2 Samuel 12
1 And YHWH sends Nathan to David, and he comes to him, and says to him: “Two men have been in one city, one rich and one poor.
ヱホバ、ナタンをダビデに遣はしたまへば彼ダビデに至りてこれにいひけるは一の邑に二箇の人あり一は富て一は貧し
2 The rich has very many flocks and herds,
其富者は甚だ多くの羊と牛を有り
3 but the poor one has nothing, except one little ewe-lamb which he has bought and keeps alive. And it grows up together with him and with his sons. It eats of his morsel, and it drinks from his cup, and it lies in his bosom, and it is as a daughter to him.
されど貧者は唯自己の買て育てたる一の小き牝羔の外は何をも有ざりき其牝羔彼およびかれの子女とともに生長ちかれの食物を食ひかれの椀に飮みまた彼の懐に寝て彼には女子のごとくなりき
4 And a traveler comes to the rich man, and he spares to take from his own flock, and from his own herd, to prepare for the traveling [man] who has come to him; and he takes the ewe-lamb of the poor man and prepares it for the man who has come to him.”
時に一人の旅人其富る人の許に來りけるが彼おのれの羊と牛の中を取りてそのおのれに來れる旅人のために烹を惜みてかの貧き人の牝羔を取りて之をおのれに來れる人のために烹たり
5 And the anger of David burns against the man exceedingly, and he says to Nathan, “YHWH lives, surely the man who is doing this [is] a son of death,
ダビデ其人の事を大に怒りてナタンにいひけるはヱホバは生く誠に此をなしたる人は死べきなり
6 and [for] the ewe-lamb he repays fourfold, because that he has done this thing, and because that he had no pity.”
且彼此事をなしたるに因りまた憐憫まざりしによりて其牝羔を四倍になして償ふべし
7 And Nathan says to David, “You [are] the man! Thus said YHWH, God of Israel: I anointed you for king over Israel, and I delivered you out of the hand of Saul;
ナタン、ダビデにいひけるは汝は其人なりイスラエルの神ヱホバ斯いひたまふ我汝に膏を沃いでイスラエルの王となし我汝をサウルの手より救ひいだし
8 and I give to you the house of your lord, and the wives of your lord, into your bosom, and I give the house of Israel and Judah to you; and if [that is] too little, then I add such and such [things] to you.
汝に汝の主人の家をあたへ汝の主人の諸妻を汝の懐に與へまたイスラエルとユダの家を汝に與へたり若し少からば我汝に種々の物を増くはへしならん
9 Why have you despised the word of YHWH, to do evil in His eyes? You have struck Uriah the Hittite by the sword, and you have taken his wife for a wife for yourself, and you have slain him by the sword of the sons of Ammon.
何ぞ汝ヱホバの言を藐視じて其目のまへに惡をなせしや汝刃劍をもてヘテ人ウリヤを殺し其妻をとりて汝の妻となせり即ちアンモンの子孫の劍をもて彼を斬殺せり
10 And now, the sword does not turn aside from your house for all time, because you have despised Me, and take the wife of Uriah the Hittite to be for a wife for yourself;
汝我を軽んじてヘテ人ウリヤの妻をとり汝の妻となしたるに因て劍何時までも汝の家を離るることなかるべし
11 thus said YHWH: Behold, I am raising up calamity against you, out of your [own] house, and have taken your wives before your eyes, and given [them] to your neighbor, and he has lain with your wives before the eyes of this sun;
ヱホバ斯いひたまふ視よ我汝の家の中より汝の上に禍を起すべし我汝の諸妻を汝の目のまへに取て汝の隣人に與へん其人此日のまへにて汝の諸妻とともに寝ん
12 for you have done [it] in secret, and I do this thing before all Israel, and before the sun.”
其は汝は密に事をなしたれど我はイスラエルの衆のまへと日のまへに此事をなすべければなりと
13 And David says to Nathan, “I have sinned against YHWH.” And Nathan says to David, “Also—YHWH has caused your sin to pass away; you do not die;
ダビデ、ナタンにいふ我ヱホバに罪を犯したりナタン、ダビデにいひけるはヱホバまた汝の罪を除きたまへり汝死ざるべし
14 only, because you have caused the enemies of YHWH to greatly despise by this thing, also—the son who is born to you surely dies.”
されど汝此所行によりてヱホバの敵に大なる罵る機會を與へたれば汝に生れし其子必ず死べしと
15 And Nathan goes to his house, and YHWH strikes the boy, whom the wife of Uriah has borne to David, and it is incurable;
かくてナタン其家にかへれり 爰にヱホバ、ウリヤの妻がダビデに生る子を撃たまひければ痛く疾めり
16 and David seeks God for the youth, and David keeps a fast, and has gone in and lodged, and lain on the earth.
