1 Samuel 23
1 They told David, “Look, the Philistines are fighting against Keilah and are robbing the threshing floors.”
人々ダビデにつげていひけるは視よペリシテ人ケイラを攻め穀場を掠むと
2 So David prayed to Yahweh for help and asked him, “Should I go and attack these Philistines?” Yahweh said to David, “Go and attack the Philistines and save Keilah.”
ダビデ、ヱホバに問ていひけるは我ゆきて是のペリシテ人を撃つべきかとヱホバ、ダビデにいひたまひけるは往てペリシテ人をうちてケイラを救ヘ
3 David's men said to him, “See, we are afraid here in Judah. How much more then if we go to Keilah against the armies of the Philistines?”
ダビデの從者かれにいひけるは視よわれら此にユダにあるすら尚ほおそる况やケイラにゆきてペリシテ人の軍にあたるをやと
4 Then David prayed to Yahweh for help yet again. Yahweh answered him, “Arise, go down to Keilah. For I will give you victory over the Philistines.”
ダビデふたたびヱホバに問ひけるにヱホバ答ていひたまひけるは起てケイラにくだれ我ペリシテ人を汝の手にわたすべし
5 David and his men went to Keilah and fought with the Philistines. He led away their cattle and struck them with a great slaughter. So David saved the inhabitants of Keilah.
ダビデとその從者ケイラにゆきてペリシテ人とたたかひ彼らの家畜を奪ひとり大にかれらをうちころせりかくダビデ、ケイラの居民をすくふ
6 When Abiathar son of Ahimelech had fled to David at Keilah, he came down with an ephod in his hand.
アヒメレクの子アビヤタル、ケイラにのがれてダビデにいたれる時其手にエポデを執てくだれり
7 Saul was told that David had gone to Keilah. Saul said, “God has given him into my hand. For he is shut in because he has entered a city that has gates and bars.”
爰にダビデのケイラに至れる事サウルに聞えければサウルいふ神かれを我手にわたしたまへり其はかれ門あり關ある邑にいりたれば閉こめらるればなり
8 Saul summoned all his forces for battle, to go down to Keilah, to besiege David and his men.
サウルすなはち民をことごとく軍によびあつめてケイラにくだりてダビデと其從者を圍んとす
9 David knew that Saul was plotting harm against him. He said to Abiathar the priest, “Bring the ephod here.”
ダビデはサウルのおのれを害せんと謀るを知りて祭司アビヤタルにいひけるはエポデを持ちきたれと
10 Then David said, “Yahweh, the God of Israel, your servant has indeed heard that Saul seeks to come to Keilah, to destroy the city for my sake.
しかしてダビデいひけるはイスラエルの神ヱホバよ僕たしかにサウルがケイラにきたりてわがために此邑をほろぼさんと求むるを聞り
11 Will the men of Keilah surrender me into his hand? Will Saul come down, as your servant has heard? Yahweh, the God of Israel, I beg you, please tell your servant.” Yahweh said, “He will come down.”
ケイラの人々我をかれの手にわたすならんか僕のきけるごとくサウル下るならんかイスラエルの神ヱホバよ請ふ僕につげたまへとヱホバいひたまひけるは彼下るべしと
12 Then David said, “Will the men of Keilah surrender me and my men into the hand of Saul?” Yahweh said, “They will surrender you.”
ダビデいひけるはケイラの人々われとわが從者をサウルの手にわたすならんかヱホバいひたまひけるは彼らわたすべし
13 Then David and his men, who were about six hundred, got up and went away from Keilah, and they went from place to place. It was told Saul that David had escaped from Keilah, and he stopped the pursuit.
是においてダビデと其六百人ばかりの從者起てケイラをいで其ゆきうる所にゆけりダビデのケイラをにげはなれしことサウルに聞えければサウルいづることを止たり
14 David stayed in the strongholds in the wilderness, in the hill country in the wilderness of Ziph. Saul looked for him every day, but God did not give him into his hand.
