1 Samuel 15
1 And Samuel said to Saul: The Lord sent me to anoint thee king over his People Israel: now therefore hearken thou unto the voice of the Lord:
茲にサムエル、サウルにいひけるはヱホバ我をつかはし汝に膏を沃ぎて其民イスラエルの王となさしめたりさればヱホバの言の聲をきけ
2 Thus saith the Lord of hosts: I have reckoned up all that Amalec hath done to Israel: I how he opposed them in the way when they came up out of Egypt.
萬軍のヱホバかくいひたまふ我アマレクがイスラエルになせし事すなはちエジプトよりのぼれる時其途を遮りしをかへりみる
3 Now therefore go, and smite Amalec, and utterly destroy all that he hath: spare him not, nor covet any thing that is his: but slay both man and woman, child and suckling, ox and sheep, camel and ass.
今ゆきてアマレクを撃ち其有る物をことごとく滅しつくし彼らを憐むなかれ男女童稚哺乳兒牛羊駱駝驢馬を皆殺せ
4 So Saul commanded the people, and numbered them as lambs: two hundred thousand footmen, and ten thousand of the men of Juda.
サウル民をよびあつめてこれをテライムに核ふ歩兵二十萬ユダの人一萬あり
5 And when Saul was come to the city of Amalec, he laid ambushes in the torrent.
しかしてサウル、アマレクの邑にいたりて谷に兵を伏たり
6 And Saul said to the Cinite: Go, depart and get ye down from Amalec: lest I destroy thee with him. For thou hast shewn kindness to all the children of Israel, when they came up out of Egypt. And the Cinite departed from the midst of Amalec.
サウル、ケニ人にいひけるは汝らゆきてさりアマレク人をはなれくだるべし恐らくはかれらとともに汝らをほろぼすにいたらんイスラエルの子孫のエジプトよりのぼれる時汝らこれに恩みをほどこしたりと即ちケニ人アマレク人をはなれてさりぬ
7 And Saul smote Amalec from Hevila, until thou comest to Sur, which is over against Egypt.
サウル、アマレク人をうちてハビラよりエジプトの東面なるシユルにいたる
8 And he took Agag the king of Amalec alive: but all the common people he slew with the edge of the sword.
サウル、アマレク人の王アガグを生擒り刃をもて其民をことごとくほろぼせり
9 And Saul and the people spared Agag and the best of the flocks of sheep and of the herds, and the garments and the rams, and all that was beautiful, and would not destroy them: but every thing that was vile and good for nothing, that they destroyed.
然ども、サウルと民アガグをゆるしまた羊と牛の最も嘉きもの及び肥たる物並に羔と凡て善き物を殘して之をほろぼしつくすをこのまず但惡き弱き物をほろぼしつくせり
10 And the word of the Lord came to Samuel, saying:
時にヱホバの言サムエルにのぞみていはく
11 It repenteth me that I have made Saul king: for he hath forsaken me, and hath not executed my commandments. And Samuel was grieved, and he cried unto the Lord all night.
我サウルを王となせしを悔ゆ其は彼背きて我にしたがはずわが命をおこなはざればなりとサムエル憂て終夜ヱホバによばはれり
12 And when Samuel rose early, to go to Saul in the morning, it was told Samuel, that Saul was come to Carmel, and had erected for himself a triumphant arch, and returning had passed on, and gone down to Galgal. And Samuel came to Saul, and Saul was offering a holocaust to the Lord out of the choicest of the spoils which he had brought from Amalec.
かくてサムエル、サウルにあはんとて夙く起きけるにサムエルにつぐるものありていふサウル、カルメルにいたり勝利の表を立て轉り進みてギルガルにくだれりと
13 And when Samuel was come to Saul, Saul said to him: Blessed be thou of the Lord, I have fulfilled the word of the Lord.
サムエル、サウルの許に至りければサウルこれにいひけるは汝がヱホバより福祉を得んことをねがふ我ヱホバの命を行へりと
14 And Samuel said: What meaneth then this bleating of the flocks, which soundeth in my ears, and the lowing of the herds, which I hear?
サムエルいひけるは然らばわが耳にいる此羊の聲およびわがきく牛のこゑは何ぞや
15 And Saul said: They have brought them from Amalec: for the people spared the best of the sheep and of the herds that they might be sacrificed to the Lord thy God, but the rest we have slain.
サウルいひけるは人々これをアマレク人のところより引ききたれり其は民汝の神ヱホバにささげんために羊と牛の最も嘉きものをのこせばなり其ほかは我らほろぼしつくせり
16 And Samuel said to Saul: Suffer me, and I will tell thee what the Lord hath said to me this night. And he said to him: Speak.
サムエル、サウルにいけるは止まれ昨夜ヱホバの我にかたりたまひしことを汝につげんサウルいひけるはいへ
17 And Samuel said: When thou wast a little one in thy own eyes, wast thou not made the head of the tribes of Israel? And the Lord anointed thee to be king over Israel.
サムエルいひけるはさきに汝が微き者とみづから憶へる時に爾イスラエルの支派の長となりしに非ずや即ちヱホバ汝に膏を注いでイスラエルの王となせり
18 And the Lord sent thee on the way, and said: Go, and kill the sinners of Amalec, and thou shalt fight against them until thou hast utterly destroyed them.
