Genesis 33
1 And Jacob lifts up his eyes, and looks, and behold, Esau is coming, and with him four hundred men; and he divides the children to Leah, and to Rachel, and to the two maidservants;
爰にヤコブ目をあげて視にエサウ四百人をひきゐて來りしかば則ち子等を分ちてレアとラケルと二人の仕女とに付し
2 and he sets the maidservants and their children first, and Leah and her children behind, and Rachel and Joseph last.
仕女とその子等を前におきレアとその子等を次におきラケルとヨセフを後におきて
3 And he himself passed over before them, and bows himself to the earth seven times, until his drawing near to his brother,
自彼等の前に進み七度身を地にかがめて遂に兄に近づきけるに
4 and Esau runs to meet him, and embraces him, and falls on his neck, and kisses him, and they weep;
エサウ趨てこれを迎へ抱きてその頸をかかへて之に接吻すしかして二人ともに啼泣り
5 and he lifts up his eyes, and sees the women and the children, and says, “What [are] these to you?” And he says, “The children with whom God has favored your servant.”
エサウ目をあげて婦人と子等を見ていひけるは是等の汝とともなる者は誰なるやヤコブいひけるは神が僕に授けたまひし子なりと
6 And the maidservants draw near, they and their children, and bow themselves;
時に仕女等その子とともに近よりて拜し
7 and Leah also draws near, and her children, and they bow themselves; and afterward Joseph has drawn near with Rachel, and they bow themselves.
レアも亦その子とともに近よりて拜す其後にヨセフとラケルちかよりて拜す
8 And he says, “What to you [is] all this camp which I have met?” And he says, “To find grace in the eyes of my lord.”
エサウ又いひけるは我あへる此諸の群は何のためなるやヤコブいふ主の目の前に恩を獲んがためなり
9 And Esau says, “I have abundance, my brother, that which you have, let it be for yourself.”
エサウいひけるは弟よわが有ところの者は足り汝の所有は汝自ら之を有てよ
10 And Jacob says, “No, please, now if I have found grace in your eyes, then you have received my present from my hand, because that I have seen your face, as the seeing of the face of God, and you are pleased with me;
ヤコブいひけるは否我もし汝の目の前に恩をえたらんには請ふわが手よりこの禮物を受よ我汝の面をみるに神の面をみるがごとくなり汝また我をよろこぶ
11 please receive my blessing which is brought to you, because God has favored me, and because I have all [things]”; and he presses on him, and he receives [it],
神我をめぐみたまひて我が有ところの者足りされば請ふわが汝にたてまつる禮物を受よと彼に強ければ終に受たり
12 and says, “Let us journey and go on, and I go on before you.”
エサウいひけるは我等いでたちてゆかん我汝にさきだつべし
13 And he says to him, “My lord knows that the children [are] tender, and the suckling flock and the herd [are] with me; when they have beaten them one day, then all the flock has died.
ヤコブ彼にいひけるは主のしりたまふごとく子等は幼弱し又子を持る羊と牛と我にしたがふ若一日これを驅すごさば群みな死ん
14 Please let my lord pass over before his servant, and I lead on gently, according to the foot of the work which [is] before me, and to the foot of the children, until I come to my lord, to Seir.”
請ふわが主僕にさきだちて進みたまへ我はわが前にゆくところの家畜と子女に足にまかせて徐に導きすすみセイルにてわが主に詣らん
15 And Esau says, “Please let me place with you some of the people who [are] with me”; and he said, “Why [is] this? I find grace in the eyes of my lord.”
エサウいひけるは然ば我わがひきゐる人數人を汝の所にのこさんヤコブいひけるは何ぞ此を須んや我をして主の目の前に恩を得せしめよ
16 And Esau turns back on that day on his way to Seir;
是に於てエサウは此日その途にしたがひてセイルに還りぬ
17 and Jacob has journeyed to Succoth, and builds a house for himself, and has made shelters for his livestock, therefore he has called the name of the place Succoth.
斯てヤコブ、スコテに進みて己のために家を建て又家畜のために廬を作れり是によりて其處の名をスコテ（廬）といふ
18 And Jacob comes safe [to the] city of Shechem, which [is] in the land of Canaan, in his coming from Padan-Aram, and encamps before the city,
ヤコブ、パダンアラムより來りて恙なくカナンの地にあるシケムの邑に至り邑の前にその天幕を張り
19 and he buys the portion of the field where he has stretched out his tent, from the hand of the sons of Hamor, father of Shechem, for one hundred kesitah;
遂にその天幕をはりしところの野をシケムの父ハモルの子等の手により金百枚にて購とり
20 and he sets up there an altar, and proclaims at it God—the God of Israel.
彼處に壇をきづきて之をエル、エロヘ、イスラエル（イスラエルの神なる神）となづけたり
