1 Samuel 17
1 Now the Philistines gathered their armies for battle. They were gathered at Sokoh, which belongs to Judah. They had encamped between Sokoh and Azekah, in Ephes Dammim.
爰にペリシテ人其軍を集めて戰はんとしユダに屬するシヨコにあつまりシヨコとアゼカの間なるバスダミムに陣をとる
2 Saul and the men of Israel gathered and encamped in the Valley of Elah, and drew up their battle line to meet the Philistines.
サウルとイスラエルの人々集まりてエラの谷に陣をとりペリシテ人にむかひて軍の陣列をたつ
3 The Philistines stood on a mountain on one side, and Israel stood on a mountain on the other side with a valley between them.
ペリシテ人は此方の山にたちイスラエルは彼方の山にたつ谷は其あひだにあり
4 A strong man came out of the Philistines' camp, a man named Goliath of Gath, whose height was six cubits and a span.
時にペリシテ人の陣よりガテのゴリアテと名くる挑戰者いできたる其身の長六キユビト半
5 He had a helmet of bronze on his head, and he was armed with a coat of chainmail. The coat weighed five thousand shekels of bronze.
首に銅の盔を戴き身に鱗綴の鎧甲を着たり其よろひの銅のおもさは五千シケルなり
6 He had bronze armor on his legs and a javelin of bronze between his shoulders.
また脛には銅の脛當を着け肩の間に銅の矛戟を負ふ
7 The staff of his spear was large, with a loop of cord for throwing it like the cord on a weaver's beam. His spear's head weighed six hundred shekels of iron. His shield bearer went before him.
其槍の柄は機の梁のごとく槍の鋒刃の鐵は六百シケルなり楯を執る者其前にゆく
8 He stood and shouted to the ranks of Israel, “Why have you come out to draw up for battle? Am not I a Philistine, and are you not servants of Saul? Choose a man for yourselves and let him come down to me.
ゴリアテ立てイスラエルの諸行伍によばはり云けるは汝らはなんぞ陣列をなして出きたるや我はペリシテ人にして汝らはサウルの臣下にあらずや汝ら一人をえらみて我ところにくだせ
9 If he is able to fight with me and kill me, then will we be your servants. But if I defeat him and kill him, then you will be our servants and serve us.”
其人もし我とたたかひて我をころすことをえば我ら汝らの臣僕とならんされど若し我かちてこれを殺さば汝ら我らの僕となりて我らに事ふ可し
10 Again the Philistine said, “I challenge the ranks of Israel today. Give me a man so we may fight together.”
かくて此ペリシテ人いひけるは我今日イスラエルの諸行伍を挑む一人をいだして我と戰はしめよと
11 When Saul and all Israel heard what the Philistine said, they were discouraged and greatly afraid.
サウルおよびイスラエルみなペリシテ人のこの言を聞き驚きて大に懼れたり
12 Now David was the son of the Ephrathite of Bethlehem in Judah, whose name was Jesse. He had eight sons. Jesse was an old man in the days of Saul, very old among men.
抑ダビデはかのベテレヘムユダのエフラタ人ヱサイとなづくる者の子なり此人八人の子ありしがサウルの世には年邁みてすでに老たり
13 The three oldest sons of Jesse had followed Saul to the battle. The names of his three sons who went to the battle were Eliab the firstborn, second to him Abinadab, and the third Shammah.
ヱサイの長子三人ゆきてサウルにしたがひて戰爭にいづ其戰にいでし三人の子の名は長をエリアブといひ次をアビナダブといひ第三をシヤンマといふ
14 David was the youngest. The three oldest followed Saul.
ダビデは季子にして其兄三人はサウルにしたがへり
15 Now David went back and forth between Saul's army and his father's sheep at Bethlehem, in order to feed them.
ダビデはサウルに往來してベテレヘムにて其父の羊を牧ふ
16 For forty days the Philistine strong man came near morning and evening to present himself for battle.
彼ペリシテ人四十日のあひだ朝夕近づきて前にたてり
17 Then Jesse said to his son David, “Take to your brothers an ephah of this roasted grain and these ten loaves, and carry them quickly to the camp for your brothers.