ヱホバ汝を途に遣はしていひたまはく往て惡人なるアマレク人をほろぼし其盡るまで戰へよと
19 Why then didst thou not hearken to the voice of the Lord: but hast turned to the prey, and hast done evil in the eyes of the Lord.
何故に汝ヱホバの言をきかずして敵の所有物にはせかかりヱホバの目のまへに惡をなせしや
20 And Saul said to Samuel: Yea I have hearkened to the voice of the Lord, and have walked in the way by which the Lord sent me, and have brought Agag the king of Amalec, and Amalec I have slain.
サウル、サムエルにひけるは我誠にヱホバの言にしたがひてヱホバのつかはしたまふ途にゆきアマレクの王アガグを執きたりアマレクをほろぼしつくせり
21 But the people took of the spoils sheep and oxen, as the firstfruits of those things that were slain, to offer sacrifice to the Lord their God in Galgal.
ただ民其ほろぼしつくすべき物の最初としてギルガルにて汝の神ヱホバにささげんとて敵の物の中より羊と牛をとれり
22 And Samuel said: Doth the Lord desire holocausts and victims, and not rather that the voice of the Lord should be obeyed? For obedience is better than sacrifices: and to hearken rather than to offer the fat of rams.
サムエルいひけるはヱホバはその言にしたがふ事を善したまふごとく燔祭と犠牲を善したまふや夫れ順ふ事は犠牲にまさり聽く事は牡羔の脂にまさるなり
23 Because it is like the sin of witchcraft, to rebel: and like the crime of idolatry, to refuse to obey. Forasmuch therefore as thou hast rejected the word of the Lord, the Lord hath also rejected thee from being king.
其は違逆は魔術の罪のごとく抗戻は虚しき物につかふる如く偶像につかふるがごとし汝ヱホバの言を棄たるによりヱホバもまた汝をすてて王たらざらしめたまふ
24 And Saul said to Samuel: I have sinned because I have transgressed the commandment of the Lord, and thy words, fearing the people, and obeying their voice.
サウル、サムエルにいひけるに我ヱホバの命と汝の言をやぶりて罪ををかしたり是は民をおそれて其言にしたがひたるによりてなり
25 But now bear, I beseech thee, my sin, and return with me, that I may adore the Lord.
されば今ねがはくはわがつみをゆるし我とともにかへりて我をしてヱホバを拝することをえさしめよ
26 And Samuel said to Saul: I will not return with thee, because thou hast rejected the word of the Lord, and the Lord hath rejected thee from being king over Israel.
サムエル、サウルにいひけるは我汝とともにかへらじ汝ヱホバの言を棄たるによりヱホバ汝をすててイスラエルに王たらしめたまはざればなり
27 And Samuel turned about to go away: but he laid hold upon the skirt of his mantle, and it rent.
サムエル去らんとて振還しときサウルその明衣の裾を捉へしかば裂たり
28 And Samuel said to him: The Lord hath rent the kingdom of Israel from thee this day, and hath given it to thy neighbour who is better than thee.
サムエルかれにいひけるは今日ヱホバ、イスラエルの國を裂て汝よりはなし汝の隣なる汝より善きものにこれをあたへたまふ
29 But the triumpher in Israel will riot spare, and will not be moved to repentance: for he is not a mail that he should repent.
またイスラエルの能力たる者は謊らず悔ず其はかれは人にあらざればくゆることなし
30 Then he said: I have sinned: yet honour me now before the ancients of my people, and before Israel, and return with me, that I may adore the Lord thy God.
サウルいひけるは我罪ををかしたれどねがはくはわが民の長老のまへおよびイスラエルのまへにて我をたふとみて我とともにかへり我をして汝の神ヱホバを拝むことをえさしめよ
31 So Samuel turned again after Saul: and Saul adored the Lord.
ここにおいてサムエル、サウルにしたがひてかへるしかしてサウル、ヱホバを拝む
32 And Samuel said: Bring hitherto me Agag the king of Amalec. And Agag was presented to him very fat, and trembling. And Agag said: Doth bitter death separate in this manner?
時にサムエルいひけるは汝らわが許にアマレクの王アガグをひききたれとアガグ喜ばしげにサムエルの許にきたりアガグいひけるは死の苦みは必ず過さりぬ
33 And Samuel said: As thy sword hath made women childless, so shall thy mother be childless among women. And Samuel hewed him in pieces before the Lord in Galgal.
サムエルいひけるに汝の劍はおほくの婦人を子なき者となせりかくのごとく汝の母は婦人の中の最も子なき者となるべしとサムエル、ギルガルにてヱホバのまへにおいてアガグを斬り
34 And Samuel departed to Ramatha: but Saul went up to his house in Gabaa.
かくてサムエルはラマにゆきサウルはサウルのギベアにのぼりてその家にいたる
35 And Samuel saw Saul no more till the day of his death: nevertheless Samuel mourned for Saul, because the Lord repented that he had made him king over Israel.
サムエル其しぬる日までふたたびきたりてサウルをみざりきしかれどもサムエル、サウルのためにかなしめりまたヱホバはサウルをイスラエルの王となせしを悔たまへり
