サムエル記Ⅰ 17
1 爰にペリシテ人其軍を集めて戰はんとしユダに屬するシヨコにあつまりシヨコとアゼカの間なるバスダミムに陣をとる
Now the Philistines gathering together their troops to battle, assembled at Socho of Juda, and camped between Socho and Azeca in the borders of Dommim.
2 サウルとイスラエルの人々集まりてエラの谷に陣をとりペリシテ人にむかひて軍の陣列をたつ
And Saul and the children of Israel being gathered together came to the valley of Terebinth, and they set the army in array to fight against the Philistines.
3 ペリシテ人は此方の山にたちイスラエルは彼方の山にたつ谷は其あひだにあり
And the Philistines stood on a mountain on the one side, and Israel stood on a mountain on the other side: and there was a valley between them.
4 時にペリシテ人の陣よりガテのゴリアテと名くる挑戰者いできたる其身の長六キユビト半
And there went out a man baseborn from the camp of the Philistines named Goliath, of Geth, whose height was six cubits and a span:
5 首に銅の盔を戴き身に鱗綴の鎧甲を着たり其よろひの銅のおもさは五千シケルなり
And he had a helmet of brass upon his head, and he was clothed with a coat of mail with scales, and the weight of his coat of mail was five thousand sicles of brass:
6 また脛には銅の脛當を着け肩の間に銅の矛戟を負ふ
And he had greaves of brass on his legs, and a buckler of brass covered his shoulders.
7 其槍の柄は機の梁のごとく槍の鋒刃の鐵は六百シケルなり楯を執る者其前にゆく
And the staff of his spear was like a weaver’s beam, and the head of his spear weighed six hundred sicles of iron: and his armourbearer went before him.
8 ゴリアテ立てイスラエルの諸行伍によばはり云けるは汝らはなんぞ陣列をなして出きたるや我はペリシテ人にして汝らはサウルの臣下にあらずや汝ら一人をえらみて我ところにくだせ
And standing he cried out to the bands of Israel, and said to them: Why are you come out prepared to fight? am not I a Philistine, and you the servants of Saul? Choose out a man of you, and let him come down and fight hand to hand.
9 其人もし我とたたかひて我をころすことをえば我ら汝らの臣僕とならんされど若し我かちてこれを殺さば汝ら我らの僕となりて我らに事ふ可し
If he be able to fight with me, and kill me, we will be servants to you: but if I prevail against him, and kill him, you shall be servants, and shall serve us.
10 かくて此ペリシテ人いひけるは我今日イスラエルの諸行伍を挑む一人をいだして我と戰はしめよと
And the Philistine said: I have defied the bands of Israel this day: Give me a man, and let him fight with me hand to hand.
11 サウルおよびイスラエルみなペリシテ人のこの言を聞き驚きて大に懼れたり
And Saul and all the Israelites hearing these words of the Philistine were dismayed, and greatly afraid.
12 抑ダビデはかのベテレヘムユダのエフラタ人ヱサイとなづくる者の子なり此人八人の子ありしがサウルの世には年邁みてすでに老たり
Now David was the son of that Ephrathite of Bethlehem Juda before mentioned, whose name was Isai, who had eight sons, and was an old man in the days of Saul, and of great age among men.
13 ヱサイの長子三人ゆきてサウルにしたがひて戰爭にいづ其戰にいでし三人の子の名は長をエリアブといひ次をアビナダブといひ第三をシヤンマといふ
And his three eldest sons followed Saul to the battle: and the names of his three sons that went to the battle, were Eliab the firstborn, and the second Abinadab, and the third Samma.
14 ダビデは季子にして其兄三人はサウルにしたがへり
But David was the youngest. So the three eldest having followed Saul,
15 ダビデはサウルに往來してベテレヘムにて其父の羊を牧ふ
David went, and returned from Saul, to feed his father’s flock at Bethlehem.
16 彼ペリシテ人四十日のあひだ朝夕近づきて前にたてり
Now the Philistine came out morning and evening, and presented himself forty days.
17 時にヱサイ其子ダビデにいひけるは今汝の兄のために此烘麥一斗と此十のパンを取りて陣營にをる兄のところにいそぎゆけ
And Isai said to David his son: Take for thy brethren an ephi of frumenty, and these ten loaves, and run to the camp to thy brethren.
18 また此十の乾酪をとりて其千夫の長におくり兄の安否を視て其返事をもちきたれと
And carry these ten little cheeses to the tribune: and go see thy brethren, if they are well: and learn with whom they are placed.
