1 And Josue gaderide alle the lynagis of Israel in to Sechem; and he clepide the grettere men in birthe, and the princes, and iugis, and maistris; and thei stoden in the siyt of the Lord.

茲にヨシユア、イスラエルの一切の支派をシケムに集めイスラエルの長老首領裁判人官吏などを招きよせて諸共に神の前に進みいで

2 And he spak thus to the puple, The Lord God of Israel seith these thingis, Youre fadris dwelliden at the bigynnyng biyende the flood Eufrates, Thare, the fadir of Abraham, and Nachor, and thei serueden alien goddis.

而してヨシユアすべての民に言けるはイスラヱルの神ヱホバかく言たまふ汝らの遠祖すなはちアブラハムの父たりナホルの父たりしテラのごときは在昔河の彼旁に住て皆他神に事へたりしが

3 Therfor Y took youre fadir Abraham fro the coostis of Mesopotanye, and Y brouyte hym in to the lond of Canaan; and Y multipliede `the seed of hym,

我なんぢらの先祖アブラハムを河の彼旁より携へ出してカナンの全地を導きてすぎその子孫を増んとして之にイサクを與へたり

4 and Y yaf Isaac to hym; and eft Y yaf to Isaac, Jacob, and Esau, of whiche Y yaf to Esau the hil of Seir, to `haue in possessioun; forsothe Jacob and hise sones yeden doun in to Egipt.

而してイサクにヤコブとエサウを與へエサウにセイル山を與へて獲させたりまたヤコブとその子等はエジプトに下れり

5 And Y sente Moises and Aaron, and Y smoot Egipt with many signes and wondris,

我モーセおよびアロンを遣はしまた災禍をエジプトに降せり我がその中に爲たる所の事のごとし而して後われ汝らを導びき出せり

6 and Y ledde you and youre fadris out of Egipt. And ye camen to the see, and Egipcians pursueden youre fadris with charis, and multitude of knyytis, `til to the Reed See.

我なんぢらの父をエジプト入り導き出し汝ら海に至りしにエジプト人戰車と騎兵とをもて汝らの後を追て紅海に來りけるが

7 Forsothe the sones of Israel crieden to the Lord, and he settide derknessis bitwixe you and Egipcians; and he brouyte the see on hem, and hilide hem. Youre iyen sien alle thingis, whiche Y dide in Egipt. And ye dwelliden in wildirnesse in myche tyme.

汝らの父等ヱホバに呼はりければヱホバ黑暗を汝らとエジプト人との間に置き海を彼らの上に傾むけて彼らを淹へり汝らは我がエジプトにて爲たる事を目に觀たり斯て汝らは日ひさしく曠野に住をれり

8 And Y brouyte you in to the lond of Ammorrei, that dwellide biyende Jordan; and whanne thei fouyten ayens you, Y bitook hem in to youre hondis, and ye hadden in possessioun `the lond of hem, and ye killiden hem.

我またヨルダンの彼旁にすめるアモリ人の地に汝らを携へいれたり彼ら汝らと戰ひければ我かれらを汝らの手に付しかれらの地をなんぢらに獲しめ彼らを汝らの前より滅ぼし去り

9 Sotheli Balach, the sone of Sephor, the king of Moab, roos, and fauyt ayens Israel; and he sente, and clepide Balaam, the sone of Beor, that he schulde curse you.

時にモアブの王チツポルの子バラク起てイスラエルに敵し人を遣はしてペオルの子バラムを招きて汝らを詛はせんとしたりしが

10 And Y nolde here hym, but ayenward bi hym Y blesside you, and delyuerede you fro hise hondis.

我バラムに聽ことを爲ざりければ彼かへつて汝らを祝せり斯われ汝らを彼の手より拯出せり

11 And ye passiden Jordan, and camen to Jerico; and men of that citee fouyten ayens you, Ammorrei, and Feresei, and Cananei, Ethei, and Gergesei, and Euei, and Jebusei; and Y bitook hem in to youre hondis.

