Judges 20
1 And all the sons of Israel go out, and the congregation is assembled as one man, from Dan even to Beer-Sheba, and the land of Gilead, to YHWH, at Mizpeh.
是に於てイスラエルの子孫ダンよりベエルシバにいたりギレアデの地にいたるまで皆出きたり其會衆一人のごとくにしてミヅパに於てヱホバの前に集り
2 And the chiefs of all the people, of all the tribes of Israel, station themselves in the assembly of the people of God, four hundred thousand footmen drawing sword.
衆民の長たる者すなはちイスラエルの諸の支派の長等みづから神の民の集會に出づ劍をぬくところの歩兵四十萬人ありき
3 And the sons of Benjamin hear that the sons of Israel have gone up to Mizpeh. And the sons of Israel say, “Speak! How has this evil been?”
ベニヤミンの子孫はイスラエルの子孫がミヅパにのぼれることを聞り斯てイスラエルの子孫此惡事の樣を語れと言ければ
4 And the man, the Levite, husband of the woman who has been murdered, answers and says, “My concubine and I went into Gibeah, which [is] of Benjamin, to lodge;
彼殺されし婦の夫なるレビの人こたへていふ我わが妾とともにベニヤミンのギベアに宿らんとて往たるに
5 and the masters of Gibeah rise against me—and they go around the house against me by night—they thought to slay me, and they have humbled my concubine, and she dies;
ギベアの人起りたちて我をせめ夜の間に我がをる家をとりかこみて我を殺さんと企て遂にわが妾を辱しめてこれを死しめたれば
6 and I lay hold on my concubine, and cut her in pieces, and send her into all the country of the inheritance of Israel; for they have done wickedness and folly in Israel;
我わが妾をとらへてこれをたちわり是をイスラエルの產業なる全地に遣れり是は彼らイスラエルにおいて淫事をなし愚なる事をなしたればなり
7 behold, you [are] all sons of Israel; give for yourselves a word and counsel here.”
汝等は皆イスラエルの子孫なり今汝らの意見と思考をのべよ
8 And all the people rise as one man, saying, “None of us goes to his tent, and none of us turns aside to his house;
民みな一人のごとくに起ていひけるは我らは誰もおのれの天幕にゆかずまた誰もおのれの家におもむかじ
9 and now, this [is] the thing which we do to Gibeah: [we go up] against it by lot!
我らがギベアになさんところの事は是なりすなはち鬮にしたがひて之を攻ん
10 And we have taken ten men of one hundred, of all the tribes of Israel, and one hundred of a thousand, and a thousand of a myriad, to receive provision for the people, to do, at their coming to Gibeah of Benjamin, according to all the folly which it has done in Israel.”
我らイスラエルの諸の支派の中に於て百人より十人千人より百人萬人より千人を取りて民の糧食を執せ之をしてベニヤミンのギベアにいたり彼らがイスラエルにおこなひたるその愚なる事にしたがひて事をなさしむべしと
11 And every man of Israel is gathered to the city, as one man—companions.
斯イスラエルの人々皆あつまりて此邑を攻んとせしが其相結べること一人のごとくなりき
12 And the tribes of Israel send men among all the tribes of Benjamin, saying, “What [is] this evil which has been among you?
イスラエルの諸の支派遍く人をベニヤミンの支派の中に遣して言しめけるは汝らの中に此惡事のおこなはれしは何事ぞや
13 And now, give up the men—sons of worthlessness—which [are] in Gibeah, and we put them to death, and we put away evil from Israel.” And [the sons of] Benjamin have not been willing to listen to the voice of their brothers, the sons of Israel;
然ばギベアにをるかの邪なる人々をわたせ我らこれを誅して惡をイスラエルに絶べしと然るにベニヤミンの子孫はその兄弟なるイスラエルの子孫の言を聽いれざりき
14 and the sons of Benjamin are gathered out of the cities to Gibeah, to go out to battle with the sons of Israel.
却てベニヤミンの子孫は邑々よりギベアにあつまりて出てイスラエルの子孫と戰はんとす
15 And the sons of Benjamin number themselves on that day; out of the cities [are] twenty-six thousand men drawing sword, apart from the inhabitants of Gibeah, [who] numbered themselves, seven hundred chosen men;
その時邑々より出たるベニヤミンの子孫を數ふるに劍をぬく所の人二萬六千あり外にまたギベアの居民ありて之をかぞふるに精兵七百人ありき
16 among all this people [are] seven hundred chosen men, their right hand bound, each of these slinging with a stone at the hair, and he does not err.
この諸の民の中に左手利の精兵七百人あり皆能く投石器をもて石を投るに毫末もたがふことなし
17 And the men of Israel numbered themselves, apart from Benjamin, four hundred thousand men, drawing sword, each of these a man of war.
