< 1 Samuel 27 >
1 David said in his heart, "I shall now perish one day by the hand of Saul. There is nothing better for me except that I escape into the land of the Philistines; and Saul will despair of me, to seek me any more in all the borders of Israel. So shall I escape out of his hand."
ダビデ心の中にいひけるは是のごとくば我早晩サウルの手にほろびん速にペリシテ人の地にのがるるにまさることあらず然らばサウルかさねて我をイスラエルの四方の境にたづぬることをやめて我かれの手をのがれんと
2 David arose, and passed over, he and the six hundred men who were with him, to Achish the son of Maoch, king of Gath.
ダビデたちておのれとともな六百人のものとともにわたりてガテの王マオクの子アキシにいたる
3 So David lived with Achish, he and his men, along with his men and their families, and David with his two wives, Ahinoam of Jezreel, and Abigail of Carmel, Nabal's widow.
ダビデと其從者ガテにてアキシとともに住ておのおの其家族とともにをるダビデはその二人の妻すなはちヱズレル人アヒノアムとカルメル人ナバルの妻なりしアビガルとともにあり
4 Now it was told Saul that David had fled to Gath, so he no longer searched for him.
ダビデのガテににげしことサウルにきこえければサウルかさねてかれをたづねざりき
5 David said to Achish, "If now I have found favor in your eyes, let them give me a place in one of the cities in the country, that I may dwell there. For why should your servant dwell in the royal city with you?"
ここにダビデ、アキシにいひけるは我もし爾のまへに恩を得たるならばねがはくは郷里にある邑のうちにて一のところを我にあたへて其處にすむことを得さしめよ僕なんぞ爾とともに王城にすむべけんやと
6 So he gave him Ziklag that day. (For that reason Ziklag has belonged to the kings of Judah to this day.)
アキシ其日チクラグをかれにあたへたり是故にヂクラグは今日にいたるまでユダの王に屬す
7 The number of the days that David lived in the country of the Philistines was a full year and four months.
タビデのペリシテ人の國にをりし日數は一年と四箇月なりき
8 Now David and his men went up, and made a raid on the Geshurites, and the Amalekites. And look, the land was inhabited from Telem, until you come to Shur, and on toward Egypt.
ダビデ其從者と共にのぼりゲシユル人ゲゼリ人アマレク人を襲ふたり昔より是等はシユルにいたる地にすみてエジプトの地にまでおよべり
9 David struck the land, and saved neither man nor woman alive, and took away the sheep, and the cattle, and the donkeys, and the camels, and the clothing; and he returned, and came to Achish.
ダビデ其地をうちて男をも女をも生し存さず羊と牛と駱駝と衣服をとりて還りてアキシに至る
10 Achish said, "Against whom have you made a raid today?" David would say, "Against the Negev of Judah," or "Against the Negev of Jerahmeel," or "Against the Negev of the Kenizzites."
アキシいひけるは爾ら今日何地を襲ひしやダビデいひけるはユダの南とヱラメルの南とケニ人の南ををかせりと
11 And neither man nor woman would he leave alive to be brought to Gath, thinking, "Otherwise they will tell about us, saying, 'This is what David did,'" and this has been his practice all the time he lived in the country of the Philistines.
ダビデ男も女も生存らしめずして一人をもガテにひきゆかざりき其はダビデ恐くは彼らダビデかくなせりといひて我儕の事を告んといひたればなりダビデ、ペリシテ人の地にすめるあひだは其なすところ常にかくのごとくなりき
12 Achish believed David, saying, "He has made his people Israel utterly to abhor him. Therefore he shall be my servant forever."
アキシ、ダビデを信じていひけるは彼は其民イスラエルをして全くおのれを惡ましむされば永くわが僕となるべし
