Joshua 17
1 [This is a list of] the land that was allotted to the tribe of Manasseh. Manasseh’s oldest son was Makir and his grandson was Gilead. Makir’s descendants were great warriors, so the lands in the Gilead and Bashan regions were allotted to their clan.
マナセの支派が籤によりて獲たる地は左のごとしマナセはヨセフの長子なりきマナセの長子にしてギレアデの父なるマキルは軍人なるが故にギレアデとバシヤンを獲たり
2 Land was also allotted to the other clans of the tribe of Manasseh: The clans of Abiezer, Helek, Asriel, Shechem, Hepher, and Shemida.
此餘のマナセの子等即ちアビエゼルの子孫ヘレクの子孫アスリエルの子孫シケムの子孫へペルの子孫セミダの子孫などもその宗族にしたがひて獲る所ありき是等はヨセフの子マナセが男の子にしてその宗族に循ひて言るなり
3 Hepher’s son Zelophehad had no sons, but he had five daughters: Mahlah, Noah, Hoglah, Milcah, and Tirzah.
マナセの子マキルその子ギレアデその子へペルその子なるゼロペハデといふ者は女の子のみありて男の子あらざりきその女の子の名はマヘラ、ノア、ホグラ、ミルカ、テルザといふ
4 They went to Eleazar the Supreme Priest, and to Joshua and to the other Israeli leaders. They said, “[We want you to give us some land, because] Yahweh told Moses that he should give to us some land, just like you gave to the men.” So Eleazar did what Yahweh had commanded, and he allotted to them some land, just like he allotted to their uncles.
彼等祭司エレアザル、ヌンの子ヨシユアおよび長等の前に進み出て言けらく我らの兄弟の中にて我らにも產業を與へよとヱホバ、モーセに命じおきたまへりヨシユアすなはちヱホバの命にしたがひて彼らの父の兄弟の中にて彼らにも產業を與ふ
5 So the tribe of Manasseh eventually had ten sections [of land west of the Jordan River] and [two sections, ] Gilead and Bashan, on the east side of the Jordan [River].
マナセはヨルダンの彼旁にてギレアデおよびバシヤンの地の外になほ十部の地を獲たり
6 So those female descendants of Manasseh also were allotted land [on the west side of the river] just like the men were allotted. The other parts of the Gilead area were allotted to the male descendants of Manasseh.
是はマナセの女の子等もその男の子等の中にて產業を獲たればなりギレアデの地はマナセのその餘の子等に屬す
7 The land allotted to the tribe of Manasseh was between the land where the tribe of Asher lives and Michmethath [town], near Shechem [city]. The border extended south to the Tappuah Spring.
マナセの境界はアセルよりシケムの前なるミクメタテに及び右におもむきてエンタツプアの民に達す
8 The land near the Tappuah area belonged to the tribe of Manasseh, but the town of Tappuah, which was at the border of the land that was allotted to the tribe of Manasseh, was allotted to the tribe of Ephraim.
タツプアの地はマナセに屬す但しマナセの境界にあるタツプアはエフライムの子孫に屬す
9 The border [of the land allotted to the tribe of Manasseh] extended south to Kanah Gorge. From there it extended [west] along the north side of the gorge and ended at the [Mediterranean] Sea.
またその境界カナの河に下りてその河の南に至る是等の邑はマナセの邑々の中にありてエフライムに屬すマナセの境界はその河の北にあり海にいたりて盡く
10 The land on the south side of the gorge belonged to the tribe of Ephraim, and the land on the north side belonged to the tribe of Manasseh. The western border of the land allotted to the tribe of Manasseh was the [Mediterranean] Sea. To the north, the border of their land extended from the land allotted to the tribe of Asher [at the northwest] to the land allotted to the tribe of Issachar [at the northeast.]
その南の方はエフライムに屬し北の方はマナセに屬し海これらの境界を成すマナセは北はアセルに達し東はイツサカルに達す
11 But there are cities inside the area allotted to the tribes of Issachar and Asher. Those cities, along with their surrounding villages, were allotted to people from the tribe of Manasseh. These cities are Beth-Shan, Ibleam, Dor (which is also named Naphoth-Dor, ) Endor, Taanach, and Megiddo.
イツサカルおよびアセルの中にてマナセはベテシヤンとその郷里イブレアムとその郷里ドルの民とその郷里およびエンドルの民とその郷里タアナクの民とその郷里メギドンの民とその郷里など合せて三の高處を有り
12 The men of the tribe of Manasseh were not able to force the people who lived in those cities to leave, so the people of the Canaan people-group continued to live in those cities.
但しマナセの子孫は是らの邑の民を逐はらふことを得ざりければカナン人この地に固く住ひをりしが
13 But [years later] when the Israelis became better [warriors], they forced the Canaan people-group to work for them as slaves, although they did not force them to leave the land.
イスラエルの子孫強くなるに及びてカナン人を使役し之を盡く逐ことはせざりき
14 The people of the tribes of Ephraim and Manasseh said to Joshua, “You allotted to us only one area of land, but there are a lot of us. Yahweh has blessed us very much [with the result that our tribe has grown very large]. So why did you give us only a small part of the land [RHQ]?”
茲にヨセフの子孫ヨシユアに語りて言けるはヱホバ今まで我を祝福たまひて我は大なる民となりけるに汝わが產業にとて只一の籤一の分のみを我に與へしは何ぞや
15 Joshua replied to them, “[I agree that] you do not have enough land in the hilly area of the tribe of Ephraim. So, since you have a lot of people, I will allot more land to you, in the hilly region. But you will have to [cut down the trees] in the forest [and] make a place for yourselves in the land where the Periz and Repha people-groups live.”
ヨシユアかれらに言けるは汝もし大なる民となりしならば林に上りゆきて彼處なるペリジ人およびレバイム人の地を自ら斬ひらくべしエフライムの山地は汝には狭しと言ばなり
16 The people of the tribes of Ephraim and Manasseh replied, “It is true that the land in the hilly area is not big enough for us, but the Canaan people-group who live in the lowlands, in Beth-Shan and the surrounding villages in that area, and in the Jezreel Valley, have iron chariots, [so we will not be able to defeat them]!”
ヨセフの子孫言けるは山地は我らには足ずかつ又谷の地にをるカナン人はベテシヤンとその郷里にをる者もヱズレルの谷にをる者も凡て鐵の戰車を有り
17 Joshua replied to them, “Your tribe is very numerous and very powerful. So I will allot more land for you in the hilly area,
ヨシユアかさねてヨセフの家すなはちエフライムとマナセに語りて言ふ汝は大なる民にして大なる力あり然れば只一籤のみを取てをる可らず
18 but you will have to cut down the trees in order to make a place for you to live. [It is true that] the Canaan people-group are strong and have iron chariots, but you will be able to force them to leave that valley.”
山地をも汝の有とすべし是は林なれども汝これを斬ひらきてその極處を獲べしカナン人は鐵の戰車を有をりかつ強くあれども汝これを逐はらふことを得ん
