2 Samuel 24
1 And again was the anger of the Lord kindled against Israel, and he incited David against them to say, Go, number Israel and Judah.
ヱホバ復イスラエルにむかひて怒を發しダビデを感動して彼等に敵對しめ往てイスラエルとユダを數へよと言しめたまふ
2 And the king said to Joab the captain of the army, who was with him, Traverse, I pray thee, all the tribes of Israel, from Dan even to Beer-sheba', and number ye the people, that I may know the number of the people.
王乃ちヨアブおよびヨアブとともにある軍長等にいひけるは請ふイスラエルの諸の支派の中をダンよりベエルシバに至るまで行めぐりて民を核べ我をして民の數を知しめよ
3 Then said Joab unto the king, Now may the Lord thy God add unto the people, how many soever they be, a hundred-fold more, and may the eyes of my Lord the king see it; but why doth my Lord the king find delight in this thing?
ヨアブ王にいひけるは幾何あるともねがはくは汝の神ヱホバ民を百倍に増たまへ而して王わが主の目それを視るにいたれ然りといへども王わが主の此事を悦びたまふは何故ぞやと
4 Nevertheless the king's word remained firm against Joab, and against the captains of the army: and Joab and the captains of the army went out from the presence of the king, to number the people of Israel.
されど王の言ヨアブと軍長等に勝ければヨアブと軍長等王の前を退きてイスラエルの民を核べに往り
5 And they passed over the Jordan, and encamped in 'Aro'er, on the right side of the city that lieth in the midst of the valley of Gad, and toward Ya'zer:
かれらヨルダンを濟りアロエルより即ち河の中の邑より始めてガドにいたりヤゼルにいたり
6 Then they came to Gil'ad, and to the land of Tachtimchodshi; and they came to Dan-ya'an, and about to Zidon;
ギレアデにいたりタテムホデシの地にいたり又ダニヤンにいたりてシドンに旋り
7 And they came to the strong-hold of Tyre, and to all the cities of the Hivites, and of the Canaanites; and they went out to the south of Judah, up to Beer-sheba'.
またツロの城にいたりヒビ人とカナン人の諸の邑にいたりユダの南に出てベエルシバにいたれり
8 And so they traversed all the land, and they came at the end of nine months and twenty days to Jerusalem.
彼等國を徧く行めぐり九月と廿日を經てルサレムに至りぬ
9 And Joab gave up the sum of the number of the people unto the king: and there were in Israel eight hundred thousand valiant men that drew the sword; and the men of Judah were five hundred thousand men.
ヨアブ人口の數を王に告たり即ちイスラエルに劍を抜く壯士八十萬ありき又ユダの人は五十萬ありき
10 And David's heart smote him after that he had numbered the people. And David said unto the Lord, I have sinned greatly in what I have done; and now, I beseech thee, O Lord, cause the iniquity of thy servant to pass away; for I have acted very foolishly.
ダビデ民の數を書し後其心自ら責む是においてダビデ、ヱホバにいふ我これを爲して大に罪を犯したりねがはくはヱホバよ僕の罪を除きたまへ我甚だ愚なる事を爲りと
11 And when David was arisen in the morning, The word of the Lord came unto Gad the prophet, David's seer, saying,
ダビデ朝興し時ヱホバの言ダビデの先見者なる預言者ガデに臨みて曰く
12 Go and speak unto David, Thus hath said the Lord, Three things do I offer thee: choose for thyself one of them, and I will do it unto thee.
往てダビデに言へヱホバ斯いふ我汝に三を示す汝其一を擇べ我其を汝に爲んと
13 So Gad came to David, and told it unto him; and he said unto him, Shall there come unto thee seven years of famine in thy land? or three months, that thou flee before thy enemies, while they pursue thee? or that there be for three days a pestilence in thy land? now consider and see what word I shall bring back to him that hath sent me.
ガデ、ダビデの許にいたりこれに告てこれにいひけるは汝の地に七年の饑饉いたらんか或は汝敵に追れて三月其前に遁んか或は爾の地に三日の疫病あらんか爾考へてわが如何なる答を我を遣はせし者に爲べきかを決めよ
14 And David said unto Gad, I am in a great strait: let us fall then into the hand of the Lord, —for his mercies are great; but let me not fall into the hand of man.
