エゼキエル書 24

1 九年の十月十日にヱホバの言我にのぞみて言ふ

Again, in the ninth year, in the tenth month, in the tenth day of the month, the word of YHWH came to me, saying,

2 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

"Son of man, write the name of the day, even of this same day: the king of Babylon drew close to Jerusalem this same day.

3 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

Utter a parable to the rebellious house, and tell them, 'Thus says the Lord YHWH, "Set on the caldron, set it on, and also pour water into it:

4 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

gather its pieces into it, even every good piece, the thigh, and the shoulder; fill it with the choice bones.

5 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

Take the choice of the flock, and also a pile of wood for the bones under the caldron; make it boil well; yes, let its bones be boiled in its midst."'

6 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

"Therefore thus says YHWH: 'Woe to the bloody city, to the caldron whose rust is in it, and whose rust is not gone out of it. Take out of it piece after piece; No lot is fallen on it.

7 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

For her blood is in the midst of her; she set it on the bare rock; she didn't pour it on the ground, to cover it with dust.

8 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

That it may cause wrath to come up to take vengeance, I have set her blood on the bare rock, that it should not be covered.'

9 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

"Therefore thus says YHWH: 'Woe to the bloody city. I also will make the pile great.

10 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

Pile on the wood, make the fire hot, boil the meat well, and mix in the spices, and let the bones be burned up.

11 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

Then set it empty on its coals, that it may be hot, and its bronze may burn, and that its filthiness may be molten in it, that its rust may be consumed.

12 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

She has wearied herself with toil; yet her great rust doesn't go forth out of her; her rust doesn't go forth by fire.

13 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

In your filthiness is lewdness: because I have cleansed you and you weren't cleansed, you shall not be cleansed from your filthiness any more, until I have caused my wrath toward you to rest.

14 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

I, YHWH, have spoken it: it shall happen, and I will do it: I will not go back, neither will I spare, neither will I repent; according to your ways and according to your deeds I will judge you,' says YHWH."

15 ヱホバの言われに臨みて言ふ

Also the word of YHWH came to me, saying,

16 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

"Son of man, look, I will take away from you the desire of your eyes with a stroke: yet you shall neither mourn nor weep, neither shall your tears run down.

17 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

Sigh, but not aloud, make no mourning for the dead; bind your headdress on you, and put your shoes on your feet, and do not cover your lips, and do not eat men's bread."

18 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

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

19 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

The people said to me, "Won't you tell us what these things are to us, that you do so?"

20 我かれらに言けるはヱホバの言我にのぞみて言ふ

Then I said to them, "The word of YHWH came to me, saying,

21 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

'Speak to the house of Israel, "Thus says YHWH: Look, I will profane my sanctuary, the pride of your power, the desire of your eyes, and that which your soul pities; and your sons and your daughters whom you have left behind shall fall by the sword.

22 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

You shall do as I have done: you shall not cover your lips, nor eat the bread of men.

23 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

Your turbans shall be on your heads, and your shoes on your feet: you shall not mourn nor weep; but you shall pine away in your iniquities, and moan one toward another.

24 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

Thus Ezekiel shall be a sign to you; according to all that he has done, you will do. When this comes, then you will know that I am YHWH."'"

25 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

"You, son of man, shall it not be in the day when I take from them their strength, the joy of their glory, the desire of their eyes, and that whereupon they set their heart, their sons and their daughters,

26 その日に逃亡者汝の許に來り汝の耳に告ることあらん

that in that day he who escapes shall come to you, to cause you to hear it with your ears?

27 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

In that day your mouth will be opened to him who has escaped, and you shall speak, and be no more mute: so you will be a sign to them; and they shall know that I am YHWH."
