< Genesis 47 >
1 And Joseph came and told Pharaoh and said, My father and my brethren, and their sheep and their cattle, and all that they have, are come out of the land of Canaan; and behold, they are in the land of Goshen.
茲にヨセフゆきてパロにつげていひけるはわが父と兄弟およびその羊と牛と諸の所有物カナンの地よりいたれり彼らはゴセンの地にをると
2 And he took from the whole number of his brethren, five men, and set them before Pharaoh.
その兄弟の中より五人をとりてこれをパロにまみえしむ
3 And Pharaoh said to his brethren, What is your occupation? And they said to Pharaoh, Thy servants are shepherds, both we and our fathers.
パロ、ヨセフの兄弟等にいひけるは汝らの業は何なるか彼等パロにいふ僕等は牧者なりわれらも先祖等もともにしかりと
4 And they said to Pharaoh, To sojourn in the land are we come; for there is no pasture for the sheep that thy servants have, for the famine is grievous in the land of Canaan; and now, we pray thee, let thy servants dwell in the land of Goshen.
かれら又パロにいひけるは此國に寓らんとて我等はきたる其はカナンの地に饑饉はげしくして僕等の群をやしなふ牧場なければなりされば請ふ僕等をしてゴセンの地にすましめたまへ
5 And Pharaoh spoke to Joseph, saying, Thy father and thy brethren are come to thee.
パロ、ヨセフにかたりていふ汝の父と兄弟汝の所にきたれり
6 The land of Egypt is before thee; in the best of the land settle thy father and thy brethren: let them dwell in the land of Goshen. And if thou knowest men of activity among them, then set them as overseers of cattle over what I have.
エジプトの地はなんぢの前にあり地の善き處に汝の父と兄弟をすましめよすなはちゴセンの地にかれらをすましめよ汝もし彼等の中に才能ある者あるをしらば其人々をしてわが家畜をつかさどらしめよ
7 And Joseph brought Jacob his father, and set him before Pharaoh. And Jacob blessed Pharaoh.
ヨセフまた父ヤコブを引ていりパロの前にたたしむヤコブ、パロを祝す
8 And Pharaoh said to Jacob, How many are the days of the years of thy life?
パロ、ヤコブにいふ汝の齡の日は幾何なるか
9 And Jacob said to Pharaoh, The days of the years of my sojourning are a hundred and thirty years. Few and evil have been the days of the years of my life, and they do not attain to the days of the years of the life of my fathers, in the days of their sojourning.
ヤコブ、パロにいひけるはわが旅路の年月は百三十年にいたる我が齡の日は僅少にして且惡かり未だわが先祖等の齡の日と旅路の日にはおよばざるなり
10 And Jacob blessed Pharaoh, and went out from Pharaoh.
ヤコブ、パロを祝しパロのまへよりいでさりぬ
11 And Joseph settled his father and his brethren, and gave them a possession in the land of Egypt, in the best of the land, in the land of Rameses, as Pharaoh had commanded.
ヨセフ、パロの命ぜしごとくその父と兄弟に居所を與へエジプトの國の中の善き地即ちラメセスの地をかれらにあたへて所有となさしむ
12 And Joseph maintained his father, and his brethren, and all his father's household, with bread, according to the number of the little ones.
ヨセフその父と兄弟と父の全家にその子の數にしたがひて食物をあたへて養へり
13 And there was no bread in all the land; for the famine was very grievous; and the land of Egypt and the land of Canaan were exhausted through the famine.
却説饑饉ははなはだはげしくして全國に食物なくエジプトの國とカナンの國饑饉のために弱れり
14 And Joseph gathered up all the money that was found in the land of Egypt, and in the land of Canaan, for the grain which they bought; and Joseph brought the money into Pharaoh's house.
ヨセフ穀物を賣あたへてエジプトの地とカナンの地にありし金をことごとく斂む而してヨセフその金をパロの家にもちきたる
15 And when money came to an end in the land of Egypt and in the land of Canaan, all the Egyptians came to Joseph, saying, Give us bread! for why should we die before thee? for [our] money is all gone.
エジプトの國とカナンの國に金つきたればエジプト人みなヨセフにいたりていふ我等に食物をあたへよ如何ぞなんぢの前に死べけんや金すでにたえたり
16 And Joseph said, Give your cattle, and I will give you for your cattle, if [your] money be all gone.
ヨセフいひけるは汝等の家畜をいだせ金もしたえたらば我なんぢらの家畜にかへて與ふべしと
17 And they brought their cattle to Joseph; and Joseph gave them bread for horses, and for flocks of sheep, and for herds of cattle, and for asses; and he fed them with bread for all their cattle that year.
