< 1 Samuel 26 >
1 Then the Ziphites came to Saul at Gibeah, saying, "Look, David is hiding himself on the hill of Hakilah, which is near Jeshimon."
ジフ人ギベアにきたりサウルの許にいたりてひけるはダビデは曠野のまへなるハキラの山にかくれをるにあらずやと
2 Then Saul arose, and went down to the wilderness of Ziph, having three thousand chosen men of Israel with him, to seek David in the wilderness of Ziph.
サウルすなはち起ちジフの野にダビデを尋ねんとイスラエルの中より選みたる三千の人をしたがへてジフの野にくだる
3 Saul camped on the hill of Hakilah, which is before Jeshimon, near the road. But David stayed in the wilderness, and he saw that Saul came after him into the wilderness.
サウルは曠野のまへなるハキラの山において路のほとりに陣を取るダビデは曠野に居てサウルのおのれをおふて曠野にきたるをさとりければ
4 David therefore sent out spies, and understood that Saul had certainly come.
ダビデ斥候を出してサウルの誠に來しをしれり
5 David arose, and came to the place where Saul had camped; and David saw the place where Saul lay, and Abner the son of Ner, the captain of his army: and Saul lay within the place of the wagons, and the people were camped around him.
ここにおいてダビデたちてサウルの陣をとれるところにいたりサウルおよび其軍の長ネルの子アブネルの寝たるところを見たりすなはちサウルは車營の中に寝ぬ民其まはりに陣をはれり
6 Then answered David and said to Ahimelech the Hethite, and to Abishai the son of Zeruiah, brother to Joab, saying, "Who will go down with me to Saul to the camp?" Abishai said, "I will go down with you."
ダビデ答へてヘテ人アヒメレクおよびゼルヤの子にしてヨアブの兄弟なるアビシヤイにいひけるは誰か我とともにサウルの陣にくだらんかとアビシヤイいふ我汝とともに下らん
7 So David and Abishai came to the people by night: and, look, Saul lay sleeping within the place of the wagons, with his spear stuck in the ground at his head; and Abner and the people lay around him.
ダビデとアビシヤイすなはち夜にいりて民の所にいたるに視よサウルは車營のうちに寝臥し其槍地にさして枕邊にありアブネルと民は其まはりに寝たり
8 Then Abishai said to David, "God has delivered up your enemy into your hand this day. Now therefore please let me strike him with the spear to the earth at one stroke, and I will not strike him the second time."
アビシヤイ、ダビデにいひけるは神今日爾の敵を爾の手にわたしたまふ請ふいま我に槍をもてかれを一度地にさしとほさしめよ再びするにおよばじ
9 David said to Abishai, "Do not destroy him; for who can put forth his hand against YHWH's anointed, and be guiltless?"
ダビデ、アビシヤイにいふ彼をころすなかれ誰かヱホバの膏そそぎし者に敵して其手をのべて罪なからんや
10 David said, "As YHWH lives, YHWH will strike him; or his day shall come to die; or he shall go down into battle and perish.
ダビデまたいひけるはヱホバは生くヱホバかれを撃たまはんあるひはその死ぬる日來らんあるひは戰ひにくだりて死うせん
11 YHWH forbid that I should put forth my hand against YHWH's anointed; but now please take the spear that is at his head, and the jar of water, and let us go."
わがヱホバのあぶらそそぎしものに敵して手をのぶることはきはめて善らずヱホバ禁じたまふされどいま請ふ爾そのまくらもとの槍と水の瓶をとれしかして我らさりゆかんと
12 So David took the spear and the jar of water at his head, and they went away. And no one saw it or knew about it, nor did any awake. For they were all asleep, because a deep sleep from YHWH had fallen on them.
ダビデ、サウルの枕邊より槍と水の瓶を取りてかれらさりゆきしが誰も見ず誰もしらず誰も目を醒さざりき其はかれら皆眠り居たればなり即ちヱホバかれらをふかく睡らしめたまふ
13 Then David crossed over to the other side and stood on the top of the hill some distance away; there was a great distance between them.
かくてダビデは彼旁にわたりて遥に山の頂にたてり彼と此とのへだたり大なり
14 And David called to the people, and to Abner, saying, "Will you not answer, Abner?" Then Abner replied, "Who are you that calls?"
