Joshua 22
1 Then Joshua called the Reubenites, and the Gadites, and the half tribe of Manasseh,
茲にヨシユア、ルベン人ガド人およびマナセの支派の半を召て
2 and said unto them, Ye have kept all that Moses the servant of Jehovah commanded you, and have hearkened to my voice in all that I commanded you.
これに言けるは汝らはヱホバの僕モーセが汝らに命ぜし所をことごとく守り又わが汝らに命ぜし一切の事において我言に聽したがへり
3 Ye have not left your brethren these many days unto this day, and ye have kept the charge of the commandment of Jehovah your God.
汝らは今日まで日ひさしく汝らの兄弟を離れずして汝らの神ヱホバの命令の言を守り來り
4 And now Jehovah your God hath given rest to your brethren, as he said unto them; and now return, and get you unto your tents, unto the land of your possession, which Moses the servant of Jehovah gave you beyond the Jordan.
今は已に汝らの神ヱホバなんぢらの兄弟に向に宣まひし如く安息を賜ふに至れり然ば汝ら身を轉らしヱホバの僕モーセが汝らに與へしヨルダンの彼方なる汝等の產業の地に歸りて自己の天幕にゆけ
5 Only, take great heed to do the commandment and the law, which Moses the servant of Jehovah commanded you, to love Jehovah your God, and to walk in all his ways, and to keep his commandments, and to cleave unto him, and to serve him with all your heart and with all your soul.
只ヱホバの僕モーセが汝らに命じおきし誡命と律法とを善く謹しみて行ひ汝らの神ヱホバを愛しその一切の途に歩みその命令を守りて之に附したがひ心を盡し精神を盡して之に事ふべしと
6 And Joshua blessed them, and sent them away; and they went to their tents.
かくてヨシユア彼らを祝して去しめければ彼らはその天幕に往り
7 And to half the tribe of Manasseh Moses had given [inheritance] in Bashan, and to the other half thereof had Joshua given among their brethren on this side the Jordan westward. And when Joshua sent them away to their tents, he blessed them also,
マナセの支派の半にはモーセ、バシヤンにて產業を與へおけりその他の半にはヨシユア、ヨルダンの此旁西の方にてその兄弟等の中に產業を與ふヨシユア彼らをその天幕に歸し遣るに當りて之を祝し
8 and spoke to them, saying, Return unto your tents with much wealth and with very much cattle, with silver, and with gold, and with copper, and with iron, and with clothing, in very great quantity; divide the spoil of your enemies with your brethren.
之に告て言けるは汝ら衆多の貨財夥多しき家畜金銀銅鐵および夥多しき衣服をもちて汝らの天幕に歸り汝らの敵より獲たるその物を汝らの兄弟の中に分つべしと
9 And the children of Reuben and the children of Gad and the half tribe of Manasseh returned, and departed from the children of Israel out of Shiloh, which is in the land of Canaan, to go to the country of Gilead, into the land of their possession, of which they had become possessed, according to the word of Jehovah through Moses.
爰にルベンの子孫ガドの子孫およびマナセの支派の半はヱホバのモーセによりて命じ給ひし所に循ひて己の所有の地すなはち已に獲たるギレアデの地に往んとてカナンの地のシロよりしてイスラエルの子孫に別れて歸りけるが
10 And they came to the districts of the Jordan that are in the land of Canaan; and the children of Reuben and the children of Gad and the half tribe of Manasseh built there an altar by the Jordan, an altar of grand appearance.
ルベンの子孫ガドの子孫およびマナセの支派の半カナンの地のヨルダンの岸邊にいたるにおよびて彼處にてヨルダンの傍に一の壇を築けりその壇は大にして遥に見えわたる
11 And the children of Israel heard say, Behold, the children of Reuben and the children of Gad and the half tribe of Manasseh have built an altar over against the land of Canaan, in the districts of the Jordan, separately from the children of Israel.
イスラエルの子孫はルベンの子孫ガドの子孫およびマナセの支派の半カナンの地の前の部にてヨルダンの岸邊イスラエルの子孫に屬する方にて一の壇を築けりと言を聞り
12 And when the children of Israel heard [of it], the whole assembly of the children of Israel gathered together at Shiloh, to go up against them to war.
