< Joshua 22 >
1 Then Joshua calls for the Reubenite, and for the Gadite, and for the half-tribe of Manasseh,
茲にヨシユア、ルベン人ガド人およびマナセの支派の半を召て
2 and says to them, “You have kept the whole of that which Moses, servant of YHWH, commanded you, and you listen to my voice, to all that I have commanded you;
これに言けるは汝らはヱホバの僕モーセが汝らに命ぜし所をことごとく守り又わが汝らに命ぜし一切の事において我言に聽したがへり
3 you have not left your brothers these many days to this day, and have kept the charge—the command of your God YHWH.
汝らは今日まで日ひさしく汝らの兄弟を離れずして汝らの神ヱホバの命令の言を守り來り
4 And now, your God YHWH has given rest to your brothers, as He spoke to them; and now, turn, and go for yourselves to your tents, to the land of your possession, which Moses, servant of YHWH, has given to you beyond the Jordan.
今は已に汝らの神ヱホバなんぢらの兄弟に向に宣まひし如く安息を賜ふに至れり然ば汝ら身を轉らしヱホバの僕モーセが汝らに與へしヨルダンの彼方なる汝等の產業の地に歸りて自己の天幕にゆけ
5 Only, be very watchful to do the command and the Law which Moses, servant of YHWH, commanded you, to love your God YHWH, and to walk in all His ways, and to keep His commands, and to cleave to Him, and to serve Him, with all your heart, and with all your soul.”
只ヱホバの僕モーセが汝らに命じおきし誡命と律法とを善く謹しみて行ひ汝らの神ヱホバを愛しその一切の途に歩みその命令を守りて之に附したがひ心を盡し精神を盡して之に事ふべしと
6 And Joshua blesses them, and sends them away, and they go to their tents.
かくてヨシユア彼らを祝して去しめければ彼らはその天幕に往り
7 And to the half-tribe of Manasseh Moses has given, in Bashan, and to its [other] half Joshua has given with their brothers beyond the Jordan westward; and also when Joshua has sent them away to their tents, then he blesses them,
マナセの支派の半にはモーセ、バシヤンにて產業を與へおけりその他の半にはヨシユア、ヨルダンの此旁西の方にてその兄弟等の中に產業を與ふヨシユア彼らをその天幕に歸し遣るに當りて之を祝し
8 and speaks to them, saying, “Turn back to your tents with great riches, and with very much livestock, with silver, and with gold, and with bronze, and with iron, and with very much raiment; divide the spoil of your enemies with your brothers.”
之に告て言けるは汝ら衆多の貨財夥多しき家畜金銀銅鐵および夥多しき衣服をもちて汝らの天幕に歸り汝らの敵より獲たるその物を汝らの兄弟の中に分つべしと
9 And the sons of Reuben, and the sons of Gad, and the half-tribe of Manasseh, turn back and go from the sons of Israel out of Shiloh, which [is] in the land of Canaan, to go to the land of Gilead, to the land of their possession, in which they have possession, according to the command of YHWH, by the hand of Moses;
爰にルベンの子孫ガドの子孫およびマナセの支派の半はヱホバのモーセによりて命じ給ひし所に循ひて己の所有の地すなはち已に獲たるギレアデの地に往んとてカナンの地のシロよりしてイスラエルの子孫に別れて歸りけるが
10 and they come to the districts of the Jordan, which [are] in the land of Canaan, and the sons of Reuben, and the sons of Gad, and the half-tribe of Manasseh, build an altar there by the Jordan—a great altar in appearance.
ルベンの子孫ガドの子孫およびマナセの支派の半カナンの地のヨルダンの岸邊にいたるにおよびて彼處にてヨルダンの傍に一の壇を築けりその壇は大にして遥に見えわたる
11 And the sons of Israel hear, saying, “Behold, the sons of Reuben, and the sons of Gad, and the half-tribe of Manasseh, have built the altar at the frontier of the land of Canaan, in the districts of the Jordan, at the passage of the sons of Israel.”