イスラエルの人を數ふるにベニヤミンを除きて劍をぬくところの者四十萬人ありき是みな軍人なり
18 And they rise and go up to Beth-El, and ask of God, and the sons of Israel say, “Who goes up for us at the commencement to battle with the sons of Benjamin?” And YHWH says, “Judah—at the commencement.”
爰にイスラエルの子孫起あがりてベテルにのぼり神に問て我等の中孰か最初にのぼりてベニヤミンの子孫と戰ふべきやと言ふにヱホバ、ユダ最初にと言たまふ
19 And the sons of Israel rise in the morning, and encamp against Gibeah,
イスラエルの子孫すなはち朝おきてギベアにむかひて陣をとりけるが
20 and the men of Israel go out to battle with Benjamin, and the men of Israel set themselves in array [for] battle with them, against Gibeah,
イスラエルの人々ベニヤミンと戰はんとて出でゆきイスラエルの人々行伍をたててギベアにて彼らと戰はんとしければ
21 and the sons of Benjamin come out from Gibeah, and destroy twenty-two thousand men in Israel on that day—to the earth.
ベニヤミンの子孫ギベアより進みいで其日イスラエル人二萬二千を地に撃仆せり
22 And the people, the men of Israel, strengthen themselves, and add to set in array [for] battle in the place where they arranged themselves on the first day.
然るにイスラエルの民の人々みづから奮ひその初の日に行伍をたてし所にまた行伍をたてたり
23 And the sons of Israel go up and weep before YHWH until the evening, and ask of YHWH, saying, “Do I add to draw near to battle with the sons of my brother Benjamin?” And YHWH says, “Go up against him.”
而してイスラエルの子孫上りゆきてヱホバの前に夕暮まで哭きヱホバに問て言ふ我復進みよりて吾兄弟なるベニヤミンの子孫とたたかふべきやとヱホバ彼に攻のぼれと言たまへり
24 And the sons of Israel draw near to the sons of Benjamin on the second day,
是に於てイスラエルの子孫次の日またベニヤミンの子孫の所に攻よするに
25 and Benjamin comes out to meet them from Gibeah on the second day, and destroy eighteen thousand men among the sons of Israel again—to the earth; all these are drawing sword.
ベニヤミンまた次の日ギベアより進みて之にいであい再びイスラエルの子孫一萬八千人を地に撃仆せり是みな劍をぬくところの者なりき
26 And all the sons of Israel go up, even all the people, and come to Beth-El, and weep, and sit there before YHWH, and fast on that day until the evening, and cause burnt-offerings and peace-offerings to ascend before YHWH.
斯在しかばイスラエルの子孫と民みな上りてベテルにいたりて哭き其處にてヱホバの前に坐りその日の夕暮まで食を斷ち燔祭と酬恩祭をヱホバの前に獻げ
27 And the sons of Israel ask of YHWH—and the Ark of the Covenant of God [is] there in those days,
而してイスラエルの子孫ヱホバにとへり（その頃は神の契約の櫃彼處にありて
28 and Phinehas son of Eleazar, son of Aaron, is standing before it in those days, saying, “Do I add to go out to battle again with the sons of my brother Benjamin, or do I cease?” And YHWH says, “Go up, for tomorrow I give him into your hand.”
アロンの子エレアザルの子なるピネハス當時これに事へたり）即ち言けるは我またも出てわが兄弟なるベニヤミンの子孫とたたかふべきや或は息べきやヱホバ言たまふ上れよ明日はわれ汝の手にかれらを付すべしと
29 And Israel sets ones lying in wait against Gibeah, all around,
イスラエル是に於てギベアの周圍に伏兵を置き
30 and the sons of Israel go up against the sons of Benjamin on the third day, and arrange themselves against Gibeah, as time by time.
而してイスラエルの子孫三日目にまたベニヤミンの子孫の所に攻のぼり前のごとくにギベアにむかひて行伍をたてたれば
31 And the sons of Benjamin come out to meet the people; they have been drawn away out of the city, and begin to strike [some] of the people—wounded as time by time—in the highways (of which one is going up to Beth-El, and the other to Gibeah in the field), [are] about thirty men of Israel.
ベニヤミンの子孫民に出あひしが遂に邑より誘出されたり彼等始は民を撃ち大路にて前のごとくイスラエルの人三十人許を殺せりその大路は一筋はベテルにいたり一筋は野のギベアに至る
32 And the sons of Benjamin say, “They are struck before us as at the beginning”; but the sons of Israel said, “Let us flee, and draw them away out of the city, to the highways.”
