< Genesis 28 >
1 And Isaac called Jacob, and blessed him, and charged him, saying: Take not a wife of the stock of Chanaan:
イサク、ヤコブを呼て之を祝し之に命じて言けるは汝カナンの女の中より妻を娶るなかれ
2 But go, and take a journey to Mesopotamia of Syria, to the house of Bathuel thy mother’s father, and take thee a wife thence of the daughters of Laban thy uncle.
起てパダンアラムに往き汝の母の父ベトエルの家にいたり彼處にて汝の母の兄ラバンの女の中より妻を娶れ
3 And God almighty bless thee, and make thee to increase, and multiply thee: that thou mayst be a multitude of people.
願くは全能の神汝を祝み汝をして子女を多く得せしめ且汝の子孫を増て汝をして多衆の民とならしめ
4 And give the blessings of Abraham to thee, and to thy seed after thee: that thou mayst possess the land of thy sojournment, which he promised to thy grandfather.
又アブラハムに賜んと約束せし祝を汝および汝と共に汝の子孫に賜ひ汝をして神がアブラハムにあたへ給ひし此汝が寄寓る地を持たしめたまはんことをと
5 And when Isaac had sent him away, he took his journey and went to Mesopotamia of Syria to Laban the son of Bathuel the Syrian, brother to Rebecca his mother.
斯てイサク、ヤコブを遣しければパダンアラムにゆきてラバンの所にいたれりラバンはスリア人ベトエルの子にしてヤコブとエサウの母なるリベカの兄なり
6 And Esau seeing that his father had blessed Jacob, and had sent him into Mesopotamia of Syria, to marry a wife thence; and that after the blessing he had charged him, saying: Thou shalt not take a wife of the daughters of Chanaan:
エサウはイサクがヤコブを祝して之をパダンアラムにつかはし彼處より妻を娶しめんとしたるを見又之を祝し汝はカナンの女の中より妻をめとるなかれといひて之に命じたることを見
7 And that Jacob obeying his parents was gone into Syria:
又ヤコブが其父母の言に順ひてパダンアラムに往しを見たり
8 Experiencing also that his father was not well pleased with the daughters of Chanaan:
エサウまたカナンの女の其父イサクの心にかなはぬを見たり
9 He went to Ismael, and took to wife, besides them he had before, Maheleth the daughter of Ismael, Abraham’s son, the sister of Nabajoth.
是においてエサウ、イシマエルの所にゆきて其有る妻の外に又アブラハムの子イシマエルの女ネバヨテの妹マハラテを妻にめとれり
10 But Jacob being departed from Bersabee, went on to Haran.
茲にヤコブ、ベエルシバより出たちてハランの方におもむきけるが
11 And when he was come to a certain place, and would rest in it after sunset, he took of the stones that lay there, and putting under his head, slept in the same place.
一處にいたれる時日暮たれば即ち其處に宿り其處の石をとり枕となして其處に臥て寢たり
12 And he saw in his sleep a ladder standing upon the earth, and the top thereof touching heaven: the angels also of God ascending and descending by it;
時に彼夢て梯の地にたちゐて其巓の天に逹れるを見又神の使者の其にのぼりくだりするを見たり
13 And the Lord leaning upon the ladder, saying to him: I am the Lord God of Abraham thy father, and the God of Isaac; the land, wherein thou sleepest, I will give to thee and to thy seed.
ヱホバ其上に立て言たまはく我は汝の祖父アブラハムの神イサクの神ヱホバなり汝が偃臥ところの地は我之を汝と汝の子孫に與へん
14 And thy seed shall be as the dust of the earth: thou shalt spread abroad to the west, and to the east, and to the north, and to the south: and IN THEE and thy seed all the tribes of the earth SHALL BE BLESSED.
汝の子孫は地の塵沙のごとくなりて西東北南に蔓るべし又天下の諸の族汝と汝の子孫によりて福祉をえん
15 And I will be thy keeper whithersoever thou goest, and will bring thee back into this land: neither will I leave thee, till I shall have accomplished all that I have said.
また我汝とともにありて凡て汝が往ところにて汝をまもり汝を此地に率返るべし我はわが汝にかたりし事を行ふまで汝をはなれざるなり
16 And when Jacob awaked out of sleep, he said: Indeed the Lord is in this place, and I knew it not.
ヤコブ目をさまして言けるは誠にヱホバ此處にいますに我しらざりきと
17 And trembling he said: How terrible is this place! this is no other but the house of God, and the gate of heaven.
乃ち惶懼ていひけるは畏るべき哉此處是即ち神の殿の外ならず是天の門なり
18 And Jacob, arising in the morning, took the stone, which he had laid under his head, and set it up for a title, pouring oil upon the top of it.
かくてヤコブ朝夙に起き其枕となしたる石を取り之を立て柱となし膏を其上に沃ぎ
19 And he called the name of the city Bethel, which before was called Luza.
其處を名をベテル(神殿)と名けたり其邑の名は初はルズといへり
20 And he made a vow, saying: If God shall be with me, and shall keep me in the way by which I walk, and shall give me bread to eat, and raiment to put on,
ヤコブ乃ち誓をたてていひけるは若神我とともにいまし此わがゆく途にて我をまもり食ふパンと衣る衣を我にあたへ
21 And I shall return prosperously to my father’s house: the Lord shall be my God:
我をしてわが父の家に安然に歸ることを得せしめたまはばヱホバをわが神となさん
22 And this stone, which I have set up for a title, shall be called the house of God: and of all things that thou shalt give to me, I will offer tithes to thee.
又わが柱にたてたる此石を神の家となさん又汝がわれにたまふ者は皆必ず其十分の一を汝にささげん
