エレミヤ書 34
1 バビロンの王ネブカデレザルがその全軍と、彼に従っている地のすべての国の人々、およびもろもろの民を率いて、エルサレムとその町々を攻めて戦っていた時に、主からエレミヤに臨んだ言葉、
The word which it came to Jeremiah from with Yahweh and Nebuchadnezzar [the] king of Babylon - and all army his and all [the] kingdoms of [the] earth [the] rule of hand his and all the peoples [were] fighting on Jerusalem and on all cities its saying.
2 「イスラエルの神、主はこう言われる、行ってユダの王ゼデキヤに告げて言いなさい、『主はこう言われる、見よ、わたしはこの町をバビロンの王の手に渡す。彼は火でこれを焼く。
Thus he says Yahweh [the] God of Israel go and you will say to Zedekiah [the] king of Judah and you will say to him thus he says Yahweh here I [am] about to give the city this in [the] hand of [the] king of Babylon and he will burn it with fire.
3 あなたはその手をのがれることはできない、必ず捕えられてその手に渡される。あなたはまのあたりバビロンの王を見、顔と顔を合わせて彼と語る。それからバビロンへ行く』。
And you not you will escape from hand his for certainly you will be captured and in hand his you will be given and eyes your [the] eyes of [the] king of Babylon they will see and mouth his with mouth your it will speak and Babylon you will go.
4 しかしユダの王ゼデキヤよ、主の言葉を聞きなさい。主はあなたの事についてこう言われる、『あなたはつるぎで死ぬことはない。
Nevertheless hear [the] word of Yahweh O Zedekiah [the] king of Judah thus he says Yahweh on you not you will die by the sword.
5 あなたは安らかに死ぬ。民はあなたの先祖であるあなたの先の王たちのために香をたいたように、あなたのためにも香をたき、またあなたのために嘆いて「ああ、主君よ」と言う』。わたしがこの言葉をいうのであると主は言われる」。
In peace you will die and like [the] burnings of fathers your the kings former who they were before you so people will burn for you and alas! O lord they will mourn for you for a promise I I have spoken [the] utterance of Yahweh.
6 そこで預言者エレミヤはこの言葉をことごとくエルサレムでユダの王ゼデキヤに告げた。
And he spoke Jeremiah the prophet to Zedekiah [the] king of Judah all the words these in Jerusalem.
7 その時バビロンの王の軍勢はエルサレム、および残っているユダのすべての町、すなわちラキシとアゼカを攻めて戦っていた。それはユダの町々のうちに、これらの堅固な町がなお残っていたからである。
And [the] army of [the] king of Babylon [were] fighting on Jerusalem and on all [the] cities of Judah which were left against Lachish and against Azekah for they they remained among [the] cities of Judah cities of fortification.
8 ゼデキヤ王がエルサレムにいるすべての民と契約を立てて、彼らに釈放のことを告げ示した後に、主からエレミヤに臨んだ言葉。
The word which it came to Jeremiah from with Yahweh after made the king Zedekiah a covenant with all the people which [was] in Jerusalem to proclaim to them liberty.
9 その契約はすなわち人がおのおのそのヘブルびとである男女の奴隷を解放し、その兄弟であるユダヤ人を奴隷としないことを定めたものであった。
To let go everyone [male] slave his and everyone female slave his Hebrew [masc] and Hebrew [fem] free [people] to not to work by them by a Jew brother his anyone.
10 この契約をしたつかさたちと、すべての民は人がおのおのその男女の奴隷を解放し、再びこれを奴隷としないということに聞き従って、これを解放したが、
And they obeyed all the officials and all the people who they went in the covenant to let go everyone [male] slave his and everyone female slave his free [people] to not to work by them again and they obeyed and they let [them] go.
11 後に心を翻し、解放した男女の奴隷をひきかえさせ、再びこれを従わせて奴隷とした。
And they turned back after thus and they took back the [male] slaves and the female slaves whom they had let go free [people] (and they subjugated them *Qk) for [male] slaves and for female slaves.
12 そこで主の言葉が主からエレミヤに臨んだ、
And it came [the] word of Yahweh to Jeremiah from with Yahweh saying.
