| 2:1 The angel of Yahweh came up from Gilgal to Bochim. He said, "I made you to go up out of Egypt, and have brought you to the land which I swore to your fathers; and I said, 'I will never break my covenant with you: | 1 And an angel of the LORD came up from Gilgal to Bochim, and said, I made you to go up out of Egypt, and have brought you unto the land which I sware unto your fathers; and I said, I will never break my covenant with you. | 1 主の使がギルガルからボキムに上って言った、「わたしはあなたがたをエジプトから上らせて、あなたがたの先祖に誓った地に連れてきて、言った、『わたしはあなたと結んだ契約を決して破ることはない。 |
| 2:2 and you shall make no covenant with the inhabitants of this land; you shall break down their altars.' But you have not listened to my voice: why have you done this? | 2 And ye shall make no league with the inhabitants of this land; ye shall throw down their altars: but ye have not obeyed my voice: why have ye done this? | 2 あなたがたはこの国の住民と契約を結んではならない。彼らの祭壇をこぼたなければならない』と。しかし、あなたがたはわたしの命令に従わなかった。あなたがたは、なんということをしたのか。 |
| 2:3 Therefore I also said, I will not drive them out from before you; but they shall be as thorns in your sides, and their gods shall be a snare to you." | 3 Wherefore I also said, I will not drive them out from before you; but they shall be as thorns in your sides, and their gods shall be a snare unto you. | 3 それでわたしは言う、『わたしはあなたがたの前から彼らを追い払わないであろう。彼らはかえってあなたがたの敵となり、彼らの神々はあなたがたのわなとなるであろう』と」。 |
| 2:4 It happened, when the angel of Yahweh spoke these words to all the children of Israel, that the people lifted up their voice, and wept. | 4 And it came to pass, when the angel of the LORD spake these words unto all the children of Israel, that the people lifted up their voice, and wept. | 4 主の使がこれらの言葉をイスラエルのすべての人々に告げたので、民は声をあげて泣いた。 |
| 2:5 They called the name of that place Bochim: and they sacrificed there to Yahweh. | 5 And they called the name of that place Bochim: and they sacrificed there unto the LORD. | 5 それでその所の名をボキムと呼んだ。そして彼らはその所で主に犠牲をささげた。 |
| 2:6 Now when Joshua had sent the people away, the children of Israel went every man to his inheritance to possess the land. | 6 And when Joshua had let the people go, the children of Israel went every man unto his inheritance to possess the land. | 6 ヨシュアが民を去らせたので、イスラエルの人々はおのおのその領地へ行って土地を獲た。 |
| 2:7 The people served Yahweh all the days of Joshua, and all the days of the elders who outlived Joshua, who had seen all the great work of Yahweh that he had worked for Israel. | 7 And the people served the LORD all the days of Joshua, and all the days of the elders that outlived Joshua, who had seen all the great works of the LORD, that he did for Israel. | 7 民はヨシュアの在世中も、またヨシュアのあとに生き残った長老たち、すなわち主がかつてイスラエルのために行われたすべての大いなるわざを見た人々の在世中も主に仕えた。 |
| 2:8 Joshua the son of Nun, the servant of Yahweh, died, being one hundred ten years old. | 8 And Joshua the son of Nun, the servant of the LORD, died, being an hundred and ten years old. | 8 こうして主のしもべヌンの子ヨシュアは百十歳で死んだ。 |
| 2:9 They buried him in the border of his inheritance in Timnath Heres, in the hill country of Ephraim, on the north of the mountain of Gaash. | 9 And they buried him in the border of his inheritance in Timnathheres, in the mount of Ephraim, on the north side of the hill Gaash. | 9 人々は彼をエフライムの山地のガアシ山の北のテムナテ・ヘレスにある彼の領地内に葬った。 |
| 2:10 Also all that generation were gathered to their fathers: and there arose another generation after them, who didn't know Yahweh, nor yet the work which he had worked for Israel. | 10 And also all that generation were gathered unto their fathers: and there arose another generation after them, which knew not the LORD, nor yet the works which he had done for Israel. | 10 そしてその時代の者もまたことごとくその先祖たちのもとにあつめられた。その後ほかの時代が起ったが、これは主を知らず、また主がイスラエルのために行われたわざをも知らなかった。 |
| 2:11 The children of Israel did that which was evil in the sight of Yahweh, and served the Baals; | 11 And the children of Israel did evil in the sight of the LORD, and served Baalim: | 11 イスラエルの人々は主の前に悪を行い、もろもろのバアルに仕え、 |
| 2:12 and they forsook Yahweh, the God of their fathers, who brought them out of the land of Egypt, and followed other gods, of the gods of the peoples who were around them, and bowed themselves down to them: and they provoked Yahweh to anger. | 12 And they forsook the LORD God of their fathers, which brought them out of the land of Egypt, and followed other gods, of the gods of the people that were round about them, and bowed themselves unto them, and provoked the LORD to anger. | 12 かつてエジプトの地から彼らを導き出された先祖たちの神、主を捨てて、ほかの神々すなわち周囲にある国民の神々に従い、それにひざまずいて、主の怒りをひき起した。 |
| 2:13 They forsook Yahweh, and served Baal and the Ashtaroth. | 13 And they forsook the LORD, and served Baal and Ashtaroth. | 13 すなわち彼らは主を捨てて、バアルとアシタロテに仕えたので、 |
| 2:14 The anger of Yahweh was kindled against Israel, and he delivered them into the hands of spoilers who despoiled them; and he sold them into the hands of their enemies all around, so that they could not any longer stand before their enemies. | 14 And the anger of the LORD was hot against Israel, and he delivered them into the hands of spoilers that spoiled them, and he sold them into the hands of their enemies round about, so that they could not any longer stand before their enemies. | 14 主の怒りがイスラエルに対して燃え、かすめ奪う者の手にわたして、かすめ奪わせ、かつ周囲のもろもろの敵の手に売られたので、彼らは再びその敵に立ち向かうことができなかった。 |
| 2:15 Wherever they went out, the hand of Yahweh was against them for evil, as Yahweh had spoken, and as Yahweh had sworn to them: and they were sore distressed. | 15 Whithersoever they went out, the hand of the LORD was against them for evil, as the LORD had said, and as the LORD had sworn unto them: and they were greatly distressed. | 15 彼らがどこへ行っても、主の手は彼らに災をした。これは主がかつて言われ、また主が彼らに誓われたとおりで、彼らはひどく悩んだ。 |
| 2:16 Yahweh raised up judges, who saved them out of the hand of those who despoiled them. | 16 Nevertheless the LORD raised up judges, which delivered them out of the hand of those that spoiled them. | 16 その時、主はさばきづかさを起して、彼らをかすめ奪う者の手から救い出された。 |
| 2:17 Yet they didn't listen to their judges; for they played the prostitute after other gods, and bowed themselves down to them: they turned aside quickly out of the way in which their fathers walked, obeying the commandments of Yahweh; but they didn't do so. | 17 And yet they would not hearken unto their judges, but they went a whoring after other gods, and bowed themselves unto them: they turned quickly out of the way which their fathers walked in, obeying the commandments of the LORD; but they did not so. | 17 しかし彼らはそのさばきづかさにも従わず、かえってほかの神々を慕ってそれと姦淫を行い、それにひざまずき、先祖たちが主の命令に従って歩んだ道を、いちはやく離れ去って、そのようには行わなかった。 |
| 2:18 When Yahweh raised them up judges, then Yahweh was with the judge, and saved them out of the hand of their enemies all the days of the judge: for it grieved Yahweh because of their groaning by reason of those who oppressed them and troubled them. | 18 And when the LORD raised them up judges, then the LORD was with the judge, and delivered them out of the hand of their enemies all the days of the judge: for it repented the LORD because of their groanings by reason of them that oppressed them and vexed them. | 18 主が彼らのためにさばきづかさを起されたとき、そのさばきづかさの在世中、主はさばきづかさと共におられて、彼らを敵の手から救い出された。これは彼らが自分をしえたげ悩ました者のゆえに、うめき悲しんだので、主が彼らをあわれまれたからである。 |
| 2:19 But it happened, when the judge was dead, that they turned back, and dealt more corruptly than their fathers, in following other gods to serve them, and to bow down to them; they didn't cease from their doings, nor from their stubborn way. | 19 And it came to pass, when the judge was dead, that they returned, and corrupted themselves more than their fathers, in following other gods to serve them, and to bow down unto them; they ceased not from their own doings, nor from their stubborn way. | 19 しかしさばきづかさが死ぬと、彼らはそむいて、先祖たちにまさって悪を行い、ほかの神々に従ってそれに仕え、それにひざまずいてそのおこないをやめず、かたくなな道を離れなかった。 |
| 2:20 The anger of Yahweh was kindled against Israel; and he said, "Because this nation have transgressed my covenant which I commanded their fathers, and have not listened to my voice; | 20 And the anger of the LORD was hot against Israel; and he said, Because that this people hath transgressed my covenant which I commanded their fathers, and have not hearkened unto my voice; | 20 それで主はイスラエルに対し激しく怒って言われた、「この民はわたしがかつて先祖たちに命じた契約を犯し、わたしの命令に従わないゆえ、 |
| 2:21 I also will not henceforth drive out any from before them of the nations that Joshua left when he died; | 21 I also will not henceforth drive out any from before them of the nations which Joshua left when he died: | 21 わたしもまたヨシュアが死んだときに残しておいた国民を、この後、彼らの前から追い払わないであろう。 |
| 2:22 that by them I may prove Israel, whether they will keep the way of Yahweh to walk therein, as their fathers did keep it, or not." | 22 That through them I may prove Israel, whether they will keep the way of the LORD to walk therein, as their fathers did keep it, or not. | 22 これはイスラエルが、先祖たちの守ったように主の道を守ってそれに歩むかどうかをわたしが試みるためである」。 |
| 2:23 So Yahweh left those nations, without driving them out hastily; neither delivered he them into the hand of Joshua. | 23 Therefore the LORD left those nations, without driving them out hastily; neither delivered he them into the hand of Joshua. | 23 それゆえ主はこれらの国民を急いで追い払わずに残しておいて、ヨシュアの手にわたされなかったのである。 |

| 3:2 only that the generations of the children of Israel might know, to teach them war, at the least such as before knew nothing of it: | 2 Only that the generations of the children of Israel might know, to teach them war, at the least such as before knew nothing thereof; | 2 これはただイスラエルの代々の子孫、特にまだ戦争を知らないものに、それを教え知らせるためである。 |

| 3:4 They were left, to prove Israel by them, to know whether they would listen to the commandments of Yahweh, which he commanded their fathers by Moses. | 4 And they were to prove Israel by them, to know whether they would hearken unto the commandments of the LORD, which he commanded their fathers by the hand of Moses. | 4 これらをもってイスラエルを試み、主がモーセによって先祖たちに命じられた命令に、彼らが従うかどうかを知ろうとされたのである。 |
| 3:5 The children of Israel lived among the Canaanites, the Hittites, and the Amorites, and the Perizzites, and the Hivites, and the Jebusites: | 5 And the children of Israel dwelt among the Canaanites, Hittites, and Amorites, and Perizzites, and Hivites, and Jebusites: | 5 しかるにイスラエルの人々はカナンびと、ヘテびと、アモリびと、ペリジびと、ヒビびと、エブスびとのうちに住んで、 |
| 3:6 and they took their daughters to be their wives, and gave their own daughters to their sons and served their gods. | 6 And they took their daughters to be their wives, and gave their daughters to their sons, and served their gods. | 6 彼らの娘を妻にめとり、また自分たちの娘を彼らのむすこに与えて、彼らの神々に仕えた。 |
| 3:7 The children of Israel did that which was evil in the sight of Yahweh, and forgot Yahweh their God, and served the Baals and the Asheroth. | 7 And the children of Israel did evil in the sight of the LORD, and forgat the LORD their God, and served Baalim and the groves. | 7 こうしてイスラエルの人々は主の前に悪を行い、自分たちの神、主を忘れて、バアルおよびアシラに仕えた。 |
| 3:8 Therefore the anger of Yahweh was kindled against Israel, and he sold them into the hand of Cushan Rishathaim king of Mesopotamia: and the children of Israel served Cushan Rishathaim eight years. | 8 Therefore the anger of the LORD was hot against Israel, and he sold them into the hand of Chushanrishathaim king of Mesopotamia: and the children of Israel served Chushanrishathaim eight years. | 8 そこで主はイスラエルに対して激しく怒り、彼らをメソポタミヤの王クシャン・リシャタイムの手に売りわたされたので、イスラエルの人々は八年の間、クシャン・リシャタイムに仕えた。 |
| 3:9 When the children of Israel cried to Yahweh, Yahweh raised up a savior to the children of Israel, who saved them, even Othniel the son of Kenaz, Caleb's younger brother. | 9 And when the children of Israel cried unto the LORD, the LORD raised up a deliverer to the children of Israel, who delivered them, even Othniel the son of Kenaz, Caleb's younger brother. | 9 しかし、イスラエルの人々が主に呼ばわったとき、主はイスラエルの人々のために、ひとりの救助者を起して彼らを救われた。すなわちカレブの弟、ケナズの子オテニエルである。 |
| 3:10 The Spirit of Yahweh came on him, and he judged Israel; and he went out to war, and Yahweh delivered Cushan Rishathaim king of Mesopotamia into his hand: and his hand prevailed against Cushan Rishathaim. | 10 And the Spirit of the LORD came upon him, and he judged Israel, and went out to war: and the LORD delivered Chushanrishathaim king of Mesopotamia into his hand; and his hand prevailed against Chushanrishathaim. | 10 主の霊がオテニエルに臨んだので、彼はイスラエルをさばいた。彼が戦いに出ると、主はメソポタミヤの王クシャン・リシャタイムをその手にわたされたので、オテニエルの手はクシャン・リシャタイムに勝ち、 |

| 3:12 The children of Israel again did that which was evil in the sight of Yahweh: and Yahweh strengthened Eglon the king of Moab against Israel, because they had done that which was evil in the sight of Yahweh. | 12 And the children of Israel did evil again in the sight of the LORD: and the LORD strengthened Eglon the king of Moab against Israel, because they had done evil in the sight of the LORD. | 12 イスラエルの人々はまた主の前に悪をおこなった。すなわち彼らが主の前に悪をおこなったので、主はモアブの王エグロンを強めて、イスラエルに敵対させられた。 |
| 3:13 He gathered to him the children of Ammon and Amalek; and he went and struck Israel, and they possessed the city of palm trees. | 13 And he gathered unto him the children of Ammon and Amalek, and went and smote Israel, and possessed the city of palm trees. | 13 エグロンはアンモンおよびアマレクの人々を集め、きてイスラエルを撃ち、しゅろの町を占領した。 |
| 3:14 The children of Israel served Eglon the king of Moab eighteen years. | 14 So the children of Israel served Eglon the king of Moab eighteen years. | 14 こうしてイスラエルの人々は十八年の間モアブの王エグロンに仕えた。 |
| 3:15 But when the children of Israel cried to Yahweh, Yahweh raised them up a savior, Ehud the son of Gera, the Benjamite, a man left-handed. The children of Israel sent tribute by him to Eglon the king of Moab. | 15 But when the children of Israel cried unto the LORD, the LORD raised them up a deliverer, Ehud the son of Gera, a Benjamite, a man lefthanded: and by him the children of Israel sent a present unto Eglon the king of Moab. | 15 しかしイスラエルの人々が主に呼ばわったとき、主は彼らのために、ひとりの救助者を起された。すなわちベニヤミンびと、ゲラの子、左ききのエホデである。イスラエルの人々は彼によってモアブの王エグロンに、みつぎ物を送った。 |
| 3:16 Ehud made him a sword which had two edges, a cubit in length; and he girded it under his clothing on his right thigh. | 16 But Ehud made him a dagger which had two edges, of a cubit length; and he did gird it under his raiment upon his right thigh. | 16 エホデは長さ一キュビトのもろ刃のつるぎを作らせ、それを衣の下、右のももの上に帯びて、 |
| 3:17 He offered the tribute to Eglon king of Moab: now Eglon was a very fat man. | 17 And he brought the present unto Eglon king of Moab: and Eglon was a very fat man. | 17 モアブの王エグロンにみつぎ物をもってきた。エグロンは非常に肥えた人であった。 |
| 3:18 When he had made an end of offering the tribute, he sent away the people who bore the tribute. | 18 And when he had made an end to offer the present, he sent away the people that bare the present. | 18 エホデがみつぎ物をささげ終ったとき、彼はみつぎ物をになってきた民を帰らせ、 |
| 3:19 But he himself turned back from the quarries that were by Gilgal, and said, "I have a secret errand to you, king." The king said, "Keep silence!" All who stood by him went out from him. | 19 But he himself turned again from the quarries that were by Gilgal, and said, I have a secret errand unto thee, O king: who said, Keep silence. And all that stood by him went out from him. | 19 かれ自身はギルガルに近い石像のある所から引きかえして言った、「王よ、わたしはあなたに申しあげる機密をもっています」。そこで王は「さがっておれ」と言ったので、かたわらに立っている者は皆出て行った。 |
| 3:20 Ehud came to him; and he was sitting by himself alone in the cool upper room. Ehud said, "I have a message from God to you." He arose out of his seat. | 20 And Ehud came unto him; and he was sitting in a summer parlour, which he had for himself alone. And Ehud said, I have a message from God unto thee. And he arose out of his seat. | 20 エホデが王のところにはいって来ると、王はひとりで涼みの高殿に座していたので、エホデが「わたしは神の命によってあなたに申しあげることがあります」と言うと、王は座から立ちあがった。 |
| 3:21 Ehud put forth his left hand, and took the sword from his right thigh, and thrust it into his body: | 21 And Ehud put forth his left hand, and took the dagger from his right thigh, and thrust it into his belly: | 21 そのときエホデは左の手を伸ばし、右のももからつるぎをとって王の腹を刺した。 |
| 3:22 and the haft also went in after the blade; and the fat closed on the blade, for he didn't draw the sword out of his body; and it came out behind. | 22 And the haft also went in after the blade; and the fat closed upon the blade, so that he could not draw the dagger out of his belly; and the dirt came out. | 22 つるぎのつかも刃と共にはいったが、つるぎを腹から抜き出さなかったので、脂肪が刃をふさいだ。そして汚物が出た。 |
| 3:23 Then Ehud went forth into the porch, and shut the doors of the upper room on him, and locked them. | 23 Then Ehud went forth through the porch, and shut the doors of the parlour upon him, and locked them. | 23 エホデは廊下に出て、王のおる高殿の戸を閉じ、錠をおろした。 |
| 3:24 Now when he was gone out, his servants came; and they saw, and behold, the doors of the upper room were locked; and they said, "Surely he is covering his feet in the upper chamber." | 24 When he was gone out, his servants came; and when they saw that, behold, the doors of the parlour were locked, they said, Surely he covereth his feet in his summer chamber. | 24 彼が出た後、王のしもべどもがきて、高殿の戸に錠のおろされてあるのを見て、「王はきっと涼み殿のへやで足をおおっておられるのだ」と思った。 |
| 3:25 They waited until they were ashamed; and behold, he didn't open the doors of the upper room: therefore they took the key, and opened them, and behold, their lord was fallen down dead on the earth. | 25 And they tarried till they were ashamed: and, behold, he opened not the doors of the parlour; therefore they took a key, and opened them: and, behold, their lord was fallen down dead on the earth. | 25 しもべどもは長いあいだ待っていたが、王がなお高殿の戸を開かないので、心配してかぎをとって開いて見ると、王は床にたおれて死んでいた。 |
| 3:26 Ehud escaped while they waited, and passed beyond the quarries, and escaped to Seirah. | 26 And Ehud escaped while they tarried, and passed beyond the quarries, and escaped unto Seirath. | 26 エホデは彼らのためらうまに、のがれて石像のある所を過ぎ、セイラに逃げていった。 |
| 3:27 It happened, when he had come, that he blew a trumpet in the hill country of Ephraim; and the children of Israel went down with him from the hill country, and he before them. | 27 And it came to pass, when he was come, that he blew a trumpet in the mountain of Ephraim, and the children of Israel went down with him from the mount, and he before them. | 27 彼が行ってエフライムの山地にラッパを吹き鳴らしたので、イスラエルの人々は彼と共に山地から下ってエホデに従った。 |
| 3:28 He said to them, "Follow me; for Yahweh has delivered your enemies the Moabites into your hand." They followed him, and took the fords of the Jordan against the Moabites, and didn't allow any man to pass over. | 28 And he said unto them, Follow after me: for the LORD hath delivered your enemies the Moabites into your hand. And they went down after him, and took the fords of Jordan toward Moab, and suffered not a man to pass over. | 28 エホデは彼らに言った、「わたしについてきなさい。主はあなたがたの敵モアブびとをあなたがたの手にわたされます」。そこで彼らはエホデに従って下り、ヨルダンの渡し場をおさえ、モアブびとをひとりも渡らせなかった。 |
| 3:29 They struck of Moab at that time about ten thousand men, every lusty man, and every man of valor; and there escaped not a man. | 29 And they slew of Moab at that time about ten thousand men, all lusty, and all men of valour; and there escaped not a man. | 29 そのとき彼らはモアブびとおおよそ一万人を殺した。これはいずれも肥え太った勇士であって、ひとりも、のがれた者がなかった。 |
| 3:30 So Moab was subdued that day under the hand of Israel. The land had rest eighty years. | 30 So Moab was subdued that day under the hand of Israel. And the land had rest fourscore years. | 30 こうしてモアブはその日イスラエルの手に服し、国は八十年のあいだ太平であった。 |
| 3:31 After him was Shamgar the son of Anath, who struck of the Philistines six hundred men with an oxgoad: and he also saved Israel. | 31 And after him was Shamgar the son of Anath, which slew of the Philistines six hundred men with an ox goad: and he also delivered Israel. | 31 エホデの後、アナテの子シャムガルが起り、牛のむちをもってペリシテびと六百人を殺した。この人もまたイスラエルを救った。 |

| 4:6 She sent and called Barak the son of Abinoam out of Kedesh Naphtali, and said to him, "Hasn't Yahweh, the God of Israel, commanded, 'Go and draw to Mount Tabor, and take with you ten thousand men of the children of Naphtali and of the children of Zebulun? | 6 And she sent and called Barak the son of Abinoam out of Kedeshnaphtali, and said unto him, Hath not the LORD God of Israel commanded, saying, Go and draw toward mount Tabor, and take with thee ten thousand men of the children of Naphtali and of the children of Zebulun? | 6 デボラは人をつかわして、ナフタリのケデシからアビノアムの子バラクを招いて言った、「イスラエルの神、主はあなたに、こう命じられるではありませんか、『ナフタリの部族とゼブルンの部族から一万人を率い、行って、タボル山に陣をしけ。 |

| 4:8 Barak said to her, "If you will go with me, then I will go; but if you will not go with me, I will not go." | 8 And Barak said unto her, If thou wilt go with me, then I will go: but if thou wilt not go with me, then I will not go. | 8 バラクは彼女に言った、「あなたがもし一緒に行ってくだされば、わたしは行きます。しかし、一緒に行ってくださらないならば、行きません」。 |
| 4:9 She said, "I will surely go with you: nevertheless, the journey that you take shall not be for your honor; for Yahweh will sell Sisera into the hand of a woman." Deborah arose, and went with Barak to Kedesh. | 9 And she said, I will surely go with thee: notwithstanding the journey that thou takest shall not be for thine honour; for the LORD shall sell Sisera into the hand of a woman. And Deborah arose, and went with Barak to Kedesh. | 9 デボラは言った、「必ずあなたと一緒に行きます。しかしあなたは今行く道では誉を得ないでしょう。主はシセラを女の手にわたされるからです」。デボラは立ってバラクと一緒にケデシに行った。 |

| 4:14 Deborah said to Barak, "Go; for this is the day in which Yahweh has delivered Sisera into your hand. Hasn't Yahweh gone out before you?" So Barak went down from Mount Tabor, and ten thousand men after him. | 14 And Deborah said unto Barak, Up; for this is the day in which the LORD hath delivered Sisera into thine hand: is not the LORD gone out before thee?

| 4:17 However Sisera fled away on his feet to the tent of Jael the wife of Heber the Kenite; for there was peace between Jabin the king of Hazor and the house of Heber the Kenite. | 17 Howbeit Sisera fled away on his feet to the tent of Jael the wife of Heber the Kenite: for there was peace between Jabin the king of Hazor and the house of Heber the Kenite. | 17 しかしシセラは徒歩で逃げ去って、ケニびとヘベルの妻ヤエルの天幕に行った。ハゾルの王ヤビンとケニびとヘベルの家とは互にむつまじかったからである。 |
| 4:18 Jael went out to meet Sisera, and said to him, "Turn in, my lord, turn in to me; don't be afraid." He came in to her into the tent, and she covered him with a rug. | 18 And Jael went out to meet Sisera, and said unto him, Turn in, my lord, turn in to me; fear not. And when he had turned in unto her into the tent, she covered him with a mantle. | 18 ヤエルは出てきてシセラを迎え、彼に言った、「おはいりください。主よ、どうぞうちへおはいりください。恐れるにはおよびません」。シセラが天幕にはいったので、ヤエルは毛布をもって彼をおおった。 |

She opened a bottle of milk, and gave him drink, and covered him. | 19 And he said unto her, Give me, I pray thee, a little water to drink; for I am thirsty.

| 4:20 He said to her, "Stand in the door of the tent, and it shall be, when any man comes and inquires of you, and says, 'Is there any man here?' that you shall say, 'No.'" | 20 Again he said unto her, Stand in the door of the tent, and it shall be, when any man doth come and enquire of thee, and say, Is there any man here? that thou shalt say, No. | 20 シセラはまたヤエルに言った、「天幕の入口に立っていてください。もし人がきて、あなたに『だれか、ここにおりますか』と問うならば『おりません』と答えてください」。 |

So he died. | 21 しかし彼が疲れて熟睡したとき、ヘベルの妻ヤエルは天幕のくぎを取り、手に槌を携えて彼に忍び寄り、こめかみにくぎを打ち込んで地に刺し通したので、彼は息絶えて死んだ。 |
| 4:22 Behold, as Barak pursued Sisera, Jael came out to meet him, and said to him, "Come, and I will show you the man whom you seek." He came to her; and behold, Sisera lay dead, and the tent peg was in his temples. | 22 And, behold, as Barak pursued Sisera, Jael came out to meet him, and said unto him, Come, and I will shew thee the man whom thou seekest. And when he came into her tent, behold, Sisera lay dead, and the nail was in his temples. | 22 バラクがシセラを追ってきたとき、ヤエルは彼を出迎えて言った、「おいでなさい。あなたが求めている人をお見せしましょう」。彼がヤエルの天幕にはいって見ると、シセラはこめかみにくぎを打たれて倒れて死んでいた。 |
| 4:23 So God subdued on that day Jabin the king of Canaan before the children of Israel. | 23 So God subdued on that day Jabin the king of Canaan before the children of Israel. | 23 こうしてその日、神はカナンの王ヤビンをイスラエルの人々の前に撃ち敗られた。 |

| 5:11 Far from the noise of archers, in the places of drawing water, there they will rehearse the righteous acts of Yahweh, Even the righteous acts of his rule in Israel."Then the people of Yahweh went down to the gates. | 11 They that are delivered from the noise of archers in the places of drawing water, there shall they rehearse the righteous acts of the LORD, even the righteous acts toward the inhabitants of his villages in Israel: then shall the people of the LORD go down to the gates. | 11 楽人の調べは水くむ所に聞える。かれらはそこで主の救を唱え、イスラエルの農民の救を唱えている。その時、主の民は門に下って行った。 |
| 5:12 'Awake, awake, Deborah! Awake, awake, utter a song!Arise, Barak, and lead away your captives, you son of Abinoam.' | 12 Awake, awake, Deborah: awake, awake, utter a song: arise, Barak, and lead thy captivity captive, thou son of Abinoam. | 12 起きよ、起きよ、デボラ。起きよ、起きよ、歌をうたえ。立てよ、バラク、とりこを捕えよ、アビノアムの子よ。 |
| 5:13 "Then a remnant of the nobles and the people came down. Yahweh came down for me against the mighty. | 13 Then he made him that remaineth have dominion over the nobles among the people: the LORD made me have dominion over the mighty. | 13 その時、残った者は尊い者のように下って行き、主の民は勇士のように下って行った。 |
| 5:14 Those whose root is in Amalek came out of Ephraim, after you, Benjamin, among your peoples. Governors come down out of Machir. Those who handle the marshal's staff came out of Zebulun. | 14 Out of Ephraim was there a root of them against Amalek; after thee, Benjamin, among thy people; out of Machir came down governors, and out of Zebulun they that handle the pen of the writer. | 14 彼らはエフライムから出て谷に進み、兄弟ベニヤミンはあなたの民のうちにある。マキルからはつかさたちが下って行き、ゼブルンからは指揮を執るものが下って行った。 |
| 5:15 The princes of Issachar were with Deborah. As was Issachar, so was Barak. They rushed into the valley at his feet.By the watercourses of Reuben, there were great resolves of heart. | 15 And the princes of Issachar were with Deborah; even Issachar, and also Barak: he was sent on foot into the valley. For the divisions of Reuben there were great thoughts of heart. | 15 イッサカルの君たちはデボラと共におり、イッサカルはバラクと同じく、直ちにそのあとについて谷に突進した。しかしルベンの氏族は大いに思案した。 |
| 5:16 Why did you sit among the sheepfolds, To hear the whistling for the flocks?At the watercourses of Reuben There were great searchings of heart. | 16 Why abodest thou among the sheepfolds, to hear the bleatings of the flocks? For the divisions of Reuben there were great searchings of heart. | 16 なぜ、あなたは、おりの間にとどまって、羊の群れに笛吹くのを聞いているのか。ルベンの氏族は大いに思案した。 |
| 5:17 Gilead lived beyond the Jordan. Why did Dan remain in ships? Asher sat still at the haven of the sea, and lived by his creeks. | 17 Gilead abode beyond Jordan: and why did Dan remain in ships? Asher continued on the sea shore, and abode in his breaches. | 17 ギレアデはヨルダンの向こうにとどまっていた。なぜ、ダンは舟のかたわらにとどまったか。アセルは浜べに座し、その波止場のかたわらにとどまっていた。 |
| 5:18 Zebulun was a people that jeopardized their lives to the deaths; Naphtali also, on the high places of the field. | 18 Zebulun and Naphtali were a people that jeoparded their lives unto the death in the high places of the field. | 18 ゼブルンは命をすてて、死を恐れぬ民である。野の高い所におるナフタリもまたそうであった。 |
| 5:19 "The kings came and fought, then the kings of Canaan fought at Taanach by the waters of Megiddo.They took no plunder of silver. | 19 The kings came and fought, then fought the kings of Canaan in Taanach by the waters of Megiddo; they took no gain of money. | 19 もろもろの王たちはきて戦った。その時カナンの王たちは、メギドの水のほとりのタアナクで戦った。彼らは一片の銀をも獲なかった。 |
| 5:20 From the sky the stars fought. From their courses, they fought against Sisera. | 20 They fought from heaven; the stars in their courses fought against Sisera. | 20 もろもろの星は天より戦い、その軌道をはなれてシセラと戦った。 |
| 5:21 The river Kishon swept them away, that ancient river, the river Kishon. My soul, march on with strength. | 21 The river of Kishon swept them away, that ancient river, the river Kishon. O my soul, thou hast trodden down strength. | 21 キションの川は彼らを押し流した、激しく流れる川、キションの川。わが魂よ、勇ましく進め。 |
| 5:22 Then the horse hoofs stamped because of the prancings, the prancings of their strong ones. | 22 Then were the horsehoofs broken by the means of the pransings, the pransings of their mighty ones. | 22 その時、軍馬ははせ駆けり、馬のひずめは地を踏みならした。 |
| 5:23 'Curse Meroz,' said the angel of Yahweh. 'Curse bitterly its inhabitants,because they didn't come to help Yahweh, to help Yahweh against the mighty.' | 23 Curse ye Meroz, said the angel of the LORD, curse ye bitterly the inhabitants thereof; because they came not to the help of the LORD, to the help of the LORD against the mighty. | 23 主の使は言った、『メロズをのろえ、激しくその民をのろえ、彼らはきて主を助けず、主を助けて勇士を攻めなかったからである』。 |
| 5:24 "Jael shall be blessed above women, the wife of Heber the Kenite; blessed shall she be above women in the tent. | 24 Blessed above women shall Jael the wife of Heber the Kenite be, blessed shall she be above women in the tent. | 24 ケニびとヘベルの妻ヤエルは、女のうちの最も恵まれた者、天幕に住む女のうち最も恵まれた者である。 |
| 5:25 He asked for water. She gave him milk. She brought him butter in a lordly dish. | 25 He asked water, and she gave him milk; she brought forth butter in a lordly dish. | 25 シセラが水を求めると、ヤエルは乳を与えた。すなわち貴重な鉢に凝乳を盛ってささげた。 |
| 5:26 She put her hand to the tent peg, and her right hand to the workmen's hammer. With the hammer she struck Sisera. She struck through his head.Yes, she pierced and struck through his temples. | 26 She put her hand to the nail, and her right hand to the workmen's hammer; and with the hammer she smote Sisera, she smote off his head, when she had pierced and stricken through his temples. | 26 ヤエルはくぎに手をかけ、右手に重い槌をとって、シセラを打ち、その頭を砕き、粉々にして、そのこめかみを打ち貫いた。 |
| 5:27 At her feet he bowed, he fell, he lay. At her feet he bowed, he fell.Where he bowed, there he fell down dead. | 27 At her feet he bowed, he fell, he lay down: at her feet he bowed, he fell: where he bowed, there he fell down dead. | 27 シセラはヤエルの足もとにかがんで倒れ伏し、その足もとにかがんで倒れ、そのかがんだ所に倒れて死んだ。 |
| 5:28 "Through the window she looked out, and cried: Sisera's mother looked through the lattice.'Why is his chariot so long in coming? Why do the wheels of his chariots wait?' | 28 The mother of Sisera looked out at a window, and cried through the lattice, Why is his chariot so long in coming? why tarry the wheels of his chariots? | 28 シセラの母は窓からながめ、格子窓から叫んで言った、『どうして彼の車の来るのがおそいのか、どうして彼の車の歩みがはかどらないのか』。 |
| 5:29 Her wise ladies answered her, Yes, she returned answer to herself, | 29 Her wise ladies answered her, yea, she returned answer to herself, | 29 その侍女たちの賢い者は答え、母またみずからおのれに答えて言った、 |
| 5:30 'Have they not found, have they not divided the spoil?