イスラエルの子孫はルベンの子孫ガドの子孫およびマナセの支派の半カナンの地の前の部にてヨルダンの岸邊イスラエルの子孫に屬する方にて一の壇を築けりと言を聞り
12 And the sons of Israel hear, and all the congregation of the sons of Israel is assembled at Shiloh, to go up against them to war;
イスラエルの子孫これを聞と斉しくイスラエルの子孫の會衆ことごとくシロに集まりて彼らの所に攻のぼらんとす
13 and the sons of Israel send to the sons of Reuben, and to the sons of Gad, and to the half-tribe of Manasseh—to the land of Gilead—Phinehas son of Eleazar the priest,
イスラエルの子孫すなはち祭司エレアザルの子ピハネスをギレアデの地に遣はしてルベンの子孫ガドの子孫およびマナセの支派の半の所に至らしめ
14 and ten princes with him, one prince—one prince for a house of a father, for all the tribes of Israel, and each of them a head of a house of their fathers, for the thousands of Israel.
イスラエルの各々の支派の中より父祖の家の牧伯一人づつを擧て合せて十人の牧伯を之に伴なはしむ是みなイスラエルの家族の中にて父祖の家の長たる者なりき
15 And they come to the sons of Reuben, and to the sons of Gad, and to the half-tribe of Manasseh, to the land of Gilead, and speak with them, saying,
彼らギレアデの地に往きルベンの子孫ガドの子孫およびマナセの支派の半にいたりて之に語りて言けらく
16 “Thus said all the congregation of YHWH: What [is] this trespass which you have trespassed against the God of Israel, to turn back today from after YHWH, by your building an altar for yourselves, for your rebelling today against YHWH?
ヱホバの全會衆かく言ふ汝らイスラエルの神にむかひて愆を犯し今日すでに翻へりてヱホバに從がはざらんとし即ち己のために一の壇を築きて今日ヱホバに叛かんとするは何事ぞや
17 Is the iniquity of Peor little to us, from which we have not been cleansed until this day—and the plague is in the congregation of YHWH,
ベオルの罪われらに足ざらんや之がためにヱホバの會衆に災禍くだりたりしかども我ら今日までも尚身を潔めてその罪を棄ざるなり
18 that you turn back today from after YHWH? And it has been [that] you rebel against YHWH today, and tomorrow He is angry against all the congregation of Israel.
然るに汝らは今日ひるがへりてヱホバに從がはざらんとするや汝ら今日ヱホバに叛けば明日はヱホバ、イスラエルの全會衆を怒りたまふべし
19 And surely, if the land of your possession is unclean, pass over for yourselves to the land of the possession of YHWH, where the Dwelling Place of YHWH has dwelt, and have possession in our midst; and do not rebel against YHWH, and do not rebel against us, by your building an altar for yourselves, besides the altar of our God YHWH.
然ながら汝らの所有の地もし潔からずばヱホバの幕屋のたてるヱホバの產業の地に濟り來て我らの中にて所有を獲よ惟われらの神ヱホバの壇の外に壇を築きてヱホバに叛く勿れまた我らに悖るなかれ
20 Did Achan son of Zerah not commit a trespass in the devoted thing, and there was wrath on all the congregation of Israel? And he alone did not expire in his iniquity.”
ゼラの子アカン詛はれし物につきて愆を犯しつひにイスラエルの全會衆に震怒臨みしにあらずや且また其罪にて滅亡し者は彼人ひとりにはあらざりき
21 And the sons of Reuben, and the sons of Gad, and the half-tribe of Manasseh, answer and speak with the heads of the thousands of Israel:
ルベンの子孫ガドの子孫およびマナセの支派の半答へてイスラエルの宗族の長等に言けるは
22 “The God of gods—YHWH, the God of gods—YHWH, He is knowing, and Israel—he knows, if [we are] in rebellion, and if in trespass against YHWH, do not save us this day!
諸の神の神ヱホバ諸の神の神ヱホバ知しめすイスラエルも亦知んもし叛く事あるひはヱホバに罪を犯す事ならば汝今日我らを救ふなかれ
23 [If we] are building an altar for ourselves to turn back from after YHWH, and if to cause burnt-offering and present to go up on it, and if to make peace-offerings on it—YHWH Himself requires [it].
我らが壇を築きし事もし翻がへりてヱホバに從がはざらんが爲なるか又は其上に燔祭素祭を献げんが爲なるか又はその上に酬恩祭の犠牲を獻げんがためならばヱホバみづからその罪を問討したまへ
24 And nevertheless, we have done it from fear of [this] thing, saying, Hereafter your sons speak to our sons, saying, And what have you to [do with] YHWH God of Israel?
