< Kings I 23 >
1 And it was told David, saying, behold, the Philistines war in Keila, and they rob, they trample on the threshing-floors.
人々ダビデにつげていひけるは視よペリシテ人ケイラを攻め穀場を掠むと
2 And David enquired of the Lord, saying, Shall I go and strike these Philistines? And the Lord said, Go, and you shall strike these Philistines, and shall save Keila.
ダビデ、ヱホバに問ていひけるは我ゆきて是のペリシテ人を撃つべきかとヱホバ、ダビデにいひたまひけるは往てペリシテ人をうちてケイラを救ヘ
3 And the men of David said to him, Behold, we are afraid here in Judea; and how shall it be if we go to Keila? Shall we go after the spoils of the Philistines?
ダビデの從者かれにいひけるは視よわれら此にユダにあるすら尚ほおそる况やケイラにゆきてペリシテ人の軍にあたるをやと
4 And David enquired yet again of the Lord; and the Lord answered him, and said to him, Arise and go down to Keila, for I will deliver the Philistines into your hands.
ダビデふたたびヱホバに問ひけるにヱホバ答ていひたまひけるは起てケイラにくだれ我ペリシテ人を汝の手にわたすべし
5 So David and his men with him went to Keila, and fought with the Philistines; and they fled from before him, and he carried off their cattle, and struck them with a great slaughter, and David rescued the inhabitants of Keila.
ダビデとその從者ケイラにゆきてペリシテ人とたたかひ彼らの家畜を奪ひとり大にかれらをうちころせりかくダビデ、ケイラの居民をすくふ
6 And it came to pass when Abiathar the son of Achimelech fled to David, that he went down with David to Keila, having and ephod in his hand.
アヒメレクの子アビヤタル、ケイラにのがれてダビデにいたれる時其手にエポデを執てくだれり
7 And it was told Saul that David was come to Keila: and Saul said, God has sold him into my hands, for he is shut up, having entered into a city that has gates and bars.
爰にダビデのケイラに至れる事サウルに聞えければサウルいふ神かれを我手にわたしたまへり其はかれ門あり關ある邑にいりたれば閉こめらるればなり
8 And Saul charged all the people to go down to war to Keila, to besiege David and his men.
サウルすなはち民をことごとく軍によびあつめてケイラにくだりてダビデと其從者を圍んとす
9 And David knew that Saul spoke openly of mischief against him: and David said to Abiathar the priest, Bring the ephod of the Lord.
ダビデはサウルのおのれを害せんと謀るを知りて祭司アビヤタルにいひけるはエポデを持ちきたれと
10 And David said, Lord God of Israel, your servant has indeed heard, that Saul seeks to come against Keila to destroy the city on my account.
しかしてダビデいひけるはイスラエルの神ヱホバよ僕たしかにサウルがケイラにきたりてわがために此邑をほろぼさんと求むるを聞り
11 Will [the place] be shut up? And now will Saul come down, as your servant has heard? Lord God of Israel, tell your servant.
ケイラの人々我をかれの手にわたすならんか僕のきけるごとくサウル下るならんかイスラエルの神ヱホバよ請ふ僕につげたまへとヱホバいひたまひけるは彼下るべしと
12 And the Lord said, It will be shut up.
ダビデいひけるはケイラの人々われとわが從者をサウルの手にわたすならんかヱホバいひたまひけるは彼らわたすべし
13 And David arose, and the men with him, in number about four hundred, and they went forth from Keila, and went wherever they could go: and it was told Saul that David had escaped from Keila, and he forbore to come.
是においてダビデと其六百人ばかりの從者起てケイラをいで其ゆきうる所にゆけりダビデのケイラをにげはなれしことサウルに聞えければサウルいづることを止たり
14 And he lived in Maserem in the wilderness, in the narrow [passes]; and lived in the wilderness in mount Ziph, in the dry country. And Saul sought him continually, but the Lord delivered him not into his hands.
