< 1 Samuel 27 >
1 And David said in his heart: I shall gone day or other fall into the hands of Saul: is it not better for me to flee, and to be saved in the land of the Philistines, that Saul may despair of me, and cease to seek me in all the coasts of Israel? I will flee then out of his hands.
ダビデ心の中にいひけるは是のごとくば我早晩サウルの手にほろびん速にペリシテ人の地にのがるるにまさることあらず然らばサウルかさねて我をイスラエルの四方の境にたづぬることをやめて我かれの手をのがれんと
2 And David arose and went away, both he and the six hundred men that were with him, to Achis the son of Maoch, king of Geth.
ダビデたちておのれとともな六百人のものとともにわたりてガテの王マオクの子アキシにいたる
3 And David dwelt with Achis at Geth, he and his men: every man with his household, and David with his two wives, Achinoam the Jezrahelitess, and Abigail the wife of Nabal of Carmel.
ダビデと其從者ガテにてアキシとともに住ておのおの其家族とともにをるダビデはその二人の妻すなはちヱズレル人アヒノアムとカルメル人ナバルの妻なりしアビガルとともにあり
4 And it was told Saul that David was fled to Geth, and he sought no more after him.
ダビデのガテににげしことサウルにきこえければサウルかさねてかれをたづねざりき
5 And David said to Achis: If I have found favour in thy sight, let a place be given me in one of the cities of this country, that I may dwell there: for why should thy servant dwell in the royal city with thee?
ここにダビデ、アキシにいひけるは我もし爾のまへに恩を得たるならばねがはくは郷里にある邑のうちにて一のところを我にあたへて其處にすむことを得さしめよ僕なんぞ爾とともに王城にすむべけんやと
6 Then Achis gave him Siceleg that day: for which reason Siceleg belongeth to the kings of Juda unto this day.
アキシ其日チクラグをかれにあたへたり是故にヂクラグは今日にいたるまでユダの王に屬す
7 And the time that David dwelt in the country of the Philistines, was four months.
タビデのペリシテ人の國にをりし日數は一年と四箇月なりき
8 And David and his men went up, and pillaged Gessuri, and Gerzi, and the Amalecites: for these were of old the inhabitants of the countries, as men go to Sur, even to the land of Egypt.
ダビデ其從者と共にのぼりゲシユル人ゲゼリ人アマレク人を襲ふたり昔より是等はシユルにいたる地にすみてエジプトの地にまでおよべり
9 And David wasted all the land, and left neither man nor woman alive: and took away the sheep and the oxen, and the asses, and the camels, and the apparel, and returned and came to Achis.
ダビデ其地をうちて男をも女をも生し存さず羊と牛と駱駝と衣服をとりて還りてアキシに至る
10 And Achis said to him: Whom hast thou gone against today? David answered: Against the south of Juda, and against the south of Jerameel, and against the south of Ceni.
アキシいひけるは爾ら今日何地を襲ひしやダビデいひけるはユダの南とヱラメルの南とケニ人の南ををかせりと
11 And David saved neither man nor woman, neither brought he any of them to Geth, saying: Lest they should speak against us. So did David, and such was his proceeding all the days that he dwelt in the country of the Philistines.
ダビデ男も女も生存らしめずして一人をもガテにひきゆかざりき其はダビデ恐くは彼らダビデかくなせりといひて我儕の事を告んといひたればなりダビデ、ペリシテ人の地にすめるあひだは其なすところ常にかくのごとくなりき
12 And Achis believed David, saying: He hath done much harm to his people Israel: therefore he shall be my servant for ever.
アキシ、ダビデを信じていひけるは彼は其民イスラエルをして全くおのれを惡ましむされば永くわが僕となるべし
