Numbers 27
1 Then the daughters of Zelophehad, the son of Hepher, the son of Gilead, the son of Machir, the son of Manasseh, of the families of Manasseh, the son of Joseph, came forward: their names are Mahlah, Noah, and Hoglah, and Milcah, and Tirzah.
茲にヨセフの子マナセの族の中なるヘペルの子ゼロペハデの女子等きたれりヘペルはギレアデの子ギレアデはマキルの子マキルはマナセの子なりその女子等の名はマアラ、ノア、ホグラ、ミルカ、テルザといふ
2 They came before Moses and Eleazar the priest and the chiefs and all the people at the door of the Tent of meeting, and said,
彼ら集會の幕屋の門にてモーセと祭司エレアザルと牧伯等と全會衆の前に立ち言けるは
3 Death overtook our father in the waste land; he was not among those who were banded together with Korah against the Lord; but death came to him in his sin; and he had no sons.
我等の父は曠野に死り彼はかのコラに與して集りてヱホバに逆ひし者等の中に加はらず自己の罪に死り然るに男子なし
4 Why is the name of our father to be taken away from among his family, because he had no son? Give us a heritage among our father's brothers.
我らの父の名なんぞその男子あらざるがためにその族の中より削らるることある可んや我らの父の兄弟の中において我らにも產業を與へよと
5 So Moses put their cause before the Lord.
モーセすなはちその事をヱホバの前に陳けるに
6 And the Lord said to Moses,
ヱホバ、モーセに告て言たまはく
7 What the daughters of Zelophehad say is right: certainly you are to give them a heritage among their father's brothers: and let the property which would have been their father's go to them.
ゼロペハデの女子等の言ところは道理なり汝かならず彼らの父の兄弟の中において彼らに產業を與へて獲さすべし即ちその父の產業をこれに歸せしむべし
8 And say to the children of Israel, If a man has no son at the time of his death, let his heritage go to his daughter.
汝イスラエルの子孫に告て言べし人もし男子なくして死ばその產業をこれが女子に歸せしむべし
9 And if he has no daughter, then give his heritage to his brothers.
もしまた女子もあらざる時はその產業をその兄弟に與ふべし
10 And if he has no brothers, then give his heritage to his father's brothers.
もし兄弟あらざる時はその產業をその父の兄弟に與ふべし
11 And if his father has no brothers, then give it to his nearest relation in the family, as his heritage: this is to be a decision made by law for the children of Israel, as the Lord gave orders to Moses.
もしまたその父に兄弟あらざる時はその親戚の最も近き者にその產業を與へて獲さすべしヱホバのモーセに命ぜしごとくイスラエルの子孫は永く之をもて律法の例とすべし
12 And the Lord said to Moses, Go up into this mountain of Abarim so that you may see the land which I have given to the children of Israel.
茲にヱホバ、モーセに言たまはく汝このアバリム山にのぼり我イスラエルの子孫に與へし地を觀よ
13 And when you have seen it, you will be put to rest with your people, as your brother Aaron was:
汝これを觀なばアロンの旣に加はりしごとく汝もその民に加はるべし
14 Because in the waste land of Zin, when the people were angry, you and he went against my word and did not keep my name holy before their eyes, at the waters. (These are the waters of Meribah in Kadesh in the waste land of Zin.)
是チンの曠野において會衆の爭論をなせる砌に汝らわが命に悸りかの水の側にて我の聖き事をかれらの目のまへに顯すことを爲ざりしが故なり是すなはちチンの曠野のカデシにあるメリバの水なり
15 Then Moses said to the Lord,
モーセ、ヱホバに申して言けるは
16 Let the Lord, the God of the spirits of all flesh, put a man at the head of this people,
ヱホバ一切の血肉ある者の生命の神よ願くはこの會衆の上に一人を立て
17 To go out and come in before them and be their guide; so that the people of the Lord may not be like sheep without a keeper.
之をして彼等の前に出かれらの前に入り彼らを導き出し彼らを導き入る者とならしめヱホバの會衆をして牧者なき羊のごとくならざらしめたまへ
18 And the Lord said to Moses, Take Joshua, the son of Nun, a man in whom is the spirit, and put your hand on him;
ヱホバ、モーセに言たまはくヌンの子ヨシユアといふ霊のやどれる人を取り汝の手をその上に按き
19 And take him before Eleazar the priest and all the meeting of the people, and give him his orders before their eyes.
これを祭司エレアザルと全會衆の前に立せて彼らの前にて之に命ずる事をなすべし
20 And put your honour on him, so that all the children of Israel may be under his authority.
汝これに自己の尊榮を分ち與ヘイスラエルの子孫の全會衆をしてこれに順がはしむべし
21 He will take his place before Eleazar the priest, so that he may get directions from the Lord for him, with the Urim: at his word they will go out, and at his word they will come in, he and all the children of Israel.
彼は祭司エレアザルの前に立べしエレアザルはウリムをもて彼のためにヱホバの前に問ことを爲べしヨシユアとイスラエルの子孫すなはちその全會衆はエレアザルの言にしたがひて出でエレアザルの言にしたがひて入べし
22 So Moses did as the Lord said: he took Joshua and put him before Eleazar the priest and the meeting of the people:
是においてモーセはヱホバの己に命じたまへるごとく爲しヨシユアを取て之を祭司エレアザルと全會衆の前に立せ
23 And he put his hands on him and gave him his orders, as the Lord had said by Moses.
その手をこれが上に按き之に命ずることを爲しヱホバのモーセをもて命じたまへる如くなせり
