Judges 4
1 The children of Israel again did that which was evil in the LORD’s sight, when Ehud was dead.
エホデの死たるのちイスラエルの子孫復ヱホバの目前に惡を行しかば
2 The LORD sold them into the hand of Jabin king of Canaan, who reigned in Hazor; the captain of whose army was Sisera, who lived in Harosheth of the Gentiles.
ヱホバ、ハゾルにて世を治むるカナンの王ヤビンの手に之を賣たまふヤビンの軍勢の長はシセラといふ彼異邦人のハロセテに住居り
3 The children of Israel cried to the LORD, for he had nine hundred chariots of iron; and he mightily oppressed the children of Israel for twenty years.
鐵の戰車九百輌を有居て二十年の間イスラエルの子孫を甚だしく虐げしかばイスラエルの子孫ヱホバに呼はれり
4 Now Deborah, a prophetess, the wife of Lappidoth, judged Israel at that time.
當時ラピドテの妻なる預言者デボラ、イスラエルの士師なりき
5 She lived under Deborah’s palm tree between Ramah and Bethel in the hill country of Ephraim; and the children of Israel came up to her for judgement.
彼エフライムの山のラマとベテルの間に在るデボラの棕櫚の樹の下に坐せりイスラエルの子孫はその許に上りて審判を受く
6 She sent and called Barak the son of Abinoam out of Kedesh Naphtali, and said to him, “Hasn’t the LORD, the God of Israel, commanded, ‘Go and lead the way to Mount Tabor, and take with you ten thousand men of the children of Naphtali and of the children of Zebulun?
デボラ人をつかはしてケデシ、ナフタリよりアビノアムの子バラクを招きこれにいひけるはイスラエルの神ヱホバ汝に斯く命じたまふにあらずやいはく汝ナフタリの子孫とゼブルンの子孫とを一萬人ひきゐゆきてタボル山におもむけ
7 I will draw to you, to the river Kishon, Sisera, the captain of Jabin’s army, with his chariots and his multitude; and I will deliver him into your hand.’”
我ヤビンの軍勢の長シセラおよびその戰車とその群衆とをキシオン河に引き寄せて汝のもとに至らせ之を汝の手に付すべし
8 Barak said to her, “If you will go with me, then I will go; but if you will not go with me, I will not go.”
バラク之にいひけるは汝もし我とともにゆかば我往べし然ど汝もし我とともに行ずば我行ざるべし
9 She said, “I will surely go with you. Nevertheless, the journey that you take won’t be for your honour; for the LORD will sell Sisera into a woman’s hand.” Deborah arose, and went with Barak to Kedesh.
デボラいひけるは我かならず汝とともに往くべし然ど汝は今往くところの途にては榮譽を得ることなからんヱホバ婦人の手にシセラを賣りたまふべければなりとデボラすなはち起ちてバラクと共にケデシに往けり
10 Barak called Zebulun and Naphtali together to Kedesh. Ten thousand men followed him; and Deborah went up with him.
バラク、ゼブルンとナフタリをケデシに招き一萬人を從へて上るデボラもまた之とともに上れり
11 Now Heber the Kenite had separated himself from the Kenites, even from the children of Hobab, Moses’ brother-in-law, and had pitched his tent as far as the oak in Zaanannim, which is by Kedesh.
ここにケニ人ヘベルといふ者あり彼はモーセの外舅ホバブの裔なるがケニを離れてケデシの邊なるザアナイムの橡の樹のかたはらにその天幕を張り居たり
12 They told Sisera that Barak the son of Abinoam had gone up to Mount Tabor.
衆アビノアムの子バラクがタボル山に上れるよしをシセラに告げたりければ
13 Sisera gathered together all his chariots, even nine hundred chariots of iron, and all the people who were with him, from Harosheth of the Gentiles, to the river Kishon.
シセラそのすべての戰車すなはち鐵の戰車九百輌およびおのれとともに在るすべての民を異邦人のハロセテよりキシオン河に招き集へたり
14 Deborah said to Barak, “Go; for this is the day in which the LORD has delivered Sisera into your hand. Hasn’t the LORD gone out before you?” So Barak went down from Mount Tabor, and ten thousand men after him.
デボラ、バラクにいひけるは起よ是ヱホバがシセラを汝の手に付したまふ日なりヱホバ汝に先き立ちて出でたまひしにあらずやとバラクすなはち一萬人をしたがへてタボル山より下る
15 The LORD confused Sisera, all his chariots, and all his army, with the edge of the sword before Barak. Sisera abandoned his chariot and fled away on his feet.
ヱホバ刃をもてシセラとその諸の戰車およびその全軍をバラクの前に打敗りたまひたればシセラ戰車より飛び下り徒歩になりて遁れ走れり
16 But Barak pursued the chariots and the army to Harosheth of the Gentiles; and all the army of Sisera fell by the edge of the sword. There was not a man left.
バラク戰車と軍勢とを追ひ撃て異邦人のハロセテに至れりシセラの軍勢は悉く刃にたふれて殘れるもの一人もなかりしが
17 However Sisera fled away on his feet to the tent of Jael the wife of Heber the Kenite; for there was peace between Jabin the king of Hazor and the house of Heber the Kenite.
シセラは徒歩にて奔りケニ人ヘベルの妻ヤエルの天幕に來れり是はハゾルの王ヤビンとケニ人ヘベルの家とは互ひに睦じかりしゆゑなり
18 Jael went out to meet Sisera, and said to him, “Turn in, my lord, turn in to me; don’t be afraid.” He came in to her into the tent, and she covered him with a rug.
ヤエル出來りてシセラを迎へ之にいひけるは來れわが主よ入り來れ怖るるなかれとシセラその天幕に入たればヤエル被をもてこれを覆へり
19 He said to her, “Please give me a little water to drink; for I am thirsty.” She opened a container of milk, and gave him a drink, and covered him.
シセラ之にいひけるはねがはくは少しの水をわれに飮ませよ我渇けりとヤエルすなはち乳嚢を啓きて之に飮ませまた之を覆へり
20 He said to her, “Stand in the door of the tent, and if any man comes and enquires of you, and says, ‘Is there any man here?’ you shall say, ‘No.’”
シセラまた之にいひけるは天幕の門邊に立て居れもし人來り汝にとふて誰かここに居るやといはば否と答ふべしと
21 Then Jael, Heber’s wife, took a tent peg, and took a hammer in her hand, and went softly to him, and struck the pin into his temples, and it pierced through into the ground, for he was in a deep sleep; so he fainted and died.
彼疲れて熟睡せしかばヘベルの妻ヤエル天幕の釘子を取り手に鎚を携へてそのかたはらに忍び寄り鬢のあたりに釘子をうちこみて地に刺し通したればシセラすなはち死たり
22 Behold, as Barak pursued Sisera, Jael came out to meet him, and said to him, “Come, and I will show you the man whom you seek.” He came to her; and behold, Sisera lay dead, and the tent peg was in his temples.
バラク、シセラを追ひ來りしときヤエル之を出でむかへていひけるは來れ我汝の索るところの人を示さんとかれそのところに入て見にシセラ鬢のあたりに釘子うたれて死たふれをる
23 So God subdued Jabin the king of Canaan before the children of Israel on that day.
その日に神カナンの王ヤビンをイスラエルの子孫のまへに打敗りたまへり
24 The hand of the children of Israel prevailed more and more against Jabin the king of Canaan, until they had destroyed Jabin king of Canaan.
かくてイスラエルの子孫の手ますます強くなりてカナンの王ヤビンに勝ちつひにカナンの王ヤビンを亡ぼすに至れり
