Joshua 23
1 And it comes to pass, many days after that YHWH has given rest to Israel from all their surrounding enemies, that Joshua is old, entering into days,
ヱホバ、イスラエルの四方の敵をことごとく除きて安息をイスラエルに賜ひてより久しき後すなはちヨシユア年邁みて老たる後
2 and Joshua calls for all Israel, for his elderly, and for his heads, and for his judges, and for his authorities, and says to them, “I have become old; I have entered into days;
ヨシユア一切のイスラエル人すなはち其長老首領裁判人官吏などを招きよせて之に言けるは
3 and you have seen all that your God YHWH has done to all these nations because of you, for your God YHWH [is] He who is fighting for you;
我は年すすみて老ゆ汝らは已に汝らの神ヱホバが汝らのために此もろもろの國人に行ひたまひし事を盡く見たり即ち汝らの神ヱホバみづから汝らのために戰ひたまへり
4 see, I have caused these nations who are left to fall to you for an inheritance to your tribes, from the Jordan (and all the nations which I cut off), and the Great Sea [at] the [setting] sun.
視よ我ヨルダンより日の入る方大海までの此もろもろの漏のこれる國々および已に滅ぼしたる一切の國々を籤にて汝らに分ちて汝らの支派の產業となさしめたり
5 As for your God YHWH, He thrusts them from your presence, and has dispossessed them from before you, and you have possessed their land, as your God YHWH has spoken to you,
汝らの神ヱホバみづから汝らの前よりその國民を打攘ひ汝らの目の前よりこれを逐はらひたまはん而して汝らは汝らの神ヱホバの汝らに宣まひしごとく之が地を獲にいたるべし
6 and you have been very strong to keep and to do the whole that is written in the Scroll of the Law of Moses, so as not to turn aside from it right or left,
然ば汝ら勵みてモーセの律法の書に記されたる所を盡く守り行なへ之を離れて右にも左にも曲るなかれ
7 so as not to go in among these nations, these who are left with you; and you do not make mention of the name of their gods, nor do you swear, nor do you serve them, nor do you bow yourselves to them;
汝らの中間に遺りをる是等の國人の中に往なかれ彼らの神の名を唱ふるなかれ之を指て誓はしむる勿れ又これに事へこれを拝むなかれ
8 but you cleave to your God YHWH, as you have done until this day.
惟今日まで爲たるごとく汝らの神ヱホバに附したがへ
9 And YHWH is dispossessing great and mighty nations from before you; as for you, none has stood in your presence until this day;
それヱホバは大にして且強き國民を汝らの前より逐はらひたまへり汝らには今日まで當ることを得る人一箇もあらざりき
10 one man of you pursues a thousand, for your God YHWH [is] He who is fighting for you, as He has spoken to you;
汝らの一人は千人を逐ことを得ん其は汝らの神ヱホバ汝らに宣まひしごとく自ら汝らのために戰ひたまへばなり
11 and you have been very watchful for yourselves to love your God YHWH.
然ば汝ら自ら善く愼しみて汝らの神ヱホバを愛せよ
12 But—if you turn back at all and have cleaved to the remnant of these nations, these who are left with you, and intermarried with them, and gone in to them, and they to you,
然らずして汝ら若後もどりしつつ是等の國人の漏のこりて汝らの中間に止まる者等と親しくなり之と婚姻をなして互に相往來しなば
13 certainly know that your God YHWH is not continuing to dispossess these nations from before you, and they have been to you for a trap, and for a snare, and for a scourge, in your sides, and for thorns in your eyes, until you perish from off this good ground which your God YHWH has given to you.
汝ら確く知れ汝らの神ヱホバかさねて是等の國人を汝らの目の前より逐はらひたまはじ彼ら反て汝らの羂となり罟となり汝らの脇に鞭となり汝らの目に莿となりて汝ら遂に汝らの神ヱホバの汝らに賜ひしこの美地より亡び絶ん
14 And behold, I am going, today, in the way of all the earth, and you have known—with all your heart, and with all your soul—that there has not fallen one thing of all the good things which your God YHWH has spoken concerning you; the whole have come to you; there has not failed of it one thing.
視よ今日われは世人の皆ゆく途を行んとす汝ら一心一念に善く知るならん汝らの神ヱホバの汝らにつきて宣まひし諸の善事は一も缺る所なかりき皆なんぢらに臨みてその中一も缺たる者なきなり
15 And it has been, as there has come on you all the good thing which your God YHWH has spoken to you, so YHWH brings on you the whole of the evil thing, until His destroying you from off this good ground which your God YHWH has given to you;
汝らの神ヱホバの汝らに宣まひし諸の善事の汝らに臨みしごとくヱホバまた諸の惡き事を汝らに降して汝らの神ヱホバの汝らに與へしこの美地より終に汝らを滅ぼし絶たまはん
16 in your transgressing the covenant of your God YHWH which He commanded you, and you have gone and served other gods, and bowed yourselves to them, then the anger of YHWH has burned against you, and you have perished quickly from off the good land which He has given to you.”
汝ら若なんぢらの神ヱホバの汝らに命じたまひしその契約を犯し往て他神に事へてこれに身を鞠むるに於てはヱホバの震怒なんぢらに向ひて燃いでてなんぢらヱホバに與へられし善地より迅速に亡びうせん
