イザヤ書 19
1 エジプトにかかる重負のよげん いはく／ヱホバははやき雲にのりてエジプトに來りたまふ エジプトのもろもろの偶像はその前にふるひをののき エジプト人のこころはその衷にて消ゆかん
A declaration about Egypt. See, Yahweh rides on a swift cloud and is coming to Egypt; the idols of Egypt quake before him, and the hearts of the Egyptians melt within themselves.
2 我エジプト人をたけび勇ましめてエジプト人を攻しめん斯てかれら各自その兄弟をせめおのおのその鄰をせめ 邑は邑をせめ國はくにを攻べし
“I will stir up Egyptians against Egyptians: A man will fight against his brother, and a man against his neighbor; city will be against city, and kingdom against kingdom.
3 エジプト人の靈魂うせてその中むなしくならん われその謀略をほろぼすべし かれらは偶像および呪文をとなふるもの巫女魔術者にもとむることを爲ん
The spirit of Egypt will be weakened from within. I will destroy his advice, though they sought the advice of idols, dead men's spirits, mediums, and spiritualists.
4 われエジプト人を苛酷なる主人の手にわたさん あらあらしき王かれらを治むべし是主萬軍のヱホバの聖言なり
I will give the Egyptians into the hand of a harsh master, and a strong king will rule over them— this is the declaration of the Lord Yahweh of hosts.”
5 海の水はつき河もまた涸てかわかん
The waters of the sea will dry up, and the river will dry up and become empty.
6 また河々はくさき臭をはなちエジプトの堭はみな漸次にへりてかわき葦と蘆とかれはてん
The rivers will become foul; the streams of Egypt will dwindle and dry up; the reeds and flags will wither away.
7 ナイルのほとりの草原ナイルの岸にほどちかき所すべてナイルの最寄にまきたる者はことごとく枯てちりうせん
The reeds along the Nile, at the mouth of the Nile, and every sown field beside the Nile will become parched, will be driven away, and will be no more.
8 漁者もまた歎き すべてナイルに釣をたるる者はかなしみ網を水のうへに施ものはおとろふべし
The fishermen will wail and mourn, and all who cast a hook into the Nile will mourn, and those who spread nets on the waters will grieve.
9 練たる麻にて物つくるもの白布を織ものは恥あわて
The workers in combed flax and those who weave white cloth will turn pale.
10 その柱はくだけ一切のやとはれたる者のこころ憂ひかなしまん
The cloth workers of Egypt will be crushed; all who work for hire will be grieved within themselves.
11 誠やゾアンの諸侯は愚なりパロの最もかしこき議官のはかりごとは癡鈍べし 然ばなんぢら何でパロにむかひて我はかしこきものの子 われは古への王の子なりといふを得んや
The princes of Zoan are completely foolish. The advice of the wisest advisors of Pharaoh has become senseless. How can you say to Pharaoh, “I am the son of wise men, a son of ancient kings?”
12 なんぢの智者いづくにありや 彼らもし萬軍のヱホバの定めたまひしエジプトに係はることを暁得ばこれをなんぢに告るこそよけれ
Where then are your wise men? Let them tell you and make known what Yahweh of hosts plans concerning Egypt.
13 ゾアンのもろもろの諸侯は愚かなり ノフの諸侯は惑ひたり かれらはエジプトのもろもろの支派の隅石なるに却てエジプトをあやまらせたり
The princes of Zoan have become fools, the princes of Memphis are deceived; they have made Egypt go astray, who are the cornerstones of her tribes.
14 ヱホバ曲れる心をその中にまじへ給ひしにより 彼等はエジプトのすべて作ところを謬らせ恰かも酔る人の哇吐ときによろめくが如くならしめたり
Yahweh has mixed a spirit of distortion into her midst, and they have led Egypt astray in all she does, like a drunk staggering in his vomit.
15 エジプトにて或は首あるひは尾あるひは椶櫚のえだまたは葦すべてその作ところの工なかるべし
There is nothing anyone can do for Egypt, whether head or tail, palm branch or reed.
16 その日エジプトは婦女のごとくならん 萬軍のヱホバの動かしたまふ手のその上にうごくが故におそれをののくべし
In that day, the Egyptians will be like women. They will tremble and fear because of the upraised hand of Yahweh of hosts that he raises over them.
17 ユダの地はエジプトに懼れらる この事をかたりつぐれば聽くもの皆おそる これ萬軍のヱホバ、エジプトに對ひて定めたまへる謀略の故によるなり
The land of Judah will become a cause of staggering to Egypt. Whenever anyone reminds them of her, they will be afraid, because of the plan of Yahweh, that he is planning against them.
18 その日エジプトの地に五の邑あり カナンの方言をかたりまた萬軍のヱホバに誓ひをたてん その中のひとつは日邑ととなへらるべし
In that day there will be five cities in the land of Egypt that speak the language of Canaan and swear allegiance to Yahweh of hosts. One of these will be called The City of the Sun.
19 その日エジプトの地の中にヱホバをまつる一つの祭壇あり その境にヱホバをまつる一柱あらん
In that day there will be an altar to Yahweh in the middle of the land of Egypt, and a stone pillar at the border to Yahweh.
20 これエジプトの地にて萬軍のヱホバの徴となり證となるなり かれら暴虐者の故によりてヱホバに號求むべければ ヱホバは救ふもの護るものを遣してこれを助けたまはん
It will be as a sign and a witness to Yahweh of hosts in the land of Egypt. When they cry to Yahweh because of oppressors, he will send them a savior and a defender, and he will deliver them.
21 ヱホバおのれをエジプトに知せたまはん その日エジプト人はヱホバをしり犠牲と祭物とをもて之につかへん 誓願をヱホバにたてて成とぐべし
Yahweh will become known to Egypt, and the Egyptians will acknowledge Yahweh on that day. They will worship with sacrifices and offerings, and will make vows to Yahweh and fulfill them.
22 ヱホバ、エジプトを撃たまはん ヱホバこれを撃これを醫したまふ この故にかれらヱホバに歸らん ヱホバその懇求をいれて之をいやし給はん
Yahweh will afflict Egypt, afflicting and healing. They will return to Yahweh; he will hear their prayer and will heal them.
23 その日エジプトよりアツスリヤにかよふ大路ありて アツスリヤ人はエジプトにきたり エジプト人はアツスリヤにゆき エジプト人とアツスリヤ人と相共につかふることをせん
In that day there will be a highway from Egypt to Assyria, and the Assyrian will come to Egypt, and the Egyptian to Assyria; and the Egyptians will worship with the Assyrians.
24 その日イスラエルはエジプトとアツスリヤとを共にし三あひならび地のうへにて福祉をうくる者となるべし
In that day, Israel will be the third with Egypt and Assyria, a blessing in the midst of the earth;
25 萬軍のヱホバこれを祝して言たまはく わが民なるエジプトわが手の工なるアツスリヤわが產業なるイスラエルは福ひなるかな
Yahweh of hosts will bless them and say, “Blessed be Egypt, my people; Assyria, the work of my hands; and Israel, my inheritance.”
