< Deuteronomy 7 >
1 When Jehovah thy God shall bring thee into the land whither thou goest to possess it, and shall cast out many nations from before thee, the Hittites, and the Girgashites, and the Amorites, and the Canaanites, and the Perizzites, and the Hivites, and the Jebusites, seven nations greater and mightier than thou,
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 when Jehovah thy God shall give them up before thee and thou shalt smite them, then shalt thou utterly destroy them: thou shalt make no covenant with them, nor shew mercy unto 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 And thou shalt make no marriages with them: thy daughter thou shalt not give unto his son, nor take his daughter for 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 turn away thy son from following me, and they will serve other gods, and the anger of Jehovah will be kindled against you, and he will destroy thee quickly.
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 deal with them: ye shall break down their altars, and shatter their statues, and hew down their Asherahs, and burn their graven images with fire.
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 a holy people art thou unto Jehovah thy God: Jehovah thy God hath chosen thee to be unto him a people for a possession, above all the peoples 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 Not because ye were more in number than all the peoples, hath Jehovah been attached to you and chosen you, for ye are the fewest of all the peoples;
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 Jehovah loved you, and because he would keep the oath which he had sworn unto your fathers, hath Jehovah brought you out with a powerful hand, and redeemed you out of the house of bondage, from the hand of Pharaoh 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 And thou shalt know that Jehovah thy God, he is God, the faithful God, who keepeth covenant and mercy to a thousand generations with them that love him and keep his commandments;
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 repayeth them that hate him [each] to his face, to cause them to perish: he delayeth not with him that hateth him, he will repay him to his 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 And thou shalt keep the commandment, and the statutes, and the ordinances, which I command thee this day, to do them.
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, if ye hearken to these ordinances, and keep and do them, that Jehovah thy God will keep with thee the covenant and the mercy which he swore unto thy 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 will bless the fruit of thy womb, and the fruit of thy ground, thy corn and thy new wine, and thine oil, the offspring of thy kine, and the increase of thy sheep, in the land which he swore unto thy fathers to give 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 above all the peoples; there shall not be male or female barren with thee, or with 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 Jehovah will take away from thee all sickness, and none of the evil infirmities of Egypt, which thou knowest, will he put upon thee; but he will lay them upon all them 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 consume all the peoples that Jehovah thy God will give up unto thee; thine eye shall not spare them, and thou shalt not serve their gods; for that would be a snare unto 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 If thou shouldest say in thy heart, These nations are greater than I; how can I dispossess them?
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 fear them not; remember well what Jehovah thy God did unto Pharaoh, and unto 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 trials which thine eyes saw, and the signs, and the wonders, and the powerful hand, and the stretched-out arm, whereby Jehovah thy God brought thee out: so will Jehovah thy God do unto all the peoples whom thou fearest.
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 Moreover, Jehovah thy God will send the hornet among them, until they that are left, and they that hide themselves from thee, are 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 afraid of them; for Jehovah thy God is in thy midst, a God great and terrible.
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 Jehovah thy God will cast out those nations from before thee by little and little; thou shalt not be able to make an end of them at once, lest the beasts of the field increase upon 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 But Jehovah thy God will give them up before thee, and will confound them with great consternation, until they are destroyed.
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 will give their kings into thy hand, and thou shalt put out their name from under the heavens; no man shall stand before thee, until thou hast 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 The graven images of their gods shall ye burn with fire; thou shalt not covet the silver and gold [that is] on them and take it unto thee, lest thou be ensnared therein; for it is an abomination to Jehovah 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 thy house, lest thou be a cursed thing like it: thou shalt utterly detest it, and thou shalt utterly abhor it; for it is a cursed 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