かれら乃ちその家畜をヨセフにひききたりければヨセフその馬と羊の群と牛の群および驢馬にかへて食物をかれらにあたへそのすべての家畜のために其年のあひだ食物をあたへてこれをやしなふ
18 And that year ended; and they came to him the second year, and said to him, We will not hide [it] from my lord that since [our] money is come to an end, and the herds of cattle are in the possession of my lord, nothing is left before my lord but our bodies and our land.
かくてその年暮けるが明年にいたりて人衆またヨセフにきたりて之にいふ我等主に隱すところなしわれらの金は竭たりまたわれらの畜の群は主に皈す主のまへにいだすべき者は何ものこりをらず唯われらの身體と田地あるのみ
19 Why should we die before thine eyes, both we and our land? Buy us and our land for bread, and we and our land will be bondmen to Pharaoh; and give seed, that we may live, and not die, and that the land be not desolate.
われらいかんぞわれらの田地とともに汝の目のまへに死亡ぶべけんや我等とわれらの田地を食物に易て買とれ我等田地とともにパロの僕とならんまた我等に種をあたへよ然ばわれら生るをえて死るにいたらず田地も荒蕪にいたらじ
20 And Joseph bought all the soil of Egypt for Pharaoh; for the Egyptians sold every man his field, because the famine prevailed over them; and the land became Pharaoh's.
是に於てヨセフ、エジプトの田地をことごとく購とりてパロに納る其はエジプト人饑饉にせまりて各人その田圃を賣たればなり是によりて地はパロの所有となれり
21 And as for the people, he removed them into the cities, from [one] end of the borders of Egypt even to the [other] end of it.
また民はエジプトのこの境の極よりかの境の極の者までヨセフこれを邑々にうつせり
22 Only the land of the priests he did not buy; for the priests had an assigned portion from Pharaoh, and ate their assigned portion which Pharaoh had given them; so they did not sell their land.
但祭司の田地は購とらざりき祭司はパロより祿をたまはりをればパロの與る祿を食たるによりてその田地を賣ざればなり
23 And Joseph said to the people, Behold, I have bought you this day and your land for Pharaoh: lo, here is seed for you, and sow the land.
茲にヨセフ民にいひけるは視よ我今日汝等となんぢらの田地をかひてパロに納る視よこの種子を汝らに與ふ地に播べし
24 And it shall come to pass in the increase that ye shall give the fifth to Pharaoh, and the four parts shall be your own, for seed of the field, and for your food, and for them of your households, and for food for your little ones.
しかして收穫の五分の一をパロに輸し四分をなんぢらに取て田圃の種としなんぢらの食としなんぢらの家族と子女の食とせよ
25 And they said, Thou hast saved us alive. Let us find favour in the eyes of my lord, and we will be Pharaoh's bondmen.
人衆いひけるは汝われらの生命を拯ひたまへりわれら主のまへに恩をえんことをねがふ我等パロの僕となるべしと
26 And Joseph made it a law over the land of Egypt to this day, [that] the fifth should be for Pharaoh, except the land of the priests: theirs alone did not become Pharaoh's.
ヨセフ、エジプトの田地に法をたてその五分の一をパロにをさめしむその事今日にいたる唯祭司の田地のみパロの有とならざりき
27 And Israel dwelt in the land of Egypt, in the land of Goshen; and they had possessions in it, and were fruitful and multiplied exceedingly.
イスラエル、エジプトの國に於てゴセンの地にすみ彼處に產業を獲その數増て大に殖たり
28 And Jacob lived in the land of Egypt seventeen years; and the days of Jacob, the years of his life, were a hundred and forty-seven years.
ヤコブ、エジプトの國に十七年いきながらへたりヤコブの年齒の日は合て百四十七年なりき
29 And the days of Israel approached that he should die. And he called his son Joseph, and said to him, If now I have found favour in thine eyes, put, I pray thee, thy hand under my thigh, and deal kindly and truly with me: bury me not, I pray thee, in Egypt;
イスラエル死る日ちかよりければその子ヨセフをよびて之にいひけるは我もし汝のまへに恩を得るならば請ふなんぢの手をわが髀の下にいれ懇に眞實をもて我をあつかへ我をエジプトに葬るなかれ
30 but when I shall lie with my fathers, thou shalt carry me out of Egypt, and bury me in their sepulchre. And he said, I will do according to thy word.
我は先祖等とともに偃んことをねがふ汝われをエジプトよ舁いだして先祖等の墓場にはうむれヨセフいふ我なんぢが言るごとくなすべしと
31 And he said, Swear to me; and he swore to him. And Israel worshipped on the bed's head.
ヤコブまた我に誓へといひければすなはち誓へりイスラエル床の頭にて拜をなせり
