< 1 Samuel 13 >

1 Saul reigned one year; and when he had reigned two years over Israel,
サウル三十歳にて王の位に即く彼二年イスラエルををさめたり
2 Saul chose him three thousand men of Israel; whereof two thousand were with Saul in Michmash and in mount Bethel, and a thousand were with Jonathan in Gibeah of Benjamin: and the rest of the people he sent every man to his tent.
爰にサウル、イスラエル人三千を擇む其二千はサウルとともにミクマシおよびベテルの山地にあり其一千はヨナタンとともにベニヤミンのギベアにあり其餘の民はサウルおのおの其幕屋にかへらしむ
3 And Jonathan smote the garrison of the Philistines that was in Geba, and the Philistines heard of it. And Saul blew the trumpet throughout all the land, saying, Let the Hebrews hear.
ヨナタン、ゲバにあるペリシテ人の代官をころせりペリシテ人之れをきく是においてサウル國中にあまねくラツパを吹ていはしめけるはヘブル人よ聞くべし
4 And all Israel heard say that Saul had smitten a garrison of the Philistines, and that Israel also was had in abomination with the Philistines. And the people were called together after Saul to Gilgal.
イスラエル人皆聞けるに云くサウル、ペリシテ人の代官を撃りしかしてイスラエル、ペリシテ人の中に惡まると斯て民めされてサウルにしたがひギルガルにいたる
5 And the Philistines gathered themselves together to fight with Israel, thirty thousand chariots, and six thousand horsemen, and people as the sand which is on the sea shore in multitude: and they came up, and pitched in Michmash, eastward from Beth-aven.
ペリシテ人イスラエルと戰はんとて集りけるが兵車三百騎兵六千にして民は濱の沙の多きがごとくなりき彼らのぼりてベテアベンにむかへるミクマシに陣をとれり
6 When the men of Israel saw that they were in a strait, (for the people were distressed, ) then the people did hide themselves in caves, and in thickets, and in rocks, and in high places, and in pits.
イスラエルの人苦められ其危きを見て皆巖穴に林叢に崗巒に高塔に坎阱にかくれたり
7 And some of the Hebrews went over Jordan to the land of Gad and Gilead. As for Saul, he was yet in Gilgal, and all the people followed him trembling.
また或るヘブル人はヨルダンを渉りてガドとギレアデの地にいたる然るにサウルは尚ギルガルにあり民皆戰慄て之にしたがふ
8 And he tarried seven days, according to the set time that Samuel had appointed: but Samuel came not to Gilgal; and the people were scattered from him.
サウル、サムエルの定めし期にしたがひて七日とどまりしがサムエル、ギルガルに來らず民はなれて散ければ
9 And Saul said, Bring hither a burnt offering to me, and peace offerings. And he offered the burnt offering.
サウルいひけるは燔祭と酬恩祭を我にもちきたれと遂に燔祭をささげたり
10 And it came to pass, that as soon as he had made an end of offering the burnt offering, behold, Samuel came; and Saul went out to meet him, that he might salute him.
燔祭をささぐることを終しときに視よサムエルいたるサウル安否を問はんとてこれをいで迎ふに
11 And Samuel said, What hast thou done? And Saul said, Because I saw that the people were scattered from me, and that thou camest not within the days appointed, and that the Philistines gathered themselves together at Michmash;
サムエルいひけるは汝何をなせしやサウルいひけるは我民の我をはなれてちりまた汝の定まれる日のうちに來らずしてペリシテ人のミクマシに集まれるを見しかば
12 Therefore said I, The Philistines will come down now upon me to Gilgal, and I have not made supplication unto YHWH: I forced myself therefore, and offered a burnt offering.
ペリシテ人ギルガルに下りて我をおそはんに我いまだヱホバをなごめずといひて勉て燔祭をささげたり
13 And Samuel said to Saul, Thou hast done foolishly: thou hast not kept the commandment of YHWH thy Elohim, which he commanded thee: for now would YHWH have established thy kingdom upon Israel for ever.
サムエル、サウルにいひけるは汝おろかなることをなせり汝その神ヱホバのなんぢに命じたまひし命令を守らざりしなり若し守りしならばヱホバ、イスラエルををさむる位を永く汝に定めたまひしならん
14 But now thy kingdom shall not continue: YHWH hath sought him a man after his own heart, and YHWH hath commanded him to be captain over his people, because thou hast not kept that which YHWH commanded thee.
然どもいま汝の位たもたざるべしヱホバ其心に適ふ人を求めてヱホバ之に其民の長を命じたまへり汝がヱホバの命ぜしことを守らざるによる
15 And Samuel arose, and got him up from Gilgal unto Gibeah of Benjamin. And Saul numbered the people that were present with him, about six hundred men.
かくてサムエルたちてギルガルよりベニヤミンのギベアにのぼりいたる
16 And Saul, and Jonathan his son, and the people that were present with them, abode in Gibeah of Benjamin: but the Philistines encamped in Michmash.
サウルおのれとともにある民をかぞふるに凡そ六百人ありき
17 And the spoilers came out of the camp of the Philistines in three companies: one company turned unto the way that leadeth to Ophrah, unto the land of Shual:
サウルおよび其子ヨナタン並にこれとともにある民はベニヤミンのゲバに居りペリシテ人はミクマシに陣を張る
18 A nd anot her company turned the way to Beth-horon: and another company turned to the way of the border that looketh to the valley of Zeboim toward the wilderness.
劫掠人三隊にわかれてペリシテ人の陣よりいで一隊はオフラの路にむかひてシユアルの地にいたり
19 Now there was no smith found throughout all the land of Israel: for the Philistines said, Lest the Hebrews make them swords or spears:
一隊はベテホロンの道に向ひ一隊は曠野の方にあるゼボイムの谷をのぞむ境の路にむかふ
20 But all the Israelites went down to the Philistines, to sharpen every man his share, and his coulter, and his axe, and his mattock.
時にイスラエルの地のうち何處にも鐵工なかりき是はペリシテ人ヘブル人の劍あるひは槍を作ることを恐れたればなり
21 Yet they had a file for the mattocks, and for the coulters, and for the forks, and for the axes, and to sharpen the goads.
イスラエル人皆其耜鋤斧耒即ち耜鋤三歯鍬斧の錣に缺ありてこれを鍛ひ改さんとする時又は鞭を尖らさんとする時は常にペリシテ人の所にくだれり
22 So it came to pass in the day of battle, that there was neither sword nor spear found in the hand of any of the people that were with Saul and Jonathan: but with Saul and with Jonathan his son was there found.
是をもて戰の日にサウルおよびヨナタンとともにある民の手には劍も槍も見えず只サウルと其子ヨナクンのみ持り
23 And the garrison of the Philistines went out to the passage of Michmash.
茲にペリシテ人の先陣ミクマシの渡口に進む