| 6:1 The children of Israel did that which was evil in the sight of Yahweh: and Yahweh delivered them into the hand of Midian seven years. | 1 And the children of Israel did evil in the sight of the LORD: and the LORD delivered them into the hand of Midian seven years. | 1 イスラエルの人々はまた主の前に悪をおこなったので、主は彼らを七年の間ミデアンびとの手にわたされた。 |
| 6:2 The hand of Midian prevailed against Israel; and because of Midian the children of Israel made them the dens which are in the mountains, and the caves, and the strongholds. | 2 And the hand of Midian prevailed against Israel: and because of the Midianites the children of Israel made them the dens which are in the mountains, and caves, and strong holds. | 2 ミデアンびとの手はイスラエルに勝った。イスラエルの人々はミデアンびとのゆえに、山にある岩屋と、ほら穴と要害とを自分たちのために造った。 |
| 6:3 So it was, when Israel had sown, that the Midianites came up, and the Amalekites, and the children of the east; they came up against them; | 3 And so it was, when Israel had sown, that the Midianites came up, and the Amalekites, and the children of the east, even they came up against them; | 3 イスラエルびとが種をまいた時には、いつもミデアンびと、アマレクびとおよび東方の民が上ってきてイスラエルびとを襲い、 |
| 6:4 and they encamped against them, and destroyed the increase of the earth, until you come to Gaza, and left no sustenance in Israel, neither sheep, nor ox, nor donkey. | 4 And they encamped against them, and destroyed the increase of the earth, till thou come unto Gaza, and left no sustenance for Israel, neither sheep, nor ox, nor ass. | 4 イスラエルびとに向かって陣を取り、地の産物を荒してガザの附近にまで及び、イスラエルのうちに命をつなぐべき物を残さず、羊も牛もろばも残さなかった。 |
| 6:5 For they came up with their livestock and their tents; they came in as locusts for multitude; both they and their camels were without number: and they came into the land to destroy it. | 5 For they came up with their cattle and their tents, and they came as grasshoppers for multitude; for both they and their camels were without number: and they entered into the land to destroy it. | 5 彼らが家畜と天幕を携えて、いなごのように多く上ってきたからである。すなわち彼らとそのらくだは無数であって、彼らは国を荒すためにはいってきたのであった。 |
| 6:6 Israel was brought very low because of Midian; and the children of Israel cried to Yahweh. | 6 And Israel was greatly impoverished because of the Midianites; and the children of Israel cried unto the LORD. | 6 こうしてイスラエルはミデアンびとのために非常に衰え、イスラエルの人々は主に呼ばわった。 |
| 6:7 It happened, when the children of Israel cried to Yahweh because of Midian, | 7 And it came to pass, when the children of Israel cried unto the LORD because of the Midianites, | 7 イスラエルの人々がミデアンびとのゆえに、主に呼ばわったとき、 |
| 6:8 that Yahweh sent a prophet to the children of Israel: and he said to them, "Thus says Yahweh, the God of Israel, 'I brought you up from Egypt, and brought you forth out of the house of bondage; | 8 That the LORD sent a prophet unto the children of Israel, which said unto them, Thus saith the LORD God of Israel, I brought you up from Egypt, and brought you forth out of the house of bondage; | 8 主はひとりの預言者をイスラエルの人々につかわして彼らに言われた、「イスラエルの神、主はこう言われる、『わたしはかつてあなたがたをエジプトから導き上り、あなたがたを奴隷の家から携え出し、 |
| 6:9 and I delivered you out of the hand of the Egyptians, and out of the hand of all who oppressed you, and drove them out from before you, and gave you their land; | 9 And I delivered you out of the hand of the Egyptians, and out of the hand of all that oppressed you, and drave them out from before you, and gave you their land; | 9 エジプトびとの手およびすべてあなたがたをしえたげる者の手から救い出し、あなたがたの前から彼らを追い払って、その国をあなたがたに与えた。 |
| 6:10 and I said to you, "I am Yahweh your God; you shall not fear the gods of the Amorites, in whose land you dwell." But you have not listened to my voice.'" | 10 And I said unto you, I am the LORD your God; fear not the gods of the Amorites, in whose land ye dwell: but ye have not obeyed my voice. | 10 そしてあなたがたに言った、「わたしはあなたがたの神、主である。あなたがたが住んでいる国のアモリびとの神々を恐れてはならない」と。しかし、あなたがたはわたしの言葉に従わなかった』」。 |
| 6:11 The angel of Yahweh came, and sat under the oak which was in Ophrah, that pertained to Joash the Abiezrite: and his son Gideon was beating out wheat in the winepress, to hide it from the Midianites. | 11 And there came an angel of the LORD, and sat under an oak which was in Ophrah, that pertained unto Joash the Abiezrite: and his son Gideon threshed wheat by the winepress, to hide it from the Midianites. | 11 さて主の使がきて、アビエゼルびとヨアシに属するオフラにあるテレビンの木の下に座した。時にヨアシの子ギデオンはミデアンびとの目を避けるために酒ぶねの中で麦を打っていたが、 |
| 6:12 The angel of Yahweh appeared to him, and said to him, "Yahweh is with you, you mighty man of valor!" | 12 And the angel of the LORD appeared unto him, and said unto him, The LORD is with thee, thou mighty man of valour. | 12 主の使は彼に現れて言った、「大勇士よ、主はあなたと共におられます」。 |
| 6:13 Gideon said to him, "Oh, my lord, if Yahweh is with us, why then has all this happened to us? Where are all his wondrous works which our fathers told us of, saying, 'Didn't Yahweh bring us up from Egypt?' But now Yahweh has cast us off, and delivered us into the hand of Midian." | 13 And Gideon said unto him, Oh my Lord, if the LORD be with us, why then is all this befallen us? and where be all his miracles which our fathers told us of, saying, Did not the LORD bring us up from Egypt? but now the LORD hath forsaken us, and delivered us into the hands of the Midianites. | 13 ギデオンは言った、「ああ、君よ、主がわたしたちと共におられるならば、どうしてこれらの事がわたしたちに臨んだのでしょう。わたしたちの先祖が『主はわれわれをエジプトから導き上られたではないか』といって、わたしたちに告げたそのすべての不思議なみわざはどこにありますか。今、主はわたしたちを捨てて、ミデアンびとの手にわたされました」。 |
| 6:14 Yahweh looked at him, and said, "Go in this your might, and save Israel from the hand of Midian. Haven't I sent you?" | 14 And the LORD looked upon him, and said, Go in this thy might, and thou shalt save Israel from the hand of the Midianites: have not I sent thee? | 14 主はふり向いて彼に言われた、「あなたはこのあなたの力をもって行って、ミデアンびとの手からイスラエルを救い出しなさい。わたしがあなたをつかわすのではありませんか」。 |
| 6:15 He said to him, "O Lord, how shall I save Israel? Behold, my family is the poorest in Manasseh, and I am the least in my father's house." | 15 And he said unto him, Oh my Lord, wherewith shall I save Israel? behold, my family is poor in Manasseh, and I am the least in my father's house. | 15 ギデオンは主に言った、「ああ主よ、わたしはどうしてイスラエルを救うことができましょうか。わたしの氏族はマナセのうちで最も弱いものです。わたしはまたわたしの父の家族のうちで最も小さいものです」。 |
| 6:16 Yahweh said to him, "Surely I will be with you, and you shall strike the Midianites as one man." | 16 And the LORD said unto him, Surely I will be with thee, and thou shalt smite the Midianites as one man. | 16 主は言われた、「しかし、わたしがあなたと共におるから、ひとりを撃つようにミデアンびとを撃つことができるでしょう」。 |
| 6:17 He said to him, "If now I have found favor in your sight, then show me a sign that it is you who talk with me. | 17 And he said unto him, If now I have found grace in thy sight, then shew me a sign that thou talkest with me. | 17 ギデオンはまた主に言った、「わたしがもしあなたの前に恵みを得ていますならば、どうぞ、わたしと語るのがあなたであるというしるしを見せてください。 |
| 6:18 Please don't go away, until I come to you, and bring out my present, and lay it before you." He said, "I will wait until you come back." | 18 Depart not hence, I pray thee, until I come unto thee, and bring forth my present, and set it before thee. And he said, I will tarry until thou come again. | 18 どうぞ、わたしが供え物を携えてあなたのもとにもどってきて、あなたの前に供えるまで、ここを去らないでください」。主は言われた、「わたしはあなたがもどって来るまで待ちましょう」。 |
| 6:19 Gideon went in, and prepared a young goat, and unleavened cakes of an ephah of meal. He put the meat in a basket and he put the broth in a pot, and brought it out to him under the oak, and presented it. | 19 And Gideon went in, and made ready a kid, and unleavened cakes of an ephah of flour: the flesh he put in a basket, and he put the broth in a pot, and brought it out unto him under the oak, and presented it. | 19 そこでギデオンは自分の家に行って、やぎの子を整え、一エパの粉で種入れぬパンをつくり、肉をかごに入れ、あつものをつぼに盛り、テレビンの木の下におる彼のもとに持ってきて、それを供えた。 |
| 6:20 The angel of God said to him, "Take the meat and the unleavened cakes, and lay them on this rock, and pour out the broth." He did so. | 20 And the angel of God said unto him, Take the flesh and the unleavened cakes, and lay them upon this rock, and pour out the broth. And he did so. | 20 神の使は彼に言った、「肉と種入れぬパンをとって、この岩の上に置き、それにあつものを注ぎなさい」。彼はそのようにした。 |
| 6:21 Then the angel of Yahweh stretched out the end of the staff that was in his hand, and touched the meat and the unleavened cakes; and fire went up out of the rock, and consumed the meat and the unleavened cakes; and the angel of Yahweh departed out of his sight. | 21 Then the angel of the LORD put forth the end of the staff that was in his hand, and touched the flesh and the unleavened cakes; and there rose up fire out of the rock, and consumed the flesh and the unleavened cakes. Then the angel of the LORD departed out of his sight. | 21 すると主の使が手にもっていたつえの先を出して、肉と種入れぬパンに触れると、岩から火が燃えあがって、肉と種入れぬパンとを焼きつくした。そして主の使は去って見えなくなった。 |
| 6:22 Gideon saw that he was the angel of Yahweh; and Gideon said, "Alas, Lord Yahweh! Because I have seen the angel of Yahweh face to face!" | 22 And when Gideon perceived that he was an angel of the LORD, Gideon said, Alas, O LORD God! for because I have seen an angel of the LORD face to face. | 22 ギデオンはその人が主の使であったことをさとって言った、「ああ主なる神よ、どうなることでしょう。わたしは顔をあわせて主の使を見たのですから」。 |
| 6:23 Yahweh said to him, "Peace be to you! Don't be afraid. You shall not die." | 23 And the LORD said unto him, Peace be unto thee; fear not: thou shalt not die. | 23 主は彼に言われた、「安心せよ、恐れるな。あなたは死ぬことはない」。 |
| 6:24 Then Gideon built an altar there to Yahweh, and called it "Yahweh is Peace." To this day it is still in Ophrah of the Abiezrites. | 24 Then Gideon built an altar there unto the LORD, and called it Jehovahshalom: unto this day it is yet in Ophrah of the Abiezrites. | 24 そこでギデオンは主のために祭壇をそこに築いて、それを「主は平安」と名づけた。これは今日までアビエゼルびとのオフラにある。 |
| 6:25 It happened the same night, that Yahweh said to him, "Take your father's bull, even the second bull seven years old, and throw down the altar of Baal that your father has, and cut down the Asherah that is by it; | 25 And it came to pass the same night, that the LORD said unto him, Take thy father's young bullock, even the second bullock of seven years old, and throw down the altar of Baal that thy father hath, and cut down the grove that is by it: | 25 その夜、主はギデオンに言われた、「あなたの父の雄牛と七歳の第二の雄牛とを取り、あなたの父のもっているバアルの祭壇を打ちこわし、そのかたわらにあるアシラ像を切り倒し、 |
| 6:26 and build an altar to Yahweh your God on the top of this stronghold, in the orderly manner, and take the second bull, and offer a burnt offering with the wood of the Asherah which you shall cut down." | 26 And build an altar unto the LORD thy God upon the top of this rock, in the ordered place, and take the second bullock, and offer a burnt sacrifice with the wood of the grove which thou shalt cut down. | 26 あなたの神、主のために、このとりでの頂に、石を並べて祭壇を築き、第二の雄牛を取り、あなたが切り倒したアシラの木をもって燔祭をささげなさい」。 |
| 6:27 Then Gideon took ten men of his servants, and did as Yahweh had spoken to him: and it happened, because he feared his father's household and the men of the city, so that he could not do it by day, that he did it by night. | 27 Then Gideon took ten men of his servants, and did as the LORD had said unto him: and so it was, because he feared his father's household, and the men of the city, that he could not do it by day, that he did it by night. | 27 ギデオンはしもべ十人を連れて、主が言われたとおりにおこなった。ただし彼は父の家族のもの、および町の人々を恐れたので、昼それを行うことができず、夜それを行った。 |
| 6:28 When the men of the city arose early in the morning, behold, the altar of Baal was broken down, and the Asherah was cut down that was by it, and the second bull was offered on the altar that was built. | 28 And when the men of the city arose early in the morning, behold, the altar of Baal was cast down, and the grove was cut down that was by it, and the second bullock was offered upon the altar that was built. | 28 町の人々が朝早く起きて見ると、バアルの祭壇は打ちこわされ、そのかたわらのアシラ像は切り倒され、新たに築いた祭壇の上に、第二の雄牛がささげられてあった。 |
| 6:29 They said one to another, "Who has done this thing?" When they inquired and asked, they said, "Gideon the son of Joash has done this thing." | 29 And they said one to another, Who hath done this thing? And when they enquired and asked, they said, Gideon the son of Joash hath done this thing. | 29 そこで彼らは互に「これはだれのしわざか」と言って問い尋ねたすえ、「これはヨアシの子ギデオンのしわざだ」と言った。 |
| 6:30 Then the men of the city said to Joash, "Bring out your son, that he may die, because he has broken down the altar of Baal, and because he has cut down the Asherah that was by it." | 30 Then the men of the city said unto Joash, Bring out thy son, that he may die: because he hath cast down the altar of Baal, and because he hath cut down the grove that was by it. | 30 町の人々はヨアシに言った、「あなたのむすこを引き出して殺しなさい。彼はバアルの祭壇を打ちこわしそのかたわらにあったアシラ像を切り倒したのです」。 |
| 6:31 Joash said to all who stood against him, "Will you contend for Baal? Or will you save him? He who will contend for him, let him be put to death while it is yet morning. If he is a god, let him contend for himself, because someone has broken down his altar." | 31 And Joash said unto all that stood against him, Will ye plead for Baal? will ye save him? he that will plead for him, let him be put to death whilst it is yet morning: if he be a god, let him plead for himself, because one hath cast down his altar. | 31 しかしヨアシは自分に向かって立っているすべての者に言った、「あなたがたはバアルのために言い争うのですか。あるいは彼を弁護しようとなさるのですか。バアルのために言い争う者は、あすの朝までに殺されるでしょう。バアルがもし神であるならば、自分の祭壇が打ちこわされたのだから、彼みずから言い争うべきです」。 |
| 6:32 Therefore on that day he named him Jerub-Baal, saying, "Let Baal contend against him, because he has broken down his altar." | 32 Therefore on that day he called him Jerubbaal, saying, Let Baal plead against him, because he hath thrown down his altar. | 32 そこでその日、「自分の祭壇が打ちこわされたのだから、バアルみずからその人と言い争うべきです」と言ったので、ギデオンはエルバアルと呼ばれた。 |
| 6:33 Then all the Midianites and the Amalekites and the children of the east assembled themselves together; and they passed over, and encamped in the valley of Jezreel. | 33 Then all the Midianites and the Amalekites and the children of the east were gathered together, and went over, and pitched in the valley of Jezreel. | 33 時にミデアンびと、アマレクびとおよび東方の民がみな集まってヨルダン川を渡り、エズレルの谷に陣を取ったが、 |
| 6:34 But the Spirit of Yahweh came on Gideon; and he blew a trumpet; and Abiezer was gathered together after him. | 34 But the Spirit of the LORD came upon Gideon, and he blew a trumpet; and Abiezer was gathered after him. | 34 主の霊がギデオンに臨み、ギデオンがラッパを吹いたので、アビエゼルびとは集まって彼に従った。 |
| 6:35 He sent messengers throughout all Manasseh; and they also were gathered together after him: and he sent messengers to Asher, and to Zebulun, and to Naphtali; and they came up to meet them. | 35 And he sent messengers throughout all Manasseh; who also was gathered after him: and he sent messengers unto Asher, and unto Zebulun, and unto Naphtali; and they came up to meet them. | 35 次に彼があまねくマナセに使者をつかわしたので、マナセびともまた集まって彼に従った。彼がまたアセル、ゼブルンおよびナフタリに使者をつかわすと、その人々も上って彼を迎えた。 |
| 6:36 Gideon said to God, "If you will save Israel by my hand, as you have spoken, | 36 And Gideon said unto God, If thou wilt save Israel by mine hand, as thou hast said, | 36 ギデオンは神に言った、「あなたがかつて言われたように、わたしの手によってイスラエルを救おうとされるならば、 |
| 6:37 behold, I will put a fleece of wool on the threshing floor; if there be dew on the fleece only, and it be dry on all the ground, then shall I know that you will save Israel by my hand, as you have spoken." | 37 Behold, I will put a fleece of wool in the floor; and if the dew be on the fleece only, and it be dry upon all the earth beside, then shall I know that thou wilt save Israel by mine hand, as thou hast said. | 37 わたしは羊の毛一頭分を打ち場に置きますから、露がその羊の毛の上にだけあって、地がすべてかわいているようにしてください。これによってわたしは、あなたがかつて言われたように、わたしの手によってイスラエルをお救いになることを知るでしょう」。 |
| 6:38 It was so; for he rose up early on the next day, and pressed the fleece together, and wrung the dew out of the fleece, a bowl full of water. | 38 And it was so: for he rose up early on the morrow, and thrust the fleece together, and wringed the dew out of the fleece, a bowl full of water. | 38 すなわちそのようになった。彼が翌朝早く起きて、羊の毛をかき寄せ、その毛から露を絞ると、鉢に満ちるほどの水が出た。 |
| 6:39 Gideon said to God, "Don't let your anger be kindled against me, and I will speak but this once. Please let me make a trial just this once with the fleece. Let it now be dry only on the fleece, and on all the ground let there be dew." | 39 And Gideon said unto God, Let not thine anger be hot against me, and I will speak but this once: let me prove, I pray thee, but this once with the fleece; let it now be dry only upon the fleece, and upon all the ground let there be dew. | 39 ギデオンは神に言った、「わたしをお怒りにならないように願います。わたしにもう一度だけ言わせてください。どうぞ、もう一度だけ羊の毛をもってためさせてください。どうぞ、羊の毛だけをかわかして、地にはことごとく露があるようにしてください」。 |
| 6:40 God did so that night: for it was dry on the fleece only, and there was dew on all the ground. | 40 And God did so that night: for it was dry upon the fleece only, and there was dew on all the ground. | 40 神はその夜、そうされた。すなわち羊の毛だけかわいて、地にはすべて露があった。 |

| 7:1 Then Jerubbaal, who is Gideon, and all the people who were with him, rose up early, and encamped beside the spring of Harod: and the camp of Midian was on the north side of them, by the hill of Moreh, in the valley. | 1 Then Jerubbaal, who is Gideon, and all the people that were with him, rose up early, and pitched beside the well of Harod: so that the host of the Midianites were on the north side of them, by the hill of Moreh, in the valley. | 1 さてエルバアルと呼ばれるギデオンおよび彼と共にいたすべての民は朝早く起き、ハロデの泉のほとりに陣を取った。ミデアンびとの陣は彼らの北の方にあり、モレの丘に沿って谷の中にあった。 |
| 7:2 Yahweh said to Gideon, "The people who are with you are too many for me to give the Midianites into their hand, lest Israel vaunt themselves against me, saying, 'My own hand has saved me.' | 2 And the LORD said unto Gideon, The people that are with thee are too many for me to give the Midianites into their hands, lest Israel vaunt themselves against me, saying, Mine own hand hath saved me. | 2 主はギデオンに言われた、「あなたと共におる民はあまりに多い。ゆえにわたしは彼らの手にミデアンびとをわたさない。おそらくイスラエルはわたしに向かってみずから誇り、『わたしは自身の手で自分を救ったのだ』と言うであろう。 |
| 7:3 Now therefore proclaim in the ears of the people, saying, 'Whoever is fearful and trembling, let him return and depart from Mount Gilead.'" Twenty-two thousand of the people returned, and ten thousand remained. | 3 Now therefore go to, proclaim in the ears of the people, saying, Whosoever is fearful and afraid, let him return and depart early from mount Gilead. And there returned of the people twenty and two thousand; and there remained ten thousand. | 3 それゆえ、民の耳に触れ示して、『だれでも恐れおののく者は帰れ』と言いなさい」。こうしてギデオンは彼らを試みたので、民のうち帰った者は二万二千人あり、残った者は一万人であった。 |
| 7:4 Yahweh said to Gideon, "The people are still too many. Bring them down to the water, and I will test them for you there. It shall be, that of whom I tell you, 'This shall go with you,' the same shall go with you; and of whoever I tell you, 'This shall not go with you,' the same shall not go." | 4 And the LORD said unto Gideon, The people are yet too many; bring them down unto the water, and I will try them for thee there: and it shall be, that of whom I say unto thee, This shall go with thee, the same shall go with thee; and of whomsoever I say unto thee, This shall not go with thee, the same shall not go. | 4 主はまたギデオンに言われた、「民はまだ多い。彼らを導いて水ぎわに下りなさい。わたしはそこで、あなたのために彼らを試みよう。わたしがあなたに告げて『この人はあなたと共に行くべきだ』と言う者は、あなたと共に行くべきである。またわたしがあなたに告げて『この人はあなたと共に行ってはならない』と言う者は、だれも行ってはならない」。 |
| 7:5 So he brought down the people to the water; and Yahweh said to Gideon, "Everyone who laps of the water with his tongue, like a dog laps, you shall set him by himself; likewise everyone who bows down on his knees to drink." | 5 So he brought down the people unto the water: and the LORD said unto Gideon, Every one that lappeth of the water with his tongue, as a dog lappeth, him shalt thou set by himself; likewise every one that boweth down upon his knees to drink. | 5 そこでギデオンが民を導いて水ぎわに下ると、主は彼に言われた、「すべて犬のなめるように舌をもって水をなめる者はそれを別にしておきなさい。またすべてひざを折り、かがんで水を飲む者もそうしなさい」。 |
| 7:6 The number of those who lapped, putting their hand to their mouth, was three hundred men; but all the rest of the people bowed down on their knees to drink water. | 6 And the number of them that lapped, putting their hand to their mouth, were three hundred men: but all the rest of the people bowed down upon their knees to drink water. | 6 そして手を口にあてて水をなめた者の数は三百人であった。残りの民はみなひざを折り、かがんで水を飲んだ。 |
| 7:7 Yahweh said to Gideon, "By the three hundred men who lapped will I save you, and deliver the Midianites into your hand. Let all the other people go, each to his own place." | 7 And the LORD said unto Gideon, By the three hundred men that lapped will I save you, and deliver the Midianites into thine hand: and let all the other people go every man unto his place. | 7 主はギデオンに言われた、「わたしは水をなめた三百人の者をもって、あなたがたを救い、ミデアンびとをあなたの手にわたそう。残りの民はおのおのその家に帰らせなさい」。 |
| 7:8 So the people took food in their hand, and their trumpets; and he sent all the men of Israel every man to his tent, but retained the three hundred men: and the camp of Midian was beneath him in the valley. | 8 So the people took victuals in their hand, and their trumpets: and he sent all the rest of Israel every man unto his tent, and retained those three hundred men: and the host of Midian was beneath him in the valley. | 8 そこで彼はかの三百人を留めおき、残りのイスラエルびとの手から、つぼとラッパを取り、民をおのおのその天幕に帰らせた。時にミデアンびとの陣は下の谷の中にあった。 |
| 7:9 It happened the same night, that Yahweh said to him, "Arise, go down into the camp; for I have delivered it into your hand. | 9 And it came to pass the same night, that the LORD said unto him, Arise, get thee down unto the host; for I have delivered it into thine hand. | 9 その夜、主はギデオンに言われた、「立てよ、下っていって敵陣に攻め入れ。わたしはそれをあなたの手にわたす。 |
| 7:10 But if you are afraid to go down, go with Purah your servant down to the camp: | 10 But if thou fear to go down, go thou with Phurah thy servant down to the host: | 10 もしあなたが下って行くことを恐れるならば、あなたのしもべプラと共に敵陣に下っていって、 |
| 7:11 and you shall hear what they say; and afterward your hands will be strengthened to go down into the camp." Then went he down with Purah his servant to the outermost part of the armed men who were in the camp. | 11 And thou shalt hear what they say; and afterward shall thine hands be strengthened to go down unto the host. Then went he down with Phurah his servant unto the outside of the armed men that were in the host. | 11 彼らの言うところを聞け。そうすればあなたの手が強くなって、敵陣に攻め下ることができるであろう」。ギデオンがしもべプラと共に下って、敵陣にある兵隊たちの前哨地点に行ってみると、 |
| 7:12 The Midianites and the Amalekites and all the children of the east lay along in the valley like locusts for multitude; and their camels were without number, as the sand which is on the seashore for multitude. | 12 And the Midianites and the Amalekites and all the children of the east lay along in the valley like grasshoppers for multitude; and their camels were without number, as the sand by the sea side for multitude. | 12 ミデアンびと、アマレクびとおよびすべての東方の民はいなごのように数多く谷に沿って伏していた。そのらくだは海べの砂のように多くて数えきれなかった。 |
| 7:13 When Gideon had come, behold, there was a man telling a dream to his fellow; and he said, "Behold, I dreamed a dream; and behold, a cake of barley bread tumbled into the camp of Midian, and came to the tent, and struck it so that it fell, and turned it upside down, so that the tent lay flat." | 13 And when Gideon was come, behold, there was a man that told a dream unto his fellow, and said, Behold, I dreamed a dream, and, lo, a cake of barley bread tumbled into the host of Midian, and came unto a tent, and smote it that it fell, and overturned it, that the tent lay along. | 13 ギデオンがそこへ行ったとき、ある人がその仲間に夢を語っていた。その人は言った、「わたしは夢を見た。大麦のパン一つがミデアンの陣中にころがってきて、天幕に達し、それを打ち倒し、くつがえしたので、天幕は倒れ伏した」。 |
| 7:14 His fellow answered, "This is nothing else save the sword of Gideon the son of Joash, a man of Israel. God has delivered Midian into his hand, with all the army." | 14 And his fellow answered and said, This is nothing else save the sword of Gideon the son of Joash, a man of Israel: for into his hand hath God delivered Midian, and all the host. | 14 仲間は答えて言った、「それはイスラエルの人、ヨアシの子ギデオンのつるぎにちがいない。神はミデアンとすべての軍勢を彼の手にわたされるのだ」。 |
| 7:15 It was so, when Gideon heard the telling of the dream, and its interpretation, that he worshiped; and he returned into the camp of Israel, and said, "Arise; for Yahweh has delivered the army of Midian into your hand!" | 15 And it was so, when Gideon heard the telling of the dream, and the interpretation thereof, that he worshipped, and returned into the host of Israel, and said, Arise; for the LORD hath delivered into your hand the host of Midian. | 15 ギデオンは夢の物語とその解き明かしとを聞いたので、礼拝し、イスラエルの陣営に帰り、そして言った、「立てよ、主はミデアンの軍勢をあなたがたの手にわたされる」。 |
| 7:16 He divided the three hundred men into three companies, and he put into the hands of all of them trumpets, and empty pitchers, with torches within the pitchers. | 16 And he divided the three hundred men into three companies, and he put a trumpet in every man's hand, with empty pitchers, and lamps within the pitchers. | 16 そして彼は三百人を三組に分け、手に手にラッパと、からつぼとを取らせ、つぼの中にたいまつをともさせ、 |
| 7:17 He said to them, "Watch me, and do likewise. Behold, when I come to the outermost part of the camp, it shall be that, as I do, so you shall do. | 17 And he said unto them, Look on me, and do likewise: and, behold, when I come to the outside of the camp, it shall be that, as I do, so shall ye do. | 17 彼らに言った、「わたしを見て、わたしのするようにしなさい。わたしが敵陣のはずれに達したとき、あなたがたもわたしのするようにしなさい。 |
| 7:18 When I blow the trumpet, I and all who are with me, then blow the trumpets also on every side of all the camp, and shout, 'For Yahweh and for Gideon!'" | 18 When I blow with a trumpet, I and all that are with me, then blow ye the trumpets also on every side of all the camp, and say, The sword of the LORD, and of Gideon. | 18 わたしと共におる者がみなラッパを吹くと、あなたがたもまたすべての陣営の四方でラッパを吹き、『主のためだ、ギデオンのためだ』と言いなさい」。 |
| 7:19 So Gideon, and the hundred men who were with him, came to the outermost part of the camp in the beginning of the middle watch, when they had but newly set the watch: and they blew the trumpets, and broke in pieces the pitchers that were in their hands. | 19 So Gideon, and the hundred men that were with him, came unto the outside of the camp in the beginning of the middle watch; and they had but newly set the watch: and they blew the trumpets, and brake the pitchers that were in their hands. | 19 こうしてギデオンと、彼と共にいた百人の者が、中更の初めに敵陣のはずれに行ってみると、ちょうど番兵を交代した時であったので、彼らはラッパを吹き、手に携えていたつぼを打ち砕いた。 |
| 7:20 The three companies blew the trumpets, and broke the pitchers, and held the torches in their left hands, and the trumpets in their right hands with which to blow; and they shouted, "The sword of Yahweh and of Gideon!" | 20 And the three companies blew the trumpets, and brake the pitchers, and held the lamps in their left hands, and the trumpets in their right hands to blow withal: and they cried, The sword of the LORD, and of Gideon. | 20 すなわち三組の者がラッパを吹き、つぼを打ち砕き、左の手にはたいまつをとり、右の手にはラッパを持ってそれを吹き、「主のためのつるぎ、ギデオンのためのつるぎ」と叫んだ。 |
| 7:21 They stood every man in his place around the camp; and all the army ran; and they shouted, and put them to flight. | 21 And they stood every man in his place round about the camp; and all the host ran, and cried, and fled. | 21 そしておのおのその持ち場に立ち、敵陣を取り囲んだので、敵軍はみな走り、大声をあげて逃げ去った。 |
| 7:22 They blew the three hundred trumpets, and Yahweh set every man's sword against his fellow, and against all the army; and the army fled as far as Beth Shittah toward Zererah, as far as the border of Abel Meholah, by Tabbath. | 22 And the three hundred blew the trumpets, and the LORD set every man's sword against his fellow, even throughout all the host: and the host fled to Bethshittah in Zererath, and to the border of Abelmeholah, unto Tabbath. | 22 三百人のものがラッパを吹くと、主は敵軍をしてみな互に同志打ちさせられたので、敵軍はゼレラの方、ベテシッタおよびアベルメホラの境、タバテの近くまで逃げ去った。 |
| 7:23 The men of Israel were gathered together out of Naphtali, and out of Asher, and out of all Manasseh, and pursued after Midian. | 23 And the men of Israel gathered themselves together out of Naphtali, and out of Asher, and out of all Manasseh, and pursued after the Midianites. | 23 イスラエルの人々はナフタリ、アセルおよび全マナセから集まってきて、ミデアンびとを追撃した。 |
| 7:24 Gideon sent messengers throughout all the hill country of Ephraim, saying, "Come down against Midian, and take before them the waters, as far as Beth Barah, even the Jordan!" So all the men of Ephraim were gathered together, and took the waters as far as Beth Barah, even the Jordan. | 24 And Gideon sent messengers throughout all mount Ephraim, saying, come down against the Midianites, and take before them the waters unto Bethbarah and Jordan. Then all the men of Ephraim gathered themselves together, and took the waters unto Bethbarah and Jordan. | 24 ギデオンは使者をあまねくエフライムの山地につかわし、「下ってきて、ミデアンびとを攻め、ベタバラに至るまでの流れを取り、またヨルダンをも取れ」と言わせた。そこでエフライムの人々はみな集まってきて、ベタバラに至るまでの流れを取り、またヨルダンをも取った。 |
| 7:25 They took the two princes of Midian, Oreb and Zeeb; and they killed Oreb at the rock of Oreb, and Zeeb they killed at the winepress of Zeeb, and pursued Midian: and they brought the heads of Oreb and Zeeb to Gideon beyond the Jordan. | 25 And they took two princes of the Midianites, Oreb and Zeeb; and they slew Oreb upon the rock Oreb, and Zeeb they slew at the winepress of Zeeb, and pursued Midian, and brought the heads of Oreb and Zeeb to Gideon on the other side Jordan. | 25 彼らはまたミデアンびとのふたりの君オレブとゼエブを捕え、オレブをオレブ岩のほとりで殺し、ゼエブをゼエブの酒ぶねのほとりで殺した。またミデアンびとを追撃し、オレブとゼエブの首を携えてヨルダンの向こうのギデオンのもとへ行った。 |

