< Judges 10 >
1 After Abimelech died, Tola the son of Puah and grandson of Dodo became the leader to rescue the Israeli people [from their enemies]. He belonged to the tribe of Issachar, but he lived in Shamir [city] in the hilly area where the descendants of Ephraim live.
アビメレクの後イッサカルの人にてドドの子なるプワの子トラ起りてイスラエルを救ふ彼エフライムの山のシヤミルに住み
2 He ruled the Israeli people for 23 years. Then he died and was buried in Shamir.
二十三年の間イスラエルを審判しがつひに死てシヤミルに葬らる
3 After Tola died, Jair, from [the] Gilead [region], became the Israelis’ leader, and he ruled them for 22 years.
彼の後にギレアデ人ヤイル起りて二十二年の間イスラエルを審判たり
4 He had thirty sons, and each of them had his own donkey to ride on. They each controlled a different town in [the] Gilead [region]. That region is still named ‘The Towns of Jair’.
彼に子三十人ありて三十の驢馬に乗る彼等三十の邑を有りギレアデの地において今日までヤイルの村ととなふるものすなはち是なり
5 When Jair died, he was buried in Kamon [city].
ヤイル死てカモンに葬らる
6 Again the Israelis did things that Yahweh said were wrong/evil. They worshiped [the idols of their god] Baal and [their goddess] Astarte. They also worshiped the gods of the Aram, Sidon, Moab, and Ammon people-groups, and the gods of the Philistia people-group. They abandoned Yahweh and stopped worshiping him.
イスラエルの子孫ふたたびヱホバの目のまへに惡を爲しバアルとアシタロテ及びスリヤの神シドンの神モアブの神アンモンの子孫の神ペリシテ人の神に事へヱホバを棄て之に事へざりき
7 So Yahweh was very angry with them, and he allowed the Philistia and Ammon people-groups to defeat [IDM] the Israelis.
ヱホバ烈しくイスラエルを怒りて之をペリシテ人及びアンモンの子孫の手に賣付したまへり
8 In that same year, those people started to oppress the Israelis who lived in [the] Gilead [region] on the east side of the Jordan [River]. That was where the Amor people-group also lived. were They caused the Israelis who lived in that region to suffer for 18 years.
其年に彼らイスラエルの子孫を虐げ難せりヨルダンの彼方においてギレアデにあるところのアモリ人の地に居るイスラエルの子孫十八年の間斯せられたりき
9 Then the people of the Ammon people-group crossed the Jordan [River] to fight against the people of the tribes of Judah, Benjamin, and Ephraim. They caused the Israelis’ lives to be very miserable.
アンモンの子孫またユダとベニヤミンとエフライムの族とを攻んとてヨルダンを渡りしかばイスラエル太く苦めり
10 So the Israelis cried out to Yahweh, saying “We have sinned against you. We have abandoned you, and we have been worshiping [the idols of their god] Baal.”
ここにおいてイスラエルの子孫ヱホバに呼りていひけるは我らおのれの神を棄てバアルに事へて汝に罪を犯したりと
11 Yahweh answered them, saying, “When the people of Egypt, and the Amor and Ammon and Philistia people-groups
ヱホバ、イスラエルの子孫にいひたまひけるは我かつてエジプト人アモリ人アンモンの子孫ペリシテ人より汝らを救ひ出せしにあらずや
12 and the Sidon and Amalek and Maon people-groups were cruel to you, you cried out to me, and then I rescued you.
又シドン人アマレク人及びマオン人の汝らを困しめしとき汝ら我に呼りしかば我汝らを彼らの手より救ひ出せり
13 But now you have abandoned me again, and you have been worshiping other gods. So I will not rescue you again.
然るに汝ら我を棄て他の神に事ふれば我かさねて汝らを救はざるべし
14 You have chosen those gods [to be the ones that you worship]. So call to them to help you. Allow them to rescue you when you have a lot of trouble!”
汝らが擇める神々に往て呼れ汝らの艱難のときに之をして汝らを救はしめよ
15 But the Israeli people said to Yahweh, “Truly we have sinned. Punish us in whatever way you wish to, but please rescue us now!”
イスラエルの子孫ヱホバに言けるは我ら罪を犯せりすべて汝の目に善と見るところを我らになしたまへねがはくは唯今日我らを救ひたまへと
16 Then the Israelis threw away the [idols of the] gods that belonged to other people-groups, and they worshiped Yahweh again. He saw that they were suffering very much, and he felt sorry [IDM] for them.
而して民おのれの中より異なる神々を取除きてヱホバに事へたりヱホバの心イスラエルの艱難を見るに忍びずなりぬ
17 The Ammon people-group gathered to fight [against the Israelis], and they set up their tents in [the] Gilead [region]. The Israeli men also gathered and set up their tents at Mizpah, [which was a city in Gilead].
茲にアンモンの子孫集てギレアデに陣を取りしがイスラエルの子孫は聚りてミヅパに陣を取り
18 The Israeli leaders said, “Who will lead our soldiers to attack the Ammon people-group? The one who will lead us will become the leader of all us who live in this Gilead [region].”
時に民ギレアデの群伯たがひにいひけるは誰かアンモンの子孫に打ちむかひて戰を始むべき人ぞ其人をギレアデのすべての民の首となすべしと