イスラエルの子孫これを聞と斉しくイスラエルの子孫の會衆ことごとくシロに集まりて彼らの所に攻のぼらんとす
13 And the children of Israel sent to the children of Reuben, and to the children of Gad, and to the half tribe of Manasseh, into the land of Gilead, Phinehas the son of Eleazar the priest,
イスラエルの子孫すなはち祭司エレアザルの子ピハネスをギレアデの地に遣はしてルベンの子孫ガドの子孫およびマナセの支派の半の所に至らしめ
14 and with him ten princes, of each father's house a prince, out of all the tribes of Israel; and each of them was head of a father's house, of the thousands of Israel.
イスラエルの各々の支派の中より父祖の家の牧伯一人づつを擧て合せて十人の牧伯を之に伴なはしむ是みなイスラエルの家族の中にて父祖の家の長たる者なりき
15 And they came to the children of Reuben, and to the children of Gad, and to the half tribe of Manasseh, to the land of Gilead, and spoke with them, saying,
彼らギレアデの地に往きルベンの子孫ガドの子孫およびマナセの支派の半にいたりて之に語りて言けらく
16 Thus saith the whole assembly of Jehovah: What wickedness is this which ye have committed against the God of Israel, to turn away this day from following Jehovah, in that ye have built yourselves an altar, rebelling this day against Jehovah?
ヱホバの全會衆かく言ふ汝らイスラエルの神にむかひて愆を犯し今日すでに翻へりてヱホバに從がはざらんとし即ち己のために一の壇を築きて今日ヱホバに叛かんとするは何事ぞや
17 Is the iniquity of Peor too little for us? from which we are not cleansed until this day, although there was a plague in the assembly of Jehovah.
ベオルの罪われらに足ざらんや之がためにヱホバの會衆に災禍くだりたりしかども我ら今日までも尚身を潔めてその罪を棄ざるなり
18 And ye turn away this day from following Jehovah; and it will be, that since ye rebel this day against Jehovah, to-morrow he will be wroth with the whole assembly of Israel.
然るに汝らは今日ひるがへりてヱホバに從がはざらんとするや汝ら今日ヱホバに叛けば明日はヱホバ、イスラエルの全會衆を怒りたまふべし
19 Notwithstanding, if the land of your possession is unclean, come over into the land of the possession of Jehovah, where Jehovah's tabernacle dwelleth, and take possession amongst us; but rebel not against Jehovah, and rebel not against us, in building for yourselves an altar besides the altar of Jehovah our God.
然ながら汝らの所有の地もし潔からずばヱホバの幕屋のたてるヱホバの產業の地に濟り來て我らの中にて所有を獲よ惟われらの神ヱホバの壇の外に壇を築きてヱホバに叛く勿れまた我らに悖るなかれ
20 Did not Achan the son of Zerah commit a trespass in the accursed thing? and wrath fell on all the assembly of Israel, and he perished not alone in his iniquity.
ゼラの子アカン詛はれし物につきて愆を犯しつひにイスラエルの全會衆に震怒臨みしにあらずや且また其罪にて滅亡し者は彼人ひとりにはあらざりき
21 And the children of Reuben and the children of Gad and the half tribe of Manasseh answered and said to the heads of the thousands of Israel,
ルベンの子孫ガドの子孫およびマナセの支派の半答へてイスラエルの宗族の長等に言けるは
22 The God of gods, Jehovah, the God of gods, Jehovah, he knoweth, and Israel he shall know [it]; if it is in rebellion, or if in trespass against Jehovah, — save us not this day!
諸の神の神ヱホバ諸の神の神ヱホバ知しめすイスラエルも亦知んもし叛く事あるひはヱホバに罪を犯す事ならば汝今日我らを救ふなかれ
23 — that we have built for ourselves an altar to turn from following Jehovah, and if it is to offer up burnt-offering and oblation on it, and if to offer peace-offerings thereon, let Jehovah himself require it [from us];
我らが壇を築きし事もし翻がへりてヱホバに從がはざらんが爲なるか又は其上に燔祭素祭を献げんが爲なるか又はその上に酬恩祭の犠牲を獻げんがためならばヱホバみづからその罪を問討したまへ
24 and if we have not done it from fear of this thing, saying, In future your children will speak to our children, saying, What have ye to do with Jehovah the God of Israel?
