Deuteronomy 29
1 These are the words of the covenant that the LORD commanded Moses to make with the Israelites in the land of Moab, in addition to the covenant He had made with them at Horeb.
ヱホバ、モーセに命じモアブの地にてイスラエルの子孫と契約を結ばしめたまふその言は斯のごとし是はホレブにてかれらと結びし契約の外なる者なり
2 Moses summoned all Israel and proclaimed to them, “You have seen with your own eyes everything the LORD did in Egypt to Pharaoh, to all his officials, and to all his land.
モーセ、イスラエルの全家を呼あつめて之に言けるは汝らはヱホバがエジプトの地において汝らの目の前にてパロとその臣下とその全地とに爲たまひし一切の事を觀たり
3 You saw with your own eyes the great trials, and those miraculous signs and wonders.
即ち其大なる試煉と徴證と大なる奇跡とを汝目に觀たるなり
4 Yet to this day the LORD has not given you a mind to understand, eyes to see, or ears to hear.
然るにヱホバ今日にいたるまで汝らの心をして悟ることなく目をして見ることなく耳をして聞ことなからしめたまへり
5 For forty years I led you in the wilderness, yet your clothes and sandals did not wear out.
四十年の間われ汝らを導きて曠野を通りしが汝らの身の衣服は古びず汝の足の鞋は古びざりき
6 You ate no bread and drank no wine or strong drink, so that you might know that I am the LORD your God.
汝らはまたパンをも食はず葡萄酒をも濃酒をも飮ざりき斯ありて汝らは我が汝らの神ヱホバなることを知り
7 When you reached this place, Sihon king of Heshbon and Og king of Bashan came out against us in battle, but we defeated them.
汝らこの處に來りし時ヘシボンの王シホンおよびバシヤンの王オグ我らを迎へて戰ひしが我らこれを打敗りて
8 We took their land and gave it as an inheritance to the Reubenites, the Gadites, and the half-tribe of Manasseh.
その地を取りこれをルベン人とガド人とマナセの半支派とに與へて產業となさしめたり
9 So keep and follow the words of this covenant, that you may prosper in all you do.
然ば汝らこの契約の言を守りてこれを行ふべし然れば汝らの凡て爲ところに祥あらん
10 All of you are standing today before the LORD your God—you leaders of tribes, elders, officials, and all the men of Israel,
汝らみな今日なんぢらの神ヱホバの前に立つ即ち汝らの首領等なんぢらの支派なんぢらの長老等および汝らの牧司等などイスラエルの一切の人
11 your children and wives, and the foreigners in your camps who cut your wood and draw your water—
汝らの小き者等汝らの妻ならびに汝らの營の中にをる客旅など凡て汝のために薪を割る者より水を汲む者にいたるまで皆ヱホバの前に立て
12 so that you may enter into the covenant of the LORD your God, which He is making with you today, and into His oath,
汝の神ヱホバの契約に入んとし又汝の神ヱホバの汝にむかひて今日なしたまふところの誓に入んとす
13 and so that He may establish you today as His people, and He may be your God as He promised you and as He swore to your fathers, to Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob.
然ばヱホバさきに汝に言しごとくまた汝の先祖アブラハム、イサク、ヤコブに誓ひしごとく今日なんぢを立て己の民となし己みづから汝の神となりたまはん
14 I am making this covenant and this oath not only with you,
我はただ汝らと而已此契約と誓とを結ぶにあらず
15 but also with those who are standing here with us today in the presence of the LORD our God, as well as with those who are not here today.
