サムエル記Ⅰ 10
1 サムエルすなはち膏の瓶をとりてサウルの頭に沃ぎ口接して曰けるはヱホバ汝をたてて其產業の長となしたまふにあらずや
Then took Samuel a flask of oil, and poured out upon his head, and kissed him, —and said—Is it not, that Yahweh hath anointed thee over his inheritance, as leader?
2 汝今日我をはなれて去りゆく時ベニヤミンの境のゼルザにあるラケルの墓のかたはらにて二人の人にあふべしかれら汝にいはん汝がたづねにゆきし驢馬は見あたりぬ汝の父驢馬のことをすてて汝らのことをおもひわづらひわが子の事をいかがすべきやといへりと
When thou departest, to-day, from me, then shalt thou find two men by the grave of Rachel, within the boundary of Benjamin, in Zelzah, —and they will say unto thee, The asses are found, which thou wentest to seek, and lo! thy father hath abandoned caring for the asses, and is concerned for you, saying, What shall I do for my son?
3 其處より汝尚すすみてタボルの橡の樹のところにいたらんに彼處にてベテルにのぼり神にまうでんとする三人の者汝にあはん一人は三頭の山羊羔を携へ一人は三團のパンをたづさへ一人は一嚢の酒をたづさふ
Then shalt thou pass on quickly from thence onwards, and come as far as the oak of Tabor, and there shall find thee there, three men going up unto God, at Bethel, —one, carrying three kids, and, another, carrying three cakes of bread, and, another, carrying a skin of wine;
4 かれら汝に安否をとひ二團のパンを汝にあたへん汝之を其手よりうくべし
then will they ask thee, of thy welfare, —and give thee two cakes of bread, which thou shalt receive at their hand.
5 其の後汝神のギベアにいたらん其處にペリシテ人の代官あり汝彼處にゆきて邑にいるとき一群の預言者の瑟と鼗と笛と琴を前に執らせて預言しつつ崇邱をくだるにあはん
After that, shalt thou come unto the hill of God, where is the garrison of the Philistines, —and it shall be, as thou comest in thither into the city, thou shalt light upon a band of prophets, coming down from the high place, and, before them, a harp, and a timbrel, and a flute, and a lyre, they having been moved to prophesy.
6 其の時神のみたま汝にのぞみて汝かれらとともに預言し變りて新しき人とならん
Then will come suddenly upon thee, the Spirit of Yahweh, and thou shalt be moved to prophesy with them, —and shalt be changed into another man.
7 是らの徴汝の身におこらば手のあたるにまかせて事を爲すべし神汝とともにいませばなり
And it shall be, when these signs shall come unto thee, then act thou for thyself, as thou shalt find occasion, for, God, is with thee.
8 汝我にさきだちてギルガルにくだるべし我汝の許にくだりて燔祭を供へ酬恩祭を献げんわが汝のもとに至り汝の爲すべきことを示すまで汝七日のあひだ待つべし
And thou shalt go down before me to Gilgal, for lo! I am coming down unto thee, to offer up ascending-offerings, to sacrifice peace-offerings, —seven days, shalt thou tarry, until I come unto thee, then will I let thee know what thou shalt do.
9 サケウル背をかへしてサムエルを離れし時神之に新しき心をあたへたまふしかして此しるし皆其日におこれり
And so it was, that, when he turned away to depart from Samuel, God gave him another heart, —and all these signs came to pass that day.
10 ふたり彼處にゆきてギベアにいたれるときみよ一群の預言者これにあふしかして神の霊サウルにのぞみてサウルかれらの中にありて預言せり
And, when they came thither to the hill, lo! a band of prophets coming to meet him, —then came suddenly upon him, the Spirit of God, and he was moved to prophesy in their midst.
11 素よりサウルを識る人々サウルの預言者と偕に預言するを見て互ひにいひけるはキシの子サウル今何事にあふやサウルも預言者の中にあるやと
And it came to pass, that, all who knew him aforetime, looked, and lo! with the prophets, he did prophesy. So the people said, one to another—What, now, hath befallen the son of Kish? Is, even Saul, among the prophets?
12 其處の人ひとり答へて彼等の父は誰ぞやといふ是故にサウルも預言者の中にあるやといふは諺となれり
Then responded one of that place, and said, But who is, their father? For this cause, it became a proverb, Is, even Saul, among the prophets?
