< 1 Samuel 21 >
1 And David comes to Nob, to Ahimelech the priest, and Ahimelech trembles at meeting David and says to him, “Why [are] you alone, and no man [is] with you?”
ダビデ、ノブにゆきて祭司アヒメレクにいたるアヒメレク懼れてダビデを迎へこれにいひけるは汝なんぞ獨にして誰も汝とともならざるや
2 And David says to Ahimelech the priest, “The king has commanded me [on] a matter, and he says to me, Let no man know anything of the matter about which I send you, and which I have commanded you; and [my] young men know [to go] to such and such a place.
ダビデ祭司アヒメレクにいふ王我に一の事を命じて我にいふ我が汝を遣はすところの事およびわが汝に命じたる所については何をも人にしらするなかれと我某處に我少者を出おけり
3 And now, what is there under your hand? Give five loaves into my hand, or that which is found.”
いま何か汝の手にあるや我手に五のパンか或はなににてもある所を與よ
4 And the priest answers David and says, “There is no common bread under my hand, but there is holy bread; if only the youths have been kept from women.”
祭司ダビデに對ていひけるは常のパンはわが手になしされど若し少者婦女をだに愼みてありしならば聖きパンあるなりと
5 And David answers the priest and says to him, “Surely, if women have been restrained from us as before in my going out, then the vessels of the young men are holy, and it [is] a common way; and also, surely it is sanctified today in the vessel.”
ダビデ祭司に對へていひけるは實にわがいでしより此三日は婦女われらにちかづかず且少者等の器は潔し又パンは常の物のごとし今日器に潔きパンあれば殊に然と
6 And the priest gives the holy thing to him, for there was no bread there except the Bread of the Presentation, which is turned aside from the presence of YHWH to put hot bread [there] in the day of its being taken away.
祭司かれに聖きパンを與たり其はかしこに供前のパンの外はパン无りければなり即ち其パンは下る日に熱きパンをささげんとて之をヱホバのまへより取されるなり
7 And there [is] a man of the servants of Saul detained before YHWH on that day, and his name [is] Doeg the Edomite, chief of the shepherds whom Saul has.
其日かしこにサウルの僕一人留められてヱホバのまへにあり其名をドエグといふエドミ人にしてサウルの牧者の長なり
8 And David says to Ahimelech, “And is there not spear or sword here under your hand? For I have taken neither my sword nor my vessels in my hand, for the matter of the king was urgent.”
ダビデまたアヒメレクにいふ此に汝の手に槍か劍あらぬか王の事急なるによりて我は刀も武器も携へざりしと
9 And the priest says, “The sword of Goliath the Philistine, whom you struck in the Valley of Elah, behold, it is wrapped in a garment behind the ephod, if you take it to yourself, take; for there is none other except it in this [place].” And David says, “There is none like it—give it to me.”
祭司いひけるは汝がエラの谷にて殺したるペリシテ人ゴリアテの劍布に裏みてエポデの後にあり汝もし之をとらんとおもはば取れ此にはほかの劍なしダビデいひけるはそれにまさるものなし我にあたへよと
10 And David rises and flees on that day from the face of Saul, and comes to Achish king of Gath;
ダビデ其日サウルをおそれて立てガテの王アキシのところに逃げゆきぬ
11 and the servants of Achish say to him, “Is this not David, the king of the land? Is it not of this one [that] they sing in dances, saying, Saul struck among his thousands, and David among his myriads?”
アキシの臣僕アキシに曰けるは此は其地の王ダビデにあらずや人々舞踏のうちにこの人のことを歌ひあひてサウルは千をうちころしダビデは萬をうちころすといひしにあらずや
12 And David lays these words in his heart, and is exceedingly afraid of the face of Achish king of Gath,
ダビデこの言を心に蔵め深くガテの王アキシをおそれ
13 and changes his behavior before their eyes, and feigns himself mad in their hand, and scribbles on the doors of the gate, and lets down his spittle to his beard.
人々のまへに佯て其氣を變じ執はれて狂人のさまをなし門の扉に書き其涎沫を鬚にながれくだらしむ
14 And Achish says to his servants, “Behold, you see a man acting as a madman; why do you bring him to me?
アキシ僕に云けるは汝らの見るごとく此人は狂人なり何ぞかれを我にひき來るや
15 Am I lacking madmen, that you have brought in this one to act as a madman before me? Does this one come into my house?”
我なんぞ狂人を須ひんや汝ら此者を引きたりてわがまへに狂しめんとするや此者なんぞ吾が家にいるべけんや
