< Deuteronomy 7 >

1 And when the Lord thy God shall bring thee into the land, into which thou goest to possess it, and shall remove great nations from before thee, the Chettite, and Gergesite, and Amorite, and Chananite, and Pherezite, and Evite, and Jebusite, seven nations [more] numerous and stronger than you,
汝の神ヱホバ汝が往て獲べきところの地に汝を導きいり多の國々の民ヘテ人ギルガシ人アモリ人カナン人ペリジ人ヒビ人ヱブス人など汝よりも數多くして力ある七の民を汝の前より逐はらひたまはん時
2 and the Lord thy God shall deliver them into thy hands, then thou shalt smite them: thou shalt utterly destroy them: thou shalt not make a covenant with them, neither shall ye pity them:
すなはち汝の神ヱホバかれらを汝に付して汝にこれを撃せたまはん時は汝かれらをことごとく滅すべし彼らと何の契約をもなすべからず彼らを憫むべからず
3 neither shall ye contract marriages with them: thou shalt not give thy daughter to his son, and thou shalt not take his daughter to thy son.
また彼らと婚姻をなすべからず汝の女子を彼の男子に與ふべからず彼の女子を汝の男子に娶るべからず
4 For he will draw away thy son from me, and he will serve other gods; and the Lord will be very angry with you, and will soon utterly destroy thee.
其は彼ら汝の男子を惑はして我を離れしめ之をして他の神々に事へしむるありてヱホバこれがために汝らにむかひて怒を發し俄然に汝を滅したまふにいたるべければなり
5 But thus shall ye do to them; ye shall destroy their altars, and shall break down their pillars, and shall cut down their groves, and shall burn with fire the graven images of their gods.
汝らは反て斯かれらに行ふべし即ちかれらの壇を毀ちその偶像を打擢きそのアシラ像を斫たふし火をもてその雕像を焚べし
6 For thou art a holy people to the Lord thy God; and the Lord thy God chose thee to be to him a peculiar people beyond all nations that [are] upon the face of the earth.
其は汝は汝の神ヱホバの聖民なればなり汝の神ヱホバは地の面の諸の民の中より汝を擇びて己の寶の民となしたまへり
7 It was not because ye are more numerous than all [other] nations that the Lord preferred you, and the Lord made choice of you: for ye are fewer in number than all [other] nations.
ヱホバの汝らを愛し汝らを擇びたまひしは汝らが萬の民よりも數多かりしに因にあらず汝らは萬の民の中にて最も小き者なればなり
8 But because the Lord loved you, and as keeping the oath which he sware to your fathers, the Lord brought you out with a strong hand, and the Lord redeemed thee from the house of bondage, out of the hand of Pharao king of Egypt.
但ヱホバ汝らを愛するに因りまた汝らの先祖等に誓し誓を保たんとするに因てヱホバ強き手をもて汝らを導きいだし汝らを其奴隸たりし家よりエジプトの王パロの手より贖ひいだしたまへるなり
9 Thou shalt know therefore, that the Lord thy God, he [is] God, a faithful God, who keeps covenant and mercy for them that love him, and for those that keep his commandments to a thousand generations,
汝知べし汝の神ヱホバは神にましまし眞實の神にましまして之を愛しその誡命を守る者には契約を保ち恩惠をほどこして千代にいたり
10 and who recompenses them that hate him to their face, to destroy them utterly; and will not be slack with them that hate him: he will recompense them to their face.
また之を惡む者には覿面にその報をなしてこれを滅ぼしたまふヱホバは己を惡む者には緩ならず覿面にこれに報いたまふなり
11 Thou shalt keep therefore the commands, and the ordinances, and these judgments, which I command thee this day to do.
然ば汝わが今日汝に命ずるところの誡命と法度と律法とを守りてこれを行ふべし
12 And it shall come to pass when ye shall have heard these ordinances, and shall have kept and done them, that the Lord thy God shall keep for thee the covenant and the mercy, which he sware to your fathers.
汝らもし是らの律法を聽きこれを守り行はば汝の神ヱホバ汝の先祖等に誓ひし契約を保ちて汝に恩惠をほどこしたまはん
13 And he will love thee, and bless thee, and multiply thee; and he will bless the off-spring of thy body, and the fruit of thy land, thy corn, and thy wine, and thine oil, the herds of thine oxen, and the flocks of thy sheep, on the land which the Lord sware to thy fathers to give to thee.
