Numbers 27
1 Then came the daughters of Salphaad, the son of Hepher, the son of Galaad, the son of Machir, the son of Manasses, who was the son of Joseph: and their names are Maala, and Noa, and Hegla, and Melcha, and Thersa.
茲にヨセフの子マナセの族の中なるヘペルの子ゼロペハデの女子等きたれりヘペルはギレアデの子ギレアデはマキルの子マキルはマナセの子なりその女子等の名はマアラ、ノア、ホグラ、ミルカ、テルザといふ
2 And they stood before Moses and Eleazar the priest, and all the princes of the people at the door of the tabernacle of the covenant, and said:
彼ら集會の幕屋の門にてモーセと祭司エレアザルと牧伯等と全會衆の前に立ち言けるは
3 Our father died in the desert, and was not in the sedition, that was raised against the Lord under Core, but he died in his own sin: and he had no male children. Why is his name taken away out of his family, because he had no son? Give us a possession among the kinsmen of our father.
我等の父は曠野に死り彼はかのコラに與して集りてヱホバに逆ひし者等の中に加はらず自己の罪に死り然るに男子なし
4 And Moses referred their cause to the judgment of the Lord.
我らの父の名なんぞその男子あらざるがためにその族の中より削らるることある可んや我らの父の兄弟の中において我らにも產業を與へよと
5 And the Lord said to him:
モーセすなはちその事をヱホバの前に陳けるに
6 The daughters of Salphaad demand a just thing: Give them a possession among their father’s kindred, and let them succeed him in his inheritance.
ヱホバ、モーセに告て言たまはく
7 And to the children of Israel thou shalt speak these things:
ゼロペハデの女子等の言ところは道理なり汝かならず彼らの父の兄弟の中において彼らに產業を與へて獲さすべし即ちその父の產業をこれに歸せしむべし
8 When a man dieth without a son, his inheritance shall pass to his daughter.
汝イスラエルの子孫に告て言べし人もし男子なくして死ばその產業をこれが女子に歸せしむべし
9 If he have no daughter, his brethren shall succeed him.
もしまた女子もあらざる時はその產業をその兄弟に與ふべし
10 And if he have no brethren, you shall give the inheritance to his father’s brethren.
もし兄弟あらざる時はその產業をその父の兄弟に與ふべし
11 But if he have no uncles by the father, the inheritance shall be given to them that are the next akin. And this shall be to the children of Israel sacred by a perpetual law, as the Lord hath commanded Moses.
もしまたその父に兄弟あらざる時はその親戚の最も近き者にその產業を與へて獲さすべしヱホバのモーセに命ぜしごとくイスラエルの子孫は永く之をもて律法の例とすべし
12 The Lord also said to Moses: Go up into this mountain Abarim, and view from thence the land which I will give to the children of Israel.
茲にヱホバ、モーセに言たまはく汝このアバリム山にのぼり我イスラエルの子孫に與へし地を觀よ
13 And when thou shalt have seen it, thou also shalt go to thy people, as thy brother Aaron is gone:
汝これを觀なばアロンの旣に加はりしごとく汝もその民に加はるべし
14 Because you offended me in the desert of Sin in the contradiction of the multitude, neither would you sanctify me before them at the waters. These are the waters of contradiction in Cades of the desert of Sin.
是チンの曠野において會衆の爭論をなせる砌に汝らわが命に悸りかの水の側にて我の聖き事をかれらの目のまへに顯すことを爲ざりしが故なり是すなはちチンの曠野のカデシにあるメリバの水なり
15 And Moses answered him:
モーセ、ヱホバに申して言けるは
16 May the Lord the God of the spirits of all flesh provide a man, that may be over this multitude:
ヱホバ一切の血肉ある者の生命の神よ願くはこの會衆の上に一人を立て
17 And may go out and in before them, and may lead them out, or bring them in: lest the people of the Lord be as sheep without a shepherd.
之をして彼等の前に出かれらの前に入り彼らを導き出し彼らを導き入る者とならしめヱホバの會衆をして牧者なき羊のごとくならざらしめたまへ
18 And the Lord said to him: Take Josue the son of Nun, a man in whom is the Spirit, and put thy hand upon him.
ヱホバ、モーセに言たまはくヌンの子ヨシユアといふ霊のやどれる人を取り汝の手をその上に按き
19 And he shall stand before Eleazar the priest and all the multitude:
これを祭司エレアザルと全會衆の前に立せて彼らの前にて之に命ずる事をなすべし
20 And thou shalt give him precepts in the sight of all, and part of thy glory, that all the congregation of the children of Israel may hear him.
汝これに自己の尊榮を分ち與ヘイスラエルの子孫の全會衆をしてこれに順がはしむべし
21 If any thing be to be done, Eleazar the priest shall consult the Lord for him. He and all the children of Israel with him, and the rest of the multitude shall go out and go in at his word.
彼は祭司エレアザルの前に立べしエレアザルはウリムをもて彼のためにヱホバの前に問ことを爲べしヨシユアとイスラエルの子孫すなはちその全會衆はエレアザルの言にしたがひて出でエレアザルの言にしたがひて入べし
22 Moses did as the Lord had commanded. And when he had taken Josue, he set him before Eleazar the priest, and all the assembly of the people,
是においてモーセはヱホバの己に命じたまへるごとく爲しヨシユアを取て之を祭司エレアザルと全會衆の前に立せ
23 And laying his hands on his head, he repeated all things that the Lord had commanded.
その手をこれが上に按き之に命ずることを爲しヱホバのモーセをもて命じたまへる如くなせり
