< Nehemiah 13 >
1 Forsothe in that dai it was red in the book of Moises, in heryng of the puple; and it was foundun writun ther ynne, that Amonytis and Moabitis owen not entre in to the chirche of God til in to with outen ende;
その日モーセの書を読て民に聴しめけるに其中に録して云ふアンモニ人およびモアブ人は何時までも神の會に入べからず
2 for thei metten not the sones of Israel with breed and watir, and thei hiriden ayens the sones of Israel Balaam, for to curse hem; and oure God turnede the cursyng in to blessyng.
是は彼らパンと水とをもてイスラエルの子孫を迎へずして還て之を詛はせんとてバラムを傭ひたりしが故なり斯りしかども我らの神はその呪詛を變て祝福となしたまへりと
3 Sotheli it was doon, whanne `thei hadden herd the lawe, thei departiden ech alien fro Israel.
衆人この律法を聞てのち雑りたる民を盡くイスラエルより分ち離てり
4 And upon these thingis Eliasib, the prest, `was blameful, that was the souereyn in the tresorie of the hows of oure God, and was the neiybore of Tobie.
是より先我らの神の家の室を掌れる祭司エリアシブといふ者トビヤと近くなりたれば
5 Therfor he made to him a grete treserie, `that is, in the hows of God; and men kepynge yiftis, and encence, and vessels, and the tithe of wheete, of wyn, and of oile, the partis of dekenes, and of syngeris, and of porteris, and the firste fruytis of prestis, `weren there bifor him.
彼のために大なる室を備ふ其室は元來素祭の物乳香器皿および例によりてレビ人謳歌者門を守る者等に與ふる穀物酒油の什一ならびに祭司に與る挙祭の物を置し處なり
6 Forsothe in alle these thingis Y was not in Jerusalem; for in the two and thrittithe yeer of Artaxerses, kyng of Babiloyne, Y cam to the kyng, and in the ende of daies Y preiede the kyng.
常時は我ヱルサレムに居ざりき我はバビロンの王アルタシヤスタの三十二年に王の所に往たりしが數日の後王に暇を乞て
7 And Y cam in to Jerusalem, and Y vndurstood the yuel, which Eliasib hadde do to Tobie, to make to hym a tresour in the porchis of Goddis hows; and to me it semede ful yuel.
エルサレムに來りエリアシブがトビヤのために爲たる惡事すなはちかれがために神の家の庭に一の室を備へし事を詳悉にせり
8 And Y castide forth the vessels of the hows of Tobie out of the tresorie;
我はなはだこれを憂ひてトビヤの家の器皿をことごとくその室より投いだし
9 and Y comaundide, and thei clensiden the tresories; and Y brouyte ayen there the vessels of Goddis hous, sacrifice, and encence.
頓て命じてすべての室を潔めさせ而して神の家の器皿および素祭乳香などを再び其處に携へいれたり
10 And Y knew that the partes of dekenes weren not youun, and that ech man of the dekenes and of the syngeris, and of hem that mynystriden hadde fledde in to his cuntrei;
我また査べ観しにレビ人そのうくべき分を與へられざりきこの故に其職務をなす所のレビ人および謳歌者等各々おのれの田に奔り歸りぬ
11 and Y dide the cause ayens magistratis, and Y seide, Whi `forsaken we the hous of God? And Y gaderide hem togidere, `that is, dekenes and mynystris `that hadden go awei, and Y made hem to stonde in her stondyngis.
是において我何故に神の室を棄させしやと言て牧伯等を詰り頓てまたレビ人を招き集めてその故の所に立しめたり
12 And al Juda brouyte the tithe of wheete, of wiyn, and of oile, in to bernes.
斯りしかばユダ人みな穀物酒油の什一を府庫に携へ來れり
13 And we ordeyneden on the bernes, Selemye, the prest, and Sadoch, the writere, and Phadaie, of the dekenes, and bisidis hem, Anan, the sone of Zaccur, the sone of Mathanye; for thei weren preued feithful men, and the partis of her britheren weren bitakun to hem.
その時我祭司シレミヤ學士ザドクおよびレビ人ペダヤを府庫の有司とし之にマツタニヤの子ザツクルの子ハナンを副て庫をつかさどらしむ彼らは忠信なる者と思はれたればなり其職は兄弟等に分配るの事なりき
14 My God, haue mynde of me for this thing, and do thou not awei my merciful doyngis, whiche Y dide in the hows of my God, and in hise cerymonyes.
わが神よ此事のために我を記念たまへ我神の室とその職事のために我が行ひし善事を拭ひ去たまはざれ
15 Yn tho daies Y siy in Juda men tredinge pressours in the sabat, `men bryngynge hepis, and chargynge on assis wiyn, and grapis, and figis, and al birthun, and `bringynge in to Jerusalem in the dai of sabat; and Y witnesside to hem, that thei schulden sille in the dai, in which it was leueful to sille.
當時われ観しにユダの中にて安息日に酒榨を踏む者あり麥束を持きたりて驢馬に負するあり亦酒葡萄無花果および各種の荷を安息日にヱルサレムに携へいるるあり我かれらが食物を鬻ぎをる日に彼らを戒しめたり
16 And men of Tire dwelliden `in it, and brouyten in fischis, and alle thingis set to sale, and thei selden `in the sabatis to the sones of Juda and of Jerusalem.
