< Jeremiah 41 >

1 And it cometh to pass, in the seventh month, come hath Ishmael son of Nethaniah, son of Elishama, of the seed royal, and of the chiefs of the king, and ten men with him, unto Gedaliah son of Ahikam, to Mizpah, and they eat there bread together in Mizpah.
七月ごろ王の血統なるエリシヤマの子ネタニヤの子イシマエル王の十人の牧伯等とともにミヅパにゆきてアヒカムの子ゲダリヤにいたりミヅパにて偕に食をなせしが
2 And Ishmael son of Nethaniah riseth, and the ten men who have been with him, and they smite Gedaliah son of Ahikam, son of Shaphan, with the sword, and he putteth him to death whom the king of Babylon hath appointed over the land.
ネタニヤの子イシマエルおよび偕にをりし十人の者起上りバビロンの王がこの地の有司となせしシヤパンの子アヒカムの子なるゲダリヤを刀にて殺せり
3 And all the Jews who have been with him, with Gedaliah, in Mizpah, and the Chaldeans who have been found there — the men of war — hath Ishmael smitten.
イシマエルまたミヅパにゲダリヤと偕にをりし諸のユダヤ人と彼處にをりしカルデヤ人の兵卒を殺したり
4 And it cometh to pass, on the second day of the putting of Gedaliah to death, (and no one hath known, )
彼がゲダリヤを殺してより二日の後いまだ誰も之を知ざりし時
5 that men come in from Shechem, from Shiloh, and from Samaria — eighty men — with shaven beards, and rent garments, and cutting themselves, and an offering and frankincense in their hand, to bring in to the house of Jehovah.
ある人八十人その鬚を薙り衣を裂き身に傷つけ手に素祭の物と香を携へてシケム、シロ、サマリヤよりきたりてヱホバの室にいたらんとせしかば
6 And Ishmael son of Nethaniah goeth forth to meet them, from Mizpah, going on and weeping, and it cometh to pass, at meeting them, that he saith unto them, 'Come in unto Gedaliah son of Ahikam.'
ネタニヤの子イシマエル、ミヅパよりいでて哭きつつ行て彼らを迎へ彼等に逢てアヒカムの子ゲダリヤの許に來れといへり
7 And it cometh to pass, at their coming in unto the midst of the city, that Ishmael son of Nethaniah doth slaughter them, at the midst of the pit, he and the men who [are] with him.
而して彼ら邑の中に入しときネタニヤの子イシマエル己と偕にある人々とともに彼らを殺してその屍を阱に投いれたり
8 And ten men have been found among them, and they say unto Ishmael, 'Do not put us to death, for we have things hidden in the field — wheat, and barley, and oil, and honey.' And he forbeareth, and hath not put them to death in the midst of their brethren.
但しその中の十人イシマエルにむかひ我らは田地に小麥 麰麥油および蜜を藏し有り我らをころすなかれと言たれば彼らをその兄弟と偕に殺さずして已ぬ
9 And the pit whither Ishmael hath cast all the carcases of the men whom he hath smitten along with Gedaliah, is that which the king Asa made because of Baasha king of Israel — it hath Ishmael son of Nethaniah filled with the pierced.
イシマエルがゲダリヤの名をもて殺せし人の屍を投入れし阱はアサ王がイスラエルの王バアシヤを怖れて鑿し阱なりネタニヤの子イシマエルその殺せし人々を之に充せり
10 And Ishmael taketh captive all the remnant of the people who [are] in Mizpah, the daughters of the king, and all the people who are left in Mizpah, whom Nebuzar-Adan, chief of the executioners, hath committed [to] Gedaliah son of Ahikam, and Ishmael son of Nethaniah taketh them captive, and goeth to pass over unto the sons of Ammon.
イシマエルはミヅパに遺りをる諸の民即ち王の諸女と侍衞の長ネブザラダンがアヒカムの子ゲダリヤに交付しところのミヅパに遺れる諸の民とを擄にせりネタニヤの子イシマエルすなはち彼らを擄にしアンモン人に往んとて去れり
11 And hear doth Johanan son of Kareah, and all the heads of the forces that [are] with him, of all the evil that Ishmael son of Nethaniah hath done,
カレヤの子ヨハナンおよび彼と偕に在る軍勢の長たちネタニヤの子イシマエルの爲し諸の惡事を聞ければ
12 and they take all the men, and go to fight with Ishmael son of Nethaniah, and they find him at the great waters that [are] in Gibeon.
その衆卒を率てネタニヤの子イシマエルと戰はんとて出でギベオンの池の旁にて彼に遇ふ
13 And it cometh to pass, when all the people who [are] with Ishmael see Johanan son of Kareah, and all the heads of the forces who [are] with him, that they rejoice.
イシマエルと偕に在る人々はカレヤの子ヨハナンおよび彼とともに在る軍勢の長たちを見て欣べり
14 And all the people whom Ishmael hath taken captive from Mizpah turn round, yea, they turn back, and go unto Johanan son of Kareah.
是をもてイシマエルがミヅパより擄へきたりし所の人々身をめぐらしてカレヤの子ヨハナンの許にゆけり
15 And Ishmael son of Nethaniah hath escaped, with eight men, from the presence of Johanan, and he goeth unto the sons of Ammon.
ネタニヤの子イシマエルは八人の者と偕にヨハナンを避け逃てアンモン人に往り
16 And Johanan son of Kareah, and all the heads of the forces who [are] with him, take all the remnant of the people whom he hath brought back from Ishmael son of Nethaniah, from Mizpah — after he had smitten Gedaliah son of Ahikam — mighty ones, men of war, and women, and infants, and eunuchs, whom he had brought back from Gibeon,
カレヤの子ヨハナンおよび彼とともにある軍勢の長等はネタニヤの子イシマエルがアヒカムの子ゲダリヤを殺してミヅパより擄へゆけるところの彼遺れる民すなはち兵卒婦人兒女寺人等を其手より取りかへして之をギベオンより携かへりしが
17 and they go and abide in the habitations of Chimham, that [are] near Beth-Lehem, to go to enter Egypt,
進てエジプトにいたらんとてベツレヘムの近傍にあるキムハムの住處に往て留れり
18 from the presence of the Chaldeans, for they have been afraid of them, for Ishmael son of Nethaniah had smitten Gedaliah son of Ahikam, whom the king of Babylon had appointed over the land.
こはネタニヤの子イシマエルがバビロンの王の此地の有司となしたるアヒカムの子ゲダリヤを殺せしによりカルデヤ人を懼たればなり
