< Genesis 47 >

1 And Joseph came and told Pharao, [saying], My father, and my brethren, and their cattle, and their oxen, and all their possessions, are come out of the land of Chanaan, and behold, they are in the land of Gesem.
茲にヨセフゆきてパロにつげていひけるはわが父と兄弟およびその羊と牛と諸の所有物カナンの地よりいたれり彼らはゴセンの地にをると
2 And he took of his brethren five men, and set them before Pharao.
その兄弟の中より五人をとりてこれをパロにまみえしむ
3 And Pharao said to the brethren of Joseph, What is your occupation? and they said to Pharao, Thy servants are shepherds, both we and our father.
パロ、ヨセフの兄弟等にいひけるは汝らの業は何なるか彼等パロにいふ僕等は牧者なりわれらも先祖等もともにしかりと
4 And they said to Pharao, We are come to sojourn in the land, for there is no pasture for the flocks of thy servants, for the famine has prevailed in the land of Chanaan; now then, we will dwell in the land of Gesem. And Pharao said to Joseph, Let them dwell in the land of Gesem; and if thou knowest that there are among them able men, make them overseers of my cattle. So Jacob and his sons came into Egypt, to Joseph; and Pharao, king of Egypt, heard [of it].
かれら又パロにいひけるは此國に寓らんとて我等はきたる其はカナンの地に饑饉はげしくして僕等の群をやしなふ牧場なければなりされば請ふ僕等をしてゴセンの地にすましめたまへ
5 And Pharao spoke to Joseph, saying, Thy father, and thy brethren, are come to thee.
パロ、ヨセフにかたりていふ汝の父と兄弟汝の所にきたれり
6 Behold, the land of Egypt is before thee; settle thy father and thy brethren in the best land.
エジプトの地はなんぢの前にあり地の善き處に汝の父と兄弟をすましめよすなはちゴセンの地にかれらをすましめよ汝もし彼等の中に才能ある者あるをしらば其人々をしてわが家畜をつかさどらしめよ
7 And Joseph brought in Jacob his father, and set him before Pharao; and Jacob blessed Pharao.
ヨセフまた父ヤコブを引ていりパロの前にたたしむヤコブ、パロを祝す
8 And Pharao said to Jacob, How many are the years of the days of thy life?
パロ、ヤコブにいふ汝の齡の日は幾何なるか
9 And Jacob said to Pharao, The days of the years of my life, wherein I sojourn, are a hundred and thirty years; few and evil have been the days of the years of my life, they have not attained to the days of the life of my fathers, in which days they sojourned.
ヤコブ、パロにいひけるはわが旅路の年月は百三十年にいたる我が齡の日は僅少にして且惡かり未だわが先祖等の齡の日と旅路の日にはおよばざるなり
10 And Jacob blessed Pharao, and departed from him.
ヤコブ、パロを祝しパロのまへよりいでさりぬ
11 And Joseph settled his father and his brethren, and gave them a possession in the land of Egypt, in the best land, in the land of Ramesses, as Pharao commanded.
ヨセフ、パロの命ぜしごとくその父と兄弟に居所を與へエジプトの國の中の善き地即ちラメセスの地をかれらにあたへて所有となさしむ
12 And Joseph gave provision to his father, and his brethren, and to all the house of his father, corn for each person.
ヨセフその父と兄弟と父の全家にその子の數にしたがひて食物をあたへて養へり
13 And there was no corn in all the land, for the famine prevailed greatly; and the land of Egypt, and the land of Chanaan, fainted for the famine.
却説饑饉ははなはだはげしくして全國に食物なくエジプトの國とカナンの國饑饉のために弱れり
14 And Joseph gathered all the money that was found in the land of Egypt, and the land of Chanaan, [in return for] the corn which they bought, and he distributed corn to them; and Joseph brought all the money into the house of Pharao.
ヨセフ穀物を賣あたへてエジプトの地とカナンの地にありし金をことごとく斂む而してヨセフその金をパロの家にもちきたる
15 And all the money failed out of the land of Egypt, and out of the land of Chanaan; and all the Egyptians came to Joseph, saying, Give us bread, and why do we die in thy presence? for our money is spent.
エジプトの國とカナンの國に金つきたればエジプト人みなヨセフにいたりていふ我等に食物をあたへよ如何ぞなんぢの前に死べけんや金すでにたえたり
16 And Joseph said to them, Bring your cattle, and I will give you bread for your cattle, if your money is spent.
ヨセフいひけるは汝等の家畜をいだせ金もしたえたらば我なんぢらの家畜にかへて與ふべしと
17 And they brought their cattle to Joseph; and Joseph gave them bread in return for their horses, and for their sheep, and for their oxen, and for their asses; and Joseph maintained them with bread for all their cattle in that year.
