< エレミヤ書 28 >

1 この年すなはちユダの王ゼデキヤが位に即し初その四年の五月ギベオンのアズルの子なる預言者ハナニヤ、ヱホバの室にて祭司と凡の民の前にて我に語りいひけるは
That same year, in the beginning of the reign of Zedekiah king of Judah, in the fourth year, in the fifth month, Hananiah the son of Azzur, the prophet, who was of Gibeon, spoke to me in the LORD’s house, in the presence of the priests and of all the people, saying,
2 萬軍のヱホバ、イスラエルの神かくいひたまふ我バビロンの王の軛を摧けり
“The LORD of Armies, the God of Israel, says, ‘I have broken the yoke of the king of Babylon.
3 二年の内にバビロンの王ネブカデネザルがこの處より取てバビロンに携へゆきしヱホバの室の器皿を再び悉くこの處に歸らしめん
Within two full years I will bring again into this place all the vessels of the LORD’s house that Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon took away from this place and carried to Babylon.
4 我またユダの王ヱホヤキムの子ヱコニヤおよびバビロンに住しユダのすべての擄人をこの處に歸らしめんそは我バビロンの王の軛を摧くべければなりとヱホバいひたまふ
I will bring again to this place Jeconiah the son of Jehoiakim, king of Judah, with all the captives of Judah, who went to Babylon,’ says the LORD; ‘for I will break the yoke of the king of Babylon.’”
5 是に於て預言者ヱレミヤ、ヱホバの家に立る祭司の前とすべての民の前にて預言者ハナニヤと語ふ
Then the prophet Jeremiah said to the prophet Hananiah in the presence of the priests, and in the presence of all the people who stood in the LORD’s house,
6 預言者ヱレミヤすなはちいひけるはアーメン願くはヱホバかくなし給へ願くはバビロンに携へゆかれしヱホバの室の器皿及びすべて虜へうつされし者をヱホバ、バビロンより復びこの處に歸らしめたまはんと汝の預言せし言の成らんことを
even the prophet Jeremiah said, “Amen! May the LORD do so. May the LORD perform your words which you have prophesied, to bring again the vessels of the LORD’s house, and all those who are captives, from Babylon to this place.
7 然ど汝いま我なんぢの耳と諸の民の耳に語らんとする此言をきけ
Nevertheless listen now to this word that I speak in your ears, and in the ears of all the people:
8 我と汝の先にいでし預言者は古昔より多くの地と大なる國につきて戰鬪と災難と疫病の事を預言せり
The prophets who have been before me and before you of old prophesied against many countries, and against great kingdoms, of war, of evil, and of pestilence.
9 泰平を預言するところの預言者は若しその預言者の言とげなばその誠にヱホバの遣したまへる者なること知らるべし
As for the prophet who prophesies of peace, when the word of the prophet happens, then the prophet will be known, that the LORD has truly sent him.”
10 ここに於て預言者ハナニヤ預言者ヱレミヤの項より軛を取てこれを摧けり
Then Hananiah the prophet took the bar from off the prophet Jeremiah’s neck, and broke it.
11 ハナニヤ諸の民の前にて語りヱホバかくいひたまふわれ二年のうちに是の如く萬國民の項よりバビロン王ネブカデネザルの軛を摧きはなさんといふ預言者ヱレミヤ遂に去りぬ
Hananiah spoke in the presence of all the people, saying, “The LORD says: ‘Even so I will break the yoke of Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon from off the neck of all the nations within two full years.’” Then the prophet Jeremiah went his way.
12 預言者ハナニヤ預言者ヱレミヤの項より軛を摧きはなせし後ヱホバの言ヱレミヤに臨みていふ
Then the LORD’s word came to Jeremiah, after Hananiah the prophet had broken the bar from off the neck of the prophet Jeremiah, saying,
13 汝ゆきてハナニヤにヱホバかくいふと告よ汝木の軛を摧きたれども之に代て鐵の軛を作れり
“Go, and tell Hananiah, saying, ‘The LORD says, “You have broken the bars of wood, but you have made in their place bars of iron.”
14 萬軍のヱホバ、イスラエルの神かくいふ我鐵の軛をこの萬國民の項に置きてバビロンの王ネブカデネザルに事へしむ彼ら之につかへんわれ野の獸をもこれに與へたり
For the LORD of Armies, the God of Israel says, “I have put a yoke of iron on the neck of all these nations, that they may serve Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon; and they will serve him. I have also given him the animals of the field.”’”
15 また預言者ヱレミヤ預言者ハナニヤにいひけるはハナニヤよ請ふ聽けヱホバ汝を遣はし給はず汝はこの民に謊を信ぜしむるなり
Then the prophet Jeremiah said to Hananiah the prophet, “Listen, Hananiah! The LORD has not sent you, but you make this people trust in a lie.
16 是故にヱホバいひ給ふ我汝を地の面よりのぞかん汝ヱホバに叛くことを敎ふるによりて今年死ぬべしと
Therefore the LORD says, ‘Behold, I will send you away from off the surface of the earth. This year you will die, because you have spoken rebellion against the LORD.’”
17 預言者ハナニヤはこの年の七月死ねり
So Hananiah the prophet died the same year in the seventh month.
