< Deuteronomy 26 >
1 And it shall be when thou shalt enter into the land which Yahweh thy God is giving unto thee for an inheritance, —and shalt possess it and dwell therein,
汝その神ヱホバの汝に與へて產業となさしめたまふ地にいりこれを獲てそこに住にいたらば
2 then shalt thou take—of the first of all the fruit of the soil which thou shalt bring in from thy land which Yahweh thy God is giving unto thee and shalt put it in a basket, —and go thy way unto the place which Yahweh thy God shall choose, to make a habitation for his name there.
汝の神ヱホバの汝に與へたまへる地の諸の土產の初を取て筐にいれ汝の神ヱホバのその名を置んとて選びたまふ處にこれを携へゆくべし
3 And thou shalt come in unto the priest who shall be in those days, —and shalt say unto him—I declare to-day unto Yahweh thy God, that I am come into the land which Yahweh sware unto our fathers that he would give unto us.
而して汝當時の祭司に詣り之にいふべし我は今日なんぢの神ヱホバに申さん我はヱホバが我らに與へんと我らの先祖等に誓ひたまひし地に至れりと
4 Then shall the priest take the basket out of thy hand, —and set it down before the altar of Yahweh thy God.
然る時は祭司汝の手よりその筐をとりて汝の神ヱホバの壇のまへに之を置べし
5 And thou shalt respond and say before Yahweh thy God—A Syrian ready to perish, was my father, so he went down to Egypt, and became a sojourner there with men only few; but he became there a nation great, mighty and numerous;
汝また汝の神ヱホバの前に陳て言べし我先祖は憫然なる一人のスリア人なりしが僅少の人を將てエジプトに下りゆきて其處に寄寓をりそこにて終に大にして強く人口おほき民となれり
6 and the Egyptians, badly entreated us, and humiliated us, —and put upon us harsh service;
然るにエジプト人我らに害を加へ我らを惱まし辛き力役を我らに負せたりしに因て
7 so we made outcry unto Yahweh God of our fathers, —and Yahweh hearkened unto our voice, and looked upon our humiliation and our toil, and our oppression;
我等先祖等の神ヱホバに向ひて呼はりければヱホバわれらの聲を聽き我らの艱難と勞苦と虐遇を顧みたまひ
8 and Yahweh, brought us forth, out of Egypt, with a firm hand and with a stretched-out arm, and with great terror, —and with signs and with wonders;
而してヱホバ強き手を出し腕を伸べ大なる威嚇と徴證と奇跡とをもてエジプトより我らを導きいだし
9 and brought us into this place, and gave unto us this land, a land flowing with milk and honey.
この處に我らを携へいりてこの地すなはち乳と蜜との流るる地を我らに賜へり
10 Now, therefore lo! I have brought in the first of the fruit of the soil, which thou hast given unto me, O Yahweh. Thus shalt thou set it down before Yahweh thy God, and shall bow thyself down before Yahweh thy God;
ヱホバよ今我なんぢが我に賜ひし地の產物の初を持きたれりと斯いひて汝その筐を汝の神ヱホバの前にそなへ汝の神ヱホバの前に禮拝をなすべし
11 and shalt rejoice in all the good things which Yahweh thy God, hath given unto thee, and unto thy house, —thou and the Levite, and the sojourner who is in thy midst.
而して汝は汝の神ヱホバの汝と汝の家に降したまへる諸の善事のためにレビ人および汝の中間なる旅客とともに樂むべし
12 When thou shalt make an end of tithing all the tithe of thine increase in the third year the year of tithing, —and shalt give unto the Levite unto the sojourner, unto the fatherless and unto the widow, and they shall eat within thy gates and be satisfied,
第三年すなはち十に一を取の年に汝その諸の產物の什一を取りレビ人と客旅と孤子と寡婦とにこれを與へて汝の門の内に食ひ飽しめたる時は
13 then shalt thou say—before Yahweh thy God: —I have carefully removed that which was hallowed out of the house moreover also I have given it unto the Levite, and unto the sojourner unto the fatherless and unto the widow, according to all thy commandment which thou hast commanded me, —I have not transgressed any of thy commandments neither have I forgotten,
汝の神ヱホバの前に言べし我は聖物を家より執いだしまたレビ人と客旅と孤子と寡婦とにこれを與へ全く汝が我に命じたまひし命令のごとくせり我は汝の命令に背かずまたこれを忘れざるなり
14 I have not eaten in my sorrow therefrom neither have I removed therefrom when unclean, neither have I given thereof unto the dead, —I have hearkened unto the voice of Yahweh my God, I have done according to all which thou hast commanded me.
我はこの聖物を喪の中に食ひし事なくをた汚穢たる身をもて之を携へ出しし事なくまた死人のためにこれを贈りし事なきなり我はわが神ヱホバの言に聽したがひて凡て汝が我に命じたまへるごとく行へり
15 Look thou down out of thy holy habitation out of the heavens and bless thy people Israel, and the soil which thou hast given unto us, —as thou didst swear unto our fathers, a land flowing with milk and honey.
願くは汝の聖住所なる天より臨み觀汝の民イスラエルと汝の我らに與へし地とに福祉をくだしたまへ是は我がわれらの先祖等に誓ひたまひし乳と蜜との流るる地なり
16 This day, is Yahweh thy God commanding thee to do these statutes and the regulations, —thou shalt therefore observe and do them, with all thy heart and with all thy soul.
今日汝の神ヱホバこれらの法度と律法とを行ふことを汝に命じたまふ然ば汝心を盡し精心を盡してこれを守りおこなふべし
17 Thou hast avowed to-day that Yahweh, shall be, thy God, and that thou wilt walk in his ways, and keep his statutes and his commandments and his regulations and wilt hearken unto his voice.
今日なんぢヱホバを認めて汝の神となし且その道に歩みその法度と誡法と律法とを守りその聲に聽したがはんと言り
18 And, Yahweh, hath avowed to-day that thou shalt be, his people, as a treasure, as he spake unto thee, —and that thou shalt observe all his commandments;
今日ヱホバまたその言しごとく汝を認めてその寶の民となし且汝にその諸の誡命を守れと言たまへり
19 and [hath avowed] that he will set thee on high above all the nations which he hath made, for praise, and for renown and for glory, and that thou shalt be a holy people unto Yahweh thy God as he hath spoken.
ヱホバ汝の名譽と聲聞と榮耀とをしてその造れる諸の國の人にまさらしめたまはん汝はその神ヱホバの聖民となることその言たまひしごとくならん
