< 1 Samuel 26 >

1 The Ziphites came to Saul at Gibeah and said, “Is not David hiding in the hill of Hakilah, which is before Jeshimon?”
ジフ人ギベアにきたりサウルの許にいたりてひけるはダビデは曠野のまへなるハキラの山にかくれをるにあらずやと
2 Then Saul arose and went down to the wilderness of Ziph, having three thousand chosen men of Israel with him, to seek David in the wilderness of Ziph.
サウルすなはち起ちジフの野にダビデを尋ねんとイスラエルの中より選みたる三千の人をしたがへてジフの野にくだる
3 Saul camped on the hill of Hakilah, which is before Jeshimon, by the road. But David was staying in the wilderness, and he saw that Saul was coming after him into the wilderness.
サウルは曠野のまへなるハキラの山において路のほとりに陣を取るダビデは曠野に居てサウルのおのれをおふて曠野にきたるをさとりければ
4 So David sent out spies and learned that Saul had indeed come.
ダビデ斥候を出してサウルの誠に來しをしれり
5 David arose and went to the place where Saul had camped; he saw the place where Saul lay, and Abner son of Ner, the general of his army; Saul lay in the camp, and the people were camped around him, all asleep.
ここにおいてダビデたちてサウルの陣をとれるところにいたりサウルおよび其軍の長ネルの子アブネルの寝たるところを見たりすなはちサウルは車營の中に寝ぬ民其まはりに陣をはれり
6 Then David said to Ahimelech the Hittite, and to Abishai son of Zeruiah, the brother of Joab, “Who will go down with me to Saul in the camp?” Abishai said, “I! I will go down with you.”
ダビデ答へてヘテ人アヒメレクおよびゼルヤの子にしてヨアブの兄弟なるアビシヤイにいひけるは誰か我とともにサウルの陣にくだらんかとアビシヤイいふ我汝とともに下らん
7 So David and Abishai went to the army by night. Saul was there sleeping inside the camp with his spear stuck in the ground beside his head. Abner and his soldiers lay around him.
ダビデとアビシヤイすなはち夜にいりて民の所にいたるに視よサウルは車營のうちに寝臥し其槍地にさして枕邊にありアブネルと民は其まはりに寝たり
8 Then Abishai said to David, “Today God has put your enemy into your hand. Now please let me pin him to the ground with the spear with just one blow. I will not strike him a second time.”
アビシヤイ、ダビデにいひけるは神今日爾の敵を爾の手にわたしたまふ請ふいま我に槍をもてかれを一度地にさしとほさしめよ再びするにおよばじ
9 David said to Abishai, “Do not destroy him; for who can extend his hand against Yahweh's anointed one and be guiltless?”
ダビデ、アビシヤイにいふ彼をころすなかれ誰かヱホバの膏そそぎし者に敵して其手をのべて罪なからんや
10 David said, “As Yahweh lives, Yahweh will kill him, or his day will come to die, or he will go into battle and perish.
ダビデまたいひけるはヱホバは生くヱホバかれを撃たまはんあるひはその死ぬる日來らんあるひは戰ひにくだりて死うせん
11 May Yahweh forbid that I should extend my hand against his anointed one; but now, I beg you, take the spear that is at his head and the jar of water, and let us go.”
わがヱホバのあぶらそそぎしものに敵して手をのぶることはきはめて善らずヱホバ禁じたまふされどいま請ふ爾そのまくらもとの槍と水の瓶をとれしかして我らさりゆかんと
12 So David took the spear and the jar of water from Saul's head, and they got away. No one saw them or knew about it, nor did anyone wake up, for they were all asleep, because a deep sleep from Yahweh had fallen on them.
ダビデ、サウルの枕邊より槍と水の瓶を取りてかれらさりゆきしが誰も見ず誰もしらず誰も目を醒さざりき其はかれら皆眠り居たればなり即ちヱホバかれらをふかく睡らしめたまふ
13 Then David went over to the other side and stood on the top of the mountain far off; a great distance was between them.
かくてダビデは彼旁にわたりて遥に山の頂にたてり彼と此とのへだたり大なり
14 David shouted out to the people and to Abner son of Ner; he said, “Do you not answer, Abner?” Then Abner answered and said, “Who are you who is shouting to the king?”
