1 Samuel 18
1 It happened, when he had made an end of speaking to Saul, that the soul of Jonathan was knit with the soul of David, and Jonathan loved him as his own soul.
ダビデ、サウルにかたることを終しときヨナタンの心ダビデの心にむすびつきてヨナタンおのれの命のごとくダビデを愛せり
2 Saul took him that day, and would let him go no more home to his father's house.
此日サウル、ダビデをかかへて父の家にかへらしめず
3 Then Jonathan and David made a covenant, because he loved him as his own soul.
ヨナタンおのれの命のごとくダビデを愛せしかばヨナタンとダビデ契約をむすべり
4 Jonathan stripped himself of the robe that was on him, and gave it to David, and his armor, and even his sword and his bow and his belt.
ヨナタンおのれの衣たる明衣を脱てダビデにあたふ其戎衣および其刀も弓も帶もまたしかせり
5 Then Saul set him over the men of war, and David went out, succeeding wherever Saul sent him. And it was good in the sight of all the people, and also in the sight of Saul's servants.
ダビデは凡てサウルが遣はすところにいでゆきて功をあらはしければサウルかれを兵隊の長となせりしかしてダビデ民の心にかなひ又サウルの僕の心にもかなふ
6 It happened as they came, when David returned from the slaughter of the Philistine, that the women came out of all the cities of Israel, singing and dancing, to meet king Saul, with tambourines, with joy, and with instruments of music.
衆人かへりきたれる時すなはちダビデ、ペリシテ人をころして還れる時婦女イスラエルの邑々よりいできたり鼗と祝歌と磬をもちて歌ひまひつつサウル王を迎ふ
7 The women sang one to another as they played, and said, "Saul has slain his thousands, David his ten thousands."
婦人踊躍つつ相こたへて歌ひけるはサウルは千をうち殺しダビデは萬をうちころすと
8 Saul was very angry, and this saying displeased him; and he said, "They have ascribed to David ten thousands, and to me they have ascribed but thousands. What can he have more but the kingdom?"
サウル甚だ怒りこの言をよろこばずしていひけるは萬をダビデに歸し千をわれに歸す此上かれにあたふべき者は唯國のみと
9 Saul viewed David with suspicion from that day and forward.
サウルこの日より後ダビデを目がけたり
10 It happened on the next day, that a harmful spirit from God came mightily on Saul, and he prophesied in the midst of the house. David played with his hand, as he did day by day. Saul had his spear in his hand;
次の日神より出たる惡鬼サウルにのぞみてサウル家のなかにて預言したりしかばダビデ故のごとく手をもつて琴をひけり時にサウルの手に投槍ありければ
11 and Saul threw the spear; for he said, "I will pin David even to the wall." David escaped from his presence twice.
サウル我ダビデを壁に刺とほさんといひて其投槍をさしあげしがダビデ二度身をかはしてサウルをさけたり
12 Saul was afraid of David, because Jehovah was with him, and had departed from Saul.
ヱホバ、サウルをはなれてダビデと共にいますによりてサウル彼をおそれたり
13 Therefore Saul removed him from him, and made him his captain over a thousand; and he went out and came in before the people.
是故にサウル彼を遠ざけて千夫長となせりダビデすなはち民のまへに出入す
14 David behaved himself wisely in all his ways; and Jehovah was with him.
またダビデすべて其ゆくところにて功をあらはし且ヱホバかれとともにいませり
15 When Saul saw that he behaved himself very wisely, he stood in awe of him.
サウル、ダビデが大に功をあらはすをみてこれを恐れたり
16 But all Israel and Judah loved David; for he went out and came in before them.
しかれどもイスラエルとユダの人はみなダビデを愛せり彼が其前に出入するによりてなり
17 Saul said to David, "Look, my elder daughter Merob, I will give her to you as wife. Only be valiant for me, and fight Jehovah's battles." For Saul said, "Do not let my hand be on him, but let the hand of the Philistines be on him."
