Genesis 23
1 Forsothe Sare lyuede an hundrid and seuene and twenti yeer,
サラ百二十七歳なりき是即ちサラの齡の年なり
2 and diede in the citee of Arbee, which is Ebron, in the lond of Chanaan; and Abraham cam to biweyle and biwepe hir.
サラ、キリアテアルバにて死り是はカナンの地のヘブロンなりアブラハム至りてサラのために哀み且哭り
3 And whanne he hadde rise fro the office of the deed bodi, he spak to the sones of Heth, and seide,
斯てアブラハム死人の前より起ち出てヘテの子孫に語りて言けるは
4 Y am a comelyng and a pilgrym anentis you; yyue ye to me riyt of sepulcre with you, that Y birie my deed body.
我は汝等の中の賓旅なり寄居者なり請ふ汝等の中にて我は墓地を與へて吾が所有となし我をして吾が死人を出し葬ることを得せしめよ
5 And the sones of Heth answeriden, and seiden, Lord, here thou vs;
ヘテの子孫アブラハムに應て之に言ふ
6 thou art the prince of God anentis vs; birie thou thi deed bodi in oure chosun sepulcris, and no man schal mow forbede thee, that ne thou birie thi deed bodi in the sepulcre of him.
我主よ我等に聽たまへ我等の中にありて汝は神の如き君なり我等の墓地の佳者を擇みて汝の死人を葬れ我等の中一人も其墓地を汝にをしみて汝をしてその死人を葬らしめざる者なかるべし
7 And Abraham roos, and worschipide the puple of the lond, that is, the sones of Heth.
是に於てアブラハム起ち其地の民ヘテの子孫に對て躬を鞠む
8 And he seide to hem, If it plesith youre soule that Y birie my deed bodi, here ye me, and preie ye for me to Efron, the sone of Seor,
而して彼等と語ひて言けるは若我をしてわが死人を出し葬るを得せしむる事汝等の意ならば請ふ我に聽て吾ためにゾハルの子エフロンに求め
9 that he yyue to me the double caue, whiche he hath in the vttirmoste part of his feeld; for sufficiaunt money yyue he it to me bifore you into possessioun of sepulcre.
彼をして其野の極端に有るマクペラの洞穴を我に與へしめよ彼其十分の値を取て之を我に與へ汝等の中にてわが所有なる墓地となさば善し
10 Forsothe Efron dwellide in the myddis of the sones of Heth. And Efron answerde to Abraham, while alle men herden that entriden bi the yate of that citee,
時にエフロン、ヘテの子孫の中に坐しゐたりヘテ人エフロン、ヘテの子孫即ち凡て其邑の門に入る者の聽る前にてアブラハムに應へて言けるは
11 and seide, My lord, it schal not be doon so, but more herkne thou that that Y seie; Y yyue to thee the feeld, and the denne which is therine, while the sones of my puple ben present; birie thou thi deed bodi.
吾主よ我に聽たまへ其野は我汝に輿ふ又其中の洞穴も我之を汝に輿ふ我わが民なる衆人の前にて之を汝あたふ汝の死人を葬れ
12 Abraham worschipide bifor the Lord, and bifor the puple of the lond,
是に於てアブラハム其地の民の前に躬を鞠たり
13 and he spak to Efron, while his puple stood aboute, Y biseche, that thou here me; Y schal yyue money for the feeld, resseyue thou it, and so Y schal birie my deed bodi in the feeld.
而して彼其地の民に聽る前にてエフロンに語りて言けるは汝若之を肯はば請ふ吾に聽け我其野の値を汝に償はん汝之を吾より取れ我わが死人を彼處に葬らん
14 And Efron answerde, My lord,
エフロン、アブラハムに答て曰けるは
15 here thou me, the lond which thou axist is worth foure hundrid siclis of siluer, that is the prijs bitwixe me and thee, but hou myche is this? birie thou thi deed bodi.
わが主よ我に聽たまへ彼地は銀四百シケルに當る是は我と汝の間に豈道に足んや然ば汝の死人を葬れ
16 And whanne Abraham hadde herd this, he noumbride the monei which Efron axide, while the sones of Heth herden, foure hundrid siclis of siluer, and of preuyd comyn monei.
アブラハ、ムエフロンの言に從ひエフロンがヘテの子孫の聽る前にて言たる所の銀を秤り商買の中の通用銀四百シケルを之に輿へたり
17 And the feeld that was sumtyme of Efron, in which feeld was a double denne, biholdinge to Mambre, as wel thilke feeld as the denne and alle the trees therof, in alle termes therof bi cumpas, was confermed to Abraham in to possessioun,
マムレの前なるマクペラに在るエフロンの野は野も其中の洞穴も野の中と其四周の堺にある樹も皆
18 while the sones of Heth seiyen and alle men that entriden bi the yate of that citee.
ヘテの子孫の前即ち凡て其邑に入る者の前にてアブラハムの所有と定りぬ
19 And so Abraham biriede Sare, his wijf, in the double denne of the feeld, that bihelde to Mambre; this is Ebron in the lond of Chanaan.
厥後アブラハム其妻サラをマムレの前なるマクペラの野の洞穴に葬れり是即ちカナンの地のヘブロンなり
20 And the feeld, and the denne that was therynne, was confermyd of the sones of Heth to Abraham, in to possessioun of sepulcre.
斯く其野と其中の洞穴はヘテの子孫之をアブラハムの所有なる墓地と定めたり
