1 Samuel 15
1 And Samuel says to Saul, “YHWH sent me to anoint you for king over His people, over Israel; and now, listen to the voice of the words of YHWH.
茲にサムエル、サウルにいひけるはヱホバ我をつかはし汝に膏を沃ぎて其民イスラエルの王となさしめたりさればヱホバの言の聲をきけ
2 Thus said YHWH of Hosts: I have looked after that which Amalek did to Israel, that which he laid for him in the way in his going up out of Egypt.
萬軍のヱホバかくいひたまふ我アマレクがイスラエルになせし事すなはちエジプトよりのぼれる時其途を遮りしをかへりみる
3 Now go, and you have struck Amalek, and devoted all that he has, and you have no pity on him, and have put to death from man to woman, from infant to suckling, from ox to sheep, from camel to donkey.”
今ゆきてアマレクを撃ち其有る物をことごとく滅しつくし彼らを憐むなかれ男女童稚哺乳兒牛羊駱駝驢馬を皆殺せ
4 And Saul summons the people, and inspects them in Telaim, two hundred thousand footmen, and ten thousand [are] men of Judah.
サウル民をよびあつめてこれをテライムに核ふ歩兵二十萬ユダの人一萬あり
5 And Saul comes to a city of Amalek, and lays wait in a valley;
しかしてサウル、アマレクの邑にいたりて谷に兵を伏たり
6 and Saul says to the Kenite, “Go, turn aside, go down from the midst of Amalek, lest I consume you with it, and you did kindness with all the sons of Israel, in their going up out of Egypt”; and the Kenite turns aside from the midst of Amalek.
サウル、ケニ人にいひけるは汝らゆきてさりアマレク人をはなれくだるべし恐らくはかれらとともに汝らをほろぼすにいたらんイスラエルの子孫のエジプトよりのぼれる時汝らこれに恩みをほどこしたりと即ちケニ人アマレク人をはなれてさりぬ
7 And Saul strikes Amalek from Havilah [to] your going to Shur, which [is] on the front of Egypt,
サウル、アマレク人をうちてハビラよりエジプトの東面なるシユルにいたる
8 and he catches Agag king of Amalek alive, and he has devoted all the people by the mouth of the sword;
サウル、アマレク人の王アガグを生擒り刃をもて其民をことごとくほろぼせり
9 and Saul has pity—also the people—on Agag, and on the best of the flock, and of the herd, and of the seconds, and on the lambs, and on all that [is] good, and have not been willing to devote them; and all the work, despised and wasted—it they devoted.
然ども、サウルと民アガグをゆるしまた羊と牛の最も嘉きもの及び肥たる物並に羔と凡て善き物を殘して之をほろぼしつくすをこのまず但惡き弱き物をほろぼしつくせり
10 And the word of YHWH is to Samuel, saying,
時にヱホバの言サムエルにのぞみていはく
11 “I have regretted that I caused Saul to reign for king, for he has turned back from after Me, and he has not performed My words”; and it is displeasing to Samuel, and he cries to YHWH all the night.
我サウルを王となせしを悔ゆ其は彼背きて我にしたがはずわが命をおこなはざればなりとサムエル憂て終夜ヱホバによばはれり
12 And Samuel rises early to meet Saul in the morning, and it is declared to Samuel, saying, “Saul has come to Carmel, and behold, he is setting up a monument to himself, and goes around, and passes over, and goes down to Gilgal.”
かくてサムエル、サウルにあはんとて夙く起きけるにサムエルにつぐるものありていふサウル、カルメルにいたり勝利の表を立て轉り進みてギルガルにくだれりと
13 And Samuel comes to Saul, and Saul says to him, “Blessed [are] you of YHWH; I have performed the word of YHWH.”
サムエル、サウルの許に至りければサウルこれにいひけるは汝がヱホバより福祉を得んことをねがふ我ヱホバの命を行へりと
14 And Samuel says, “And what [is] the noise of this flock in my ears—and the noise of the herd which I am hearing?”
サムエルいひけるは然らばわが耳にいる此羊の聲およびわがきく牛のこゑは何ぞや
15 And Saul says, “They have brought them from Amalek, because the people had pity on the best of the flock, and of the herd, in order to sacrifice to your God YHWH, and we have devoted the remnant.”
サウルいひけるは人々これをアマレク人のところより引ききたれり其は民汝の神ヱホバにささげんために羊と牛の最も嘉きものをのこせばなり其ほかは我らほろぼしつくせり
16 And Samuel says to Saul, “Desist, and I declare to you that which YHWH has spoken to me tonight”; and he says to him, “Speak.”
サムエル、サウルにいけるは止まれ昨夜ヱホバの我にかたりたまひしことを汝につげんサウルいひけるはいへ
17 And Samuel says, “Are you not, if you [are] little in your own eyes, head of the tribes of Israel? And YHWH anoints you for king over Israel,
サムエルいひけるはさきに汝が微き者とみづから憶へる時に爾イスラエルの支派の長となりしに非ずや即ちヱホバ汝に膏を注いでイスラエルの王となせり
18 and YHWH sends you in the way, and says, Go, and you have devoted the sinners, the Amalekite, and fought against them until they are consumed;
ヱホバ汝を途に遣はしていひたまはく往て惡人なるアマレク人をほろぼし其盡るまで戰へよと
19 and why have you not listened to the voice of YHWH—and fly to the spoil, and do evil in the eyes of YHWH?”
