2 Samuel 10
1 And it was after thus and he died [the] king of [the] people of Ammon and he reigned Hanun son his in place his.
この後アンモンの人々の王が死んで、その子ハヌンがこれに代って王となった。
2 And he said David I will do covenant loyalty - with Hanun [the] son of Nahash just as he did father his with me covenant loyalty and he sent David to comfort him by [the] hand of servants his concerning father his and they came [the] servants of David [the] land of [the] people of Ammon.
そのときダビデは言った、「わたしはナハシの子ハヌンに、その父がわたしに恵みを施したように、恵みを施そう」。そしてダビデは彼を、その父のゆえに慰めようと、しもべをつかわした。ダビデのしもべたちはアンモンの人々の地に行ったが、
3 And they said [the] leaders of [the] people of Ammon to Hanun lord their ¿ honoring [is] David father your in view your for he has sent to you comforters ¿ not in order to explore the city and to spy on it and to overthrow it has he sent David servants his to you.
アンモンの人々のつかさたちはその主君ハヌンに言った、「ダビデが慰める者をあなたのもとにつかわしたのは彼があなたの父を尊ぶためだと思われますか。ダビデがあなたのもとに、しもべたちをつかわしたのは、この町をうかがい、それを探って、滅ぼすためではありませんか」。
4 And he took Hanun [the] servants of David and he shaved half of beard their and he cut off robes their at the middle to buttocks their and he sent away them.
そこでハヌンはダビデのしもべたちを捕え、おのおの、ひげの半ばをそり落し、その着物を中ほどから断ち切り腰の所までにして、彼らを帰らせた。
5 And people told to David and he sent to meet them for they were the men humiliated very and he said the king remain at Jericho until it will grow back beard your and you will return.
人々がこれをダビデに告げたので、ダビデは人をつかわして彼らを迎えさせた。その人々はひじょうに恥じたからである。そこで王は言った、「ひげがのびるまでエリコにとどまって、その後、帰りなさい」。
6 And they saw [the] people of Ammon that they had made themselves odious with David and they sent [the] people of Ammon and they hired Aram Beth Rehob and Aram Zobah twenty thousand foot soldier[s] and [the] king of Maacah one thousand man and [the] man of Tob two [plus] ten thousand man.
アンモンの人々は自分たちがダビデに憎まれていることがわかったので、人をつかわして、ベテ・レホブのスリヤびととゾバのスリヤびととの歩兵二万人およびマアカの王とその一千人、トブの人一万二千人を雇い入れた。
7 And he heard David and he sent Joab and all the army the warriors.
ダビデはそれを聞いて、ヨアブと勇士の全軍をつかわしたので、
8 And they went out [the] people of Ammon and they deployed battle [the] entrance of the gate and Aram Zobah and Rehob and [the] man of Tob and Maacah to alone them [were] in the open country.
アンモンの人々は出て、門の入口に戦いの備えをした。ゾバとレホブとのスリヤびと、およびトブとマアカの人々は別に野にいた。
9 And he saw Joab that it was against him [the] face of the battle from before and from behind and he chose some of all [the] chosen [men] (of Israel *Q(K)*) and he deployed [them] to meet Aram.
ヨアブは戦いが前後から自分に迫ってくるのを見て、イスラエルのえり抜きの兵士のうちから選んで、これをスリヤびとに対して備え、
10 And [the] rest of the people he put in [the] hand of Abishai brother his and he deployed [them] to meet [the] people of Ammon.
そのほかの民を自分の兄弟アビシャイの手にわたして、アンモンの人々に対して備えさせ、
11 And he said if it will be [too] strong Aram for me and you will become of me deliverance and if [the] people of Ammon they will be [too] strong for you and I will come to deliver you.
そして言った、「もしスリヤびとがわたしに手ごわいときは、わたしを助けてください。もしアンモンの人々があなたに手ごわいときは、行ってあなたを助けましょう。
12 Be strong so we may show ourselves strong for people our and for [the] cities of God our and Yahweh he will do the good in view his.
勇ましくしてください。われわれの民のため、われわれの神の町々のため、勇ましくしましょう。どうぞ主が良いと思われることをされるように」。
13 And he drew near Joab and the people which [was] with him for battle in Aram and they fled from before him.
ヨアブが自分と一緒にいる民と共に、スリヤびとに向かって戦おうとして近づいたとき、スリヤびとは彼の前から逃げた。
14 And [the] people of Ammon they saw that it had fled Aram and they fled from before Abishai and they went the city and he returned Joab from on [the] people of Ammon and he came Jerusalem.
アンモンの人々はスリヤびとが逃げるのを見て、彼らもまたアビシャイの前から逃げて町にはいった。そこでヨアブはアンモンの人々を撃つことをやめてエルサレムに帰った。
15 And it saw Aram that it was defeated before Israel and they gathered themselves together.
しかしスリヤびとは自分たちのイスラエルに打ち敗られたのを見て、共に集まった。
16 And he sent Hadadezer and he brought out Aram which [was] from [the] other side of the River and they came Helam and Shobach [the] commander of [the] army of Hadadezer [was] before them.
そしてハダデゼルは人をつかわし、ユフラテ川の向こう側にいるスリヤびとを率いてヘラムにこさせた。ハダデゼルの軍の長ショバクがこれを率いた。
17 And it was told to David. And he gathered all Israel and he passed over the Jordan and he came Helam towards and they deployed Aram to meet David and they did battle with him.
この事がダビデに聞えたので、彼はイスラエルをことごとく集め、ヨルダンを渡ってヘラムにきた。スリヤびとはダビデに向かって備えをして彼と戦った。
18 And it fled Aram from before Israel and he killed David of Aram seven hundred charioteer[s] and forty thousand horsemen and Shobach [the] commander of army its he struck down and he died there.
しかしスリヤびとがイスラエルの前から逃げたので、ダビデはスリヤびとの戦車の兵七百、騎兵四万を殺し、またその軍の長ショバクを撃ったので、彼はその所で死んだ。
19 And they saw all the kings [the] servants of Hadadezer that they were defeated before Israel and they made peace with Israel and they served them and they were afraid Aram to deliver again [the] people of Ammon.
ハダデゼルの家来であった王たちはみな、自分たちがイスラエルに打ち敗られたのを見て、イスラエルと和を講じ、これに仕えた。こうしてスリヤびとは恐れて再びアンモンの人々を助けることをしなかった。