ダビデは曠野にをり要害の地にをりまたジフの野にある山に居るサウル恒にかれを尋ねたれども神かれを其手にわたしたまはざりき
15 David saw that Saul had come out to seek his life; now David was in the wilderness of Ziph at Horesh.
ダビデ、サウルがおのれの生命を求めんために出たるを見る時にダビデはジフの野の叢林にをりしが
16 Then Jonathan, Saul's son, got up and went to David at Horesh, and strengthened his hand in God.
サウルの子ヨナタンたちて叢林にいりてダビデにいたり神によりて其力を強うせしめたり
17 He said to him, “Do not be afraid. For the hand of Saul my father will not find you. You will be king over Israel, and I will be next to you. Saul my father also knows this.”
即ちヨナタンかれにいひけるに懼るるなかれわが父サウルの手汝にとどくことあらじ汝はイスラエルの王とならん我は汝の次なるべし此事はわが父サウルもしれりと
18 They made a covenant before Yahweh. David remained at Horesh, and Jonathan went home.
かくて彼ら二人ヱホバのまへに契約をむすびダビデは叢林にとどまりヨナタンは其家にかへれり
19 Then Ziphites came to Saul at Gibeah and said, “Is not David hiding among us in the strongholds at Horesh, on the hill of Hakilah, which is south of Jeshimon?
時にジフ人ギベアにのぼりサウルの許にいたりていひけるはダビデは曠野の南にあるハキラの山の叢林の中なる要害に隱れて我らとともにをるにあらずや
20 Now come down, king! According to your desire, come down! Our part will be to surrender him into the king's hand.”
今王汝のくだらんとする望のごとく下りたまへ我らはかれを王の手にわたさんと
21 Saul said, “May you be blessed by Yahweh. For you have had compassion on me.
サウルいひけるは汝ら我をあはれめば願くは汝等ヱホバより福祉をえよ
22 Go, make even more sure. Learn and find out where his hiding place is and who has seen him there. It is told to me that he is very crafty.
請ふゆきて尚ほ心を用ひ彼の踪跡ある處と誰がかれを見たるかを見きはめよ其は人我にかれが甚だ機巧く事を爲すを告たれば也
23 So look, and learn all of the places where he hides himself. Come back to me with sure information, and then I will return with you. If he is in the land, I will search him out among all the thousands of Judah.”
されば汝ら彼が隱るる逃躱處を皆たしかに見きはめて再び我にきたれ我汝らとともにゆかん彼もし其地にあらば我ユダの郡中をあまねく尋ねて彼を獲んと
24 Then they rose up and went to Ziph ahead of Saul. Now David and his men were in the wilderness of Maon, in the Arabah to the south of Jeshimon.
かれらたちてサウルに先てジフにゆけりダビデと其從者は曠野の南のアラバにあるマオンの野にをる
25 Saul and his men went to seek him. But David was told of it, so he went down to a rocky hill and lived in the wilderness of Maon. When Saul heard it, he chased David in the wilderness of Maon.
斯てサウルと其從者ゆきて彼を尋ぬ人々これをダビデに告ければダビデ巌を下てマオンの野にをるサウル之を聞てマオンの野に至てダビデを追ふ
26 Saul went on one side of the mountain, and David and his men were going on the other side of the mountain. David hurried to get away from Saul. As Saul and his men were surrounding David and his men to take them,
サウルは山の此旁に行ダビデと其從者は山の彼旁に行ダビデは周章てサウルの前を避んとしサウルと其從者はダビデと其從者を圍んで之を取んとす
27 a messenger came to Saul and said, “Hurry and come, for the Philistines have made a raid against the land.”
時に使者サウルに來て言けるはペリシテ人國ををかす急ぎきたりたまへと
28 So Saul returned from pursuing David and went against the Philistines. Therefore that place was called the Rock of Escape.
故にサウル、ダビデを追ことを止てかへり往てペリシテ人にあたるここをもて人々その處をセラマレコテ(逃岩)となづく
29 David went up from there and lived in the strongholds of Engedi.
ダビデ其處よりのぼりてエンゲデの要害にをる
