< エレミヤ書 20 >

1 祭司インメルの子ヱホバの室の宰の長なるパシユル、ヱレミヤがこの言を預言するをきけり
Now Pashhur, the son of Immer the priest, who was chief officer in the house of the LORD, heard Jeremiah prophesying these things.
2 是に於てパシユル預言者ヱレミヤを打ちヱホバの室にある上のベニヤミンの門の桎梏に繋げり
Then Pashhur struck Jeremiah the prophet, and put him in the stocks that were in the Upper Gate of Benjamin, which was in the house of the LORD.
3 翌日パシユル、ヱレミヤを桎梏より釋はなちしにヱレミヤ彼にいひけるはヱホバ汝の名をパシユルと稱ずしてマゴルミッサビブ(驚懼周圍にあり)と稱び給ふ
It happened on the next day, that Pashhur brought forth Jeremiah out of the stocks. Then Jeremiah said to him, "The LORD has not called your name 'Pashhur,' but 'Magor-Missabib.'
4 即ちヱホバかくいひたまふ視よわれ汝をして汝と汝のすべての友に恐怖をおこさしむる者となさん彼らはその敵の劍に仆れん汝の目はこれを見べし我またユダのすべての民をバビロン王の手に付さん彼は彼らをバビロンに移し劍をもて殺すべし
For thus says the LORD, 'Look, I will make you a terror to yourself, and to all your friends; and they shall fall by the sword of their enemies, and your eyes shall see it; and I will give all Judah into the hand of the king of Babylon, and he shall carry them captive to Babylon, and shall kill them with the sword.
5 我またこの邑のすべての貨財とその得たる諸の物とその諸の珍寶とユダの王等のすべての儲蓄を其敵の手に付さん彼らはこれを掠めまた民を擄へてバビロンに移すべし
Moreover I will give all the riches of this city, and all its gains, and all the precious things of it, yes, all the treasures of the kings of Judah will I give into the hand of their enemies; and they shall make them a prey, and take them, and carry them to Babylon.
6 パシユルよ汝と汝の家にすめる者は悉く擄へ移されん汝はバビロンにいたりて彼處に死にかしこに葬られん汝も汝が僞りて預言せし言を聽し友もみな然らん
You, Pashhur, and all who dwell in your house shall go into captivity; and you shall come to Babylon, and there you shall die, and there you shall be buried, you, and all your friends, to whom you have prophesied falsely.'"
7 ヱホバよ汝われを勸めたまひてわれ其勸に從へり汝我をとらへて我に勝給へりわれ日々に人の笑となり人皆我を嘲りぬ
LORD, you have persuaded me, and I was persuaded. You are stronger than I am, and have prevailed. I have become a laughing-stock all day long; everyone mocks me.
8 われ語り呼はるごとに暴逆殘虐の事をいふヱホバの言日々にわが身の恥辱となり嘲弄となるなり
For as often as I speak, I cry out; I cry, "Violence and destruction." because the word of the LORD is made a reproach to me, and a derision, all the day.
9 是をもて我かさねてヱホバの事を宣ず又その名をもてかたらじといへり然どヱホバのことば我心にありて火のわが骨の中に閉こもりて燃るがごとくなれば忍耐につかれて堪難し
If I say, "I will not make mention of him, nor speak any more in his name," then there is in my heart as it were a burning fire shut up in my bones, and I am weary with forbearing, and I can't contain it.
10 そは我おほくの人の讒をきく驚懼まはりにあり訴へよ彼を訴へん我親しき者はみな我蹶くことあらんかと窺ひて互にいふ彼誘はるることあらんしからば我儕彼に勝て仇を報ゆることをえんと
For I have heard the defaming of many, terror on every side. "Denounce, and we will denounce him," say all my familiar friends, those who watch for my fall; "perhaps he will be persuaded, and we shall prevail against him, and we shall take our revenge on him."
11 然どヱホバは強き勇士のごとくにして我と偕にいます故に我を攻る者は蹶きて勝ことをえずそのなし遂ざるが爲に大なる恥辱を取ん其羞恥は何時迄も忘られざるべし
But the LORD is with me as an awesome mighty one: therefore my persecutors shall stumble, and they shall not prevail; they shall be utterly disappointed, because they have not dealt wisely, even with an everlasting dishonor which shall never be forgotten.
12 義人を試み人の心膓を見たまふ萬軍のヱホバよ我汝に訴を申たれば我をして汝が彼らに仇を報すを見せしめよ
But, the LORD of hosts, who tests the righteous, who sees the heart and the mind, let me see your vengeance on them; for to you have I revealed my cause.
13 ヱホバに歌を謠へよヱホバを頌めよそは貧者の生命を惡者の手より救ひ給へばなり
Sing to the LORD, praise the LORD; for he has delivered the soul of the needy from the hand of evildoers.
14 ああ我生れし日は詛はれよ我母のわれを生し日は祝せられざれ
Cursed is the day in which I was born: do not let the day in which my mother bore me be blessed.
15 わが父に男子汝に生れしと告て父を大に喜ばせし人は詛はれよ
Cursed is the man who brought news to my father, saying, A boy is born to you; making him very glad.
16 其人はヱホバの憫まずして滅したまひし邑のごとくなれよ彼をして朝に號呼をきかしめ午間に鬨聲をきかしめよ
Let that man be as the cities which the LORD overthrew, and did not repent: and let him hear a cry in the morning, and shouting at noontime;
17 彼我を胎のうちに殺さず我母を我の墓となさず常にその胎を大ならしめざりしが故なり
because he did not kill me from the womb; and so my mother would have been my grave, and her womb always great.
18 我何なれば胎をいでて艱難と憂患をかうむり恥辱をもて日を送るや
Why came I forth out of the womb to see labor and sorrow, that my days should be consumed with shame?
