Exodus 34
1 Yahweh said to Moses/me, “Cut two slabs of stone that will be like the first slabs, the ones that you broke. Then I will engrave on them the words that were on the first slabs.
主はモーセに言われた、「あなたは前のような石の板二枚を、切って造りなさい。わたしはあなたが砕いた初めの板にあった言葉を、その板に書くであろう。
2 Get ready tomorrow morning, and come up to the top of Sinai Mountain again to talk with me there.
あなたは朝までに備えをし、朝のうちにシナイ山に登って、山の頂でわたしの前に立ちなさい。
3 Do not allow anyone to come up with you. I do not want anyone [else] to be anywhere on the mountain. Do not allow any sheep or cattle to graze (at the base of/near) the mountain.”
だれもあなたと共に登ってはならない。また、だれも山の中にいてはならない。また山の前で羊や牛を飼っていてはならない」。
4 So Moses/I cut two slabs of stone that were like the first ones. He/I arose early the next morning. He/I took the slabs and carried them in his/my hands up to the top of Sinai Mountain, as Yahweh had commanded.
そこでモーセは前のような石の板二枚を、切って造り、朝早く起きて、主が彼に命じられたようにシナイ山に登った。彼はその手に石の板二枚をとった。
5 Then Yahweh descended in the [tall] cloud and stood with Moses/me there. He proclaimed that it was he, Yahweh, [who was going to speak to Moses/me].
ときに主は雲の中にあって下り、彼と共にそこに立って主の名を宣べられた。
6 Then Yahweh passed in front of him/me and proclaimed, “I am Yahweh God. I always act mercifully and kindly [toward people]. I do not get angry quickly. I [truly] love [people] and I do what I promise to do for them, without changing.
主は彼の前を過ぎて宣べられた。「主、主、あわれみあり、恵みあり、怒ることおそく、いつくしみと、まこととの豊かなる神、
7 I love people for thousands of generations. I forgive people for all kinds of sins [TRI]. But I will certainly punish [LIT] those who are guilty. I will punish not only them, but I will punish (their descendants, down to the third and fourth generation/their children and grandchildren and great-grandchildren).”
いつくしみを千代までも施し、悪と、とがと、罪とをゆるす者、しかし、罰すべき者をば決してゆるさず、父の罪を子に報い、子の子に報いて、三、四代におよぼす者」。
8 Moses/I quickly prostrated himself/myself on the ground and worshiped [Yahweh].
モーセは急ぎ地に伏して拝し、
9 He/I said, “Yahweh, if you are now pleased with me, I ask that you go with us. These people are very stubborn [IDM], but forgive us for all our sins [DOU], and accept us to be people who belong to you [forever].”
そして言った、「ああ主よ、わたしがもし、あなたの前に恵みを得ますならば、かたくなな民ですけれども、どうか主がわたしたちのうちにあって一緒に行ってください。そしてわたしたちの悪と罪とをゆるし、わたしたちをあなたのものとしてください」。
10 Yahweh replied, “Note this: I am going to make a solemn agreement [with the Israeli people]. As they are watching, I will perform great miracles. They will be miracles that no one has ever done on the earth in any nation. All the people who are near you will see the great things that I, Yahweh, will do. I will do awesome things for you [all].
主は言われた、「見よ、わたしは契約を結ぶ。わたしは地のいずこにも、いかなる民のうちにも、いまだ行われたことのない不思議を、あなたのすべての民の前に行うであろう。あなたが共に住む民はみな、主のわざを見るであろう。わたしがあなたのためになそうとすることは、恐るべきものだからである。
11 [Each Israeli] person must obey what I am commanding you this day. Do not forget that [if you obey me], I will expel the Amor, Canaan, Heth, Periz, Hiv, and Jebus people-groups [from the land]. But be careful that you do not make any [peace] agreements with any of the people who live in the land into which you are going, because if you do that, [you will begin to do the evil things that they do]. It will be [like] falling into a trap.
