< Judges 13 >
1 Bvt the children of Israel continued to commit wickednesse in the sight of the Lord, and the Lord deliuerd them into the handes of the Philistims fourtie yeere.
イスラエルの子孫またヱホバのまへにて惡を行ひしかばヱホバこれを四十年の間ペリシテ人の手にわたしたまへり
2 Then there was a man in Zorah of the familie of the Danites, named Manoah, whose wife was baren, and bare not.
ここにダン人の族にて名をマノアとよべるゾラ人あり其の妻は石婦にして子を生みしことなし
3 And the Angel of the Lord appeared vnto the woman, and said vnto her, Beholde nowe, thou art baren, and bearest not: but thou shalt conceiue, and beare a sonne.
ヱホバの使その女に現れて之にいひけるは汝は石婦にして子を生しことあらず然ど汝孕みて子をうまん
4 And nowe therefore beware that thou drinke no wine, nor strong drinke, neither eate any vncleane thing.
されば汝つつしみて葡萄酒および濃き酒を飮むことなかれまたすべて穢たるものを食ふなかれ
5 For loe, thou shalt conceiue and beare a sonne, and no rasor shall come on his head: for the childe shall be a Nazarite vnto God from his birth: and he shall begin to saue Israel out of the handes of the Philistims.
視よ汝孕みて子を産ん其の頭には剃刀をあつべからずその兒は胎を出るよりして神のナザレ人[神に身を獻げし者]たるべし彼ペリシテ人の手よりイスラエルを拯ひ始めんと
6 Then the wife came, and tolde her husband, saying, A man of God came vnto me, and the facion of him was like the facion of the Angel of God exceeding feareful, but I asked him not whence he was, neither told he me his name,
その婦人來りて夫に告て曰けるは神の人我にのぞめりその容貌は神の使の容貌のごとくにして甚おそろしかりしが我其のいづれより來れるやを問ず彼また其の名を我に告ざりき
7 But he saide vnto me, Beholde, thou shalt conceiue, and beare a sonne, and nowe thou shalt drinke no wine, nor strong drinke, neither eate any vncleane thing: for the childe shalbe a Nazarite to God from his birth to the day of his death.
彼我にいひけるは視よ汝孕みて子を産まん然ば葡萄酒および濃き酒を飮むなかれまたすべてけがれたるものを食ふなかれその兒は胎を出るより其の死る日まで神のナザレ人たるべしと
8 Then Manoah prayed to the Lord and saide, I pray thee, my Lord, Let the man of God, whome thou sentest, come againe nowe vnto vs, and teach vs what we shall doe vnto the child when he is borne.
マノア、ヱホバにこひ求めていひけるはああわが主よ汝がさきに遣はしたまひし神の人をふたたび我らにのぞませ之をして我らがその産るる兒になすべき事を教へしめたまへ
9 And God heard the voyce of Manoah, and the Angel of God came againe vnto the wife, as she sate in the fielde, but Manoah her husband was not with her.
神マノアの聲をききいれたまひて神の使者婦人の田野に坐しをる時に復之にのぞめり時に夫マノアは共にをらざりき
10 And the wife made haste and ranne, and shewed her husband and sayde vnto him, Behold, the man hath appeared vnto me, that came vnto me to day.
是において婦いそぎ走りて夫の告て之にいひけるは先頃我にのぞみし人また我に現はれたりと
11 And Manoah arose and went after his wife, and came to the man, and saide vnto him, Art thou the man that spakest vnto the woman? and he said, Yea.
マノアすなはち起て妻のあとに付て行き其人のもとに至りて之に汝はかつて此婦に語言し人なるかといふに然りとこたふ
12 Then Manoah sayde, Nowe let thy saying come to passe: but howe shall we order the childe and doe vnto him?
マノアいひけるは汝の言のごとく成ん時は其兒の養育方および之になすべき事は如何
13 And the Angell of the Lord saide vnto Manoah, The woman must beware of all that I said vnto her.
ヱホバの使者マノアにいひけるはわがさきに婦に言しところのことどもは婦之をつつしむべきなり
14 She may eate of nothing that commeth of the vinetree: she shall not drinke wine nor strong drinke, nor eate any vncleane thing: let her obserue all that I haue commanded her.
すなはち葡萄樹よりいづる者は凡て食ふべからず葡萄酒と濃き酒を飮ずまたすべて穢たるものを食ふべからずすべてわが彼に命じたることどもを彼守るべきなり
15 Manoah then said vnto the Angell of the Lord, I pray thee, let vs reteine thee, vntill we haue made readie a kid for thee.
マノア、ヱホバの使者にいひけるは請我らをして汝を款留しめ汝のまへに山羊羔を備へしめよ
16 And the Angel of the Lord said vnto Manoah, Though thou make me abide, I will not eate of thy bread, and if thou wilt make a burnt offring, offer it vnto the Lord: for Manoah knewe not that it was an Angel of the Lord.
ヱホバの使者マノアにいひける汝我を款留るも我は汝の食物をくらはじまた汝燔祭をそなへんとならばヱホバにこれをそなふべしとマノアは彼がヱホバの使者なるを知ざりしなり
17 Againe Manoah said vnto the Angell of the Lord, What is thy name, that when thy saying is come to passe, we may honour thee?
マノア、ヱホバの使者にいひけるは汝の名はなにぞ汝の言の効驗あらんときは我ら汝を崇ん
18 And the Angell of the Lord saide vnto him, Why askest thou thus after my name, which is secret?
ヱホバの使者之にいひけるは我が名は不思議なり汝何故に之をたづぬるやと
19 Then Manoah tooke a kid with a meate offering, and offered it vpon a stone vnto the Lord: and the Angell did wonderously, whiles Manoah and his wife looked on.
マノア山羊羔と素祭物とをとり磐のうへにて之をヱホバにささぐ使者すなはち不思議なる事をなせりマノアとその妻之を視る
20 For when the flame came vp toward heauen from the altar, the Angel of the Lord ascended vp in the flame of the altar, and Manoah and his wife behelde it, and fell on their faces vnto the grounde.
すなはち火燄壇より天にあがれるときヱホバの使者壇の火燄のうちにありて昇れりマノアと其の妻これを視をりて地にひれふせり
21 (So the Angel of the Lord did no more appeare vnto Manoah and his wife.) Then Manoah knewe that it was an Angel of the Lord.
ヱホバの使者そののち重ねてマノアと其の妻に現はれざりきマノアつひに彼がヱホバの使者たりしを暁れり
22 And Manoah said vnto his wife, We shall surely dye, because we haue seene God.
茲にマノアその妻にむかひ我ら神を視たれば必ず死ぬるならんといふに
23 But his wife saide vnto him, If the Lord woulde kill vs, he woulde not haue receiued a burnt offring, and a meate offring of our hands, neither would he haue shewed vs all these things, nor would now haue tolde vs any such.
其の妻之にいひけるはヱホバもし我らを殺さんとおもひたまはばわれらの手より燔祭及び素祭をうけたまはざりしならんまたこれらの諸のことを我らに示すことをなしこたびのごとく我らに斯ることを告たまはざりしなるべしと
24 And the wife bare a sonne, and called his name Samson: and the childe grewe, and the Lord blessed him.
かくて婦子を産てその名をサムソンと呼べりその子育ち行くヱホバこれを惠みたまふ
25 And the Spirite of the Lord beganne to strengthen him in the host of Dan, betweene Zorah, and Eshtaol.
ヱホバの靈ゾラとエシタオルのあひだなるマハネダンにて始て感動す
