< Genesis 41 >
1 And it comes to pass, at the end of two years of days that Pharaoh is dreaming, and behold, he is standing by the River,
二年の後パロ夢ることあり即ち河の濱にたちて
2 and behold, from the River coming up are seven cows, of beautiful appearance, and fat [in] flesh, and they feed among the reeds;
視るに七の美しき肥たる牝牛河よりのぼりて葦を食ふ
3 and behold, seven other cows are coming up after them out of the River, of bad appearance, and lean [in] flesh, and they stand near the cows on the edge of the River,
その後また七の醜き痩たる牛河よりのぼり河の畔にて彼牛の側にたちしが
4 and the cows of bad appearance and lean [in] flesh eat up the seven cows of beautiful appearance, and fat—and Pharaoh awakens.
その醜き痩たる牛かの美しき肥たる七の牛を食ひつくせりパロ是にいたりて寤む
5 And he sleeps, and dreams a second time, and behold, seven ears are coming up on one stalk, fat and good,
彼また寢て再び夢るに一の莖に七の肥たる佳き穗いできたる
6 and behold, seven ears, thin, and blasted with an east wind, are springing up after them;
其のちに又しなびて東風に燒たる七の穗いできたりしが
7 and the thin ears swallow the seven fat and full ears—and Pharaoh awakens, and behold, a dream.
その七のしなびたる穗かの七の肥實りたる穗を呑盡せりパロ寤て見に夢なりき
8 And it comes to pass in the morning, that his spirit is moved, and he sends and calls all the enchanters of Egypt, and all its wise men, and Pharaoh recounts to them his dream, and there is no interpreter of them to Pharaoh.
パロ朝におよびてその心安からず人をつかはしてエジプトの法術士とその博士を皆ことごとく召し之にその夢を述たり然ど之をパロに解うる者なかりき
9 And the chief of the butlers speaks with Pharaoh, saying, “I mention my sin this day:
時に酒人の長パロに告ていふ我今日わが過をおもひいづ
10 Pharaoh has been angry against his servants, and puts me in confinement in the house of the chief of the executioners, me and the chief of the bakers;
甞てパロその僕を怒て我と膳夫の長を侍衞の長の家に幽囚へたまひし時
11 and we dream a dream in one night, I and he, each according to the interpretation of his dream we have dreamed.
我と彼ともに一夜のうちに夢み各その解明にかなふ夢をみたりしが
12 And there [is] with us a youth, a Hebrew, servant to the chief of the executioners, and we recount to him, and he interprets to us our dreams, [to] each according to his dream has he interpreted,
彼處に侍衞の長の僕なる若きヘブル人我らと偕にあり我等これにのべたれば彼われらの夢を解その夢にしたがひて各人に解明をなせり
13 and it comes to pass, as he has interpreted to us so it has been, me he put back on my station, and him he hanged.”
しかして其事かれが解たるごとくなりて我はわが職にかへり彼は木に懸らる
14 And Pharaoh sends and calls Joseph, and they cause him to run out of the pit, and he shaves, and changes his garments, and comes to Pharaoh.
是に於てパロ人をやりてヨセフを召しければ急ぎてこれを獄より出せりヨセフすなはち髭を薙り衣をかへてパロの許にいり來る
15 And Pharaoh says to Joseph, “I have dreamed a dream, and there is no interpreter of it, and I have heard concerning you, saying, You understand a dream to interpret it,”
パロ、ヨセフにいひけるは我夢をみたれど之をとく者なし聞に汝は夢をききて之を解くことをうると云ふ
16 and Joseph answers Pharaoh, saying, “Without me—God answers Pharaoh with peace.”
ヨセフ、パロにこたへていひけるは我によるにあらず神パロの平安を告たまはん
17 And Pharaoh speaks to Joseph: “In my dream, behold, I am standing by the edge of the River,
パロ、ヨセフにいふ我夢に河の岸にたちて見るに
18 and behold, out of the River coming up are seven cows, fat [in] flesh, and of beautiful form, and they feed among the reeds;
河より七の肥たる美しき牝牛のぼりて葦を食ふ
19 and behold, seven other cows are coming up after them, thin, and of very bad form, and lean [in] flesh; I have not seen like these in all the land of Egypt for badness.