わたしが、きょう、あなたに命じることを守りなさい。見よ、わたしはアモリびと、カナンびと、ヘテびと、ペリジびと、ヒビびと、エブスびとを、あなたの前から追い払うであろう。
あなたが行く国に住んでいる者と、契約を結ばないように、気をつけなければならない。おそらく彼らはあなたのうちにあって、わなとなるであろう。
13 You must tear down their altars, destroy their sacred pillars, and cut down [the poles that they use to worship their female goddess] Asherah.
むしろあなたがたは、彼らの祭壇を倒し、石の柱を砕き、アシラ像を切り倒さなければならない。
14 You must worship only me, [and] not worship any other god, because I, Yahweh, cannot endure any rivals.
あなたは他の神を拝んではならない。主はその名を『ねたみ』と言って、ねたむ神だからである。
15 Do not make peace agreements with [any group] that lives in that land. When they worship their gods and offer sacrifices to their gods, and they invite you to join them, do not join them. If [you join them], you will eat the food that they sacrifice to their gods, and [you will not be faithful to me. You will be like people who] commit adultery, [who are not being faithful to their spouses] [MET].
おそらくあなたはその国に住む者と契約を結び、彼らの神々を慕って姦淫を行い、その神々に犠牲をささげ、招かれて彼らの犠牲を食べ、
16 If you take some of their women to be wives for your sons, and these women worship their own gods, they will persuade your sons also to worship their gods.
またその娘たちを、あなたのむすこたちにめとり、その娘たちが自分たちの神々を慕って姦淫を行い、また、あなたのむすこたちをして、彼らの神々を慕わせ、姦淫を行わせるに至るであろう。
17 Do not pour melted metal into molds to make statues for you to worship.
あなたは自分のために鋳物の神々を造ってはならない。
18 [Each year], during the month [of/named] Abib, celebrate the Festival of Eating Bread Made Without Yeast. [During that festival], for seven days you must not eat bread made with yeast, as I commanded you, because it was in that month that you left Egypt.
あなたは種入れぬパンの祭を守らなければならない。すなわち、わたしがあなたに命じたように、アビブの月の定めの時に、七日のあいだ、種入れぬパンを食べなければならない。あなたがアビブの月にエジプトを出たからである。
19 Your firstborn sons and the firstborn [male] animals of your cattle and sheep [and goats] belong to me.
すべて初めに生れる者は、わたしのものである。すべてあなたの家畜のういごの雄は、牛も羊もそうである。
20 The firstborn of your [male] donkeys [also belong to me]. But you may buy them back by [offering to me] lambs [in their place]. If you do not do that, you must [kill these animals by] breaking their necks. You must also buy back your firstborn sons. You must bring an offering to me [LIT] each time you come to [worship] me.
ただし、ろばのういごは小羊であがなわなければならない。もしあがなわないならば、その首を折らなければならない。あなたのむすこのうちのういごは、みなあがなわなければならない。むなし手でわたしの前に出てはならない。
21 [Each week] you may work for six days, but on the seventh day you must rest. [Even] during the times when you plow [the ground] and harvest [your crops], you must rest [on the seventh day].
あなたは六日のあいだ働き、七日目には休まなければならない。耕し時にも、刈入れ時にも休まなければならない。
22 [Each year] celebrate the Harvest Festival, when you begin to harvest the first crop of wheat, and also celebrate the Festival of Living in Temporary Shelters, when you finish harvesting [the grain and fruit].
あなたは七週の祭、すなわち小麦刈りの初穂の祭を行わなければならない。また年の終りに取り入れの祭を行わなければならない。
23 Three times each year all the men must come to worship me, Yahweh, the God of the Israeli people.
年に三度、男子はみな主なる神、イスラエルの神の前に出なければならない。
24 I will expel the people-groups that live in the land [where you will be], and I will cause your territory to become very large. As a result, no group will try to conquer your country if you come to worship me each year during those three festivals.
