< Genesis 26 >
1 And there was a famine in the land, besides the former famine which had been in the days of Abraham. And Isaac went to Abimelech the king of the Philistines, to Gerar.
アブラハムの時にありし最初の饑饉の外に又其國に饑饉ありければイサク、ゲラルに往てペリシテ人の王アビメレクの許にいたれり
2 And Jehovah appeared to him and said, Go not down to Egypt: dwell in the land that I shall tell thee of.
時にヱホバ彼にあらはれて言たまひけるはエジプトに下るなかれ吾汝に示すところの地にをれ
3 Sojourn in this land; and I will be with thee and bless thee; for unto thee, and unto thy seed, I will give all these countries; and I will perform the oath which I swore unto Abraham thy father.
汝此地にとどまれ我汝と共にありて汝を祝まん我是等の國を盡く汝および汝の子孫に與へ汝の父アブラハムに誓ひたる誓言を行ふべし
4 And I will multiply thy seed as the stars of heaven, and unto thy seed will I give all these countries; and in thy seed shall all the nations of the earth bless themselves —
われ汝の子孫を増て天の星のごとくなし汝の子孫に凡て是等の國を與へん汝の子孫によりて天下の國民皆福祉を獲べし
5 because that Abraham hearkened to my voice, and kept my charge, my commandments, my statutes, and my laws.
是はアブラハムわが言に順ひわが職守とわが誡命とわが憲法とわが律法を守りしに因てなり
6 And Isaac dwelt at Gerar.
イサク乃ちゲラルに居しが
7 And the men of the place asked about his wife. And he said, She is my sister; for he feared to say, my wife, [saying to himself, ] Lest the men of the place slay me on account of Rebecca — because she was fair in countenance.
處の人其妻の事をとへば我妹なりと言ふリベカは觀に美麗かりければ其處の人リベカの故をもて我を殺さんと謂て彼をわが妻と言をおそれたるなり
8 And it came to pass when he had been there some time, that Abimelech the king of the Philistines looked out of the window, and saw, and behold, Isaac was dallying with Rebecca his wife.
イサク久しく彼處にをりし後一日ペリシテ人の王アビメレク\牖より望みてイサクが其妻リベカと嬉戲るを見たり
9 Then Abimelech called Isaac, and said, Behold, she is certainly thy wife; and how saidst thou, She is my sister? and Isaac said to him, Because I said, Lest I die on account of her.
是に於てアビメレク、イサクを召て言けるは彼は必ず汝の妻なり汝なんぞ吾妹といひしやイサク彼に言けるは恐くは我彼のために死るならんと思たればなり
10 And Abimelech said, What is this thou hast done to us? But a little and one of the people might have lain with thy wife, and thou wouldest have brought a trespass on us.
アビメレクいひけるは汝なんぞ此事を我等になすや民の一人もし輕々しく汝の妻と寢ることあらんその時は汝罪を我等に蒙らしめんと
11 And Abimelech charged all the people, saying, He that touches this man or his wife shall certainly be put to death.
アビメレク乃ちすべて民に皆命じて此人と其妻にさはるものは必ず死すべしと言り
12 And Isaac sowed in that land, and received in the same year a hundredfold; and Jehovah blessed him.
イサク彼地に種播て其年に百倍を獲たりヱホバ彼を祝みたまふ
13 And the man became great, and he became continually greater, until he was very great.
其人大になりゆきて進て盛になり遂に甚だ大なる者となれり
14 And he had possessions of flocks, and possessions of herds, and a great number of servants; and the Philistines envied him.
即ち羊と牛と僕從を多く有しかばペリシテ人彼を嫉みたり
15 And all the wells that his father's servants had dug in the days of Abraham his father, the Philistines stopped them and filled them with earth.
其父アブラハムの世に其父の僕從が掘たる諸の井はペリシテ人之をふさぎて土を之にみてたり
16 And Abimelech said to Isaac, Go from us; for thou art become much mightier than we.
茲にアビメレク、イサクに言けるは汝は大に我等よりも強大ければ我等をはなれて去れと
17 And Isaac departed thence, and pitched his camp in the valley of Gerar, and dwelt there.
イサク乃ち彼處をさりてゲラルの谷に天幕を張て其處に住り
18 And Isaac dug again the wells of water that they had dug in the days of Abraham his father, and that the Philistines had stopped after the death of Abraham; and he called their names after the names by which his father had called them.
