< ゼカリヤ書 14 >

1 視よヱホバの日來る汝の貨財奪はれて汝の中にて分たるべし
A day is coming for the Lord, when your plundered possessions will be divided while you watch.
2 我萬國の民を集めてヱルサレムを攻撃しめん邑は取られ家は掠められ婦女は犯され邑の人は半は擄へられてゆかん然どその餘の民は邑より絶れじ
And all the nations will gather to Jerusalem, to fight against it. The city will be taken and the houses plundered and the women raped. Half of the city will go into captivity, and the rest of the people left in the ruins.
3 その時ヱホバ出きたりて其等の國人を攻撃たまはん在昔その軍陣の日に戰ひたまひしごとくなるべし
Then the Lord will go forth and fight against these nations, as once he fought in the day of battle.
4 其日にはヱルサレムの前に當りて東にあるところの橄欖山の上に彼の足立ん而して橄欖山その眞中より西東に裂て甚だ大なる谷を成しその山の半は北に半は南に移るべし
On that day his feet will stand on the Mount of Olives, (which is opposite Jerusalem, on the east). The Mount of Olives will be split into halves, from east to west, by an exceedingly great valley; and half of the mountain will slide northwards and half southwards.
5 汝らは我山の谷に逃いらん其山の谷はアザルにまで及ぶべし汝らはユダの王ウジヤの世に地震を避て逃しごとくに逃ん我神ヱホバ來りたまはん諸の聖者なんぢとともなるべし
You will escape through my valley – the valley between the hills will extend as far as Azel, and you will flee as you fled from before the earthquake, in the days of Uzziah king of Judah. But the Lord your God will come, and all the holy ones with him.
6 その日には光明なかるべく輝く者消うすべし
And in that day, there will be no heat nor cold nor frost,
7 茲に只一の日あるべしヱホバこれを知たまふ是は晝にもあらず夜にもあらず夕暮の頃に明くなるべし
but it will be constant day – it is known to the Lord – with neither day nor night. Even at evening time there will be light.
8 その日に活る水ヱルサレムより出でその半は東の海にその半は西の海に流れん夏も冬も然あるべし
And on that day living waters will flow from Jerusalem, half of them to the eastern sea and half of them to the western sea; in both summer and winter.
9 ヱホバ全地の王となりたまはん其日には只ヱホバのみ只その御名のみにならん
The Lord will be king over all the earth. On that day the Lord will be one, and his name one.
10 全地はアラバのごとくなりてゲバよりヱルサレムの南のリンモンまでの間のごとくなるべし而してヱルサレムは高くなりてその故の處に立ちベニヤミンの門より第一の門の處に及び隅の門にいたりハナニエルの戍樓より王の酒榨倉までに渉るべし
The land will be changed to plain, from Geba to Rimmon, south of Jerusalem, but Jerusalem will be high and inhabited as it stands, from the Benjamin Gate up to the place of the first gate, and from the Tower of Hananel to the Corner Gate, and as far as the king’s winepresses.
11 その中には人住ん重て呪詛あらじヱルサレムは安然に立べし
Jerusalem will be inhabited, for never again will it be doomed to destruction, and its people will abide in security.
12 ヱルサレムを攻撃し諸の民にヱホバ災禍を降してこれを撃なやましたまふこと是のごとくなるべし即ち彼らその足にて立をる中に肉腐れ目その孔の中にて腐れ舌その口の中にて腐れん
This is the plague with which the Lord will strike all the peoples who array themselves against Jerusalem: he will make their flesh rot while they stand on their feet, and their eyes will rot in their sockets, and their tongues will rot in their mouth.
13 その日にはヱホバかれらをして大に狼狽しめたまはん彼らは各人の手を執へん此手と彼手撃あふべし
On that day a great panic sent by the Lord will fall on them. Everyone will seize their neighbours and attack them.
14 ユダもまたヱルサレムに於て戰ふべしその四周の一切の國人の財寳金銀衣服など甚だ多く聚められん
Even Judah will fight at Jerusalem, and the wealth of the surrounding nations will be gathered up – gold and silver and piles of clothing.
15 また馬騾駱駝驢馬およびその諸營の一切の家畜の蒙る災禍もこの災禍のごとくなるべし
Plague will fall upon the horses, mules, camels, and asses, and on all the animals in all those camps.
16 ヱルサレムに攻きたりし諸の國人の遺れる者はみな歳々に上りきてその王なる萬軍のヱホバを拜み結茅の節を守るにいたるべし
All who are left of all the nations which fought against Jerusalem will come up from year to year to worship the King, the Lord of hosts, and to keep the pilgrim-feast of tabernacles.
17 地上の諸族の中その王なる萬軍のヱホバを拜みにヱルサレムに上らざる者の上には凡て雨ふらざるべし
Whoever of all the peoples of the earth will not come up to Jerusalem to worship the King, the Lord of hosts, on them there will be no rain.
18 例ばエジプトの族もし上り來らざる時はその上に雨ふらじヱホバその結茅の節を守りに上らざる一切の國人を撃なやます災禍を之に降したまふべし
If the family of Egypt does not go up nor enter in, on them also will come the plague with which the Lord will strike the nations.
19 エジプトの罪凡て結茅の節を守りに上り來らざる國人の罪是のごとくなるべし
This will be the punishment for the sin of Egypt and the punishment for the sin of all nations which do not come up to keep the feast of the tabernacles.
20 その日には馬の鈴にまでヱホバに聖としるさん又ヱホバの家の鍋は壇の前の鉢と等しかるべし
On that day there will be inscribed upon the bells of the horses, “Holy to the Lord” and the pots in the house of the Lord will be as holy as the sacrificial bowls before the altars.
21 ヱルサレムおよびユダの鍋は都て萬軍のヱホバの聖物となるべし凡そ犠牲を獻ぐる者は來りてこれを取り其中にて祭肉を煮ん其日には萬軍のヱホバの室に最早カナン人あらざるべし
Every pot in Jerusalem and in Judah will be holy to the Lord of hosts and all who sacrifice will come and take of them and cook the sacrifices in them. There will be no more traffickers in the house of the Lord of hosts in that day.
