1 Samuel 30
1 And it was when came David and men his Ziklag on the day third and [the] Amalekite[s] they had made a raid against [the] Negev and against Ziklag and they had struck Ziklag and they had burned it with fire.
さてダビデとその従者たちが三日目にチクラグにきた時、アマレクびとはすでにネゲブとチクラグを襲っていた。彼らはチクラグを撃ち、火をはなってこれを焼き、
2 And they had taken captive the women who [were] in it from small and unto great not they had killed anyone and they had driven them away and they had gone to way their.
その中にいた女たちおよびすべての者を捕虜にし、小さい者をも大きい者をも、ひとりも殺さずに、引いて、その道に行った。
3 And he came David and men his to the city and there! [it was] burned with fire and wives their and sons their and daughters their they had been taken captive.
ダビデと従者たちはその町にきて、町が火で焼かれ、その妻とむすこ娘らは捕虜となったのを見た。
4 And he lifted up David and the people which [was] with him voice their and they wept until that not [was] in them strength to weep.
ダビデおよび彼と共にいた民は声をあげて泣き、ついに泣く力もなくなった。
5 And [the] two [the] wives of David they had been taken captive Ahinoam the Jezreelite [woman] and Abigail [the] wife of Nabal the Carmelite.
ダビデのふたりの妻すなわちエズレルの女アヒノアムと、カルメルびとナバルの妻であったアビガイルも捕虜になった。
6 And it was distress to David exceedingly for they said the people to stone him for it was bitter [the] soul of all the people everyone on (sons his *Q(K)*) and on daughters his and he strengthened himself David in Yahweh God his.
その時、ダビデはひじょうに悩んだ。それは民がみなおのおのそのむすこ娘のために心を痛めたため、ダビデを石で撃とうと言ったからである。しかしダビデはその神、主によって自分を力づけた。
7 And he said David to Abiathar the priest [the] son of Ahimelech bring near! please to me the ephod and he brought near Abiathar the ephod to David.
ダビデはアヒメレクの子、祭司アビヤタルに、「エポデをわたしのところに持ってきなさい」と言ったので、アビヤタルは、エポデをダビデのところに持ってきた。
8 And he enquired David by Yahweh saying will I pursue? after the marauding band this ¿ will I overtake it and he said to him pursue for certainly you will overtake [it] and certainly you will rescue [them].
ダビデは主に伺いをたてて言った、「わたしはこの軍隊のあとを追うべきですか。わたしはそれに追いつくことができましょうか」。主は彼に言われた、「追いなさい。あなたは必ず追いついて、確かに救い出すことができるであろう」。
9 And he went David he and six hundred man who [were] with him and they came to [the] wadi of Besor and those [who] were left behind they remained.
そこでダビデは、一緒にいた六百人の者と共に出立してベソル川へ行ったが、あとに残る者はそこにとどまった。
10 And he pursued David he and four hundred man and they remained two hundred man who they were [too] exhausted for passing over [the] wadi of Besor.
すなわちダビデは四百人と共に追撃をつづけたが、疲れてベソル川を渡れない者二百人はとどまった。
11 And they found a man Egyptian in the open country and they took him to David and they gave to him bread and he ate and they gave to drink him water.
彼らは野で、ひとりのエジプトびとを見て、それをダビデのもとに引いてきて、パンを食べさせ、水を飲ませた。
12 And they gave to him a slice of fig cake and two bunches of raisins and he ate and it returned spirit his to him for not he had eaten food and not he had drunk water three days and three nights.
また彼らはほしいちじくのかたまり一つと、ほしぶどう二ふさを彼に与えた。彼は食べて元気を回復した。彼は三日三夜、パンを食べず、水を飲んでいなかったからである。
13 And he said to him David [belong] to whom? you and where? from this [are] you and he said [am] a young man Egyptian I a slave of a man Amalekite and he abandoned me master my if I was sick the day three.
ダビデは彼に言った、「あなたはだれのものか。どこからきたのか」。彼は言った、「わたしはエジプトの若者で、アマレクびとの奴隷です。三日前にわたしが病気になったので、主人はわたしを捨てて行きました。
14 We we had made a raid [the] Negev of the Kerethite[s] and on [that] which [belongs] to Judah and on [the] Negev of Caleb and Ziklag we had burned with fire.
わたしどもは、ケレテびとのネゲブと、ユダに属する地と、カレブのネゲブを襲い、また火でチクラグを焼きはらいました」。
15 And he said to him David ¿ will you take down me to the marauding band this and he said swear! to me by God if you will kill me and if you will deliver up me in [the] hand of master my and I will take down you to the marauding band this.
