Hosea 7
1 When I would have healed Israel, then the iniquity of Ephraim was discovered, and the wickedness of Samaria: for they commit falsehood; and the thief cometh in, and the troop of robbers plunder outside.
われイスラエルを醫さんときエフライムの愆とサマリヤのあしきわざと露るかれらは詐詭をおこなひ内には偸盗いるあり外には山賊のむれ掠めさるあり かれら心にわがその一切の惡をしたためたることを思はず今その行爲はかれらを囲みふさぎて皆わが目前にあり
2 And they consider not in their hearts that I remember all their wickedness: now their own doings have beset them on every side; they are before my face.
3 They make the king glad with their wickedness, and the princes with their lies.
かれらはその惡をもて王を悦ばせその詐詭をもてもろもろの牧伯を悦ばせり
4 They are all adulterers, as an oven heated by the baker, who ceaseth from raising after he hath kneaded the dough, until it is leavened.
かれらはみな姦淫をおこなふ者にしてパンを作るものに焼るる爐のごとし揑粉をこねてその発酵ときまでしばらく火をおこすことをせざるのみなり
5 In the day of our king the princes have made him sick with bottles of wine; he stretched out his hand with scorners.
われらの王の目にもろもろの牧伯は洒の熱によりて疾し王は嘲るものとともに手を伸ぶ
6 For they have made ready their heart like an oven, while they lie in wait: their baker sleepeth all the night; in the morning it burneth as a flaming fire.
かれら伏伺するほどに心を爐のごとくして備をなすそのパンを焼くものは終夜ねむりにつき朝におよべばまた焔のごとく燃ゆ
7 They are all hot as an oven, and have devoured their judges; all their kings are fallen: there is none among them that calleth to me.
かれらはみな爐のごとくに熱してその審士をやくそのもろもろの王はみな仆るかれらの中には我をよぶもの一人だになし
8 Ephraim, he hath mixed himself among the people; Ephraim is a cake not turned.
エフライムは異邦人にいりまじるエフライムはかへさざる餹餅となれり
9 Strangers have devoured his strength, and he knoweth it not: yea, gray hairs are here and there upon him, yet he knoweth not.
かれは他邦人らにその力をのまるれども之をしらず白髪その身に雑り生れどもこれをさとらず
10 And the pride of Israel testifieth to his face: and they do not return to the LORD their God, nor seek him for all this.
イスラエルの驕傲はその面にむかひて證をなすかれらは此もろもろの事あれどもその神ヱホバに歸ることをせず又もとむることをせざるなり
11 Ephraim also is like a silly dove without heart: they call to Egypt, they go to Assyria.
エフライムは智慧なくして愚なる鴿のごとし彼等はエジプトにむかひて呼求めまたアツスリヤに往く
12 When they shall go, I will spread my net upon them; I will bring them down as the fowls of the heaven; I will chastise them, as their congregation hath heard.
我かれらの往ときわが網をその上にはりて天空の鳥のごとくに引堕し前にその公会に告しごとくかれらを懲しめん
13 Woe to them! for they have fled from me: destruction to them! because they have transgressed against me: though I have redeemed them, yet they have spoken lies against me.
禍なるかなかれらは我をはなれて迷ひいでたり敗壊かれらにきたらんかれらは我にむかひて罪ををかしたり我かれらを贖はんとおもへどもかれら我にさからひて謊言をいへり
14 And they have not cried to me with their heart, when they wailed upon their beds: they assemble themselves for grain and wine, and they rebel against me.
かれら誠心をもて我をよばず唯牀にありて哀號べりかれらは穀物とあたらしき酒のゆゑをもて相集りかつわれに逆らふ
15 Though I have bound and strengthened their arms, yet do they imagine mischief against me.
我かれらを教へその腕をつよくせしかども披らはわれにもとりて惡きことを謀る
16 They return, but not to the most High: they are like a deceitful bow: their princes shall fall by the sword for the rage of their tongue: this shall be their derision in the land of Egypt.
かれらは歸るされども至高者にかへらず彼らはたのみがたき弓のごとし彼らのもろもろの牧伯はその舌のあらき言によりて劍にたふれん彼らは之がためにエジプトの國にて嘲笑をうくべし
