イザヤ書 62

1 われシオンの義あさ日の光輝のごとくにいで ヱルサレムの救もゆる松火のごとくになるまではシオンのために默さずヱルサレムのために休まざるべし

For Zion’s sake I will not hold my peace, and for Jerusalem’s sake I will not rest, until her righteousness shines out like the dawn, and her salvation like a burning lamp.

2 もろもろの國はなんぢの義を見 もろもろの王はみななんぢの榮をみん 斯てなんぢはヱホバの口にて定め給ふ新しき名をもて稱へらるべし

The nations will see your righteousness, and all kings your glory. You will be called by a new name, which the LORD’s mouth will name.

3 また汝はうるはしき冠のごとくヱホバの手にあり 王の冕のごとくなんぢの神のたなごころにあらん

You will also be a crown of beauty in the LORD’s hand, and a royal diadem in your God’s hand.

4 人ふたたび汝をすてられたる者といはず 再びなんぢの地をあれたる者といはじ 却てなんぢをヘフジバ(わが悦ぶところ)ととなへ なんぢの地をベウラ(配偶)ととなふべし そはヱホバなんぢをよろこびたまふ なんぢの地は配偶をえん

You will not be called Forsaken any more, nor will your land be called Desolate any more; but you will be called Hephzibah, and your land Beulah; for the LORD delights in you, and your land will be married.

5 わかきものの處女をめとる如くなんぢの子輩はなんぢを娶らん 新郎の新婦をよろこぶごとくなんぢの神なんぢを喜びたまふべし

For as a young man marries a virgin, so your sons will marry you. As a bridegroom rejoices over his bride, so your God will rejoice over you.

6 ヱルサレムよ我なんぢの石垣のうへに斥候をおきて終日終夜たえず默すことなからしむ なんぢらヱホバに記念したまはんことを求むるものよ 自らやすむなかれ

I have set watchmen on your walls, Jerusalem. They will never be silent day nor night. You who call on the LORD, take no rest,

7 ヱホバ、ヱルサレムをたてて全地に譽をえしめ給ふまでは息め奉るなかれ

and give him no rest until he establishes, and until he makes Jerusalem a praise in the earth.

8 ヱホバその右手をさしその大能の臂をさし誓ひて宣給く われ再びなんぢの五穀をなんぢの敵にあたへて食はせず 異邦人はなんぢが勞したる酒をのまざるべし

The LORD has sworn by his right hand, and by the arm of his strength, “Surely I will no more give your grain to be food for your enemies, and foreigners will not drink your new wine, for which you have laboured,

9 収穫せしものは之をくらひてヱホバを讃たたへ 葡萄をあつめし者はわが聖所の庭にて之をのむべし

but those who have harvested it will eat it, and praise the LORD. Those who have gathered it will drink it in the courts of my sanctuary.”

10 門よりすすみゆけ進みゆけ 民の途をそなへ土をもり土をもりて大路をまうけよ 石をとりのぞけ もろもろの民に旗をあげて示せ

Go through, go through the gates! Prepare the way of the people! Build up, build up the highway! Gather out the stones! Lift up a banner for the peoples.

11 ヱホバ地の極にまで告てのたまはく 汝等シオンの女にいへ 視よなんぢらの救きたる 視よ主の手にその恩賜あり はたらきの價はその前にあり

Behold, the LORD has proclaimed to the end of the earth: “Say to the daughter of Zion, ‘Behold, your salvation comes! Behold, his reward is with him, and his recompense before him!’”

12 而してかれらはきよき民またヱホバにあがなはれたる者ととなへられん なんぢは人にもとめ尋らるるもの棄られざる邑ととなへらるべし

They will call them “The Holy People, The LORD’s Redeemed”. You will be called “Sought Out, A City Not Forsaken”.
