Joshua 6
1 Now Jericho was close shut up and fenced, for fear of the children of Israel, and no man durst go out or come in.
(イスラエルの人々の故によりてヱリコは堅く閉して出入する者なし)
2 And the Lord said to Josue: Behold I have given into thy hands Jericho, and the king thereof, and all the valiant men.
ヱホバ、ヨシユアに言ひたまひけるは觀よわれヱリコおよびその王と大勇士とを汝の手に付さん
3 Go round about the city, all ye fighting men, once a day: so shall ye do for six days.
汝ら軍人みな邑を繞りて邑の周圍を一次まはるべし汝六日が間かく爲よ
4 And on the seventh day the priests shall take the seven trumpets, which are used in the jubilee, and shall go before the ark of the covenant: and you shall go about the city seven times, and the priests shall sound the trumpets.
祭司等七人おのおのヨベルの喇叭をたづさへて櫃に先だつべし而して第七日には汝ら七次邑をめぐり祭司等喇叭を吹ならすべし
5 And when the voice of the trumpet shall give a longer and broken tune, and shall sound in your ears, all the people shall shout together with a very great shout, and the walls of the city shall fall to the ground, and they shall enter in every one at the place against which they shall stand.
然して祭司等ヨベルの角を音ながくふきならして喇叭の聲なんぢらに聞ゆる時は民みな大に呼はり喊ぶべし然せばその邑の石垣崩れおちん民みな直に進て攻のぼるべしと
6 Then Josue the son of Nun called the priests, and said to them: Take the ark of the covenant: and let seven other priests take the seven trumpets of the jubilee, and march before the ark of the Lord.
ヌンの子ヨシユアやがて祭司等を召て之に言ふ汝ら契約の櫃を舁き祭司等七人ヨベルの喇叭七をたづさへてヱホバの櫃に先だつべしと
7 And he said to the people: Go, and compass the city, armed, marching before the ark of the Lord.
而して民に言ふ汝ら進みゆきて邑を繞れ甲冑のものどもヱホバの櫃に先だちて進むべしと
8 And when Josue had ended his words, and the seven priests blew the seven trumpets before the ark of the covenant of the Lord,
ヨシユアかく民に語りしかば七人の祭司等おのおのヨベルの喇叭をたづさへヱホバに先だちすきみて喇叭を吹きヱホバの契約の櫃これにしたがふ
9 And all the armed men went before, the rest of the common people followed the ark, and the sound of the trumpets was heard on all sides.
即ち甲冑のものどもは喇叭を吹くところの祭司等にさきだちて行き後軍は櫃の後に行く祭司たちは喇叭を吹きつつすすめり
10 But Josue had commanded the people, saying: You shall not shout, nor shall your voice be heard, nor any word go out of your mouth: until the day come wherein I shall say to you: Cry, and shout.
ヨシユア民に命じて言ふ汝ら呼はる勿れ汝らの聲を聞えしむるなかれまた汝らの口より言を出すなかれわが汝らに呼はれと命ずる日におよびて呼はるべしと
11 So the ark of the Lord went about the city once a day, and returning into the camp, abode there.
而してヱホバの櫃をもち邑を繞りて一周し陣營に來りて營中に宿れり
12 And Josue rising before day, the priests took the ark of the Lord,
又あくる朝ヨシユアはやく興いで祭司等ヱホバの櫃を舁き
13 And seven of them seven trumpets, which are used in the jubilee: and they went before the ark of the Lord walking and sounding the trumpets: and the armed men went before them, and the rest of the common people followed the ark, and they blew the trumpets.