| 8:1 The men of Ephraim said to him, "Why have you treated us this way, that you didn't call us, when you went to fight with Midian?" They rebuked him sharply. | 1 And the men of Ephraim said unto him, Why hast thou served us thus, that thou calledst us not, when thou wentest to fight with the Midianites? And they did chide with him sharply. | 1 エフライムの人々はギデオンに向かい「あなたが、ミデアンびとと戦うために行かれたとき、われわれを呼ばれなかったが、どうしてそういうことをされたのですか」と言って激しく彼を責めた。 |
| 8:2 He said to them, "What have I now done in comparison with you? Isn't the gleaning of the grapes of Ephraim better than the vintage of Abiezer? | 2 And he said unto them, What have I done now in comparison of you? Is not the gleaning of the grapes of Ephraim better than the vintage of Abiezer? | 2 ギデオンは彼らに言った、「今わたしのした事は、あなたがたのした事と比べものになりましょうか。エフライムの拾い集めた取り残りのぶどうはアビエゼルの収穫したぶどうにもまさるではありませんか。 |
| 8:3 God has delivered into your hand the princes of Midian, Oreb and Zeeb! What was I able to do in comparison with you?" Then their anger was abated toward him, when he had said that. | 3 God hath delivered into your hands the princes of Midian, Oreb and Zeeb: and what was I able to do in comparison of you? Then their anger was abated toward him, when he had said that. | 3 神はミデアンの君オレブとゼエブをあなたがたの手にわたされました。わたしのなし得た事は、あなたがたのした事と比べものになりましょうか」。ギデオンがこの言葉を述べると、彼らの憤りは解けた。 |
| 8:4 Gideon came to the Jordan, and passed over, he, and the three hundred men who were with him, faint, yet pursuing. | 4 And Gideon came to Jordan, and passed over, he, and the three hundred men that were with him, faint, yet pursuing them. | 4 ギデオンは自分に従っていた三百人と共にヨルダンに行ってこれを渡り、疲れながらもなお追撃したが、 |
| 8:5 He said to the men of Succoth, "Please give loaves of bread to the people who follow me; for they are faint, and I am pursuing after Zebah and Zalmunna, the kings of Midian." | 5 And he said unto the men of Succoth, Give, I pray you, loaves of bread unto the people that follow me; for they be faint, and I am pursuing after Zebah and Zalmunna, kings of Midian. | 5 彼はスコテの人々に言った、「どうぞわたしに従っている民にパンを与えてください。彼らが疲れているのに、わたしはミデアンの王ゼバとザルムンナを追撃しているのですから」。 |
| 8:6 The princes of Succoth said, "Are the hands of Zebah and Zalmunna now in your hand, that we should give bread to your army?" | 6 And the princes of Succoth said, Are the hands of Zebah and Zalmunna now in thine hand, that we should give bread unto thine army? | 6 スコテのつかさたちは言った、「ゼバとザルムンナは、すでにあなたの手のうちにあるのですか。われわれはどうしてあなたの軍勢にパンを与えねばならないのですか」。 |
| 8:7 Gideon said, "Therefore when Yahweh has delivered Zebah and Zalmunna into my hand, then I will tear your flesh with the thorns of the wilderness and with briers." | 7 And Gideon said, Therefore when the LORD hath delivered Zebah and Zalmunna into mine hand, then I will tear your flesh with the thorns of the wilderness and with briers. | 7 ギデオンは言った、「それならば主がわたしの手にゼバとザルムンナをわたされるとき、わたしは野のいばらと、おどろをもって、あなたがたの肉を打つであろう」。 |
| 8:8 He went up there to Penuel, and spoke to them in like manner; and the men of Penuel answered him as the men of Succoth had answered. | 8 And he went up thence to Penuel, and spake unto them likewise: and the men of Penuel answered him as the men of Succoth had answered him. | 8 そしてギデオンはそこからペヌエルに上り、同じことをペヌエルの人々に述べると、彼らもスコテの人々が答えたように答えたので、 |
| 8:9 He spoke also to the men of Penuel, saying, "When I come again in peace, I will break down this tower." | 9 And he spake also unto the men of Penuel, saying, When I come again in peace, I will break down this tower. | 9 ペヌエルの人々に言った、「わたしが安らかに帰ってきたとき、このやぐらを打ちこわすであろう」。 |
| 8:10 Now Zebah and Zalmunna were in Karkor, and their armies with them, about fifteen thousand men, all who were left of all the army of the children of the east; for there fell one hundred twenty thousand men who drew sword. | 10 Now Zebah and Zalmunna were in Karkor, and their hosts with them, about fifteen thousand men, all that were left of all the hosts of the children of the east: for there fell an hundred and twenty thousand men that drew sword. | 10 さてゼバとザルムンナは軍勢おおよそ一万五千人を率いて、カルコルにいた。これは皆、東方の民の全軍のうち生き残ったもので、戦死した者は、つるぎを帯びているものが十二万人あった。 |
| 8:11 Gideon went up by the way of those who lived in tents on the east of Nobah and Jogbehah, and struck the army; for the army was secure. | 11 And Gideon went up by the way of them that dwelt in tents on the east of Nobah and Jogbehah, and smote the host; for the host was secure. | 11 ギデオンはノバとヨグベハの東の隊商の道を上って、敵軍の油断しているところを撃った。 |
| 8:12 Zebah and Zalmunna fled; and he pursued after them; and he took the two kings of Midian, Zebah and Zalmunna, and confused all the army. | 12 And when Zebah and Zalmunna fled, he pursued after them, and took the two kings of Midian, Zebah and Zalmunna, and discomfited all the host. | 12 ゼバとザルムンナは逃げたが、ギデオンは追撃して、ミデアンのふたりの王ゼバとザルムンナを捕え、その軍勢をことごとく撃ち敗った。 |
| 8:13 Gideon the son of Joash returned from the battle from the ascent of Heres. | 13 And Gideon the son of Joash returned from battle before the sun was up, | 13 こうしてヨアシの子ギデオンはヘレスの坂をとおって戦いから帰り、 |
| 8:14 He caught a young man of the men of Succoth, and inquired of him: and he described for him the princes of Succoth, and its elders, seventy-seven men. | 14 And caught a young man of the men of Succoth, and enquired of him: and he described unto him the princes of Succoth, and the elders thereof, even threescore and seventeen men. | 14 スコテの若者ひとりを捕えて、尋ねたところ、彼はスコテのつかさたち及び長老たち七十七人の名をギデオンのために書きしるした。 |
| 8:15 He came to the men of Succoth, and said, "See Zebah and Zalmunna, concerning whom you taunted me, saying, 'Are the hands of Zebah and Zalmunna now in your hand, that we should give bread to your men who are weary?'" | 15 And he came unto the men of Succoth, and said, Behold Zebah and Zalmunna, with whom ye did upbraid me, saying, Are the hands of Zebah and Zalmunna now in thine hand, that we should give bread unto thy men that are weary? | 15 ギデオンはスコテの人々のところへ行って言った、「あなたがたがかつて『ゼバとザルムンナはすでにあなたの手のうちにあるのか。われわれはどうしてあなたの疲れた人々にパンを与えねばならないのか』と言って、わたしをののしったそのゼバとザルムンナを見なさい」。 |
| 8:16 He took the elders of the city, and thorns of the wilderness and briers, and with them he taught the men of Succoth. | 16 And he took the elders of the city, and thorns of the wilderness and briers, and with them he taught the men of Succoth. | 16 そして彼は、その町の長老たちを捕え、野のいばらと、おどろとを取り、それをもってスコテの人々を懲らし、 |
| 8:17 He broke down the tower of Penuel, and killed the men of the city. | 17 And he beat down the tower of Penuel, and slew the men of the city. | 17 またペヌエルのやぐらを打ちこわして町の人々を殺した。 |
| 8:18 Then said he to Zebah and Zalmunna, "What kind of men were they whom you killed at Tabor?" They answered, "They were like you. Each one resembled the children of a king." | 18 Then said he unto Zebah and Zalmunna, What manner of men were they whom ye slew at Tabor? And they answered, As thou art, so were they; each one resembled the children of a king. | 18 そしてギデオンはゼバとザルムンナに言った、「あなたがたがタボルで殺したのは、どんな人々であったか」。彼らは答えた、「彼らはあなたに似てみな王子のように見えました」。 |
| 8:19 He said, "They were my brothers, the sons of my mother. As Yahweh lives, if you had saved them alive, I would not kill you." | 19 And he said, They were my brethren, even the sons of my mother: as the LORD liveth, if ye had saved them alive, I would not slay you. | 19 ギデオンは言った、「彼らはわたしの兄弟、わたしの母の子たちだ。主は生きておられる。もしあなたがたが彼らを生かしておいたならば、わたしはあなたがたを殺さないのだが」。 |
| 8:20 He said to Jether his firstborn, "Get up, and kill them!" But the youth didn't draw his sword; for he was afraid, because he was yet a youth. | 20 And he said unto Jether his firstborn, Up, and slay them. But the youth drew not his sword: for he feared, because he was yet a youth. | 20 そして長子エテルに言った、「立って、彼らを殺しなさい」。しかしその若者はなお年が若かったので、恐れてつるぎを抜かなかった。 |
| 8:21 Then Zebah and Zalmunna said, "Rise and fall on us; for as the man is, so is his strength." Gideon arose, and killed Zebah and Zalmunna, and took the crescents that were on their camels' necks. | 21 Then Zebah and Zalmunna said, Rise thou, and fall upon us: for as the man is, so is his strength. And Gideon arose, and slew Zebah and Zalmunna, and took away the ornaments that were on their camels' necks. | 21 そこでゼバとザルムンナは言った、「あなた自身が立って、わたしたちを撃ってください。人によってそれぞれ力も違いますから」。ギデオンは立ちあがってゼバとザルムンナを殺し、彼らのらくだの首に掛けてあった月形の飾りを取った。 |
| 8:22 Then the men of Israel said to Gideon, "Rule over us, both you, and your son, and your son's son also; for you have saved us out of the hand of Midian." | 22 Then the men of Israel said unto Gideon, Rule thou over us, both thou, and thy son, and thy son's son also: for thou hast delivered us from the hand of Midian. | 22 イスラエルの人々はギデオンに言った、「あなたはミデアンの手からわれわれを救われたのですから、あなたも、あなたの子も孫もわれわれを治めてください」。 |
| 8:23 Gideon said to them, "I will not rule over you, neither shall my son rule over you. Yahweh shall rule over you." | 23 And Gideon said unto them, I will not rule over you, neither shall my son rule over you: the LORD shall rule over you. | 23 ギデオンは彼らに言った、「わたしはあなたがたを治めることはいたしません。またわたしの子もあなたがたを治めてはなりません。主があなたがたを治められます」。 |
| 8:24 Gideon said to them, "I would make a request of you, that you would give me every man the earrings of his spoil." (For they had golden earrings, because they were Ishmaelites.) | 24 And Gideon said unto them, I would desire a request of you, that ye would give me every man the earrings of his prey. (For they had golden earrings, because they were Ishmaelites.) | 24 ギデオンはまた彼らに言った、「わたしはあなたがたに一つの願いがあります。あなたがたのぶんどった耳輪をめいめいわたしにください」。ミデアンびとはイシマエルびとであったゆえに、金の耳輪を持っていたからである。 |
| 8:25 They answered, "We will willingly give them." They spread a garment, and every man threw the earrings of his spoil into it. | 25 And they answered, We will willingly give them. And they spread a garment, and did cast therein every man the earrings of his prey. | 25 彼らは答えた、「わたしどもは喜んでそれをさしあげます」。そして衣をひろげ、めいめいぶんどった耳輪をその中に投げ入れた。 |
| 8:26 The weight of the golden earrings that he requested was one thousand and seven hundred shekels of gold, besides the crescents, and the pendants, and the purple clothing that was on the kings of Midian, and besides the chains that were about their camels' necks. | 26 And the weight of the golden earrings that he requested was a thousand and seven hundred shekels of gold; beside ornaments, and collars, and purple raiment that was on the kings of Midian, and beside the chains that were about their camels' necks. | 26 こうしてギデオンが求めて得た金の耳輪の重さは一千七百金シケルであった。ほかに月形の飾りと耳飾りと、ミデアンの王たちの着た紫の衣およびらくだの首に掛けた首飾りなどもあった。 |
| 8:27 Gideon made an ephod of it, and put it in his city, even in Ophrah: and all Israel played the prostitute after it there; and it became a snare to Gideon, and to his house. | 27 And Gideon made an ephod thereof, and put it in his city, even in Ophrah: and all Israel went thither a whoring after it: which thing became a snare unto Gideon, and to his house. | 27 ギデオンはそれをもって一つのエポデを作り、それを自分の町オフラに置いた。イスラエルは皆それを慕って姦淫をおこなった。それはギデオンとその家にとって、わなとなった。 |
| 8:28 So Midian was subdued before the children of Israel, and they lifted up their heads no more. The land had rest forty years in the days of Gideon. | 28 Thus was Midian subdued before the children of Israel, so that they lifted up their heads no more. And the country was in quietness forty years in the days of Gideon. | 28 このようにしてミデアンはイスラエルの人々に征服されて、再びその頭をあげることができなかった。そして国はギデオンの世にあるうち、四十年のあいだ太平であった。 |
| 8:29 Jerubbaal the son of Joash went and lived in his own house. | 29 And Jerubbaal the son of Joash went and dwelt in his own house. | 29 ヨアシの子エルバアルは行って自分の家に住んだ。 |
| 8:30 Gideon had seventy sons conceived from his body; for he had many wives. | 30 And Gideon had threescore and ten sons of his body begotten: for he had many wives. | 30 ギデオンは多くの妻をもっていたので、自分の子供だけで七十人あった。 |
| 8:31 His concubine who was in Shechem, she also bore him a son, and he named him Abimelech. | 31 And his concubine that was in Shechem, she also bare him a son, whose name he called Abimelech. | 31 シケムにいた彼のめかけがまたひとりの子を産んだので、アビメレクと名づけた。 |
| 8:32 Gideon the son of Joash died in a good old age, and was buried in the tomb of Joash his father, in Ophrah of the Abiezrites. | 32 And Gideon the son of Joash died in a good old age, and was buried in the sepulchre of Joash his father, in Ophrah of the Abiezrites. | 32 ヨアシの子ギデオンは高齢に達して死に、アビエゼルびとのオフラにある父ヨアシの墓に葬られた。 |
| 8:33 It happened, as soon as Gideon was dead, that the children of Israel turned again, and played the prostitute after the Baals, and made Baal Berith their god. | 33 And it came to pass, as soon as Gideon was dead, that the children of Israel turned again, and went a whoring after Baalim, and made Baalberith their god. | 33 ギデオンが死ぬと、イスラエルの人々はまたバアルを慕って、これと姦淫を行い、バアル・ベリテを自分たちの神とした。 |
| 8:34 The children of Israel didn't remember Yahweh their God, who had delivered them out of the hand of all their enemies on every side; | 34 And the children of Israel remembered not the LORD their God, who had delivered them out of the hands of all their enemies on every side: | 34 すなわちイスラエルの人々は周囲のもろもろの敵の手から自分たちを救われた彼らの神、主を覚えず、 |
| 8:35 neither did they show kindness to the house of Jerubbaal, who is Gideon, according to all the goodness which he had shown to Israel. | 35 Neither shewed they kindness to the house of Jerubbaal, namely, Gideon, according to all the goodness which he had shewed unto Israel. | 35 またエルバアルすなわちギデオンがイスラエルのためにしたもろもろの善行に応じて彼の家族に親切をつくすこともしなかった。 |

