2 Samuel 10
1 It came about later that the king of the people of Ammon died, and that Hanun his son became king in his place.
此後アンモンの子孫の王死て其子ハヌン之に代りて位に即く
2 David said, “I will show kindness to Hanun son of Nahash, as his father showed kindness to me.” So David sent his servants to comfort Hanun concerning his father. His servants entered the land of the people of Ammon.
ダビデ我ナハシの子ハヌンにその父の我に恩惠を示せしごとく恩惠を示さんといひてダビデかれを其父の故によりて慰めんとて其僕を遣せりダビデの僕アンモンの子孫の地にいたるに
3 But the leaders of the people of Ammon said to Hanun their master, “Do you really think that David is honoring your father because he has sent men to comfort you? Has not David sent his servants to you to look at the city, to spy it out, in order to overthrow it?”
アンモンの子孫の諸伯其主ハヌンにいひけるはダビデ慰者を汝に遣はしたるによりて彼汝の父を崇むと汝の目に見ゆるやダビデ此城邑を窺ひこれを探りて陷いれんために其僕を汝に遣はせるにあらずや
4 So Hanun took David's servants, shaved off half their beards, cut off their garments up to their buttocks, and sent them away.
是においてハヌン、ダビデの僕を執へ其鬚の半を剃り落し其衣服を中より斷て股までにしてこれを歸せり
5 When they explained this to David, he sent to meet with them, for the men were deeply ashamed. The king said, “Stay at Jericho until your beards have grown back, and then return.”
人々これをダビデに告たればダビデ人を遣はしてかれらを迎へしむ其人々大に恥たればなり即ち王いふ汝ら鬚の長るまでヱリコに止まりて然るのち歸るべしと
6 When the people of Ammon saw that they had become a stench to David, the people of Ammon sent messengers and hired the Arameans of Beth Rehob and Zobah, twenty thousand foot soldiers, and the king of Maacah with a thousand men, and the men of Tob with twelve thousand men.
アンモンの子孫自己のダビデに惡まるるを見しかばアンモンの子孫人を遣はしてベテレホブのスリア人とゾバのスリア人の歩兵二萬人およびマアカの王より一千人トブの人より一萬二千人を雇いれたり
7 When David heard of it, he sent Joab and all the army of soldiers.
ダビデ聞てヨアブと勇士の惣軍を遣はせり
8 The Ammonites came out and formed a line of battle at the entrance to their city gate, while the Arameans of Zobah and of Rehob, and the men of Tob and Maacah, stood by themselves in the open fields.
アンモンの子孫出て門の入口に軍の陣列をなしたりゾバとレホブのスリア人およびトブの人とマアカの人は別に野に居り
9 When Joab saw the battle lines facing him both in front and behind, he chose some of Israel's best fighters and arranged them against the Arameans.
ヨアブ戰の前後より己に向ふを見てイスラエルの選抜の兵の中を選みてこれをスリア人に對ひて備へしめ
10 The rest of his people he put into the hand of Abishai his brother, and he set them out in position to fight against the army of Ammon.
其餘の民をば其兄弟アビシヤイの手に交してアンモンの子孫に向て備へしめて
11 Joab said, “If the Arameans are too strong for me, then you, Abishai, must rescue me. But if the army of Ammon is too strong for you, then I will come and rescue you.
いひけるは若スリア人我に手強からば汝我を助けよ若アンモンの子孫汝に手剛からば我ゆきて汝をたすけん
12 Be strong, and let us show ourselves to be strong for our people and for the cities of our God, for Yahweh will do what is good for his purpose.”
汝勇ましくなれよ我ら民のためとわれらの神の諸邑のために勇しく爲んねがはくはヱホバ其目によしと見ゆるところをなしたまへ
13 So Joab and the soldiers of his army advanced to the battle against the Arameans, who were forced to flee before the army of Israel.
ヨアブ己と共に在る民と共にスリア人にむかひて戰んとて近づきければスリア人彼のまへより逃たり
14 When the army of Ammon saw that the Arameans had fled, they also fled from Abishai and went back into the city. Then Joab returned from the people of Ammon and went back to Jerusalem.
アンモンの子孫スリア人の逃たるを見て亦自己等もアビシヤイのまへより逃て城邑にいりぬヨアブすなはちアンモンの子孫の所より還りてエルサレムにいたる
15 When the Arameans saw that they were being defeated by Israel, they gathered themselves together again.
スリア人其イスラエルのまへに敗れたるを見て倶にあつまれり
16 Then Hadarezer sent for Aramean troops from beyond the Euphrates River. They came to Helam, and Shobak, the commander of Hadarezer's army, went before them.
ハダデゼル人をやりて河の前岸にをるスリア人を將ゐ出して皆ヘラムにきたらしむハダデゼルの軍の長シヨバクかれらを率ゐたり
17 When David was told this, he gathered all Israel together, crossed the Jordan, and arrived at Helam. The Arameans arranged themselves in battle lines against David and fought him.
其事ダビデに聞えければ彼イスラエルを悉く集めてヨルダンを渉りてヘラムに來れりスリア人ダビデに向ひて備へ之と戰ふ
18 The Arameans fled from Israel, and David killed seven hundred of their men in chariots and forty thousand horsemen. Shobak the commander of their army was wounded and died there.
スリア人イスラエルのまへより逃ければダビデ、スリアの兵車の人七百騎兵四萬を殺し又其軍の長シヨバクを撃てこれを其所に死しめたり
19 When all the kings who were servants of Hadarezer saw that they were defeated by Israel, they made peace with Israel and became their subjects. So the Arameans were afraid to help the people of Ammon anymore.
ハダデゼルの臣なる王等其イスラエルのまへに壞れたるを見てイスラエルと平和をなして之に事へたり斯スリア人は恐れて再びアンモンの子孫を助くることをせざりき