何故に汝ヱホバの言をきかずして敵の所有物にはせかかりヱホバの目のまへに惡をなせしや
20 And Saul says to Samuel, “Because—I have listened to the voice of YHWH, and I go in the way which YHWH has sent me, and bring in Agag king of Amalek, and I have devoted Amalek;
サウル、サムエルにひけるは我誠にヱホバの言にしたがひてヱホバのつかはしたまふ途にゆきアマレクの王アガグを執きたりアマレクをほろぼしつくせり
21 and the people take of the spoil of the flock and herd, the first part of the devoted thing, for sacrifice to your God YHWH in Gilgal.”
ただ民其ほろぼしつくすべき物の最初としてギルガルにて汝の神ヱホバにささげんとて敵の物の中より羊と牛をとれり
22 And Samuel says, “Has YHWH had delight in burnt-offerings and sacrifices as [in] listening to the voice of YHWH? Behold, listening is better than sacrifice; to give attention than fat of rams;
サムエルいひけるはヱホバはその言にしたがふ事を善したまふごとく燔祭と犠牲を善したまふや夫れ順ふ事は犠牲にまさり聽く事は牡羔の脂にまさるなり
23 for rebellion [is as] a sin of divination, and stubbornness [is as] iniquity and teraphim; because you have rejected the word of YHWH, He also rejects you from [being] king.”
其は違逆は魔術の罪のごとく抗戻は虚しき物につかふる如く偶像につかふるがごとし汝ヱホバの言を棄たるによりヱホバもまた汝をすてて王たらざらしめたまふ
24 And Saul says to Samuel, “I have sinned, for I passed over the command of YHWH, and your words; because I have feared the people, I also listen to their voice;
サウル、サムエルにいひけるに我ヱホバの命と汝の言をやぶりて罪ををかしたり是は民をおそれて其言にしたがひたるによりてなり
25 and now, please bear with my sin, and return with me, and I bow myself to YHWH.”
されば今ねがはくはわがつみをゆるし我とともにかへりて我をしてヱホバを拝することをえさしめよ
26 And Samuel says to Saul, “I do not return with you; for you have rejected the word of YHWH, and YHWH rejects you from being king over Israel.”
サムエル、サウルにいひけるは我汝とともにかへらじ汝ヱホバの言を棄たるによりヱホバ汝をすててイスラエルに王たらしめたまはざればなり
27 And Samuel turns around to go, and he lays hold on the skirt of his upper robe—and it is torn!
サムエル去らんとて振還しときサウルその明衣の裾を捉へしかば裂たり
28 And Samuel says to him, “YHWH has torn the kingdom of Israel from you today, and given it to your neighbor who is better than you;
サムエルかれにいひけるは今日ヱホバ、イスラエルの國を裂て汝よりはなし汝の隣なる汝より善きものにこれをあたへたまふ
29 and also, the Preeminence of Israel does not lie nor relent, for He [is] not a man that He should relent.”
またイスラエルの能力たる者は謊らず悔ず其はかれは人にあらざればくゆることなし
30 And he says, “I have sinned; now please honor me before [the] elderly of my people and before Israel, and return with me; and I have bowed myself to your God YHWH.”
サウルいひけるは我罪ををかしたれどねがはくはわが民の長老のまへおよびイスラエルのまへにて我をたふとみて我とともにかへり我をして汝の神ヱホバを拝むことをえさしめよ
31 And Samuel turns back after Saul, and Saul bows himself to YHWH;
ここにおいてサムエル、サウルにしたがひてかへるしかしてサウル、ヱホバを拝む
32 and Samuel says, “Bring Agag king of Amalek to me,” and Agag comes to him daintily, and Agag says, “Surely the bitterness of death has turned aside.”
時にサムエルいひけるは汝らわが許にアマレクの王アガグをひききたれとアガグ喜ばしげにサムエルの許にきたりアガグいひけるは死の苦みは必ず過さりぬ
33 And Samuel says, “As your sword bereaved women—so is your mother bereaved above women”; and Samuel hews Agag in pieces before YHWH in Gilgal.
サムエルいひけるに汝の劍はおほくの婦人を子なき者となせりかくのごとく汝の母は婦人の中の最も子なき者となるべしとサムエル、ギルガルにてヱホバのまへにおいてアガグを斬り
34 And Samuel goes to Ramath, and Saul has gone to his house—to Gibeah of Saul.
かくてサムエルはラマにゆきサウルはサウルのギベアにのぼりてその家にいたる
35 And Samuel has not added to see Saul until the day of his death, for Samuel mourned for Saul, and YHWH regretted that He had caused Saul to reign over Israel.
サムエル其しぬる日までふたたびきたりてサウルをみざりきしかれどもサムエル、サウルのためにかなしめりまたヱホバはサウルをイスラエルの王となせしを悔たまへり
