< エゼキエル書 38 >

1 ヱホバの言我にのぞみて言ふ
The word of the LORD came to me, saying,
2 人の子よロシ、メセクおよびトバルの君たるマゴグの地の王ゴグに汝の面をむけ之にむかひて預言し
"Son of man, set your face toward Gog, of the land of Magog, the chief prince of Meshech and Tubal, and prophesy against him,
3 言べし主ヱホバかく言たまふロシ、メセク、トバルの君ゴグよ視よ我なんぢを罰せん
and say, 'Thus says the LORD: "Look, I am against you, Gog, chief prince of Meshech and Tubal:
4 我汝をひきもどし汝の腮に鉤をほどこして汝および汝の諸の軍勢と馬とその騎者を曳いだすべし是みな其服粧に美を極め大楯小楯をもち凡て劍を執る者にして大軍なり
and I will turn you around, and put hooks into your jaws, and I will bring you out, with all your army, horses and horsemen, all of them clothed in full armor, a great company with buckler and shield, all of them armed with swords;
5 ペルシヤ、エテオピアおよびフテこれとともにあり皆楯と盔をもつ
Persia, Ethiopia, and Put with them, all of them with shield and helmet;
6 ゴメルとその諸の軍隊北の極のトガルマの族とその諸の軍隊など衆多の民汝とともにあり
Gomer, and all his troops; the house of Togarmah in the uttermost parts of the north, and all his hordes; even many peoples with you.
7 汝準備をなせ汝と汝にあつまれるところの軍隊みな備をせよ而して汝かれらの保護となれ
"'"Be ready and stay ready, you and all your companies who are assembled to you, and be a guard to them.
8 衆多の日の後なんぢ罰せられん末の年に汝かの劍をのがれてかへり衆多の民の中より集りきたれる者の地にいたり久しく荒ゐたるイスラエルの山々にいたらん是は國々より導きいだされて皆安然に住ふなり
After many days you shall be summoned: in the latter years you shall come to a land that is restored from war, a gathering from many peoples on the mountains of Israel, that had long been in ruins. Its people were brought out from the peoples, and all of them now live securely.
9 汝その諸の軍隊および衆多の民をひきゐて上り暴風のごとく至り雲のごとく地を覆はん
You shall advance, coming like a storm. You will be like a cloud covering the land, you, all your troops, and the many other peoples with you."
10 主ヱホバかくいひたまふ其日に汝の心に思想おこり惡き謀計をくはだてて
"'Thus says the LORD: "It shall happen on that day, that thoughts shall come into your mind, and you shall devise an an evil scheme:
11 言ん我平原の邑々にのぼり穩にして安然に住る者等にいたらん是みな石垣なくして居り關も門もあらざる者なりと
and you shall say, 'I will go up to the land of unwalled villages; I will go to those who who dwell securely, all of them dwelling without walls, and having neither bars nor gates;
12 斯して汝物を奪ひ物を掠め汝の手をかへして彼の人の住むにいたれる墟址を攻め又かの國々より集りきたりて地の墺區にすみて群と財寶をもつところの民をせめんとす
to seize spoil and carry off plunder; to turn my hand against the waste places that are now inhabited, acquired livestock and goods, who live at the center of the earth.'
13 シバ、デダン、タルシシの商賈およびその諸の小獅子汝に言ん汝物を奪はんとて來れるや汝物を掠めんために軍隊をあつめしや金銀をもちさり群と財寶を取り多くの物を奪はんとするやと
Sheba, and Dedan, and the merchants of Tarshish, with all its young warriors will say to you, 'Have you assembled your armies to carry off plunder, to carry away silver and gold, to take away cattle and goods, to to seize great spoil?'"'
14 是故に人の子よ汝預言してゴグに言へ主ヱホバかくいひたまふ其日に汝わが民イスラエルの安然に住むを知ざらんや
"Therefore, son of man, prophesy, and tell Gog, 'Thus says the LORD: "On that day when my people Israel are dwelling securely, you will take notice?
15 汝すなはち北の極なる汝の處より來らん衆多の民汝とともにあり皆馬に乗る其軍隊は大にしてその軍勢は夥多し
You shall come from your place out of the uttermost parts of the north, you and many peoples with you, all of them riding on horses, a great company and a mighty army;
16 而して汝わが民イスラエルに攻きたり雲のごとくに地を覆はんゴグよ末の日にこの事あらんすなはち我汝をわが地に攻きたらしめ汝をもて我の聖き事を國々の民の目のまへにあらはして彼らに我をしらしむべし
and you shall come up against my people Israel, as a cloud covering the land. But when this happens in future days, I will bring you against my land, so that the nations may know me, Gog, when through you I show my holiness in their sight."
17 主ヱホバかく言たまふ我の昔日わが僕なるイスラエルの預言者等をもて語りし者は汝ならずや即ち彼ら其頃年ひさしく預言して我汝を彼らに攻きたらしめんと言り
"'Thus says the LORD: "Are you the one of whom I spoke in former days by my servants the prophets of Israel, who in those days prophesied for years that I would bring you against them?"
18 主ヱホバいひたまふ其日すなはちゴグがイスラエルの地に攻來らん日にわが怒面にあらはるべし
But it shall happen on that day, when Gog shall come against the land of Israel,' says the LORD, 'that my hot anger will be aroused.
19 我嫉妬と燃たつ怒をもて言ふ其日には必ずイスラエルの地に大なる震動あらん
For in my zeal, in the fire of my fury, I declare that on that day there shall be a great shaking in the land of Israel;
20 海の魚空の鳥野の獣凡て地に匍ふところの昆蟲凡て地にある人わが前に震へん又山々崩れ嶄巌たふれ石垣みな地に仆れん
so that the fish of the sea, and the birds of the sky, and the animals of the field, and all crawling creatures who crawl on the land, and all people who are on the face of the earth, shall shake at my presence. And the mountains shall be thrown down, and the cliffs shall fall, and every wall shall fall to the ground.
21 主ヱホバいひたまふ我劍をわが諸の山に召きたりて彼をせめしめん人々の劍その兄弟を撃べし
I will call for a sword against him on all my mountains,' says the LORD: 'every man's sword shall be against his brother.
22 我疫病と血をもて彼の罪をたださん我漲ぎる雨と雹と火と硫磺を彼とその軍勢および彼とともなる多の民の上に降すべし
With pestilence and with bloodshed I will enter into judgment with him; and I will rain on him, and on his troops, and on the many peoples who are with him, torrential rains and hailstones, fire, and brimstone.
23 而して我わが大なることと聖きことを明かにし衆多の國民の目のまへに我を示さん彼らはすなはち我のヱホバなることをしるべし
I will show my greatness and my holiness, and I will make myself known in the sight of many nations. Then they will know that I am the LORD.'