| 9:1 Abimelech the son of Jerubbaal went to Shechem to his mother's brothers, and spoke with them, and with all the family of the house of his mother's father, saying, | 1 And Abimelech the son of Jerubbaal went to Shechem unto his mother's brethren, and communed with them, and with all the family of the house of his mother's father, saying, | 1 さてエルバアルの子アビメレクはシケムに行き、母の身内の人たちのもとに行って、彼らと母の父の家の一族とに言った、 |
| 9:2 "Please speak in the ears of all the men of Shechem, 'Is it better for you that all the sons of Jerubbaal, who are seventy persons, rule over you, or that one rule over you?' Remember also that I am your bone and your flesh." | 2 Speak, I pray you, in the ears of all the men of Shechem, Whether is better for you, either that all the sons of Jerubbaal, which are threescore and ten persons, reign over you, or that one reign over you? remember also that I am your bone and your flesh. | 2 「どうぞ、シケムのすべての人々の耳に告げてください、『エルバアルのすべての子七十人であなたがたを治めるのと、ただひとりであなたがたを治めるのと、どちらがよいか。わたしがあなたがたの骨肉であることを覚えてください』と」。 |
| 9:3 His mother's brothers spoke of him in the ears of all the men of Shechem all these words: and their hearts inclined to follow Abimelech; for they said, "He is our brother." | 3 And his mother's brethren spake of him in the ears of all the men of Shechem all these words: and their hearts inclined to follow Abimelech; for they said, He is our brother. | 3 そこで母の身内の人たちがアビメレクに代ってこれらの言葉をことごとくシケムのすべての人々の耳に告げると、彼らは心をアビメレクに傾け、「彼はわれわれの兄弟だ」と言って、 |
| 9:4 They gave him seventy pieces of silver out of the house of Baal Berith, with which Abimelech hired vain and light fellows, who followed him. | 4 And they gave him threescore and ten pieces of silver out of the house of Baalberith, wherewith Abimelech hired vain and light persons, which followed him. | 4 バアル・ベリテの宮から銀七十シケルを取って彼に与えた。アビメレクはそれをもって、やくざのならず者を雇って自分に従わせ、 |
| 9:5 He went to his father's house at Ophrah, and killed his brothers the sons of Jerubbaal, being seventy persons, on one stone: but Jotham the youngest son of Jerubbaal was left; for he hid himself. | 5 And he went unto his father's house at Ophrah, and slew his brethren the sons of Jerubbaal, being threescore and ten persons, upon one stone: notwithstanding yet Jotham the youngest son of Jerubbaal was left; for he hid himself. | 5 オフラにある父の家に行って、エルバアルの子で、自分の兄弟である七十人を、一つの石の上で殺した。ただしエルバアルの末の子ヨタムは身を隠したので生き残った。 |
| 9:6 All the men of Shechem assembled themselves together, and all the house of Millo, and went and made Abimelech king, by the oak of the pillar that was in Shechem. | 6 And all the men of Shechem gathered together, and all the house of Millo, and went, and made Abimelech king, by the plain of the pillar that was in Shechem. | 6 そこでシケムのすべての人々とベテミロのすべての人々は集まり、行ってシケムにある石の柱のかたわらのテレビンの木のもとで、アビメレクを立てて王とした。 |
| 9:7 When they told it to Jotham, he went and stood on the top of Mount Gerizim, and lifted up his voice, and cried, and said to them, "Listen to me, you men of Shechem, that God may listen to you. | 7 And when they told it to Jotham, he went and stood in the top of mount Gerizim, and lifted up his voice, and cried, and said unto them, Hearken unto me, ye men of Shechem, that God may hearken unto you. | 7 このことをヨタムに告げる者があったので、ヨタムは行ってゲリジム山の頂に立ち、大声に叫んで彼らに言った、「シケムの人々よ、わたしに聞きなさい。そうすれば神はあなたがたに聞かれるでしょう。 |
| 9:8 The trees went forth on a time to anoint a king over them; and they said to the olive tree, 'Reign over us.' | 8 The trees went forth on a time to anoint a king over them; and they said unto the olive tree, Reign thou over us. | 8 ある時、もろもろの木が自分たちの上に王を立てようと出て行ってオリブの木に言った、『わたしたちの王になってください』。 |
| 9:9 "But the olive tree said to them, 'Should I leave my fatness, with which by me they honor God and man, and go to wave back and forth over the trees?' | 9 But the olive tree said unto them, Should I leave my fatness, wherewith by me they honour God and man, and go to be promoted over the trees? | 9 しかしオリブの木は彼らに言った、『わたしはどうして神と人とをあがめるために用いられるわたしの油を捨てて行って、もろもろの木を治めることができましょう』。 |
| 9:10 "The trees said to the fig tree, 'Come and reign over us.' | 10 And the trees said to the fig tree, Come thou, and reign over us. | 10 もろもろの木はまたいちじくの木に言った、『きてわたしたちの王になってください』。 |
| 9:11 "But the fig tree said to them, 'Should I leave my sweetness, and my good fruit, and go to wave back and forth over the trees?' | 11 But the fig tree said unto them, Should I forsake my sweetness, and my good fruit, and go to be promoted over the trees? | 11 しかしいちじくの木は彼らに言った、『わたしはどうしてわたしの甘味と、わたしの良い果実とを捨てて行って、もろもろの木を治めることができましょう』。 |
| 9:12 "The trees said to the vine, 'Come and reign over us.' | 12 Then said the trees unto the vine, Come thou, and reign over us. | 12 もろもろの木はまたぶどうの木に言った、『きてわたしたちの王になってください』。 |
| 9:13 "The vine said to them, 'Should I leave my new wine, which cheers God and man, and go to wave back and forth over the trees?' | 13 And the vine said unto them, Should I leave my wine, which cheereth God and man, and go to be promoted over the trees? | 13 しかし、ぶどうの木は彼らに言った、『わたしはどうして神と人とを喜ばせるわたしのぶどう酒を捨てて行って、もろもろの木を治めることができましょう』。 |
| 9:14 "Then said all the trees to the bramble, 'Come and reign over us.' | 14 Then said all the trees unto the bramble, Come thou, and reign over us. | 14 そこですべての木はいばらに言った、『きてわたしたちの王になってください』。 |
| 9:15 "The bramble said to the trees, 'If in truth you anoint me king over you, then come and take refuge in my shade; and if not, let fire come out of the bramble, and devour the cedars of Lebanon.' | 15 And the bramble said unto the trees, If in truth ye anoint me king over you, then come and put your trust in my shadow: and if not, let fire come out of the bramble, and devour the cedars of Lebanon. | 15 いばらはもろもろの木に言った、『あなたがたが真実にわたしを立てて王にするならば、きてわたしの陰に難を避けなさい。そうしなければ、いばらから火が出てレバノンの香柏を焼きつくすでしょう』。 |
| 9:16 "Now therefore, if you have dealt truly and righteously, in that you have made Abimelech king, and if you have dealt well with Jerubbaal and his house, and have done to him according to the deserving of his hands | 16 Now therefore, if ye have done truly and sincerely, in that ye have made Abimelech king, and if ye have dealt well with Jerubbaal and his house, and have done unto him according to the deserving of his hands; | 16 あなたがたがアビメレクを立てて王にしたことは、真実と敬意とをもってしたものですか。あなたがたはエルバアルとその家をよく扱い、彼のおこないに応じてしたのですか。 |
| 9:17 (for my father fought for you, and risked his life, and delivered you out of the hand of Midian: | 17 (For my father fought for you, and adventured his life far, and delivered you out of the hand of Midian: | 17 わたしの父はあなたがたのために戦い、自分の命を投げ出して、あなたがたをミデアンの手から救い出したのに、 |
| 9:18 and you have risen up against my father's house this day, and have slain his sons, seventy persons, on one stone, and have made Abimelech, the son of his female servant, king over the men of Shechem, because he is your brother); | 18 And ye are risen up against my father's house this day, and have slain his sons, threescore and ten persons, upon one stone, and have made Abimelech, the son of his maidservant, king over the men of Shechem, because he is your brother;) | 18 あなたがたは、きょう、わたしの父の家に反抗して起り、その子七十人を一つの石の上で殺し、その腰元の子アビメレクをあなたがたの身内の者であるゆえに立てて、シケムの人々の王にしました。 |
| 9:19 if you then have dealt truly and righteously with Jerubbaal and with his house this day, then rejoice in Abimelech, and let him also rejoice in you: | 19 If ye then have dealt truly and sincerely with Jerubbaal and with his house this day, then rejoice ye in Abimelech, and let him also rejoice in you: | 19 あなたがたが、きょう、エルバアルとその家になされたことが真実と敬意をもってしたものであるならば、アビメレクのために喜びなさい。彼もまたあなたがたのために喜ぶでしょう。 |
| 9:20 but if not, let fire come out from Abimelech, and devour the men of Shechem, and the house of Millo; and let fire come out from the men of Shechem, and from the house of Millo, and devour Abimelech." | 20 But if not, let fire come out from Abimelech, and devour the men of Shechem, and the house of Millo; and let fire come out from the men of Shechem, and from the house of Millo, and devour Abimelech. | 20 しかし、そうでなければ、アビメレクから火が出て、シケムの人々とベテミロとを焼きつくし、またシケムの人々とベテミロからも火が出てアビメレクを焼きつくすでしょう」。 |
| 9:21 Jotham ran away, and fled, and went to Beer, and lived there, for fear of Abimelech his brother. | 21 And Jotham ran away, and fled, and went to Beer, and dwelt there, for fear of Abimelech his brother. | 21 こうしてヨタムは走って逃げ去り、ベエルに行き、兄弟アビメレクの顔をさけてそこに住んだ。 |
| 9:22 Abimelech was prince over Israel three years. | 22 When Abimelech had reigned three years over Israel, | 22 アビメレクは三年の間イスラエルを治めたが、 |
| 9:23 God sent an evil spirit between Abimelech and the men of Shechem; and the men of Shechem dealt treacherously with Abimelech: | 23 Then God sent an evil spirit between Abimelech and the men of Shechem; and the men of Shechem dealt treacherously with Abimelech: | 23 神はアビメレクとシケムの人々の間に悪霊をおくられたので、シケムの人々はアビメレクを欺くようになった。 |
| 9:24 that the violence done to the seventy sons of Jerubbaal might come, and that their blood might be laid on Abimelech their brother, who killed them, and on the men of Shechem, who strengthened his hands to kill his brothers. | 24 That the cruelty done to the threescore and ten sons of Jerubbaal might come, and their blood be laid upon Abimelech their brother, which slew them; and upon the men of Shechem, which aided him in the killing of his brethren. | 24 これはエルバアルの七十人の子が受けた暴虐と彼らの血が、彼らを殺した兄弟アビメレクの上と、彼の手を強めてその兄弟を殺させたシケムの人々の上とに報いとなってきたのである。 |
| 9:25 The men of Shechem set an ambush for him on the tops of the mountains, and they robbed all who came along that way by them: and it was told Abimelech. | 25 And the men of Shechem set liers in wait for him in the top of the mountains, and they robbed all that came along that way by them: and it was told Abimelech. | 25 シケムの人々は彼に敵して待ち伏せする者を山々の頂におき、すべてその道を通り過ぎる者を略奪させた。このことがアビメレクに告げ知らされた。 |
| 9:26 Gaal the son of Ebed came with his brothers, and went over to Shechem; and the men of Shechem put their trust in him. | 26 And Gaal the son of Ebed came with his brethren, and went over to Shechem: and the men of Shechem put their confidence in him. | 26 さてエベデの子ガアルはその身内の人々と一緒にシケムに移住したが、シケムの人々は彼を信用した。 |
| 9:27 They went out into the field, and gathered their vineyards, and trod the grapes, and held festival, and went into the house of their god, and did eat and drink, and cursed Abimelech. | 27 And they went out into the fields, and gathered their vineyards, and trode the grapes, and made merry, and went into the house of their god, and did eat and drink, and cursed Abimelech. | 27 人々は畑に出てぶどうを取り入れ、それを踏み絞って祭をし、神の宮に行って飲み食いしてアビメレクをのろった。 |
| 9:28 Gaal the son of Ebed said, "Who is Abimelech, and who is Shechem, that we should serve him? Isn't he the son of Jerubbaal? and Zebul his officer? Serve the men of Hamor the father of Shechem: but why should we serve him? | 28 And Gaal the son of Ebed said, Who is Abimelech, and who is Shechem, that we should serve him? is not he the son of Jerubbaal? and Zebul his officer? serve the men of Hamor the father of Shechem: for why should we serve him? | 28 そしてエベデの子ガアルは言った、「アビメレクは何ものか。シケムのわれわれは何ものなれば彼に仕えなければならないのか。エルバアルの子とその役人ゼブルはシケムの先祖ハモルの一族に仕えたではないか。われわれはどうして彼に仕えなければならないのか。 |
| 9:29 Would that this people were under my hand! Then I would remove Abimelech." He said to Abimelech, "Increase your army, and come out!" | 29 And would to God this people were under my hand! then would I remove Abimelech. And he said to Abimelech, Increase thine army, and come out. | 29 ああ、この民がわたしの手の下にあったらよいのだが。そうすればわたしはアビメレクをやめさせ、アビメレクに向かって『おまえの軍勢を増して出てこい』と言うであろう」。 |
| 9:30 When Zebul the ruler of the city heard the words of Gaal the son of Ebed, his anger was kindled. | 30 And when Zebul the ruler of the city heard the words of Gaal the son of Ebed, his anger was kindled. | 30 町のつかさゼブルはエベデの子ガアルの言葉を聞いて怒りを発し、 |
| 9:31 He sent messengers to Abimelech craftily, saying, "Behold, Gaal the son of Ebed and his brothers are come to Shechem; and behold, they constrain the city to take part against you. | 31 And he sent messengers unto Abimelech privily, saying, Behold, Gaal the son of Ebed and his brethren be come to Shechem; and, behold, they fortify the city against thee. | 31 使者をアルマにおるアビメレクにつかわして言わせた、「エベデの子ガアルとその身内の人々がシケムにきて、町を騒がせ、あなたにそむかせようとしています。 |
| 9:32 Now therefore, go up by night, you and the people who are with you, and lie in wait in the field: | 32 Now therefore up by night, thou and the people that is with thee, and lie in wait in the field: | 32 それであなたと、あなたと共におる人々が夜のうちに行って、野に身を伏せ、 |
| 9:33 and it shall be, that in the morning, as soon as the sun is up, you shall rise early, and rush on the city; and behold, when he and the people who are with him come out against you, then may you do to them as you shall find occasion." | 33 And it shall be, that in the morning, as soon as the sun is up, thou shalt rise early, and set upon the city: and, behold, when he and the people that is with him come out against thee, then mayest thou do to them as thou shalt find occasion. | 33 朝になって、日ののぼるとき、早く起き出て町を襲うならば、ガアルと、彼と共におる民は出てきて、あなたに抵抗するでしょう。その時あなたは機を得て、彼らを撃つことができるでしょう」。 |
| 9:34 Abimelech rose up, and all the people who were with him, by night, and they laid wait against Shechem in four companies. | 34 And Abimelech rose up, and all the people that were with him, by night, and they laid wait against Shechem in four companies. | 34 アビメレクと、彼と共にいたすべての民は夜のうちに起き出て、四組に分れ、身を伏せてシケムをうかがった。 |
| 9:35 Gaal the son of Ebed went out, and stood in the entrance of the gate of the city: and Abimelech rose up, and the people who were with him, from the ambush. | 35 And Gaal the son of Ebed went out, and stood in the entering of the gate of the city: and Abimelech rose up, and the people that were with him, from lying in wait. | 35 エベデの子ガアルが出て、町の門の入口に立ったとき、アビメレクと、彼と共にいた民が身を伏せていたところから立ちあがったので、 |
| 9:36 When Gaal saw the people, he said to Zebul, "Behold, people are coming down from the tops of the mountains." Zebul said to him, "You see the shadow of the mountains as if they were men." | 36 And when Gaal saw the people, he said to Zebul, Behold, there come people down from the top of the mountains. And Zebul said unto him, Thou seest the shadow of the mountains as if they were men. | 36 ガアルは民を見てゼブルに言った、「ごらんなさい。民が山々の頂からおりてきます」。ゼブルは彼に言った、「あなたは山々の影を人のように見るのです」。 |
| 9:37 Gaal spoke again and said, "Behold, people are coming down by the middle of the land, and one company comes by the way of the oak of Meonenim." | 37 And Gaal spake again, and said, See there come people down by the middle of the land, and another company come along by the plain of Meonenim. | 37 ガアルは再び言った、「ごらんなさい。民が国の中央部からおりてきます。一組は占い師のテレビンの木の方からきます」。 |
| 9:38 Then Zebul said to him, "Now where is your mouth, that you said, 'Who is Abimelech, that we should serve him?' Isn't this the people that you have despised? Go out now, please, and fight with them." | 38 Then said Zebul unto him, Where is now thy mouth, wherewith thou saidst, Who is Abimelech, that we should serve him? is not this the people that thou hast despised? go out, I pray now, and fight with them. | 38 ゼブルは彼に言った、「あなたがかつて『アビメレクは何ものか。われわれは何ものなれば彼に仕えなければならないのか』と言ったあなたの口は今どこにありますか。これはあなたが侮った民ではありませんか。今、出て彼らと戦いなさい」。 |
| 9:39 Gaal went out before the men of Shechem, and fought with Abimelech. | 39 And Gaal went out before the men of Shechem, and fought with Abimelech. | 39 そこでガアルはシケムの人々を率い、出てアビメレクと戦ったが、 |
| 9:40 Abimelech chased him, and he fled before him, and many fell wounded, even to the entrance of the gate. | 40 And Abimelech chased him, and he fled before him, and many were overthrown and wounded, even unto the entering of the gate. | 40 アビメレクは彼を追ったので、ガアルは彼の前から逃げた。そして傷つき倒れる者が多く、門の入口にまで及んだ。 |
| 9:41 Abimelech lived at Arumah: and Zebul drove out Gaal and his brothers, that they should not dwell in Shechem. | 41 And Abimelech dwelt at Arumah: and Zebul thrust out Gaal and his brethren, that they should not dwell in Shechem. | 41 こうしてアビメレクは引き続いてアルマにいたが、ゼブルはガアルとその身内の人々を追い出してシケムにおらせなかった。 |
| 9:42 It happened on the next day, that the people went out into the field; and they told Abimelech. | 42 And it came to pass on the morrow, that the people went out into the field; and they told Abimelech. | 42 翌日、民が畑に出ると、そのことがアビメレクに聞えた。 |
| 9:43 He took the people, and divided them into three companies, and laid wait in the field; and he looked, and behold, the people came forth out of the city; He rose up against them, and struck them. | 43 And he took the people, and divided them into three companies, and laid wait in the field, and looked, and, behold, the people were come forth out of the city; and he rose up against them, and smote them. | 43 アビメレクは自分の民を率い、それを三組に分け、野に身を伏せて、うかがっていると、民が町から出てきたので、たちあがってこれを撃った。 |
| 9:44 Abimelech, and the companies that were with him, rushed forward, and stood in the entrance of the gate of the city: and the two companies rushed on all who were in the field, and struck them. | 44 And Abimelech, and the company that was with him, rushed forward, and stood in the entering of the gate of the city: and the two other companies ran upon all the people that were in the fields, and slew them. | 44 アビメレクと、彼と共にいた組の者は襲って行って、町の門の入口に立ち、他の二組は野にいたすべてのものを襲って、それを殺した。 |
| 9:45 Abimelech fought against the city all that day; and he took the city, and killed the people who were therein: and he beat down the city, and sowed it with salt. | 45 And Abimelech fought against the city all that day; and he took the city, and slew the people that was therein, and beat down the city, and sowed it with salt. | 45 アビメレクはその日、終日、町を攻め、ついに町を取って、そのうちの民を殺し、町を破壊して、塩をまいた。 |
| 9:46 When all the men of the tower of Shechem heard of it, they entered into the stronghold of the house of Elberith. | 46 And when all the men of the tower of Shechem heard that, they entered into an hold of the house of the god Berith. | 46 シケムのやぐらの人々は皆これを聞いて、エルベリテの宮の塔にはいった。 |
| 9:47 It was told Abimelech that all the men of the tower of Shechem were gathered together. | 47 And it was told Abimelech, that all the men of the tower of Shechem were gathered together. | 47 シケムのやぐらの人々が皆集まったことがアビメレクに聞えたので、 |
| 9:48 Abimelech got him up to Mount Zalmon, he and all the people who were with him; and Abimelech took an axe in his hand, and cut down a bough from the trees, and took it up, and laid it on his shoulder: and he said to the people who were with him, "What you have seen me do, make haste, and do as I have done!" | 48 And Abimelech gat him up to mount Zalmon, he and all the people that were with him; and Abimelech took an ax in his hand, and cut down a bough from the trees, and took it, and laid it on his shoulder, and said unto the people that were with him, What ye have seen me do, make haste, and do as I have done. | 48 アビメレクは自分と一緒にいた民をことごとく率いてザルモン山にのぼり、アビメレクは手におのを取って、木の枝を切り落し、それを取りあげて自分の肩にのせ、一緒にいた民にむかって言った、「あなたがたはわたしがしたことを見たとおりに急いでしなさい」。 |
| 9:49 All the people likewise each cut down his bough, and followed Abimelech, and put them at the base of the stronghold, and set the stronghold on fire on them; so that all the people of the tower of Shechem died also, about a thousand men and women. | 49 And all the people likewise cut down every man his bough, and followed Abimelech, and put them to the hold, and set the hold on fire upon them; so that all the men of the tower of Shechem died also, about a thousand men and women. | 49 そこで民もまた皆おのおのその枝を切り落し、アビメレクに従って行って、枝を塔によせかけ、塔に火をつけて彼らを攻めた。こうしてシケムのやぐらの人々もまたことごとく死んだ。男女おおよそ一千人であった。 |
| 9:50 Then went Abimelech to Thebez, and encamped against Thebez, and took it. | 50 Then went Abimelech to Thebez, and encamped against Thebez, and took it. | 50 ついでアビメレクはテベツに行き、テベツに向かって陣を張り、これを攻め取ったが、 |
| 9:51 But there was a strong tower within the city, and there fled all the men and women, and all they of the city, and shut themselves in, and got them up to the roof of the tower. | 51 But there was a strong tower within the city, and thither fled all the men and women, and all they of the city, and shut it to them, and gat them up to the top of the tower. | 51 町の中に一つの堅固なやぐらがあって、すべての男女すなわち町の人々が皆そこに逃げ込み、あとを閉ざして、やぐらの屋根に上ったので、 |
| 9:52 Abimelech came to the tower, and fought against it, and drew near to the door of the tower to burn it with fire. | 52 And Abimelech came unto the tower, and fought against it, and went hard unto the door of the tower to burn it with fire. | 52 アビメレクはやぐらのもとに押し寄せてこれを攻め、やぐらの入口に近づいて、火をつけて焼こうとしたとき、 |
| 9:53 A certain woman cast an upper millstone on Abimelech's head, and broke his skull. | 53 And a certain woman cast a piece of a millstone upon Abimelech's head, and all to brake his skull. | 53 ひとりの女がアビメレクの頭に、うすの上石を投げて、その頭骸骨を砕いた。 |
| 9:54 Then he called hastily to the young man his armor bearer, and said to him, "Draw your sword, and kill me, that men not say of me, 'A woman killed him.' His young man thrust him through, and he died." | 54 Then he called hastily unto the young man his armourbearer, and said unto him, Draw thy sword, and slay me, that men say not of me, A woman slew him. And his young man thrust him through, and he died. | 54 アビメレクは自分の武器を持つ若者を急ぎ呼んで言った、「つるぎを抜いてわたしを殺せ。さもないと人々はわたしを、女に殺されたのだと言うであろう」。その若者が彼を刺し通したので彼は死んだ。 |
| 9:55 When the men of Israel saw that Abimelech was dead, they departed every man to his place. | 55 And when the men of Israel saw that Abimelech was dead, they departed every man unto his place. | 55 イスラエルの人々はアビメレクの死んだのを見て、おのおの去って家に帰った。 |
| 9:56 Thus God requited the wickedness of Abimelech, which he did to his father, in killing his seventy brothers; | 56 Thus God rendered the wickedness of Abimelech, which he did unto his father, in slaying his seventy brethren: | 56 このように神はアビメレクがその兄弟七十人を殺して、自分の父に対して犯した悪に報いられた。 |
| 9:57 and all the wickedness of the men of Shechem did God requite on their heads: and on them came the curse of Jotham the son of Jerubbaal. | 57 And all the evil of the men of Shechem did God render upon their heads: and upon them came the curse of Jotham the son of Jerubbaal. | 57 また神はシケムの人々のすべての悪を彼らのこうべに報いられた。こうしてエルバアルの子ヨタムののろいが、彼らに臨んだのである。 |

| 10:1 After Abimelech there arose to save Israel Tola the son of Puah, the son of Dodo, a man of Issachar; and he lived in Shamir in the hill country of Ephraim. | 1 And after Abimelech there arose to defend Israel Tola the son of Puah, the son of Dodo, a man of Issachar; and he dwelt in Shamir in mount Ephraim. | 1 アビメレクの後、イッサカルの人で、ドドの子であるプワの子トラが起ってイスラエルを救った。彼はエフライムの山地のシャミルに住み、 |
| 10:2 He judged Israel twenty-three years, and died, and was buried in Shamir. | 2 And he judged Israel twenty and three years, and died, and was buried in Shamir. | 2 二十三年の間イスラエルをさばいたが、ついに死んでシャミルに葬られた。 |
| 10:3 After him arose Jair, the Gileadite; and he judged Israel twenty-two years. | 3 And after him arose Jair, a Gileadite, and judged Israel twenty and two years. | 3 彼の後にギレアデびとヤイルが起って二十二年の間イスラエルをさばいた。 |
| 10:4 He had thirty sons who rode on thirty donkey colts, and they had thirty cities, which are called Havvoth Jair to this day, which are in the land of Gilead. | 4 And he had thirty sons that rode on thirty ass colts, and they had thirty cities, which are called Havothjair unto this day, which are in the land of Gilead. | 4 彼に三十人の子があった。彼らは三十頭のろばに乗り、また三十の町をもっていた。ギレアデの地で今日まで、ハボテ・ヤイルと呼ばれているものがそれである。 |
| 10:5 Jair died, and was buried in Kamon. | 5 And Jair died, and was buried in Camon. | 5 ヤイルは死んで、カモンに葬られた。 |
| 10:6 The children of Israel again did that which was evil in the sight of Yahweh, and served the Baals, and the Ashtaroth, and the gods of Syria, and the gods of Sidon, and the gods of Moab, and the gods of the children of Ammon, and the gods of the Philistines; and they forsook Yahweh, and didn't serve him. | 6 And the children of Israel did evil again in the sight of the LORD, and served Baalim, and Ashtaroth, and the gods of Syria, and the gods of Zidon, and the gods of Moab, and the gods of the children of Ammon, and the gods of the Philistines, and forsook the LORD, and served not him. | 6 イスラエルの人々は再び主の前に悪を行い、バアルとアシタロテおよびスリヤの神々、シドンの神々、モアブの神々、アンモンびとの神々、ペリシテびとの神々に仕え、主を捨ててこれに仕えなかった。 |
| 10:7 The anger of Yahweh was kindled against Israel, and he sold them into the hand of the Philistines, and into the hand of the children of Ammon. | 7 And the anger of the LORD was hot against Israel, and he sold them into the hands of the Philistines, and into the hands of the children of Ammon. | 7 主はイスラエルに対して怒りを発し、彼らをペリシテびとの手およびアンモンびとの手に売りわたされたので、 |
| 10:8 They troubled and oppressed the children of Israel that year: eighteen years oppressed they all the children of Israel that were beyond the Jordan in the land of the Amorites, which is in Gilead. | 8 And that year they vexed and oppressed the children of Israel: eighteen years, all the children of Israel that were on the other side Jordan in the land of the Amorites, which is in Gilead. | 8 彼らはその年イスラエルの人々をしえたげ悩ました。すなわち彼らはヨルダンの向こうのギレアデにあるアモリびとの地にいたすべてのイスラエルびとを十八年のあいだ悩ました。 |
| 10:9 The children of Ammon passed over the Jordan to fight also against Judah, and against Benjamin, and against the house of Ephraim; so that Israel was sore distressed. | 9 Moreover the children of Ammon passed over Jordan to fight also against Judah, and against Benjamin, and against the house of Ephraim; so that Israel was sore distressed. | 9 またアンモンの人々がユダとベニヤミンとエフライムの氏族を攻めるためにヨルダンを渡ってきたので、イスラエルは非常に悩まされた。 |
| 10:10 The children of Israel cried to Yahweh, saying, "We have sinned against you, even because we have forsaken our God, and have served the Baals." | 10 And the children of Israel cried unto the LORD, saying, We have sinned against thee, both because we have forsaken our God, and also served Baalim. | 10 そこでイスラエルの人々は主に呼ばわって言った、「わたしたちはわたしたちの神を捨ててバアルに仕え、あなたに罪を犯しました」。 |
| 10:11 Yahweh said to the children of Israel, "Didn't I save you from the Egyptians, and from the Amorites, from the children of Ammon, and from the Philistines? | 11 And the LORD said unto the children of Israel, Did not I deliver you from the Egyptians, and from the Amorites, from the children of Ammon, and from the Philistines? | 11 主はイスラエルの人々に言われた、「わたしはかつてエジプトびと、アモリびと、アンモンびと、ペリシテびとからあなたがたを救い出したではないか。 |
| 10:12 The Sidonians also, and the Amalekites, and the Maonites, did oppress you; and you cried to me, and I saved you out of their hand. | 12 The Zidonians also, and the Amalekites, and the Maonites, did oppress you; and ye cried to me, and I delivered you out of their hand. | 12 またシドンびと、アマレクびとおよびマオンびとがあなたがたをしえたげた時、わたしに呼ばわったので、あなたがたを彼らの手から救い出した。 |
| 10:13 Yet you have forsaken me, and served other gods: therefore I will save you no more. | 13 Yet ye have forsaken me, and served other gods: wherefore I will deliver you no more. | 13 しかしあなたがたはわたしを捨てて、ほかの神々に仕えた。それゆえ、わたしはかさねてあなたがたを救わないであろう。 |
| 10:14 Go and cry to the gods which you have chosen. Let them save you in the time of your distress!" | 14 Go and cry unto the gods which ye have chosen; let them deliver you in the time of your tribulation. | 14 あなたがたが選んだ神々に行って呼ばわり、あなたがたの悩みの時、彼らにあなたがたを救わせるがよい」。 |
| 10:15 The children of Israel said to Yahweh, "We have sinned: do you to us whatever seems good to you; only deliver us, we pray you, this day." | 15 And the children of Israel said unto the LORD, We have sinned: do thou unto us whatsoever seemeth good unto thee; deliver us only, we pray thee, this day. | 15 イスラエルの人々は主に言った、「わたしたちは罪を犯しました。なんでもあなたが良いと思われることをしてください。ただどうぞ、きょう、わたしたちを救ってください」。 |
| 10:16 They put away the foreign gods from among them, and served Yahweh; and his soul was grieved for the misery of Israel. | 16 And they put away the strange gods from among them, and served the LORD: and his soul was grieved for the misery of Israel. | 16 そうして彼らは自分たちのうちから異なる神々を取り除いて、主に仕えた。それで主の心はイスラエルの悩みを見るに忍びなくなった。 |
| 10:17 Then the children of Ammon were gathered together, and encamped in Gilead. The children of Israel assembled themselves together, and encamped in Mizpah. | 17 Then the children of Ammon were gathered together, and encamped in Gilead. And the children of Israel assembled themselves together, and encamped in Mizpeh. | 17 時にアンモンの人々は召集されてギレアデに陣を取ったが、イスラエルの人々は集まってミヅパに陣を取った。 |
| 10:18 The people, the princes of Gilead, said one to another, "What man is he who will begin to fight against the children of Ammon? He shall be head over all the inhabitants of Gilead." | 18 And the people and princes of Gilead said one to another, What man is he that will begin to fight against the children of Ammon? he shall be head over all the inhabitants of Gilead. | 18 その時、民とギレアデの君たちとは互に言った、「だれがアンモンの人々に向かって戦いを始めるか。その人はギレアデのすべての民のかしらとなるであろう」。 |

| 11:1 Now Jephthah the Gileadite was a mighty man of valor, and he was the son of a prostitute: and Gilead became the father of Jephthah. | 1 Now Jephthah the Gileadite was a mighty man of valour, and he was the son of an harlot: and Gilead begat Jephthah. | 1 さてギレアデびとエフタは強い勇士であったが遊女の子で、エフタの父はギレアデであった。 |
| 11:2 Gilead's wife bore him sons; and when his wife's sons grew up, they drove out Jephthah, and said to him, "You shall not inherit in our father's house; for you are the son of another woman." | 2 And Gilead's wife bare him sons; and his wife's sons grew up, and they thrust out Jephthah, and said unto him, Thou shalt not inherit in our father's house; for thou art the son of a strange woman. | 2 ギレアデの妻も子供を産んだが、その妻の子供たちが成長したとき、彼らはエフタを追い出して彼に言った、「あなたはほかの女の産んだ子だから、わたしたちの父の家を継ぐことはできません」。 |
| 11:3 Then Jephthah fled from his brothers, and lived in the land of Tob: and there were gathered vain fellows to Jephthah, and they went out with him. | 3 Then Jephthah fled from his brethren, and dwelt in the land of Tob: and there were gathered vain men to Jephthah, and went out with him. | 3 それでエフタはその兄弟たちのもとから逃げ去って、トブの地に住んでいると、やくざ者がエフタのもとに集まってきて、彼と一緒に出かけて略奪を事としていた。 |
| 11:4 It happened after a while, that the children of Ammon made war against Israel. | 4 And it came to pass in process of time, that the children of Ammon made war against Israel. | 4 日がたって後、アンモンの人々はイスラエルと戦うことになり、 |
| 11:5 It was so, that when the children of Ammon made war against Israel, the elders of Gilead went to get Jephthah out of the land of Tob; | 5 And it was so, that when the children of Ammon made war against Israel, the elders of Gilead went to fetch Jephthah out of the land of Tob: | 5 アンモンの人々がイスラエルと戦ったとき、ギレアデの長老たちは行ってエフタをトブの地から連れてこようとして、 |
| 11:6 and they said to Jephthah, "Come and be our chief, that we may fight with the children of Ammon." | 6 And they said unto Jephthah, Come, and be our captain, that we may fight with the children of Ammon. | 6 エフタに言った、「きて、わたしたちの大将になってください。そうすればわたしたちはアンモンの人々と戦うことができます」。 |
| 11:7 Jephthah said to the elders of Gilead, "Didn't you hate me, and drive me out of my father's house? Why have you come to me now when you are in distress?" | 7 And Jephthah said unto the elders of Gilead, Did not ye hate me, and expel me out of my father's house? and why are ye come unto me now when ye are in distress? | 7 エフタはギレアデの長老たちに言った、「あなたがたはわたしを憎んで、わたしの父の家から追い出したではありませんか。しかるに今あなたがたが困っている時とはいえ、わたしのところに来るとはどういうわけですか」。 |
| 11:8 The elders of Gilead said to Jephthah, "Therefore we have turned again to you now, that you may go with us, and fight with the children of Ammon; and you shall be our head over all the inhabitants of Gilead." | 8 And the elders of Gilead said unto Jephthah, Therefore we turn again to thee now, that thou mayest go with us, and fight against the children of Ammon, and be our head over all the inhabitants of Gilead. | 8 ギレアデの長老たちはエフタに言った、「それでわたしたちは今、あなたに帰ったのです。どうぞ、わたしたちと一緒に行って、アンモンの人々と戦ってください。そしてわたしたちとギレアデに住んでいるすべてのものとのかしらになってください」。 |
| 11:9 Jephthah said to the elders of Gilead, "If you bring me home again to fight with the children of Ammon, and Yahweh deliver them before me, shall I be your head?" | 9 And Jephthah said unto the elders of Gilead, If ye bring me home again to fight against the children of Ammon, and the LORD deliver them before me, shall I be your head? | 9 エフタはギレアデの長老たちに言った、「もしあなたがたが、わたしをつれて帰って、アンモンの人々と戦わせるとき、主が彼らをわたしにわたされるならば、わたしはあなたがたのかしらとなりましょう」。 |
| 11:10 The elders of Gilead said to Jephthah, "Yahweh shall be witness between us; surely according to your word so will we do." | 10 And the elders of Gilead said unto Jephthah, The LORD be witness between us, if we do not so according to thy words. | 10 ギレアデの長老たちはエフタに言った、「主はあなたとわたしたちの間の証人です。わたしたちは必ずあなたの言われるとおりにしましょう」。 |
| 11:11 Then Jephthah went with the elders of Gilead, and the people made him head and chief over them: and Jephthah spoke all his words before Yahweh in Mizpah. | 11 Then Jephthah went with the elders of Gilead, and the people made him head and captain over them: and Jephthah uttered all his words before the LORD in Mizpeh. | 11 そこでエフタはギレアデの長老たちと一緒に行った。民は彼を立てて自分たちのかしらとし、大将とした。それでエフタはミヅパで、自分の言葉をことごとく主の前に述べた。 |
| 11:12 Jephthah sent messengers to the king of the children of Ammon, saying, "What have you to do with me, that you have come to me to fight against my land?" | 12 And Jephthah sent messengers unto the king of the children of Ammon, saying, What hast thou to do with me, that thou art come against me to fight in my land? | 12 かくてエフタはアンモンの人々の王に使者をつかわして言った、「あなたはわたしとなんのかかわりがあって、わたしのところへ攻めてきて、わたしの国と戦おうとするのですか」。 |
| 11:13 The king of the children of Ammon answered to the messengers of Jephthah, "Because Israel took away my land, when he came up out of Egypt, from the Arnon even to the Jabbok, and to the Jordan: now therefore restore those lands again peaceably." | 13 And the king of the children of Ammon answered unto the messengers of Jephthah, Because Israel took away my land, when they came up out of Egypt, from Arnon even unto Jabbok, and unto Jordan: now therefore restore those lands again peaceably. | 13 アンモンの人々の王はエフタの使者に答えた、「昔、イスラエルがエジプトから上ってきたとき、アルノンからヤボクに及び、またヨルダンに及ぶわたしの国を奪い取ったからです。それゆえ今、穏やかにそれを返しなさい」。 |
| 11:14 Jephthah sent messengers again to the king of the children of Ammon; | 14 And Jephthah sent messengers again unto the king of the children of Ammon: | 14 エフタはまた使者をアンモンの人々の王につかわして、 |
| 11:15 and he said to him, "Thus says Jephthah: Israel didn't take away the land of Moab, nor the land of the children of Ammon, | 15 And said unto him, Thus saith Jephthah, Israel took not away the land of Moab, nor the land of the children of Ammon: | 15 言わせた、「エフタはこう申します、『イスラエルはモアブの地も、またアンモンの人々の地も取りませんでした。 |
| 11:16 but when they came up from Egypt, and Israel went through the wilderness to the Red Sea, and came to Kadesh; | 16 But when Israel came up from Egypt, and walked through the wilderness unto the Red sea, and came to Kadesh; | 16 イスラエルはエジプトから上ってきたとき、荒野をとおって紅海にいたり、カデシにきました。 |
| 11:17 then Israel sent messengers to the king of Edom, saying, 'Please let me pass through your land;' but the king of Edom didn't listen. In the same way, he sent to the king of Moab; but he would not: and Israel abode in Kadesh. | 17 Then Israel sent messengers unto the king of Edom, saying, Let me, I pray thee, pass through thy land: but the king of Edom would not hearken thereto. And in like manner they sent unto the king of Moab: but he would not consent: and Israel abode in Kadesh. | 17 そしてイスラエルは使者をエドムの王につかわして「どうぞ、われわれにあなたの国を通らせてください」と言わせましたが、エドムの王は聞きいれませんでした。また同じように人をモアブの王につかわしたが、彼も承諾しなかったので、イスラエルはカデシにとどまりました。 |
| 11:18 Then they went through the wilderness, and went around the land of Edom, and the land of Moab, and came by the east side of the land of Moab, and they encamped on the other side of the Arnon; but they didn't come within the border of Moab, for the Arnon was the border of Moab. | 18 Then they went along through the wilderness, and compassed the land of Edom, and the land of Moab, and came by the east side of the land of Moab, and pitched on the other side of Arnon, but came not within the border of Moab: for Arnon was the border of Moab. | 18 それから荒野をとおって、エドムの地とモアブの地を回り、モアブの地の東部に達し、アルノンの向こうに宿営しましたがモアブの領域には、はいりませんでした。アルノンはモアブの境だからです。 |
| 11:19 Israel sent messengers to Sihon king of the Amorites, the king of Heshbon; and Israel said to him, 'Let us pass, please, through your land to my place.' | 19 And Israel sent messengers unto Sihon king of the Amorites, the king of Heshbon; and Israel said unto him, Let us pass, we pray thee, through thy land into my place. | 19 次にイスラエルはヘシボンの王すなわちアモリびとの王シホンに使者をつかわし、シホンに向かって「どうぞ、われわれにあなたの国をとおって、われわれの目的地へ行かせてください」と言わせました。 |
| 11:20 But Sihon didn't trust Israel to pass through his border; but Sihon gathered all his people together, and encamped in Jahaz, and fought against Israel. | 20 But Sihon trusted not Israel to pass through his coast: but Sihon gathered all his people together, and pitched in Jahaz, and fought against Israel. | 20 ところがシホンはイスラエルを信ぜず、その領域を通らせないばかりか、かえってすべての民を集めてヤハヅに陣を取り、イスラエルと戦いましたが、 |
| 11:21 Yahweh, the God of Israel, delivered Sihon and all his people into the hand of Israel, and they struck them: so Israel possessed all the land of the Amorites, the inhabitants of that country. | 21 And the LORD God of Israel delivered Sihon and all his people into the hand of Israel, and they smote them: so Israel possessed all the land of the Amorites, the inhabitants of that country. | 21 イスラエルの神、主はシホンとそのすべての民をイスラエルの手にわたされたので、イスラエルは彼らを撃ち破って、その土地に住んでいたアモリびとの地をことごとく占領し、 |
| 11:22 They possessed all the border of the Amorites, from the Arnon even to the Jabbok, and from the wilderness even to the Jordan. | 22 And they possessed all the coasts of the Amorites, from Arnon even unto Jabbok, and from the wilderness even unto Jordan. | 22 アルノンからヤボクまでと、荒野からヨルダンまで、アモリびとの領域をことごとく占領しました。 |
| 11:23 So now Yahweh, the God of Israel, has dispossessed the Amorites from before his people Israel, and should you possess them? | 23 So now the LORD God of Israel hath dispossessed the Amorites from before his people Israel, and shouldest thou possess it? | 23 このようにイスラエルの神、主はその民イスラエルの前からアモリびとを追い払われたのに、あなたはそれを取ろうとするのですか。 |
| 11:24 Won't you possess that which Chemosh your god gives you to possess? So whoever Yahweh our God has dispossessed from before us, them will we possess. | 24 Wilt not thou possess that which Chemosh thy god giveth thee to possess? So whomsoever the LORD our God shall drive out from before us, them will we possess. | 24 あなたは、あなたの神ケモシがあなたに取らせるものを取らないのですか。われわれはわれわれの神、主がわれわれの前から追い払われたものの土地を取るのです。 |
| 11:25 Now are you anything better than Balak the son of Zippor, king of Moab? Did he ever strive against Israel, or did he ever fight against them? | 25 And now art thou any thing better than Balak the son of Zippor, king of Moab? did he ever strive against Israel, or did he ever fight against them, | 25 あなたはモアブの王チッポルの子バラクにまさる者ですか。バラクはかつてイスラエルと争ったことがありますか。かつて彼らと戦ったことがありますか。 |
| 11:26 While Israel lived in Heshbon and its towns, and in Aroer and its towns, and in all the cities that are along by the side of the Arnon, three hundred years; why didn't you recover them within that time? | 26 While Israel dwelt in Heshbon and her towns, and in Aroer and her towns, and in all the cities that be along by the coasts of Arnon, three hundred years? why therefore did ye not recover them within that time? | 26 イスラエルはヘシボンとその村里に住み、またアロエルとその村里およびアルノンの岸に沿うすべての町々に住むこと三百年になりますが、あなたがたはどうしてその間にそれを取りもどさなかったのですか。 |
| 11:27 I therefore have not sinned against you, but you do me wrong to war against me. Yahweh, the Judge, be judge this day between the children of Israel and the children of Ammon." | 27 Wherefore I have not sinned against thee, but thou doest me wrong to war against me: the LORD the Judge be judge this day between the children of Israel and the children of Ammon. | 27 わたしはあなたに何も悪い事をしたこともないのに、あなたはわたしと戦って、わたしに害を加えようとします。審判者であられる主よ、どうぞ、きょう、イスラエルの人々とアンモンの人々との間をおさばきください』」。 |
| 11:28 However the king of the children of Ammon didn't listen to the words of Jephthah which he sent him. | 28 Howbeit the king of the children of Ammon hearkened not unto the words of Jephthah which he sent him. | 28 しかしアンモンの人々の王はエフタが言いつかわした言葉をききいれなかった。 |
| 11:29 Then the Spirit of Yahweh came on Jephthah, and he passed over Gilead and Manasseh, and passed over Mizpeh of Gilead, and from Mizpeh of Gilead he passed over to the children of Ammon. | 29 Then the Spirit of the LORD came upon Jephthah, and he passed over Gilead, and Manasseh, and passed over Mizpeh of Gilead, and from Mizpeh of Gilead he passed over unto the children of Ammon. | 29 時に主の霊がエフタに臨み、エフタはギレアデおよびマナセをとおって、ギレアデのミヅパに行き、ギレアデのミヅパから進んでアンモンの人々のところに行った。 |
| 11:30 Jephthah vowed a vow to Yahweh, and said, "If you will indeed deliver the children of Ammon into my hand, | 30 And Jephthah vowed a vow unto the LORD, and said, If thou shalt without fail deliver the children of Ammon into mine hands, | 30 エフタは主に誓願を立てて言った、「もしあなたがアンモンの人々をわたしの手にわたされるならば、 |
| 11:31 then it shall be, that whatever comes forth from the doors of my house to meet me, when I return in peace from the children of Ammon, it shall be Yahweh's, and I will offer it up for a burnt offering." | 31 Then it shall be, that whatsoever cometh forth of the doors of my house to meet me, when I return in peace from the children of Ammon, shall surely be the LORD's, and I will offer it up for a burnt offering. | 31 わたしがアンモンの人々に勝って帰るときに、わたしの家の戸口から出てきて、わたしを迎えるものはだれでも主のものとし、その者を燔祭としてささげましょう」。 |
| 11:32 So Jephthah passed over to the children of Ammon to fight against them; and Yahweh delivered them into his hand. | 32 So Jephthah passed over unto the children of Ammon to fight against them; and the LORD delivered them into his hands. | 32 エフタはアンモンの人々のところに進んで行って、彼らと戦ったが、主は彼らをエフタの手にわたされたので、 |
| 11:33 He struck them from Aroer until you come to Minnith, even twenty cities, and to Abelcheramim, with a very great slaughter. So the children of Ammon were subdued before the children of Israel. | 33 And he smote them from Aroer, even till thou come to Minnith, even twenty cities, and unto the plain of the vineyards, with a very great slaughter. Thus the children of Ammon were subdued before the children of Israel. | 33 アロエルからミンニテの附近まで、二十の町を撃ち敗り、アベル・ケラミムに至るまで、非常に多くの人を殺した。こうしてアンモンの人々はイスラエルの人々の前に攻め伏せられた。 |
| 11:34 Jephthah came to Mizpah to his house; and behold, his daughter came out to meet him with tambourines and with dances: and she was his only child; besides her he had neither son nor daughter. | 34 And Jephthah came to Mizpeh unto his house, and, behold, his daughter came out to meet him with timbrels and with dances: and she was his only child; beside her he had neither son nor daughter. | 34 やがてエフタはミヅパに帰り、自分の家に来ると、彼の娘が鼓をもち、舞い踊って彼を出迎えた。彼女はエフタのひとり子で、ほかに男子も女子もなかった。 |
| 11:35 It happened, when he saw her, that he tore his clothes, and said, "Alas, my daughter! You have brought me very low, and you are one of those who trouble me; for I have opened my mouth to Yahweh, and I can't go back." | 35 And it came to pass, when he saw her, that he rent his clothes, and said, Alas, my daughter! thou hast brought me very low, and thou art one of them that trouble me: for I have opened my mouth unto the LORD, and I cannot go back. | 35 エフタは彼女を見ると、衣を裂いて言った、「ああ、娘よ、あなたは全くわたしを打ちのめした。わたしを悩ますものとなった。わたしが主に誓ったのだから改めることはできないのだ」。 |
| 11:36 She said to him, "My father, you have opened your mouth to Yahweh; do to me according to that which has proceeded out of your mouth, because Yahweh has taken vengeance for you on your enemies, even on the children of Ammon." | 36 And she said unto him, My father, if thou hast opened thy mouth unto the LORD, do to me according to that which hath proceeded out of thy mouth; forasmuch as the LORD hath taken vengeance for thee of thine enemies, even of the children of Ammon. | 36 娘は言った、「父よ、あなたは主に誓われたのですから、主があなたのために、あなたの敵アンモンの人々に報復された今、あなたが言われたとおりにわたしにしてください」。 |
| 11:37 She said to her father, "Let this thing be done for me: let me alone two months, that I may depart and go down on the mountains, and bewail my virginity, I and my companions." | 37 And she said unto her father, Let this thing be done for me: let me alone two months, that I may go up and down upon the mountains, and bewail my virginity, I and my fellows. | 37 娘はまた父に言った、「どうぞ、この事をわたしにさせてください。すなわち二か月の間わたしをゆるし、友だちと一緒に行って、山々をゆきめぐり、わたしの処女であることを嘆かせてください」。 |
| 11:38 He said, "Go." He sent her away for two months: and she departed, she and her companions, and mourned her virginity on the mountains. | 38 And he said, Go. And he sent her away for two months: and she went with her companions, and bewailed her virginity upon the mountains. | 38 エフタは「行きなさい」と言って、彼女を二か月の間、出してやった。彼女は友だちと一緒に行って、山の上で自分の処女であることを嘆いたが、 |
| 11:39 It happened at the end of two months, that she returned to her father, who did with her according to his vow which he had vowed: and she was a virgin. It was a custom in Israel, | 39 And it came to pass at the end of two months, that she returned unto her father, who did with her according to his vow which he had vowed: and she knew no man. And it was a custom in Israel, | 39 二か月の後、父のもとに帰ってきたので、父は誓った誓願のとおりに彼女におこなった。彼女はついに男を知らなかった。 |
| 11:40 that the daughters of Israel went yearly to celebrate the daughter of Jephthah the Gileadite four days in a year. | 40 That the daughters of Israel went yearly to lament the daughter of Jephthah the Gileadite four days in a year. | 40 これによって年々イスラエルの娘たちは行って、年に四日ほどギレアデびとエフタの娘のために嘆くことがイスラエルのならわしとなった。 |

