< Exodus 3 >
1 And Moses was feeding the flock of Jothor his father-in-law, the priest of Madiam; and he brought the sheep near to the wilderness, and came to the mount of Choreb.
モーセその妻の父なるミデアンの祭司ヱテロの群を牧ひをりしがその群を曠野の奧にみちびきて神の山ホレブに至るに
2 And an angel of the Lord appeared to him in flaming fire out of the bush, and he sees that the bush burns with fire, —but the bush was not consumed.
ヱホバの使者棘の裏の火燄の中にて彼にあらはる彼見るに棘火に燃れどもその棘燬ず
3 And Moses said, I will go near and see this great sight, why the bush is not consumed.
モーセいひけるは我ゆきてこの大なる觀を見 何故に棘の燃たえざるかを見ん
4 And when the Lord saw that he drew near to see, the Lord called him out of the bush, saying, Moses, Moses; and he said, What is it?
ヱホバ彼がきたり觀んとするを見たまふ即ち神棘の中よりモーセよモーセよと彼をよびたまひければ我ここにありといふに
5 And he said, Draw not near hither: loose your sandals from off your feet, for the place whereon you stand is holy ground.
神いひたまひけるは此に近よるなかれ汝の足より履を脱ぐべし汝が立つ處は聖き地なればなり
6 And he said, I am the God of your father, the God of Abraam, and the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob; and Moses turned away his face, for he was afraid to gaze at God.
又いひたまひけるは我はなんぢの父の神アブラハムの神イサクの神ヤコブの神なりとモーセ神を見ることを畏れてその面を蔽せり
7 And the Lord said to Moses, I have surely seen the affliction of my people that is in Egypt, and I have heard their cry [caused] by their taskmasters; for I know their affliction.
ヱホバ言たまひけるは我まことにエジプトにをるわが民の苦患を觀また彼等がその驅使者の故をもて號ぶところの聲を聞り我かれらの憂苦を知るなり
8 And I have come down to deliver them out of the hand of the Egyptians, and to bring them out of that land, and to bring them into a good and wide land, into a land flowing with milk and honey, into the place of the Chananites, and the Chettites, and Amorites, and Pherezites, and Gergesites, and Evites, and Jebusites.
われ降りてかれらをエジプト人の手より救ひいだし之を彼地より導きのぼりて善き廣き地乳と蜜との流るる地すなはちカナン人ヘテ人アモリ人ベリジ人ヒビ人ヱブス人のをる處に至らしめんとす
9 And now, behold, the cry of the children of Israel is come to me, and I have seen the affliction with which the Egyptians afflict them.
今イスラエルの子孫の號呼われに達る我またエジプト人が彼らを苦むるその暴虐を見たり
10 And now come, I will send you to Pharao king of Egypt, and you shall bring out my people the children of Israel from the land of Egypt.
然ば來れ我なんぢをパロにつかはし汝をしてわが民イスラエルの子孫をエジプトより導きいださしめん
11 And Moses said to God, Who am I, that I should go to Pharao king of Egypt, and that I should bring out the children of Israel from the land of Egypt?
モーセ神にいひけるは我は如何なる者ぞや我豈パロの許に往きイスラエルの子孫をエジプトより導きいだすべき者ならんや
12 And God spoke to Moses, saying, I will be with you, and this shall be the sign to you that I shall send you forth, —when you bring out my people out of Egypt, then you shall serve God in this mountain.
神いひたまひけるは我かならず汝とともにあるべし是はわが汝をつかはせる證據なり汝民をエジプトより導きいだしたる時汝等この山にて神に事へん
13 And Moses said to God, Behold, I shall go forth to the children of Israel, and shall say to them, The God of our fathers has sent me to you; and they will ask me, What is his name? What shall I say to them?
モーセ神にいひけるは我イスラエルの子孫の所にゆきて汝らの先祖等の神我を汝らに遣はしたまふと言んに彼等もし其名は何と我に言ば何とかれらに言べきや
14 And God spoke to Moses, saying, I am THE BEING; and he said, Thus shall you say to the children of Israel, THE BEING has sent me to you.
神モーセにいひたまひけるは我は有て在る者なり又いひたまひけるは汝かくイスラエルの子孫にいふべし我有といふ者我を汝らに遣したまふと
15 And God said again to Moses, Thus shall you say to the sons of Israel, The Lord God of our fathers, the God of Abraam, and God of Isaac, and God of Jacob, has sent me to you: this is my name for ever, and my memorial to generations of generations.
神またモーセにいひたまひけるは汝かくイスラエルの子孫にいふべし汝らの先祖等の神アブラハムの神イサクの神ヤコブの神ヱホバわれを汝らにつかはしたまふと是は永遠にわが名となり世々にわが誌となるべし
16 Go then and gather the elders of the children of Israel, and you shall say to them, The Lord God of our fathers has appeared to me, the God of Abraam, and God of Isaac, and God of Jacob, saying, I have surely looked upon you, and upon all the things which have happened to you in Egypt.
汝往てイスラエルの長老等をあつめて之にいふべし汝らの先祖等の神アブラハム、イサク、ヤコブの神ヱホバ我にあらはれて言たまひけらく我誠になんぢらを眷み汝らがエジプトにて蒙るところの事を見たり
17 And he said, I will bring you up out of the affliction of the Egyptians to the land of the Chananites and the Chettites, and Amorites and Pherezites, and Gergesites, and Evites, and Jebusites, to a land flowing with milk and honey.
我すなはち言り我汝らをエジプトの苦患の中より導き出してカナン人ヘテ人アモリ人ペリジ人ヒビ人エブス人の地すなはち乳と蜜の流るる地にのぼり至らしめんと
18 And they shall listen to your voice, and you and the elders of Israel shall go in to Pharao king of Egypt, and you shall say to him, The God of the Hebrews has called us; we will go then a journey of three days into the wilderness, that we may sacrifice to our God.
彼等なんぢの言に聽したがふべし汝とイスラエルの長老等エジプトの王の許にいたりて之に言へヘブル人の神ヱホバ我らに臨めり然ば請ふわれらをして三日程ほど曠野に入しめわれらの神ヱホバに犠牲をささぐることを得せしめよと
19 But I know that Pharao king of Egypt will not let you go, save with a mighty hand;
我しるエジプトの王は假令能力ある手をくはふるも汝等の往をゆるさざるべし
20 and I will stretch out my hand, and strike the Egyptians with all my wonders, which I shall work amongst them, and after that he will send you forth.
我すなはちわが手を舒ベエジプトの中に諸の奇跡を行ひてエジプトを撃ん其後かれ汝等を去しむべし
21 And I will give this people favour in the sight of the Egyptians, and whenever you shall escape, you shall not depart empty.
我エジプト人をして此民をめぐましめん汝ら去る時手を空うして去るべからず
22 But [every] woman shall ask of her neighbour and fellow lodger, articles of gold and silver, and apparel; and you shall put them upon your sons and upon your daughters, —and spoil you the Egyptians.
婦女皆その隣人とおのれの家に寓る者とに金の飾品銀の飾品および衣服を乞べし而して汝らこれを汝らの子女に穿戴せよ汝等かくエジプト人の物を取べし
