Genesis 20
1 And Abraham went on his way from there to the land of the South, and was living between Kadesh and Shur, in Gerar.
アブラハム彼處より徒りて南の地に至りカデシとシユルの間に居りゲラルに寄留り
2 And Abraham said of Sarah, his wife, She is my sister: and Abimelech, king of Gerar, sent and took Sarah.
アブラハム其妻サラを我妹なりと言しかばゲラルの王アビメレク人を遣してサラを召入たり
3 But God came to Abimelech in a dream in the night, and said to him, Truly you are a dead man because of the woman whom you have taken; for she is a man's wife.
然るに神夜の夢にアビメレクに臨みて之に言たまひけるは汝は其召入たる婦人のために死るなるべし彼は夫ある者なればなり
4 Now Abimelech had not come near her; and he said, Lord, will you put to death an upright nation?
アビメレク未だ彼に近づかざりしかば言ふ主よ汝は義き民をも殺したまふや
5 Did he not say to me himself, She is my sister? and she herself said, He is my brother: with an upright heart and clean hands have I done this.
彼は我に是はわが妹なりと言しにあらずや又婦も自彼はわが兄なりと言たり我全き心と潔き手をもて此をなせり
6 And God said to him in the dream, I see that you have done this with an upright heart, and I have kept you from sinning against me: for this reason I did not let you come near her.
神又夢に之に言たまひけるは然り我汝が全き心をもて之をなせるを知りたれば我も汝を阻めて罪を我に犯さしめざりき彼に觸るを容ざりしは是がためなり
7 So now, give the man back his wife, for he is a prophet, and let him say a prayer for you, so your life may be safe: but if you do not give her back, be certain that death will come to you and all your house.
然ば彼の妻を歸せ彼は預言者なれば汝のために祈り汝をして生命を保しめん汝若歸ずば汝と汝に屬する者皆必死るべきを知るべし
8 So Abimelech got up early in the morning and sent for all his servants and gave them word of these things, and they were full of fear.
是に於てアビメレク其朝夙に起て臣僕を悉く召し此事を皆語り聞せければ人々甚く懼れたり
9 Then Abimelech sent for Abraham, and said, What have you done to us? what wrong have I done you that you have put on me and on my kingdom so great a sin? You have done to me things which are not to be done.
斯てアビメレク、アブラハムを召て之に言けるは爾我等に何を爲すや我何の惡き事を爾になしたれば爾大なる罪を我とわが國に蒙らしめんとせしか爾爲べからざる所爲を我に爲したり
10 And Abimelech said to Abraham, Why did you do this thing?
アビメレク又アブラハムに言けるは爾何を見て此事を爲たるや
11 And Abraham said, Because it seemed to me that there was no fear of God in this place, and that they might put me to death because of my wife.
アブラハム言けるは我此處はかならず神を畏れざるべければ吾妻のために人我を殺さんと思ひたるなり
12 And, in fact, she is my sister, the daughter of my father, but not the daughter of my mother; and she became my wife:
又我は誠にわが妹なり彼はわが父の子にしてわが母の子にあらざるが遂に我妻となりたるなり
13 And when God sent me wandering from my father's house, I said to her, Let this be the sign of your love for me; wherever we go, say of me, He is my brother.
神我をして吾父の家を離れて周遊しめたまへる時に當りて我彼に爾我等が至る處にて我を爾の兄なりと言へ是は爾が我に施す恩なりと言たり
14 Then Abimelech gave to Abraham sheep and oxen and men-servants and women-servants, and gave him back his wife Sarah.
アビメレク乃ち羊牛僕婢を將てアブラハムに與へ其妻サラ之に歸せり
15 And Abimelech said, See, all my land is before you; take whatever place seems good to you.
而してアビメレク言けるは視よ我地は爾のまへにあり爾の好むところに住め
16 And he said to Sarah, See, I have given to your brother a thousand bits of silver so that your wrong may be put right; now your honour is clear in the eyes of all.
又サラに言けるは視よ我爾の兄に銀千枚を與へたり是は爾および諸の人にありし事等につきて爾の目を蔽ふ者なり斯爾償贖を得たり
17 Then Abraham made prayer to God, and God made Abimelech well again, and his wife and his women-servants, so that they had children.
是に於てアブラハム神に祈りければ神アビメレクと其妻および婢を醫したまひて彼等子を產むにいたる
18 For the Lord had kept all the women of the house of Abimelech from having children, because of Sarah, Abraham's wife.
ヱホバさきにはアブラハムの妻サラの故をもてアビメレクの家の者の胎をことごとく閉たまへり