ダビデは曠野にをり要害の地にをりまたジフの野にある山に居るサウル恒にかれを尋ねたれども神かれを其手にわたしたまはざりき
15 And David perceived that Saul went forth to seek David; and David was in the dry mountain in the New Ziph.
ダビデ、サウルがおのれの生命を求めんために出たるを見る時にダビデはジフの野の叢林にをりしが
16 And Jonathan son of Saul rose, and went to David to Caene, and strengthened his hands in the Lord.
サウルの子ヨナタンたちて叢林にいりてダビデにいたり神によりて其力を強うせしめたり
17 And he said to him, Fear not, for the hand of Saul my father shall not find you; and you shall be king over Israel, and I shall be second to you; and Saul my father knows it.
即ちヨナタンかれにいひけるに懼るるなかれわが父サウルの手汝にとどくことあらじ汝はイスラエルの王とならん我は汝の次なるべし此事はわが父サウルもしれりと
18 So they both made a covenant before the Lord; and David lived in Caene, and Jonathan went to his home.
かくて彼ら二人ヱホバのまへに契約をむすびダビデは叢林にとどまりヨナタンは其家にかへれり
19 And the Ziphites came up out of the dry country to Saul to the hill, saying, Behold, is not David hidden with us in Messara, in the narrows in Caene in the hill of Echela, which is on the right of Jessaemon?
時にジフ人ギベアにのぼりサウルの許にいたりていひけるはダビデは曠野の南にあるハキラの山の叢林の中なる要害に隱れて我らとともにをるにあらずや
20 And now [according to] all the king's desire to come down, let him come down to us; they have shut him up into the hands of the king.
今王汝のくだらんとする望のごとく下りたまへ我らはかれを王の手にわたさんと
21 And Saul said to them, Blessed [be] you of the Lord, for you have been grieved on my account.
サウルいひけるは汝ら我をあはれめば願くは汝等ヱホバより福祉をえよ
22 Go, I pray you, and make preparations yet, and notice his place where his foot shall be, quickly, in that place which you spoke of, lest by any means he should deal craftily.
請ふゆきて尚ほ心を用ひ彼の踪跡ある處と誰がかれを見たるかを見きはめよ其は人我にかれが甚だ機巧く事を爲すを告たれば也
23 Take notice, then, and learn, and I will go with you; and it shall come to pass that if he is in the land, I will search him out among all the thousands of Juda.
されば汝ら彼が隱るる逃躱處を皆たしかに見きはめて再び我にきたれ我汝らとともにゆかん彼もし其地にあらば我ユダの郡中をあまねく尋ねて彼を獲んと
24 And the Ziphites arose, and went before Saul: and David and his men [were] in the wilderness of Maon, westward, to the right of Jessaemon.
かれらたちてサウルに先てジフにゆけりダビデと其從者は曠野の南のアラバにあるマオンの野にをる
25 And Saul and his men went to seek him: and they brought word to David, and he went down to the rock that was in the wilderness of Maon: and Saul heard, and followed after David to the wilderness of Maon.
斯てサウルと其從者ゆきて彼を尋ぬ人々これをダビデに告ければダビデ巌を下てマオンの野にをるサウル之を聞てマオンの野に至てダビデを追ふ
26 And Saul and his men go on one side of the mountain, and David and his men are on the other side of the mountain: and David was hiding himself to escape from Saul: and Saul and his men encamped against David and his men, in order to take them.
サウルは山の此旁に行ダビデと其從者は山の彼旁に行ダビデは周章てサウルの前を避んとしサウルと其從者はダビデと其從者を圍んで之を取んとす
27 And there came a messenger to Saul, saying, Haste you, and come here, for the Philistines have invaded the land.
時に使者サウルに來て言けるはペリシテ人國ををかす急ぎきたりたまへと
28 So Saul returned from following after David, and went to meet the Philistines: therefore that place was called The divided Rock.
故にサウル、ダビデを追ことを止てかへり往てペリシテ人にあたるここをもて人々その處をセラマレコテ(逃岩)となづく
29 And David rose up from thence, and lived in the narrow passes of Engaddi.
ダビデ其處よりのぼりてエンゲデの要害にをる