今日此にてわれらの神ヱホバの前に我らとともにたちをる者ならびに今日われらとともに此にたち居ざる者ともこれを結ぶなり
16 For you yourselves know how we lived in the land of Egypt and how we passed through the nations on the way here.
我らは如何にエジプトの地に住をりしか如何に國々を通り來りしか汝らこれを知り
17 You saw the abominations and idols among them made of wood and stone, of silver and gold.
汝らはまた木石金銀にて造れる憎むべき物および偶像のその國々にあるを見たり
18 Make sure there is no man or woman, clan or tribe among you today whose heart turns away from the LORD our God to go and worship the gods of those nations. Make sure there is no root among you that bears such poisonous and bitter fruit,
然ば汝らの中に今日その心に我らの神ヱホバを離れて其等の國々の神に往て事ふる男女宗族支派などあるべからず又なんぢらの中に葶藶または茵蔯を生ずる根あるべからず
19 because when such a person hears the words of this oath, he invokes a blessing on himself, saying, ‘I will have peace, even though I walk in the stubbornness of my own heart.’ This will bring disaster on the watered land as well as the dry.
斯る人はこの呪詛の言を聞もその心に自ら幸福なりと思ひて言ん我はわが心を剛愎にして事をなすも尚平安なり終には酔飽る者をもて渇ける者を除くにいたらんと
20 The LORD will never be willing to forgive him. Instead, His anger and jealousy will burn against that man, and every curse written in this book will fall upon him. The LORD will blot out his name from under heaven
是のごとき人はヱホバかならず之を赦したまはじ還てヱホバの忿怒と嫉妬の火これが上に燃えまたこの書にしるしたる災禍みなその身に加はらんヱホバつひにその人の名を天が下より抹さりたまふべし
21 and single him out from all the tribes of Israel for disaster, according to all the curses of the covenant written in this Book of the Law.
ヱホバすなはちイスラエルの諸の支派の中よりその人を分ちてこれに災禍を下しこの律法の書にしるしたる契約中の諸の呪詛のごとくしたまはん
22 Then the generation to come—your sons who follow you and the foreigner who comes from a distant land—will see the plagues of the land and the sicknesses the LORD has inflicted on it.
汝等の後に起る汝らの子孫の代の人および遠き國より來る客旅この地の災禍を見またヱホバがこの地に流行せたまふ疾病を見て言ところあらん
23 All its soil will be a burning waste of sulfur and salt, unsown and unproductive, with no plant growing on it, just like the destruction of Sodom and Gomorrah, Admah and Zeboiim, which the LORD overthrew in His fierce anger.
即ち彼ら見るにその全地は硫黄となり鹽となり且燒土となりて種も蒔れず產する所もなく何の草もその上に生せずして彼の昔ヱホバがその震怒と忿恨とをもて毀ちたましソドム、ゴモラ、アデマ、ゼポイムの毀たれたると同じかるべければ
24 So all the nations will ask, ‘Why has the LORD done such a thing to this land? Why this great outburst of anger?’
彼らも國々の人もみな言んヱホバ何とて斯この地になしたるやこの烈しき大なる震怒は何事ぞやと
25 And the people will answer, ‘It is because they abandoned the covenant of the LORD, the God of their fathers, which He made with them when He brought them out of the land of Egypt.
その時人應へて曰ん彼らはその先祖たちの神ヱホバがエジプトの地より彼らを導きいだして彼らと結びたるその契約を棄て
26 They went and served other gods, and they worshiped gods they had not known—gods that the LORD had not given to them.
往て己の識ずまた授らざる他の神々に事へてこれを拝みたるが故なり
27 Therefore the anger of the LORD burned against this land, and He brought upon it every curse written in this book.
是をもてヱホバこの地にむかひて震怒を發しこの書にしるしたる諸の災禍をこれに下し
28 The LORD uprooted them from their land in His anger, rage, and great wrath, and He cast them into another land, where they are today.’
而してヱホバ震怒と忿恨と大なる憤怨をもて彼らをこの地より抜とりてこれを他の國に投やれりその状今日のごとし
29 The secret things belong to the LORD our God, but the things revealed belong to us and to our children forever, so that we may follow all the words of this law.
隠微たる事は我らの神ヱホバに屬する者なりまた顯露されたる事は我らと我らの子孫に屬し我らをしてこの律法の諸の言を行はしむる者なり
