり
15 My strength is [all dried up] [MET] like a broken piece of a clay jar that has dried [in the sun]. [I am so thirsty that] my tongue sticks to the roof of my mouth. O God, [I think that you are about to let] me die and become dirt!
わが力はかわきて陶器のくだけのごとく わが舌は齶にひたつけり なんぢわれを死の塵にふさせたまへり
16 My enemies [MET] surround me like a pack/group of wild dogs. A group of evil men has encircled me, [ready to attack me]. They have [already] smashed my hands and my feet.
そは犬われをめぐり惡きものの群われをかこみてわが手およびわが足をさしつらぬけり
17 [I am so weak and thin that] my bones can be seen and counted. My enemies stare at me and (gloat/are happy) about [what has happened to] me.
わが骨はことごとく數ふるばかりになりぬ 惡きものの目をとめて我をみる
18 They looked at the clothes that I [was wearing] and gambled to determine which piece each of them would get.
かれらたがひにわが衣をわかち我がしたぎを鬮にす
19 O Yahweh, do not stay far away from me! You who are my [source of] strength, come quickly and help me!
ヱホバよ遠くはなれ居たまふなかれ わが力よねがはくは速きたりてわれを授けたまへ
20 Rescue me from [those who want to kill me with] their swords. Save me from those who are [like wild/fierce] dogs [MET].
わがたましひを劍より助けいだし わが生命を犬のたけきいきほひより脱れしめたまへ
21 Snatch me away from [my enemies who are] like lions whose jaws [are already open, ready to chew me up] Grab me away from [those men who are like] wild oxen [that attack other animals with] their horns [MET]!
われを獅の口また野牛のつのより救ひいだしたまへ なんぢ我にこたへたまへり
22 [But you have saved me, so] I will declare to my fellow [Israelis] how great you [MTY] are. I will praise you among the group of your people gathered [to worship you].
われなんぢの名をわが兄弟にのべつたへ なんぢを會のなかにて讃たたへん
23 You people who have an awesome respect for Yahweh, praise him! All you who are descended from Jacob, honor Yahweh! All you Israeli people, revere him!
ヱホバを懼るるものよヱホバをほめたたへよ ヤコブのもろもろの裔よヱホバをあがめよ イスラエルのもろもろのすゑよヱホバを畏め
24 He does not despise or ignore those who are suffering; he does not hide (his face/himself) from them. He has listened to them when they cried out to him for help.
ヱホバはなやむものの辛苦をかろしめ棄たまはず これに聖顔をおほふことなくしてその叫ぶときにききたまへばなり
25 Yahweh, in the great gathering [of your people], I will praise you for what you have done. In the presence of those who revere you, I will offer [the sacrifices] that I promised.
大なる會のなかにてわが汝をほめたたふるは汝よりいづるなり わが誓ひしことはヱホバをおそるる者のまへにてことごとく償はん
26 The poor people [whom I have invited to the meal] will eat as much as they want. All who come worship Yahweh will praise him. I pray that [God will enable] you all to live a long and happy life!
謙遜者はくらひて飽ことをえ ヱホバをたづねもとむるものはヱホバをほめたたへん 願くはなんぢらの心とこしへに生んことを
27 I pray that [people in all nations, even] in the remote areas, will think about Yahweh and turn to him, and that people from all the clans in the world will bow down before him.
地のはては皆おもひいだしてヱホバに歸りもろもろの國の族はみな前にふしをがむべし
28 Because Yahweh is the king! He rules all the nations.
國はヱホバのものなればなり ヱホバはもろもろの國人をすべをさめたまふ
29 I desire that all the rich people on the earth will bow before him. Some day they will die, but I want them to prostrate themselves on the ground in his presence [before they die].
地のこえたるものは皆くらひてヱホバををがみ塵にくだるものと己がたましひを存ふること能はざるものと皆そのみまへに拝跪かん
30 People (in the future generations/who have not been born yet) will also serve Yahweh. Our descendants will be told about what Yahweh [has done].
たみの裔のうちにヱホバにつかる者あらん 主のことは代々にかたりつたへらるべし
31 People who are not yet born, [who will live in future years], will be told how Yahweh rescued his people. People will tell them, “Yahweh did it!”
かれら來りて此はヱホバの行爲なりとてその義を後にうまるる民にのべつたへん
