Deuteronomy 29
1 The following are the terms of the agreement that the Lord ordered Moses to make with the Israelites in the country of Moab This was in addition to the agreement he had made with them at Horeb.
ヱホバ、モーセに命じモアブの地にてイスラエルの子孫と契約を結ばしめたまふその言は斯のごとし是はホレブにてかれらと結びし契約の外なる者なり
2 Moses called all the Israelites together and announced to them, You saw with your own eyes everything the Lord did in Egypt to Pharaoh, to all his officials, and to his whole country.
モーセ、イスラエルの全家を呼あつめて之に言けるは汝らはヱホバがエジプトの地において汝らの目の前にてパロとその臣下とその全地とに爲たまひし一切の事を觀たり
3 You saw with your own eyes the amazing tests, and those great signs and miracles.
即ち其大なる試煉と徴證と大なる奇跡とを汝目に觀たるなり
4 But up to now the Lord has not given you minds that understand, or eyes that see, or ears that hear, saying,
然るにヱホバ今日にいたるまで汝らの心をして悟ることなく目をして見ることなく耳をして聞ことなからしめたまへり
5 For forty years I led you through the desert, but your clothes and sandals didn't wear out.
四十年の間われ汝らを導きて曠野を通りしが汝らの身の衣服は古びず汝の足の鞋は古びざりき
6 You didn't have bread to eat, or wine or alcohol to drink in order that you would realize that I am the Lord your God.
汝らはまたパンをも食はず葡萄酒をも濃酒をも飮ざりき斯ありて汝らは我が汝らの神ヱホバなることを知り
7 When we arrived here, Sihon king of Heshbon and Og king of Bashan marched out to fight us in battle, but we defeated them.
汝らこの處に來りし時ヘシボンの王シホンおよびバシヤンの王オグ我らを迎へて戰ひしが我らこれを打敗りて
8 We took their land and gave it to the tribes of Reuben, Gad, and the half-tribe of Manasseh to own.
その地を取りこれをルベン人とガド人とマナセの半支派とに與へて產業となさしめたり
9 So make sure you keep and follow the terms of this agreement in order that you may be successful in everything you do.
然ば汝らこの契約の言を守りてこれを行ふべし然れば汝らの凡て爲ところに祥あらん
10 Every one of you is stand here today before the Lord your God: you tribal leaders, officials, and all the men of Israel,
汝らみな今日なんぢらの神ヱホバの前に立つ即ち汝らの首領等なんぢらの支派なんぢらの長老等および汝らの牧司等などイスラエルの一切の人
11 your children and wives, and the foreigners in your camps who cut your firewood and carry your water.
汝らの小き者等汝らの妻ならびに汝らの營の中にをる客旅など凡て汝のために薪を割る者より水を汲む者にいたるまで皆ヱホバの前に立て
12 You're here so you can enter into the agreement of the Lord your God, which he is making with you today, and accept his solemn promise,
汝の神ヱホバの契約に入んとし又汝の神ヱホバの汝にむかひて今日なしたまふところの誓に入んとす
13 and so he can confirm you today as his people. He will be your God as he told you and as he promised your forefathers Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob.
然ばヱホバさきに汝に言しごとくまた汝の先祖アブラハム、イサク、ヤコブに誓ひしごとく今日なんぢを立て己の民となし己みづから汝の神となりたまはん
14 It's not only with you that the Lord is making this agreement and solemn promise,
我はただ汝らと而已此契約と誓とを結ぶにあらず
15 those who are standing here with us today in the presence of the Lord our God, but also with those who are not here today.
今日此にてわれらの神ヱホバの前に我らとともにたちをる者ならびに今日われらとともに此にたち居ざる者ともこれを結ぶなり
16 You know very well what it was like when we lived in the land of Egypt and our experiences as we passed through the nations on the way here.