かれら乃ちその家畜をヨセフにひききたりければヨセフその馬と羊の群と牛の群および驢馬にかへて食物をかれらにあたへそのすべての家畜のために其年のあひだ食物をあたへてこれをやしなふ
18 And that year passed, and they came to him in the second year, and said to him, Must we then be consumed from before our lord? for if our money has failed, and our possessions, and our cattle, [brought] to thee our lord, and there has not been left to us before our lord more than our own bodies and our land, [we are indeed destitute].
かくてその年暮けるが明年にいたりて人衆またヨセフにきたりて之にいふ我等主に隱すところなしわれらの金は竭たりまたわれらの畜の群は主に皈す主のまへにいだすべき者は何ものこりをらず唯われらの身體と田地あるのみ
19 In order, then, that we die not before thee, and the land be made desolate, buy us and our land for bread, and we and our land will be servants to Pharao: give seed that we may sow, and live and not die, so our land shall not be made desolate.
われらいかんぞわれらの田地とともに汝の目のまへに死亡ぶべけんや我等とわれらの田地を食物に易て買とれ我等田地とともにパロの僕とならんまた我等に種をあたへよ然ばわれら生るをえて死るにいたらず田地も荒蕪にいたらじ
20 And Joseph bought all the land of the Egyptians, for Pharao; for the Egyptians sold their land to Pharao; for the famine prevailed against them, and the land became Pharao's.
是に於てヨセフ、エジプトの田地をことごとく購とりてパロに納る其はエジプト人饑饉にせまりて各人その田圃を賣たればなり是によりて地はパロの所有となれり
21 And he brought the people into bondage to him, for servants, from one extremity of Egypt to the other,
また民はエジプトのこの境の極よりかの境の極の者までヨセフこれを邑々にうつせり
22 except only the land of the priests; Joseph bought not this, for Pharao gave a portion in the way of gift to the priests; and they ate their portion which Pharao gave them; therefore they sold not their land.
但祭司の田地は購とらざりき祭司はパロより祿をたまはりをればパロの與る祿を食たるによりてその田地を賣ざればなり
23 And Joseph said to all the Egyptians, Behold, I have bought you and your land this day for Pharao; take seed for you, and sow the land.
茲にヨセフ民にいひけるは視よ我今日汝等となんぢらの田地をかひてパロに納る視よこの種子を汝らに與ふ地に播べし
24 And there shall be the fruits of it; and ye shall give the fifth part to Pharao, and the four [remaining] parts shall be for yourselves, for seed for the earth, and for food for you, and all that are in your houses.
しかして收穫の五分の一をパロに輸し四分をなんぢらに取て田圃の種としなんぢらの食としなんぢらの家族と子女の食とせよ
25 And they said, Thou hast saved us; we have found favour before our lord, and we will be servants to Pharao.
人衆いひけるは汝われらの生命を拯ひたまへりわれら主のまへに恩をえんことをねがふ我等パロの僕となるべしと
26 And Joseph appointed it to them for an ordinance until this day; to reserve a fifth part for Pharao, on the land of Egypt, except only the land of the priests, that was not Pharao's.
ヨセフ、エジプトの田地に法をたてその五分の一をパロにをさめしむその事今日にいたる唯祭司の田地のみパロの有とならざりき
27 And Israel dwelt in Egypt, in the land of Gesem, and they gained an inheritance upon it; and they increased and multiplied very greatly.
イスラエル、エジプトの國に於てゴセンの地にすみ彼處に產業を獲その數増て大に殖たり
28 And Jacob survived seventeen years in the land of Egypt; and Jacob's days of the years of his life were a hundred and forty-seven years.
ヤコブ、エジプトの國に十七年いきながらへたりヤコブの年齒の日は合て百四十七年なりき
29 and the days of Israel drew nigh for him to die: and he called his son Joseph, and said to him, If I have found favour before thee, put thy hand under my thigh, and thou shalt execute mercy and truth toward me, so as not to bury me in Egypt.
イスラエル死る日ちかよりければその子ヨセフをよびて之にいひけるは我もし汝のまへに恩を得るならば請ふなんぢの手をわが髀の下にいれ懇に眞實をもて我をあつかへ我をエジプトに葬るなかれ
30 But I will sleep with my fathers, and thou shalt carry me up out of Egypt, and bury me in their sepulchre. And he said, I will do according to thy word.
我は先祖等とともに偃んことをねがふ汝われをエジプトよ舁いだして先祖等の墓場にはうむれヨセフいふ我なんぢが言るごとくなすべしと
31 And he said, Swear to me; and he swore to him. And Israel did reverence, leaning on the top of his staff.
ヤコブまた我に誓へといひければすなはち誓へりイスラエル床の頭にて拜をなせり