七人の祭司等おのおのヨベルの喇叭をたづさへヱホバの櫃に先だちて行き喇叭を吹きつつすすみ甲冑の者等これに先だちて行き後軍はヱホバの櫃の後に行く祭司等喇叭をふきつつ進めり
14 And they went round about the city the second day once, and returned into the camp. So they did six days.
その次の日にも一次邑を繞りて陣營に歸り六日が間然なせり
15 But the seventh day, rising up early, they went about the city, as it was ordered, seven times.
第七日には夜明に早く興いで前のごとくして七次邑を繞れり唯この日のみ七次邑を繞りたり
16 And when in the seventh going about the priests sounded with the trumpets, Josue said to all Israel: Shout: for the Lord hath delivered the city to you:
七次目にいたりて祭司等喇叭を吹くときにヨシユア民に言ふ汝ら呼はれヱホバこの邑を汝らに賜へり
17 And let this city be an anathema, and all things that are in it, to the Lord. Let only Rahab the harlot live, with all that are with her in the house: for she hid the messengers whom we sent.
この邑およびその中の一切の物をば詛はれしものとしてヱホバに献ぐべし唯妓婦ラハブおよび凡て彼とともに家に在るものは生し存べしわれらが遣しし使者を匿したればなり
18 But beware ye lest you touch ought of those things that are forbidden, and you be guilty of transgression, and all the camp of Israel be under sin, and be troubled.
唯汝ら詛はれし物を愼め恐らくは汝ら其を詛はれしものとして献ぐるに方りその詛はれし物を自ら取りてイスラエルの陣營をも詛はるるものとならしめ之をして惱ましむるに至らん
19 But whatsoever gold or silver there shall be, or vessels of brass and iron, let it be consecrated to the Lord, laid up in his treasures.
但し銀金銅器鐵器などは凡てヱホバに聖別て奉まつるべきものなればヱホバの府庫にこれを携へいるべしと
20 So all the people making a shout, and the trumpets sounding, when the voice and the sound thundered in the ears of the multitude, the walls forthwith fell down: and every man went up by the place that was over against him: and they took the city,
是において民よばはり祭司喇叭を吹ならしけるが民喇叭の聲をきくと斉しくみな大聲を擧て呼はりしかば石垣崩れおちぬ斯りしかば民おのおの直に邑に上りいりて邑を攻取り
21 And killed all that were in it, man and woman, young and old. The oxen also and the sheep, and the asses, they slew with the edge of the sword.
邑にある者は男女少きもの老たるものの區別なく盡くこれを刃にかけて滅ぼし且つ牛羊驢馬にまで及ぼせり
22 But Josue said to the two men that had been sent for spies: Go into the harlot’s house, and bring her out, and all things that are hers, as you assured her by oath.
時にヨシユアこの地を窺ひたりし二箇の人にむかひ汝らかの妓婦の家に入りかの婦人およびかれに屬る一切のものを携へいだしかれに誓ひし如くせよと言ければ
23 And the young men went in and brought out Rahab, and her parents, her brethren also and all her goods and her kindred, and made them to stay without the camp.
間者たりし少き人等すなはち入てラハブおよびその父母兄弟ならびに彼につけるすべてのものを携へ出しまたその親戚をも携へ出しイスラエルの陣營の外にかれらを置り
24 But they burned the city, and all things that were therein; except the gold and silver, and vessels of brass and iron, which they consecrated into the treasury of the Lord.
斯て火をもて邑とその中の一切のものを焚ぬ但し銀金銅器鐵器などはヱホバの室の府庫に納めたり
25 But Josue saved Rahab the harlot and her father’s house, and all she had, and they dwelt in the midst of Israel until this present day: because she hid the messengers whom he had sent to spy out Jericho. At that time, Josue made an imprecation, saying:
妓婦ラハブおよびその父の家の一族と彼に屬る一切の者とはヨシユアこれを生し存ければラハブは今日までイスラエルの中に住をる是はヨシユアがヱリコを窺はせんとて遣はしし使者を匿したるに因てなり
26 Cursed be the man before the Lord, that shall raise up and build the city of Jericho. In his firstborn may he lay the foundation thereof, and in the last of his children set up its gates.
ヨシユアその時人衆に誓ひて命じ言けるは凡そ起てこのヱリコの邑を建る者はヱホバの前に詛はるべし其石礎をすゑなば長子を失ひその門を建なば季子を失はんと
27 And the Lord was with Josue, and his name was noised throughout all the land.
ヱホバ、ヨシユアとともに在してヨシユアの名あまねく此地に聞ゆ