我らは如何にエジプトの地に住をりしか如何に國々を通り來りしか汝らこれを知り
17 You saw their disgusting religious practices and their idols of wood and stone, and silver and gold.
汝らはまた木石金銀にて造れる憎むべき物および偶像のその國々にあるを見たり
18 You need to make sure today that there's no man or woman, family or tribe of yours who wants to turn from the Lord our God and go and worship the gods of these nations. Make sure there is nothing like that among you that would produce such poison and bitterness.
然ば汝らの中に今日その心に我らの神ヱホバを離れて其等の國々の神に往て事ふる男女宗族支派などあるべからず又なんぢらの中に葶藶または茵蔯を生ずる根あるべからず
19 For when someone like that hears the words of this solemn promise, they think they'll still receive a blessing, telling themselves, “I'll be safe, even though I'll go on doing whatever I feel like.” Such an attitude would destroy good and bad alike.
斯る人はこの呪詛の言を聞もその心に自ら幸福なりと思ひて言ん我はわが心を剛愎にして事をなすも尚平安なり終には酔飽る者をもて渇ける者を除くにいたらんと
20 The Lord would never want to pardon them. In fact, his passionate anger will burn against them, and every curse written in this book will fall on them. The Lord will erase their name from the earth,
是のごとき人はヱホバかならず之を赦したまはじ還てヱホバの忿怒と嫉妬の火これが上に燃えまたこの書にしるしたる災禍みなその身に加はらんヱホバつひにその人の名を天が下より抹さりたまふべし
21 and punish them as an example of them for all the Israelite tribes, in accordance with all the curses of the agreement written in this Book of the Law.
ヱホバすなはちイスラエルの諸の支派の中よりその人を分ちてこれに災禍を下しこの律法の書にしるしたる契約中の諸の呪詛のごとくしたまはん
22 Later generations, your descendants and foreigners from far away, will see how the Lord has brought disaster on the country and devastated it.
汝等の後に起る汝らの子孫の代の人および遠き國より來る客旅この地の災禍を見またヱホバがこの地に流行せたまふ疾病を見て言ところあらん
23 The whole country will be burning wasteland of sulfur and salt. Nothing is sown; it's totally unproductive; no plant grows there—just like the destruction of Sodom and Gomorrah, Admah and Zeboiim, which the Lord destroyed in his furious anger.
即ち彼ら見るにその全地は硫黄となり鹽となり且燒土となりて種も蒔れず產する所もなく何の草もその上に生せずして彼の昔ヱホバがその震怒と忿恨とをもて毀ちたましソドム、ゴモラ、アデマ、ゼポイムの毀たれたると同じかるべければ
24 Everyone everywhere will ask, “Why did the Lord do this to the country? Why did he get so terribly angry?”
彼らも國々の人もみな言んヱホバ何とて斯この地になしたるやこの烈しき大なる震怒は何事ぞやと
25 The people will answer, “It's because they abandoned the agreement of the Lord, the God of their forefathers, which he made with them when he led them out of Egypt.
その時人應へて曰ん彼らはその先祖たちの神ヱホバがエジプトの地より彼らを導きいだして彼らと結びたるその契約を棄て
26 They went off and worshiped other gods, bowing down to gods they'd never heard of—gods that the Lord had not given to them.
往て己の識ずまた授らざる他の神々に事へてこれを拝みたるが故なり
27 That's why the Lord was so angry with this land, and he rained down on it every curse written in this book.
是をもてヱホバこの地にむかひて震怒を發しこの書にしるしたる諸の災禍をこれに下し
28 The Lord uprooted them from their country in his anger, rage, and fury, and he threw them out, leaving them in another land, where they are to this day.”
而してヱホバ震怒と忿恨と大なる憤怨をもて彼らをこの地より抜とりてこれを他の國に投やれりその状今日のごとし
29 The Lord our God has secrets that belong to him, but what has been revealed belong to us and to our descendants forever, so that we may follow everything in this law.
隠微たる事は我らの神ヱホバに屬する者なりまた顯露されたる事は我らと我らの子孫に屬し我らをしてこの律法の諸の言を行はしむる者なり
