Numbers 25
1 And Israel dwells in Shittim, and the people begin to go whoring to daughters of Moab,
イスラエルはシッテムに止まり居けるがその民モアブの婦女等と婬をおこなふことを始めたり
2 and they call for the people to the sacrifices of their gods, and the people eat and bow themselves to their gods,
その婦女等其神々に犠牲を献る時に民を招けば民は往て食ふことを爲しかつその神々を拝めり
3 and Israel is joined to Ba‘al-Peor, and the anger of YHWH burns against Israel.
イスラエルかくバアルベオルに附ければイスラエルにむかひてヱホバ怒を發したまへり
4 And YHWH says to Moses, “Take all the chiefs of the people and hang them before YHWH in sight of the sun; and the fierceness of the anger of YHWH turns back from Israel.”
ヱホバすなはちモーセに告て言たまはく民の首をことごとく携きたりヱホバのためにかの者等を日に曝せ然せばヱホバの烈しき怒イスラエルを離るるあらんと
5 And Moses says to [the] judges of Israel, “Each slays his men who are joined to Ba‘al-Peor.”
是においてモーセ、イスラエルの士師等にむかひ汝らおのおのその配下の人々のバアルベオルに附る者を殺せと言り
6 And behold, a man of the sons of Israel has come, and brings a Midianitess to his brothers before the eyes of Moses and before the eyes of all the congregation of the sons of Israel, who are weeping at the opening of the Tent of Meeting;
モーセとイスラエルの子孫の全會衆集合の幕屋の門にて哭をる時一箇のイスラエル人ミデアンの婦人一箇を携きたり彼らの目の前にてその兄弟等の中に至れり
7 and Phinehas, son of Eleazar, son of Aaron the priest, sees, and rises from the midst of the congregation, and takes a javelin in his hand,
祭司アロンの子なるエレアザルの子ピネハスこれを見會衆の中より起あがりて槍を手に執り
8 and goes in after the man of Israel to the hollow place, and pierces them both, the man of Israel and the woman—to her belly, and the plague is restrained from the sons of Israel;
そのイスラエルの人の後を追て之が寝室に入りイスラエルの人を衝きまたその婦女の腹を衝とほして二人を殺せり是において疫病のイスラエルの子孫におよぶこと止れり
9 and the dead by the plague are twenty-four thousand.
その疫病にて死たる者は二萬四千人なりき
10 And YHWH speaks to Moses, saying,
ヱホバ、モーセに告て言たまはく
11 “Phinehas, son of Eleazar, son of Aaron the priest, has turned back My fury from the sons of Israel by his being zealous with My zeal in their midst, and I have not consumed the sons of Israel in My zeal.
祭司アロンの子なるエレアザルの子ピネハスはわが熱心をイスラエルの子孫の中にあらはして吾怒をその中より取去り我として熱心をもてイスラエルの子孫を滅し盡すにいたらざらしめたり
12 Therefore say, Behold, I am giving My covenant of peace to him,
故に汝言へ我これに平和のわが契約をさづく
13 and it has been to him and to his seed after him [for] a covenant of a continuous priesthood, because that he has been zealous for his God, and makes atonement for the sons of Israel.”
即ち彼とその後の子孫永く祭司の職を得べし是は彼その神のために熱心にしてイスラエルの子孫のために贖をなしたればなり
14 And the name of the man of Israel who is struck, who has been struck with the Midianitess, [is] Zimri son of Salu, prince of the house of a father of the Simeonite;
その殺されしイスラエル人すなはちミデアンの婦人とともに殺されし者はその名をジムリと言てサルの子にしてシメオン人の宗族の牧伯の一人なり
15 and the name of the woman who is struck, the Midianitess, [is] Cozbi daughter of Zur; he [is] head of peoples of a father’s house in Midian.
またその殺されしミデアンの婦人は名をコズビと曰てツルの女子なりツルはミデアンの民の宗族の首なり
16 And YHWH speaks to Moses, saying,
ヱホバ、モーセに告て言たまはく
17 “Distress the Midianites, and you have struck them,
ミデアン人に逼りてこれを撃て
18 for they are adversaries to you with their frauds, [with] which they have acted fraudulently to you, concerning the matter of Peor and concerning the matter of Cozbi, daughter of a prince of Midian, their sister, who is struck in the day of the plague for the matter of Peor.”
其は彼ら謀計をもて汝に逼りペオルの事とその姉妹なるミデアンの牧伯の女すなはちペオルのために疫病の起れる日に殺されしコズビの事において汝らを惑したればなり
