Genesis 45
1 Joseph could no longer refrain himself before many that stood by: whereupon he commanded that all should go out, and no stranger be present at their knowing one another.
茲にヨセフその側にたてる人々のまへに自ら禁ぶあたはざるに至りければ人皆われを離ていでよと呼はれり是をもてヨセフが己を兄弟にあかしたる時一人も之とともにたつものなかりき
2 And he lifted up his voice with weeping, which the Egyptians and all the house of Pharao heard.
ヨセフ聲をあげて泣りエジプト人これを聞きパロの家またこれを聞く
3 And he said to his brethren: I am Joseph: is my father yet living? His brethren could not answer him, being struck with exceeding great fear.
ヨセフすなはちその兄弟にいひけるは我はヨセフなりわが父はなほ生ながらへをるやと兄弟等その前に愕き懼れて之にこたふるをえざりき
4 And he said mildly to them: Come nearer to me. And when they were come near him, he said: I am Joseph, your brother, whom you sold into Egypt.
ヨセフ兄弟にいひけるは請ふ我にちかよれとかれらすなはち近よりければ言ふ我はなんぢらの弟ヨセフなんぢらがエジプトにうりたる者なり
5 Be not afraid, and let it not seem to you a hard case that you sold me into these countries: for God sent me before you into Egypt for your preservation.
されど汝等我をここに賣しをもて憂ふるなかれ身を恨るなかれ神生命をすくはしめんとて我を汝等の前につかはしたまへるなり
6 For it is two years since the famine began to be upon the land, and five years more remain, wherein there can be neither ploughing nor reaping.
この二年のあひだ饑饉國の中にありしが尚五年の間耕すことも穫こともなかるべし
7 And God sent me before, that you may be preserved upon the earth, and may have food to live.
神汝等の後を地につたへんため又大なる救をもて汝らの生命を救はんために我を汝等の前に遣したまへり
8 Not by your counsel was I sent hither, but by the will of God: who hath made me as it were a father to Pharao, and lord of his whole house, and governor in all the land of Egypt.
然ば我を此につかはしたる者は汝等にはあらず神なり神われをもてパロの父となしその全家の主となしエジプト全國の宰となしたまへり
9 Make haste, and go ye up to my father, and say to him: Thus saith thy son Joseph: God hath made me lord of the whole land of Egypt: come down to me, linger not.
汝等いそぎ父の許にのぼりゆきて之にいへ汝の子ヨセフかく言ふ神われをエジプト全國の主となしたまへりわが所にくだれ遲疑なかれ
10 And thou shalt dwell in the land of Gessen: and thou shalt be near me, thou and thy sons, and thy sons’ sons, thy sheep, and thy herds, and all things that thou hast.
汝ゴセンの地に住べし斯汝と汝の子と汝の子の子およびなんぢの羊と牛並に汝のすべて有ところの者われの近方にあるべし
11 And there I will feed thee, (for there are yet five years of famine remaining), lest both thou perish, and thy house, and all things that thou hast.
なほ五年の饑饉あるにより我其處にてなんぢを養はん恐くは汝となんぢの家族およびなんぢの凡て有ところの者匱乏ならん
12 Behold, your eyes, and the eyes of my brother Benjamin see that it is my mouth that speaketh to you.
汝等の目とわが弟ベニヤミンの目の視るごとく汝等にこれをいふ者はわが口なり
13 You shall tell my father of all my glory, and all things that you have seen in Egypt: make haste and bring him to me.
汝等わがエジプトにて亨る顯榮となんぢらが見たる所とを皆悉く父につげよ汝ら急ぎて父を此にみちびき下るべし
14 And falling upon the neck of his brother Benjamin, he embraced him and wept: and Benjamin in like manner wept also on his neck.
而してヨセフその弟ベニヤミンの頸を抱へて哭にベニヤミンもヨセフの頸をかかへて哭く
15 And Joseph kissed all his brethren, and wept upon every one of them: after which they were emboldened to speak to him.
ヨセフ亦その諸の兄弟に接吻し之をいだきて哭く是のち兄弟等ヨセフと言ふ
16 And it was heard, and the fame was abroad in the king’s court: The brethren of Joseph are come: and Pharao with all his family was glad.
茲にヨセフの兄弟等きたれりといふ聲パロの家にきこえければパロとその臣僕これを悦ぶ
17 And he spoke to Joseph that he should give orders to his brethren, saying: Load your beasts, and go into the land of Chanaan.
パロすなはちヨセフにいひけるは汝の兄弟に言べし汝等かく爲せ汝等の畜に物を負せ往てカナンの地に至り
18 And bring away from thence your father and kindred, and come to me: and I will give you all the good things of Egypt, that you may eat the marrow of the land.
なんぢらの父となんぢらの家族を携へて我にきたれ我なんぢらにエジプトの地の嘉物をあたへん汝等國の膏腴を食ふことをうべしと
19 Give orders also that they take wagons out of the land of Egypt, for the carriage of their children and their wives: and say: Take up your father, and make haste to come with all speed:
今汝命をうく汝等かく爲せ汝等エジプトの地より車を取ゆきてなんぢらの子女と妻等を載せ汝等の父を導きて來れ
20 And leave nothing of your household stuff: for all the riches of Egypt shall be yours.
また汝等の器を惜み視るなかれエジプト全國の嘉物は汝らの所屬なればなり
21 And the sons of Israel did as they were bid. And Joseph gave them wagons according to Pharao’s commandment: and provisions for the way.
イスラエルの子等すなはち斯なせりヨセフ、パロの命にしたがひて彼等に車をあたへかつ途の餱糧をかれらにあたへたり
22 He ordered also to be brought out for every one of them two robes: but to Benjamin he gave three hundred pieces of silver with five robes of the best:
又かれらに皆おのおの衣一襲を與へたりしがベニヤミンには銀三百と衣五襲をあたへたり
23 Sending to his father as much money and raiment, adding besides ten he asses to carry off all the riches of Egypt, and as many she asses, carrying wheat and bread for the journey.
彼また斯のごとく父に餽れり即ち驢馬十疋にエジプトの嘉物をおはせ牝の驢馬十疋に父の途の用に供ふる穀物と糧と肉をおはせて餽れり
24 So he sent away his brethren, and at their departing said to them: Be not angry in the way.
斯して兄弟をかへして去しめ之にいふ汝等途にて相あらそふなかれと
25 And they went up out of Egypt, and came into the land of Chanaan to their father Jacob.
かれらエジプトより上りてカナンの地にゆきその父ヤコブにいたり
26 And they told him, saying: Joseph thy son is living: and he is ruler in all the land of Egypt. Which when Jacob heard, he awaked as it were out of a deep sleep, yet did not believe them.
之につげてヨセフは尚いきてをりエジプト全國の宰となりをるといふしかるにヤコブの心なほ寒冷なりき其はこれを信ぜざればなり
27 They, on the other side, told the whole order of the thing. And when he saw the wagons and all that he had sent his spirit revived,
彼等またヨセフの己にいひたる言をことごとく之につげたりその父ヤコブ、ヨセフがおのれを載んとておくりし車をみるにおよびて其氣おのれにかへれり
28 And he said: It is enough for me, if Joseph my son be yet living: I will go and see him before I die.
イスラエルすなはちいふ足りわが子ヨセフなほ生をるわれ死ざるまへに往て之を視ん
