< Exodus 14 >

1 Then spake Yahweh unto Moses, saying:
茲にヱホバ、モーセに告ていひ給ひけるは
2 Speak unto the sons of Israel, that they turn back and encamp before Pi-hahiroth, between Migdol and the sea, —before Baal-zephon, over against it, shall ye encamp, by the sea.
イスラエルの子孫に言て轉回てミグドルと海の間なるピハヒロテの前にあたりてバアルゼポンの前に幕を張しめよ其にむかひて海の傍に幕を張るべし
3 Then will Pharaoh say, of the sons of Israel, Entangled, they are in the land, —the desert hath closed in upon them.
パロ、イスラエルの子孫の事をかたりて彼等はその地に迷ひをりて曠野に閉こめられたるならんといふべければなり
4 So will I let the heart of Pharaoh wax bold, and he will pursue them, that I may get me honour over Pharaoh, and over all his forces, and the Egyptians shall know, that I, am Yahweh. And they did so.
我パロの心を剛愎にすべければパロ彼等の後を追はん我パロとその凡の軍勢に由て譽を得エジプト人をして吾ヱホバなるを知しめんと彼等すなはち斯なせり
5 And it was told the king of Egypt, that the people had fled, —and the heart of Pharaoh and his servants was turned against the people, and they said—What is this we have done, that we have let Israel go from serving us?
茲に民の逃さりたることエジプト王に聞えければパロとその臣下等民の事につきて心を變じて言ふ我等何て斯イスラエルを去しめて我に事ざらしむるがごとき事をなしたるやと
6 So he yoked his chariot, —and his people, took he with him.
パロすなはちその車を備へ民を將て己にしたがはしめ
7 And he took six hundred chosen chariots, and all the chariots of Egypt, —with warriors in every one.
撰抜の戰車六百兩にエジプトの諸の戰車および其の諸の軍長等を率ゐたり
8 And Yahweh let the heart of Pharaoh king of Egypt wax bold, and he pursued the sons of Israel, —when the sons of Israel, were going out with a high hand.
ヱホバ、エジプト王パロの心を剛愎にしたまひたれば彼イスラエルの子孫の後を追ふイスラエルの子孫は高らかなる手によりて出しなり
9 So the Egyptians pursued them and overtook them, encamping by the sea—all the horses and chariots of Pharaoh, and his horsemen, and his forces, —by Pi-hahiroth, before Baal-zephon.
エジプト人等パロの馬、車およびその騎兵と軍勢彼等の後を追てそのバアルゼポンの前なるピハヒロテの邊にて海の傍に幕を張るに追つけり
10 Now when, Pharaoh, had drawn near, the sons of Israel lifted up their eyes, and lo! the Egyptians, moving along after them and they feared greatly, and the sons of Israel made outcry unto Yahweh.
パロの近よりし時イスラエルの子孫目をあげて視しにエジプト人己の後に進み來りしかば痛く懼れたり是に於てイスラエルの子孫ヱホバに呼號り
11 Then said they unto Moses, Was it because there were no graves in Egypt, that thou didst fetch us to die in the desert? What is this thou hast done to us, bringing us forth out of Egypt?
且モーセに言けるはエジプトに墓のあらざるがために汝われらをたづさへいだして曠野に死しむるや何故に汝われらをエジプトより導き出して斯我らに爲や
12 Is not this the word which we spake unto thee in Egypt, saying, Let us alone, that we may serve the Egyptians, —for it is better for us, to serve the Egyptians, than to die in the desert?
我等がエジプトにて汝に告て我儕を棄おき我らをしてエジプト人に事しめよと言し言は是ならずや其は曠野にて死るよりもエジプト人に事るは善ればなり
13 And Moses said unto the people—Do not fear, stand still and see the salvation of Yahweh, which he will work for you to-day, —for as for the Egyptians whom ye have seen to-day, ye shall not again see them any more to times age-abiding.
モーセ民にいひけるは汝ら懼るるなかれ立てヱホバが今日汝等のために爲たまはんところの救を見よ汝らが今日見たるエジプト人をば汝らかさねて復これを見ること絶てなかるべきなり
14 Yahweh, will fight for you, —and, ye, shall forbear.
ヱホバ汝等のために戰ひたまはん汝等は靜りて居るべし
15 And Yahweh said unto Moses, What outcry wouldst thou make unto me? Speak unto the sons of Israel, that they go forward;
時にヱホバ、モーセにいひたまひけるは汝なんぞ我に呼はるやイスラエルの子孫に言て進みゆかしめよ
16 and, thou, lift high thy staff and stretch forth thy hand over the sea and cleave it asunder, —that the sons of Israel may enter into the midst of the sea on dry ground;
汝杖を擧げ手を海の上に伸て之を分ちイスラエルの子孫をして海の中の乾ける所を往しめよ
17 and, I, behold me letting the heart of the Egyptians wax bold, that they may enter after them, —that I may get me honour over Pharaoh and over his forces, over his chariots, and over his horsemen,
我エジプト人の心を剛愎にすべければ彼等その後にしたがひて入るべし我かくしてパロとその諸の軍勢およびそ戰車と騎兵に囚て榮譽を得ん
18 And the Egyptians shall know, that, I, am Yahweh, —when I have gotten me honour over Pharaoh, over his chariots and over his horsemen.