| 12:1 The men of Ephraim were gathered together, and passed northward; and they said to Jephthah, "Why did you pass over to fight against the children of Ammon, and didn't call us to go with you? We will burn your house around you with fire!" | 1 And the men of Ephraim gathered themselves together, and went northward, and said unto Jephthah, Wherefore passedst thou over to fight against the children of Ammon, and didst not call us to go with thee? we will burn thine house upon thee with fire. | 1 エフライムの人々は集まってザポンに行き、エフタに言った、「なぜあなたは進んで行ってアンモンの人々と戦いながら、われわれを招いて一緒に行かせませんでしたか。われわれはあなたの家に火をつけてあなたを一緒に焼いてしまいます」。 |
| 12:2 Jephthah said to them, "I and my people were at great strife with the children of Ammon; and when I called you, you didn't save me out of their hand. | 2 And Jephthah said unto them, I and my people were at great strife with the children of Ammon; and when I called you, ye delivered me not out of their hands. | 2 エフタは彼らに言った、「かつてわたしとわたしの民がアンモンの人々と大いに争ったとき、あなたがたを呼んだが、あなたがたはわたしを彼らの手から救ってくれませんでした。 |
| 12:3 When I saw that you didn't save me, I put my life in my hand, and passed over against the children of Ammon, and Yahweh delivered them into my hand. Why then have you come up to me this day, to fight against me?" | 3 And when I saw that ye delivered me not, I put my life in my hands, and passed over against the children of Ammon, and the LORD delivered them into my hand: wherefore then are ye come up unto me this day, to fight against me? | 3 あなたがたが救ってくれないのを見たから、わたしは命がけでアンモンの人々のところへ攻めて行きますと、主は彼らをわたしの手にわたされたのです。どうしてあなたがたは、きょう、わたしのところに上ってきて、わたしと戦おうとするのですか」。 |
| 12:4 Then Jephthah gathered together all the men of Gilead, and fought with Ephraim; and the men of Gilead struck Ephraim, because they said, "You are fugitives of Ephraim, you Gileadites, in the midst of Ephraim, and in the midst of Manasseh." | 4 Then Jephthah gathered together all the men of Gilead, and fought with Ephraim: and the men of Gilead smote Ephraim, because they said, Ye Gileadites are fugitives of Ephraim among the Ephraimites, and among the Manassites. | 4 そこでエフタはギレアデの人々をことごとく集めてエフライムと戦い、ギレアデの人々はエフライムを撃ち破った。これはエフライムが「ギレアデびとよ、あなたがたはエフライムとマナセのうちにいるエフライムの落人だ」と言ったからである。 |
| 12:5 The Gileadites took the fords of the Jordan against the Ephraimites. It was so, that when any of the fugitives of Ephraim said, Let me go over, the men of Gilead said to him, "Are you an Ephraimite?" If he said, "No;" | 5 And the Gileadites took the passages of Jordan before the Ephraimites: and it was so, that when those Ephraimites which were escaped said, Let me go over; that the men of Gilead said unto him, Art thou an Ephraimite? If he said, Nay; | 5 そしてギレアデびとはエフライムに渡るヨルダンの渡し場を押えたので、エフライムの落人が「渡らせてください」と言うとき、ギレアデの人々は「あなたはエフライムびとですか」と問い、その人がもし「そうではありません」と言うならば、 |
| 12:6 then they said to him, "Now say 'Shibboleth;'" and he said "Sibboleth;" for he couldn't manage to pronounce it right: then they laid hold of him, and killed him at the fords of the Jordan. At that time, forty-two thousand of Ephraim fell. | 6 Then said they unto him, Say now Shibboleth: and he said Sibboleth: for he could not frame to pronounce it right. Then they took him, and slew him at the passages of Jordan: and there fell at that time of the Ephraimites forty and two thousand. | 6 またその人に「では『シボレテ』と言ってごらんなさい」と言い、その人がそれを正しく発音することができないで「セボレテ」と言うときは、その人を捕えて、ヨルダンの渡し場で殺した。その時エフライムびとの倒れたものは四万二千人であった。 |
| 12:7 Jephthah judged Israel six years. Then died Jephthah the Gileadite, and was buried in one of the cities of Gilead. | 7 And Jephthah judged Israel six years. Then died Jephthah the Gileadite, and was buried in one of the cities of Gilead. | 7 エフタは六年の間イスラエルをさばいた。ギレアデびとエフタはついに死んで、ギレアデの自分の町に葬られた。 |
| 12:8 After him Ibzan of Bethlehem judged Israel. | 8 And after him Ibzan of Bethlehem judged Israel. | 8 彼の後にベツレヘムのイブザンがイスラエルをさばいた。 |
| 12:9 He had thirty sons; and thirty daughters he sent abroad, and thirty daughters he brought in from abroad for his sons. He judged Israel seven years. | 9 And he had thirty sons, and thirty daughters, whom he sent abroad, and took in thirty daughters from abroad for his sons. And he judged Israel seven years. | 9 彼に三十人のむすこがあった。また三十人の娘があったが、それを自分の氏族以外の者にとつがせ、むすこたちのためには三十人の娘をほかからめとった。彼は七年の間イスラエルをさばいた。 |

| 12:11 After him Elon the Zebulunite judged Israel; and he judged Israel ten years. | 11 And after him Elon, a Zebulonite, judged Israel; and he judged Israel ten years. | 11 彼の後にゼブルンびとエロンがイスラエルをさばいた。彼は十年の間イスラエルをさばいた。 |
| 12:12 Elon the Zebulunite died, and was buried in Aijalon in the land of Zebulun. | 12 And Elon the Zebulonite died, and was buried in Aijalon in the country of Zebulun. | 12 ゼブルンびとエロンはついに死んで、ゼブルンの地のアヤロンに葬られた。 |
| 12:13 After him Abdon the son of Hillel the Pirathonite judged Israel. | 13 And after him Abdon the son of Hillel, a Pirathonite, judged Israel. | 13 彼の後にピラトンびとヒレルの子アブドンがイスラエルをさばいた。 |
| 12:14 He had forty sons and thirty sons' sons, who rode on seventy donkey colts: and he judged Israel eight years. | 14 And he had forty sons and thirty nephews, that rode on threescore and ten ass colts: and he judged Israel eight years. | 14 彼に四十人のむすこ及び三十人の孫があり、七十頭のろばに乗った。彼は八年の間イスラエルをさばいた。 |
| 12:15 Abdon the son of Hillel the Pirathonite died, and was buried in Pirathon in the land of Ephraim, in the hill country of the Amalekites. | 15 And Abdon the son of Hillel the Pirathonite died, and was buried in Pirathon in the land of Ephraim, in the mount of the Amalekites. | 15 ピラトンびとヒレルの子アブドンはついに死んで、エフライムの地のアマレクびとの山地にあるピラトンに葬られた。 |

| 13:1 The children of Israel again did that which was evil in the sight of Yahweh; and Yahweh delivered them into the hand of the Philistines forty years. | 1 And the children of Israel did evil again in the sight of the LORD; and the LORD delivered them into the hand of the Philistines forty years. | 1 イスラエルの人々がまた主の前に悪を行ったので、主は彼らを四十年の間ペリシテびとの手にわたされた。 |
| 13:2 There was a certain man of Zorah, of the family of the Danites, whose name was Manoah; and his wife was barren, and didn't bear. | 2 And there was a certain man of Zorah, of the family of the Danites, whose name was Manoah; and his wife was barren, and bare not. | 2 ここにダンびとの氏族の者で、名をマノアというゾラの人があった。その妻はうまずめで、子を産んだことがなかった。 |
| 13:3 The angel of Yahweh appeared to the woman, and said to her, "See now, you are barren, and don't bear; but you shall conceive, and bear a son. | 3 And the angel of the LORD appeared unto the woman, and said unto her, Behold now, thou art barren, and bearest not: but thou shalt conceive, and bear a son. | 3 主の使がその女に現れて言った、「あなたはうまずめで、子を産んだことがありません。しかし、あなたは身ごもって男の子を産むでしょう。 |
| 13:4 Now therefore please beware and drink no wine nor strong drink, and don't eat any unclean thing: | 4 Now therefore beware, I pray thee, and drink not wine nor strong drink, and eat not any unclean thing: | 4 それであなたは気をつけて、ぶどう酒または濃い酒を飲んではなりません。またすべて汚れたものを食べてはなりません。 |
| 13:5 for, behold, you shall conceive, and bear a son; and no razor shall come on his head; for the child shall be a Nazirite to God from the womb: and he shall begin to save Israel out of the hand of the Philistines." | 5 For, lo, thou shalt conceive, and bear a son; and no razor shall come on his head: for the child shall be a Nazarite unto God from the womb: and he shall begin to deliver Israel out of the hand of the Philistines. | 5 あなたは身ごもって男の子を産むでしょう。その頭にかみそりをあててはなりません。その子は生れた時から神にささげられたナジルびとです。彼はペリシテびとの手からイスラエルを救い始めるでしょう」。 |
| 13:6 Then the woman came and told her husband, saying, "A man of God came to me, and his face was like the face of the angel of God, very awesome; and I didn't ask him whence he was, neither did he tell me his name: | 6 Then the woman came and told her husband, saying, A man of God came unto me, and his countenance was like the countenance of an angel of God, very terrible: but I asked him not whence he was, neither told he me his name: | 6 そこでその女はきて夫に言った、「神の人がわたしのところにきました。その顔かたちは神の使の顔かたちのようで、たいそう恐ろしゅうございました。わたしはその人が、どこからきたのか尋ねませんでしたが、その人もわたしに名を告げませんでした。 |
| 13:7 but he said to me, 'Behold, you shall conceive, and bear a son; and now drink no wine nor strong drink, and eat not any unclean thing; for the child shall be a Nazirite to God from the womb to the day of his death.'" | 7 But he said unto me, Behold, thou shalt conceive, and bear a son; and now drink no wine nor strong drink, neither eat any unclean thing: for the child shall be a Nazarite to God from the womb to the day of his death. | 7 しかしその人はわたしに『あなたは身ごもって男の子を産むでしょう。それであなたはぶどう酒または濃い酒を飲んではなりません。またすべて汚れたものを食べてはなりません。その子は生れた時から死ぬ日まで神にささげられたナジルびとです』と申しました」。 |
| 13:8 Then Manoah entreated Yahweh, and said, "Oh, Lord, please let the man of God whom you did send come again to us, and teach us what we shall do to the child who shall be born." | 8 Then Manoah intreated the LORD, and said, O my Lord, let the man of God which thou didst send come again unto us, and teach us what we shall do unto the child that shall be born. | 8 そこでマノアは主に願い求めて言った、「ああ、主よ、どうぞ、あなたがさきにつかわされた神の人をもう一度わたしたちに臨ませて、わたしたちがその生れる子になすべきことを教えさせてください」。 |
| 13:9 God listened to the voice of Manoah; and the angel of God came again to the woman as she sat in the field: but Manoah, her husband, wasn't with her. | 9 And God hearkened to the voice of Manoah; and the angel of God came again unto the woman as she sat in the field: but Manoah her husband was not with her. | 9 神がマノアの願いを聞かれたので、神の使は女が畑に座していた時、ふたたび彼女に臨んだ。しかし夫マノアは一緒にいなかった。 |
| 13:10 The woman made haste, and ran, and told her husband, and said to him, "Behold, the man has appeared to me, who came to me the other day." | 10 And the woman made haste, and ran, and shewed her husband, and said unto him, Behold, the man hath appeared unto me, that came unto me the other day. | 10 女は急ぎ走って行って夫に言った、「さきごろ、わたしに臨まれた人がまたわたしに現れました」。 |
| 13:11 Manoah arose, and went after his wife, and came to the man, and said to him, "Are you the man who spoke to the woman?" He said, "I am." | 11 And Manoah arose, and went after his wife, and came to the man, and said unto him, Art thou the man that spakest unto the woman? And he said, I am. | 11 マノアは立って妻のあとについて行き、その人のもとに行って言った、「あなたはかつてこの女にお告げになったおかたですか」。その人は言った、「そうです」。 |
| 13:12 Manoah said, "Now let your words happen. What shall be the ordering of the child, and how shall we do to him?" | 12 And Manoah said, Now let thy words come to pass. How shall we order the child, and how shall we do unto him? | 12 マノアは言った、「あなたの言われたことが事実となったとき、その子の育て方およびこれになすべき事はなんでしょうか」。 |
| 13:13 The angel of Yahweh said to Manoah, "Of all that I said to the woman let her beware. | 13 And the angel of the LORD said unto Manoah, Of all that I said unto the woman let her beware. | 13 主の使はマノアに言った、「わたしがさきに女に言ったことは皆、守らせなければなりません。 |
| 13:14 She may not eat of anything that comes of the vine, neither let her drink wine or strong drink, nor eat any unclean thing; all that I commanded her let her observe." | 14 She may not eat of any thing that cometh of the vine, neither let her drink wine or strong drink, nor eat any unclean thing: all that I commanded her let her observe. | 14 すなわちぶどうの木から産するものはすべて食べてはなりません。またぶどう酒と濃い酒を飲んではなりません。またすべて汚れたものを食べてはなりません。わたしが彼女に命じたことは皆、守らせなければなりません」。 |
| 13:15 Manoah said to the angel of Yahweh, "I pray you, let us detain you, that we may make a young goat ready for you." | 15 And Manoah said unto the angel of the LORD, I pray thee, let us detain thee, until we shall have made ready a kid for thee. | 15 マノアは主の使に言った、「どうぞ、わたしたちに、あなたを引き留めさせ、あなたのために子やぎを備えさせてください」。 |
| 13:16 The angel of Yahweh said to Manoah, "Though you detain me, I won't eat of your bread; and if you will make ready a burnt offering, you must offer it to Yahweh." For Manoah didn't know that he was the angel of Yahweh. | 16 And the angel of the LORD said unto Manoah, Though thou detain me, I will not eat of thy bread: and if thou wilt offer a burnt offering, thou must offer it unto the LORD. For Manoah knew not that he was an angel of the LORD. | 16 主の使はマノアに言った、「あなたがわたしを引き留めても、わたしはあなたの食物をたべません。しかしあなたが燔祭を備えようとなさるのであれば、主にそれをささげなさい」。マノアは彼が主の使であるのを知らなかったからである。 |
| 13:17 Manoah said to the angel of Yahweh, "What is your name, that when your words happen, we may honor you?" | 17 And Manoah said unto the angel of the LORD, What is thy name, that when thy sayings come to pass we may do thee honour? | 17 マノアは主の使に言った、「あなたの名はなんといいますか。あなたの言われたことが事実となったとき、わたしたちはあなたをあがめましょう」。 |
| 13:18 The angel of Yahweh said to him, "Why do you ask about my name, seeing it is wonderful?" | 18 And the angel of the LORD said unto him, Why askest thou thus after my name, seeing it is secret? | 18 主の使は彼に言った、「わたしの名は不思議です。どうしてあなたはそれをたずねるのですか」。 |
| 13:19 So Manoah took the young goat with the meal offering, and offered it on the rock to Yahweh: and the angel did wondrously, and Manoah and his wife looked on. | 19 So Manoah took a kid with a meat offering, and offered it upon a rock unto the LORD: and the angel did wonderously; and Manoah and his wife looked on. | 19 そこでマノアは子やぎと素祭とをとり、岩の上でそれを主にささげた。主は不思議なことをされ、マノアとその妻はそれを見た。 |
| 13:20 For it happened, when the flame went up toward the sky from off the altar, that the angel of Yahweh ascended in the flame of the altar: and Manoah and his wife looked on; and they fell on their faces to the ground. | 20 For it came to pass, when the flame went up toward heaven from off the altar, that the angel of the LORD ascended in the flame of the altar. And Manoah and his wife looked on it, and fell on their faces to the ground. | 20 すなわち炎が祭壇から天にあがったとき、主の使は祭壇の炎のうちにあってのぼった。マノアとその妻は見て、地にひれ伏した。 |
| 13:21 But the angel of Yahweh did no more appear to Manoah or to his wife. Then Manoah knew that he was the angel of Yahweh. | 21 But the angel of the LORD did no more appear to Manoah and to his wife. Then Manoah knew that he was an angel of the LORD. | 21 主の使はふたたびマノアとその妻に現れなかった。その時マノアは彼が主の使であることを知った。 |
| 13:22 Manoah said to his wife, "We shall surely die, because we have seen God." | 22 And Manoah said unto his wife, We shall surely die, because we have seen God. | 22 マノアは妻に向かって言った、「わたしたちは神を見たから、きっと死ぬであろう」。 |
| 13:23 But his wife said to him, "If Yahweh were pleased to kill us, he wouldn't have received a burnt offering and a meal offering at our hand, neither would he have shown us all these things, nor would at this time have told such things as these." | 23 But his wife said unto him, If the LORD were pleased to kill us, he would not have received a burnt offering and a meat offering at our hands, neither would he have shewed us all these things, nor would as at this time have told us such things as these. | 23 妻は彼に言った、「主がもし、わたしたちを殺そうと思われたのならば、わたしたちの手から燔祭と素祭をおうけにならなかったでしょう。またこれらのすべての事をわたしたちにお示しになるはずはなく、また今わたしたちにこのような事をお告げにならなかったでしょう」。 |
| 13:24 The woman bore a son, and named him Samson: and the child grew, and Yahweh blessed him. | 24 And the woman bare a son, and called his name Samson: and the child grew, and the LORD blessed him. | 24 やがて女は男の子を産んで、その名をサムソンと呼んだ。その子は成長し、主は彼を恵まれた。 |
| 13:25 The Spirit of Yahweh began to move him in Mahaneh Dan, between Zorah and Eshtaol. | 25 And the Spirit of the LORD began to move him at times in the camp of Dan between Zorah and Eshtaol. | 25 主の霊はゾラとエシタオルの間のマハネダンにおいて初めて彼を感動させた。 |

| 14:1 Samson went down to Timnah, and saw a woman in Timnah of the daughters of the Philistines. | 1 And Samson went down to Timnath, and saw a woman in Timnath of the daughters of the Philistines. | 1 サムソンはテムナに下って行き、ペリシテびとの娘で、テムナに住むひとりの女を見た。 |
| 14:2 He came up, and told his father and his mother, and said, "I have seen a woman in Timnah of the daughters of the Philistines: now therefore get her for me as wife." | 2 And he came up, and told his father and his mother, and said, I have seen a woman in Timnath of the daughters of the Philistines: now therefore get her for me to wife. | 2 彼は帰ってきて父母に言った、「わたしはペリシテびとの娘で、テムナに住むひとりの女を見ました。彼女をめとってわたしの妻にしてください」。 |
| 14:3 Then his father and his mother said to him, "Is there never a woman among the daughters of your brothers, or among all my people, that you go to take a wife of the uncircumcised Philistines?" Samson said to his father, "Get her for me; for she pleases me well." | 3 Then his father and his mother said unto him, Is there never a woman among the daughters of thy brethren, or among all my people, that thou goest to take a wife of the uncircumcised Philistines? And Samson said unto his father, Get her for me; for she pleaseth me well. | 3 父母は言った、「あなたが行って、割礼をうけないペリシテびとのうちから妻を迎えようとするのは、身内の娘たちのうちに、あるいはわたしたちのすべての民のうちに女がないためなのですか」。しかしサムソンは父に言った、「彼女をわたしにめとってください。彼女はわたしの心にかないますから」。 |
| 14:4 But his father and his mother didn't know that it was of Yahweh; for he sought an occasion against the Philistines. Now at that time the Philistines had rule over Israel. | 4 But his father and his mother knew not that it was of the LORD, that he sought an occasion against the Philistines: for at that time the Philistines had dominion over Israel. | 4 父母はこの事が主から出たものであることを知らなかった。サムソンはペリシテびとを攻めようと、おりをうかがっていたからである。そのころペリシテびとはイスラエルを治めていた。 |
| 14:5 Then went Samson down, and his father and his mother, to Timnah, and came to the vineyards of Timnah: and behold, a young lion roared against him. | 5 Then went Samson down, and his father and his mother, to Timnath, and came to the vineyards of Timnath: and, behold, a young lion roared against him. | 5 かくてサムソンは父母と共にテムナに下って行った。彼がテムナのぶどう畑に着くと、一頭の若いししがほえたけって彼に向かってきた。 |
| 14:6 The Spirit of Yahweh came mightily on him, and he tore him as he would have torn a young goat; and he had nothing in his hand: but he didn't tell his father or his mother what he had done. | 6 And the Spirit of the LORD came mightily upon him, and he rent him as he would have rent a kid, and he had nothing in his hand: but he told not his father or his mother what he had done. | 6 時に主の霊が激しく彼に臨んだので、彼はあたかも子やぎを裂くようにそのししを裂いたが、手にはなんの武器も持っていなかった。しかしサムソンはそのしたことを父にも母にも告げなかった。 |
| 14:7 He went down, and talked with the woman, and she pleased Samson well. | 7 And he went down, and talked with the woman; and she pleased Samson well. | 7 サムソンは下って行って女と話し合ったが、女はサムソンの心にかなった。 |
| 14:8 After a while he returned to take her; and he turned aside to see the carcass of the lion: and behold, there was a swarm of bees in the body of the lion, and honey. | 8 And after a time he returned to take her, and he turned aside to see the carcase of the lion: and, behold, there was a swarm of bees and honey in the carcase of the lion. | 8 日がたって後、サムソンは彼女をめとろうとして帰ったが、道を転じて、かのししのしかばねを見ると、ししのからだに、はちの群れと、蜜があった。 |
| 14:9 He took it into his hands, and went on, eating as he went; and he came to his father and mother, and gave to them, and they ate: but he didn't tell them that he had taken the honey out of the body of the lion. | 9 And he took thereof in his hands, and went on eating, and came to his father and mother, and he gave them, and they did eat: but he told not them that he had taken the honey out of the carcase of the lion. | 9 彼はそれをかきあつめ、手にとって歩きながら食べ、父母のもとに帰って、彼らに与えたので、彼らもそれを食べた。しかし、ししのからだからその蜜をかきあつめたことは彼らに告げなかった。 |
| 14:10 His father went down to the woman: and Samson made there a feast; for so used the young men to do. | 10 So his father went down unto the woman: and Samson made there a feast; for so used the young men to do. | 10 そこで父が下って、女のもとに行ったので、サムソンはそこにふるまいを設けた。そうすることは花婿のならわしであったからである。 |
| 14:11 It happened, when they saw him, that they brought thirty companions to be with him. | 11 And it came to pass, when they saw him, that they brought thirty companions to be with him. | 11 人々はサムソンを見ると、三十人の客を連れてきて、同席させた。 |
| 14:12 Samson said to them, "Let me tell you a riddle now. If you can declare it to me within the seven days of the feast, and find it out, then I will give you thirty linen garments and thirty changes of clothing; | 12 And Samson said unto them, I will now put forth a riddle unto you: if ye can certainly declare it me within the seven days of the feast, and find it out, then I will give you thirty sheets and thirty change of garments: | 12 サムソンは彼らに言った、「わたしはあなたがたに一つのなぞを出しましょう。あなたがたがもし七日のふるまいのうちにそれを解いて、わたしに告げることができたなら、わたしはあなたがたに亜麻の着物三十と、晴れ着三十をさしあげましょう。 |
| 14:13 but if you can't declare it to me, then you shall give me thirty linen garments and thirty changes of clothing." They said to him, "Put forth your riddle, that we may hear it." | 13 But if ye cannot declare it me, then shall ye give me thirty sheets and thirty change of garments. And they said unto him, Put forth thy riddle, that we may hear it. | 13 しかしあなたがたが、それをわたしに告げることができなければ、亜麻の着物三十と晴れ着三十をわたしにくれなければなりません」。彼らはサムソンに言った、「なぞを出しなさい。わたしたちはそれを聞きましょう」。 |
| 14:14 He said to them, "Out of the eater came forth food.Out of the strong came forth sweetness." They couldn't in three days declare the riddle. | 14 And he said unto them, Out of the eater came forth meat, and out of the strong came forth sweetness. And they could not in three days expound the riddle. | 14 サムソンは彼らに言った、「食らう者から食い物が出、強い者から甘い物が出た」。彼らは三日のあいだなぞを解くことができなかった。 |
| 14:15 It happened on the seventh day, that they said to Samson's wife, "Entice your husband, that he may declare to us the riddle, lest we burn you and your father's house with fire. Have you called us to impoverish us? Is it not so?" | 15 And it came to pass on the seventh day, that they said unto Samson's wife, Entice thy husband, that he may declare unto us the riddle, lest we burn thee and thy father's house with fire: have ye called us to take that we have? is it not so? | 15 四日目になって、彼らはサムソンの妻に言った、「あなたの夫を説きすすめて、なぞをわたしたちに明かすようにしてください。そうしなければ、わたしたちは火をつけてあなたとあなたの父の家を焼いてしまいます。あなたはわたしたちの物を取るために、わたしたちを招いたのですか」。 |
| 14:16 Samson's wife wept before him, and said, "You just hate me, and don't love me. You have put forth a riddle to the children of my people, and haven't told it me." He said to her, "Behold, I haven't told it my father nor my mother, and shall I tell you?" | 16 And Samson's wife wept before him, and said, Thou dost but hate me, and lovest me not: thou hast put forth a riddle unto the children of my people, and hast not told it me. And he said unto her, Behold, I have not told it my father nor my mother, and shall I tell it thee? | 16 そこでサムソンの妻はサムソンの前に泣いて言った、「あなたはただわたしを憎むだけで、愛してくれません。あなたはわたしの国の人々になぞを出して、それをわたしに解き明かしませんでした」。サムソンは彼女に言った、「わたしは自分の父にも母にも解き明かさなかった。どうしてあなたに解き明かせよう」。 |
| 14:17 She wept before him the seven days, while their feast lasted: and it happened on the seventh day, that he told her, because she pressed him sore; and she told the riddle to the children of her people. | 17 And she wept before him the seven days, while their feast lasted: and it came to pass on the seventh day, that he told her, because she lay sore upon him: and she told the riddle to the children of her people. | 17 彼女は七日のふるまいの間、彼の前に泣いていたが、七日目になって、サムソンはついに彼女に解き明かした。ひどく彼に迫ったからである。そこで彼女はなぞを自分の国の人々にあかした。 |
| 14:18 The men of the city said to him on the seventh day before the sun went down, "What is sweeter than honey? What is stronger than a lion?" He said to them, "If you hadn't plowed with my heifer,you wouldn't have found out my riddle." | 18 And the men of the city said unto him on the seventh day before the sun went down, What is sweeter than honey? And what is stronger than a lion? and he said unto them, If ye had not plowed with my heifer, ye had not found out my riddle. | 18 七日目になって、日の没する前に町の人々はサムソンに言った、「蜜より甘いものに何があろう。ししより強いものに何があろう」。サムソンは彼らに言った、「わたしの若い雌牛で耕さなかったなら、わたしのなぞは解けなかった」。 |
| 14:19 The Spirit of Yahweh came mightily on him, and he went down to Ashkelon, and struck thirty men of them, and took their spoil, and gave the changes of clothing to those who declared the riddle. His anger was kindled, and he went up to his father's house. | 19 And the Spirit of the LORD came upon him, and he went down to Ashkelon, and slew thirty men of them, and took their spoil, and gave change of garments unto them which expounded the riddle. And his anger was kindled, and he went up to his father's house. | 19 この時、主の霊が激しくサムソンに臨んだので、サムソンはアシケロンに下って行って、その町の者三十人を殺し、彼らからはぎ取って、かのなぞを解いた人々に、その晴れ着を与え、激しく怒って父の家に帰った。 |
| 14:20 But Samson's wife was given to his companion, whom he had used as his friend. | 20 But Samson's wife was given to his companion, whom he had used as his friend. | 20 サムソンの妻は花婿付添人であった客の妻となった。 |