我等は遠き慮をもて故に斯なしたるなり即ち思ひけらく後の日にいたりて汝らの子孫われらの子孫に語りて言ならん汝らはイスラエルの神ヱホバと何の關係あらんや
25 Jehovah hath made the Jordan a border between us and you, ye children of Reuben and children of Gad, ye have no portion in Jehovah! And so shall your children make our children cease from fearing Jehovah.
ルベンの子孫およびガドの子孫よヱホバ我らと汝らの間にヨルダンを界となしたまへり汝らはヱホバの中に分なしと斯いひてなんぢらの子孫われらの子孫としてヱホバを畏るることを息しめんと
26 And we said, Let us now set to work to build an altar, not for burnt-offering, nor for sacrifice,
是故に我ら言けらく我らいま一の壇を我らのために築かんと是燔祭のために非ずまた犠牲のために非ず
27 but to be a witness between us and you, and between our generations after us, that we might do service to Jehovah before him with our burnt-offerings, and with our sacrifices, and with our peace-offerings; that your children may not say to our children in future, Ye have no portion in Jehovah.
惟し之をして我らと汝らの間および我らの後の子孫の間に證とならしめて我ら燔祭犠牲および酬恩祭をもてヱホバの前にその職務をなさんがためなり然せば汝らの子孫後の日いたりて我らの子孫に汝らはヱホバの中に分なしと言こと無らん
28 And we said, If it shall be that in future they so say to us and to our generations, we will say, Behold the pattern of the altar of Jehovah which our fathers made, not for burnt-offering, nor for sacrifice, but as a witness between us and you.
是をもて我ら言り彼らが我らまたは後の日に我らの子孫に然いはばその時我ら言ん我らの父祖の築きたりしヱホバの壇の模形を見よ是は燔祭のためにも非ずまた犠牲のためにもあらず我らと汝らとの間の證なり
29 Far be it from us that we should rebel against Jehovah, and turn this day from following Jehovah, in building an altar for burnt-offering, for oblation, and for sacrifice, besides the altar of Jehovah our God that is before his tabernacle.
ヱホバに叛き翻へりて今日ヱホバに從がふことを息め我らの神ヱホバの幕屋の前にあるその祭壇の外に燔祭素祭犠牲などのために壇を築くことは我らの絶て爲ざる所なり
30 And when Phinehas the priest and the princes of the assembly and the heads of the thousands of Israel that were with him heard the words that the children of Reuben and the children of Gad and the children of Manasseh spoke, it was good in their sight.
祭司ピネハスおよび會衆の長等即ち彼とともなるイスラエルの宗族の首等はルベンの子孫ガドの子孫およびマナセの子孫が述たる言を聞て善とせり
31 And Phinehas the son of Eleazar the priest said unto the children of Reuben, and to the children of Gad, and to the children of Manasseh, This day we perceive that Jehovah is among us, because ye have not committed this trespass against Jehovah: now have ye delivered the children of Israel out of the hand of Jehovah.
祭司エレアザルの子ピネハスすなはちルベンの子孫ガドの子孫およびマナセの子孫に言けるは我ら今日ヱホバの我らの中に在すを知る其は汝らヱホバにむかひて此愆を犯さざればなり今なんぢらはイスラエルの子孫をヱホバの手より救ひいだせりと
32 And Phinehas the son of Eleazar the priest, and the princes, returned from the children of Reuben, and from the children of Gad, out of the land of Gilead, to the land of Canaan, to the children of Israel, and brought them word again.
祭司エレアザルの子ピネハスおよび牧伯等すなはちルベンの子孫およびガドの子孫に別れてギレアデの地よりカナンの地に歸りイスラエルの子孫にいたりて復命しけるに
33 And the thing was good in the sight of the children of Israel, and the children of Israel blessed God, and no more said that they would go up in warfare against them, to destroy the land in which the children of Reuben and the children of Gad dwelt.
イスラエルの子孫これを善とせり而してイスラエルの子孫神を讃めルベンの子孫およびガドの子孫の住をる國を滅ぼしに攻上らんと重ねて言ざりき
34 And the children of Reuben and the children of Gad gave a name to the altar; for it is a witness between us that Jehovah is God.
ルベンの子孫およびガドの子孫その壇をエド(證)と名けて云ふ是は我らの間にありてヱホバは神にいますとの證をなす者なりと