ダビデ民とネルの子アブネルによばはりいひけるはアブネルよ爾こたへざるかアブネルこたへていふ王をよぶ爾はたれなるや
15 David said to Abner, "Aren't you a man? Who is like you in Israel? Why then have you not kept watch over your lord, the king? For one of the people came in to destroy the king your lord.
ダビデ、アブネルにいひけるは爾は勇士ならずやイスラエルの中にて誰か爾に如ものあらんしかるに爾なんぞ爾の主なる王をまもらざるや民のひとり爾の主なる王を殺さんとていりぬ
16 This thing isn't good that you have done. As YHWH lives, you are worthy to die, because you have not kept watch over your lord, YHWH's anointed. Now look, where is the king's spear, and where is the jar of water that was by his head?"
爾がなせる此事よからずヱホバは生くなんぢらの罪死にあたれり爾らヱホバの膏そそぎし爾らの主をまもらざればなり今王の槍と王の枕邊にありし水の瓶はいづくにあるかを見よ
17 Saul knew David's voice, and said, "Is this your voice, my son David?" David said, "It is my voice, my lord, O king."
サウル、ダビデの聲をしりていひけるはわが子ダビデよ是は爾の聲なるかダビデいひけるは王わが主よわが聲なり
18 He said, "Why does my lord pursue after his servant? For what have I done? Or what evil is in my hand?
ダビデまたいひけるはわが主なにゆゑに斯くその僕をおふや我なにをなせしや何の惡き事わが手にあるや
19 Now therefore, please let my lord the king hear the words of his servant. If it is so that God has stirred you up against me, let him accept an offering. But if it is from human beings, they are cursed before YHWH; for they have driven me out this day that I shouldn't cling to YHWH's inheritance, saying, 'Go, serve other gods.'
王わが主よ請ふいま僕の言を聽きたまへ若しヱホバ爾を我に敵せしめたまふならばねがはくはヱホバ禮物をうけたまへされど若し人ならばねがはくは其人々ヱホバのまへにのろはれよ其は彼等爾ゆきて他の神につかへよといひて今日我を追ひヱホバの產業に連なることをえざらしむるが故なり
20 Now therefore, do not let my blood fall to the earth away from the presence of YHWH; for the king of Israel has come out to seek my life, as when one hunts a partridge in the mountains."
ねがはくは我血をしてヱホバのまへをはなれて地におちしむるなかれそは人の山にて鷓鴣をおふがごとくイスラエルの王一の蚤をたづねにいでたればなり
21 Then Saul said, "I have sinned. Come back, my son David, for I will not harm you, because my life was precious in your eyes this day. Look, I have behaved foolishly, and have made a great mistake."
サウルいひけるは我罪ををかせりわが子ダビデよ歸れわが生命今日爾の目に寶と見なされたる故により我々かさねて爾に害を加へざるべし嗚呼われ愚なることをなして甚だしく過てり
22 And David answered and said, "Look, the king's spear. Now let one of the young men come over and get it.
ダビデこたへていひけるは王よ槍を視よ請ひとりの少者をしてわたりてこれを取しめよ
23 YHWH will render to every man his righteousness and his faithfulness; because YHWH delivered you into my hand today, and I wouldn't put forth my hand against YHWH's anointed.
ねがはくはヱホバおのおのに其義と眞實とにしたがひて報いたまへ共はヱホバ今日爾をわが手にわたしたまひしに我ヱホバの受膏者に敵してわが手をのぶることをせざればなり
24 Look, as your life was respected this day in my eyes, so let my life be respected in the eyes of YHWH, and let him deliver me out of all oppression."
爾の生命を今日わがおもんぜしごとくねがはくはヱホバわが生命をおもんじて諸の艱難のうちより我をすくひいだしたまへ
25 Then Saul said to David, "You are blessed, my son. You will accomplish much, and will surely be successful." So David went his way, and Saul returned to his place.
サウル、ダビデにいひけるはわが子ダビデよ爾はほむべきかな爾大なる事を爲さん亦かならず勝をえんとしかしてダビデは其道にさりサウルはおのれの所にかへれり