時にヱサイ其子ダビデにいひけるは今汝の兄のために此烘麥一斗と此十のパンを取りて陣營にをる兄のところにいそぎゆけ
18 Also bring these ten cheeses to the captain of their thousand. See how your brothers are doing and bring back some proof that they are doing well.
また此十の乾酪をとりて其千夫の長におくり兄の安否を視て其返事をもちきたれと
19 Your brothers are with Saul and all the men of Israel in the Valley of Elah, fighting the Philistines.”
サウルと彼等およびイスラエルの人は皆ペリシテ人とたたかひてエラの谷にありき
20 David got up early in the morning and left the flock in the care of a shepherd. He took the supplies and left, as Jesse commanded him. He came to the camp as the army was going out to the battlefield shouting the war cry.
ダビデ朝夙くおきて羊をひとりの牧者にあづけヱサイの命ぜしごとく携へゆきて車營にいたるに軍勢いでて行伍をなし鯨波をあげたり
21 Then Israel and the Philistines lined up for battle, army against army.
しかしてイスラエルとペリシテ人陣列をたてて行伍を行伍に相むかはせたり
22 David left his belongings with the keeper of supplies, ran to the army, and greeted his brothers.
ダビデ其荷をおろして荷をまもる者の手にわたし行伍の中にはせゆきて兄の安否を問ふ
23 As he talked with them, the strong man, the Philistine of Gath, Goliath by name, and he came out of the ranks of the Philistines, and said the same words as before, and David heard them.
ダビデ彼等と倶に語れる時視よペリシテ人の行伍よりガテのペリシテのゴリアテとなづくる彼の挑戰者のぼりきたり前のことばのごとく言しかばダビデ之を聞けり
24 When all the men of Israel saw the man, they fled from him and were very afraid.
イスラエルの人其人を見て皆逃て之をはなれ痛く懼れたり
25 The men of Israel said, “Have you seen this man who has come up? He has come to challenge Israel. The king will give great riches to the man who kills him, and he will give his daughter to him in marriage, and will make his father's house free from taxation in Israel.”
イスラエルの人いひけるは汝らこののぼり來る人を見しや誠にイスラエルを挑んとて上りきたるなり彼をころす人は王大なる富を以てこれをとまし其女子をこれにあたへて其父の家にはイスラエルの中にて租税をまぬかれしめん
26 David said to the men who stood by him, “What will be done for the man who kills this Philistine and takes away the disgrace from Israel? Who is this uncircumcised Philistine that he should defy the armies of the living God?”
ダビデ其傍にたてる人々にかたりていひけるは此ペリシテ人をころしイスラエルの耻辱を雪ぐ人には如何なることをなすや此割禮なきペリシテ人は誰なればか活る神の軍を搦む
27 Then the people repeated what they had been saying and told him, “So it will be done for the man who kills him.”
民まへのごとく答へていひけるはかれを殺す人には斯のごとくせらるべしと
28 Eliab his oldest brother heard when he spoke to the men. Eliab's anger was kindled against David, and he said, “Why did you come down here? With whom have you left those few sheep in the wilderness? I know your pride, and the mischief in your heart; for you have come down here so that you might see the battle.”
兄エリアブ、ダビデが人々とかたるを聞しかばエリアブ、ダビデにむかひて怒りを發しいひけるは汝なにのために此に下りしや彼の野にあるわづかの羊を誰にあづけしや我汝の傲慢と惡き心を知る其は汝戰爭を見んとて下ればなり
29 David said, “What have I done now? Was it not just a question?”
ダビデいひけるは我今なにをなしたるや只一言にあらずやと
30 He turned away from him toward another, and spoke in the same way. The people answered the same thing as before.
又ふりむきて他の人にむかひ前のごとく語れるに民まへのごとく答たり
31 When the words that David said were heard, soldiers repeated them to Saul, and he sent for David.
人々ダビデが語れる言をききてこれをサウルのまへにつげければサウルかれを召す
32 Then David said to Saul, “Let no man's heart fail because of that Philistine; your servant will go and fight with this Philistine.”
