Isaiah 8
1 The LORD said to me, “Take a large tablet, and write on it with a man’s pen, ‘For Maher Shalal Hash Baz’;
ヱホバ我にいひたまひけるは一の大なる牌をとり そのうへに平常の文字にてマヘル シャラル ハシ バズと録せ
2 and I will take for myself faithful witnesses to testify: Uriah the priest, and Zechariah the son of Jeberechiah.”
われ信實の證者なる祭司ウリヤおよびエベレキヤの子ゼカリヤをもてその證をなさしむ
3 I went to the prophetess, and she conceived, and bore a son. Then the LORD said to me, “Call his name ‘Maher Shalal Hash Baz.’
われ預言者の妻にちかづきしとき彼はらみて子をうみければ ヱホバ我にいひたまはく その名をマヘル シャラル ハシ バズと稱へよ
4 For before the child knows how to say, ‘My father’ and ‘My mother,’ the riches of Damascus and the plunder of Samaria will be carried away by the king of Assyria.”
そはこの子いまだ我が父わが母とよぶことを知らざるうちに ダマスコの富とサマリヤの財寳はうばはれてアツスリヤ王のまへに到るべければなり
5 The LORD spoke to me yet again, saying,
ヱホバまた重て我につげたまへり云く
6 “Because this people has refused the waters of Shiloah that go softly, and rejoice in Rezin and Remaliah’s son;
この民はゆるやかに流るるシロアの水をすててレヂンとレマリヤの子とをよろこぶ
7 now therefore, behold, the Lord brings upon them the mighty flood waters of the River: the king of Assyria and all his glory. It will come up over all its channels, and go over all its banks.
此によりて主はいきほひ猛くみなぎりわたる大河の水をかれらのうへに堰入たまはん 是はアツスリヤ王とそのもろもろの威勢とにして 百の支流にはびこり もろもろの岸をこえ
8 It will sweep onward into Judah. It will overflow and pass through. It will reach even to the neck. The stretching out of its wings will fill the width of your land, O Immanuel.
ユダにながれいり 溢れひろごりてその項にまで及ばん インマヌエルよ そののぶる翼はあまねくなんぢの地にみちわたらん
9 Make an uproar, you peoples, and be broken in pieces! Listen, all you from far countries: dress for battle, and be shattered! Dress for battle, and be shattered!
もろもろの民よ さばめき騒げなんぢら摧かるべし 遠きくにぐにの者よ きけ 腰におびせよ 汝等くだかるべし 腰に帶せよ なんぢら摧かるべし
10 Take counsel together, and it will be brought to nothing; speak the word, and it will not stand, for God is with us.”
なんぢら互にはかれ つひに徒勞ならん なんぢら言をいだせ遂におこなはれじ そは神われらとともに在せばなり
11 For the LORD spoke this to me with a strong hand, and instructed me not to walk in the way of this people, saying,
ヱホバつよき手をもて此如われに示し この民の路にあゆまざらんことを我にさとして言給はく
12 “Don’t call a conspiracy all that this people call a conspiracy. Don’t fear their threats or be terrorised.
此民のすべて叛逆ととなふるところの者をなんぢら叛逆ととなふるなかれ 彼等のおそるるところを汝等おそるるなかれ慴くなかれ
13 The LORD of Hosts is who you must respect as holy. He is the one you must fear. He is the one you must dread.
なんぢらはただ萬軍のヱホバを聖としてこれを畏みこれを恐るべし
14 He will be a sanctuary, but for both houses of Israel, he will be a stumbling stone and a rock that makes them fall. For the people of Jerusalem, he will be a trap and a snare.
然らばヱホバはきよき避所となりたまはん 然どイスラエルの兩の家には躓く石となり妨ぐる磐とならん ヱルサレムの民には網罟となり機濫とならん
15 Many will stumble over it, fall, be broken, be snared, and be captured.”
おほくの人々これによりて蹶きかつ仆れやぶれ 網せられまた捕へらるべし
16 Wrap up the covenant. Seal the law amongst my disciples.
證詞をつかね律法をわが弟子のうちに封べし
17 I will wait for the LORD, who hides his face from the house of Jacob, and I will look for him.
いま面をおほひてヤコブの家をかへりみ給はずといへども 我そのヱホバを待そのヱホバを望みまつらん
18 Behold, I and the children whom the LORD has given me are for signs and for wonders in Israel from the LORD of Hosts, who dwells in Mount Zion.
視よわれとヱホバが我にたまひたる子輩とはイスラエルのうちの豫兆なり奇しき標なり 此はシオンの山にいます萬軍のヱホバの與へたまふ所なり
19 When they tell you, “Consult with those who have familiar spirits and with the wizards, who chirp and who mutter,” shouldn’t a people consult with their God? Should they consult the dead on behalf of the living?
もし人なんぢらにつげて巫女および魔術者のさえづるがごとく細語がごとき者にもとめよといはば民はおのれの神にもとむべきにあらずや いかで活者のために死者にもとむることを爲んといへ
20 Turn to the law and to the covenant! If they don’t speak according to this word, surely there is no morning for them.
ただ律法と證詞とを求むべし 彼等のいふところ此言にかなはずば晨光あらじ
21 They will pass through it, very distressed and hungry. It will happen that when they are hungry, they will worry, and curse their king and their God. They will turn their faces upward,
かれら國をへあるきて苦みうゑん その饑るとき怒をはなち己が王おのが神をさして誼ひかつその面をうへに向ん
22 then look to the earth and see distress, darkness, and the gloom of anguish. They will be driven into thick darkness.
また地をみれば艱難と幽暗とくるしみの闇とあり かれらは昏黑におひやられん