13 サウル預言を終て崇邱にいたるに
And, when he had made an end of prophesying, he came to the high place.
14 サウルの叔父サウルと僕にいひけるは汝ら何處にゆきしやサウルいひけるは驢馬を尋ねに出しが何處にもをらざるを見てサムエルの許にいたれり
Then said Saul’s uncle unto him, and unto his young man—Whither have ye been? And he said, To seek the asses, and, when they were nowhere, to be seen, we came unto Samuel.
15 サウルの叔父いひけるはサムエルは汝に何をいひしか請ふ我につげよ
And Saul’s uncle said, —Do tell me, I pray thee, what Samuel said to you.
16 サウル叔父にいひけるは明かに驢馬の見あたりしを告げたりと然れどもサムエルが言る國王の事はこれにつげざりき
And Saul said unto his uncle, He, told, us that the asses were found, —but, as to the matter of the kingdom, he told him not what Samuel had said.
17 サムエル民をミヅパにてヱホバのまへに集め
Then Samuel called out the people, unto Yahweh, at Mizpah,
18 イスラエルの子孫にいひけるはイスラエルの神ヱホバ斯くいひたまふ我イスラエルをみちびきてエジプトより出し汝らをエジプト人の手および凡て汝らを虐遇る國人の手より救ひいだせり
and said unto the sons of Israel—Thus, saith Yahweh, God of Israel: I myself, brought up Israel, out of Egypt, —and rescued you out of the hand of the Egyptians, and out of the hand of all the kingdoms that distressed you.
19 然るに汝らおのれを患難と難苦のうちより救ひいだしたる汝らの神を棄て且否われらに王をたてよといへり是故にいま汝等の支派と群にしたがひてヱホバのまへに出よ
Yet, ye, to-day, have rejected your God, who, himself, hath been giving you salvation from all your calamities and your distresses, and ye have said to him: A king, shalt thou set over us, —Now, therefore, present yourselves before Yahweh, by your tribes, and by your thousands.
20 サムエル、イスラエルの諸の支派を呼よせし時ベニヤミンの支派籤にあたりぬ
And, when Samuel had brought near all the tribes of Israel, then was taken the tribe of Benjamin.
21 またベニヤミンの支派を其族のかずにしたがひて呼よせしときマテリの族籤にあたりキシの子サウル籤にあたれり人々かれを尋ねしかども見出ざれば
And, when he had brought near the tribe of Benjamin, by their families, then was taken the family of Matri, —and, when he had brought near the family of Matri, man by man, then was taken Saul the son of Kish; so they sought him, but he was not to be found.
22 またヱホバに其人は此に來るや否やを問しにヱホバ答たまはく視よ彼は行李のあひだにかくると
Then asked they again of Yahweh, Hath there yet to come in hither a man? And Yahweh said, Lo! he, hath hid himself among the stores.
23 人々はせゆきて彼を其處よりつれきたれり彼民の中にたつに肩より以上民の何の人よりも高かりき
So they ran, and fetched him thence, and, when he presented himself in the midst of the people, then was he [seen to be] taller than any of the people, from his shoulders and upwards.
24 サムエル民にいひけるは汝らヱホバの擇みたまひし人を見るか民のうちに是人の如き者とし民みなよばはりいひけるは願くは王いのちながかれ
And Samuel said unto all the people—Have ye seen him whom Yahweh hath chosen, that there is none like him, among all the people? And all the people shouted, and said—Let the king live!
25 時にサムエル王國の典章を民にしめして之を書にしるし之をヱホバのまへに蔵めたりしかしてサムエル民をことごとく其家にかへらしむ
Then Samuel declared unto the people the manner of the kingdom, and wrote it in a scroll, and laid it up before Yahweh. And Samuel sent away all the people, every man to his own house.
26 サウルもまたギベアの家にかへるに神に心を感ぜられたる勇士等これとともにゆけり
Yea, even Saul, went to his own house, at Gibeah, —and the valiant men whose heart God had moved went with him.
27 然れども邪なる人々は彼人いかで我らを救はんやといひて之を蔑視り之に禮物をおくらざりしかどサウルは唖のごとくせり
But, abandoned men, said—How can this one save us? So they treated him with contempt, and brought him no present, —but he was as one that was deaf.