ダビデは彼に言った、「あなたはその軍隊のところへわたしを導き下ってくれるか」。彼は言った、「あなたはわたしを殺さないこと、またわたしを主人の手に渡さないことを、神をさしてわたしに誓ってください。そうすればあなたをその軍隊のところへ導き下りましょう」。
16 And he took down him and there! [they were] spread out over [the] face of all the land eating and drinking and celebrating in all the plunder great which they had taken from [the] land of [the] Philistines and from [the] land of Judah.
彼はダビデを導き下ったが、見よ、彼らはペリシテびとの地とユダの地から奪い取ったさまざまの多くのぶんどり物のゆえに、食い飲み、かつ踊りながら、地のおもてにあまねく散りひろがっていた。
17 And he struck down them David from the twilight and until the evening of next day their and not he escaped of them anyone that except four hundred man young man who they rode on the camels and they fled.
ダビデは夕ぐれから翌日の夕方まで、彼らを撃ったので、らくだに乗って逃げた四百人の若者たちのほかには、ひとりものがれた者はなかった。
18 And he rescued David all that they had taken Amalek and [the] two wives his he rescued David.
こうしてダビデはアマレクびとが奪い取ったものをみな取りもどした。またダビデはそのふたりの妻を救い出した。
19 And not it was missing to them from the small and unto the great and unto sons and daughters and from [the] booty and unto all that they had taken for themselves everything he brought back David.
そして彼らに属するものは、小さいものも大きいものも、むすこも娘もぶんどり物も、アマレクびとが奪い去った物は何をも失わないで、ダビデがみな取りもどした。
20 And he took David all the sheep and the cattle they drove [them] before the livestock that and they said this [is] [the] booty of David.
ダビデはまたすべての羊と牛を取った。人々はこれらの家畜を彼の前に追って行きながら、「これはダビデのぶんどり物だ」と言った。
21 And he came David to two hundred the men who they had been [too] exhausted - for going - after David and they had left behind them at [the] wadi of Besor and they went out to meet David and to meet the people which [was] with him and he approached David the people and he asked of them to welfare.
そしてダビデが、あの疲れてダビデについて行くことができずに、ベソル川のほとりにとどまっていた二百人の者のところへきた時、彼らは出てきてダビデを迎え、またダビデと共にいる民を迎えた。ダビデは民に近づいてその安否を問うた。
22 And he answered every man evil and worthlessness from the men who they had gone with David and they said because that not they went with me not we will give to them any of the booty which we have recovered that except everyone wife his and children his so they may lead [them] away and they may go.
そのときダビデと共に行った人々のうちで、悪く、かつよこしまな者どもはみな言った、「彼らはわれわれと共に行かなかったのだから、われわれはその人々にわれわれの取りもどしたぶんどり物を分け与えることはできない。ただおのおのにその妻子を与えて、連れて行かせましょう」。
23 And he said David not you must do thus O brothers my [that] which he has given Yahweh to us and he has kept us and he has given the marauding band which came on us in hand our.
しかしダビデは言った、「兄弟たちよ、主はわれわれを守って、攻めてきた軍隊をわれわれの手に渡された。その主が賜わったものを、あなたがたはそのようにしてはならない。
24 And who? will he listen to you to the matter this for like [the] share of - the [one who] went down in the battle and like [the] share of the [one who] remained with the baggage alike they will share.
だれがこの事について、あなたがたに聞き従いますか。戦いに下って行った者の分け前と、荷物のかたわらにとどまっていた者の分け前を同様にしなければならない。彼らはひとしく分け前を受けるべきである」。
25 And it was from the day that and on-wards and he made it into a statute and into a judgment for Israel until the day this.
この日以来、ダビデはこれをイスラエルの定めとし、おきてとして今日に及んでいる。
26 And he came David to Ziklag and he sent some of the booty to [the] elders of Judah to friend his saying here! [is] for you a blessing from [the] booty of [the] enemies of Yahweh.
ダビデはチクラグにきて、そのぶんどり物の一部をユダの長老である友人たちにおくって言った、「これは主の敵から取ったぶんどり物のうちからあなたがたにおくる贈り物である」。
27 For [those] who [were] in Beth-el and for [those] who [were] in Ramoth Negev and for [those] who [were] in Jattir.
そのおくり先は、ベテルにいる人々、ネゲブのラモテにいる人々、ヤッテルにいる人々、
