Deuteronomy 18
1 The priests the Levites, all the tribe of Levi, shall have no portion nor inheritance with Israel: they shall eat the offerings of the LORD made by fire, and his inheritance.
祭司たるレビ人およびレビの支派は都てイスラエルの中に分なく產業なし彼らはヱホバの火祭の品とその產業の物を食ふべし
2 They shall have no inheritance among their brothers: the LORD is their inheritance, as he has spoken to them.
彼らはその兄弟の中間に產業を有じヱホバこれが產業たるたり即ちその曾て之に言たまひしが如し
3 This shall be the priests' due from the people, from those who offer a sacrifice, whether it be ox or sheep, that they shall give to the priest the shoulder, and the two cheeks, and the maw.
祭司が民より受べき分は是なり即ち凡て犠牲を献ぐる者は牛にもあれ羊にもあれその肩と兩方の頬と胃とを祭司に與ふべし
4 The first fruits of your grain, of your new wine, and of your oil, and the first of the fleece of your sheep, you shall give him.
また汝の穀物と酒と油の初および羊の毛の初をも之にあたふべし
5 For the LORD your God has chosen him out of all your tribes, to stand to minister in the name of the LORD, him and his sons for ever.
其は汝の神ヱホバ汝の諸の支派の中より彼を選び出し彼とその子孫をして永くヱホバの名をもて立て奉事をなさしめたまへばなり
6 If a Levite comes from any of your gates out of all Israel, where he lives as a foreigner, and comes with all the desire of his soul to the place which the LORD shall choose;
レビ人はイスラエルの全地の中何の處に居る者にもあれその寄寓たる汝の邑を出てヱホバの選びたま處に到るあらば
7 then he shall minister in the name of the LORD his God, as all his brothers the Levites do, who stand there before the LORD.
その人はヱホバの前に侍るその諸兄弟のレビ人とおなじくその神ヱホバの名をもて奉事をなすことを得べし
8 They shall have like portions to eat, besides that which comes of the sale of his patrimony.
その人の得て食ふ分は彼らと同じ但しその父の遺業を賣て獲たる物はこの外に彼に屬す
9 When you have come into the land which the LORD your God gives you, you shall not learn to do after the abominations of those nations.
汝の神ヱホバの汝に賜ふ池にいたるに及びて汝その國々の民の憎むべき行爲を倣ひ行ふなかれ
10 There shall not be found among you anyone who makes his son or his daughter to pass through the fire, one who practices divination, or tells fortunes, or interprets omens, or a sorcerer,
汝らの中間にその男子女子をして火の中を通らしむる者あるべからずまた卜筮する者邪法を行なふ者禁厭する者魔術を使ふ者
11 or who casts spells, or consults a medium or a familiar spirit, or inquires of the dead.
法印を結ぶ者憑鬼する者巫覡の業をなす者死人に詢ことをする者あるべからず
12 For whoever does these things is an abomination to the LORD. And because of these abominations the LORD your God is driving them out from before you.
凡て是等の事を爲す者はヱホバこれを憎たまふ汝の神ヱホバが彼らを汝の前より逐はらひたまひしも是等の憎むべき事のありしに因てなり
13 You shall be blameless before the LORD your God.
汝の神ヱホバの前に汝完き者たれ
14 For these nations, that you shall dispossess, listen to those who practice sorcery, and to diviners; but as for you, the LORD your God has not allowed you so to do.
汝が逐はらふ故の國々の民は邪法師卜筮師などに聽ことをなせり然ど汝には汝の神ヱホバ然する事を許したまはず
15 The LORD your God will raise up to you a prophet from the midst of you, of your brothers, like me. You shall listen to him.
汝の神ヱホバ汝の中汝の兄弟の中より我のごとき一箇の預言者を汝のために興したまはん汝ら之に聽ことをすべし
16 This is according to all that you desired of the LORD your God in Horeb in the day of the assembly, saying, "Let me not hear again the voice of the LORD my God, neither let me see this great fire any more, that I not die."
是まったく汝が集會の日にホレブにおいて汝の神ヱホバに求めたる所なり即ち汝言けらく我をして重てこの我神ヱホバの聲を聞しむる勿れまた重てこの大なる火を見さする勿れ恐くは我死んと
17 The LORD said to me, "They have well said that which they have spoken.
是においてヱホバ我に言たまひけるは彼らの言る所は善し
18 I will raise them up a prophet from among their brothers, like you; and I will put my words in his mouth, and he shall speak to them all that I shall command him.
我かれら兄弟の中より汝のごとき一箇の預言者を彼らのために興し我言をその口に授けん我が彼に命ずる言を彼ことごとく彼らに告べし
19 It shall happen, that whoever will not listen to my words which he shall speak in my name, I will call him to account.
凡て彼が吾名をもて語るところの吾言に聽したがはざる者は我これを罰せん
20 But the prophet, who shall speak a word presumptuously in my name, which I have not commanded him to speak, or who shall speak in the name of other gods, that same prophet shall die."
但し預言者もし我が語れと命ぜざる言を吾名をもて縦肆に語りまたは他の神々の名をもて語ることを爲すならばその預言者は殺さるべし
21 If you say in your heart, "How shall we know the word which the LORD has not spoken?"
汝あるひは心に謂ん我ら如何にしてその言のヱホバの言たまふ者にあらざるを知んと
22 When a prophet speaks in the name of the LORD, if the thing doesn't follow, nor happen, that is the thing which the LORD has not spoken: the prophet has spoken it presumptuously, you shall not be afraid of him.
然ば若し預言者ありてヱホバの名をもて語ることをなすにその言就ずまた效あらざる時は是ヱホバの語りたまふ言にあらずしてその預言者が縦肆に語るところなり汝その預言者を畏るるに及ばす
