1 And they came [the] people of - Kiriath Jearim and they took up [the] ark of Yahweh and they brought it to [the] house of Abinadab on the hill and Eleazar son his they consecrated to keep [the] ark of Yahweh.
キリアテ・ヤリムの人々は、きて、主の箱を携え上り、丘の上のアビナダブの家に持ってきて、その子エレアザルを聖別して、主の箱を守らせた。
2 And it was from [the] day dwelt the ark at Kiriath Jearim and they increased the days and they were twenty year[s] and they mourned all [the] house of Israel after Yahweh.
その箱は久しくキリアテ・ヤリムにとどまって、二十年を経た。イスラエルの全家は主を慕って嘆いた。
3 And he said Samuel to all [the] house of Israel saying if with all heart your you [are] turning back to Yahweh remove [the] gods of foreignness from among you and the Ashtaroth and direct heart your to Yahweh and serve him to only him so may he deliver you from [the] hand of [the] Philistines.
その時サムエルはイスラエルの全家に告げていった、「もし、あなたがたが一心に主に立ち返るのであれば、ほかの神々とアシタロテを、あなたがたのうちから捨て去り、心を主に向け、主にのみ仕えなければならない。そうすれば、主はあなたがたをペリシテびとの手から救い出されるであろう」。

そこでイスラエルの人々はバアルとアシタロテを捨て去り、ただ主にのみ仕えた。

サムエルはまた言った、「イスラエルびとを、ことごとくミヅパに集めなさい。わたしはあなたがたのために主に祈りましょう」。
6 And they gathered together Mizpah towards and they drew water and they poured [it] out - before Yahweh and they fasted on the day that and they said there we have sinned to Yahweh and he judged Samuel [the] people of Israel at Mizpah.
人々はミヅパに集まり、水をくんでそれを主の前に注ぎ、その日、断食してその所で言った、「われわれは主に対して罪を犯した」。サムエルはミヅパでイスラエルの人々をさばいた。
7 And they heard [the] Philistines that they had gathered together [the] people of Israel Mizpah towards and they went up [the] rulers of [the] Philistines against Israel and they heard [the] people of Israel and they were afraid of [the] Philistines.
イスラエルの人々のミヅパに集まったことがペリシテびとに聞えたので、ペリシテびとの君たちは、イスラエルに攻め上ってきた。イスラエルの人々はそれを聞いて、ペリシテびとを恐れた。
8 And they said [the] people of Israel to Samuel may not you keep silent from us from crying out to Yahweh God our so he may deliver us from [the] hand of [the] Philistines.
そしてイスラエルの人々はサムエルに言った、「われわれのため、われわれの神、主に叫ぶことを、やめないでください。そうすれば主がペリシテびとの手からわれわれを救い出されるでしょう」。
9 And he took Samuel a lamb of milk one (and he offered up it *Q(K)*) a burnt offering a whole offering to Yahweh and he cried out Samuel to Yahweh for Israel and he answered him Yahweh.
そこでサムエルは乳を飲む小羊一頭をとり、これを全き燔祭として主にささげた。そしてサムエルはイスラエルのために主に叫んだので、主はこれに答えられた。
10 And he was Samuel offering up the burnt offering and [the] Philistines they drew near for battle in Israel and he thundered Yahweh - with a sound great on the day that on [the] Philistines and he routed them and they were defeated before Israel.
サムエルが燔祭をささげていた時、ペリシテびとはイスラエルと戦おうとして近づいてきた。しかし主はその日、大いなる雷をペリシテびとの上にとどろかせて、彼らを乱されたので、彼らはイスラエルびとの前に敗れて逃げた。
11 And they went out [the] men of Israel from Mizpah and they pursued [the] Philistines and they struck down them to from below to Beth Car.
イスラエルの人々はミヅパを出てペリシテびとを追い、これを撃って、ベテカルの下まで行った。
12 And he took Samuel a stone one and he put [it] between Mizpah and between Shen and he called name its Eben-ezer and he said until now he has helped us Yahweh.
その時サムエルは一つの石をとってミヅパとエシャナの間にすえ、「主は今に至るまでわれわれを助けられた」と言って、その名をエベネゼルと名づけた。
13 And they were subdued the Philistines and not they repeated again to come in [the] territory of Israel and it was [the] hand of Yahweh on the Philistines all [the] days of Samuel.
こうしてペリシテびとは征服され、ふたたびイスラエルの領地に、はいらなかった。サムエルの一生の間、主の手が、ペリシテびとを防いだ。
14 And they went back the cities which they had taken [the] Philistines from with Israel - to Israel from Ekron and to Gath and territory their he delivered Israel from [the] hand of [the] Philistines and it was peace between Israel and between the Amorite[s].
ペリシテびとがイスラエルから取った町々は、エクロンからガテまで、イスラエルにかえり、イスラエルはその周囲の地をもペリシテびとの手から取りかえした。またイスラエルとアモリびととの間には平和があった。
15 And he judged Samuel Israel all [the] days of life his.
サムエルは一生の間イスラエルをさばいた。
16 And he went as often as a year in a year and he went round Beth-el and Gilgal and Mizpah and he judged Israel all the places these.
年ごとにサムエルはベテルとギルガル、およびミヅパを巡って、その所々でイスラエルをさばき、
17 And return his [was] Ramah towards for [was] there house his and there he judged Israel and he built there an altar to Yahweh.
ラマに帰った。そこに彼の家があったからである。その所でも彼はイスラエルをさばき、またそこで主に祭壇を築いた。