| 15:1 But it happened after a while, in the time of wheat harvest, that Samson visited his wife with a young goat; and he said, "I will go in to my wife into the chamber." But her father wouldn't allow him to go in. | 1 But it came to pass within a while after, in the time of wheat harvest, that Samson visited his wife with a kid; and he said, I will go in to my wife into the chamber. But her father would not suffer him to go in. | 1 日がたって後、麦刈の時にサムソンは子やぎを携えて妻をおとずれ、「へやにはいって、妻に会いましょう」と言ったが、妻の父ははいることを許さなかった。 |
| 15:2 Her father said, "I most certainly thought that you had utterly hated her; therefore I gave her to your companion. Isn't her younger sister more beautiful than she? Please take her, instead." | 2 And her father said, I verily thought that thou hadst utterly hated her; therefore I gave her to thy companion: is not her younger sister fairer than she? take her, I pray thee, instead of her. | 2 そして父は言った、「あなたが確かに彼女をきらったに相違ないと思ったので、わたしは彼女をあなたの客であった者にやりました。彼女の妹は彼女よりもきれいではありませんか。どうぞ、彼女の代りに妹をめとってください」。 |
| 15:3 Samson said to them, "This time I will be blameless in regard of the Philistines, when I harm them." | 3 And Samson said concerning them, Now shall I be more blameless than the Philistines, though I do them a displeasure. | 3 サムソンは彼らに言った、「今度はわたしがペリシテびとに害を加えても、彼らのことでは、わたしに罪がない」。 |
| 15:4 Samson went and caught three hundred foxes, and took torches, and turned tail to tail, and put a torch in the midst between every two tails. | 4 And Samson went and caught three hundred foxes, and took firebrands, and turned tail to tail, and put a firebrand in the midst between two tails. | 4 そこでサムソンは行って、きつね三百匹を捕え、たいまつをとり、尾と尾をあわせて、その二つの尾の間に一つのたいまつを結びつけ、 |
| 15:5 When he had set the brands on fire, he let them go into the standing grain of the Philistines, and burnt up both the shocks and the standing grain, and also the olive groves. | 5 And when he had set the brands on fire, he let them go into the standing corn of the Philistines, and burnt up both the shocks, and also the standing corn, with the vineyards and olives. | 5 たいまつに火をつけて、そのきつねをペリシテびとのまだ刈らない麦の中に放し入れ、そのたばね積んだものと、まだ刈らないものとを焼き、オリブ畑をも焼いた。 |
| 15:6 Then the Philistines said, "Who has done this?" They said, "Samson, the son-in-law of the Timnite, because he has taken his wife, and given her to his companion." The Philistines came up, and burnt her and her father with fire. | 6 Then the Philistines said, Who hath done this? And they answered, Samson, the son in law of the Timnite, because he had taken his wife, and given her to his companion. And the Philistines came up, and burnt her and her father with fire. | 6 ペリシテびとは言った、「これはだれのしわざか」。人々は言った、「テムナびとの婿サムソンだ。そのしゅうとがサムソンの妻を取り返して、その客であった者に与えたからだ」。そこでペリシテびとは上ってきて彼女とその父の家を火で焼き払った。 |
| 15:7 Samson said to them, "If you behave like this, surely I will be avenged of you, and after that I will cease." | 7 And Samson said unto them, Though ye have done this, yet will I be avenged of you, and after that I will cease. | 7 サムソンは彼らに言った、「あなたがたがそんなことをするならば、わたしはあなたがたに仕返しせずにはおかない」。 |
| 15:8 He struck them hip and thigh with a great slaughter: and he went down and lived in the cleft of the rock of Etam. | 8 And he smote them hip and thigh with a great slaughter: and he went down and dwelt in the top of the rock Etam. | 8 そしてサムソンは彼らを、さんざんに撃って大ぜい殺した。こうしてサムソンは下って行って、エタムの岩の裂け目に住んでいた。 |
| 15:9 Then the Philistines went up, and encamped in Judah, and spread themselves in Lehi. | 9 Then the Philistines went up, and pitched in Judah, and spread themselves in Lehi. | 9 そこでペリシテびとは上ってきて、ユダに陣を取り、レヒを攻めたので、 |
| 15:10 The men of Judah said, "Why have you come up against us?" They said, "We have come up to bind Samson, to do to him as he has done to us." | 10 And the men of Judah said, Why are ye come up against us? And they answered, To bind Samson are we come up, to do to him as he hath done to us. | 10 ユダの人々は言った、「あなたがたはどうしてわれわれのところに攻めのぼってきたのですか」。彼らは言った、「われわれはサムソンを縛り、彼がわれわれにしたように、彼にするために上ってきたのです」。 |
| 15:11 Then three thousand men of Judah went down to the cleft of the rock of Etam, and said to Samson, "Don't you know that the Philistines are rulers over us? What then is this that you have done to us?" He said to them, "As they did to me, so have I done to them." | 11 Then three thousand men of Judah went to the top of the rock Etam, and said to Samson, Knowest thou not that the Philistines are rulers over us? what is this that thou hast done unto us? And he said unto them, As they did unto me, so have I done unto them. | 11 そこでユダの人々三千人がエタムの岩の裂け目に下って行って、サムソンに言った、「ペリシテびとはわれわれの支配者であることをあなたは知らないのですか。あなたはどうしてわれわれにこんな事をしたのですか」。サムソンは彼らに言った、「彼らがわたしにしたように、わたしは彼らにしたのです」。 |
| 15:12 They said to him, "We have come down to bind you, that we may deliver you into the hand of the Philistines." Samson said to them, "Swear to me that you will not fall on me yourselves." | 12 And they said unto him, We are come down to bind thee, that we may deliver thee into the hand of the Philistines. And Samson said unto them, Swear unto me, that ye will not fall upon me yourselves. | 12 彼らはまたサムソンに言った、「われわれはあなたを縛って、ペリシテびとの手にわたすために下ってきたのです」。サムソンは彼らに言った、「あなたがた自身はわたしを撃たないということを誓いなさい」。 |
| 15:13 They spoke to him, saying, "No; but we will bind you fast, and deliver you into their hand; but surely we will not kill you." They bound him with two new ropes, and brought him up from the rock. | 13 And they spake unto him, saying, No; but we will bind thee fast, and deliver thee into their hand: but surely we will not kill thee. And they bound him with two new cords, and brought him up from the rock. | 13 彼らはサムソンに言った、「いや、われわれはただ、あなたを縛って、ペリシテびとの手にわたすだけです。決してあなたを殺しません」。彼らは二本の新しい綱をもって彼を縛って、岩からひきあげた。 |
| 15:14 When he came to Lehi, the Philistines shouted as they met him: and the Spirit of Yahweh came mightily on him, and the ropes that were on his arms became as flax that was burnt with fire, and his bands dropped from off his hands. | 14 And when he came unto Lehi, the Philistines shouted against him: and the Spirit of the LORD came mightily upon him, and the cords that were upon his arms became as flax that was burnt with fire, and his bands loosed from off his hands. | 14 サムソンがレヒにきたとき、ペリシテびとは声をあげて、彼に近づいた。その時、主の霊が激しく彼に臨んだので、彼の腕にかかっていた綱は火に焼けた亜麻のようになって、そのなわめが手から解けて落ちた。 |
| 15:15 He found a fresh jawbone of a donkey, and put forth his hand, and took it, and struck a thousand men therewith. | 15 And he found a new jawbone of an ass, and put forth his hand, and took it, and slew a thousand men therewith. | 15 彼はろばの新しいあご骨一つを見つけたので、手を伸べて取り、それをもって一千人を打ち殺した。 |
| 15:16 Samson said, "With the jawbone of a donkey, heaps on heaps; with the jawbone of a donkey I have struck a thousand men." | 16 And Samson said, With the jawbone of an ass, heaps upon heaps, with the jaw of an ass have I slain a thousand men. | 16 そしてサムソンは言った、「ろばのあご骨をもって山また山を築き、ろばのあご骨をもって一千人を打ち殺した」。 |
| 15:17 It happened, when he had made an end of speaking, that he cast away the jawbone out of his hand; and that place was called Ramath Lehi. | 17 And it came to pass, when he had made an end of speaking, that he cast away the jawbone out of his hand, and called that place Ramathlehi. | 17 彼は言い終ると、その手からあご骨を投げすてた。これがためにその所は「あご骨の丘」と呼ばれた。 |
| 15:18 He was very thirsty, and called on Yahweh, and said, "You have given this great deliverance by the hand of your servant; and now shall I die for thirst, and fall into the hand of the uncircumcised?" | 18 And he was sore athirst, and called on the LORD, and said, Thou hast given this great deliverance into the hand of thy servant: and now shall I die for thirst, and fall into the hand of the uncircumcised? | 18 時に彼はひどくかわきを覚えたので、主に呼ばわって言った、「あなたはしもべの手をもって、この大きな救を施されたのに、わたしは今、かわいて死に、割礼をうけないものの手に陥ろうとしています」。 |
| 15:19 But God split the hollow place that is in Lehi, and water came out of it. When he had drunk, his spirit came again, and he revived: therefore its name was called En Hakkore, which is in Lehi, to this day. | 19 But God clave an hollow place that was in the jaw, and there came water thereout; and when he had drunk, his spirit came again, and he revived: wherefore he called the name thereof Enhakkore, which is in Lehi unto this day. | 19 そこで神はレヒにあるくぼんだ所を裂かれたので、そこから水が流れ出た。サムソンがそれを飲むと彼の霊はもとにかえって元気づいた。それでその名を「呼ばわった者の泉」と呼んだ。これは今日までレヒにある。 |
| 15:20 He judged Israel in the days of the Philistines twenty years. | 20 And he judged Israel in the days of the Philistines twenty years. | 20 サムソンはペリシテびとの時代に二十年の間イスラエルをさばいた。 |

| 16:1 Samson went to Gaza, and saw there a prostitute, and went in to her. | 1 Then went Samson to Gaza, and saw there an harlot, and went in unto her. | 1 サムソンはガザへ行って、そこでひとりの遊女を見、その女のところにはいった。 |
| 16:2 It was told the Gazites, saying, "Samson is here!" They surrounded him, and laid wait for him all night in the gate of the city, and were quiet all the night, saying, Let be until morning light, then we will kill him. | 2 And it was told the Gazites, saying, Samson is come hither. And they compassed him in, and laid wait for him all night in the gate of the city, and were quiet all the night, saying, In the morning, when it is day, we shall kill him. | 2 「サムソンがここにきた」と、ガザの人々に告げるものがあったので、ガザの人々はその所を取り囲み、夜通し町の門で待ち伏せし、「われわれは朝まで待って彼を殺そう」と言って、夜通し静かにしていた。 |
| 16:3 Samson lay until midnight, and arose at midnight, and laid hold of the doors of the gate of the city, and the two posts, and plucked them up, bar and all, and put them on his shoulders, and carried them up to the top of the mountain that is before Hebron. | 3 And Samson lay till midnight, and arose at midnight, and took the doors of the gate of the city, and the two posts, and went away with them, bar and all, and put them upon his shoulders, and carried them up to the top of an hill that is before Hebron. | 3 サムソンは夜中まで寝たが、夜中に起きて、町の門のとびらと二つの門柱に手をかけて、貫の木もろともに引き抜き、肩に載せて、ヘブロンの向かいにある山の頂に運んで行った。 |
| 16:4 It came to pass afterward, that he loved a woman in the valley of Sorek, whose name was Delilah. | 4 And it came to pass afterward, that he loved a woman in the valley of Sorek, whose name was Delilah. | 4 この後、サムソンはソレクの谷にいるデリラという女を愛した。 |
| 16:5 The lords of the Philistines came up to her, and said to her, "Entice him, and see in which his great strength lies, and by what means we may prevail against him, that we may bind him to afflict him; and we will each give you eleven hundred pieces of silver." | 5 And the lords of the Philistines came up unto her, and said unto her, Entice him, and see wherein his great strength lieth, and by what means we may prevail against him, that we may bind him to afflict him; and we will give thee every one of us eleven hundred pieces of silver. | 5 ペリシテびとの君たちはその女のところにきて言った、「あなたはサムソンを説きすすめて、彼の大力はどこにあるのか、またわれわれはどうすれば彼に勝って、彼を縛り苦しめることができるかを見つけなさい。そうすればわれわれはおのおの銀千百枚ずつをあなたにさしあげましょう」。 |
| 16:6 Delilah said to Samson, "Tell me, please, where your great strength lies, and what you might be bound to afflict you." | 6 And Delilah said to Samson, Tell me, I pray thee, wherein thy great strength lieth, and wherewith thou mightest be bound to afflict thee. | 6 そこでデリラはサムソンに言った、「あなたの大力はどこにあるのか、またどうすればあなたを縛って苦しめることができるか、どうぞわたしに聞かせてください」。 |
| 16:7 Samson said to her, "If they bind me with seven green cords that were never dried, then shall I become weak, and be as another man." | 7 And Samson said unto her, If they bind me with seven green withs that were never dried, then shall I be weak, and be as another man. | 7 サムソンは女に言った、「人々がもし、かわいたことのない七本の新しい弓弦をもってわたしを縛るなら、わたしは弱くなってほかの人のようになるでしょう」。 |
| 16:8 Then the lords of the Philistines brought up to her seven green cords which had not been dried, and she bound him with them. | 8 Then the lords of the Philistines brought up to her seven green withs which had not been dried, and she bound him with them. | 8 そこでペリシテびとの君たちが、かわいたことのない七本の新しい弓弦を女に持ってきたので、女はそれをもってサムソンを縛った。 |
| 16:9 Now she had an ambush waiting in the inner chamber. She said to him, "The Philistines are on you, Samson!" He broke the cords, as a string of tow is broken when it touches the fire. So his strength was not known. | 9 Now there were men lying in wait, abiding with her in the chamber. And she said unto him, The Philistines be upon thee, Samson. And he brake the withs, as a thread of tow is broken when it toucheth the fire. So his strength was not known. | 9 女はかねて奥のへやに人を忍ばせておいて、サムソンに言った、「サムソンよ、ペリシテびとがあなたに迫っています」。しかしサムソンはその弓弦を、あたかも亜麻糸が火にあって断たれるように断ち切った。こうして彼の力の秘密は知れなかった。 |
| 16:10 Delilah said to Samson, "Behold, you have mocked me, and told me lies: now tell me, please, with which you might be bound." | 10 And Delilah said unto Samson, Behold, thou hast mocked me, and told me lies: now tell me, I pray thee, wherewith thou mightest be bound. | 10 デリラはサムソンに言った、「あなたはわたしを欺いて、うそを言いました。どうしたらあなたを縛ることができるか、どうぞ今わたしに聞かせてください」。 |
| 16:11 He said to her, "If they only bind me with new ropes with which no work has been done, then shall I become weak, and be as another man." | 11 And he said unto her, If they bind me fast with new ropes that never were occupied, then shall I be weak, and be as another man. | 11 サムソンは女に言った、「もし人々がまだ用いたことのない新しい綱をもって、わたしを縛るなら、弱くなってほかの人のようになるでしょう」。 |
| 16:12 So Delilah took new ropes, and bound him therewith, and said to him, "The Philistines are on you, Samson!" The ambush was waiting in the inner chamber. He broke them off his arms like a thread. | 12 Delilah therefore took new ropes, and bound him therewith, and said unto him, The Philistines be upon thee, Samson. And there were liers in wait abiding in the chamber. And he brake them from off his arms like a thread. | 12 そこでデリラは新しい綱をとり、それをもって彼を縛り、そして彼に言った、「サムソンよ、ペリシテびとがあなたに迫っています」。時に人々は奥のへやに忍んでいたが、サムソンはその綱を糸のように腕から断ち落した。 |
| 16:13 Delilah said to Samson, "Until now, you have mocked me and told me lies. Tell me with what you might be bound." He said to her, "If you weave the seven locks of my head with the web." | 13 And Delilah said unto Samson, Hitherto thou hast mocked me, and told me lies: tell me wherewith thou mightest be bound. And he said unto her, If thou weavest the seven locks of my head with the web. | 13 そこでデリラはサムソンに言った、「あなたは今まで、わたしを欺いて、うそを言いましたが、どうしたらあなたを縛ることができるか、わたしに聞かせてください」。彼は女に言った、「あなたがもし、わたしの髪の毛七ふさを機の縦糸と一緒に織って、くぎでそれを留めておくならば、わたしは弱くなってほかの人のようになるでしょう」。そこで彼が眠ったとき、デリラはサムソンの髪の毛、七ふさをとって、それを機の縦糸に織り込み、 |
| 16:14 She fastened it with the pin, and said to him, "The Philistines are on you, Samson!" He awakened out of his sleep, and plucked away the pin of the beam, and the web. | 14 And she fastened it with the pin, and said unto him, The Philistines be upon thee, Samson. And he awaked out of his sleep, and went away with the pin of the beam, and with the web. | 14 くぎでそれを留めておいて、彼に言った、「サムソンよ、ペリシテびとがあなたに迫っています」。しかしサムソンは目をさまして、くぎと機と縦糸とを引き抜いた。 |
| 16:15 She said to him, "How can you say, 'I love you,' when your heart is not with me? You have mocked me these three times, and have not told me where your great strength lies." | 15 And she said unto him, How canst thou say, I love thee, when thine heart is not with me? thou hast mocked me these three times, and hast not told me wherein thy great strength lieth. | 15 そこで女はサムソンに言った、「あなたの心がわたしを離れているのに、どうして『おまえを愛する』と言うことができますか。あなたはすでに三度もわたしを欺き、あなたの大力がどこにあるかをわたしに告げませんでした」。 |
| 16:16 It happened, when she pressed him daily with her words, and urged him, that his soul was troubled to death. | 16 And it came to pass, when she pressed him daily with her words, and urged him, so that his soul was vexed unto death; | 16 女は毎日その言葉をもって彼に迫り促したので、彼の魂は死ぬばかりに苦しんだ。 |
| 16:17 He told her all his heart, and said to her, "No razor has ever come on my head; for I have been a Nazirite to God from my mother's womb. If I am shaved, then my strength will go from me, and I will become weak, and be like any other man." | 17 That he told her all his heart, and said unto her, There hath not come a razor upon mine head; for I have been a Nazarite unto God from my mother's womb: if I be shaven, then my strength will go from me, and I shall become weak, and be like any other man. | 17 彼はついにその心をことごとく打ち明けて女に言った、「わたしの頭にはかみそりを当てたことがありません。わたしは生れた時から神にささげられたナジルびとだからです。もし髪をそり落されたなら、わたしの力は去って弱くなり、ほかの人のようになるでしょう」。 |
| 16:18 When Delilah saw that he had told her all his heart, she sent and called for the lords of the Philistines, saying, "Come up this once, for he has told me all his heart." Then the lords of the Philistines came up to her, and brought the money in their hand. | 18 And when Delilah saw that he had told her all his heart, she sent and called for the lords of the Philistines, saying, Come up this once, for he hath shewed me all his heart. Then the lords of the Philistines came up unto her, and brought money in their hand. | 18 デリラはサムソンがその心をことごとく打ち明けたのを見、人をつかわしてペリシテびとの君たちを呼んで言った、「サムソンはその心をことごとくわたしに打ち明けましたから、今度こそ上っておいでなさい」。そこでペリシテびとの君たちは、銀を携えて女のもとに上ってきた。 |
| 16:19 She made him sleep on her knees; and she called for a man, and shaved off the seven locks of his head; and she began to afflict him, and his strength went from him. | 19 And she made him sleep upon her knees; and she called for a man, and she caused him to shave off the seven locks of his head; and she began to afflict him, and his strength went from him. | 19 女は自分のひざの上にサムソンを眠らせ、人を呼んで髪の毛、七ふさをそり落させ、彼を苦しめ始めたが、その力は彼を去っていた。 |
| 16:20 She said, "The Philistines are upon you, Samson!" He awoke out of his sleep, and said, "I will go out as at other times, and shake myself free." But he didn't know that Yahweh had departed from him. | 20 And she said, The Philistines be upon thee, Samson. And he awoke out of his sleep, and said, I will go out as at other times before, and shake myself. And he wist not that the LORD was departed from him. | 20 そして女が「サムソンよ、ペリシテびとがあなたに迫っています」と言ったので、彼は目をさまして言った、「わたしはいつものように出て行って、からだをゆすろう」。彼は主が自分を去られたことを知らなかった。 |
| 16:21 The Philistines laid hold on him, and put out his eyes; and they brought him down to Gaza, and bound him with fetters of brass; and he ground at the mill in the prison. | 21 But the Philistines took him, and put out his eyes, and brought him down to Gaza, and bound him with fetters of brass; and he did grind in the prison house. | 21 そこでペリシテびとは彼を捕えて、両眼をえぐり、ガザに引いて行って、青銅の足かせをかけて彼をつないだ。こうしてサムソンは獄屋の中で、うすをひいていたが、 |
| 16:22 However the hair of his head began to grow again after he was shaved. | 22 Howbeit the hair of his head began to grow again after he was shaven. | 22 その髪の毛はそり落された後、ふたたび伸び始めた。 |
| 16:23 The lords of the Philistines gathered them together to offer a great sacrifice to Dagon their god, and to rejoice; for they said, "Our god has delivered Samson our enemy into our hand." | 23 Then the lords of the Philistines gathered them together for to offer a great sacrifice unto Dagon their god, and to rejoice: for they said, Our god hath delivered Samson our enemy into our hand. | 23 さてペリシテびとの君たちは、彼らの神ダゴンに大いなる犠牲をささげて祝をしようと、共に集まって言った、「われわれの神は、敵サムソンをわれわれの手にわたされた」。 |
| 16:24 When the people saw him, they praised their god; for they said, "Our god has delivered our enemy and the destroyer of our country, who has slain many of us, into our hand." | 24 And when the people saw him, they praised their god: for they said, Our god hath delivered into our hands our enemy, and the destroyer of our country, which slew many of us. | 24 民はサムソンを見て、自分たちの神をほめたたえて言った、「われわれの神は、われわれの国を荒し、われわれを多く殺した敵をわれわれの手にわたされた」。 |
| 16:25 It happened, when their hearts were merry, that they said, "Call for Samson, that he may entertain us." They called for Samson out of the prison; and he performed before them. They set him between the pillars; | 25 And it came to pass, when their hearts were merry, that they said, Call for Samson, that he may make us sport. And they called for Samson out of the prison house; and he made them sport: and they set him between the pillars. | 25 彼らはまた心に喜んで言った、「サムソンを呼んで、われわれのために戯れ事をさせよう」。彼らは獄屋からサムソンを呼び出して、彼らの前に戯れ事をさせた。彼らがサムソンを柱のあいだに立たせると、 |
| 16:26 and Samson said to the boy who held him by the hand, "Allow me to feel the pillars whereupon the house rests, that I may lean on them." | 26 And Samson said unto the lad that held him by the hand, Suffer me that I may feel the pillars whereupon the house standeth, that I may lean upon them. | 26 サムソンは自分の手をひいている若者に言った、「わたしの手を放して、この家をささえている柱をさぐらせ、それに寄りかからせてください」。 |
| 16:27 Now the house was full of men and women; and all the lords of the Philistines were there; and there were on the roof about three thousand men and women, who saw while Samson performed. | 27 Now the house was full of men and women; and all the lords of the Philistines were there; and there were upon the roof about three thousand men and women, that beheld while Samson made sport. | 27 その家には男女が満ち、ペリシテびとの君たちも皆そこにいた。また屋根の上には三千人ばかりの男女がいて、サムソンの戯れ事をするのを見ていた。 |
| 16:28 Samson called to Yahweh, and said, "Lord Yahweh, remember me, please, and strengthen me, please, only this once, God, that I may be at once avenged of the Philistines for my two eyes." | 28 And Samson called unto the LORD, and said, O Lord God, remember me, I pray thee, and strengthen me, I pray thee, only this once, O God, that I may be at once avenged of the Philistines for my two eyes. | 28 サムソンは主に呼ばわって言った、「ああ、主なる神よ、どうぞ、わたしを覚えてください。ああ、神よ、どうぞもう一度、わたしを強くして、わたしの二つの目の一つのためにでもペリシテびとにあだを報いさせてください」。 |
| 16:29 Samson took hold of the two middle pillars on which the house rested, and leaned on them, the one with his right hand, and the other with his left. | 29 And Samson took hold of the two middle pillars upon which the house stood, and on which it was borne up, of the one with his right hand, and of the other with his left. | 29 そしてサムソンは、その家をささえている二つの中柱の一つを右の手に、一つを左の手にかかえて、身をそれに寄せ、 |
| 16:30 Samson said, "Let me die with the Philistines!" He bowed himself with all his might; and the house fell on the lords, and on all the people who were therein. So the dead that he killed at his death were more than those who he killed in his life. | 30 And Samson said, Let me die with the Philistines. And he bowed himself with all his might; and the house fell upon the lords, and upon all the people that were therein. So the dead which he slew at his death were more than they which he slew in his life. | 30 「わたしはペリシテびとと共に死のう」と言って、力をこめて身をかがめると、家はその中にいた君たちと、すべての民の上に倒れた。こうしてサムソンが死ぬときに殺したものは、生きているときに殺したものよりも多かった。 |
| 16:31 Then his brothers and all the house of his father came down, and took him, and brought him up, and buried him between Zorah and Eshtaol in the burial site of Manoah his father. He judged Israel twenty years. | 31 Then his brethren and all the house of his father came down, and took him, and brought him up, and buried him between Zorah and Eshtaol in the buryingplace of Manoah his father. And he judged Israel twenty years. | 31 やがて彼の身内の人たちおよび父の家族の者がみな下ってきて、彼を引き取り、携え上って、ゾラとエシタオルの間にある父マノアの墓に葬った。サムソンがイスラエルをさばいたのは二十年であった。 |

| 17:1 There was a man of the hill country of Ephraim, whose name was Micah. | 1 And there was a man of mount Ephraim, whose name was Micah. | 1 ここにエフライムの山地の人で、名をミカと呼ぶものがあった。 |
| 17:2 He said to his mother, "The eleven hundred pieces of silver that were taken from you, about which you uttered a curse, and also spoke it in my ears, behold, the silver is with me; I took it." His mother said, "Blessed be my son of Yahweh." | 2 And he said unto his mother, The eleven hundred shekels of silver that were taken from thee, about which thou cursedst, and spakest of also in mine ears, behold, the silver is with me; I took it. And his mother said, Blessed be thou of the LORD, my son. | 2 彼は母に言った、「あなたはかつて銀千百枚を取られたので、それをのろい、わたしにも話されましたが、その銀はわたしが持っています。わたしがそれを取ったのです」。母は言った、「どうぞ主がわが子を祝福されますように」。 |
| 17:3 He restored the eleven hundred pieces of silver to his mother; and his mother said, "I most certainly dedicate the silver to Yahweh from my hand for my son, to make an engraved image and a molten image. Now therefore I will restore it to you." | 3 And when he had restored the eleven hundred shekels of silver to his mother, his mother said, I had wholly dedicated the silver unto the LORD from my hand for my son, to make a graven image and a molten image: now therefore I will restore it unto thee. | 3 そして彼が銀千百枚を母に返したので、母は言った、「わたしはわたしの子のために一つの刻んだ像と、一つの鋳た像を造るためにその銀をわたしの手から主に献納します。それで今それをあなたに返しましょう」。 |
| 17:4 When he restored the money to his mother, his mother took two hundred pieces of silver, and gave them to the founder, who made of it an engraved image and a molten image: and it was in the house of Micah. | 4 Yet he restored the money unto his mother; and his mother took two hundred shekels of silver, and gave them to the founder, who made thereof a graven image and a molten image: and they were in the house of Micah. | 4 ミカがその銀を母に返したので、母はその銀二百枚をとって、それを銀細工人に与え、一つの刻んだ像と、一つの鋳た像を造らせた。その像はミカの家にあった。 |

