1主はこう言われた。「行って、陶器師の作った土の壺を買い、民の長老たちと祭司の長老たちの中から何人かを連れて行け。
1This is what the LORD says: “Go and buy a clay jar from a potter. Take some of the elders of the people and leaders of the priests,
2ハルシトの門の入口のそばにあるベン・ヒノムの谷へ出て行き、そこで、わたしがあなたに告げる言葉を宣言せよ。
2and go out to the Valley of Ben-hinnom near the entrance of the Potsherd Gate. Proclaim there the words I speak to you,
3こう言え。『ユダの王たちとエルサレムの住民よ、主の言葉を聞け。イスラエルの神、万軍の主はこう言われる。「見よ、わたしはこの場所に災いをもたらす。それを聞く者は皆、耳が鳴る。
3saying, ‘Hear the word of the LORD, O kings of Judah and residents of Jerusalem. This is what the LORD of Hosts, the God of Israel, says: I am going to bring such disaster on this place that the ears of all who hear of it will ring,
4彼らはわたしを捨て、この場所を汚し、自分たちも父祖たちもユダの王たちも知らなかったほかの神々に、ここで香をたいた。また、この場所を罪のない者の血で満たした。
4because they have abandoned Me and made this a foreign place. They have burned incense in this place to other gods that neither they nor their fathers nor the kings of Judah have ever known. They have filled this place with the blood of the innocent.
5彼らはバアルの高き所を築き、自分たちの子どもたちを火で焼いて、バアルへの全焼のささげ物とした。それは、わたしが命じたことでも、語ったことでもなく、わたしの心に思い浮かびもしなかった。
5They have built high places to Baal on which to burn their children in the fire as offerings to Baal—something I never commanded or mentioned, nor did it even enter My mind.
6それゆえ、見よ、この場所がもはや『トフェテ』とも『ベン・ヒノムの谷』とも呼ばれず、『虐殺の谷』と呼ばれる日々が来る」と、主は言われる。
6So behold, the days are coming, declares the LORD, when this place will no longer be called Topheth or the Valley of Ben-hinnom, but the Valley of Slaughter.
7「わたしはこの場所で、ユダとエルサレムの計画をくじく。彼らを敵の前で剣に倒れさせ、彼らの命を狙う者たちの手に渡す。彼らの死体を空の鳥と地の動物の餌とする。
7And in this place I will ruin the plans of Judah and Jerusalem. I will make them fall by the sword before their enemies, by the hands of those who seek their lives, and I will give their carcasses as food to the birds of the air and the beasts of the earth.
8わたしはこの町を驚きの的、あざけりの的とする。そこを通る者は皆、そのすべての災いに驚き、あざける。
8I will make this city a desolation and an object of scorn. All who pass by will be appalled and will scoff at all her wounds.
9わたしは彼らに自分の息子の肉と娘の肉を食べさせる。敵と、彼らの命を狙う者たちが彼らを追い詰める包囲と苦難の中で、彼らは互いに友の肉を食べる。」』
9I will make them eat the flesh of their sons and daughters, and they will eat one another’s flesh in the siege and distress inflicted on them by their enemies who seek their lives.’
10それから、あなたと一緒に行く者たちの目の前で、その器を砕け。
10Then you are to shatter the jar in the presence of the men who accompany you,
11彼らにこう言え。『万軍の主はこう言われる。「陶器師の器を砕けば、もはや元に戻せないように、わたしはこの民とこの町を砕く。人々は葬る場所がなくなるまで、トフェテに死者を葬る。
11and you are to proclaim to them that this is what the LORD of Hosts says: I will shatter this nation and this city, like one shatters a potter’s jar that can never again be repaired. They will bury the dead in Topheth until there is no more room to bury them.
12わたしはこの場所とその住民にこのように行い、この町をトフェテのようにする」と、主は言われる。
12This is what I will do to this place and to its residents, declares the LORD. I will make this city like Topheth.
13「エルサレムの家々とユダの王たちの家々、すなわち、屋上で天の万象に香をたき、ほかの神々に注ぎのささげ物を注いだために汚されたすべての家は、トフェテの場所のようになる。」』」
13The houses of Jerusalem and the houses of the kings of Judah will be defiled like that place, Topheth—all the houses on whose rooftops they burned incense to all the host of heaven and poured out drink offerings to other gods.”
14エレミヤは、主に遣わされて預言したトフェテから帰り、主の家の庭に立って、すべての民に言った。
14Then Jeremiah returned from Topheth, where the LORD had sent him to prophesy, and he stood in the courtyard of the house of the LORD and proclaimed to all the people,
15「イスラエルの神、万軍の主はこう言われる。『見よ、わたしはこの町と、その周囲のすべての町々に、わたしが告げた災いをすべてもたらす。彼らがうなじを堅くし、わたしの言葉を聞こうとしなかったからだ。』」
15“This is what the LORD of Hosts, the God of Israel, says: ‘Behold, I am about to bring on this city and on all the villages around it every disaster I have pronounced against them, because they have stiffened their necks so as not to heed My words.’”