ダビデ、ガデにいひけるは我大に苦しむ請ふ我儕をしてヱホバの手に陷らしめよ其憐憫大なればなり我をして人の手に陷らしむるなかれ
15 And the Lord sent a pestilence in Israel from the morning even to the time appointed: and there died of the people from Dan even to Beer-sheba' seventy thousand men.
是においてヱホバ朝より集會の時まで疫病をイスラエルに降したまふダンよりベエルシバまでに民の死る者七萬人なり
16 And when the angel stretched out his hand over Jerusalem to destroy it, the Lord bethought himself of the evil, and said to the angel that destroyed among the people, It is enough: now stay thy hand. And the angel of the Lord was by the threshingfloor of Aravnah the Jebusite.
天の使其手をエルサレムに伸てこれを滅さんとしたりしがヱホバ此害惡を悔て民を滅す天使にいひたまひけるは足り今汝の手を住めよと時にヱホバの使はヱブス人アラウナの禾場の傍にあり
17 And David spoke unto the Lord when he saw the angel that smote among the people, and said, Lo, I have indeed sinned, and I have truly done wickedly; but these sheep, what have they done? let thy hand, I pray thee, be against me, and against my father's house.
ダビデ民を撃つ天使を見し時ヱホバに申していひけるは嗚呼我は罪を犯したり我は惡き事を爲たり然ども是等の羊群は何を爲たるや請ふ爾の手を我とわが父の家に對たまへと
18 And Gad came to David on that day, and said unto him, Go up, erect an altar unto the Lord on the threshing-floor of Aravnah the Jebusite.
此日ガデ、ダビデの所にいたりてかれにいひけるは上りてヱブス人アラウナの禾場にてヱホバに壇を建よ
19 And David went up, according to the word of Gad, as the Lord had commanded.
ダビデ、ガデの言に隨ひヱホバの命じたまひしごとくのぼれり
20 And Aravnah looked up, and saw the king and his servants coming on toward him: and Aravnah went out, and bowed himself before the king with his face to the ground.
アラウナ觀望て王と其臣僕の己の方に進み來るを見アラウナ出て王のまへに地に伏て拝せり
21 And Aravnah said, Wherefore is my Lord the king come to his servant? And David said, To buy from thee the threshingfloor, to build an altar unto the Lord, that the plague may be stayed from the people.
かくてアラウナいひけるは何に因てか王わが主僕の所にきませるやダビデひけるは汝より禾場を買ひとりヱホバに壇を築きて民に降る災をとどめんとてなり
22 And Aravnah said unto David, Let my Lord the king take and offer up what seemeth good in his eyes: behold, the oxen are here for burnt-offerings, and the threshing rollers and the harness of the oxen for wood.
アラウナ、ダビデにいひけるはねがはくは王わが主其目に善と見ゆるものを取て献げたまへ燔祭には牛あり薪には打禾車と牛の器ありと
23 All these things did Aravnah, [for] the king, give unto the king. And Aravnah said unto the king, May the Lord thy God receive thee favorably.
アラリナこれを悉く王に奉呈ぐアラウナ又王にねがはくは爾の神ヱホバ爾を受納たまはんことをといふ
24 And the king said unto Aravnah, No; but I will surely buy it from thee at the value; for I will not offer burnt-offerings unto the Lord my God without paying therefor. So David bought the threshing-floor and the oxen for fifty shekels of silver.
王アラウナにいひけるは斯すべからず我必ず値をはらひて爾より買とらん我費なしに燔祭をわが神ヱホバに献ぐることをせじとダビデ銀五十シケルにて禾場と牛を買とれり
25 And David built there an altar unto the Lord, and offered burnt-offerings and peace-offerings: and the Lord was entreated for the land, and the plague was stayed from Israel.
ダビデ其處にてヱホバに壇を築き燔祭と酬恩祭を献げたり是においてヱホバ其地のために祈祷を聽たまひて災のイスラエルに降ること止りぬ