ベニヤミンの子孫すなはち言ふ彼らは初のごとく我らに撃破らると然るにイスラエルの人は云ふ我等逃て彼らを邑より大路に誘き出さんと
33 And all the men of Israel have risen from their place, and arrange themselves at Ba‘al-Tamar, and the ambush of Israel is coming forth out of its place, out of the meadow of Gibeah.
イスラエルの人々みなその所を起て去りバアルタマルに行伍をたてたり而して伏兵その處より即ちギベアの野原より起れり
34 And they come in from the front against Gibeah—ten thousand chosen men out of all Israel—and the battle [is] grievous, and they have not known that the calamity is reaching toward them.
イスラエルの全軍の中より選拔たる兵一萬來りてギベアを襲ひ其戰鬪はげしかりしがベニヤミン人は葘害の己にのぞむを知ざりき
35 And YHWH strikes Benjamin before Israel, and the sons of Israel destroy in Benjamin, on that day, twenty-five thousand and one hundred men; all these [are] drawing sword.
ヱホバ、イスラエルのまへにベニヤミンを撃敗りたまひしかばイスラエルの子孫その日ベニヤミン人二萬五千一百人を殺せり是みな劍をぬくところの者なり
36 And the sons of Benjamin see that they have been struck—and the men of Israel give place to Benjamin, for they have trusted in the ambush which they had set against Gibeah,
ベニヤミンの子孫すなはち己の撃敗らるるを見たり偖イスラエルの人々そのギベアにむかひて設たる所の伏兵を恃てベニヤミン人を避て退きけるが
37 and the ambush has hurried, and pushes against Gibeah, and the ambush draws itself out, and strikes the whole of the city by the mouth of the sword.
伏兵急ぎてギベアに突いり伏兵進みて刃をもて邑を盡く撃り
38 And the appointed sign of the men of Israel with the ambush was their causing a great volume of smoke to go up from the city.
イスラエルの人々とその伏兵との間に定めたる合圖は邑より大なる黑烟をあげんとの事なりき
39 And the men of Israel turn in battle, and Benjamin has begun to strike the wounded among the men of Israel, about thirty men, for they said, “Surely they are utterly struck before us, as [at] the first battle”;
イスラエルの人々戰陣より引き退ぞくベニヤミン初が程はイスラエルの人々を撃ちて三千人許を殺し乃ち言ふ彼等はまことに最初の戰のごとく我等に撃やぶらると
40 but the volume has begun to go up from the city—a pillar of smoke—and Benjamin turns behind, and behold, the perfection of the city has gone up toward the heavens.
然るに火焔烟の柱なして邑より上りはじめしかばベニヤミン人後を見かへりしに邑は皆烟となりて空にのぼる
41 And the men of Israel have turned, and the men of Benjamin are troubled, for they have seen that the calamity has struck against them—
時にイスラエルの人々ふりかへりしかばベニヤミンの人々葘害のおのれに迫るを見て狼狽へ
42 and they turn before the men of Israel to the way of the wilderness, and the battle has followed them; and those who [are] from the cities are destroying them in their midst;
イスラエルの人々の前より身をめぐらして野の途におもむきけるが戰鬪これに追せまりて遂にその邑々よりいでたる者どもその中に戰死す
43 they have surrounded the Benjamites—they have pursued them—they have trodden them down with ease as far as the front of Gibeah, at the sun-rising.
イスラエルの人すなはちベニヤミン人をとりまきて之を追うち容易くこれを踏たふして東の方ギベアの對面にまでおよべり
44 And eighteen thousand men of Benjamin fall—all these [were] men of valor;
ベニヤミンの仆るる者一萬八千人是みな勇士なり
45 and they turn and flee toward the wilderness, to the rock of Rimmon; and they glean five thousand of their men in the highways, and follow after them to Gidom, and strike two thousand [more] of their men.
茲に彼等身をめぐらして野の方ににげリンモンの磐にいたれりイスラエルの人大路にて彼等五千人を伐とり尚もこれを追うちてギドムにいたりその二千人を殺せり
46 And all those falling of Benjamin are twenty-five thousand men drawing sword, on that day—all these [were] men of valor;
是をもて其日ベニヤミンの仆れし者は劍をぬくところの人あはせて二萬五千なりき是みな勇士なり
47 but six hundred men turn and flee into the wilderness, to the rock of Rimmon, and they dwell in the rock of Rimmon four months.
但六百人の者身をめぐらして野の方にのがれリンモンの磐にいたりて四月があひだリンモンの磐にをる
48 And the men of Israel have turned back to the sons of Benjamin, and strike them by the mouth of the sword out of the city—men even to livestock, even to all that is found; they have also sent all the cities which are found into the fire.
是に於てイスラエルの人々また身をかへしてベニヤミンの子孫をせめ刃をもて邑の人より畜にいたるまで凡て目にあたる者を撃ち亦その至るところの邑々に火をかけたり