ダビデ其子のために神に乞求む即ちダビデ斷食して入り終夜地に臥したり
17 And [the] elderly of his house rise against him, to raise him up from the earth, and he has not been willing, nor has he eaten bread with them;
ダビデの家の年寄等彼の傍に立ちてかれを地より起しめんとせしかども彼肯ぜず又かれらとともに食を爲ざりき
18 and it comes to pass on the seventh day, that the boy dies, and the servants of David fear to declare to him that the boy is dead, for they said, “Behold, in the boy being alive we spoke to him, and he did not listen to our voice; and how do we say to him, The boy is dead? Then he has done evil.”
第七日に其子死りダビデの僕其子の死たることをダビデに告ることを恐れたりかれらいひけるは子の尚生る間に我儕彼に語たりしに彼我儕の言を聽いれざりき如何ぞ彼に其子の死たるを告ぐべけんや彼害を爲んと
19 And David sees that his servants are whispering, and David understands that the boy is dead, and David says to his servants, “Is the boy dead?” And they say, “Dead.”
然にダビデ其僕の私語くを見てダビデ其子の死たるを暁れりダビデ乃ち其僕に子は死たるやといひければかれら死りといふ
20 And David rises from the earth, and bathes and anoints [himself], and changes his raiment, and comes into the house of YHWH, and bows himself, and comes to his house, and asks and they place bread for him, and he eats.
是においてダビデ地よりおきあがり身を洗ひ膏をぬり其衣服を更てヱホバの家にいりて拝し自己の家に至り求めておのれのために食を備へしめて食へり
21 And his servants say to him, “What [is] this thing you have done? Because of the living boy you have fasted and you weep, and when the boy is dead you have risen and eat bread.”
僕等彼にいひけるは此の汝がなせる所は何事なるや汝子の生るあひだはこれがために斷食して哭きながら子の死る時に汝は起て食を爲すと
22 And he says, “While the boy is alive I have fasted and I weep, for I said, Who knows [if] YHWH pities me and the boy has lived?
ダビデいひけるは嬰孩の尚生るあひだにわが斷食して哭きたるは我誰かヱホバの我を憐れみて此子を生しめたまふを知んと思ひたればなり
23 And now, he has died, why [is] this—I fast? Am I able to bring him back again? I am going to him, and he does not return to me.”
されど今死たれば我なんぞ斷食すべけんや我再びかれをかへらしむるを得んや我かれの所に往べけれど彼は我の所にかへらざるべし
24 And David comforts his wife Bathsheba, and goes in to her, and lies with her, and she bears a son, and he calls his name Solomon; and YHWH has loved him,
ダビデ其妻バテシバを慰めかれの所にいりてかれとともに寝たりければ彼男子を生りダビデ其名をソロモンと呼ぶヱホバこれを愛したまひて
25 and sends by the hand of Nathan the prophet, and calls his name Jedidiah, because of YHWH.
預言者ナタンを遣はし其名をヱホバの故によりてヱデデア(ヱホバの愛する者)と名けしめたまふ
26 And Joab fights against Rabbah of the sons of Ammon, and captures the royal city,
爰にヨアブ、アンモンの子孫のラバを攻めて王城を取れり
27 and Joab sends messengers to David and says, “I have fought against Rabbah—I have also captured the city of waters;
ヨアブ使者をダビデにつかはしていひけるは我ラバを攻て水城を取れり
28 and now, gather the rest of the people, and encamp against the city, and capture it, lest I capture the city, and my name has been called on it.”
されば汝今餘の民を集め斯城に向て陣どりて之を取れ恐らくは我此城を取て人我名をもて之を呼にいたらんと
29 And David gathers all the people, and goes to Rabbah, and fights against it, and captures it;
是においてダビデ民を悉くあつめてラバにゆき攻て之を取り
30 and he takes the crown of their king from off his head, and its weight [is] a talent of gold, and precious stones, and it is on the head of David; and he has brought out the spoil of the city—very much;
しかしてダビデ、アンモン王の冕を其首より取はなしたり其金の重は一タラントなりまた寶石を嵌たりこれをダビデの首に置ダビデ其邑の掠取物を甚だ多く持出せり
31 and he has brought out the people who [are] in it, and sets [them] to the saw, and to cutting instruments of iron, and to axes of iron, and has caused them to pass over into the brick-kiln; and so he does to all the cities of the sons of Ammon; and David turns back, and all the people, to Jerusalem.
かくてダビデ其中の民を將いだしてこれを鋸と鐵の千歯と鐵の斧にて斬りまた瓦陶の中を通行しめたり彼斯のごとくアンモンの子孫の凡ての城邑になせりしかしてタビデと民は皆エルサレムに還りぬ
