1 Chronicles 21
1 Then Satan stands up against Israel, and persuades David to number Israel,
茲にサタン起りてイスラエルに敵しダビデを感動してイスラエルを核數しめんとせり
2 and David says to Joab and to the heads of the people, “Go, number Israel from Beer-Sheba even to Dan, and bring [the account] to me, and I know their number.”
ダビデすなはちヨアブと民の牧伯等に言けるは汝等ゆきてベエルシバよりダンまでのイスラエル人を數へその數をとりきたりて我に知せよ
3 And Joab says, “YHWH adds to His people as they are one hundred times; are they not, my lord, O king, all of them for servants to my lord? Why does my lord seek this? Why is he for a cause of guilt to Israel?”
ヨアブ答へけるは幾何あるとも願くはヱホバその民を百倍に増たまへ然ながら王わが主よ是はみな我主の僕ならずや然に何とて我主この事を爲んと要たまふや何ぞイスラエルをして之によりて罪を獲せしむべけんやと
4 And the word of the king [is] severe against Joab, and Joab goes out, and goes up and down in all Israel, and comes to Jerusalem.
されど王つひにヨアブに言勝たればヨアブすなはち出ゆきイスラエルを徧く行めぐりてヱルサレムに還れり
5 And Joab gives the account of the numbering of the people to David, and all Israel is one million and one hundred thousand, each drawing sword, and Judah [is] four hundred and seventy thousand, each drawing sword.
而してヨアブ民の總數をダビデに告たり即ちイスラエルの中には劍を帶る者一百十萬人ありユダの中には劍を帶る者四十七萬人ありき
6 And he has not numbered Levi and Benjamin in their midst, for the word of the king was abominable with Joab.
但しレビとベニヤミンとはその中に數へざりき其はヨアブ王の言を惡みたればなり
7 And it is evil in the eyes of God concerning this thing, and He strikes Israel,
この事神の目に惡かりければイスラエルを撃なやましたまへり
8 and David says to God, “I have sinned exceedingly in that I have done this thing; and now, please cause the iniquity of Your servant to pass away, for I have acted very foolishly.”
ダビデ是において神に申しけるは我この事をなして大に罪を獲たり然ども今ねがはくは僕の罪を除きたまへ我はなはだ愚なる事をなせりと
9 And YHWH speaks to Gad, seer of David, saying,
時にヱホバ、ダビデの先見者ガデにきて言たまひけるは
10 “Go, and you have spoken to David, saying, Thus said YHWH: I am extending three [choices] to you; choose one of these for yourself, and I do [it] to you.”
往てダビデに告て言へヱホバかく言ふ我なんぢに三のものを示す汝その一を撰べ我それを汝に爲んと
11 And Gad comes to David and says to him, “Thus said YHWH: Take for yourself—
ガデすなはちダビデの許に至り之に言けるはヱホバかく言たまふ汝擇べよ
12 either famine for three years, or three months to be consumed from the face of your adversaries (even [for] the sword of your enemies to overtake), or three days of the sword of YHWH (even pestilence in the land, and a messenger of YHWH destroying in all the border of Israel); and now, see; what word do I return to Him who is sending me?”
即ち三年の饑饉か又は汝三月の間汝の敵の前に敗れて汝の仇の劍に追しかれんか又は三日の間ヱホバの劍すなはち疫病この國にありてヱホバの使者イスラエルの四方の境の中にて撃滅ぼすことをせんか我が如何なる答を我を遣せし者に爲べきかを汝決めよ
13 And David says to Gad, “I am greatly distressed, please let me fall into the hand of YHWH, for His mercies [are] very many, and do not let me fall into the hand of man.”
ダビデ、ガデに言けるは我おほいに苦む請ふ我はヱホバの手に陷らん其憐憫甚だおほいなればなり人の手には陷らじと
14 And YHWH gives a pestilence in Israel, and there falls from Israel seventy thousand men,
是においてヱホバ、イスラエルに疫病を降したまひければイスラエルの人七萬人斃れたり
15 and God sends a messenger to Jerusalem to destroy it, and as he is destroying, YHWH has seen, and is comforted concerning the calamity, and says to the messenger who [is] destroying, “Enough now, cease your hand.” And the messenger of YHWH is standing by the threshing-floor of Ornan the Jebusite,
神また使者をヱルサレムに遣してこれを滅ぼさんとしたまひしが其これを滅ぼすにあたりてヱホバ視てこの禍害をなせしを悔い其ほろぼす使者に言たまひけるは足り今なんぢの手を住めよと時にヱホバの使者はヱブス人オルナンの打場の傍に立をる
16 and David lifts up his eyes, and sees the messenger of YHWH standing between the earth and the heavens, and his sword [is] drawn in his hand, stretched out over Jerusalem, and David falls, and the elderly, covered with sackcloth, on their faces.