後また弱く甚だ醜き瘠たる七の牝牛のぼりきたる其惡き事エジプト全國にわが未だ見ざるほどなり
20 And the lean and the bad cows eat up the first seven fat cows,
その瘠たる醜き牛初の七の肥たる牛を食ひつくしたりしが
21 and they come in to their midst, and it has not been known that they have come in to their midst, and their appearance [is] bad as at the commencement; and I awake.
已に腹にいりても其腹にいりし事しれず尚前のごとく醜かりき我是にいたりて寤めたり
22 And I see in my dream, and behold, seven ears are coming up on one stalk, full and good;
我また夢に見るに七の實たる佳き穗一の莖にいできたる
23 and behold, seven ears, withered, thin, blasted with an east wind, are springing up after them;
その後にまたいぢけ萎びて東風にやけたる七の穗生じたりしが
24 and the thin ears swallow the seven good ears; and I tell [it] to the enchanters, and there is none declaring [it] to me.”
そのしなびたる穗かの七の佳穗を呑つくせり我これを法術士に告たれどもわれにこれをしめすものなし
25 And Joseph says to Pharaoh, “The dream of Pharaoh is one: that which God is doing he has declared to Pharaoh;
ヨセフ、パロにいひけるはパロの夢は一なり神その爲んとする所をパロに示したまへるなり
26 the seven good cows are seven years, and the seven good ears are seven years, the dream is one;
七の美牝牛は七年七の佳穗も七年にして夢は一なり
27 and the seven thin and bad cows which are coming up after them are seven years, and the seven empty ears, blasted with an east wind, are seven years of famine;
其後にのぼりし七の瘠たる醜き牛は七年にしてその東風にやけたる七の空穗は七年の饑饉なり
28 this [is] the thing which I have spoken to Pharaoh: God has shown Pharaoh what He is doing.
是はわがパロに申すところなり神そのなさんとするところをパロにしめしたまふ
29 Behold, seven years are coming of great abundance in all the land of Egypt,
エジプトの全地に七年の大なる豐年あるべし
30 and seven years of famine have arisen after them, and all the plenty is forgotten in the land of Egypt, and the famine has finished the land,
その後に七年の凶年おこらん而してエジプトの地にありし豐作を皆忘るにいたるべし饑饉國を滅さん
31 and the plenty is not known in the land because of that famine afterward, for it [is] very grievous.
後にいたるその饑饉はなはだはげしきにより前の豐作國の中に知れざるにいたらん
32 And because of the repeating of the dream to Pharaoh twice, surely the thing is established by God, and God is hurrying to do it.
パロのふたたび夢をかさね見たまひしは神がこの事をさだめて速に之をなさんとしたまふなり
33 And now, let Pharaoh provide a man, intelligent and wise, and set him over the land of Egypt;
さればパロ慧く賢き人をえらみて之にエジプトの國を治めしめたまふべし
34 let Pharaoh make and appoint overseers over the land, and receive a fifth of the land of Egypt in the seven years of plenty,
パロこれをなし國中に官吏を置てその七年の豐年の中にエジプトの國の五分の一を取たまふべし
35 and they gather all the food of these good years that are coming, and heap up grain under the hand of Pharaoh—food in the cities; and they have kept [it],
而して其官吏をして來らんとするその善き年の諸の糧食を斂めてその穀物をパロの手に蓄へしめ糧食を邑々にかこはしめたまふべし
36 and the food has been for a store for the land, for the seven years of famine which are in the land of Egypt; and the land is cut off by the famine.”
その糧食を國のために畜藏へおきてエジプトの國にのぞむ七年の饑饉に備へ國をして饑饉のために滅ざらしむべし
37 And the thing is good in the eyes of Pharaoh, and in the eyes of all his servants,
パロとその諸の臣僕此事を善とす
38 and Pharaoh says to his servants, “Do we find like this, a man in whom the Spirit of God [is]?”
是に於てパロその臣僕にいふ我等神の靈のやどれる是のごとき人を看いだすをえんやと
39 And Pharaoh says to Joseph, “After God’s causing you to know all this, there is none intelligent and wise as you;
しかしてパロ、ヨセフにいひけるは神是を盡く汝にしめしたまひたれば汝のごとく慧く賢き者なかるべし
40 you are over my house, and at your mouth do all my people kiss; only in the throne I am greater than you.”
