Kings I 1
1 There was a man of Armathaim Sipha, of mount Ephraim, and his name [was] Helkana, a son of Jeremeel the son of Elias the son of Thoke, in Nasib Ephraim.
エフライムの山地のラマタイムゾビムにエルカナと名くる人ありエフライテ人にしてエロハムの子なりエロハムはエリウの子エリウはトフの子トフはツフの子なり
2 And he [had] two wives; the name of the one [was] Anna, and the name of the second Phennana. And Phennana had children, but Anna had no child.
エルカナに二人の妻ありてひとりの名をハンナといひひとりの名をペニンナといふペニンナには子ありたれどもハンナには子あらざりき
3 And the man went up from year to year from his city, from Armathaim, to worship and sacrifice to the Lord God of Sabaoth at Selom: and [there were] Heli and his two sons Ophni and Phinees, the priests of the Lord.
是人毎歳に其邑をいで上りてシロにおいて萬軍のヱホバを拝み之に祭物をささぐ其處にエリの二人の子ホフニとピネハスをりてヱホバに祭司たり
4 And the day came, and Helkana sacrificed, and gave portions to his wife Phennana and her children.
エルカナ祭物をささぐる時其妻ペニンナと其すべての息子女子にわかちあたへしが
5 And to Anna he gave a prime portion, because she had no child, only Helkana loved Anna more than the other; but the Lord [had] closed her womb.
ハンナには其倍をあたふ是はハンナを愛するが故なりされどヱホバ其孕みをとどめたまふ
6 For the Lord gave her no child in her affliction, and according to the despondency of her affliction; and she was dispirited on this account, that the Lord shut up her womb so as not to give her a child.
其敵もまた痛くこれをなやましてヱホバが其はらみをとどめしを怒らせんとす
7 So she did year by year, in going up to the house of the Lord; and she was dispirited, and wept, and did not eat.
歳々ハンナ、ヱホバの家にのぼるごとにエルカナかくなせしかばペニンナかくのごとく之をなやます是故にハンナないてものくはざりき
8 And Helkana her husband said to her, Anna: and she said to him, Here [am] I, my lord: and he said to her, What ails thee that thou weepest? and why dost thou not eat? and why does thy heart smite thee? [am] I not better to thee than ten children?
其夫エルカナ之にいひけるはハンナよ何故になくや何故にものくはざるや何故に心かなしむや我は汝のためには十人の子よりもまさるにあらずや
9 And Anna rose up after they had eaten in Selom, and stood before the Lord: and Heli the priest [was] on a seat by the threshold of the temple of the Lord.
かくてシロにて食飮せしのちハンナたちあがれり時に祭司エリ、ヱホバの宮の柱の傍にある壇に坐す
10 And she [was] very much grieved in spirit, and prayed to the Lord, and wept abundantly.
ハンナ心にくるしみヱホバにいのりて甚く哭き
11 And she vowed a vow to the Lord, saying, O Lord God of Sabaoth, if thou welt indeed look upon the humiliation of thine handmaid, and remember me, and give to thine handmaid a man-child, then will I indeed dedicate him to thee till the day of his death; and he shall drink no wine nor strong drink, and no razor shall come upon his head.
誓をなしていひけるは萬軍のヱホバよ若し誠に婢の惱をかへりみ我を憶ひ婢を忘れずして婢に男子をあたへたまはば我これを一生のあひだヱホバにささげ剃髮刀を其首にあつまじ
12 And it came to pass, while she was long praying before the Lord, that Heli the priest marked her mouth.
ハンナ、ヱホバのまへに長くいのりければエリ其口に目をとめたり
13 And she was speaking in her heart, and her lips moved, but her voice was not heard: and Heli accounted her a drunken woman.
ハンナ心の中にものいへば只唇うごくのみにて聲きこえず是故にエリこれを酔たる者と思ひ
14 And the servant of Heli said to her, How long wilt thou be drunken? take away thy wine from thee, and go out from the presence of the Lord.
