< エゼキエル書 6 >

1 ヱホバの言われに臨みて言ふ
The LORD’s word came to me, saying,
2 人の子よ汝の面をイスラエルの山々にむけて預言して言ふべし
“Son of man, set your face towards the mountains of Israel, and prophesy to them,
3 イスラエルの山よ主ヱホバの言を聽け主ヱホバ山と岡と谷と平原にむかひて斯いひたまふ視よ我劍を汝等に遣り汝らの崇邱を滅ぼす
and say, ‘You mountains of Israel, hear the word of the Lord GOD! The Lord GOD says to the mountains and to the hills, to the watercourses and to the valleys: “Behold, I, even I, will bring a sword on you, and I will destroy your high places.
4 汝等の壇は荒され日の像は毀たれん我汝らの中の殺さるる者をして汝らの偶像の前に仆れしむべし
Your altars will become desolate, and your incense altars will be broken. I will cast down your slain men before your idols.
5 我イスラエルの子孫の尸骸をその偶像の前に置ん汝らの骨をその壇の周圍に散さん
I will lay the dead bodies of the children of Israel before their idols. I will scatter your bones around your altars.
6 凡て汝らの住ところにて邑々は滅され崇邱は荒されん斯して汝らの壇は壞れて荒れ汝らの偶像は毀たれて滅び汝等の日の像は斫たふされ汝等の作りし者は絕されん
In all your dwelling places, the cities will be laid waste and the high places will be desolate, so that your altars may be laid waste and made desolate, and your idols may be broken and cease, and your incense altars may be cut down, and your works may be abolished.
7 又殺さるる者なんぢらの中に仆れん汝等これに由て吾ヱホバなるを知るにいたらん
The slain will fall amongst you, and you will know that I am the LORD.
8 我或者を汝らにのこす即ち劍をのがれて異邦の中にをる者國々の中にちらさるる者是なり
“‘“Yet I will leave a remnant, in that you will have some that escape the sword amongst the nations, when you are scattered through the countries.
9 汝等の中の逃れたる者はその擄ゆかれし國々において我を記念ふに至らん是は我かれらの我をはなれたるその姦淫をなすの心を挫き且かれらの姦淫を好みてその偶像を慕ふところの目を挫くに由てなり而して彼等はその諸の憎むべき者をもて爲たるところの惡のために自ら恨むべし
Those of you that escape will remember me amongst the nations where they are carried captive, how I have been broken with their lewd heart, which has departed from me, and with their eyes, which play the prostitute after their idols. Then they will loathe themselves in their own sight for the evils which they have committed in all their abominations.
10 斯彼等はわがヱホバなるを知るにいたらん吾がこの災害をかれらになさんと語しことは徒然にならざるなり
They will know that I am the LORD. I have not said in vain that I would do this evil to them.”’
11 主ヱホバかく言たまふ汝手をもて撃ち足を踏ならして言へ嗚呼凡てイスラエルの家の惡き憎むべき者は禍なるかな皆刀と饑饉と疫病に仆るべし
“The Lord GOD says: ‘Strike with your hand, and stamp with your foot, and say, “Alas!”, because of all the evil abominations of the house of Israel; for they will fall by the sword, by the famine, and by the pestilence.
12 遠方にある者は疫病にて死に近方にある者は刀に仆れん又生存りて身を全うする者は饑饉に死ぬべし斯我わが憤怒を彼等に洩しつくすべし
He who is far off will die of the pestilence. He who is near will fall by the sword. He who remains and is besieged will die by the famine. Thus I will accomplish my wrath on them.
13 彼等の殺さるる者その偶像の中にありその壇の周圍にあり諸の高岡にあり諸の山の頂にあり諸の靑樹の下にあり諸の茂れる橡樹の下にあり彼等が馨しき香をその諸の偶像にささげたる處にあらん其時汝等はわがヱホバなるを知るべし
You will know that I am the LORD when their slain men are amongst their idols around their altars, on every high hill, on all the tops of the mountains, under every green tree, and under every thick oak—the places where they offered pleasant aroma to all their idols.
14 我手をかれらの上に伸べ凡てかれらの住居ところにて其地を荒してデブラの野にもまさる荒地となすべし是によりて彼らはわがヱホバなるを知るにいたらん
I will stretch out my hand on them and make the land desolate and waste, from the wilderness towards Diblah, throughout all their habitations. Then they will know that I am the LORD.’”
