< Exodus 19 >

1 In the third month of the going out of the sons of Israel from the land of Egypt, in this day they have come into the wilderness of Sinai,
イスラエルの子孫エジプトの地を出て後第三月にいたりて其日にシナイの曠野に至る
2 and they journey from Rephidim, and enter the wilderness of Sinai, and encamp in the wilderness; and Israel encamps there before the mountain.
即ちかれらレピデムを出たちてシナイの曠野にいたり曠野に幕を張り彼處にてイスラエルは山の前に營を設けたり
3 And Moses has gone up to God, and YHWH calls to him out of the mountain, saying, “Thus you say to the house of Jacob, and declare to the sons of Israel:
爰にモーセ登て神に詣るにヱホバ山より彼を呼て言たまはく汝かくヤコブの家に言ひイスラエルの子孫に告べし
4 You have seen that which I have done to the Egyptians, and [how] I carry you on eagles’ wings and bring you to Myself.
汝らはエジプト人に我がなしたるところの事を見我が鷲の翼をのべて汝らを負て我にいたらしめしを見たり
5 And now, if you really listen to My voice, then you have kept My covenant, and have been a special treasure to Me more than all the peoples, for all the earth [is] Mine;
然ば汝等もし善く我が言を聽きわが契約を守らば汝等は諸の民に愈りてわが寶となるべし全地はわが所有なればなり
6 and you are to Me a kingdom of priests and a holy nation: these [are] the words which you speak to the sons of Israel.”
汝等は我に對して祭司の國となり聖き民となるべし是等の言語を汝イスラエルの子孫に告べし
7 And Moses comes, and calls for [the] elderly of the people, and sets before them all these words which YHWH has commanded him;
是に於てモーセ來りて民の長老等を呼びヱホバの己に命じたまひし言を盡くその前に陳たれば
8 and all the people answer together and say, “All that YHWH has spoken we do”; and Moses returns the words of the people to YHWH.
民皆等く應へて言けるはヱホバの言たまひし所は皆われら之を爲べしとモーセすなはち民の言をヱホバに告ぐ
9 And YHWH says to Moses, “Behold, I am coming to you in the thickness of the cloud, so that the people hear in My speaking with you, and also believe in you for all time”; and Moses declares the words of the people to YHWH.
ヱホバ、モーセに言たまひけるは觀よ我密雲の中にをりて汝に臨む是民をして我が汝と語るを聞しめて汝を永く信ぜしめんがためなりとモーセ民の言をヱホバに告たり
10 And YHWH says to Moses, “Go to the people and you have sanctified them today and tomorrow, and they have washed their garments,
ヱホバ、モーセに言たまひけるは汝民の所に往て今日明日これを聖め之にその衣服を澣せ
11 and have been prepared for the third day; for on the third day YHWH comes down on Mount Sinai before the eyes of all the people.
準備をなして三日を待て其は第三日にヱホバ全體の民の目の前にてシナイ山に降ればなり
12 And you have made a border [for] the people all around, saying, Take heed to yourselves, going up into the mountain or coming against its extremity; whoever is coming against the mountain is certainly put to death;
汝民のために四周に境界を設けて言べし汝等愼んで山に登るなかれその境界に捫るべからず山に捫る者はかならず殺さるべし
13 a hand does not come against him, for he is certainly stoned or shot through, whether beast or man—it does not live; in the prolonging of the ram’s horn they go up into the mountain.”
手を之に觸べからず其者はかならす石にて撃ころされ或は射ころさるべし獣と人とを言ず生ることを得じ喇叭を長く吹鳴さば人々山に上るべしと
14 And Moses comes down from the mountain to the people, and sanctifies the people, and they wash their garments;
モーセすなはち山を下り民にいたりて民を聖め民その衣服を濯ふ
15 and he says to the people, “Be prepared for the third day, do not come near to a woman.”
モーセ民に言けるは準備をなして三日を待て婦人に近づくべからず
16 And it comes to pass, on the third day, while it is morning, that there are voices, and lightnings, and a heavy cloud on the mountain, and the sound of a very strong horn; and all the people who [are] in the camp tremble.
かくて三日の朝にいたりて雷と電および密雲山の上にあり又喇叭の聲ありて甚だ高かり營にある民みな震ふ
17 And Moses brings out the people from the camp to meet God, and they station themselves at the lower part of the mountain,
モーセ營より民を引いでて神に會しむ民山の麓に立に
18 and Mount Sinai [is] wholly [in] smoke from the presence of YHWH, who has come down on it in fire, and its smoke goes up as smoke of the furnace, and the whole mountain trembles exceedingly;
シナイ山都て煙を出せりヱホバ火の中にありてその上に下りたまへばなりその煙竃の煙のごとく立のぼり山すべて震ふ
19 and the sound of the horn is going on, and [is] very strong; Moses speaks, and God answers him with a voice.
喇叭の聲彌高くなりゆきてばげしくなりける時モーセ言を出すに神聲をもて應へたまふ
20 And YHWH comes down on Mount Sinai, to the top of the mountain, and YHWH calls for Moses to the top of the mountain, and Moses goes up.
ヱホバ、シナイ山に下りその山の頂上にいまし而してヱホバ山の頂上にモーセを召たまひければモーセ上れり
21 And YHWH says to Moses, “Go down, protest to the people, lest they break through to YHWH to see, and many of them have fallen;
ヱホバ、モーセに言たまひけるは下りて民を警めよ恐らくは民推破りてヱホバに來りて見んとし多の者死るにいたらん
22 and also the priests who are coming near to YHWH sanctify themselves, lest YHWH break forth on them.”
又ヱホバに近くところの祭司等にその身を潔めしめよ恐くはヱホバかれらを撃ん
23 And Moses says to YHWH, “The people [are] unable to come up to Mount Sinai, for You have protested to us, saying, Make a border [for] the mountain, then you have sanctified it.”
モーセ、ヱホバに言けるは民はシナイ山に得のぼらじ其は汝われらを警めて山の四周に境界をたて山を聖めよと言たまひたればなり
24 And YHWH says to him, “Go, descend, then you have come up, you and Aaron with you; and the priests and the people do not break through to come up to YHWH, lest He break forth on them.”
ヱホバかれに言たまひけるは往け下れ而して汝とアロンともに上り來るべし但祭司等と民には推破りてにのぼりきたらしめざれ恐らくは我かれらを撃ん
25 And Moses goes down to the people and speaks to them.
モーセ民にくだりゆきてこれに告たり