我がパロとその戰車と騎兵とによりて榮譽をえん時エジプト人は我のヱホバなるを知ん
19 And the messenger of God who was going on before the camp of Israel removed, and came on behind them, —and the pillar of cloud removed from before them, and stood behind them;
爰にイスラエルの陣營の前に行る神の使者移りてその後に行けり即ち雲の柱その前面をはなれて後に立ち
20 so it came in between the camp of the Egyptians and the camp of Israel, so it became a cloud and darkness, and yet lighted up the night, —so that the one came not near unto the other, all the night.
エジプト人の陣營とイスラエル人の陣營の間に至りけるが彼がためには雲となり暗となり是がためには夜を照せり是をもて彼と是と夜の中に相近づかざりき
21 And Moses stretched forth his hand over the sea, and Yahweh carried away the sea by a mighty east wind all the night, and turned the sea into dry land, —and the waters were cloven asunder.
モーセ手を海の上に伸ければヱホバ終夜強き東風をもて海を退かしめ海を陸地となしたまひて水遂に分れたり
22 Then went the sons of Israel into the midst of the sea on the dry ground, —and, the waters, to them, were a wall, on their right hand and on their left.
イスラエルの子孫海の中の乾ける所を行くに水は彼等の右左に墻となれり
23 And the Egyptians pursued, and entered after them—all the horses of Pharaoh his chariots and his horsemen, —into the midst of the sea.
エジプト人等パロの馬車、騎兵みなその後にしたがひて海の中に入る
24 And it came to pass in the morning watch, that Yahweh looked down into the camp of the Egyptians, through the pillar of fire and cloud, and confused the camp of the Egyptians;
暁にヱホバ火と雲との柱の中よりエジプト人の軍勢を望みエジプト人の軍勢を惱まし
25 and he took off the wheels of their chariots, and made them drive heavily, —so that the Egyptians said—We must flee from the face of Israel, for Yahweh, is fighting for them against the Egyptians.
其車の輪を脱して行に重くならしめたまひければエジプト人言ふ我儕イスラエルを離れて逃ん其はヱホバかれらのためにエジプト人と戰へばなりと
26 Then said Yahweh unto Moses, Stretch forth thy hand over the sea, —that the waters may return upon the Egyptians, upon their chariots, and upon their horsemen.
時にヱホバ、モーセに言たまひける汝の手を海の上に伸て水をエジプト人とその戰車と騎兵の上に流れ反らしめよと
27 So Moses stretched forth his hand over the sea and the sea returned, towards morning, to its steady flow, when the Egyptians, were fleeing to meet it, —thus Yahweh shook off the Egyptians into the midst of the sea;
モーセすなはち手を海の上に伸けるに夜明におよびて海本の勢力にかへりたればエジプト人之に逆ひて逃たりしがヱホバ、エジプト人を海の中に擲ちたまへり
28 thus the waters returned and covered the chariots, and the horsemen, even all the forces of Pharaoh that were entering after them into the sea, —there was not left remaining among them so much as one.
即ち水流反りて戰車と騎兵を覆ひイスラエルの後にしたがひて海にいりしパロの軍勢を悉く覆へり一人も遺れる者あらざりき
29 But the sons of Israel, had gone their way on dry ground in the saidst of the sea, —and the waters had been to them a wall, on their right hand and on their left.
然どイスラエルの子孫は海の中の乾ける所を歩みしが水はその右左に墻となれり
30 Thus did Yahweh, on that day, save Israel, out of the hand of the Egyptians, —and Israel saw the Egyptians, dead on the shore of the sea.
斯ヱホバこの日イスラエルをエジプト人の手より救ひたまへりイスラエルはエジプト人が海邊に死をるを見たり
31 And when Israel saw the mighty hand wherewith Yahweh had wrought against the Egyptians, then did the people revere Yahweh, —and they put their trust in Yahweh, and in Moses, his servant.
イスラエルまたヱホバがエジプト人に爲たまひし大なる事を見たり是に於て民ヱホバを畏れヱホバとその僕モーセを信じたり
