< Genesis 43 >

1 In the meene tyme hungur oppresside greetli al the lond;
饑饉その地にはげしかりき
2 and whanne the meetis weren wastid, whiche thei brouyten fro Egipt, Jacob seide to hise sones, Turne ye ayen, and bie ye a litil of meetis to vs.
茲に彼等エジプトよりもちきたりし穀物を食つくせし時父かられらに再びゆきて少許の糧食を買きたれといひければ
3 Judas answeride, The ilke man denounside to vs vndir witnessyng of an ooth, and seide, Ye schulen not se my face, if ye schulen not brynge with you youre leeste brother;
ユダ父にかたりていひけるは彼人かたく我等をいましめていふ汝らの弟汝らとともにあるにあらざれば汝らはわが面をみるべからずと
4 therfor if thou wolt sende hym with vs, we schulen go to gidere, and we schulen bie necessaries to thee;
汝もし弟をわれらとともに遣さば我等下て汝のために糧食を買ふべし
5 ellis if thou wolt not, we schulen not go; for as we seiden ofte, the man denounside to vs, and seide, Ye schulen not se my face with out youre leeste brother.
されど汝もし彼をつかはさずば我等くだらざるべし其はかの人われらにむかひ汝等の弟なんぢらとともにあるにあらざれば汝ら吾面をみるべからずといひたればなりと
6 Forsothe Israel seide to hem, Ye diden this in to my wretchidnesse, that ye schewiden to hym, that ye hadden also another brother.
イスラエルいひけるは汝等なにゆゑに汝等に尚弟のあることを彼人につげて我を惡くなすや
7 And thei answeriden, The man axide vs bi ordre oure generacioun, if the fadir lyuede, if we hadden a brother; and we answeriden suyngli to hym, bi that that he axide; whether we myyten wite that he wolde seie, Brynge ye youre brothir with you?
彼等いふ其人われらの模樣とわれらの親族を問ただして汝らの父は尚生存へをるや汝等は弟をもつやといひしにより其言の條々にしたがひて彼につげたるなり我等いかでか彼が汝等の弟をつれくだれといふならんとしるをえん
8 And Judas seide to his fadir, Sende the child with me, that we go, and moun lyue, lest we dien, and oure litle children;
ユダ父イスラエルにいひけるは童子をわれとともに遣はせ我等たちて往ん然らば我儕と汝およびわれらの子女生ることを得て死をまぬかるべし
9 Y take the child, require thou hym of myn hoond; if Y schal not brynge ayen, and bitake hym to thee, Y schal be gilti of synne ayens thee in al tyme;
我彼の身を保はん汝わが手にかれを問へ我もし彼を汝につれかへりて汝のまへに置ずば我永遠に罪をおはん
10 if delai hadde not be, we hadden come now anothir tyme.
我儕もし濡滯ことなかりしならば必ずすでにゆきて再びかへりしならん
11 Therfor Israel, `the fadir of hem, seide to hem, If it is nede so, do ye that that ye wolen; `take ye of the beste fruytis of the lond in youre vesselis, and `bere ye yiftis to the man, a litil of gumme, and of hony, and of storax, and of mirre, and of therebynte, and of alemaundis;
父イスラエル彼等にいひけるは然ば斯なせ汝等國の名物を器にいれ携へくだりて彼人に禮物とせよ乳香少許、蜜少許、香物、沒藥、胡桃および巴旦杏
12 and `bere ye with you double money, and `bere ye ayen that money which ye founden in baggis, lest perauenture it be doon bi errour;
又手に一倍の金を取りゆけ汝等の嚢の口に返してありし彼金を再び手にたづさへ行べし恐くは差謬にてありしならん
13 but also take ye youre brother, and go ye to the man;
且また汝らの弟を挈へ起てふたたたび其人の所にゆけ
14 forsothe my God Almyyti mak him pesible to you, and sende he ayen youre brother, whom he holdith in boondis, and this Beniamyn; forsothe Y schal be as maad bare without sones.
ねがはくは全能の神その人のまへにて汝等を矜恤みその人をして汝等の他の兄弟とベニヤミンを放ちかへさしめたまはんことを若われ子に別るべくあらば別れんと
15 Therfor the men token yiftis, and double monei, and Beniamyn; and thei yeden doun in to Egipt, and stoden bifore Joseph.
是に於てかの人々その禮物を執り一倍の金を手に執りベニヤミンを携へて起てエジプトにくだりヨセフの前に立つ
16 And whanne he hadde seyn `hem and Beniamyn togidere, he comaundide the dispendere of his hows, and seide, Lede these men in to the hous, and sle beestis, and make a feeste; for thei schulen ete with me to dai.
ヨセフ、ベニヤミンの彼らと偕なるを見てその家宰にいひけるはこの人々を家に導き畜を屠て備へよこの人々卓午に我とともに食をなすべければなり
17 He dide as it was comaundid, and ledde the men in to the hows;
其人ヨセフのいひしごとくなし其人この人々をヨセフの家に導けり
18 and there thei weren aferd, and seiden to gidere, We ben brouyt in for the monei which we baren ayen bifore in oure sackis, that he putte chalenge `in to vs, and make suget bi violence to seruage bothe vs and oure assis.
