Deuteronomy 18
1 'There is not to the priests the Levites — all the tribe of Levi — a portion and inheritance with Israel; fire-offerings of Jehovah, even His inheritance, they eat,
祭司たるレビ人およびレビの支派は都てイスラエルの中に分なく產業なし彼らはヱホバの火祭の品とその產業の物を食ふべし
2 and he hath no inheritance in the midst of his brethren; Jehovah Himself [is] his inheritance, as He hath spoken to him.
彼らはその兄弟の中間に產業を有じヱホバこれが產業たるたり即ちその曾て之に言たまひしが如し
3 'And this is the priest's right from the people, from those sacrificing a sacrifice, whether ox or sheep, he hath even given to the priest the leg, and the two cheeks, and the stomach;
祭司が民より受べき分は是なり即ち凡て犠牲を献ぐる者は牛にもあれ羊にもあれその肩と兩方の頬と胃とを祭司に與ふべし
4 the first of thy corn, of thy new wine, and of thine oil, and the first of the fleece of thy flock, thou dost give to him;
また汝の穀物と酒と油の初および羊の毛の初をも之にあたふべし
5 for on him hath Jehovah thy God fixed, out of all thy tribes, to stand to serve in the name of Jehovah, He and his sons continually.
其は汝の神ヱホバ汝の諸の支派の中より彼を選び出し彼とその子孫をして永くヱホバの名をもて立て奉事をなさしめたまへばなり
6 'And when the Levite cometh from one of thy cities out of all Israel, where he hath sojourned, and hath come with all the desire of his soul unto the place which Jehovah doth choose,
レビ人はイスラエルの全地の中何の處に居る者にもあれその寄寓たる汝の邑を出てヱホバの選びたま處に到るあらば
7 then he hath ministered in the name of Jehovah his God, like all his brethren, the Levites, who are standing there before Jehovah,
その人はヱホバの前に侍るその諸兄弟のレビ人とおなじくその神ヱホバの名をもて奉事をなすことを得べし
8 portion as portion they do eat, apart from his sold things, with the fathers.
その人の得て食ふ分は彼らと同じ但しその父の遺業を賣て獲たる物はこの外に彼に屬す
9 'When thou art coming in unto the land which Jehovah thy God is giving to thee, thou dost not learn to do according to the abominations of those nations:
汝の神ヱホバの汝に賜ふ池にいたるに及びて汝その國々の民の憎むべき行爲を倣ひ行ふなかれ
10 there is not found in thee one causing his son and his daughter to pass over into fire, a user of divinations, an observer of clouds, and an enchanter, and a sorcerer,
汝らの中間にその男子女子をして火の中を通らしむる者あるべからずまた卜筮する者邪法を行なふ者禁厭する者魔術を使ふ者
11 and a charmer, and one asking at a familiar spirit, and a wizard, and one seeking unto the dead.
法印を結ぶ者憑鬼する者巫覡の業をなす者死人に詢ことをする者あるべからず
12 'For the abomination of Jehovah [is] every one doing these, and because of these abominations is Jehovah thy God dispossessing them from thy presence.
凡て是等の事を爲す者はヱホバこれを憎たまふ汝の神ヱホバが彼らを汝の前より逐はらひたまひしも是等の憎むべき事のありしに因てなり
13 Perfect thou art with Jehovah thy God,
汝の神ヱホバの前に汝完き者たれ
14 for these nations whom thou art possessing, unto observers of clouds, and unto diviners, do hearken; and thou — not so hath Jehovah thy God suffered thee.
汝が逐はらふ故の國々の民は邪法師卜筮師などに聽ことをなせり然ど汝には汝の神ヱホバ然する事を許したまはず
15 'A prophet out of thy midst, out of thy brethren, like to me, doth Jehovah thy God raise up to thee — unto him ye hearken;
汝の神ヱホバ汝の中汝の兄弟の中より我のごとき一箇の預言者を汝のために興したまはん汝ら之に聽ことをすべし
16 according to all that thou didst ask from Jehovah thy God, in Horeb, in the day of the assembly, saying, Let me not add to hear the voice of Jehovah my God, and this great fire let me not see any more, and I die not;
是まったく汝が集會の日にホレブにおいて汝の神ヱホバに求めたる所なり即ち汝言けらく我をして重てこの我神ヱホバの聲を聞しむる勿れまた重てこの大なる火を見さする勿れ恐くは我死んと
17 and Jehovah saith unto me, They have done well that they have spoken;
是においてヱホバ我に言たまひけるは彼らの言る所は善し
18 a prophet I raise up to them, out of the midst of their brethren, like to thee; and I have given my words in his mouth, and he hath spoken unto them all that which I command him;
我かれら兄弟の中より汝のごとき一箇の預言者を彼らのために興し我言をその口に授けん我が彼に命ずる言を彼ことごとく彼らに告べし
19 and it hath been — the man who doth not hearken unto My words which he doth speak in My name, I require [it] of him.
凡て彼が吾名をもて語るところの吾言に聽したがはざる者は我これを罰せん
20 'Only, the prophet who presumeth to speak a word in My name — that which I have not commanded him to speak — and who speaketh in the name of other gods — even that prophet hath died.
但し預言者もし我が語れと命ぜざる言を吾名をもて縦肆に語りまたは他の神々の名をもて語ることを爲すならばその預言者は殺さるべし
21 'And when thou sayest in thy heart, How do we know the word which Jehovah hath not spoken? —
汝あるひは心に謂ん我ら如何にしてその言のヱホバの言たまふ者にあらざるを知んと
22 that which the prophet speaketh in the name of Jehovah, and the thing is not, and cometh not — it [is] the word which Jehovah hath not spoken; in presumption hath the prophet spoken it; — thou art not afraid of him.
然ば若し預言者ありてヱホバの名をもて語ることをなすにその言就ずまた效あらざる時は是ヱホバの語りたまふ言にあらずしてその預言者が縦肆に語るところなり汝その預言者を畏るるに及ばす
