Exodus 2
1 And he went a man from [the] house of Levi and he took [the] daughter of Levi.
さて、レビの家のひとりの人が行ってレビの娘をめとった。
2 And she conceived the woman and she bore a son and she saw him that [was] good he and she hid him three months.
女はみごもって、男の子を産んだが、その麗しいのを見て、三月のあいだ隠していた。
3 And not she was able still to hide him and she took for him a basket of papyrus and sealed it she with bitumen and with pitch and she put in it the child and she put [it] among the rush[es] at [the] bank of the River.
しかし、もう隠しきれなくなったので、パピルスで編んだかごを取り、それにアスファルトと樹脂とを塗って、子をその中に入れ、これをナイル川の岸の葦の中においた。
4 And she stood sister his from a distance to know what? will it be done to him.
その姉は、彼がどうされるかを知ろうと、遠く離れて立っていた。
5 And she went down [the] daughter of Pharaoh to bathe at the River and female attendants her [were] walking on [the] side of the River and she saw the basket in among the rush[es] and she sent maid her (and fetched it she *L(abh)*)
ときにパロの娘が身を洗おうと、川に降りてきた。侍女たちは川べを歩いていたが、彼女は、葦の中にかごのあるのを見て、つかえめをやり、それを取ってこさせ、
6 and she opened [it] and she saw him the child and there! a lad [was] crying and she had compassion on him and she said [is] one of [the] children of the Hebrews this.
あけて見ると子供がいた。見よ、幼な子は泣いていた。彼女はかわいそうに思って言った、「これはヘブルびとの子供です」。
7 And she said sister his to [the] daughter of Pharaoh ¿ will I go and will I call? for you a woman a suckling-nurse from the Hebrew [women] so she may suckle for you the child.
そのとき幼な子の姉はパロの娘に言った、「わたしが行ってヘブルの女のうちから、あなたのために、この子に乳を飲ませるうばを呼んでまいりましょうか」。
8 And she said to her [the] daughter of Pharaoh go and she went the young woman and she called [the] mother of the child.
パロの娘が「行ってきてください」と言うと、少女は行ってその子の母を呼んできた。
9 And she said to her [the] daughter of Pharaoh take the child this and suckle him for me and I I will pay wage[s] your and she took the woman the child and she suckled him.
パロの娘は彼女に言った、「この子を連れて行って、わたしに代り、乳を飲ませてください。わたしはその報酬をさしあげます」。女はその子を引き取って、これに乳を与えた。
10 And he grew up the child and she took him to [the] daughter of Pharaoh and he became to her a son and she called name his Moses and she said that from the water I drew him.
その子が成長したので、彼女はこれをパロの娘のところに連れて行った。そして彼はその子となった。彼女はその名をモーセと名づけて言った、「水の中からわたしが引き出したからです」。
11 And it was - in the days those and he grew up Moses and he went out to brothers his and he looked on forced labor their and he saw a man Egyptian striking a man Hebrew one of brothers his.
モーセが成長して後、ある日のこと、同胞の所に出て行って、そのはげしい労役を見た。彼はひとりのエジプトびとが、同胞のひとりであるヘブルびとを打つのを見たので、
12 And he turned thus and thus and he saw that there not [was] a person and he struck down the Egyptian and he hid him in the sand.
左右を見まわし、人のいないのを見て、そのエジプトびとを打ち殺し、これを砂の中に隠した。
13 And he went out on the day second and there! two men Hebrew [were] struggling together and he said to the guilty [one] why? are you striking companion your.
次の日また出て行って、ふたりのヘブルびとが互に争っているのを見、悪い方の男に言った、「あなたはなぜ、あなたの友を打つのですか」。
14 And he said who? did he appoint you to a man a chief and a judge over us ¿ to kill me [are] you saying just as you killed the Egyptian and he was afraid Moses and he thought truly it is known the matter.
彼は言った、「だれがあなたを立てて、われわれのつかさ、また裁判人としたのですか。エジプトびとを殺したように、あなたはわたしを殺そうと思うのですか」。モーセは恐れた。そしてあの事がきっと知れたのだと思った。
15 And he heard Pharaoh the matter this and he sought to kill Moses and he fled Moses from before Pharaoh and he dwelt in [the] land of Midian and he sat at the well.
パロはこの事を聞いて、モーセを殺そうとした。しかしモーセはパロの前をのがれて、ミデヤンの地に行き、井戸のかたわらに座していた。
16 And [belonged] to [the] priest of Midian seven daughters and they came and they drew and they filled the drinking troughs to water [the] flock of father their.
さて、ミデヤンの祭司に七人の娘があった。彼女たちはきて水をくみ、水槽にみたして父の羊の群れに飲ませようとしたが、
17 And they came the shepherds and they drove away them and he arose Moses and he delivered them and he watered flock their.
羊飼たちがきて彼女らを追い払ったので、モーセは立ち上がって彼女たちを助け、その羊の群れに水を飲ませた。
18 And they went to Reuel father their and he said why? did you hurry to come this day.
彼女たちが父リウエルのところに帰った時、父は言った、「きょうは、どうして、こんなに早く帰ってきたのか」。
19 And they said a man Egyptian he rescued us from [the] hand of the shepherds and also carefully he drew for us and he watered the flock.
彼女たちは言った、「ひとりのエジプトびとが、わたしたちを羊飼たちの手から助け出し、そのうえ、水をたくさんくんで、羊の群れに飲ませてくれたのです」。
20 And he said to daughters his and where [is]? he why? this have you left the man invite him so he may eat food.
彼は娘たちに言った、「そのかたはどこにおられるか。なぜ、そのかたをおいてきたのか。呼んできて、食事をさしあげなさい」。
21 And he was willing Moses to dwell with the man and he gave Zipporah daughter his to Moses.
モーセがこの人と共におることを好んだので、彼は娘のチッポラを妻としてモーセに与えた。
22 And she bore a son and he called name his Gershom for he said a sojourner I have become in a land foreign.
彼女が男の子を産んだので、モーセはその名をゲルショムと名づけた。「わたしは外国に寄留者となっている」と言ったからである。
23 And it was in the days many those and he died [the] king of Egypt and they groaned [the] people of Israel from the labor and they cried out and it went up cry for help their to God from the labor.
多くの日を経て、エジプトの王は死んだ。イスラエルの人々は、その苦役の務のゆえにうめき、また叫んだが、その苦役のゆえの叫びは神に届いた。
24 And he heard God groaning their and he remembered God covenant his with Abraham with Isaac and with Jacob.
神は彼らのうめきを聞き、神はアブラハム、イサク、ヤコブとの契約を覚え、
25 And he saw God [the] people of Israel and he knew God.
神はイスラエルの人々を顧み、神は彼らをしろしめされた。
