< Deuteronomy 13 >
1 If there arises among you a prophet or a dreamer of dreams, and if he gives you a sign or a wonder,
汝らの中に預言者あるひは夢者興りて徴證と奇蹟を汝に見し
2 and if the sign or the wonder comes about, of which he spoke to you and said, 'Let us go after other gods, that you have not known, and let us worship them,'
汝に告て我らは今より汝と我とが是まで識ざりし他の神々に從ひて之に事へんと言ことあらんにその徴證または奇蹟これが言ごとく成とも
3 do not listen to the words of that prophet, or to that dreamer of dreams; for Yahweh your God is testing you to know whether you love Yahweh your God with all your heart and with all your soul.
汝その預言者または夢者の言に聽したがふ勿れ其は汝等の神ヱホバ汝らが心を盡し精神を盡して汝らの神ヱホバを愛するや否やを知んとて斯なんぢらを試みたまふなればなり
4 You will walk after Yahweh your God, honor him, keep his commandments, and obey his voice, and you will worship him and cling to him.
汝らは汝らの神ヱホバに從ひて歩み之を畏れその誡命を守りその言に遵ひ之に事へこれに附從ふべし
5 That prophet or that dreamer of dreams will be put to death, because he has spoken rebellion against Yahweh your God, who brought you out of the land of Egypt, and who redeemed you out of the house of bondage. That prophet wants to draw you out of the way in which Yahweh your God commanded you to walk. So put away the evil from among you.
その預言者または夢者をば殺すべし是は彼汝らをして汝らをエジプトの國より導き出し奴隸の家より贖ひ取たる汝らの神ヱホバに背かせんとし汝の神ヱホバの汝に歩めと命ぜし道より汝を誘ひ出さんとして語るに因てなり汝斯して汝の中より惡を除き去べし
6 Suppose that your brother, the son of your mother, or your son, or your daughter, or the wife of your bosom, or your friend who is to you like your own soul, secretly entices you and says, 'Let us go and worship other gods that you have not known, neither you nor your ancestors—
汝の母の生る汝の兄弟または汝の男子女子または汝の懐の妻または汝と身命を共にする汝の友潜に汝を誘ひて言あらん汝も汝の先祖等も識ざりし他の神々に我ら往て事へん
7 any of the gods of the peoples that are round about you, near to you, or far off from you, from the one end of the earth to the other end of the earth.'
即ち汝の周圍にある國々の神の或は汝に近く或は汝に遠くして地の此極より地の彼極までに鎮り坐る者に我ら事へんと斯言ことあるとも
8 You must not give in to him or listen to him, and you must not permit your eye to pity him, and you must not spare him or conceal him.
汝これに從ふ勿れ之に聽なかれ之を惜み視る勿れ之を憐むなかれ之を庇ひ匿す勿れ
9 Instead, you will surely kill him; your hand will be the first on him to put him to death, and afterwards the hand of all the people.
汝かならず之を殺すべし之を殺すには汝まづ之に手を下し然る後に民みな手を下すべし
10 You will stone him to death with stones, because he has tried to draw you away from Yahweh your God, who brought you out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of bondage.
彼はエジプトの國奴隸の家より汝を導き出したまひし汝の神ヱホバより汝を誘ひ離さんと求めたれば汝石をもて之を撃殺すべし
11 All Israel will hear and fear, and will not continue to do this kind of wickedness among you.
然せばイスラエルみな聞て懼れ重ねて斯る惡き事を汝らの中に行はざらん
12 If you hear anyone say about one of your cities, that Yahweh your God gives you to live in:
汝聞に汝の神ヱホバの汝に與へて住しめたまへる汝の邑の一に
13 Some wicked fellows have gone out from among you and have drawn away the inhabitants of their city and said, 'Let us go and worship other gods that you have not known.'
邪僻なる人々興り我らは今まで識ざりし他の神々に往て事へんと言てその邑に住む人を誘ひ惑はしたりと言あらば
14 Then you will examine the evidence, make search, and investigate it thoroughly. When you discover that it is true and certain that such an abominable thing has been done among you, then you will take action.
汝これを尋ね探り善問べし若その事眞にその言確にして斯る憎むべき事汝らの中に行はれたらば
15 You will surely attack the inhabitants of that city with the edge of the sword, completely destroy it and all the people who are in it, along with its livestock, with the edge of the sword.
汝かならずその邑に住む者を刃にかけて撃ころしその邑とその中に居る一切の者およびその家畜を刃にかけて盡く撃ころすべし
16 You will gather all the spoil from it into the middle of its street and will burn the city, as well as all its spoil—for Yahweh your God. The city will be a heap of ruins forever; it must never be built again.
またその中より獲たる掠取物は凡てこれをその衢に集め火をもてその邑とその一切の掠取物をことごとく焚て汝の神ヱホバに供ふべし是は永く荒邱となりて再び建なほさるること無るべきなり
17 None of those things set apart for destruction must stick in your hand. This must be the case, so that Yahweh will turn from the fierceness of his anger, show you mercy, have compassion on you, and make you increase in numbers, as he has sworn to your fathers.
斯汝この詛はれし物を少許も汝の手に附おく勿れ然せばヱホバその烈しき怒を靜め汝に慈悲を加へて汝を憐れみ汝の先祖等に誓ひしごとく汝の數を衆くしたまはん
18 He will do this because you are listening to the voice of Yahweh your God, to keep all his commandments that I am commanding you today, to do that which is right in the eyes of Yahweh your God.
汝もし汝の神ヱホバの言を聽き我が今日なんぢに命ずるその一切の誡命を守り汝の神ヱホバの善と觀たまふ事を行はば是のごとくなるべし