人々ヨセフの家に導かれたるによりて懼れいひけるは初めにわれらの嚢にかへりてありし金の事のために我等はひきいれらる是われらを抑留へて我等にせまり執へて奴隸となし且われらの驢馬を取んとするなりと
19 Wherfor thei neiyeden in the `yatis, and spaken to the dispendere,
彼等すなはちヨセフの家宰に進みよりて家の入口にて之にかたりて
20 Lord, we preien that thou here vs; we camen doun now bifore that we schulden bie metis;
いひけるは主よ我等實に最初くだりて糧食を買たり
21 whanne tho weren bouyt, whanne we camen to the ynne, we openeden oure baggis, and we founden money in the mouth of sackis, which money we han brouyt ayen now in the same weiyte;
しかるに我等旅邸に至りて嚢を啓き見るに各人の金その嚢の口にありて其金の量全かりし然ば我等これを手にもちかへれり
22 but also we han brouyt other siluer, that we bie tho thingis that ben nedeful to vs; it is not in oure conscience, who puttide the money in oure pursis.
又糧食を買ふ他の金をも手にもちくだる我等の金を嚢にいれたる者は誰なるかわれらは知ざるなり
23 And he answerde, Pees be to you, nyle ye drede; youre God and God of youre fadir yaf to you tresouris in youre baggis; for I haue the monei preued, which ye yauen to me. And he ledde out Symeon to hem;
彼いひけるは汝ら安ぜよ懼るなかれ汝らの神汝らの父の神財寶を汝等の嚢におきて汝らに賜ひしなり汝らの金は我にとどけりと遂にシメオンを彼等の所にたづさへいだせり
24 and whanne thei weren brouyt in to the hows, he brouyte watir, and thei waischiden her feet, and he yaf `meetis to her assis.
かくて其人この人々をヨセフの家に導き水をあたへてその足を濯はしめ又その驢馬に飼草をあたふ
25 Sotheli thei maden redi yiftis til Joseph entride at myd day, for thei hadden herd that thei schulden ete breed there.
彼等其處にて食をなすなりと聞しかば禮物を調へてヨセフの日午に來るをまつ
26 Therfor Joseph entride in to his hows, and thei offriden yiftis to hym, and helden in the hondis, and worschipiden lowe to erthe.
茲にヨセフ家にかへりしかば彼等その手の禮物を家にもちきたりてヨセフの許にいたり地に伏てこれを拜す
27 And he grette hem ayen mekeli; and he axide hem, and seide, Whether youre fadir, the elde man, is saaf, of whom ye seiden to me? lyueth he yit?
ヨセフかれらの安否をとふていふ汝等の父汝らが初にかたりしその老人は恙なきや尚いきながらへをるや
28 Whiche answeriden, He is hool, thi seruaunt oure fadir lyueth yit; and thei weren bowid, and worschipiden hym.
彼等こたへてわれらの父汝の僕は恙なくしてなほ生ながらへをるといひ身をかがめ禮をなす
29 Forsothe Joseph reyside hise iyen, and siy Beniamyn his brother of the same wombe, and seide, Is this youre litil brother, of whom ye seiden to me? And eft Joseph seide, My sone, God haue merci of thee.
ヨセフ目をあげてその母の子なる己の弟ベニヤミンを見ていひけるは是は汝らが初に我にかたりし汝らの若き兄弟なるや又いふわが子よ願はくは神汝をめぐみたまはんことをと
30 And Joseph hastide in to the hous, for his entrailis weren moued on his brother, and teeris brasten out, and he entride into a closet, and wepte.
ヨセフその弟のために心焚るがごとくなりしかば急ぎてその泣べきところを尋ね室にいりて其處に泣り
31 And eft whanne the face was waischun, he yede out, and refreynede hym silf, and seide, Sette ye looues.
而して面をあらひて出で自から抑へて食をそなへよといふ
32 `And whanne tho weren set to Joseph by hym silf, and to the britheren bi hem silf, and to Egipcyans that eeten to gidre by hem silf; for it is vnleueful to Egipcians to ete with Ebrewis, and thei gessen sich a feeste vnhooli.
すなはちヨセフはヨセフ彼等は彼等陪食するエジプト人はエジプト人と別々に之を供ふ是はエジプト人ヘブル人と共に食することをえざるによる其事エジプト人の穢はしとするところなればなり
33 Therfor thei saten bifore hym, the firste gendrid bi the rite of his firste gendryng, and the leeste bi his age; and thei wondriden greetli,
かくて彼等ヨセフの前に坐るに長子をばその長たるにしたがひて坐らせ若き者をばその幼少にしたがひてすわらせければその人々駭きあへり
34 whanne the partis weren takun whiche thei hadden resseyued of him, and the more part cam to Beniamyn, so that it passide in fyue partis; and thei drunken, and weren fillid with him.
ヨセフ己のまへより皿を彼等に供ふベニヤミンの皿は他の人のよりも五倍おほかりきかれら飮てヨセフとともに樂めり