彼處にまたツロの人々も住をりしが魚および各種の貨物を携へいりて安息日にユダの人々に之を鬻ぎかつヱルサレムにて商賣せり
17 And Y rebuykide the principal men of Juda, and Y seide to hem, What is this yuel thing which ye doen, and maken vnhooli the daie of the sabat?
是において我ユダの貴き人々を詰りて之に言ふ汝ら何ぞ此惡き事をなして安息日を涜すや
18 Whether oure fadris diden not these thingis, and oure God brouyte on vs al this yuel, and on this citee? and `ye encreessen wrathfulnesse on Israel, in defoulynge the sabat.
汝らの先祖等も斯おこなはざりしや我らの神これが爲にこの一切の災禍を我らとこの邑とに降したまひしにあらずや然るに汝らは安息日を涜して更に大なる震怒をイスラエルに招くなりと
19 Forsothe it was doon, whanne the yatis of Jerusalem hadden restid in the dai of sabat, Y seide, Schitte ye the yatis; and thei schittiden the yatis; and I comaundide, that thei schuden not opene tho yatis til aftir the sabat. And of my children Y ordeynede noumbris on the yatis, that no man schulde brynge in a birthun in the dai of sabat.
而して安息日の前の日ヱルサレムの門々暗くならんとする頃ほひに我命じてその扉を閉させ安息日の過さるまで之を開くべからずと命じ我僕數人を門々に置て安息日に荷を携へいるる事なからしめたり
20 And marchauntis, and men sillinge alle thingis set to sale dwelliden with out Jerusalem onys and twies.
斯りしかば商賣および各種の品を賣る者等一二回ヱルサレムの外に宿れり
21 And Y aresonyde hem, and Y seide to hem, Whi dwellen ye euene ayens the wal? If ye doon this the secounde tyme, Y schal sette hond on you. Therfor fro that tyme thei camen not in the sabat.
我これを戒めてこれに言ふ汝ら石垣の前に宿るは何ぞや汝等もし重ねて然なさば我なんぢらに手をかけんと其時より後は彼ら安息日には來らざりき
22 Also Y seide to dekenes, that thei schulden be clensid, and that thei schulden come to kepe the yatis, and to halowe the dai of sabat. And therfor for this thing, my God, haue mynde of me, and spare me bi the mychilnesse of thi merciful doyngis.
我またレビ人に命じてその身を潔めさせ來りて門を守らしめて安息日を聖くす我神よ我ために此事を記念し汝の大なる仁慈をもて我を憫みたまへ
23 But also in tho daies Y siy Jewys weddinge wyues, wymmen of Azotus, and wymmen of Amonytis, and wymmen of Moabitis.
富時われアシドド、アンモン、モアブなどの婦女を娶りしユダヤ人を見しに
24 And her children spaken half part bi the speche of Ayotus, and kouden not speke bi the speche of Jewis, and thei spaken bi the langage of puple and of puple.
その子女はアシドドの言語を半雑へて言ひユダヤの言語を言ことあたはず各國の言語を雑へ用ふ
25 And Y rebuykide hem, and Y curside; and Y beet the men `of hem, and Y made hem ballid, and Y made hem to swere bi the Lord, that thei schulden not yyue her douytris to the sones of `tho aliens, and that thei schulden not take of the douytris of `tho aliens to her sones, and to hem silf;
我彼等を詰りまた詬りその中の數人を撻ちその毛を抜き神を指て誓はしめて言ふ汝らは彼らの男子におのが女子を與ふべからず又なんぢらの男子あるひはおのれ自身のために彼らの女子を娶るべからず
26 and Y seide, Whether Salomon, the kyng of Israel, synnede not in siche a thing? And certis in many folkis was no kyng lijk hym, and he was loued of his God, and God settide hym kyng on al Israel, and therfor alien wymmen brouyten hym to synne.
是らの事についてイスラエルの王ソロモンは罪を獲たるに非ずや彼がごとき王は衆多の國民の中にもあらずして神に愛せられし者なり神かれをイスラエル全國の王となしたまへり然るに尚ほ異邦の婦女等はこれに罪を犯さしめたり
27 Whether also we vnobedient schulden do al this grete yuel, that we trespasse ayens `oure Lord God, and wedde alien wyues?
然ば汝らが異邦の婦女を娶りこの一切の大惡をなして我らの神に罪を犯すを我儕聴し置べけんや
28 Forsothe Sanabalath Horonyte hadde weddid a douyter of the sones of Joiada, sone of Eliasib, the grete prest, which Sanaballath Y droof awei fro me.
祭司の長エリアシブの子ヨイアダの一人の子はホロニ人サンバラテの婿なりけれぱ我これを逐出して我を離れしむ
29 My Lord God, haue mynde ayens hem, that defoulen presthod, and the riyt of prestis and of dekenes. Therfor I clenside hem fro alle aliens, and I ordeynede ordris of prestis and of dekenes,
わが神よ彼らは祭司の職を汚し祭司およびレビ人の契約に背きたり彼らのことを忘れたまふ勿れ
30 ech man in his seruice, and in the offring,
我かく人衆を潔めて異邦の物を盡く棄しめ祭司およびいビ人の班列を立て各々その職務に服せしめ
31 that is, dressing, of trees in tymes ordeyned, and in the firste fruytis. My God, haue mynde of me in to good.
また人衆をして薪柴の禮物をその定まる期に献げしめかつ初物を奉つらしむ我神よ我を憶ひ仁慈をもて我を待ひたまへ