即ち汝を愛し汝を惠み汝の數を増したまひその昔なんぢに與へんと汝らの先祖等に誓たりし地において汝の兒女をめぐみ汝の地の產物穀物酒油等を殖し汝の牛の產汝の羊の產を増たまふべし
14 Thou shalt be blessed beyond all nations; there shall not be among you an impotent or barren one, or among thy cattle.
汝は惠まるること萬の民に愈らん汝らの中および汝らの家畜の中には男も女も子なき者は無るべし
15 And the Lord thy God shall remove from thee all sickness; and none of the evil diseases of Egypt, which thou hast seen, and all that thou hast known, will he lay upon thee; but he will lay them upon all that hate thee.
ヱホバまた諸の疾病を汝の身より除きたまひ汝らが知る彼のエジプトの惡き病を汝の身に臨ましめず但汝を惡む者に之を臨ませたまふべし
16 And thou shalt eat all the spoils of the nations which the Lord thy God gives thee; thine eye shall not spare them, and thou shalt not serve their gods; for this is an offence to thee.
汝は汝の神ヱホバの汝に付したまはんところの民をことごとく滅しつくすべし彼らを憫み見べからずまた彼らの神に事ふべからずその事汝の罟となればなり
17 But if thou shouldest say in thine heart, This nation [is] greater than I, how shall I be able to destroy them utterly?
汝是らの民は我よりも衆ければ我いかでか之を逐はらふことを得んと心に謂ふか
18 thou shalt not fear them; thou shalt surely remember all that the Lord thy God did to Pharao and to all the Egyptians:
汝かれらを懼るるなかれ汝の神ヱホバがパロとエジプトに爲たまひしところの事を善く憶えよ
19 the great temptations which thine eyes have seen, those signs and great wonders, the strong hand, and the high arm; how the Lord thy God brought thee forth: so the Lord your God will do to all the nations, whom thou fearest in their presence.
即ち汝が眼に見たる大なる試煉と徴證と奇蹟と強き手と伸たる腕とを憶えよ汝の神ヱホバこれをもて汝を導き出したまへり是のごとく汝の神ヱホバまた汝が懼るる一切の民に爲たまふべし
20 And the Lord thy God shall send against them the hornets, until they that are left and they that are hidden from thee be utterly destroyed.
即ち汝の神ヱホバ黄蜂を彼らの中に遣りて終に彼らの遺れる者と汝の面を避て匿れたる者とを滅したまはん
21 Thou shalt not be wounded before them, because the Lord thy God in the midst of thee [is] a great and powerful God.
汝かれらを懼るる勿れ其は汝の神ヱホバ能力ある畏るべき神汝らの中にいませばなり
22 And the Lord thy God shall consume these nations before thee by little and little: thou shalt not be able to consume them speedily, lest the land become desert, and the wild beasts of the field be multiplied against thee.
汝の神ヱホバ是等の國人を漸々に汝の前より逐はらひたまはん汝は急速に彼らを滅しつくす可らず恐くは野の獣殖て汝に逼らん
23 And the Lord thy God shall deliver them into thy hands, and thou shalt destroy them with a great destruction, until ye shall have utterly destroyed them.
汝の神ヱホバかれらを汝に付し大にこれを惶れ慄かしめて終にこれを滅し盡し
24 And he shall deliver their kings into your hands, and ye shall destroy their name from that place; none shall stand up in opposition before thee, until thou shalt have utterly destroyed them.
彼らの王等を汝の手に付したまはん汝かれらの名を天が下より削るべし汝には當ることを得る者なくして汝つひに之を滅ぼし盡すに至らん
25 Ye shall burn with fire the graven images of their gods: thou shalt not covet [their] silver, neither shalt thou take to thyself gold from them, lest thou shouldest offend thereby, because it is an abomination to the Lord thy God.
汝かれらの神の雕像を火にて焚べし之に著せたる銀あるひは金を貧るべからず之を己に取べからず恐くは汝これに因て罟にかからん是は汝の神ヱホバの憎みたまふ者なれば也
26 And thou shalt not bring an abomination into thine house, so shouldest thou be an accursed thing like it; thou shalt utterly hate it, and altogether abominate it, because it is an accursed thing.
憎むべき物を汝の家に携へいるべからず恐くは汝も其ごとくに詛はるる者とならん汝これを大に忌み痛く嫌ふべし是は詛ふべき者なればなり