ダビデ民とネルの子アブネルによばはりいひけるはアブネルよ爾こたへざるかアブネルこたへていふ王をよぶ爾はたれなるや
15 David said to Abner, “Are not you a courageous man? Who is like you in Israel? Why then have you not kept watch over your master the king? For someone came in to kill the king your master.
ダビデ、アブネルにいひけるは爾は勇士ならずやイスラエルの中にて誰か爾に如ものあらんしかるに爾なんぞ爾の主なる王をまもらざるや民のひとり爾の主なる王を殺さんとていりぬ
16 This thing you have done is not good. As Yahweh lives, you deserve to die because you have not kept watch over your master, Yahweh's anointed one. Now see where the king's spear is and the jar of water that was near his head!”
爾がなせる此事よからずヱホバは生くなんぢらの罪死にあたれり爾らヱホバの膏そそぎし爾らの主をまもらざればなり今王の槍と王の枕邊にありし水の瓶はいづくにあるかを見よ
17 Saul recognized David's voice and said, “Is that your voice, my son David?” David said, “It is my voice, my master, king.”
サウル、ダビデの聲をしりていひけるはわが子ダビデよ是は爾の聲なるかダビデいひけるは王わが主よわが聲なり
18 He said, “Why does my master pursue his servant? What have I done? What evil is in my hand?
ダビデまたいひけるはわが主なにゆゑに斯くその僕をおふや我なにをなせしや何の惡き事わが手にあるや
19 Now therefore, I beg you, let my master the king listen to the words of his servant. If it is Yahweh who has stirred you up against me, let him accept an offering; but if it is human beings, may they be cursed in the sight of Yahweh, for they have today driven me out, that I should not cling to the inheritance of Yahweh; they have said to me, 'Go worship other gods.'
王わが主よ請ふいま僕の言を聽きたまへ若しヱホバ爾を我に敵せしめたまふならばねがはくはヱホバ禮物をうけたまへされど若し人ならばねがはくは其人々ヱホバのまへにのろはれよ其は彼等爾ゆきて他の神につかへよといひて今日我を追ひヱホバの產業に連なることをえざらしむるが故なり
20 Now therefore, do not let my blood fall to the earth away from Yahweh's presence; for the king of Israel has come out to look for the one flea as when one hunts a partridge in the mountains.”
ねがはくは我血をしてヱホバのまへをはなれて地におちしむるなかれそは人の山にて鷓鴣をおふがごとくイスラエルの王一の蚤をたづねにいでたればなり
21 Then Saul said, “I have sinned. Return, David, my son; for I will harm you no more, because my life was precious in your eyes today. See, I have played the fool and have made a very bad mistake.”
サウルいひけるは我罪ををかせりわが子ダビデよ歸れわが生命今日爾の目に寶と見なされたる故により我々かさねて爾に害を加へざるべし嗚呼われ愚なることをなして甚だしく過てり
22 David answered and said, “See, your spear is here, king! Let one of the young men come over and get it and bring it to you.
ダビデこたへていひけるは王よ槍を視よ請ひとりの少者をしてわたりてこれを取しめよ
23 May Yahweh pay each man for his righteousness and his faithfulness; because Yahweh put you into my hand today, but I would not strike his anointed.
ねがはくはヱホバおのおのに其義と眞實とにしたがひて報いたまへ共はヱホバ今日爾をわが手にわたしたまひしに我ヱホバの受膏者に敵してわが手をのぶることをせざればなり
24 See, as your life was precious in my eyes today, so may my life be much valued in the eyes of Yahweh, and may he rescue me out of all trouble.”
爾の生命を今日わがおもんぜしごとくねがはくはヱホバわが生命をおもんじて諸の艱難のうちより我をすくひいだしたまへ
25 Then Saul said to David, “May you be blessed, David my son! You will certainly do great things and you will succeed in them.” So David went his way, and Saul returned to his place.
サウル、ダビデにいひけるはわが子ダビデよ爾はほむべきかな爾大なる事を爲さん亦かならず勝をえんとしかしてダビデは其道にさりサウルはおのれの所にかへれり