汝わが家を宰るべしわが民みな汝の口にしたがはん唯位においてのみ我は汝より大なるべし
41 And Pharaoh says to Joseph, “See, I have put you over all the land of Egypt.”
パロ、ヨセフにいひけるは視よ我汝をエジプト全國の冢宰となすと
42 And Pharaoh turns aside his seal-ring from off his hand, and puts it on the hand of Joseph, and clothes him [with] garments of fine linen, and places a chain of gold on his neck,
パロすなはち指環をその手より脱して之をヨセフの手にはめ之を白布を衣せ金の索をその項にかけ
43 and causes him to ride in the second chariot which he has, and they proclaim before him, “Bow the knee!” And [he] set him over all the land of Egypt.
之をして己のもてる次の輅に乗しめ下にゐよと其前に呼しむ是彼をエジプト全國の冢宰となせり
44 And Pharaoh says to Joseph, “I [am] Pharaoh, and without you a man does not lift up his hand and his foot in all the land of Egypt”;
パロ、ヨセフにいひけるは我はパロなりエジプト全國に汝の允准をえずして手足をあぐる者なかるべしと
45 and Pharaoh calls Joseph’s name Zaphnath-Paaneah, and he gives to him Asenath daughter of Poti-Pherah, priest of On, for a wife, and Joseph goes out over the land of Egypt.
パロ、ヨセフの名をザフナテパネアと名けまたオンの祭司ポテパルの女アセナテを之にあたへて妻となさしむヨセフいでてエジプトの地をめぐる
46 And Joseph [is] a son of thirty years in his standing before Pharaoh king of Egypt, and Joseph goes out from the presence of Pharaoh, and passes over through all the land of Egypt;
ヨセフはエジプトの王パロのまへに立し時三十歳なりきヨセフ、パロのまへを出て遍くエジプトの地を巡れり
47 and the land makes in the seven years of plenty by handfuls.
七年の豐年の中に地山なして物を生ず
48 And he gathers all the food of the seven years which have been in the land of Egypt, and puts food in the cities; the food of the field which [is] around [each] city has he put in its midst;
ヨセフすなはちエジプトの地にありしその七年の糧食を斂めてその糧食を邑々に藏む即ち邑の周圍の田圃の糧食を其邑の中に藏む
49 and Joseph gathers grain as sand of the sea, multiplying exceedingly, until he has ceased to number, for there is no number.
ヨセフ海隅の沙のごとく甚だ多く穀物を儲へ遂に數ふることをやむるに至る其は數かぎり無ればなり
50 And to Joseph were born two sons before the year of famine comes, whom Asenath daughter of Poti-Pherah, priest of On, has borne to him,
饑饉の歳のいたらざる前にヨセフに二人の子うまる是はオンの祭司ポテパルの女アセナテの生たる者なり
51 and Joseph calls the name of the firstborn Manasseh: “For God has made me to forget all my labor, and all the house of my father”;
ヨセフその冢子の名をマナセ(忘)となづけて言ふ神我をしてわが諸の苦難とわが父の家の凡の事をわすれしめたまふと
52 and the name of the second he has called Ephraim: “For God has caused me to be fruitful in the land of my affliction.”
又次の子の名をエフライム(多く生る)となづけていふ神われをしてわが艱難の地にて多くの子をえせしめたまふと
53 And the seven years of plenty are completed which have been in the land of Egypt,
爰にエジプトの國の七年の豐年をはり
54 and the seven years of famine begin to come, as Joseph said, and famine is in all the lands, but in all the land of Egypt has been bread;
ヨセフの言しごとく七年の凶年きたりはじむその饑饉は諸の國にあり然どエジプト全國には食物ありき
55 and all the land of Egypt is famished, and the people cry to Pharaoh for bread, and Pharaoh says to all the Egyptians, “Go to Joseph; that which he says to you—do.”
エジプト全國饑し時民さけびてパロに食物を乞ふパロ、エジプトの諸の人にいひけるはヨセフに往け彼が汝等にいふところをなせと
56 And the famine has been over all the face of the land, and Joseph opens all [places] which have [grain] in them, and sells to the Egyptians; and the famine is severe in the land of Egypt,
饑饉全地の面にありヨセフすなはち諸の倉廩をひらきてエジプト人に賣わたせり饑饉ますますエジプトの國にはげしくなる
57 and all the earth has come to Egypt, to buy, to Joseph, for the famine was severe in all the earth.
饑饉諸の國にはげしくなりしかば諸國の人エジプトにきたりヨセフにいたりて穀物を買ふ
