< 1 Samuel 23 >

1 Then they told David, saying, Behold, the Philistines fight against Keilah, and they rob 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 Therefore David inquired of the LORD, saying, Shall I go and smite these Philistines? And the LORD said to David, Go, and smite 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 And David's men said to him, Behold, we are afraid here in Judah: how much more then if we come 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 inquired of the LORD yet again. And the LORD answered him and said, Arise, go down to Keilah; for I will deliver the Philistines into thy hand.
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 So David and his men went to Keilah, and fought with the Philistines, and brought away their cattle, and smote 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 And it came to pass, when Abiathar the son of Ahimelech fled to David to Keilah, [that] 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 And it was told to Saul that David had come to Keilah. And Saul said, God hath delivered him into my hand; for he is shut in, by entering into a town that hath 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 And Saul called all the people together to war, 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 And David knew that Saul secretly plotted mischief against him; and he said to Abiathar the priest, Bring hither the ephod.
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 said David, O LORD God of Israel, thy servant hath certainly heard that Saul seeketh 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 deliver me up into his hand? will Saul come down as thy servant hath heard? O LORD God of Israel, I beseech thee, tell thy servant. And the LORD 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 said David, Will the men of Keilah deliver me and my men into the hand of Saul? And the LORD said, They will deliver [thee] up.
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, arose and departed from Keilah, and went whithersoever they could go. And it was told Saul that David had escaped from Keilah: and he forbore to go forth.
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 And David abode in the wilderness in strong holds, and remained in a mountain in the wilderness of Ziph. And Saul sought him every day, but God delivered him not 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 And David saw that Saul had come out to seek his life: and David [was] in the wilderness of Ziph in a wood.
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 And Jonathan Saul's son arose, and went to David into the wood, 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 And he said to him, Fear not: for the hand of Saul my father shall not find thee; and thou wilt be king over Israel, and I shall be next to thee; and that also Saul my father knoweth.
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 And they two made a covenant before the LORD: and David abode in the wood, and Jonathan went to his house.
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 came up the Ziphites to Saul to Gibeah, saying, Doth not David hide himself with us in strong holds in the wood, in the hill of Hachilah, which [is] on the 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 therefore, O king, come down according to all the desire of thy soul to come down; and our part [shall be] to deliver 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 And Saul said, Blessed [be] ye of the LORD; for ye have 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, I pray you, prepare yet, and know, and see his place where his haunt is, [and] who hath seen him there: for it is told to me [that] he dealeth very subtilly.
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 See therefore, and take knowledge of all the lurking-places where he hideth himself, and come ye again to me with the certainty, and I will go with you: and it shall come to pass, if he is in the land, that I will search him out throughout 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 And they arose, and went to Ziph before Saul: but David and his men [were] in the wilderness of Maon, in the plain on 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 also and his men went to seek [him]. And they told David: wherefore he came down into a rock, and abode in the wilderness of Maon. And when Saul heard [that], he pursued after 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 And Saul went on this side of the mountain, and David and his men on that side of the mountain: and David made haste to get away for fear of Saul; for Saul and his men compassed David and his men around 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 But there came a messenger to Saul, saying, Haste thee, and come; for the Philistines have invaded 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 Wherefore Saul returned from pursuing after David, and went against the Philistines: therefore they called that place Sela-hammah-lekoth.
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 Then David went up from thence, and dwelt in strong holds at En-gedi.
ダビデ其處よりのぼりてエンゲデの要害にをる