わたしは国々の民をあなたの前から追い払って、あなたの境を広くするであろう。あなたが年に三度のぼって、あなたの神、主の前に出る時には、だれもあなたの国を侵すことはないであろう。
25 When you sacrifice an animal [MTY] to me, do not offer with it bread that is made with yeast. And during the Passover Festival, when you sacrifice lambs, do not keep any of the meat until the next morning.
あなたは犠牲の血を、種を入れたパンと共に供えてはならない。また過越の祭の犠牲を、翌朝まで残して置いてはならない。
26 I am Yahweh God. You must bring to my Sacred Tent the first part of the grain that you harvest each year. When you kill a young animal/kid [either a lamb or a calf], do not [prepare to eat it by] boiling it in its mother’s milk.”
あなたの土地の初穂の最も良いものを、あなたの神、主の家に携えてこなければならない。あなたは子やぎをその母の乳で煮てはならない」。
27 Yahweh also said to Moses/me, “Write down the words that I have told you. By giving you these commands, I have made a solemn agreement with you and with the [other] Israeli people.”
また主はモーセに言われた、「これらの言葉を書きしるしなさい。わたしはこれらの言葉に基いて、あなたおよびイスラエルと契約を結んだからである」。
28 Moses/I was there [on the top of the mountain] with Yahweh for 40 days and nights. During that time he/I did not eat or drink anything [SYN]. He/I engraved on the stone slabs the words of the Ten Commandments, [which were part of Yahweh’s] solemn agreement.
モーセは主と共に、四十日四十夜、そこにいたが、パンも食べず、水も飲まなかった。そして彼は契約の言葉、十誡を板の上に書いた。
29 When Moses/I came back down the mountain, carrying in his/my hand the two stone slabs on which were written the Ten Commandments, his/my face was shining because he/I had been talking with Yahweh, but he/I did not know that his/my face was shining.
モーセはそのあかしの板二枚を手にして、シナイ山から下ったが、その山を下ったとき、モーセは、さきに主と語ったゆえに、顔の皮が光を放っているのを知らなかった。
30 When Aaron and the [other] Israeli people saw Moses/me, they were amazed/surprised that his/my face was shining. So they were afraid to come near him/me.
アロンとイスラエルの人々とがみな、モーセを見ると、彼の顔の皮が光を放っていたので、彼らは恐れてこれに近づかなかった。
31 But Moses/I called to them. Then Aaron and the other Israeli leaders came to him/me, and he/I talked with them.
モーセは彼らを呼んだ。アロンと会衆のかしらたちとがみな、モーセのもとに帰ってきたので、モーセは彼らと語った。
32 Afterwards, all the other Israeli people came near, and he/I told them all the laws that Yahweh had given to him/me on Sinai Mountain.
その後、イスラエルの人々がみな近よったので、モーセは主がシナイ山で彼に語られたことを、ことごとく彼らにさとした。
33 When Moses/I finished talking to the people, he/I put a veil over his/my face.
モーセは彼らと語り終えた時、顔おおいを顔に当てた。
34 But whenever Moses/I entered the Sacred Tent to talk with Yahweh, he/I removed the veil. When he/I came back out, he/I would always tell to the Israeli people everything that Yahweh had commanded him/me [to tell them].
しかしモーセは主の前に行って主と語る時は、出るまで顔おおいを取り除いていた。そして出て来ると、その命じられた事をイスラエルの人人に告げた。
35 The Israeli people would see that Moses’/my face was [still] shining. Then he/I would put the veil back on his/my face again until the next time that he/I went into [the Sacred Tent] to talk with Yahweh.
イスラエルの人々はモーセの顔を見ると、モーセの顔の皮が光を放っていた。モーセは行って主と語るまで、また顔おおいを顔に当てた。
