- 主は 川を 荒野に, 水のわき 上がる 所を 潤いのない 地に,
- 肥沃な 地を 不毛の 地に 變えられる. その 住民の 惡のために.
- 主は 荒野を 水のある 澤に, 砂漠の 地を 水のわき 上がる 所に 變え,
- そこに 飢えた 者を 住まわせる. 彼らは 住むべき 町を 堅く 建て,
- 畑に 種を 蒔き, ぶどう 畑を 作り, 豊かな 實りを 得る.

- He turned rivers into a desert, flowing springs into thirsty ground,
- and fruitful land into a salt waste, because of the wickedness of those who lived there.
- He turned the desert into pools of water and the parched ground into flowing springs;
- there he brought the hungry to live, and they founded a city where they could settle.
- They sowed fields and planted vineyards that yielded a fruitful harvest;
|
- 主が 祝福されると, 彼らは 大いにふえ, 主はその 家畜を 減らされない.
- 彼らが, しいたげとわざわいと 悲しみによって, 數が 減り, またうなだれるとき,
- 主は 君主たちをさげすみ, 道なき 荒れ 地に 彼らをさまよわせる.
- しかし, 貧しい 者を 惱みから 高く 上げ, その 一族を 羊の 群れのようにされる.
- 直ぐな 人はそれを 見て 喜び, 不正な 者はすべてその 口を 閉じる.

- he blessed them, and their numbers greatly increased, and he did not let their herds diminish.
- Then their numbers decreased, and they were humbled by oppression, calamity and sorrow;
- he who pours contempt on nobles made them wander in a trackless waste.
- But he lifted the needy out of their affliction and increased their families like flocks.
- The upright see and rejoice, but all the wicked shut their mouths.
|
- 知惠のある 者はだれか. その 者はこれらのことに 心を 留め, 主の 惠みを 悟れ.
|
- Whoever is wise, let him heed these things and consider the great love of the LORD.