ダビデ、サウルにいひけるは人々かれがために氣をおとすべからず僕ゆきてかのペリシテ人とたたかはん
33 Saul said to David, “You are not able to go against this Philistine to fight with him; for you are only a youth, and he a man of war from his youth.”
サウル、ダビデにいひけるは汝はかのペリシテ人をむかへてたたかふに勝ず其は汝は少年なるにかれは若き時よりの戰士なればなり
34 But David said to Saul, “Your servant used to keep his father's sheep. When a lion or a bear came and took a lamb out of the flock,
ダビデ、サウルにいひけるは僕さきに父の羊を牧るに獅子と熊と來りて其群の羔を取たれば
35 I chased after him and attacked him, and rescued it out of his mouth. When he rose up against me, I caught him by his beard, struck him, and killed him.
其後をおひて之を搏ち羔を其口より援ひいだせりしかして其獣我に猛りかかりたれば其鬚をとらへてこれを撃ちころせり
36 Your servant has killed both a lion and a bear. This uncircumcised Philistine will be like one of them, since he has challenged the armies of the living God.”
僕は旣に獅子と熊とを殺せり此割禮なきペリシテ人活る神の軍をいどみたれば亦かの獣の一のごとくなるべし
37 David said, “Yahweh rescued me from the paw of the lion and from the paw of the bear. He will rescue me from the hand of this Philistine.” Then Saul said to David, “Go, and may Yahweh be with you.”
ダビデまたいひけるはヱホバ我を獅子の爪と熊の爪より援ひいだしたまひたれば此ペリシテ人の手よりも援ひいだしたまはんとサウル、ダビデにいふ往けねがはくはヱホバ汝とともにいませ
38 Saul clothed David with his armor. He put a helmet of bronze upon his head, and he clothed him with a coat of chainmail.
是においてサウルおのれの戎衣をダビデに衣せ銅の盔を其首にかむらせ亦鱗綴の鎧をこれにきせたり
39 David strapped his sword on his armor. But he was not able to walk, because he had not trained with them. Then David said to Saul, “I cannot go out to fight with these, for I have not trained with them.” So David put them off.
ダビデ戎衣のうへに劍を佩て往かんことを試む未だ驗せしことなければなりしかしてダビデ、サウルにいひけるは我いまだ驗せしことなければ是を衣ては往くあたはずと
40 He took his staff in his hand and chose five smooth stones out of the brook; he put them in his shepherd's pouch. His sling was in his hand as he approached the Philistine.
ダビデこれを脱ぎすて手に杖をとり谿間より五の光滑なる石を拾ひて之を其持てる牧羊者の具なる袋に容れ手に投石索を執りて彼ペリシテ人にちかづく
41 The Philistine came and approached David, with his shield bearer in front of him.
ペリシテ人進みきてダビデに近づけり楯を執るもの其まへにあり
42 When the Philistine looked around and saw David, he despised him, for he was only a boy, and ruddy, with a handsome appearance.
ペリシテ人環視てダビデを見て之を藐視る其は少くして赤くまた美しき貌なればなり
43 Then the Philistine said to David, “Am I a dog, that you come to me with sticks?,” and the Philistine cursed David by his gods.
ペリシテ人ダビデにいひけるは汝杖を持てきたる我豈犬ならんやとペリシテ人其神の名をもってダビデを呪詛ふ
44 The Philistine said to David, “Come to me, and I will give your flesh to the birds of the heavens and to the beasts of the field.”
しかしてペリシテ人ダビデにいひけるは我がもとに來れ汝の肉を空の鳥と野の獣にあたへんと
45 David replied to the Philistine, “You come to me with a sword, a spear, and a javelin. But I come to you in the name of Yahweh of hosts, the God of the armies of Israel, whom you have defied.