| 17:8 The man departed out of the city, out of Bethlehem Judah, to sojourn where he could find a place, and he came to the hill country of Ephraim to the house of Micah, as he traveled. | 8 And the man departed out of the city from Bethlehemjudah to sojourn where he could find a place: and he came to mount Ephraim to the house of Micah, as he journeyed. | 8 この人は自分の住むべきところを尋ねて、ユダのベツレヘムの町を去り、旅してエフライムの山地のミカの家にきた。 |
| 17:9 Micah said to him, "Where did you come from?" He said to him, "I am a Levite of Bethlehem Judah, and I am looking for a place to live." | 9 And Micah said unto him, Whence comest thou? And he said unto him, I am a Levite of Bethlehemjudah, and I go to sojourn where I may find a place. | 9 ミカは彼に言った、「あなたはどこからおいでになりましたか」。彼は言った、「わたしはユダのベツレヘムのレビびとですが、住むべきところを尋ねて旅をしているのです」。 |
| 17:10 Micah said to him, "Dwell with me, and be to me a father and a priest, and I will give you ten pieces of silver per year, a suit of clothing, and your food." So the Levite went in. | 10 And Micah said unto him, Dwell with me, and be unto me a father and a priest, and I will give thee ten shekels of silver by the year, and a suit of apparel, and thy victuals. So the Levite went in. | 10 ミカは言った、「わたしと一緒にいて、わたしのために父とも祭司ともなってください。そうすれば年に銀十枚と衣服ひとそろいと食物とをさしあげましょう」。 |
| 17:11 The Levite was content to dwell with the man; and the young man was to him as one of his sons. | 11 And the Levite was content to dwell with the man; and the young man was unto him as one of his sons. | 11 レビびとはついにその人と一緒に住むことを承諾した。そしてその若者は彼の子のひとりのようになった。 |

| 18:1 In those days there was no king in Israel: and in those days the tribe of the Danites sought them an inheritance to dwell in; for to that day their inheritance had not fallen to them among the tribes of Israel. | 1 In those days there was no king in Israel: and in those days the tribe of the Danites sought them an inheritance to dwell in; for unto that day all their inheritance had not fallen unto them among the tribes of Israel. | 1 そのころイスラエルには王がなかった。そのころダンびとの部族はイスラエルの部族のうちにあって、その日までまだ嗣業の地を得なかったので自分たちの住むべき嗣業の地を求めていた。 |
| 18:2 The children of Dan sent of their family five men from their whole number, men of valor, from Zorah, and from Eshtaol, to spy out the land, and to search it; and they said to them, "Go, explore the land!" They came to the hill country of Ephraim, to the house of Micah, and lodged there. | 2 And the children of Dan sent of their family five men from their coasts, men of valour, from Zorah, and from Eshtaol, to spy out the land, and to search it; and they said unto them, Go, search the land: who when they came to mount Ephraim, to the house of Micah, they lodged there. | 2 それでダンの人々は自分の部族の総勢のうちから、勇者五人をゾラとエシタオルからつかわして土地をうかがい探らせた。すなわち彼らに言った、「行って土地を探ってきなさい」。彼らはエフライムの山地に行き、ミカの家に着いて、そこに宿ろうとした。 |
| 18:3 When they were by the house of Micah, they knew the voice of the young man the Levite; and they turned aside there, and said to him, "Who brought you here? What do you do in this place? What do you have here?" | 3 When they were by the house of Micah, they knew the voice of the young man the Levite: and they turned in thither, and said unto him, Who brought thee hither? and what makest thou in this place? and what hast thou here? | 3 彼らがミカの家に近づいたとき、レビびとである若者の声を聞きわけたので、身をめぐらしてそこにはいって彼に言った、「だれがあなたをここに連れてきたのですか。あなたはここで何をしているのですか。ここになんの用があるのですか」。 |
| 18:4 He said to them, "Thus and thus has Micah dealt with me, and he has hired me, and I am become his priest." | 4 And he said unto them, Thus and thus dealeth Micah with me, and hath hired me, and I am his priest. | 4 若者は彼らに言った、「ミカが、かようかようにしてわたしを雇ったので、わたしはその祭司となったのです」。 |
| 18:5 They said to him, "Ask counsel, please, of God, that we may know whether our way which we go shall be prosperous." | 5 And they said unto him, Ask counsel, we pray thee, of God, that we may know whether our way which we go shall be prosperous. | 5 彼らは言った、「どうぞ、神に伺って、われわれが行く道にしあわせがあるかどうかを知らせてください」。 |
| 18:6 The priest said to them, "Go in peace. Your way in which you go is before Yahweh." | 6 And the priest said unto them, Go in peace: before the LORD is your way wherein ye go. | 6 その祭司は彼らに言った、「安心して行きなさい。あなたがたが行く道は主が見守っておられます」。 |
| 18:7 Then the five men departed, and came to Laish, and saw the people who were therein, how they lived in security, after the manner of the Sidonians, quiet and secure; for there was none in the land, possessing authority, that might put them to shame in anything, and they were far from the Sidonians, and had no dealings with any man. | 7 Then the five men departed, and came to Laish, and saw the people that were therein, how they dwelt careless, after the manner of the Zidonians, quiet and secure; and there was no magistrate in the land, that might put them to shame in any thing; and they were far from the Zidonians, and had no business with any man. | 7 そこで五人の者は去ってライシに行き、そこにいる民を見ると、彼らは安らかに住まい、その穏やかで安らかなことシドンびとのようであって、この国には一つとして欠けたものがなく、富を持ち、またシドンびとと遠く離れており、ほかの民と交わることがなかった。 |
| 18:8 They came to their brothers to Zorah and Eshtaol: and their brothers said to them, "What do you say?" | 8 And they came unto their brethren to Zorah and Eshtaol: and their brethren said unto them, What say ye? | 8 かくて彼らがゾラとエシタオルにおる兄弟たちのもとに帰ってくると、兄弟たちは彼らに言った、「いかがでしたか」。 |
| 18:9 They said, "Arise, and let us go up against them; for we have seen the land, and behold, it is very good. Do you stand still? Don't be slothful to go and to enter in to possess the land. | 9 And they said, Arise, that we may go up against them: for we have seen the land, and, behold, it is very good: and are ye still? be not slothful to go, and to enter to possess the land. | 9 彼らは言った、「立って彼らのところに攻め上りましょう。われわれはかの地を見たが、非常に豊かです。あなたがたはなぜじっとしているのですか。ためらわずに進んで行って、かの地を取りなさい。 |
| 18:10 When you go, you shall come to a secure people, and the land is large; for God has given it into your hand, a place where there is no want of anything that is in the earth." | 10 When ye go, ye shall come unto a people secure, and to a large land: for God hath given it into your hands; a place where there is no want of any thing that is in the earth. | 10 あなたがたが行けば、安らかにおる民の所に行くでしょう。その地は広く、神はそれをあなたがたの手に賜わるのです。そこには地にあるもの一つとして欠けているものはありません」。 |
| 18:11 There set forth from there of the family of the Danites, out of Zorah and out of Eshtaol, six hundred men girt with weapons of war. | 11 And there went from thence of the family of the Danites, out of Zorah and out of Eshtaol, six hundred men appointed with weapons of war. | 11 そこでダンの氏族のもの六百人が武器を帯びて、ゾラとエシタオルを出発し、 |
| 18:12 They went up, and encamped in Kiriath Jearim, in Judah: therefore they called that place Mahaneh Dan, to this day; behold, it is behind Kiriath Jearim. | 12 And they went up, and pitched in Kirjathjearim, in Judah: wherefore they called that place Mahanehdan unto this day: behold, it is behind Kirjathjearim. | 12 上って行ってユダのキリアテ・ヤリムに陣を張った。このゆえに、その所は今日までマハネダンと呼ばれる。それはキリアテ・ヤリムの西にある。 |
| 18:13 They passed there to the hill country of Ephraim, and came to the house of Micah. | 13 And they passed thence unto mount Ephraim, and came unto the house of Micah. | 13 彼らはそこからエフライムの山地に進み、ミカの家に着いた。 |
| 18:14 Then the five men who went to spy out the country of Laish answered, and said to their brothers, "Do you know that there is in these houses an ephod, and teraphim, and an engraved image, and a molten image? Now therefore consider what you have to do." | 14 Then answered the five men that went to spy out the country of Laish, and said unto their brethren, Do ye know that there is in these houses an ephod, and teraphim, and a graven image, and a molten image? now therefore consider what ye have to do. | 14 かのライシの国をうかがいに行った五人の者はその兄弟たちに言った、「あなたがたはこれらの家にエポデとテラピムと刻んだ像と鋳た像のあるのを知っていますか。それであなたがたは今、なすべきことを決めなさい」。 |
| 18:15 They turned aside there, and came to the house of the young man the Levite, even to the house of Micah, and asked him of his welfare. | 15 And they turned thitherward, and came to the house of the young man the Levite, even unto the house of Micah, and saluted him. | 15 そこで彼らはその方へ身をめぐらして、かのレビびとの若者の家すなわちミカの家に行って、彼に安否を問うた。 |
| 18:16 The six hundred men girt with their weapons of war, who were of the children of Dan, stood by the entrance of the gate. | 16 And the six hundred men appointed with their weapons of war, which were of the children of Dan, stood by the entering of the gate. | 16 しかし武器を帯びた六百人のダンの人々は門の入口に立っていた。 |
| 18:17 The five men who went to spy out the land went up, and came in there, and took the engraved image, and the ephod, and the teraphim, and the molten image: and the priest stood by the entrance of the gate with the six hundred men girt with weapons of war. | 17 And the five men that went to spy out the land went up, and came in thither, and took the graven image, and the ephod, and the teraphim, and the molten image: and the priest stood in the entering of the gate with the six hundred men that were appointed with weapons of war. | 17 かの土地をうかがいに行った五人の者は上って行って、そこにはいり、刻んだ像とエポデとテラピムと鋳た像とを取ったが、祭司は武器を帯びた六百人の者と共に門の入口に立っていた。 |
| 18:18 When these went into Micah's house, and fetched the engraved image, the ephod, and the teraphim, and the molten image, the priest said to them, "What are you doing?" | 18 And these went into Micah's house, and fetched the carved image, the ephod, and the teraphim, and the molten image. Then said the priest unto them, What do ye? | 18 彼らがミカの家にはいって刻んだ像とエポデとテラピムと鋳た像とを取った時、祭司は彼らに言った、「あなたがたは何をなさいますか」。 |
| 18:19 They said to him, "Hold your peace, put your hand on your mouth, and go with us, and be to us a father and a priest. Is it better for you to be priest to the house of one man, or to be priest to a tribe and a family in Israel?" | 19 And they said unto him, Hold thy peace, lay thine hand upon thy mouth, and go with us, and be to us a father and a priest: is it better for thee to be a priest unto the house of one man, or that thou be a priest unto a tribe and a family in Israel? | 19 彼らは言った、「黙りなさい。あなたの手を口にあてて、われわれと一緒にきて、われわれのために父とも祭司ともなりなさい。ひとりの家の祭司であるのと、イスラエルの一部族、一氏族の祭司であるのと、どちらがよいですか」。 |
| 18:20 The priest's heart was glad, and he took the ephod, and the teraphim, and the engraved image, and went in the midst of the people. | 20 And the priest's heart was glad, and he took the ephod, and the teraphim, and the graven image, and went in the midst of the people. | 20 祭司は喜んで、エポデとテラピムと刻んだ像とを取り、民のなかに加わった。 |
| 18:21 So they turned and departed, and put the little ones and the livestock and the goods before them. | 21 So they turned and departed, and put the little ones and the cattle and the carriage before them. | 21 かくて彼らは身をめぐらして去り、その子供たちと家畜と貨財をさきにたてて進んだが、 |
| 18:22 When they were a good way from the house of Micah, the men who were in the houses near to Micah's house were gathered together, and overtook the children of Dan. | 22 And when they were a good way from the house of Micah, the men that were in the houses near to Micah's house were gathered together, and overtook the children of Dan. | 22 ミカの家をはるかに離れたとき、ミカは家に近い家の人々を集め、ダンの人々に追いつき、 |
| 18:23 They cried to the children of Dan. They turned their faces, and said to Micah, "What ails you, that you come with such a company?" | 23 And they cried unto the children of Dan. And they turned their faces, and said unto Micah, What aileth thee, that thou comest with such a company? | 23 ダンの人々を呼んだので、彼らはふり向いてミカに言った、「あなたがそのように仲間を連れてきたのは、どうしたのですか」。 |
| 18:24 He said, "You have taken away my gods which I made, and the priest, and have gone away, and what more do I have? How then do you say to me, 'What ails you?'" | 24 And he said, Ye have taken away my gods which I made, and the priest, and ye are gone away: and what have I more? and what is this that ye say unto me, What aileth thee? | 24 彼は言った、「あなたがたが、わたしの造った神々および祭司を奪い去ったので、わたしに何が残っていますか。しかるにあなたがたがわたしに向かって『どうしたのですか』と言われるとは何事ですか」。 |
| 18:25 The children of Dan said to him, "Don't let your voice be heard among us, lest angry fellows fall on you, and you lose your life, with the lives of your household." | 25 And the children of Dan said unto him, Let not thy voice be heard among us, lest angry fellows run upon thee, and thou lose thy life, with the lives of thy household. | 25 ダンの人々は彼に言った、「あなたは大きな声を出さないがよい。気の荒い連中があなたに撃ちかかって、あなたは自分の命と家族の命を失うようになるでしょう」。 |
| 18:26 The children of Dan went their way: and when Micah saw that they were too strong for him, he turned and went back to his house. | 26 And the children of Dan went their way: and when Micah saw that they were too strong for him, he turned and went back unto his house. | 26 こうしてダンの人々は去って行ったが、ミカは彼らの強いのを見て、くびすをかえして自分の家に帰った。 |
| 18:27 They took that which Micah had made, and the priest whom he had, and came to Laish, to a people quiet and secure, and struck them with the edge of the sword; and they burnt the city with fire. | 27 And they took the things which Micah had made, and the priest which he had, and came unto Laish, unto a people that were at quiet and secure: and they smote them with the edge of the sword, and burnt the city with fire. | 27 さて彼らはミカが造った物と、ミカと共にいた祭司とを奪ってライシにおもむき、穏やかで、安らかな民のところへ行って、つるぎをもって彼らを撃ち、火をつけてその町を焼いたが、 |
| 18:28 There was no deliverer, because it was far from Sidon, and they had no dealings with any man; and it was in the valley that lies by Beth Rehob. They built the city, and lived therein. | 28 And there was no deliverer, because it was far from Zidon, and they had no business with any man; and it was in the valley that lieth by Bethrehob. And they built a city, and dwelt therein. | 28 シドンを遠く離れており、ほかの民との交わりがなかったので、それを救うものがなかった。その町はベテレホブに属する谷にあった。彼らは町を建てなおしてそこに住み、 |
| 18:29 They called the name of the city Dan, after the name of Dan their father, who was born to Israel: however the name of the city was Laish at the first. | 29 And they called the name of the city Dan, after the name of Dan their father, who was born unto Israel: howbeit the name of the city was Laish at the first. | 29 イスラエルに生れた先祖ダンの名にしたがって、その町の名をダンと名づけた。その町の名はもとはライシであった。 |
| 18:30 The children of Dan set up for themselves the engraved image: and Jonathan, the son of Gershom, the son of Moses, he and his sons were priests to the tribe of the Danites until the day of the captivity of the land. | 30 And the children of Dan set up the graven image: and Jonathan, the son of Gershom, the son of Manasseh, he and his sons were priests to the tribe of Dan until the day of the captivity of the land. | 30 そしてダンの人々は刻んだ像を自分たちのために安置し、モーセの孫すなわちゲルショムの子ヨナタンとその子孫がダンびとの部族の祭司となって、国が捕囚となる日にまで及んだ。 |
| 18:31 So they set them up Micah's engraved image which he made, all the time that the house of God was in Shiloh. | 31 And they set them up Micah's graven image, which he made, all the time that the house of God was in Shiloh. | 31 神の家がシロにあったあいだ、常に彼らはミカが造ったその刻んだ像を飾って置いた。 |

| 19:1 It happened in those days, when there was no king in Israel, that there was a certain Levite sojourning on the farther side of the hill country of Ephraim, who took to him a concubine out of Bethlehem Judah. | 1 And it came to pass in those days, when there was no king in Israel, that there was a certain Levite sojourning on the side of mount Ephraim, who took to him a concubine out of Bethlehemjudah. | 1 そのころ、イスラエルに王がなかった時、エフライムの山地の奥にひとりのレビびとが寄留していた。彼はユダのベツレヘムからひとりの女を迎えて、めかけとしていたが、 |
| 19:2 His concubine played the prostitute against him, and went away from him to her father's house to Bethlehem Judah, and was there the space of four months. | 2 And his concubine played the whore against him, and went away from him unto her father's house to Bethlehemjudah, and was there four whole months. | 2 そのめかけは怒って、彼のところを去り、ユダのベツレヘムの父の家に帰って、そこに四か月ばかり過ごした。 |
| 19:3 Her husband arose, and went after her, to speak kindly to her, to bring her again, having his servant with him, and a couple of donkeys: and she brought him into her father's house; and when the father of the young lady saw him, he rejoiced to meet him. | 3 And her husband arose, and went after her, to speak friendly unto her, and to bring her again, having his servant with him, and a couple of asses: and she brought him into her father's house: and when the father of the damsel saw him, he rejoiced to meet him. | 3 そこで夫は彼女をなだめて連れ帰ろうと、しもべと二頭のろばを従え、立って彼女のあとを追って行った。彼が女の父の家に着いた時、娘の父は彼を見て、喜んで迎えた。 |
| 19:4 His father-in-law, the young lady's father, retained him; and he abode with him three days: so they ate and drink, and lodged there. | 4 And his father in law, the damsel's father, retained him; and he abode with him three days: so they did eat and drink, and lodged there. | 4 娘の父であるしゅうとが引き留めたので、彼は三日共におり、みな飲み食いしてそこに宿った。 |
| 19:5 It happened on the fourth day, that they arose early in the morning, and he rose up to depart: and the young lady's father said to his son-in-law, "Strengthen your heart with a morsel of bread, and afterward you shall go your way." | 5 And it came to pass on the fourth day, when they arose early in the morning, that he rose up to depart: and the damsel's father said unto his son in law, Comfort thine heart with a morsel of bread, and afterward go your way. | 5 四日目に彼らは朝はやく起き、彼が立ち去ろうとしたので、娘の父は婿に言った、「少し食事をして元気をつけ、それから出かけなさい」。 |
| 19:6 So they sat down, ate, and drank, both of them together: and the young lady's father said to the man, "Please be pleased to stay all night, and let your heart be merry." | 6 And they sat down, and did eat and drink both of them together: for the damsel's father had said unto the man, Be content, I pray thee, and tarry all night, and let thine heart be merry. | 6 そこでふたりは座して共に飲み食いしたが、娘の父はその人に言った、「どうぞもう一晩泊まって楽しく過ごしなさい」。 |
| 19:7 The man rose up to depart; but his father-in-law urged him, and he lodged there again. | 7 And when the man rose up to depart, his father in law urged him: therefore he lodged there again. | 7 その人は立って去ろうとしたが、しゅうとがしいたので、ついにまたそこに宿った。 |
| 19:8 He arose early in the morning on the fifth day to depart; and the young lady's father said, "Please strengthen your heart and stay until the day declines;" and they both ate. | 8 And he arose early in the morning on the fifth day to depart; and the damsel's father said, Comfort thine heart, I pray thee. And they tarried until afternoon, and they did eat both of them. | 8 五日目になって、朝はやく起きて去ろうとしたが、娘の父は言った、「どうぞ、元気をつけて、日が傾くまでとどまりなさい」。そこで彼らふたりは食事をした。 |
| 19:9 When the man rose up to depart, he, and his concubine, and his servant, his father-in-law, the young lady's father, said to him, "Behold, now the day draws toward evening, please stay all night: behold, the day grows to an end, lodge here, that your heart may be merry; and tomorrow go on your way early, that you may go home." | 9 And when the man rose up to depart, he, and his concubine, and his servant, his father in law, the damsel's father, said unto him, Behold, now the day draweth toward evening, I pray you tarry all night: behold, the day groweth to an end, lodge here, that thine heart may be merry; and to morrow get you early on your way, that thou mayest go home. | 9 その人がついにめかけおよびしもべと共に去ろうとして立ちあがったとき、娘の父であるしゅうとは彼に言った、「日も暮れようとしている。どうぞもう一晩泊まりなさい。日は傾いた。ここに宿って楽しく過ごしなさい。そしてあしたの朝はやく起きて出立し、家に帰りなさい」。 |
| 19:10 But the man wouldn't stay that night, but he rose up and departed, and came over against Jebus (the same is Jerusalem): and there were with him a couple of donkeys saddled; his concubine also was with him. | 10 But the man would not tarry that night, but he rose up and departed, and came over against Jebus, which is Jerusalem; and there were with him two asses saddled, his concubine also was with him. | 10 しかし、その人は泊まることを好まないので、立って去り、エブスすなわちエルサレムの向かいに着いた。くらをおいた二頭のろばと彼のめかけも一緒であった。 |
| 19:11 When they were by Jebus, the day was far spent; and the servant said to his master, "Please come and let us turn aside into this city of the Jebusites, and lodge in it." | 11 And when they were by Jebus, the day was far spent; and the servant said unto his master, Come, I pray thee, and let us turn in into this city of the Jebusites, and lodge in it. | 11 彼らがエブスに近づいたとき、日はすでに没したので、しもべは主人に言った、「さあ、われわれは道を転じてエブスびとのこの町にはいって、そこに宿りましょう」。 |
| 19:12 His master said to him, "We won't turn aside into the city of a foreigner, that is not of the children of Israel; but we will pass over to Gibeah." | 12 And his master said unto him, We will not turn aside hither into the city of a stranger, that is not of the children of Israel; we will pass over to Gibeah. | 12 主人は彼に言った、「われわれは道を転じて、イスラエルの人々の町でない外国人の町に、はいってはならない。ギベアまで行こう」。 |
| 19:13 He said to his servant, "Come and let us draw near to one of these places; and we will lodge in Gibeah, or in Ramah." | 13 And he said unto his servant, Come, and let us draw near to one of these places to lodge all night, in Gibeah, or in Ramah. | 13 彼はまたしもべに言った、「さあ、われわれはギベアかラマか、そのうちの一つに着いてそこに宿ろう」。 |
| 19:14 So they passed on and went their way; and the sun went down on them near to Gibeah, which belongs to Benjamin. | 14 And they passed on and went their way; and the sun went down upon them when they were by Gibeah, which belongeth to Benjamin. | 14 彼らは進んで行ったが、ベニヤミンに属するギベアの近くで日が暮れたので、 |
| 19:15 They turned aside there, to go in to lodge in Gibeah: and he went in, and sat him down in the street of the city; for there was no man who took them into his house to lodge. | 15 And they turned aside thither, to go in and to lodge in Gibeah: and when he went in, he sat him down in a street of the city: for there was no man that took them into his house to lodging. | 15 ギベアへ行って宿ろうと、そこに道を転じ、町にはいって、その広場に座した。だれも彼らを家に迎えて泊めてくれる者がなかったからである。 |
| 19:16 Behold, there came an old man from his work out of the field at even: now the man was of the hill country of Ephraim, and he sojourned in Gibeah; but the men of the place were Benjamites. | 16 And, behold, there came an old man from his work out of the field at even, which was also of mount Ephraim; and he sojourned in Gibeah: but the men of the place were Benjamites. | 16 時にひとりの老人が夕暮に畑の仕事から帰ってきた。この人はエフライムの山地の者で、ギベアに寄留していたのである。ただしこの所の人々はベニヤミンびとであった。 |
| 19:17 He lifted up his eyes, and saw the wayfaring man in the street of the city; and the old man said, "Where are you going? Where did you come from?" | 17 And when he had lifted up his eyes, he saw a wayfaring man in the street of the city: and the old man said, Whither goest thou? and whence comest thou? | 17 彼は目をあげて、町の広場に旅人のおるのを見た。老人は言った、「あなたはどこへ行かれるのですか。どこからおいでになりましたか」。 |
| 19:18 He said to him, "We are passing from Bethlehem Judah to the farther side of the hill country of Ephraim. I am from there, and I went to Bethlehem Judah. I am going to the house of Yahweh; and there is no man who takes me into his house. | 18 And he said unto him, We are passing from Bethlehemjudah toward the side of mount Ephraim; from thence am I: and I went to Bethlehemjudah, but I am now going to the house of the LORD; and there is no man that receiveth me to house. | 18 その人は言った、「われわれはユダのベツレヘムから、エフライムの山地の奥へ行くものです。わたしはあそこの者で、ユダのベツレヘムへ行き、今わたしの家に帰るところですが、だれもわたしを家に泊めてくれる者がありません。 |
| 19:19 Yet there is both straw and provender for our donkeys; and there is bread and wine also for me, and for your handmaid, and for the young man who is with your servants: there is no want of anything." | 19 Yet there is both straw and provender for our asses; and there is bread and wine also for me, and for thy handmaid, and for the young man which is with thy servants: there is no want of any thing. | 19 われわれには、ろばのわらも飼葉もあり、またわたしと、はしためと、しもべと共にいる若者との食物も酒もあって、何も欠けているものはありません」。 |
| 19:20 The old man said, "Peace be to you; howsoever let all your wants lie on me; only don't lodge in the street." | 20 And the old man said, Peace be with thee; howsoever let all thy wants lie upon me; only lodge not in the street. | 20 老人は言った、「安心しなさい。あなたの必要なものはなんでも備えましょう。ただ広場で夜を過ごしてはなりません」。 |
| 19:21 So he brought him into his house, and gave the donkeys fodder; and they washed their feet, and ate and drink. | 21 So he brought him into his house, and gave provender unto the asses: and they washed their feet, and did eat and drink. | 21 そして彼を家に連れていって、ろばに飼葉を与えた。彼らは足を洗って飲み食いした。 |
| 19:22 As they were making their hearts merry, behold, the men of the city, certain base fellows, surrounded the house, beating at the door; and they spoke to the master of the house, the old man, saying, "Bring out the man who came into your house, that we may have sex with him!" | 22 Now as they were making their hearts merry, behold, the men of the city, certain sons of Belial, beset the house round about, and beat at the door, and spake to the master of the house, the old man, saying, Bring forth the man that came into thine house, that we may know him. | 22 彼らが楽しく過ごしていた時、町の人々の悪い者どもがその家を取り囲み、戸を打ちたたいて、家のあるじである老人に言った、「あなたの家にきた人を出しなさい。われわれはその者を知るであろう」。 |
| 19:23 The man, the master of the house, went out to them, and said to them, "No, my brothers, please don't act so wickedly; seeing that this man is come into my house, don't do this folly. | 23 And the man, the master of the house, went out unto them, and said unto them, Nay, my brethren, nay, I pray you, do not so wickedly; seeing that this man is come into mine house, do not this folly. | 23 しかし家のあるじは彼らのところに出ていって言った、「いいえ、兄弟たちよ、どうぞ、そんな悪いことをしないでください。この人はすでにわたしの家にはいったのだから、そんなつまらない事をしないでください。 |
| 19:24 Behold, here is my virgin daughter and his concubine. I will bring them out now. Humble them, and do with them what seems good to you; but to this man don't do any such folly." | 24 Behold, here is my daughter a maiden, and his concubine; them I will bring out now, and humble ye them, and do with them what seemeth good unto you: but unto this man do not so vile a thing. | 24 ここに処女であるわたしの娘と、この人のめかけがいます。今それを出しますから、それをはずかしめ、あなたがたの好きなようにしなさい。しかしこの人にはそのようなつまらない事をしないでください」。 |
| 19:25 But the men wouldn't listen to him: so the man laid hold of his concubine, and brought her out to them; and they had sex with her, and abused her all night until the morning: and when the day began to dawn, they let her go. | 25 But the men would not hearken to him: so the man took his concubine, and brought her forth unto them; and they knew her, and abused her all the night until the morning: and when the day began to spring, they let her go. | 25 しかし人々が聞きいれなかったので、その人は自分のめかけをとって彼らのところに出した。彼らはその女を犯して朝まで終夜はずかしめ、日ののぼるころになって放し帰らせた。 |
| 19:26 Then came the woman in the dawning of the day, and fell down at the door of the man's house where her lord was, until it was light. | 26 Then came the woman in the dawning of the day, and fell down at the door of the man's house where her lord was, till it was light. | 26 朝になって女は自分の主人を宿してくれた人の家の戸口にきて倒れ伏し、夜のあけるまでに及んだ。 |
| 19:27 Her lord rose up in the morning, and opened the doors of the house, and went out to go his way; and behold, the woman his concubine was fallen down at the door of the house, with her hands on the threshold. | 27 And her lord rose up in the morning, and opened the doors of the house, and went out to go his way: and, behold, the woman his concubine was fallen down at the door of the house, and her hands were upon the threshold. | 27 彼女の主人は朝起きて家の戸を開き、出て旅立とうとすると、そのめかけである女が家の戸口に、手を敷居にかけて倒れていた。 |
| 19:28 He said to her, "Get up, and let us be going!" but no one answered. Then he took her up on the donkey; and the man rose up, and went to his place. | 28 And he said unto her, Up, and let us be going. But none answered. Then the man took her up upon an ass, and the man rose up, and gat him unto his place. | 28 彼は女に向かって、「起きよ、行こう」と言ったけれども、なんの答もなかった。そこでその人は女をろばに乗せ、立って自分の家におもむいたが、 |
| 19:29 When he was come into his house, he took a knife, and laid hold on his concubine, and divided her, limb by limb, into twelve pieces, and sent her throughout all the borders of Israel. | 29 And when he was come into his house, he took a knife, and laid hold on his concubine, and divided her, together with her bones, into twelve pieces, and sent her into all the coasts of Israel. | 29 その家に着いたとき、刀を執り、めかけを捕えて、そのからだを十二切れに断ち切り、それをイスラエルの全領域にあまねく送った。 |
| 19:30 It was so, that all who saw it said, "There was no such deed done nor seen from the day that the children of Israel came up out of the land of Egypt to this day! Consider it, take counsel, and speak." | 30 And it was so, that all that saw it said, There was no such deed done nor seen from the day that the children of Israel came up out of the land of Egypt unto this day: consider of it, take advice, and speak your minds. | 30 それを見たものはみな言った、「イスラエルの人々がエジプトの地から上ってきた日から今日まで、このような事は起ったこともなく、また見たこともない。この事をよく考え、協議して言うことを決めよ」。 |

