< Deuteronomy 2 >

1 And we turned, and took our journey into the wilderness by the way of the Red sea, as Jehovah had said unto me; and we went round mount Seir many days.
斯て我らは身を轉らしヱホバの我に命じたまへる如く紅海の途より曠野に進みいりて日久しくセイル山を行めぐりたりしが
2 And Jehovah spoke to me, saying,
ヱホバつひに我に告て言たまはく
3 Ye have gone round this mountain long enough: turn you northward.
汝等はこの山を行めぐること旣に久し今よりは北に轉りて進め
4 And command the people, saying, Ye are to pass through the border of your brethren the children of Esau, who dwell in Seir; and they will be afraid of you; and ye shall be very guarded:
汝また民に命じて言へ汝らはセイルに住るヱサウの子孫なる汝らの兄弟の境界を通らんとす彼らはなんぢらを懼れん汝ら深く自ら謹むべし
5 attack them not; for I will not give you of their land, no, not so much as a foot-breadth; for I have given mount Seir as a possession unto Esau.
彼らを攻る勿れ彼らの地は足の跖に踐ほどをも汝らに與へじ其は我セイル山をエサウにあたへて產業となさしめたればなり
6 Ye shall buy of them food for money, that ye may eat; and water shall ye also buy of them for money, that ye may drink;
汝ら金をもて彼らより食物を買て食ひまた金をもて彼らより水をもとめて飮め
7 for Jehovah thy God hath blessed thee in all the work of thy hand. He hath known thy walking through this great wilderness: these forty years hath Jehovah thy God been with thee; thou hast lacked nothing.
汝の神ヱホバ汝が手に作ところの諸の事において汝をめぐみ汝がこの大なる曠野を通るを看そなはしたまへり汝の神ヱホバこの四十年のあひだ汝とともに在したれば汝は乏しき所あらざりしなり
8 And we passed by from our brethren the children of Esau, who dwelt in Seir, by the plain, by Elath, and by Ezion-geber, and we turned and passed by the way of the wilderness of Moab.
我らつひにセイル山に住るエサウの子孫なる我らの兄弟を離れてアラバの路を通りエラテとエジオンゲベルを經て/轉りてモアブの曠野の路に進みいれり
9 And Jehovah said to me, Distress not the Moabites, neither engage with them in battle; for I will not give thee of their land a possession; for unto the children of Lot have I given Ar as a possession.
時にヱホバわれに言たまひけるはモアブ人をなやますなかれまた之を攻て戰ふなかれ彼らの地をば我なんぢらの產業に與へじ其は我ロトの子孫にアルをあたへて產業となさしめたればなりと
10 (The Emim dwelt therein in times past, a people great, and many, and tall as the Anakim.
(昔エミ人ここに住り是民は大にして數多くアナク人のごとくに身長高かり
11 They also are reckoned as giants like the Anakim; but the Moabites call them Emim.
アナク人とおなじくレバイムと呼なされたりしがモアブ人はこれをエミ人とよべり
12 And in Seir dwelt the Horites in times past; and the children of Esau dispossessed them, and destroyed them from before them, and dwelt in their stead; as Israel did to the land of their possession, which Jehovah gave to them.)
ホリ人もまた昔セイルに住をりしがエサウの子孫これを逐滅し之にかはりて其處に住りイスラエルがヱホバに賜はりしその產業の地になせるが如し)
13 Now rise up, and pass over the torrent Zered. And we passed over the torrent Zered.
茲に汝等今たちあがりゼレデ川を渉れとありければ我らすなはちゼレデ川を渉れり
14 Now the days in which we came from Kadesh-barnea, until we had come over the torrent Zered, were thirty-eight years; until the whole generation of the men of war was consumed from the midst of the camp, as Jehovah had sworn unto them.
カデシバルネアを出てよりゼレデ川を渉るまでの間の日は三十八年にしてその代の軍人はみな亡果て營中にあらずなりぬヱホバのかれらに誓ひたまひし如し
15 Moreover the hand of Jehovah was against them to destroy them from the midst of the camp, until they were consumed.
誠にヱホバ手をもて之を攻めこれを營中より滅ぼしたまひければ終にみな亡はてたり
16 And it came to pass when all the men of war were consumed, having died off from among the people,
かく軍人みなその民の中より死亡たる時にあたりて
17 that Jehovah spoke to me, saying,
ヱホバ我に告て言たまひけらく
18 Thou art to pass this day over the border of Moab, [which is] Ar,
汝は今日モアブの境なるアルを通らんとす
19 and come near over against the children of Ammon; thou shalt not distress them nor attack them; for I will not give thee of the land of the children of Ammon a possession; for unto the children of Lot have I given it as a possession.