19 サウルと彼等およびイスラエルの人は皆ペリシテ人とたたかひてエラの谷にありき
But Saul, and they, and all the children of Israel were in the valley of Terebinth fighting against the Philistines.
20 ダビデ朝夙くおきて羊をひとりの牧者にあづけヱサイの命ぜしごとく携へゆきて車營にいたるに軍勢いでて行伍をなし鯨波をあげたり
David therefore arose in the morning, and gave the charge of the flock to the keeper: and went away loaded as Isai had commanded him. And he came to the place of Magala, and to the army, which was going out to fight, and shouted for the battle.
21 しかしてイスラエルとペリシテ人陣列をたてて行伍を行伍に相むかはせたり
For Israel had put themselves in array, and the Philistines who stood against them were prepared.
22 ダビデ其荷をおろして荷をまもる者の手にわたし行伍の中にはせゆきて兄の安否を問ふ
And David leaving the vessels which he had brought, under the care of the keeper of the baggage, ran to the place of the battle and asked if all things went well with his brethren.
23 ダビデ彼等と倶に語れる時視よペリシテ人の行伍よりガテのペリシテのゴリアテとなづくる彼の挑戰者のぼりきたり前のことばのごとく言しかばダビデ之を聞けり
And as he talked with them, that baseborn man whose name was Goliath, the Philistine, of Geth, shewed himself coming up from the camp of the Philistines: and he spoke according to the same words, and David heard them.
24 イスラエルの人其人を見て皆逃て之をはなれ痛く懼れたり
And all the Israelites when they saw the man, fled from his face, fearing him exceedingly.
25 イスラエルの人いひけるは汝らこののぼり來る人を見しや誠にイスラエルを挑んとて上りきたるなり彼をころす人は王大なる富を以てこれをとまし其女子をこれにあたへて其父の家にはイスラエルの中にて租税をまぬかれしめん
And some one of Israel said: Have you seen this man that is come up, for he is come up to defy Israel. And the man that shall slay him, the king will enrich with great riches, and will give him his daughter, and will make his father’s house free from tribute in Israel.
26 ダビデ其傍にたてる人々にかたりていひけるは此ペリシテ人をころしイスラエルの耻辱を雪ぐ人には如何なることをなすや此割禮なきペリシテ人は誰なればか活る神の軍を搦む
And David spoke to the men that stood by him, saying: What shall be given to the man that shall kill this Philistine, and shall take away the reproach from Israel? for who is this uncircumcised Philistine, that he should defy the armies of the living God?
27 民まへのごとく答へていひけるはかれを殺す人には斯のごとくせらるべしと
And the people answered him the same words saying: These things shall be given to the man that shall slay him.
28 兄エリアブ、ダビデが人々とかたるを聞しかばエリアブ、ダビデにむかひて怒りを發しいひけるは汝なにのために此に下りしや彼の野にあるわづかの羊を誰にあづけしや我汝の傲慢と惡き心を知る其は汝戰爭を見んとて下ればなり
Now when Eliab his eldest brother heard this, when he was speaking with others, he was angry with David, and said: Why earnest thou hither? and why didst thou leave those few sheep in the desert? I know thy pride, and the wickedness of thy heart: that thou art come down to see the battle.
29 ダビデいひけるは我今なにをなしたるや只一言にあらずやと
And David said: What have I done? is there not cause to speak?
30 又ふりむきて他の人にむかひ前のごとく語れるに民まへのごとく答たり
And he turned a little aside from him to another: and said the same word. And the people answered him as before.
31 人々ダビデが語れる言をききてこれをサウルのまへにつげければサウルかれを召す
And the words which David spoke were heard, and were rehearsed before Saul.
32 ダビデ、サウルにいひけるは人々かれがために氣をおとすべからず僕ゆきてかのペリシテ人とたたかはん
And when he was brought to him, he said to him: Let not any man’s heart be dismayed in him: I thy servant will go, and will fight against the Philistine.
33 サウル、ダビデにいひけるは汝はかのペリシテ人をむかへてたたかふに勝ず其は汝は少年なるにかれは若き時よりの戰士なればなり
And Saul said to David: Thou art not able to withstand this Philistine, nor to fight against him: for thou art but a boy, but he is a warrior from his youth.
