< Joshua 11 >

1 And when Jabin king of Asor had heard these things, he sent to Jobab king of Madon, and to the king of Semeron, and to the king of Achsaph:
ハゾルの王ヤビン之を聞およびマドンの王ヨバブ、シムロンの王アクサフの王
2 And to the kings of the north, that dwelt in the mountains and in the plains over against the south side of Ceneroth, and in the levels and the countries of Dor by the sea side:
および北の地山地キンネロテの南のアラバ平地西の方なるドルの高處などに居る王等
3 To the Chanaanites also on the ease and on the west, and the Amorrhite, and the Hethite, and the Pherezite, and the Jebusite in the mountains: to the Hevite also who dwelt at the foot of Hermon in the land of Maspha.
すなはち東西のカナン人アモリ人ヘテ人ペリジ人山地のエブス人ミヅバの地なるヘルモンの麓のヒビ人などに人を遣はせり
4 And they all came out with their troops, a people exceeding numerous as the sand that is on the sea shore, their horses also and chariots a very great multitude,
爰に彼らその諸軍勢を率ゐて出きたれり其民の衆多ことは濱の砂の多きがごとくにして馬と車もまた甚だ多かりき
5 And all these kings assembled together at the waters of Merom, to fight against Israel.
これらの王たち皆あひ會して進みきたり共にメロムの水の邊に陣をとりてイスラエルと戰はんとす
6 And the Lord said to Josue: Fear them not: for tomorrow at this same hour I will deliver all these to be slain in the sight of Israel: thou shalt hamstring their horses, and thou shalt burn their chariots with fire.
時にヱホバ、ヨシユアに言たまひけるは彼らの故によりて懼るる勿れ明日の今頃われ彼らをイスラエルの前に付して盡く殺さしめん汝かれらの馬の足の筋を截り火をもて彼らの車を焚べしと
7 And Josue came, and all the army with him, against them to the waters of Merom on a sudden, and fell upon them.
ヨシユアすなはち一切の軍人を率ゐて俄然にメロムの水の邊に押寄て之を襲ひけるに
8 And the Lord delivered them into the hands of Israel. And they defeated them, and chased them as far as the great Sidon, and the waters of Maserophot, and the field of Masphe, which is on the east side thereof. He slew them all, so as to leave no remains of them:
ヱホバこれをイスラエルの手に付したまひしかば則ち之を撃やぶりて大シドンおよびミスレポテマイムまで之を追ゆき東の方にては又ミヅバの谷までこれを追ゆき遂に一人をも遺さず撃とれり
9 And he did as the Lord had commanded him, he hamstringed their horses and burned their chariots.
ヨシユアすなはちヱホバの己に命じたまひしことにしたがひて彼らに馬の足の筋を截り火をもてその車を焚り
10 And presently turning back he took Asor: and slew the king thereof with the sword. Now Asor of old was the head of all these kingdoms.
その時ヨシユア歸りきたりてハゾルを取り刃をもてその王を撃り在昔ハゾルは是らの諸國の盟主たりき
11 And he cut off all the souls that abode there: he left not in it any remains, but utterly destroyed all, and burned the city itself with fire.
即ち刃をもてその中なる一切の人を撃てことごとく之を滅ぼし氣息する者は一人だに遺さざりき又火をもてハゾルを焚り
12 And he took and put to the sword and destroyed all the cities round about, and their kings, as Moses the servant of God had commanded him.
ヨシユアこれらの王の一切の邑々およびその諸王を取り刃をもてこれを撃て盡く滅ぼせり、ヱホバの僕モーセの命じたるがごとし
13 Except the cities that were on hills and high places, the rest Israel burned: only Asor that was very strong he consumed with fire.
但しその岡の上にたちたる邑々はイスラエルこれを焚ず唯ハゾルのみをヨシユア焚り
14 And the children of Israel divided among themselves all the spoil of these cities and the cattle, killing all the men.
是らの邑の諸の貨財及び家畜はイスラエルの人々奪ひて自ら之を取り人はみな刃をもて撃て滅ぼし盡し氣息する者は一人だに遺さざりき
15 As the Lord had commanded Moses his servant, so did Moses command Josue, and he accomplished all: he left not one thing undone of all the commandments which the Lord had commanded Moses.
ヱホバその僕モーセに命じたまひし所をモーセまたヨシユアに命じ置たりしがヨシユアその如くに行へり凡てヱホバのモーセに命じたまひし所はヨシユア一だに爲で置し事なし
16 So Josue took all the country of the hills, and of the south, and the land of Gosen, and the plains and the west country, and the mountain of Israel, and the plains thereof:
ヨシユア斯その全地すなはち山地南の全地ゴセンの全地平地アラバ、イスラエルの山地およびその平地を取り
17 And part of the mountain that goeth up to Seir as far as Baalgad, by the plain of Libanus under mount Hermon: all their kings he took, smote and slew.
セイルに上りゆくでハラク山よりヘルモン山の麓なるレバノン谷のバアルガデまでを獲その王等をことごとく執へて之を撃て死しめたり
18 Josue made war a long time against these kings.
ヨシユア此すべての王等と戰爭をなすこと日ひさし
19 There was hot a city that delivered itself to the children of Israel, except the Hevite, who dwelt in Gabaon: for he took all by fight.
ギベオンの民ヒビ人を除くの外はイスラエルの子孫と好をなしし邑なかりき皆戰爭をなしてこれを攻とりしなり
20 For it was the sentence of the Lord, that their hearts should be hardened, and they should fight against Israel, and fall, and should not deserve any clemency, and should be destroyed as the Lord had commanded Moses.
そもそも彼らが心を剛愎にしてイスラエルに攻よせしはヱホバの然らしめたまひし者なり彼らは詛はれし者となり憐憫を乞ふこととせず滅ぼされんがためなりき是全くヱホバのモーセに命じたまひしが如し
21 At that time Josue came and cut off the Enacims from the mountains, from Hebron, and Dabir, and Anab, and from all the mountain of Juda and Israel, and destroyed their cities.
その時ヨシユアまた往て山地ヘブロン、デビル、アナブ、ユダの一切の山地イスラエルの一切の山地などよりしてアナク人を絶ち而してヨシユア彼らの邑々をも與に滅ぼせり
22 He left not any of the stock of the Enacims, in the land of the children of Israel: except the cities of Gaza, and Geth, and Azotus, in which alone they were left.
然からにイスラエルの子孫の地の内にはアナク人一人も遺りをらず只ガザ、ガテ、アシドドに少く遺りをる而已
23 So Josue took all the land, as the Lord spoke to Moses, and delivered it in possession to the children of Israel, according to their divisions and tribes. And the land rested from wars.
ヨシユアかく此地を盡く取り全くヱホバのモーセに告たまひし如し而してヨシユア、イスラエルの支派の區別にしたがひ之を與へて產業となさしめたり遂に此地に戰爭やみぬ