而して汝らヨルダンを濟りてヱリコに至りしにヱリコの人々すなはちアモリ人ペリジ人カナン人ヘテ人ギルガシ人ヒビ人ヱブス人等なんぢらに敵したりしが我かれらを汝らの手に付せり

12 And Y sente flies with venemouse tongis bifor you, and Y castide hem out of her places; Y kyllide twei kyngis of Ammorreis, not in thi swerd and bowe.

われ黄蜂を汝らの前に遣はして彼のアモリ人の王二人を汝らの前より逐はらへり汝らの劍または汝らの弓を用ひて斯せしに非ず

13 And Y yaf to you the lond in which ye traueiliden not, and citees whiche ye bildiden not, that ye schulden dwelle in tho, and vyneris, and places of olyue trees, whiche ye plauntiden not.

而して我なんちらが勞せしに非ざる地を汝らに與へ汝らが建たるに非ざる邑を汝らに與へたり汝らは今その中に住をる汝らは亦己が作りたるに非ざる葡萄園と橄欖園とにつきて食ふ

14 Now therfor drede ye the Lord, and serue ye hym with perfite herte and moost trewe; and do ye awei the goddis, to whiche youre fadris seruyden in Mesopotanye, and in Egipt; and serue ye the Lord.

然ば汝らヱホバを畏れ赤心と眞實とをもて之に事へ汝らの先祖が河の彼邊およびエジプトにて事へたる神を除きてヱホバに事へよ

15 But if it semeth yuel to you, `that ye serue the Lord, chesyng is youun to you; chese ye to you to dai that, that plesith, whom ye owen most to serue; whether to goddis, whiche youre fadris serueden in Mesopotanye, whether to the goddis of Ammorreis, in whose lond ye dwellen; forsothe Y, and myn hows schulen serue the Lord.

汝ら若ヱホバに事ふることを惡とせば汝らの先祖が河の彼邊にて事へし神々にもあれ又は汝らが今をる地のアモリ人の神々にもあれ汝らの事ふべき者を今日選べ但し我と我家とは共にヱホバに事へん

16 And al the puple answeride and seide, Fer be it fro vs that we forsake the Lord, and serue alien goddis.

民こたへて言けるはヱホバを棄て他神に事ふることは我等きはめて爲じ

17 `Oure Lord God hym silf ledde vs and oure fadris out of the lond of Egipt, fro the hows of seruage, and dide grete signes in oure siyt; and he kepte vs in al the weie, bi which we yeden, and in alle puplis, bi whiche we passiden; and he castide out alle folkis,

其は我らの神ヱホバみづから我等と我らの先祖とをエジプトの地奴隸の家より導き上りかつ我らの目の前にかの大なる徴を行ひ我らが往し一切の路にて我らを守りまた我らが其中間を通りし一切の民の中にて我らを守りたまひければなり

18 Ammorrei, the dwellere of the lond, in to which we entriden. Therfor we schulen serue the Lord, for he is `oure Lord God.

而してヱホバ此地に住をりしアモリ人などいふ一切の民を我らの前より逐はらひたまへり然ば我らもヱホバに事へん彼は我らの神なればなり

19 And Josue seide to the puple, Ye moun not serue the Lord; for God is hooli, and a strong feruent louyere, and he foryyueth not youre trespassis and synnes.

ヨシユア民に言けるは汝らはヱホバに事ふること能はざらん其は彼は聖神また妬みたまふ神にして汝らの罪愆を赦したまはざればなり

20 If ye forsaken the Lord, and seruen alien goddis, the Lord schal turne `hym silf, and schal turment you, and schal distrie, after that he hath youe goodis to you.

