Deuteronomy 31
1 And Moses went, and spake these words unto all Israel;
茲にモーセ往てイスラエルの一切の人にこの言をのべたり
2 and said unto them—A hundred and twenty years old, am I to-day, I can no more go out and come in, —Yahweh indeed hath said unto me, Thou shall not pass over this Jordan.
即ちこれに言けるは我は今日すでに百二十歳なれば最早出入をすること能はず且またヱホバ我にむかひて汝はこのヨルダンを濟ることを得ずと宣へり
3 Yahweh thy God, is passing over before thee, he, will destroy these nations from before thee so shalt thou dispossess them, —Joshua is passing over before thee, as Yahweh hath spoken.
汝の神ヱホバみづから汝に先だちて渡りゆき汝の前よりこの國々の人を滅ぼしさりて汝にこれを獲させたまふべしまたヱホバのかつて宣まひしごとくヨシユア汝を率ゐて濟るべし
4 So will Yahweh do unto them as he did unto Sihon and unto Og, kings of the Amorites, and unto the land of them whom he destroyed.
ヱホバさきにアモリ人の王シホンとオグおよび之が地になしたる如くまた彼らにも爲てこれを滅ぼしたまはん
5 So will Yahweh deliver them up before you, —and ye shall do unto them—according to all the commandment which I have commanded you.
ヱホバかれらを汝らの前に付したまふべければ汝らは我が汝らに命ぜし一切の命令のごとくこれに爲べし
6 Be firm and bold, do not fear nor tremble because of them, —for Yahweh thy God, it is who is going with thee, he will not fail thee nor forsake thee.
汝ら心を強くしかつ勇め彼らを懼るる勿れ彼らの前に慄くなかれ其は汝の神ヱホバみづから汝とともに往きたまへばなり必ず汝を離れず汝を棄たまはじ
7 And Moses called for Joshua, and said unto him, in the sight of all Israel. Be firm and bold, for, thou, shalt go with this people into the land which Yahweh sware unto their fathers to give unto them, and, thou shalt cause them to inherit it.
斯てモーセ、ヨシユアを呼びイスラエルの一切の人の目の前にてこれに言ふ汝はこの民とともに往き在昔ヱホバがかれらの先祖たちに與へんと誓ひたまひし地に入るべきが故に心を強くしかつ勇め汝彼らにこれを獲さすることを得べし
8 But, Yahweh, it is who is going before thee, he will be with thee, he will not fail thee nor forsake thee, —thou must not fear nor be dismayed.
ヱホバみづから汝に先だちて往きたまはんまた汝とともに居り汝を離れず汝を棄たまはじ懼るる勿れ驚くなかれ
9 And Moses wrote this law, and delivered it unto the priests the sons of Levi, who were bearing the ark of the covenant of Yahweh, —and unto all the elders of Israel.
モーセこの律法を書きヱホバの契約の櫃を舁ところのレビの子孫たる祭司およびイスラエルの諸の長老等に授けたり
10 And Moses commanded them, saying, —At the end of seven years in the appointed season of the year of release, during the festival of booths;
而してモーセ彼らに命じて言けるは七年の末年すなはち放釋の年の節期にいたり結茅の節において
11 when all Israel cometh in to see the face of Yahweh thy God, in the place which he shall choose, thou shalt read this law before all Israel, in their hearing.
イスラエルの人皆なんぢの神ヱホバの前に出んとてヱホバの選びたまふ處に來らんその時に汝イスラエルの一切の人の前にこの律法を誦てこれに聞すべし
12 Call together the people—the men and the women and the little ones, and thy sojourner who is within thy gates, —that they may hear, and that they may learn, so shall they revere Yahweh your God, and observe to do all the words of this law;
即ち男女子等および汝の門の内なる他國の人など一切の民を集め彼らをしてこれを聽かつ學ばしむべし然すれば彼等汝らの神ヱホバを畏れてこの律法の言を守り行はん
13 and that their children who know not, may hear and learn, that they may revere Yahweh your God, —all the days that ye are living upon the soil, which ye are passing over the Jordan to possess.
また彼らの子等のこれを知ざる者も之を聞て汝らの神ヱホバを畏るることを學ばん汝らそのヨルダンを濟りゆきて獲ところの地に存ふる日の間つねに斯すべし
14 Then said Yahweh unto Moses: Lo! thy days have drawn near that thou must die. Call Joshua and station yourselves in the tent of meeting, that I may command him. So Moses went, with Joshua, and they took their station in the tent of meeting.
ヱホバまたモーセに言たまひけるは視よ汝の死る日近しヨシユアを召てともに集會の幕屋に立て我かれに命ずるところあらんとモーセとヨシユアすなはち往て集會の幕屋に立けるに
15 And Yahweh appeared in the tent, in a pillar of cloud, —and the pillar of cloud stood, at the entrance of the tent.
ヱホバ幕屋において雲の柱の中に現はれたまへりその雲の柱は幕屋の門口の上に駐まれり
16 Then said Yahweh unto Moses, Lo! thou art about to sleep with thy fathers, —and this people will rise up, and go away unchastely after the gods of the foreigners of the land into the midst of whom they are entering, and will forsake me and break my covenant which I solemnised with them.
