Genesis 26

1 And there is a famine in the land, besides the first famine which was in the days of Abraham, and Isaac goeth unto Abimelech king of the Philistines, to Gerar.

アブラハムの時にありし最初の饑饉の外に又其國に饑饉ありければイサク、ゲラルに往てペリシテ人の王アビメレクの許にいたれり

2 And Jehovah appeareth unto him, and saith, 'Go not down towards Egypt, tabernacle in the land concerning which I speak unto thee,

時にヱホバ彼にあらはれて言たまひけるはエジプトに下るなかれ吾汝に示すところの地にをれ

3 sojourn in this land, and I am with thee, and bless thee, for to thee and to thy seed I give all these lands, and I have established the oath which I have sworn to Abraham thy father;

汝此地にとどまれ我汝と共にありて汝を祝まん我是等の國を盡く汝および汝の子孫に與へ汝の父アブラハムに誓ひたる誓言を行ふべし

4 and I have multiplied thy seed as stars of the heavens, and I have given to thy seed all these lands; and blessed themselves in thy seed have all nations of the earth;

われ汝の子孫を増て天の星のごとくなし汝の子孫に凡て是等の國を與へん汝の子孫によりて天下の國民皆福祉を獲べし

5 because that Abraham hath hearkened to My voice, and keepeth My charge, My commands, My statutes, and My laws.'

是はアブラハムわが言に順ひわが職守とわが誡命とわが憲法とわが律法を守りしに因てなり

6 And Isaac dwelleth in Gerar;

イサク乃ちゲラルに居しが

7 and men of the place ask him of his wife, and he saith, 'She [is] my sister:' for he hath been afraid to say, 'My wife — lest the men of the place kill me for Rebekah, for she [is] of good appearance.'

處の人其妻の事をとへば我妹なりと言ふリベカは觀に美麗かりければ其處の人リベカの故をもて我を殺さんと謂て彼をわが妻と言をおそれたるなり

8 And it cometh to pass, when the days have been prolonged to him there, that Abimelech king of the Philistines looketh through the window, and seeth, and lo, Isaac is playing with Rebekah his wife.

イサク久しく彼處にをりし後一日ペリシテ人の王アビメレク\牖より望みてイサクが其妻リベカと嬉戲るを見たり

9 And Abimelech calleth for Isaac, and saith, 'Lo, she [is] surely thy wife; and how hast thou said, She [is] my sister?' and Isaac saith unto him, 'Because I said, Lest I die for her.'

是に於てアビメレク、イサクを召て言けるは彼は必ず汝の妻なり汝なんぞ吾妹といひしやイサク彼に言けるは恐くは我彼のために死るならんと思たればなり

10 And Abimelech saith, 'What [is] this thou hast done to us? as a little thing one of the people had lain with thy wife, and thou hadst brought upon us guilt;'

アビメレクいひけるは汝なんぞ此事を我等になすや民の一人もし輕々しく汝の妻と寢ることあらんその時は汝罪を我等に蒙らしめんと

11 and Abimelech commandeth all the people, saying, 'He who cometh against this man or against his wife, dying doth die.'

アビメレク乃ちすべて民に皆命じて此人と其妻にさはるものは必ず死すべしと言り

12 And Isaac soweth in that land, and findeth in that year a hundredfold, and Jehovah blesseth him;

イサク彼地に種播て其年に百倍を獲たりヱホバ彼を祝みたまふ

13 and the man is great, and goeth on, going on and becoming great, till that he hath been very great,

其人大になりゆきて進て盛になり遂に甚だ大なる者となれり

14 and he hath possession of a flock, and possession of a herd, and an abundant service; and the Philistines envy him,

即ち羊と牛と僕從を多く有しかばペリシテ人彼を嫉みたり

15 and all the wells which his father's servants digged in the days of Abraham his father, the Philistines have stopped them, and fill them with dust.

其父アブラハムの世に其父の僕從が掘たる諸の井はペリシテ人之をふさぎて土を之にみてたり

16 And Abimelech saith unto Isaac, 'Go from us; for thou hast become much mightier than we;'

茲にアビメレク、イサクに言けるは汝は大に我等よりも強大ければ我等をはなれて去れと

17 and Isaac goeth from thence, and encampeth in the valley of Gerar, and dwelleth there;

イサク乃ち彼處をさりてゲラルの谷に天幕を張て其處に住り

18 and Isaac turneth back, and diggeth the wells of water which they digged in the days of Abraham his father, which the Philistines do stop after the death of Abraham, and he calleth to them names according to the names which his father called them.