13 「イスラエルの神、主はこう言われる、わたしはあなたがたの先祖をエジプトの地、その奴隷であった家から導き出した時、彼らと契約を立てて言った、
Thus he says Yahweh [the] God of Israel I I made a covenant with ancestors your on [the] day brought out I them from [the] land of Egypt from a house of slaves saying.
14 『あなたがたの兄弟であるヘブルびとで、あなたがたに身を売り、六年の間あなたがたに仕えた者は、六年の終りに、あなたがたおのおのがこれを解放しなければならない。あなたがたは彼を解放して、あなたがたに仕えることをやめさせなければならない』。ところがあなたがたの先祖たちはわたしに聞き従わず、またその耳を傾けなかった。
From [the] end of seven years you will let go everyone brother his Hebrew who he will sell himself to you and he will serve you six years and you will let go him a free [person] from with you and not they listened ancestors your to me and not they inclined ear their.
15 しかしあなたがたは今日、心を改め、おのおのその隣り人に釈放のことを告げ示して、わたしの見て正しいとすることを行い、かつわたしの名をもってとなえられる家で、わたしの前に契約を立てた。
And you turned back you this day and you did the right in eyes my by proclaiming liberty everyone to neighbor his and you made a covenant before me in the house which it is called name my on it.
16 ところがあなたがたは再び心を翻して、わたしの名を汚し、おのおの男女の奴隷をその願いのままに解放したのをひきかえさせ、再びこれを従わせて、あなたがたの奴隷とした。
And you turned back and you profaned name my and you took back everyone [male] slave his and everyone female slave his whom you had let go free [people] to desire their and you subjugated them to become of you [male] slaves and female slaves.
17 それゆえに、主はこう仰せられる、あなたがたがわたしに聞き従わず、おのおのその兄弟とその隣に釈放のことを告げ示さなかったので、見よ、わたしはあなたがたのために釈放を告げ示して、あなたがたをつるぎと、疫病と、ききんとに渡すと主は言われる。わたしはあなたがたを地のもろもろの国に忌みきらわれるものとする。
Therefore thus he says Yahweh you not you have listened to me by proclaiming liberty everyone to brother his and everyone to neighbor his here I [am] about to proclaim to you liberty [the] utterance of Yahweh to the sword to pestilence and to famine and I will make you (into a terror *QK) to all [the] kingdoms of the earth.
18 わたしの契約を破り、わたしの前に立てた契約の定めに従わない人々を、わたしは彼らが二つに裂いて、その二つの間を通った子牛のようにする。
And I will make the people who have transgressed covenant my who not they have carried out [the] words of the covenant which they made before me the calf which they cut into two [pieces] and they passed between pieces its.
19 すなわち二つに分けた子牛の間を通ったユダのつかさたち、エルサレムのつかさたちと宦官と祭司と、この地のすべての民を、
[the] officials of Judah and [the] officials of Jerusalem the court-officials and the priests and all [the] people of the land who passed between [the] pieces of the calf.
20 わたしはその敵の手と、その命を求める者の手に渡す。その死体は空の鳥と野の獣の食物となる。
And I will give them in [the] hand of enemies their and in [the] hand of [those who] seek life their and it will become corpse their food for [the] bird[s] of the heavens and for [the] animal[s] of the earth.
21 わたしはまたユダの王ゼデキヤと、そのつかさたちをその敵の手、その命を求める者の手、あなたがたを離れて去ったバビロンの王の軍勢の手に渡す。
And Zedekiah [the] king of Judah and officials his I will give in [the] hand of enemies their and in [the] hand of [those who] seek life their and in [the] hand of [the] army of [the] king of Babylon which have gone up from on you.
22 主は言われる、見よ、わたしは彼らに命じて、この町に引きかえしてこさせる。彼らはこの町を攻めて戦い、これを取り、火を放って焼き払う。わたしはユダの町々を住む人のない荒れ地とする」。
Here I [am] about to give command [the] utterance of Yahweh and I will bring back them to the city this and they will fight on it and they will capture it and they will burn it with fire and [the] cities of Judah I will make a waste from not inhabitant.
