< Jeremiah 41 >
1 Now it happened in the seventh month, that Ishmael the son of Nethaniah, the son of Elishama, of the royal family and one of the chief officers of the king, and ten men with him, came to Gedaliah the son of Ahikam to Mizpah; and there they ate bread together in Mizpah.
七月ごろ王の血統なるエリシヤマの子ネタニヤの子イシマエル王の十人の牧伯等とともにミヅパにゆきてアヒカムの子ゲダリヤにいたりミヅパにて偕に食をなせしが
2 Then arose Ishmael the son of Nethaniah, and the ten men who were with him, and struck Gedaliah the son of Ahikam the son of Shaphan with the sword, and killed him, whom the king of Babylon had made governor over the land.
ネタニヤの子イシマエルおよび偕にをりし十人の者起上りバビロンの王がこの地の有司となせしシヤパンの子アヒカムの子なるゲダリヤを刀にて殺せり
3 Ishmael also killed all the Jews who were with him, with Gedaliah, at Mizpah, and the Chaldeans who were found there, the men of war.
イシマエルまたミヅパにゲダリヤと偕にをりし諸のユダヤ人と彼處にをりしカルデヤ人の兵卒を殺したり
4 It happened the second day after he had killed Gedaliah, and no man knew it,
彼がゲダリヤを殺してより二日の後いまだ誰も之を知ざりし時
5 that there came men from Shechem, from Shiloh, and from Samaria, even eighty men, having their beards shaved and their clothes torn, and having cut themselves, with meal offerings and frankincense in their hand, to bring them to the house of YHWH.
ある人八十人その鬚を薙り衣を裂き身に傷つけ手に素祭の物と香を携へてシケム、シロ、サマリヤよりきたりてヱホバの室にいたらんとせしかば
6 Ishmael the son of Nethaniah went forth from Mizpah to meet them, weeping all along as he went: and it happened, as he met them, he said to them, "Come to Gedaliah the son of Ahikam."
ネタニヤの子イシマエル、ミヅパよりいでて哭きつつ行て彼らを迎へ彼等に逢てアヒカムの子ゲダリヤの許に來れといへり
7 It was so, when they came into the midst of the city, that Ishmael the son of Nethaniah killed them, and cast them into the midst of the pit, he, and the men who were with him.
而して彼ら邑の中に入しときネタニヤの子イシマエル己と偕にある人々とともに彼らを殺してその屍を阱に投いれたり
8 But ten men were found among those who said to Ishmael, "Do not kill us; for we have stores hidden in the field, of wheat, and of barley, and of oil, and of honey. So he stopped, and did not kill them among their brothers.
但しその中の十人イシマエルにむかひ我らは田地に小麥 麰麥油および蜜を藏し有り我らをころすなかれと言たれば彼らをその兄弟と偕に殺さずして已ぬ
9 Now the pit in which Ishmael cast all the dead bodies of the men whom he had killed was a large one that King Asa had constructed in the encounter with Baasha king of Israel. Ishmael the son of Nethaniah filled it with those who were killed.
イシマエルがゲダリヤの名をもて殺せし人の屍を投入れし阱はアサ王がイスラエルの王バアシヤを怖れて鑿し阱なりネタニヤの子イシマエルその殺せし人々を之に充せり
10 Then Ishmael carried away captive all the residue of the people who were in Mizpah, even the king's daughters, and all the people who remained in Mizpah, whom Nebuzaradan the captain of the guard had committed to Gedaliah the son of Ahikam; Ishmael the son of Nethaniah carried them away captive, and departed to go over to the people of Ammon.
イシマエルはミヅパに遺りをる諸の民即ち王の諸女と侍衞の長ネブザラダンがアヒカムの子ゲダリヤに交付しところのミヅパに遺れる諸の民とを擄にせりネタニヤの子イシマエルすなはち彼らを擄にしアンモン人に往んとて去れり
11 But when Johanan the son of Kareah, and all the captains of the forces who were with him, heard of all the evil that Ishmael the son of Nethaniah had done,
カレヤの子ヨハナンおよび彼と偕に在る軍勢の長たちネタニヤの子イシマエルの爲し諸の惡事を聞ければ
12 then they took all the men, and went to fight with Ishmael the son of Nethaniah, and found him by the great waters that are in Gibeon.
その衆卒を率てネタニヤの子イシマエルと戰はんとて出でギベオンの池の旁にて彼に遇ふ
13 Now it happened that, when all the people who were with Ishmael saw Johanan the son of Kareah, and all the captains of the forces who were with him, then they were glad.
イシマエルと偕に在る人々はカレヤの子ヨハナンおよび彼とともに在る軍勢の長たちを見て欣べり
14 So all the people who Ishmael had carried away captive from Mizpah turned about and came back, and went to Johanan the son of Kareah.
是をもてイシマエルがミヅパより擄へきたりし所の人々身をめぐらしてカレヤの子ヨハナンの許にゆけり
15 But Ishmael the son of Nethaniah escaped from Johanan with eight men, and went to the people of Ammon.
ネタニヤの子イシマエルは八人の者と偕にヨハナンを避け逃てアンモン人に往り
16 Then took Johanan the son of Kareah, and all the captains of the forces who were with him, all the remnant of the people whom he had recovered from Ishmael the son of Nethaniah, from Mizpah, after that he had killed Gedaliah the son of Ahikam, the men of war, and the women, and the children, and the eunuchs, whom he had brought back from Gibeon:
カレヤの子ヨハナンおよび彼とともにある軍勢の長等はネタニヤの子イシマエルがアヒカムの子ゲダリヤを殺してミヅパより擄へゆけるところの彼遺れる民すなはち兵卒婦人兒女寺人等を其手より取りかへして之をギベオンより携かへりしが
17 and they departed, and lived in Geruth Kimham, which is by Bethlehem, to go to enter into Egypt,
進てエジプトにいたらんとてベツレヘムの近傍にあるキムハムの住處に往て留れり
18 because of the Chaldeans; for they were afraid of them, because Ishmael the son of Nethaniah had killed Gedaliah the son of Ahikam, whom the king of Babylon made governor over the land.
こはネタニヤの子イシマエルがバビロンの王の此地の有司となしたるアヒカムの子ゲダリヤを殺せしによりカルデヤ人を懼たればなり