其父アブラハムの世に掘たる水井をイサク茲に復び鑿り其はアブラハムの死たる後ペリシテ人之を塞ぎたればなり斯してイサク其父が之に名けたる名をもて其名となせり

19 And Isaac's servants dig in the valley, and find there a well of living water,

イサクの僕谷に掘て其處に泉の湧出る井を得たり

20 and shepherds of Gerar strive with shepherds of Isaac, saying, 'The water [is] ours;' and he calleth the name of the well 'Strife,' because they have striven habitually with him;

ゲラルの牧者此水は我儕の所屬なりといひてイサクの僕と爭ひければイサク其井の名をエセク(競爭)と名けたり彼等が己と之を競爭たるによりてなり

21 and they dig another well, and they strive also for it, and he calleth its name 'Hatred.'

是に於て又他の井を鑿しが彼等是をも爭ひければ其名をシテナ(敵)となづけたり

22 And he removeth from thence, and diggeth another well, and they have not striven for it, and he calleth its name Enlargements, and saith, 'For — now hath Jehovah given enlargement to us, and we have been fruitful in the land.'

イサク乃ち彼處より遷りて他の井を鑿けるが彼等之をあらそはざりければ其名をレホボテ(廣塲)と名けて言けるは今ヱホバ我等の處所を廣くしたまへり我等此地を繁衍ん

23 And he goeth up from thence [to] Beer-Sheba,

斯て彼其處よりベエルシバにのぼりしが

24 and Jehovah appeareth unto him during that night, and saith, 'I [am] the God of Abraham thy father, fear not, for I [am] with thee, and have blessed thee, and have multiplied thy seed, because of Abraham My servant;'

其夜ヱホバ彼にあらはれて言たまひけるは我は汝の父アブラハムの神なり懼るるなかれ我汝と偕にありて汝を祝み我僕アブラハムのために汝の子孫を増んと

25 and he buildeth there an altar, and preacheth in the name of Jehovah, and stretcheth out there his tent, and there Isaac's servants dig a well.

是に於て彼處に壇を築きてヱホバの名を龥び天幕を彼處に張り彼處にてイサクの僕井を鑿り

26 And Abimelech hath gone unto him from Gerar, and Ahuzzath his friend, and Phichol head of his host;

茲にアビメレク其友アホザテ及び其軍勢の長ピコルと共にゲラルよりイサクの許に來りければ

27 and Isaac saith unto them, 'Wherefore have ye come unto me, and ye have hated me, and ye send me away from you?'

イサク彼等に言ふ汝等は我を惡み我をして汝等をはなれて去らしめたるなるに何ぞ我許に來るや

28 And they say, 'We have certainly seen that Jehovah hath been with thee, and we say, 'Let there be, we pray thee, an oath between us, between us and thee, and let us make a covenant with thee;

彼等いひけるは我等確然にヱホバが汝と偕にあるを見たれば我等の間即ち我等と汝の間に誓詞を立て汝と契約を結ばんと謂へり

29 do not evil with us, as we have not touched thee, and as we have only done good with thee, and send thee away in peace; thou [art] now blessed of Jehovah.'

汝我等に惡事をなすなかれ其は我等は汝を害せず只善事のみを汝になし且汝を安然に去しめたればなり汝はヱホバの祝みたまふ者なり

30 And he maketh for them a banquet, and they eat and drink,

イサク乃ち彼等のために酒宴を設けたれば彼等食ひ且飮り

31 and rise early in the morning, and swear one to another, and Isaac sendeth them away, and they go from him in peace.

斯て朝夙に起て互に相誓へり而してイサク彼等を去しめたれば彼等イサクをはなれて安然にかへりぬ

32 And it cometh to pass during that day that Isaac's servants come and declare to him concerning the circumstances of the well which they have digged, and say to him, 'We have found water;'

其日イサクの僕來りて其ほりたる井につきて之に告て我等水を得たりといへり

33 and he calleth it Shebah, [oath, ] therefore the name of the city [is] Beer-Sheba, [well of the oath, ] unto this day.

即ち之をシバとなづく此故に其邑の名は今日までベエルシバ(誓詞の井)といふ

34 And Esau is a son of forty years, and he taketh a wife, Judith, daughter of Beeri the Hittite, and Bashemath, daughter of Elon the Hittite,

エサウ四十歳の時ヘテ人の女ユデテとヘテ人エロンの女バスマテを妻に娶り

35 and they are a bitterness of spirit to Isaac and to Rebekah.

彼等はイサクとリベカの心の愁煩となれり