我等は遠き慮をもて故に斯なしたるなり即ち思ひけらく後の日にいたりて汝らの子孫われらの子孫に語りて言ならん汝らはイスラエルの神ヱホバと何の關係あらんや
25 For YHWH has put a border between us and you, O sons of Reuben, and sons of Gad—Jordan; you have no portion in YHWH—and your sons have caused our sons to cease, not to fear YHWH.
ルベンの子孫およびガドの子孫よヱホバ我らと汝らの間にヨルダンを界となしたまへり汝らはヱホバの中に分なしと斯いひてなんぢらの子孫われらの子孫としてヱホバを畏るることを息しめんと
26 And we say, Now let us prepare to build the altar for ourselves—not for burnt-offering, nor for sacrifice—
是故に我ら言けらく我らいま一の壇を我らのために築かんと是燔祭のために非ずまた犠牲のために非ず
27 but it [is] a witness between us and you, and between our generations after us, to do the service of YHWH before Him with our burnt-offerings, and with our sacrifices, and with our peace-offerings, and your sons do not say hereafter to our sons, You have no portion in YHWH.
惟し之をして我らと汝らの間および我らの後の子孫の間に證とならしめて我ら燔祭犠牲および酬恩祭をもてヱホバの前にその職務をなさんがためなり然せば汝らの子孫後の日いたりて我らの子孫に汝らはヱホバの中に分なしと言こと無らん
28 And we say, And it has been, when they say [so] to us, and to our generations hereafter, that we have said, See the pattern of the altar of YHWH, which our fathers made—not for burnt-offering nor for sacrifice—but it [is] a witness between us and you.
是をもて我ら言り彼らが我らまたは後の日に我らの子孫に然いはばその時我ら言ん我らの父祖の築きたりしヱホバの壇の模形を見よ是は燔祭のためにも非ずまた犠牲のためにもあらず我らと汝らとの間の證なり
29 Far be it from us to rebel against YHWH, and to turn back from after YHWH today, to build an altar for burnt-offering, for present, and for sacrifice, apart from the altar of our God YHWH, which [is] before His Dwelling Place.”
ヱホバに叛き翻へりて今日ヱホバに從がふことを息め我らの神ヱホバの幕屋の前にあるその祭壇の外に燔祭素祭犠牲などのために壇を築くことは我らの絶て爲ざる所なり
30 And Phinehas the priest, and the princes of the congregation, and the heads of the thousands of Israel, who [are] with him, hear the words which the sons of Reuben, and the sons of Gad, and the sons of Manasseh have spoken, and it is good in their eyes.
祭司ピネハスおよび會衆の長等即ち彼とともなるイスラエルの宗族の首等はルベンの子孫ガドの子孫およびマナセの子孫が述たる言を聞て善とせり
31 And Phinehas son of Eleazar the priest says to the sons of Reuben, and to the sons of Gad, and to the sons of Manasseh, “Today we have known that YHWH [is] in our midst, because you have not committed this trespass against YHWH—then you have delivered the sons of Israel out of the hand of YHWH.”
祭司エレアザルの子ピネハスすなはちルベンの子孫ガドの子孫およびマナセの子孫に言けるは我ら今日ヱホバの我らの中に在すを知る其は汝らヱホバにむかひて此愆を犯さざればなり今なんぢらはイスラエルの子孫をヱホバの手より救ひいだせりと
32 And Phinehas son of Eleazar the priest, and the princes, turn back from the sons of Reuben, and from the sons of Gad, out of the land of Gilead, to the land of Canaan, to the sons of Israel, and bring them back word;
祭司エレアザルの子ピネハスおよび牧伯等すなはちルベンの子孫およびガドの子孫に別れてギレアデの地よりカナンの地に歸りイスラエルの子孫にいたりて復命しけるに
33 and the thing is good in the eyes of the sons of Israel, and the sons of Israel bless God, and have not spoken to go up against them to war, to destroy the land which the sons of Reuben, and the sons of Gad, are dwelling in.
イスラエルの子孫これを善とせり而してイスラエルの子孫神を讃めルベンの子孫およびガドの子孫の住をる國を滅ぼしに攻上らんと重ねて言ざりき
34 And the sons of Reuben and the sons of Gad proclaim concerning the altar, that, “[It is] a witness between us that YHWH [is] God.”
ルベンの子孫およびガドの子孫その壇をエド(證)と名けて云ふ是は我らの間にありてヱホバは神にいますとの證をなす者なりと