ヱホバ、モーセに言たまひけるは汝は先祖たちとともに寝らん此民は起あがりその往ところの他國の神々を慕ひて之と姦淫を行ひかつ我を棄て我が彼らとむすびし契約を破らん
17 Then will mine anger kindle upon them in that day, and I will forsake them and will hide my face from them and they shall be consumed, and many calamities and misfortunes shall find them out, —and they will say, in that day, Is it not because my God is not in my midst, that these calamities have found me out?
その日には我かれらにむかひて怒を發し彼らを棄て吾面をかれらに隱すべければ彼らは呑ほろぼされ許多の災害と艱難かれらに臨まん是をもてその日に彼ら言ん是等の災禍の我らにのぞむは我らの神ヱホバわれらとともに在さざるによるならずやと
18 But, I, will utterly, hide, my face, in that day, because of all the wickedness which they have done, in that they have turned away unto other gods.
然るも彼ら諸の惡をおこなひて他の神々に歸するによりて我その日にはかならず吾面をかれらに隱さん
19 Now, therefore write ye for you this Song, and teach it unto the sons of Israel put it in their mouths, —that this Song may become for me a witness against the sons of Israel.
然ば汝ら今この歌を書きイスラエルの子孫にこれを敎へてその口に念ぜしめ此歌をしてイスラエルの子孫にむかひて我の證とならしめよ
20 When I bring them upon the soil which I sware unto their fathers, flowing with milk and honey, and they shall eat and be filled and wax fat, then will they turn away unto other gods and serve them, and despise me, and break my covenant.
我かれらの先祖たちに誓ひし乳と蜜の流るる地にかれらを導きいらんに彼らは食ひて飽き肥太るにおよばば翻へりて他の神々に歸してこれに事へ我を軽んじ吾契約を破らん
21 And it shall come to pass, when many calamities and misfortunes shall find them out, then shall this Song respond to their face, as a witness, for it shall not be forgotten out of the mouth of their seed, for I know their imagination, which they are forming to-day, ere yet I bring them into the land of which I sware unto their fathers.
而して許多の災禍と艱難彼らに臨むにいたる時はこの歌かれらに對ひて證をなす者とならん其はこの歌かれらの口にありて忘るることなかるべければなり我いまだわが誓ひし地に彼らを導きいらざるに彼らは早く已に思ひ量る所あり我これを知ると
22 Moses therefore wrote this Song on that day, —and taught it unto the sons of Israel.
モーセすなはちその日にこの歌を書てこれをイスラエルの子孫に敎へたり
23 And he commanded Joshua, son of Nun, and said—Be firm and bold, for, thou shalt bring the sons of Israel into the land which I have sworn to them, —and, I, will be with thee.
ヱホバまたヌンの子ヨシユアに命じて曰たまはく汝はイスラエルの子孫を我が其に誓ひし地に導きいるべきが故に心を強くしかつ勇め我なんぢとともに在べしと
24 And it came to pass, when Moses had made an end of writing the words of this law, upon a scroll, —until he had finished them,
モーセこの律法の言をことごとく書に書しるすことを終たる時
25 then Moses commanded the Levites, who were bearing the ark of the covenant of Yahweh, saying:
モーセ、ヱホバの契約の櫃を舁ところのレビ人に命じて言けるは
26 Take this scroll of the law, and put it at the side of the ark of the covenant of Yahweh your God, —so shall it be there in thy midst as a witness.
この律法の書をとりて汝らの神ヱホバの契約の櫃の傍にこれを置き之をして汝にむかひて證をなす者たらしめよ
27 For, I, know thy perverseness, and thy stiff neck, —lo! while I am yet alive with you to-day, ye are, quarrelling, with Yahweh, and how much more after my death?
我なんぢの悖る事と頑梗なるとを知る見よ今日わが生存へて汝らとともにある間すら汝らはヱホバに悖れり况てわが死たる後においてをや
28 Call together unto me all the elders of your tribes and your officers, —and let me speak in their hearing these words, and let me take to witness against them the heavens and the earth.
汝らの諸支派の長老等および牧伯たちを吾許に集めよ我これらの言をかれらに語り聞せ天と地とを呼てかれらに證をなさしめん
29 For I know that after my death, ye will break faith, and turn aside out of the way which I have commanded you, —and calamity will befall you in the afterpart of the days, because ye will do the thing that is wicked in the eyes of Yahweh, to provoke him with the work of your own hands.
我しる我が死たる後には汝ら必らず惡き事を行ひ我が汝らに命ぜし道を離れん而して後の日に災害なんぢらに臨まん是なんぢらヱホバの惡と觀たまふ事をおこなひ汝らの手の行爲をもてヱホバを怒らするによりてなり
30 So Moses spake in the hearing of all the convocation of Israel the words of this Song, until they were ended: —
かくてモーセ、イスラエルの全會衆にこの歌の言をことごとく語り聞せたり
