ヨブ 記 18
1 シユヒ人ビルダデこたへて曰く
And Bildad the Shuhite answered and said,
2 汝等いつまで言語を獵求むることをするや 汝ら先曉るべし 然る後われら辨論はん
How long will ye hunt for words? Be intelligent, and then we will speak.
3 われら何ぞ獸畜とおもはるべけんや 何ぞ汝らの目に汚穢たる者と見らるべけんや
Wherefore are we counted as beasts, and reputed stupid in your sight?
4 なんぢ怒りて身を裂く者よ 汝のためとて地あに棄られんや 磐あに其處より移されんや
Thou that tearest thyself in thine anger, shall the earth be forsaken for thee? and shall the rock be removed out of its place?
5 惡き者の光明は滅され 其火の焔は照じ
Yea, the light of the wicked shall be put out, and the flame of his fire shall not shine.
6 その天幕の内なる光明は暗くなり其が上の燈火は滅さるべし
The light shall become dark in his tent, and his lamp over him shall be put out.
7 またその強き歩履は狹まり 其計るところは自分を陷いる
The steps of his strength shall be straitened, and his own counsel shall cast him down.
8 すなはち其足に逐れて網に到り また陷阱の上を歩むに
For he is sent into the net by his own feet, and he walketh on the meshes;
9 索はその踵に纒り 羂これを執ふ
The gin taketh [him] by the heel, the snare layeth hold on him;
10 索かれを執ふるために地に隱しあり 羂かれを陷しいるるために路に設けあり
A cord is hidden for him in the ground, and his trap in the way.
11 怖ろしき事四方において彼を懼れしめ 其足にしたがひて彼をおふ
Terrors make him afraid on every side, and chase him at his footsteps.
12 その力は餓ゑ 其傍には災禍そなはり
His strength is hunger-bitten, and calamity is ready at his side.
13 その膚の肢は蝕壞らる 即ち死の初子これが肢を蝕壞るなり
The firstborn of death devoureth the members of his body; it will devour his members.
14 やがて彼はその恃める天幕より曳離されて懼怖の王の許に驅やられん
His confidence shall be rooted out of his tent, and it shall lead him away to the king of terrors:
15 彼に屬せざる者かれの天幕に住み 硫礦かれの家の上に降ん
They who are none of his shall dwell in his tent; brimstone shall be showered upon his habitation:
16 下にてはその根枯れ 上にてはその枝砍る
His roots shall be dried up beneath, and above shall his branch be cut off;
17 彼の跡は地に絶え 彼の名は街衢に傳はらじ
His remembrance shall perish from the earth, and he shall have no name on the pasture-grounds.
18 彼は光明の中より黑暗に逐やられ 世の中より驅出されん
He is driven from light into darkness, and chased out of the world.
19 彼はその民の中に子も無く孫も有じ また彼の住所には一人も遺る者なからん
He hath neither son nor grandson among his people, nor any remaining in the places of his sojourn.
20 之が日を見るにおいて後に來る者は駭ろき 先に出し者は怖おそれん
They that come after shall be astonished at his day, as they that went before [them] were affrighted.
21 かならず惡き人の住所は是のごとく 神を知ざる者の所は是のごとくなるべし
Surely, such are the dwellings of the unrighteous man, and such the place of him that knoweth not God.
