1 Samuel 12
1 And Samuel said unto all Israel, Behold, I have hearkened unto your voice in all that ye said unto me, and have made a king over you.
サムエル、イスラエルの人々にいひけるは視よ我汝らが我にいひし言をことごとく聽て汝らに王を立たり
2 And now, behold, the king walketh before you: and I am old and grayheaded; and, behold, my sons are with you: and I have walked before you from my childhood unto this day.
見よ今王汝らのまへにあゆむ我は老て髮しろし視よわが子ども汝らと共にあり我幼稚時より今日にいたるまで汝等のまへにあゆめり
3 Behold, here I am: witness against me before YHWH, and before his anointed: whose ox have I taken? or whose ass have I taken? or whom have I defrauded? whom have I oppressed? or of whose hand have I received any bribe to blind mine eyes therewith? and I will restore it you.
視よ我ここにありヱホバのまへと其膏そそぎし者のまへに我を訴へよ我誰の牛を取りしや誰の驢馬をとりしや誰を掠めしや誰を虐遇しや誰の手より賄賂をとりてわが目を矇せしや有ば我これを汝らにかへさん
4 And they said, Thou hast not defrauded us, nor oppressed us, neither hast thou taken ought of any man's hand.
彼らいひけるは汝は我らをかすめずくるしめず又何をも人の手より取りしことなし
5 And he said unto them, YHWH is witness against you, and his anointed is witness this day, that ye have not found ought in my hand. And they answered, He is witness.
サムエルかれらにいひけるは汝らが我手のうちに何をも見いださざるをヱホバ汝らに證したまふ其膏そそぎし者も今日證す彼ら答へけるは證したまふ
6 And Samuel said unto the people, It is YHWH that advanced Moses and Aaron, and that brought your fathers up out of the land of Egypt.
サムエル民にいひけるはヱホバはモーセとアロンをたてし者汝らの先祖をエジプトの地より導きいだせしものなり
7 Now therefore stand still, that I may reason with you before YHWH of all the righteous acts of YHWH, which he did to you and to your fathers.
立ちあがれヱホバが汝らおよび汝らの先祖になしたまひし諸の義しき行爲につきて我ヱホバのまへに汝らと論ぜん
8 When Jacob was come into Egypt, and your fathers cried unto YHWH, then YHWH sent Moses and Aaron, which brought forth your fathers out of Egypt, and made them dwell in this place.
ヤコブのエジプトにいたるにおよびて汝らの先祖のヱホバに呼はりし時ヱホバ、モーセとアロンを遣はしたまひて此二人汝らの先祖をエジプトより導きいだして此處にすましめたり
9 And when they forgat YHWH their Elohim, he sold them into the hand of Sisera, captain of the host of Hazor, and into the hand of the Philistines, and into the hand of the king of Moab, and they fought against them.
しかるに彼ら其神ヱホバを忘れしかばヱホバこれをハゾルの軍の長シセラの手とペリシテ人の手およびモアブ王の手にわたしたまへり斯て彼らこれを攻ければ
10 And they cried unto YHWH, and said, We have sinned, because we have forsaken YHWH, and have served Baalim and Ashtaroth: but now deliver us out of the hand of our enemies, and we will serve thee.
民ヱホバに呼はりていひけるは我らヱホバを棄てバアルとアシタロテに事へてヱホバに罪を犯したりされど今我らを敵の手より救ひいだしたまへ我ら汝につかへんと
11 And YHWH sent Jerubbaal, and Bedan, and Jephthah, and Samuel, and delivered you out of the hand of your enemies on every side, and ye dwelled safe.
是においてヱホバ、ヱルバアルとバラクとエフタとサムエルを遣はして汝らを四方の敵の手より救ひいだしたまひて汝ら安らかに住めり
12 And when ye saw that Nahash the king of the children of Ammon came against you, ye said unto me, Nay; but a king shall reign over us: when YHWH your Elohim was your king.
しかるに汝らアンモンの子孫の王ナハシの汝らを攻んとて來るを見て汝らの神ヱホバ汝らの王なるに汝ら我にいふ否我らををさむる王なかるべからずと
13 Now therefore behold the king whom ye have chosen, and whom ye have desired! and, behold, YHWH hath set a king over you.
今汝らが選みし王汝らがねがひし王を見よ視よヱホバ汝らに王をたてたまへり
14 If ye will fear YHWH, and serve him, and obey his voice, and not rebel against the commandment of YHWH, then shall both ye and also the king that reigneth over you continue following YHWH your Elohim:
汝らもしヱホバを畏みて之につかへ其言にしたがひてヱホバの命にそむかずまた汝らと汝らををさむる王恒に汝らの神ヱホバに從はば善し
15 But if ye will not obey the voice of YHWH, but rebel against the commandment of YHWH, then shall the hand of YHWH be against you, as it was against your fathers.
しかれども汝らもしヱホバの言にしたがはずしてヱホバの命にそむかばヱホバの手汝らの先祖をせめしごとく汝らをせむべし
16 Now therefore stand and see this great thing, which YHWH will do before your eyes.
汝ら今たちてヱホバが爾らの目のまへになしたまふ此大なる事を見よ
17 Is it not wheat harvest to day? I will call unto YHWH, and he shall send thunder and rain; that ye may perceive and see that your wickedness is great, which ye have done in the sight of YHWH, in asking you a king.
今日は麥刈時にあらずや我ヱホバを呼んヱホバ雷と雨をくだして汝らが王をもとめてヱホバのまへに爲したる罪の大なるを見しらしめたまはん
18 So Samuel called unto YHWH; and YHWH sent thunder and rain that day: and all the people greatly feared YHWH and Samuel.
かくてサムエル、ヱホバをよびければヱホバ其日雷と雨をくだしたまへり民みな大にヱホバとサムエルを恐る
19 And all the people said unto Samuel, Pray for thy servants unto YHWH thy Elohim, that we die not: for we have added unto all our sins this evil, to ask us a king.
民みなサムエルにいひけるは僕らのために汝の神ヱホバにいのりて我らを死なざらしめよ我ら諸の罪にまた王を求むるの惡をくはへたればなり
20 And Samuel said unto the people, Fear not: ye have done all this wickedness: yet turn not aside from following YHWH, but serve YHWH with all your heart;
サムエル民にいひけるは懼るなかれ汝らこの總ての惡をなしたりされどヱホバに從ふことを息ず心をつくしてヱホバに事へ
21 And turn ye not aside: for then should ye go after vain things, which cannot profit nor deliver; for they are vain.
虚しき物に迷ひゆくなかれ是は虚しき物なれば汝らを助くることも救ふことも得ざるなり
22 For YHWH will not forsake his people for his great name's sake: because it hath pleased YHWH to make you his people.
ヱホバ其大なる名のために此民をすてたまはざるべし其はヱホバ汝らをおのれの民となすことを善としたまへばなり
23 Moreover as for me, Elohim forbid that I should sin against YHWH in ceasing to pray for you: but I will teach you the good and the right way:
また我は汝らのために祈ることをやめてヱホバに罪ををかすことは決てせざるべし且われ善き正しき道をもて汝らををしへん
24 Only fear YHWH, and serve him in truth with all your heart: for consider how great things he hath done for you.
汝ら只ヱホバをかしこみ心をつくして誠にこれにつかへよ而して如何に大なることをヱホバ汝らになしたまひしかを思ふ可し
25 But if ye shall still do wickedly, ye shall be consumed, both ye and your king.
しかれども汝らもしなほ惡をなさば汝らと汝らの王ともにほろぼさるべし
