< イザヤ書 50 >

1 ヱホバかくいひ給ふ わがなんぢらの母をさりたる離書はいづこにありや 我いづれの債主になんぢらを賣わたししや 視よなんぢらはその不義のために賣られ なんぢらの母は汝らの咎戻のために去られたり
Thus says the LORD, Where is the bill of your mother's divorcement, whom I have put away? or which of my creditors is it to whom I have sold you? Behold, for your iniquities have all of you sold yourselves, and for your transgressions is your mother put away.
2 わがきたりし時なにゆゑ一人もをらざりしや 我よびしとき何故ひとりも答ふるものなかりしや わが手みぢかくして贖ひえざるか われ救ふべき力なからんや 視よわれ叱咤すれば海はかれ河はあれのとなりそのなかの魚は水なきによりかわき死て臭氣をいだすなり
Wherefore, when I came, was there no man? when I called, was there none to answer? Is my hand shortened at all, that it cannot redeem? or have I no power to deliver? behold, at my rebuke I dry up the sea, I make the rivers a wilderness: their fish stinks, because there is no water, and dies for thirst.
3 われ黑きころもを天にきせ麁布をもて蔽となす
I clothe the heavens with blackness, and I make sackcloth their covering.
4 主ヱホバは敎をうけしものの舌をわれにあたへ言をもて疲れたるものを扶支ふることを知得しめたまふ また朝ごとに醒しわが耳をさまして敎をうけし者のごとく聞ことを得しめたまふ
The Lord GOD has given me the tongue of the learned, that I should know how to speak a word in season to him that is weary: he wakens morning by morning, he wakens mine ear to hear as the learned.
5 主ヱホバわが耳をひらき給へり われは逆ふことをせず退くことをせざりき
The Lord GOD has opened mine ear, and I was not rebellious, neither turned away back.
6 われを撻つものにわが背をまかせわが鬚をぬくものにわが頬をまかせ 恥と唾とをさくるために面をおほふことをせざりき
I gave my back to the smiters, and my cheeks to them that plucked off the hair: I hid not my face from shame and spitting.
7 主ヱホバわれを助けたまはん この故にわれ恥ることなかるべし 我わが面を石の如くして恥しめらるることなきを知る
For the Lord GOD will help me; therefore shall I not be confounded: therefore have I set my face like a flint, and I know that I shall not be ashamed.
8 われを義とするもの近きにあり たれか我とあらそはんや われら相共にたつべし わが仇はたれぞや近づききたれ
He is near that justifies me; who will contend with me? let us stand together: who is mine adversary? let him come near to me.
9 主ヱホバわれを助け給はん 誰かわれを罪せんや 視よかれらはみな衣のごとくふるび蠧のためにくひつくされん
Behold, the Lord GOD will help me; who is he that shall condemn me? lo, they all shall wax old as a garment; the moth shall eat them up.
10 汝等のうちヱホバをおそれその僕の聲をきくものは誰ぞや 暗をあゆみて光をえざるともヱホバの名をたのみおのれの神にたよれ
Who is among you that fears the LORD, that obeys the voice of his servant, that walks in darkness, and has no light? let him trust in the name of the LORD, and stay upon his God.
11 火をおこし火把を帶るものよ汝等みなその火のほのほのなかをあゆめ 又なんぢらの燃したる火把のなかをあゆめ なんぢら斯のごとき事をわが手よりうけて悲みのうちに臥べし
Behold, all you that kindle a fire, that compass yourselves about with sparks: walk in the light of your fire, and in the sparks that all of you have kindled. This shall all of you have of mine hand; all of you shall lie down in sorrow.