其父アブラハムの世に掘たる水井をイサク茲に復び鑿り其はアブラハムの死たる後ペリシテ人之を塞ぎたればなり斯してイサク其父が之に名けたる名をもて其名となせり
19 And Isaac's servants dug in the valley, and found there a well of springing water.
イサクの僕谷に掘て其處に泉の湧出る井を得たり
20 But the shepherds of Gerar strove with Isaac's shepherds, saying, The water is ours. And he called the name of the well Esek, because they had quarrelled with him.
ゲラルの牧者此水は我儕の所屬なりといひてイサクの僕と爭ひければイサク其井の名をエセク(競爭)と名けたり彼等が己と之を競爭たるによりてなり
21 And they dug another well, and they strove for that also; and he called the name of it Sitnah.
是に於て又他の井を鑿しが彼等是をも爭ひければ其名をシテナ(敵)となづけたり
22 And he removed thence and dug another well; and they did not strive for that. And he called the name of it Rehoboth, and said, For now Jehovah has made room for us, and we shall be fruitful in the land.
イサク乃ち彼處より遷りて他の井を鑿けるが彼等之をあらそはざりければ其名をレホボテ(廣塲)と名けて言けるは今ヱホバ我等の處所を廣くしたまへり我等此地を繁衍ん
23 And he went up thence to Beer-sheba.
斯て彼其處よりベエルシバにのぼりしが
24 And Jehovah appeared to him the same night, and said, I am the God of Abraham thy father: fear not, for I am with thee, and will bless thee, and multiply thy seed for my servant Abraham's sake.
其夜ヱホバ彼にあらはれて言たまひけるは我は汝の父アブラハムの神なり懼るるなかれ我汝と偕にありて汝を祝み我僕アブラハムのために汝の子孫を増んと
25 And he built an altar there, and called upon the name of Jehovah. And he pitched his tent there; and there Isaac's servants dug a well.
是に於て彼處に壇を築きてヱホバの名を龥び天幕を彼處に張り彼處にてイサクの僕井を鑿り
26 And Abimelech, and Ahuzzath his friend, and Phichol the captain of his host, went to him from Gerar.
茲にアビメレク其友アホザテ及び其軍勢の長ピコルと共にゲラルよりイサクの許に來りければ
27 And Isaac said to them, Why are ye come to me, seeing ye hate me, and have driven me away from you?
イサク彼等に言ふ汝等は我を惡み我をして汝等をはなれて去らしめたるなるに何ぞ我許に來るや
28 And they said, We saw certainly that Jehovah is with thee; and we said, Let there be then an oath between us — between us and thee, and let us make a covenant with thee,
彼等いひけるは我等確然にヱホバが汝と偕にあるを見たれば我等の間即ち我等と汝の間に誓詞を立て汝と契約を結ばんと謂へり
29 that thou wilt do us no wrong, as we have not touched thee, and as we have done to thee nothing but good, and have let thee go in peace; thou art now blessed of Jehovah.
汝我等に惡事をなすなかれ其は我等は汝を害せず只善事のみを汝になし且汝を安然に去しめたればなり汝はヱホバの祝みたまふ者なり
30 And he made them a feast, and they ate and drank.
イサク乃ち彼等のために酒宴を設けたれば彼等食ひ且飮り
31 And they rose early in the morning, and swore one to another; and Isaac sent them away, and they departed from him in peace.
斯て朝夙に起て互に相誓へり而してイサク彼等を去しめたれば彼等イサクをはなれて安然にかへりぬ
32 And it came to pass the same day, that Isaac's servants came, and told him concerning the well that they had dug, and said to him, We have found water.
其日イサクの僕來りて其ほりたる井につきて之に告て我等水を得たりといへり
33 And he called it Shebah; therefore the name of the city is Beer-sheba to this day.
即ち之をシバとなづく此故に其邑の名は今日までベエルシバ(誓詞の井)といふ
34 And Esau was forty years old, when he took as wives Judith the daughter of Beeri the Hittite, and Basmath the daughter of Elon the Hittite.
エサウ四十歳の時ヘテ人の女ユデテとヘテ人エロンの女バスマテを妻に娶り
35 And they were a grief of mind to Isaac and to Rebecca.
彼等はイサクとリベカの心の愁煩となれり