| 20:1 Then all the children of Israel went out, and the congregation was assembled as one man, from Dan even to Beersheba, with the land of Gilead, to Yahweh at Mizpah. | 1 Then all the children of Israel went out, and the congregation was gathered together as one man, from Dan even to Beersheba, with the land of Gilead, unto the LORD in Mizpeh. | 1 そこでイスラエルの人々は、ダンからベエルシバまで、またギレアデの地からもみな出てきて、その会衆はひとりのようにミヅパで主のもとに集まった。 |
| 20:2 The chiefs of all the people, even of all the tribes of Israel, presented themselves in the assembly of the people of God, four hundred thousand footmen who drew sword. | 2 And the chief of all the people, even of all the tribes of Israel, presented themselves in the assembly of the people of God, four hundred thousand footmen that drew sword. | 2 民の首領たち、すなわちイスラエルのすべての部族の首領たちは、みずから神の民の集合に出た。つるぎを帯びている歩兵が四十万人あった。 |
| 20:3 (Now the children of Benjamin heard that the children of Israel had gone up to Mizpah.) The children of Israel said, "Tell us, how did this wickedness happen?" | 3 (Now the children of Benjamin heard that the children of Israel were gone up to Mizpeh.) Then said the children of Israel, Tell us, how was this wickedness? | 3 ベニヤミンの人々は、イスラエルの人々がミヅパに上ったことを聞いた。イスラエルの人々は言った、「どうして、この悪事が起ったのか、われわれに話してください」。 |
| 20:4 The Levite, the husband of the woman who was murdered, answered, "I came into Gibeah that belongs to Benjamin, I and my concubine, to lodge. | 4 And the Levite, the husband of the woman that was slain, answered and said, I came into Gibeah that belongeth to Benjamin, I and my concubine, to lodge. | 4 殺された女の夫であるレビびとは答えて言った、「わたしは、めかけと一緒にベニヤミンに属するギベアへ行って宿りましたが、 |
| 20:5 The men of Gibeah rose against me, and surrounded the house by night. They thought to have slain me, and they forced my concubine, and she is dead. | 5 And the men of Gibeah rose against me, and beset the house round about upon me by night, and thought to have slain me: and my concubine have they forced, that she is dead. | 5 ギベアの人々は立ってわたしを攻め、夜の間に、わたしのおる家を取り囲んで、わたしを殺そうと企て、ついにわたしのめかけをはずかしめて、死なせました。 |
| 20:6 I took my concubine, and cut her in pieces, and sent her throughout all the country of the inheritance of Israel; for they have committed lewdness and folly in Israel. | 6 And I took my concubine, and cut her in pieces, and sent her throughout all the country of the inheritance of Israel: for they have committed lewdness and folly in Israel. | 6 それでわたしはめかけを捕えて断ち切り、それをイスラエルの嗣業のすべての地方にあまねく送りました。彼らがイスラエルにおいて憎むべきみだらなことを行ったからです。 |
| 20:7 Behold, you children of Israel, all of you, give here your advice and counsel." | 7 Behold, ye are all children of Israel; give here your advice and counsel. | 7 イスラエルの人々よ、あなたがたは皆自分の意見と考えをここに述べてください」。 |
| 20:8 All the people arose as one man, saying, "We will not any of us go to his tent, neither will we any of us turn to his house. | 8 And all the people arose as one man, saying, We will not any of us go to his tent, neither will we any of us turn into his house. | 8 民は皆ひとりのように立って言った、「われわれはだれも自分の天幕に行きません。まただれも自分の家に帰りません。 |
| 20:9 But now this is the thing which we will do to Gibeah: we will go up against it by lot; | 9 But now this shall be the thing which we will do to Gibeah; we will go up by lot against it; | 9 われわれが今ギベアに対してしようとする事はこれです。われわれはくじを引いて、ギベアに攻めのぼりましょう。 |
| 20:10 and we will take ten men of one hundred throughout all the tribes of Israel, and one hundred of one thousand, and a thousand out of ten thousand, to get food for the people, that they may do, when they come to Gibeah of Benjamin, according to all the folly that they have worked in Israel." | 10 And we will take ten men of an hundred throughout all the tribes of Israel, and an hundred of a thousand, and a thousand out of ten thousand, to fetch victual for the people, that they may do, when they come to Gibeah of Benjamin, according to all the folly that they have wrought in Israel. | 10 すなわちイスラエルのすべての部族から百人について十人、千人について百人、万人について千人を選んで、民の糧食をとらせ、民はベニヤミンのギベアに行って、ベニヤミンびとがイスラエルにおいておこなったすべてのみだらな事に対して、報復しましょう」。 |
| 20:11 So all the men of Israel were gathered against the city, knit together as one man. | 11 So all the men of Israel were gathered against the city, knit together as one man. | 11 こうしてイスラエルの人々は皆集まり、一致結束して町を攻めようとした。 |
| 20:12 The tribes of Israel sent men through all the tribe of Benjamin, saying, "What wickedness is this that is happen among you? | 12 And the tribes of Israel sent men through all the tribe of Benjamin, saying, What wickedness is this that is done among you? | 12 イスラエルのもろもろの部族は人々をあまねくベニヤミンの部族のうちにつかわして言わせた、「あなたがたのうちに起ったこの事は、なんたる悪事でしょうか。 |
| 20:13 Now therefore deliver up the men, the base fellows, who are in Gibeah, that we may put them to death, and put away evil from Israel." But Benjamin would not listen to the voice of their brothers the children of Israel. | 13 Now therefore deliver us the men, the children of Belial, which are in Gibeah, that we may put them to death, and put away evil from Israel. But the children of Benjamin would not hearken to the voice of their brethren the children of Israel. | 13 それで今ギベアにいるあの悪い人々をわたしなさい。われわれは彼らを殺して、イスラエルから悪を除き去りましょう」。しかしベニヤミンの人々はその兄弟であるイスラエルの人々の言葉を聞きいれなかった。 |
| 20:14 The children of Benjamin gathered themselves together out of the cities to Gibeah, to go out to battle against the children of Israel. | 14 But the children of Benjamin gathered themselves together out of the cities unto Gibeah, to go out to battle against the children of Israel. | 14 かえってベニヤミンの人々は町々からギベアに集まり、出てイスラエルの人々と戦おうとした。 |
| 20:15 The children of Benjamin were numbered on that day out of the cities twenty-six thousand men who drew the sword, besides the inhabitants of Gibeah, who were numbered seven hundred chosen men. | 15 And the children of Benjamin were numbered at that time out of the cities twenty and six thousand men that drew sword, beside the inhabitants of Gibeah, which were numbered seven hundred chosen men. | 15 その日、町々から集まったベニヤミンの人々はつるぎを帯びている者二万六千人あり、ほかにギベアの住民で集まった精兵が七百人あった。 |
| 20:16 Among all this people there were seven hundred chosen men left-handed; everyone could sling stones at a hair-breadth, and not miss. | 16 Among all this people there were seven hundred chosen men lefthanded; every one could sling stones at an hair breadth, and not miss. | 16 このすべての民のうちに左ききの精兵が七百人あって、いずれも一本の毛すじをねらって石を投げても、はずれることがなかった。 |
| 20:17 The men of Israel, besides Benjamin, were numbered four hundred thousand men who drew sword: all these were men of war. | 17 And the men of Israel, beside Benjamin, were numbered four hundred thousand men that drew sword: all these were men of war. | 17 イスラエルの人々の集まった者はベニヤミンを除いて、つるぎを帯びている者四十万人あり、いずれも軍人であった。 |
| 20:18 The children of Israel arose, and went up to Bethel, and asked counsel of God; and they said, "Who shall go up for us first to battle against the children of Benjamin?" Yahweh said, "Judah shall go up first." | 18 And the children of Israel arose, and went up to the house of God, and asked counsel of God, and said, Which of us shall go up first to the battle against the children of Benjamin? And the LORD said, Judah shall go up first. | 18 イスラエルの人々は立ちあがってベテルにのぼり、神に尋ねた、「われわれのうち、いずれがさきにのぼって、ベニヤミンの人々と戦いましょうか」。主は言われた、「ユダがさきに」。 |
| 20:19 The children of Israel rose up in the morning, and encamped against Gibeah. | 19 And the children of Israel rose up in the morning, and encamped against Gibeah. | 19 そこでイスラエルの人々は、朝起きて、ギベアに対し陣を取った。 |
| 20:20 The men of Israel went out to battle against Benjamin; and the men of Israel set the battle in array against them at Gibeah. | 20 And the men of Israel went out to battle against Benjamin; and the men of Israel put themselves in array to fight against them at Gibeah. | 20 すなわちイスラエルの人々はベニヤミンと戦うために出て行って、ギベアで彼らに対して戦いの備えをしたが、 |
| 20:21 The children of Benjamin came forth out of Gibeah, and destroyed down to the ground of the Israelites on that day Twenty-two thousand men. | 21 And the children of Benjamin came forth out of Gibeah, and destroyed down to the ground of the Israelites that day twenty and two thousand men. | 21 ベニヤミンの人々はギベアから出てきて、その日イスラエルの人々のうち二万二千人を地に撃ち倒した。 |
| 20:22 The people, the men of Israel, encouraged themselves, and set the battle again in array in the place where they set themselves in array the first day. | 22 And the people the men of Israel encouraged themselves, and set their battle again in array in the place where they put themselves in array the first day. | 22 しかしイスラエルの民の人々は奮いたって初めの日に備えをした所にふたたび戦いの備えをした。 |
| 20:23 The children of Israel went up and wept before Yahweh until even; and they asked of Yahweh, saying, "Shall I again draw near to battle against the children of Benjamin my brother?" Yahweh said, "Go up against him." | 23 (And the children of Israel went up and wept before the LORD until even, and asked counsel of the LORD, saying, Shall I go up again to battle against the children of Benjamin my brother? And the LORD said, Go up against him.) | 23 そしてイスラエルの人々は上って行って主の前に夕暮まで泣き、主に尋ねた、「われわれは再びわれわれの兄弟であるベニヤミンの人々と戦いを交えるべきでしょうか」。主は言われた、「攻めのぼれ」。 |
| 20:24 The children of Israel came near against the children of Benjamin the second day. | 24 And the children of Israel came near against the children of Benjamin the second day. | 24 そこでイスラエルの人々は、次の日またベニヤミンの人々の所に攻めよせたが、 |
| 20:25 Benjamin went forth against them out of Gibeah the second day, and destroyed down to the ground of the children of Israel again eighteen thousand men; all these drew the sword. | 25 And Benjamin went forth against them out of Gibeah the second day, and destroyed down to the ground of the children of Israel again eighteen thousand men; all these drew the sword. | 25 ベニヤミンは次の日またギベアから出て、これを迎え、ふたたびイスラエルの人々のうち一万八千人を地に撃ち倒した。これらは皆つるぎを帯びている者であった。 |
| 20:26 Then all the children of Israel, and all the people, went up, and came to Bethel, and wept, and sat there before Yahweh, and fasted that day until even; and they offered burnt offerings and peace offerings before Yahweh. | 26 Then all the children of Israel, and all the people, went up, and came unto the house of God, and wept, and sat there before the LORD, and fasted that day until even, and offered burnt offerings and peace offerings before the LORD. | 26 これがためにイスラエルのすべての人々すなわち全軍はベテルに上って行って泣き、その所で主の前に座して、その日夕暮まで断食し、燔祭と酬恩祭を主の前にささげた。 |
| 20:27 The children of Israel asked of Yahweh (for the ark of the covenant of God was there in those days, | 27 And the children of Israel enquired of the LORD, (for the ark of the covenant of God was there in those days, | 27 そしてイスラエルの人々は主に尋ね、―そのころ神の契約の箱はそこにあって、 |
| 20:28 and Phinehas, the son of Eleazar, the son of Aaron, stood before it in those days), saying, "Shall I yet again go out to battle against the children of Benjamin my brother, or shall I cease?" Yahweh said, "Go up; for tomorrow I will deliver him into your hand." | 28 And Phinehas, the son of Eleazar, the son of Aaron, stood before it in those days,) saying, Shall I yet again go out to battle against the children of Benjamin my brother, or shall I cease? And the LORD said, Go up; for to morrow I will deliver them into thine hand. | 28 アロンの子エレアザルの子であるピネハスが、それに仕えていた―そして言った、「われわれはなおふたたび出て、われわれの兄弟であるベニヤミンの人々と戦うべきでしょうか。あるいはやめるべきでしょうか」。主は言われた、「のぼれ。わたしはあす彼らをあなたがたの手にわたすであろう」。 |
| 20:29 Israel set ambushes all around Gibeah. | 29 And Israel set liers in wait round about Gibeah. | 29 そこでイスラエルはギベアの周囲に伏兵を置き、 |
| 20:30 The children of Israel went up against the children of Benjamin on the third day, and set themselves in array against Gibeah, as at other times. | 30 And the children of Israel went up against the children of Benjamin on the third day, and put themselves in array against Gibeah, as at other times. | 30 そしてイスラエルの人々は三日目にまたベニヤミンの人々のところに攻めのぼり、前のようにギベアに対して備えをした。 |
| 20:31 The children of Benjamin went out against the people, and were drawn away from the city; and they began to strike and kill of the people, as at other times, in the highways, of which one goes up to Bethel, and the other to Gibeah, in the field, about thirty men of Israel. | 31 And the children of Benjamin went out against the people, and were drawn away from the city; and they began to smite of the people, and kill, as at other times, in the highways, of which one goeth up to the house of God, and the other to Gibeah in the field, about thirty men of Israel. | 31 ベニヤミンの人々は出て、民を迎えたが、ついに町からおびき出されたので、彼らは前のように大路で民を撃ちはじめ、また野でイスラエルの人を三十人ばかり殺した。その大路は、一つはベテルに至り、一つはギベアに至るものであった。 |
| 20:32 The children of Benjamin said, "They are struck down before us, as at the first." But the children of Israel said, "Let us flee, and draw them away from the city to the highways." | 32 And the children of Benjamin said, They are smitten down before us, as at the first. But the children of Israel said, Let us flee, and draw them from the city unto the highways. | 32 ベニヤミンの人々は言った、「彼らは初めのように、われわれの前に撃ち破られる」。しかしイスラエルの人々は言った、「われわれは逃げて、彼らを町から大路におびき出そう」。 |
| 20:33 All the men of Israel rose up out of their place, and set themselves in array at Baal Tamar: and the ambushers of Israel broke forth out of their place, even out of Maareh Geba. | 33 And all the men of Israel rose up out of their place, and put themselves in array at Baaltamar: and the liers in wait of Israel came forth out of their places, even out of the meadows of Gibeah. | 33 そしてイスラエルの人々は皆その所から立ってバアル・タマルに備えをした。その間に待ち伏せていたイスラエルの人々がその所から、すなわちゲバの西から現れ出た。 |
| 20:34 There came over against Gibeah ten thousand chosen men out of all Israel, and the battle was sore; but they didn't know that evil was close on them. | 34 And there came against Gibeah ten thousand chosen men out of all Israel, and the battle was sore: but they knew not that evil was near them. | 34 すなわちイスラエルの全軍のうちから精兵一万人がきて、ギベアを襲い、その戦いは激しかった。しかしベニヤミンの人々は災の自分たちに迫っているのを知らなかった。 |
| 20:35 Yahweh struck Benjamin before Israel; and the children of Israel destroyed of Benjamin that day twenty-five thousand one hundred men: all these drew the sword. | 35 And the LORD smote Benjamin before Israel: and the children of Israel destroyed of the Benjamites that day twenty and five thousand and an hundred men: all these drew the sword. | 35 主がイスラエルの前にベニヤミンを撃ち敗られたので、イスラエルの人々は、その日ベニヤミンびと二万五千一百人を殺した。これらは皆つるぎを帯びている者であった。 |
| 20:36 So the children of Benjamin saw that they were struck; for the men of Israel gave place to Benjamin, because they trusted the ambushers whom they had set against Gibeah. | 36 So the children of Benjamin saw that they were smitten: for the men of Israel gave place to the Benjamites, because they trusted unto the liers in wait which they had set beside Gibeah. | 36 こうしてベニヤミンの人々は自分たちの撃ち敗られたのを見た。そこでイスラエルの人々はギベアに対して設けた伏兵をたのんで、ベニヤミンびとを避けて退いた。 |
| 20:37 The ambushers hurried, and rushed on Gibeah; and the ambushers drew themselves along, and struck all the city with the edge of the sword. | 37 And the liers in wait hasted, and rushed upon Gibeah; and the liers in wait drew themselves along, and smote all the city with the edge of the sword. | 37 伏兵は急いでギベアに突き入り、進んでつるぎをもって町をことごとく撃った。 |
| 20:38 Now the appointed sign between the men of Israel and the ambushers was that they should make a great cloud of smoke rise up out of the city. | 38 Now there was an appointed sign between the men of Israel and the liers in wait, that they should make a great flame with smoke rise up out of the city. | 38 イスラエルの人々と伏兵の間に定めた合図は、町から大いなるのろしがあがるとき、 |
| 20:39 The men of Israel turned in the battle, and Benjamin began to strike and kill of the men of Israel about thirty persons; for they said, "Surely they are struck down before us, as in the first battle." | 39 And when the men of Israel retired in the battle, Benjamin began to smite and kill of the men of Israel about thirty persons: for they said, Surely they are smitten down before us, as in the first battle. | 39 イスラエルの人々が戦いに転じることであった。さてベニヤミンは初めイスラエルの人々を撃って三十人ばかりを殺したので言った、「まことに彼らは最初の戦いのようにわれわれの前に撃ち敗られる」。 |
| 20:40 But when the cloud began to arise up out of the city in a pillar of smoke, the Benjamites looked behind them; and behold, the whole of the city went up in smoke to the sky. | 40 But when the flame began to arise up out of the city with a pillar of smoke, the Benjamites looked behind them, and, behold, the flame of the city ascended up to heaven. | 40 しかし、のろしが煙の柱となって町からのぼりはじめたので、ベニヤミンの人々がうしろを見ると、町はみな煙となって天にのぼっていた。 |
| 20:41 The men of Israel turned, and the men of Benjamin were dismayed; for they saw that evil had come on them. | 41 And when the men of Israel turned again, the men of Benjamin were amazed: for they saw that evil was come upon them. | 41 その時イスラエルの人々が向きを変えたので、ベニヤミンの人々は災が自分たちに迫ったのを見て、うろたえ、 |
| 20:42 Therefore they turned their backs before the men of Israel to the way of the wilderness; but the battle followed hard after them; and those who came out of the cities destroyed them in its midst. | 42 Therefore they turned their backs before the men of Israel unto the way of the wilderness; but the battle overtook them; and them which came out of the cities they destroyed in the midst of them. | 42 イスラエルの人々の前から身をめぐらして荒野の方に向かったが、戦いが彼らに追い迫り、町から出てきた者どもは、彼らを中にはさんで殺した。 |
| 20:43 They surrounded the Benjamites, chased them, and trod them down at their resting place, as far as over against Gibeah toward the sunrise. | 43 Thus they inclosed the Benjamites round about, and chased them, and trode them down with ease over against Gibeah toward the sunrising. | 43 すなわちイスラエルの人々はベニヤミンの人々を切り倒し、追い撃ち、踏みにじって、ノハから東の方ギベアの向かいにまで及んだ。 |
| 20:44 There fell of Benjamin eighteen thousand men; all these were men of valor. | 44 And there fell of Benjamin eighteen thousand men; all these were men of valour. | 44 ベニヤミンの倒れた者は一万八千人で、みな勇士であった。 |
| 20:45 They turned and fled toward the wilderness to the rock of Rimmon: and they gleaned of them in the highways five thousand men, and followed hard after them to Gidom, and struck of them two thousand men. | 45 And they turned and fled toward the wilderness unto the rock of Rimmon: and they gleaned of them in the highways five thousand men; and pursued hard after them unto Gidom, and slew two thousand men of them. | 45 彼らは身をめぐらして荒野の方、リンモンの岩まで逃げたが、イスラエルの人々は大路でそのうち五千人を切り倒し、なおも追撃してギドムに至り、そのうちの二千人を殺した。 |
| 20:46 So that all who fell that day of Benjamin were twenty-five thousand men who drew the sword; all these were men of valor. | 46 So that all which fell that day of Benjamin were twenty and five thousand men that drew the sword; all these were men of valour. | 46 こうしてその日ベニヤミンの倒れた者はつるぎを帯びている者合わせて二万五千人で、みな勇士であった。 |
| 20:47 But six hundred men turned and fled toward the wilderness to the rock of Rimmon, and abode in the rock of Rimmon four months. | 47 But six hundred men turned and fled to the wilderness unto the rock Rimmon, and abode in the rock Rimmon four months. | 47 しかし六百人の者は身をめぐらして荒野の方、リンモンの岩まで逃げて、四か月の間リンモンの岩に住んだ。 |
| 20:48 The men of Israel turned again on the children of Benjamin, and struck them with the edge of the sword, both the entire city, and the livestock, and all that they found: moreover all the cities which they found they set on fire. | 48 And the men of Israel turned again upon the children of Benjamin, and smote them with the edge of the sword, as well the men of every city, as the beast, and all that came to hand: also they set on fire all the cities that they came to. | 48 そこでイスラエルの人々はまた身をかえしてベニヤミンの人々を攻め、つるぎをもって人も獣もすべて見つけたものを撃ち殺し、また見つけたすべての町に火をかけた。 |

| 21:1 Now the men of Israel had sworn in Mizpah, saying, "There shall not any of us give his daughter to Benjamin as wife." | 1 Now the men of Israel had sworn in Mizpeh, saying, There shall not any of us give his daughter unto Benjamin to wife. | 1 かつてイスラエルの人々はミヅパで、「われわれのうちひとりもその娘をベニヤミンびとの妻として与える者があってはならない」と言って誓ったので、 |
| 21:2 The people came to Bethel, and sat there until evening before God, and lifted up their voices, and wept sore. | 2 And the people came to the house of God, and abode there till even before God, and lifted up their voices, and wept sore; | 2 民はベテルに行って、そこで夕暮まで神の前に座し、声をあげて激しく泣いて、 |
| 21:3 They said, "Yahweh, the God of Israel, why has this happened in Israel, that there should be today one tribe lacking in Israel?" | 3 And said, O LORD God of Israel, why is this come to pass in Israel, that there should be to day one tribe lacking in Israel? | 3 言った、「イスラエルの神、主よ、どうしてイスラエルにこのような事が起って、今日イスラエルに一つの部族が欠けるようになったのですか」。 |
| 21:4 It happened on the next day that the people rose early, and built there an altar, and offered burnt offerings and peace offerings. | 4 And it came to pass on the morrow, that the people rose early, and built there an altar, and offered burnt offerings and peace offerings. | 4 翌日、民は早く起きて、そこに祭壇を築き、燔祭と酬恩祭をささげた。 |
| 21:5 The children of Israel said, "Who is there among all the tribes of Israel who didn't come up in the assembly to Yahweh?" For they had made a great oath concerning him who didn't come up to Yahweh to Mizpah, saying, "He shall surely be put to death." | 5 And the children of Israel said, Who is there among all the tribes of Israel that came not up with the congregation unto the LORD? For they had made a great oath concerning him that came not up to the LORD to Mizpeh, saying, He shall surely be put to death. | 5 そしてイスラエルの人々は言った、「イスラエルのすべての部族のうちで集会に上って、主のもとに行かなかった者はだれか」。これは彼らがミヅパにのぼって、主のもとに行かない者のことについて大いなる誓いを立てて、「その人は必ず殺されなければならない」と言ったからである。 |
| 21:6 The children of Israel grieved for Benjamin their brother, and said, "There is one tribe cut off from Israel this day. | 6 And the children of Israel repented them for Benjamin their brother, and said, There is one tribe cut off from Israel this day. | 6 しかしイスラエルの人々は兄弟ベニヤミンをあわれんで言った、「今日イスラエルに一つの部族が絶えた。 |
| 21:7 How shall we provide wives for those who remain, seeing we have sworn by Yahweh that we will not give them of our daughters to wives?" | 7 How shall we do for wives for them that remain, seeing we have sworn by the LORD that we will not give them of our daughters to wives? | 7 われわれは主をさして、われわれの娘を彼らに妻として与えないと誓ったので、かの残った者どもに妻をめとらせるにはどうしたらよいであろうか」。 |
| 21:8 They said, "What one is there of the tribes of Israel who didn't come up to Yahweh to Mizpah?" Behold, there came none to the camp from Jabesh Gilead to the assembly. | 8 And they said, What one is there of the tribes of Israel that came not up to Mizpeh to the LORD? And, behold, there came none to the camp from Jabeshgilead to the assembly. | 8 彼らはまた言った、「イスラエルの部族のうちで、ミヅパにのぼって主のもとに行かなかったのはどの部族か」。ところがヤベシ・ギレアデからはひとりも陣営にきて集会に臨んだ者がなかった。 |
| 21:9 For when the people were numbered, behold, there were none of the inhabitants of Jabesh Gilead there. | 9 For the people were numbered, and, behold, there were none of the inhabitants of Jabeshgilead there. | 9 すなわち民を集めて見ると、ヤベシ・ギレアデの住民はひとりもそこにいなかった。 |
| 21:10 The congregation sent there twelve thousand men of the most valiant, and commanded them, saying, "Go and strike the inhabitants of Jabesh Gilead with the edge of the sword, with the women and the little ones. | 10 And the congregation sent thither twelve thousand men of the valiantest, and commanded them, saying, Go and smite the inhabitants of Jabeshgilead with the edge of the sword, with the women and the children. | 10 そこで会衆は勇士一万二千人をかしこにつかわし、これに命じて言った、「ヤベシ・ギレアデに行って、その住民を、女、子供もろともつるぎをもって撃て。 |
| 21:11 This is the thing that you shall do: you shall utterly destroy every male, and every woman who has lain with a man." | 11 And this is the thing that ye shall do, Ye shall utterly destroy every male, and every woman that hath lain by man. | 11 そしてこのようにしなければならない。すなわち男および男と寝た女はことごとく滅ぼさなければならない」。 |
| 21:12 They found among the inhabitants of Jabesh Gilead four hundred young virgins, who had not known man by lying with him; and they brought them to the camp to Shiloh, which is in the land of Canaan. | 12 And they found among the inhabitants of Jabeshgilead four hundred young virgins, that had known no man by lying with any male: and they brought them unto the camp to Shiloh, which is in the land of Canaan. | 12 こうして彼らはヤベシ・ギレアデの住民のうちで四百人の若い処女を獲た。これはまだ男と寝たことがなく、男を知らない者である。彼らはこれをカナンの地にあるシロの陣営に連れてきた。 |
| 21:13 The whole congregation sent and spoke to the children of Benjamin who were in the rock of Rimmon, and proclaimed peace to them. | 13 And the whole congregation sent some to speak to the children of Benjamin that were in the rock Rimmon, and to call peaceably unto them. | 13 そこで全会衆は人をつかわして、リンモンの岩におるベニヤミンの人々に平和を告げた。 |
| 21:14 Benjamin returned at that time; and they gave them the women whom they had saved alive of the women of Jabesh Gilead: and yet so they weren't enough for them. | 14 And Benjamin came again at that time; and they gave them wives which they had saved alive of the women of Jabeshgilead: and yet so they sufficed them not. | 14 ベニヤミンの人々がその時、帰ってきたので、彼らはヤベシ・ギレアデの女のうちから生かしておいた女をこれに与えたが、なお足りなかった。 |
| 21:15 The people grieved for Benjamin, because that Yahweh had made a breach in the tribes of Israel. | 15 And the people repented them for Benjamin, because that the LORD had made a breach in the tribes of Israel. | 15 こうして民は、主がイスラエルの部族のうちに欠陥をつくられたことのために、ベニヤミンをあわれんだ。 |
| 21:16 Then the elders of the congregation said, "How shall we provide wives for those who remain, seeing the women are destroyed out of Benjamin?" | 16 Then the elders of the congregation said, How shall we do for wives for them that remain, seeing the women are destroyed out of Benjamin? | 16 会衆の長老たちは言った、「ベニヤミンの女が絶えたので、かの残りの者どもに妻をめとらせるにはどうしたらよいでしょうか」。 |
| 21:17 They said, "There must be an inheritance for those who are escaped of Benjamin, that a tribe not be blotted out from Israel. | 17 And they said, There must be an inheritance for them that be escaped of Benjamin, that a tribe be not destroyed out of Israel. | 17 彼らはまた言った、「イスラエルから一つの部族が消えうせないためにベニヤミンのうちの残りの者どもに、あとつぎがなければならない。 |
| 21:18 However we may not give them wives of our daughters, for the children of Israel had sworn, saying, 'Cursed is he who gives a wife to Benjamin.'" | 18 Howbeit we may not give them wives of our daughters: for the children of Israel have sworn, saying, Cursed be he that giveth a wife to Benjamin. | 18 しかし、われわれの娘を彼らの妻に与えることはできない。イスラエルの人々が『ベニヤミンに妻を与える者はのろわれる』と言って誓ったからである」。 |
| 21:19 They said, "Behold, there is a feast of Yahweh from year to year in Shiloh, which is on the north of Bethel, on the east side of the highway that goes up from Bethel to Shechem, and on the south of Lebonah." | 19 Then they said, Behold, there is a feast of the LORD in Shiloh yearly in a place which is on the north side of Bethel, on the east side of the highway that goeth up from Bethel to Shechem, and on the south of Lebonah. | 19 それで彼らは言った、「年々シロに主の祭がある」。シロはベテルの北にあって、ベテルからシケムにのぼる大路の東、レバナの南にある。 |
| 21:20 They commanded the children of Benjamin, saying, "Go and lie in wait in the vineyards, | 20 Therefore they commanded the children of Benjamin, saying, Go and lie in wait in the vineyards; | 20 そして彼らはベニヤミンの人々に命じて言った、「あなたがたは行って、ぶどう畑に待ち伏せして、 |
| 21:21 and see, and behold, if the daughters of Shiloh come out to dance in the dances, then come out of the vineyards, and each man catch his wife of the daughters of Shiloh, and go to the land of Benjamin. | 21 And see, and, behold, if the daughters of Shiloh come out to dance in dances, then come ye out of the vineyards, and catch you every man his wife of the daughters of Shiloh, and go to the land of Benjamin. | 21 うかがいなさい。もしシロの娘たちが踊りを踊りに出てきたならば、ぶどう畑から出て、シロの娘たちのうちから、めいめい自分の妻をとって、ベニヤミンの地に連れて行きなさい。 |
| 21:22 It shall be, when their fathers or their brothers come to complain to us, that we will say to them, 'Grant them graciously to us, because we didn't take for each man his wife in battle, neither did you give them to them, otherwise you would now be guilty.'" | 22 And it shall be, when their fathers or their brethren come unto us to complain, that we will say unto them, Be favourable unto them for our sakes: because we reserved not to each man his wife in the war: for ye did not give unto them at this time, that ye should be guilty. | 22 もしその父あるいは兄弟がきて、われわれに訴えるならば、われわれは彼らに、『われわれのために彼らをゆるしてください。戦争のときにわれわれは、彼らおのおのに妻をとってやらなかったし、またあなたがたも彼らに与えなかったからです。もし与えたならば、あなたがたは罪を犯したことになるからでした』と言いましょう」。 |
| 21:23 The children of Benjamin did so, and took them wives, according to their number, of those who danced, whom they carried off. They went and returned to their inheritance, built the cities, and lived in them. | 23 And the children of Benjamin did so, and took them wives, according to their number, of them that danced, whom they caught: and they went and returned unto their inheritance, and repaired the cities, and dwelt in them. | 23 ベニヤミンの人々はそのように行い、踊っている者どものうちから自分たちの数にしたがって妻を取り、それを連れて領地に帰り、町々を建てなおして、そこに住んだ。 |
| 21:24 The children of Israel departed there at that time, every man to his tribe and to his family, and they went out from there every man to his inheritance. | 24 And the children of Israel departed thence at that time, every man to his tribe and to his family, and they went out from thence every man to his inheritance. | 24 こうしてイスラエルの人々は、その時そこを去って、おのおのその部族および氏族に帰った。すなわちそこを立って、おのおのその嗣業の地に帰った。 |
| 21:25 In those days there was no king in Israel: every man did that which was right in his own eyes. | 25 In those days there was no king in Israel: every man did that which was right in his own eyes. | 25 そのころ、イスラエルには王がなかったので、おのおの自分の目に正しいと見るところをおこなった。 |
