< Deuteronomy 25 >

1 If there be a controversy between men, and they resort to judgment, and they judge [their case]; then they shall justify the righteous, and condemn the wicked.
人と人との間に爭辯ありて來りて審判を求むる時は士師これを鞫きその義き者を義とし惡き者を惡とすべし
2 And it shall be if the wicked man have deserved to be beaten, that the judge shall cause him to lie down, and be beaten before his face, according to the measure of his wickedness with a certain number [of stripes].
その惡き者もし鞭つべき者ならば士師これを伏せその罪にしたがひて數のごとく自己の前にてこれを扑すべし
3 With forty [stripes] shall they beat him; they shall not exceed, lest, if they continue to beat him with many stripes above these, thy brother become despicable in thine eyes.
これを扑ことは四十を逾べからず若これを逾て是よりも多く扑ときは汝その汝の兄弟を賤め視にいたらん
4 Thou shalt not muzzle the ox when he treadeth out [the corn].
穀物を碾す牛に口籠をかく可らず
5 If brethren dwell together, and one of them die, and have no son, the wife of the dead shall not marry a stranger abroad: her husband's brother shall go in unto her, and take her to him as wife, and perform the duty of a husband's brother unto her.
兄弟ともに居んにその中の一人死て子を遺さざる時はその死たる者の妻いでて他人に嫁ぐべからず其夫の兄弟これの所に入りこれを娶りて妻となし斯してその夫の兄弟たる道をこれに盡し
6 And it shall be, that the firstborn that she beareth shall stand in the name of his brother who is dead, that his name be not blotted out from Israel.
而してその婦の生ところの初子をもてその死たる兄弟の後を嗣しめその名をイスラエルの中に絶ざらしむべし
7 But if the man like not to take his brother's wife, his brother's wife shall go up to the gate unto the elders, and say, My husband's brother refuseth to raise up unto his brother a name in Israel: he will not perform for me the duty of a husband's brother.
然どその人もしその兄弟の妻をめとることを肯ぜずばその兄弟の妻門にいたりて長老等に言べし吾夫の兄弟はその兄弟の名をイスラエルの中に興ることを肯ぜず吾夫の兄弟たる道を盡すことをせずと
8 Then the elders of his city shall call him and speak unto him; and if he stand to it and say, I like not to take her;
然る時はその邑の長老等かれを呼よせて諭すべし然るも彼堅く執て我はこれを娶ることを好まずと言ば
9 then shall his brother's wife come near to him before the eyes of the elders, and draw his sandal from his foot, and spit in his face, and shall answer and say, So shall it be done unto the man that will not build up his brother's house.
その兄弟の妻長老等の前にて彼の側にいたりこれが鞋をその足より脱せその面に唾して答て言べしその兄弟の家を興ることを肯ぜざる者には斯のごとくすべきなりと
10 And his name shall be called in Israel, The house of him that hath his shoe drawn off.
またその人の名は鞋を脱たる者の家とイスラエルの中に稱へらるべし
11 When men fight together one with another, and the wife of the one come near to rescue her husband out of the hand of him that smiteth him, and stretch out her hand, and seize him by his secret parts,
人二人あひ爭そふ時に一人の者の妻その夫を撃つ者の手より夫を救はんとて進みより手を伸てその人の陰所を執ふるあらば
12 thou shalt cut off her hand; thine eye shall not spare.
汝その婦の手を切おとすべし之を憫れみ視るべからず
13 Thou shalt not have in thy bag divers weights, a great and a small.
汝の嚢の中に一箇は大く一箇は小き二種の權衡石をいれおくべからず
14 Thou shalt not have in thy house divers ephahs, a great and a small.
汝の家に一箇は大く一箇は小き二種の升斗をおくべからず
15 A perfect and just weight shalt thou have; a perfect and just ephah shalt thou have; that thy days may be prolonged in the land that Jehovah thy God giveth thee.
唯十分なる公正き權衡を有べくまた十分なる公正き升斗を有べし然せば汝の神ヱホバの汝にたまふ地に汝の日永からん
16 For every one that doeth such things, every one that doeth unrighteousness, is an abomination to Jehovah thy God.
凡て斯る事をなす者凡て正しからざる事をなす者は汝の神ヱホバこれを憎みたまふなり
17 Remember what Amalek did unto thee on the way, when ye came forth out of Egypt;
汝らがエジプトより出きたりし時その路においてアマレクが汝に爲たりし事を記憶よ
18 how he met thee on the way, and smote the hindmost of thee, all the feeble that lagged behind thee, when thou wast faint and weary, and he feared not God.
即ち彼らは汝を途に迎へ汝の疲れ倦たるに乗じて汝の後なる弱き者等を攻撃り斯かれらは神を畏れざりき
19 And it shall be, when Jehovah thy God shall have given thee rest from all thine enemies round about, in the land that Jehovah thy God giveth thee for an inheritance to possess it, that thou shalt blot out the remembrance of Amalek from under the heavens; thou shalt not forget it.
然ば汝の神ヱホバの汝に與へて產業となさしめたまふ地において汝の神ヱホバ汝にその周圍の敵を盡く攻ふせて安泰ならしめたまふに至らば汝アマレクの名を天が下より塗抹て之をおぼゆる者なからしむべし