ダビデ目をあげて視るにヱホバの使者地と天の間に立て抜身の劍を手にとりてヱルサレムの方にこれを伸をりければダビデと長老等麻布を衣て俯伏り
17 And David says to God, “Did I not command to number the people? Indeed, it [is] I who have sinned, and done great evil: and these, the flock, what did they do? O YHWH, my God, please let Your hand be on me, and on the house of my father, and not on Your people—to be plagued.”
而してダビデ神に申しけるは民を數へよと命ぜし者は我ならずや罪を犯し惡き事をなしたる者は我なり然れども是等の羊は何をなせしや我神ヱホバよ請ふ汝の手を我とわが父の家に加へたまへ惟汝の民に加へて之を疚めたまふ勿れと
18 And the messenger of YHWH commanded to Gad to say to David, “Surely David goes up to raise an altar to YHWH in the threshing-floor of Ornan the Jebusite.”
時にヱホバの使者ガデに命じ汝ダビデに告てダビデをして上りゆきてヱブス人オルナンの打場にてヱホバのために一箇の壇を築しめよと言り
19 And David goes up by the word of Gad, that he spoke in the Name of YHWH.
是においてダビデはガデがヱホバの名をもて告たる言にしたがひて上りゆけり
20 And Ornan turns back and sees the messenger, and his four sons [are] with him hiding themselves, and Ornan is threshing wheat.
オルナンは麥を打ゐけるが回顧て天の使の居るを視その四人の子等とともに匿れたり
21 And David comes to Ornan, and Ornan looks attentively and sees David, and goes out from the threshing-floor, and bows himself to David—face to the earth.
やがてダビデはオルナンの方に來りけるがオルナン望てダビデを見すなはち打場より出ゆきて面を地につけてダビデを拝せり
22 And David says to Ornan, “Give the place of the threshing-floor to me, and I build an altar to YHWH in it; give it to me for full price, and the plague is restrained from the people.”
ダビデ、オルナンに言けるは此打場の處を我に與へよ我そこにてヱホバに一箇の壇を築かん汝その十分の値をとりて之を我にあたへ災害の民におよぶことを止めしめよ
23 And Ornan says to David, “Take [it] to yourself, and my lord the king does that which is good in his eyes; see, I have given the oxen for burnt-offerings, and the threshing instruments for wood, and the wheat for a present; I have given the whole.”
オルナン、ダビデに言けるは請ふ之を取り王わが主の目に善と觀るところを爲たまへ我なんぢに献げて牛を燔祭の料とし打禾車を柴薪とし麥を素祭とせん我みなこれを奉呈ると
24 And King David says to Ornan, “No, for I surely buy [it] for full price; for I do not lift up that which is yours to YHWH, so as to offer a burnt-offering without cost.”
ダビデ王オルナンに言けるは然るべからず我かならず十分の値をはらひて之を買ん我は汝の物を取てヱホバに奉まつらじ又費なしに燔祭を献ぐることをせじと
25 And David gives to Ornan six hundred shekels of gold [in] weight for the place;
ダビデすなはち其處のために金六百シケルを衡りてオルナンに與へたり
26 and David builds an altar to YHWH there, and offers burnt-offerings and peace-offerings, and calls to YHWH, and He answers him from the heavens with fire on the altar of the burnt-offering.
而してダビデ其處にてヱホバに一箇の祭壇を築き燔祭と酬恩祭を献げてヱホバを龥けるに天より燔祭の壇の上に火を降して之に應へたまへり
27 And YHWH speaks to the messenger, and he turns back his sword to its sheath.
ヱホバすなはちその使者に命じたまひければ彼その劍を鞘に蔵めたり
28 At that time, when David sees that YHWH has answered him in the threshing-floor of Ornan the Jebusite, then he sacrifices there;
その時ダビデはヱホバがヱブス人オルナンの打場において己に應へたまふを見たれば其處にて犠牲を献ぐることを爲り
29 and the Dwelling Place of YHWH that Moses made in the wilderness, and the altar of the burnt-offering, [are] at that time at a high place in Gibeon;
モーセが荒野にて造りたるヱホバの幕屋と燔祭の壇とは當時ギベオンの崇邱にありけるが
30 and David is not able to go before it to seek God, for he has been afraid because of the sword of the messenger of YHWH.
ダビデはその前に進みゆきて神に求むることを得せざりき是は彼ヱホバの使者の劍のために懼れたるに因てなり