汝ら若ヱホバを棄て他神に事へなば汝らに福祉を降したまへる後にも亦ひるがへりて汝らに災禍を降して汝らを滅ぼしたまはん

21 And the puple seide to Josue, It schal not be so, as thou spekist, but we schulen serue the Lord.

民ヨシユアに言けるは否我ら必らずヱホバに事ふべしと

22 And Josue seide to the puple, Ye ben witnessis, that ye han chose the Lord to you, that ye serue him. And thei answeriden, We ben witnessis.

ヨシユア民に向ひて汝らはヱホバを選びて之に事へんといへりなんぢら自らその證人たりと言ければ皆我らは證人なりと答ふ

23 Therfor, he seide, Now do ye awei alien goddis fro the myddis of you, and bowe ye youre hertis to the Lord God of Israel.

ヨシユアまた言り然ば汝らの中にある異なる神を除きてイスラエルの神ヱホバに汝らの心を傾むけよ

24 And the puple seide to Josue, We schulen serue `oure Lord God, and we schulen be obedient to hise heestis.

民ヨシユアに言けるは我らの神ヱホバに我らは事へ其聲に我らは聽したがふべしと

25 Therfor Josue smoot a boond of pees in that dai, and settide forth to the puple comaundementis and domes in Sichen.

ヨシユアすなはち其日民と契約を結びシケムにおいて法度と定規とを彼らのために設けたり

26 And he wroot alle these wordis in the book of Goddis lawe. And he took a greet stoon, and puttide it vndur an ook, that was in the seyntuarie of the Lord.

ヨシユアこれらの言を神の律法の書に書しるし大なる石をとり彼處にてヱホバの聖所の傍なる樫の樹の下に之を立て

27 And he seide to al the puple, Lo! this stoon schal be to you in to witnessing, that ye herden alle the wordis of the Lord, whiche he spak to you, lest perauenture ye wolden denye aftirward, and lye to youre Lord God.

而してヨシユア一切の民に言けるは視よ此石われらの證となるべし是はヱホバの我らに語りたまひし言をことごとく聞たればなり然ば汝らが己の神を棄ること無らんために此石なんぢらの證となるべしと

28 And he lefte the puple, ech man in to his possessioun.

かくてヨシユア民を各々その產業に歸しさらしめたりき

29 And after these thingis Josue, the sone of Nun, the `seruaunt of the Lord, diede, an hundride yeer eld and ten.

是らの事の後ヱホバの僕ヌンの子ヨシユア百十歳にして死り

30 And thei birieden hym in the costis of his possessioun, in Thannath of Sare, which is set in the hil of Effraym, fro the north part of the hil Gaas.

人衆これをその產業の地の内にてテムナテセラに葬むれりテムナテセラはエフライムの山地にてガアシ山の北にあり

31 And Israel seruede the Lord in alle the daies of Josue, and of the eldre men, that lyueden in long tyme aftir Josue, and whiche eldre men knewen alle the werkis of the Lord, whiche he hadde do in Israel.

イスラエルはヨシユアの世にある日の間またヱホバがイスラエルのために行ひたまひし諸の事を識ゐてヨシユアの後に生存れる長老等の世にある日の間つねにヱホバに事へたり

32 Also `the sones of Israel birieden the boonys of Joseph, whiche thei baren fro Egipt in Sichen, in the part of the feeld, which feeld Jacob bouyte of the sones of Emor, fadir of Sichen, for an hundrid yonge scheep; and it was in to possessioun of the sones of Joseph.

イスラエルの子孫のエジプトより携さへ上りしヨセフの骨を昔ヤコブが銀百枚をもてシケムの父ハモルの子等より買たりしシケムの中なる一の地に葬れり是はヨセフの子孫の產業となりぬ

33 Also Eliazar, sone of Aaron, preest, diede; and Fynees and hise sones biryden hym in Gabaa, which was youun to hym in the hil of Efraym.

アロンの子エレアザルもまた死り人衆これを其子ピネハスがエフライムの山地にて受たりし岡に葬れり