之にいひけるは何時まで酔ひをるか爾の酒をされよ
15 And Anna answered and said, Nay, my lord, [I live] in a hard day, and I have not drunk wine or strong drink, and I pour out my soul before the Lord.
ハンナこたへていひけるは主よ然るにあらず我は氣のわづらふ婦人にして葡萄酒をも濃き酒をものまず惟わが心をヱホバのまへに明せるなり
16 Count not thy handmaid for a pestilent woman, for by reason of the abundance of my importunity I have continued [my prayer] until now.
婢を邪なる女となすなかれ我はわが憂と悲みの多きよりして今までかたれり
17 And Heli answered and said to her, Go in peace: the God of Israel give thee all thy petition, which thou hast asked of him.
エリ答へていひけるは安んじて去れ願くはイスラエルの神汝の求むる願ひを許したまはんことを
18 And she said, Thine handmaid has found favour in thine eyes: and the woman went her way, and entered into her lodging, and ate and drank with her husband, and her countenance was no more sad.
ハンナいひけるはねがはくは仕女の汝のまへに恩をえんことをと斯てこの婦さりて食ひ其顔ふたたび哀しげならざりき
19 And they rise early in the morning, and worship the Lord, and they go their way: and Helkana went into his house at Armathaim, and knew his wife Anna; and the Lord remembered her, and she conceived.
是に於て彼等朝はやくおきてヱホバの前に拝をしかへりてラマの家にいたる而してエルカナ其つまハンナとまじはるヱホバ之をかへりみたまふ
20 And it came to pass when the time was come, that she brought forth a son, and called his name Samuel, and said, Because I asked him of the Lord God of Sabaoth.
ハンナ孕みてのち月みちて男子をうみ我これをヱホバに求めし故なりとて其名をサムエル(ヱホバに聽る)となづく
21 And the man Helkana and all his house went up to offer in Selom the yearly sacrifice, and his vows, and all the tithes of his land.
爰に其人エルカナ及び其家族みな上りて年々の祭物及び其誓ひし物をささぐ
22 But Anna did not go up with him, for she said to her husband, [I will not go up] until the child goes up, when I have weaned him, and he shall be presented before the Lord, and he shall abide there continually.
然どもハンナは上らず其夫にいひけるは我はこの子の乳ばなれするに及びてのち之をたづさへゆきヱホバのまへにあらはれしめ恒にかしこに居らしめん
23 And Helkana her husband said to her, Do that which is good in thine eyes, abide still until thou shalt have weaned him; but may the Lord establish that which comes out of thy mouth: and the woman tarried, and suckled her son until she had weaned him.
其夫エルカナ之にいひけるは汝の善と思ふところを爲し此子を乳ばなすまでとどまるべし只ヱホバの其言を確實ならしめ賜んことをねがふと斯くこの婦止まりて其子に乳をのませ其ちばなれするをまちしが
24 And she went up with him to Selom with a calf of three years old, and loaves, and an ephah of fine flour, and a bottle of wine: and she entered into the house of the Lord in Selom, and the child with them.
乳ばなせしとき牛三頭粉一斗酒一嚢を取り其子をたづさへてシロにあるヱホバの家にいたる其子なほ幼稚し
25 And they brought him before the Lord; and his father slew his offering which he offered from year to year to the Lord; and he brought near the child, and slew the calf; and Anna the mother of the child brought him to Heli.
是に於て牛をころしその子をエリの許に携へゆきぬ
26 And she said, I pray thee, my lord, as thy soul liveth, I [am] the woman that stood in thy presence with thee while praying to the Lord.
ハンナいひけるは主よ汝のたましひは活くわれはかつてここにてなんぢの傍にたちヱホバにいのりし婦なり
27 For this child I prayed; and the Lord has given me my request that I asked of him.
われ此子のためにいのりしにヱホバわが求めしものをあたへたまへり
28 And I lend him to the Lord all his days that he lives, a loan to the Lord: and she said,
此故にわれまたこれをヱホバにささげん其一生のあひだ之をヱホバにささぐ斯てかしこにてヱホバををがめり