汝アンモンの子孫に近く時に之をなやます勿れ之を攻るなかれアンモンの子孫の地は我これを汝らの產業に與へじ其は我これをロトの子孫にあたへて產業となさしめたればなり
20 (That also is reckoned a land of giants: giants dwelt therein in time past, and the Ammonites call them Zamzummim;
(是もまたレバイムの國とよびなされたり昔レバイムここに住ゐたればなりアンモン人はかれらをザムズミ人とよべり
21 a people great, and many, and tall as the Anakim; and Jehovah destroyed them before them, and they dispossessed them, and dwelt in their stead;
この民は大にして數多くアナク人のごとくに身長たかかりしがヱホバ、アンモン人の前に之を滅ぼしたまひたればアンモン人これを逐はらひて之にかはりて住り
22 as he did to the children of Esau, who dwelt in Seir, from before whom he destroyed the Horites; and they dispossessed them, and dwelt in their stead, even to this day.
その事はセイルに住るエサウの子孫の前にホリ人を滅ぼしたまひしが如し彼らはホリ人を逐はらひ之にかはりて今日まで其處に住をるなり
23 And the Avvites who dwelt in the hamlets as far as Gazah — the Caphtorim, who came out of Caphtor, destroyed them, and dwelt in their stead.)
カフトルより出たるカフトリ人はまたかの村々に住ひてガザにまで到るととろのアビ人を滅ぼし之にかはりて其處に居る)
24 Rise up, take your journey, and pass over the river Arnon. Behold, I have given into thy hand Sihon the king of Heshbon, the Amorite, and his land: begin, take possession, and engage with him in battle.
汝ら起あがり進みてアルノン河を渉れ我ヘシボンの王アモリ人シホンとこれが國を汝らの手に付す進んで之を獲よ彼を攻て戰へ
25 This day will I begin to put the dread of thee and the fear of thee upon the peoples under the whole heaven; who will hear report of thee, and will tremble, and quake because of thee.
今日我一天下の國人に汝を畏ぢ汝を懼れしめん彼らは汝の名聲を聞て慄ひ汝の爲に心を苦めんと
26 And I sent messengers out of the wilderness of Kedemoth unto Sihon the king of Heshbon with words of peace, saying,
茲に我ケデモテの曠野よりヘシボンの王シホンに使者をおくり和好の言を述しめたり云く
27 Let me pass through thy land: by the highway alone will I go; I will neither turn to the right hand nor to the left.
我に汝の國を通らしめよ我は大路を通りて行ん右にも左にも轉らじ
28 Thou shalt sell me food for money that I may eat; and thou shalt give me water for money that I may drink; I will only pass through on my feet,
汝金をとりて食物を我に賣て食はせ金をとりて水を我にあたへて飮せよ我はただ徒歩にて通らんのみ
29 — as the children of Esau who dwell in Seir, and the Moabites who dwell in Ar, did to me, — until I shall pass over the Jordan into the land which Jehovah our God giveth us.
セイルに住るエサウの子孫とアルに住るモアブ人とが我になしたる如くせよ然せば我はヨルダンを濟りて我らの神ヱホバの我らに賜ひし地にいたらんと
30 But Sihon the king of Heshbon would not let us pass by him; for Jehovah thy God hardened his spirit, and made his heart obdurate, that he might give him into thy hand, as it is this day.
然るにヘシボンの王シホンは我らの通ることを容さざりき是は汝の神ヱホバ彼を汝の手に付さんとてその氣を頑梗しその心を剛愎にしたまひたればなり今日見るが如し
31 And Jehovah said to me, Behold, I begin to give Sihon and his land before thee: begin, take possession, that thou mayest possess his land.
時にヱホバ我に言たまひけるは視よ我いまシホンとこれが地を汝に與へんとす進んでその地を獲て汝の產業とせよと
32 And Sihon came out against us for battle, he and all his people, to Jahaz.
茲にシホンその民をことごとく率ゐて出きたりヤハヅに於て戰ひけるが
33 But Jehovah our God gave him up before us; and we smote him, and his sons, and his whole people.
我らの神ヱホバ彼をわれらに付したまひたれば我らかれとその子等とその一切の民を撃殺せり
34 And we took all his cities at that time, and utterly destroyed every city, men, and women, and little ones: we let none escape.
その時に我らは彼の邑々を盡く取りその一切の邑の男女および兒童を滅して一人をも遺さざりき
35 Only the cattle we took as booty for ourselves, and the spoil of the cities which we took.
只その家畜および邑々より取たる掠取物は我らこれを獲て自分の物となせり
36 From Aroer, which is on the bank of the river Arnon, and the city that is in the ravine even to Gilead, there was not one city too strong for us: Jehovah our God delivered all before us.
アルノンの河邊のアロエルおよび河の傍なる邑よりギレアデにいたるまで我らの攻取がたき邑とては一もあらざりき我らの神ヱホバこれを盡くわれらに付したまへり
37 Only thou didst not approach the land of the children of Ammon, the whole border of the river Jabbok, nor the cities of the mountain, nor to whatsoever Jehovah our God had forbidden us.
第アンモンの子孫の地ヤボク川の全岸山地の邑々など凡てわれらの神ヱホバが我らの往を禁じたまへる處には汝いたらざりき