ダビデ、ペリシテ人にいひけるは汝は劍と槍と矛戟をもて我にきたる然ど我は萬軍のヱホバの名すなはち汝が搦みたるイスラエルの軍の神の名をもて汝にゆく
46 Today Yahweh will give me victory over you, and I will kill you and remove your head from your body. Today I will give the dead bodies of the Philistine army to the birds of the heavens and to the wild beasts of the earth, so that all the earth may know that there is a God in Israel,
今日ヱホバ汝をわが手に付したまはんわれ汝をうちて汝の首級を取りペリシテ人の軍勢の尸體を今日空の鳥と地の野獣にあたへて全地をしてイスラエルに神あることをしらしめん
47 and that all this gathering may know that Yahweh does not give victory with sword or spear. For the battle is Yahweh's, and he will give you into our hand.”
且又この群衆みなヱホバは救ふに劍と槍を用ひたまはざることをしるにいたらん其は戰はヱホバによれば汝らを我らの手にわたしたまはんと
48 When the Philistine rose and approached David, then David ran quickly toward the enemy army to meet him.
ペリシテ人すなはち立あがり進みちかづきてダビデをむかへしかばダビデいそぎ陣にはせゆきてペリシテ人をむかふ
49 David put his hand in his bag, took a stone from it, slung it, and hit the Philistine in the forehead. The stone sank into the Philistine's forehead, and he fell on his face to the ground.
ダビデ手を嚢にいれて其中より一つの石をとり投てペリシテ人の顙を撃ければ石其顙に突きいりて俯伏に地にたふれたり
50 David defeated the Philistine with a sling and with a stone. He hit the Philistine and killed him. There was no sword in David's hand.
かくダビデ投石索と石をもてペリシテ人にかちペリシテ人をうちて之をころせり然どダビデの手には劍なかりしかば
51 Then David ran and stood over the Philistine and took his sword, drew it out of the sheath, killed him, and cut off his head with it. When the Philistines saw that their strong man was dead, they fled.
ダビデはしりてペリシテ人の上にのり其劍を取て之を鞘より抜きはなしこれをもて彼をころし其首級を斬りたり爰にペリシテの人々其勇士の死るを見てにげしかば
52 Then the men of Israel and of Judah rose with a shout, and chased after the Philistines as far as the valley and the gates of Ekron. The dead Philistines lay along the way to Shaaraim, all the way to Gath and Ekron.
イスラエルとユダの人おこり喊呼をあげてペリシテ人をおひガテの入口およびエクロンの門にいたるペリシテ人の負傷人シヤライムの路に仆れてガテおよびエクロンにおよぶ
53 The people of Israel returned from chasing the Philistines, and they plundered their camp.
イスラエルの子孫ペリシテ人をおふてかへり其陣を掠む
54 David took the head of the Philistine and brought it to Jerusalem, but he put his armor in his tent.
ダビデかのペリシテ人の首を取りて之をエルサレムにたづさへきたりしが其甲冑はおのれの天幕におけり
55 When Saul saw David go out against the Philistine, he said to Abner, the captain of the army, “Abner, whose son is this youth?” Abner said, “As you live, king, I do not know.”
サウル、ダビデがペリシテ人にむかひて出るを見て軍長アブネルにいひけるはアブネル此少者はたれの子なるやアブネルいひけるは王汝の霊魂は生くわれしらざるなり
56 The king said, “Ask those who might know, whose son the boy is.”
王いひけるはこの少年はたれの子なるかを尋ねよ
57 When David returned from killing the Philistine, Abner took him, and brought him before Saul with the head of the Philistine in his hand.
ダビデかのペリシテ人を殺してかへれる時アブネルこれをひきて其ペリシテ人の首級を手にもてるままサウルのまへにつれゆきければ
58 Saul said to him, “Whose son are you, young man?” David answered, “I am the son of your servant Jesse the Bethlehemite.”
サウルかれにいひけるは若き人よ汝はたれの子なるやダビデこたへけるは汝の僕ベテレヘム人ヱサイの子なり