サウル、ダビデにいひけるはわれわが長女メラブを汝に妻さん汝ただわがために勇みヱホバの軍に戰ふべしと其はサウルわが手にてかれを殺さでペリシテ人の手にてころさんとおもひたればなり
18 David said to Saul, "Who am I, and what is my life, or my father's family in Israel, that I should be son-in-law to the king?"
ダビデ、サウルにいひけるは我は誰ぞわが命はなんぞわが父の家はイスラエルにおいて何なる者ぞや我いかでか王の婿となるべけんと
19 But it happened at the time when Merob, Saul's daughter, should have been given to David, that she was given to Adriel the Meholathite as wife.
然るにサウルの女子メラブはダビデに嫁ぐべき時におよびてメホラ人アデリエルに妻されたり
20 Mikal, Saul's daughter, loved David; and they told Saul, and the thing pleased him.
サウルの女ミカル、ダビデを愛す人これを王に告ければサウル其事を善しとせり
21 And Saul thought, "I will give her to him, that she may be a snare to him, and that the hand of the Philistines may be against him." Therefore Saul said to David, "You shall this day be my son-in-law a second time."
サウルいひけるは我ミカルをかれにあたへて彼を謀る手段となしペリシテ人の手にてかれを殺さんといひてサウル、ダビデにいひけるは汝今日ふたたびわが婿となるべし
22 Then Saul commanded his servants, "Talk with David secretly, and say, 'Look, the king has delight in you, and all his servants love you. So now therefore be the king's son-in-law.'"
かくてサウル其僕に命じけるは汝ら密にダビデにかたりて言へ視よ王汝を悦び王の僕みな汝を愛すされば汝王の婿となるべしと
23 Saul's servants spoke those words in the ears of David. David said, "Does it seems to you a little thing to be the king's son-in-law, since I am a poor man, and insignificant?"
サウルの僕此言をダビデの耳に語りしかばダビデいひけるは王の婿となること汝らの目には易き事とみゆるや且われは貧しく賤しき者なりと
24 The servants of Saul told him, saying, "David spoke like this."
サウルの僕サウルにつげてダビデ是の如くかたれりといへり
25 Saul said, "You shall tell David, 'The king desires no dowry except one hundred foreskins of the Philistines, to be avenged of the king's enemies.'" Now Saul thought to make David fall by the hand of the Philistines.
サウルいひけるはなんぢらかくダビデにいへ王は聘禮を望まずただペリシテ人の陽皮一百をえて王の仇をむくいんことを望むと是はサウル、ダビデをペリシテ人の手に殞沒しめんとおもへるなり
26 When his servants told David these words, it pleased David well to be the king's son-in-law. The days were not expired;
サウルの僕此言をダビデにつげしかばダビデは王の婿となることを善とせり斯て其時いまだ滿ざるあひだに
27 and David arose and went, he and his men, and killed of the Philistines one hundred men; and David brought their foreskins, and they gave them in full number to the king, that he might be the king's son-in-law. Then Saul gave him Mikal his daughter as wife.
ダビデ起て其從者とともにゆきペリシテ人二百人をころして其陽皮をたづさへきたり之を悉く王にささげて王の婿とならんとすサウル乃はち其女ミカルをダビデに妻せたり
28 When Saul saw and knew that Jehovah was with David, and that all Israel loved him,
サウル見てヱホバのダビデとともにいますを知りぬまたサウルの女ミカルはダビデを愛せり
29 then he was even more afraid of David. So Saul was David's enemy continually.
サウルさらにますますダビデを恐れサウル一生のあひだダビデの敵となれり
30 Then the leaders of the Philistines went forth: and it happened, as often as they went forth, that David behaved himself more wisely than all the servants of Saul; so that his name was highly esteemed.
爰にペリシテ人の諸伯攻きたりしがダビデかれらが攻めきたるごとにサウルの諸の臣僕よりは多の功をたてしかば其名はなはだ尊まる