34 ダビデ、サウルにいひけるは僕さきに父の羊を牧るに獅子と熊と來りて其群の羔を取たれば
And David said to Saul: Thy servant kept his father’s sheep, and there came a lion, or a bear, and took a ram out of the midst of the flock:
35 其後をおひて之を搏ち羔を其口より援ひいだせりしかして其獣我に猛りかかりたれば其鬚をとらへてこれを撃ちころせり
And I pursued after them, and struck them, and delivered it out of their mouth: and they rose up against me, and I caught them by the throat, and I strangled and killed them.
36 僕は旣に獅子と熊とを殺せり此割禮なきペリシテ人活る神の軍をいどみたれば亦かの獣の一のごとくなるべし
For I thy servant have killed both a lion and a bear: and this uncircumcised Philistine shall be also as one of them. I will go now, and take away the reproach of the people: for who is this uncircumcised Philistine, who hath dared to curse the army of the living God?
37 ダビデまたいひけるはヱホバ我を獅子の爪と熊の爪より援ひいだしたまひたれば此ペリシテ人の手よりも援ひいだしたまはんとサウル、ダビデにいふ往けねがはくはヱホバ汝とともにいませ
And David said: The Lord who delivered me out of the paw of the lion, and out of the paw of the bear, he will deliver me out of the hand of this Philistine. And Saul said to David: Go, and the Lord be with thee.
38 是においてサウルおのれの戎衣をダビデに衣せ銅の盔を其首にかむらせ亦鱗綴の鎧をこれにきせたり
And Saul clothed David with his garments, and put a helmet of brass upon his head, and armed him with a coat of mail.
39 ダビデ戎衣のうへに劍を佩て往かんことを試む未だ驗せしことなければなりしかしてダビデ、サウルにいひけるは我いまだ驗せしことなければ是を衣ては往くあたはずと
And David having girded his sword upon his armour, began to try if he could walk in armour: for he was not accustomed to it. And David said to Saul: I cannot go thus, for I am not used to it. And he laid them off,
40 ダビデこれを脱ぎすて手に杖をとり谿間より五の光滑なる石を拾ひて之を其持てる牧羊者の具なる袋に容れ手に投石索を執りて彼ペリシテ人にちかづく
And he took his staff, which he had always in his hands: and chose him five smooth stones out of the brook, and put them into the shepherd’s scrip, which he had with him, and he took a sling in his hand, and went forth against the Philistine.
41 ペリシテ人進みきてダビデに近づけり楯を執るもの其まへにあり
And the Philistine came on, and drew nigh against David, and his armourbearer before him.
42 ペリシテ人環視てダビデを見て之を藐視る其は少くして赤くまた美しき貌なればなり
And when the Philistine looked, and beheld David, he despised him. For he was a young man, ruddy, and of a comely countenance.
43 ペリシテ人ダビデにいひけるは汝杖を持てきたる我豈犬ならんやとペリシテ人其神の名をもってダビデを呪詛ふ
And the Philistine said to David: Am I a dog, that thou comest to me with a staff? And the Philistine cursed David by his gods.
44 しかしてペリシテ人ダビデにいひけるは我がもとに來れ汝の肉を空の鳥と野の獣にあたへんと
And he said to David: Come to me, and I will give thy flesh to the birds of the air, and to the beasts of the earth.
45 ダビデ、ペリシテ人にいひけるは汝は劍と槍と矛戟をもて我にきたる然ど我は萬軍のヱホバの名すなはち汝が搦みたるイスラエルの軍の神の名をもて汝にゆく
And David said to the Philistine: Thou comest to me with a sword, and with a spear, and with a shield: but I come to thee in the name of the Lord of hosts, the God of the armies of Israel, which thou hast defied.
46 今日ヱホバ汝をわが手に付したまはんわれ汝をうちて汝の首級を取りペリシテ人の軍勢の尸體を今日空の鳥と地の野獣にあたへて全地をしてイスラエルに神あることをしらしめん
This day, and the Lord will deliver thee into my hand, and I will slay thee, and take away thy head from thee: and I will give the carcasses of the army of the Philistines this day to the birds of the air, and to the beasts of the earth: that all the earth may know that there is a God in Israel.
47 且又この群衆みなヱホバは救ふに劍と槍を用ひたまはざることをしるにいたらん其は戰はヱホバによれば汝らを我らの手にわたしたまはんと
And all this assembly shall know, that the Lord saveth not with sword and spear: for it is his battle, and he will deliver you into our hands.
48 ペリシテ人すなはち立あがり進みちかづきてダビデをむかへしかばダビデいそぎ陣にはせゆきてペリシテ人をむかふ
And when the Philistine arose and was coming, and drew nigh to meet David, David made haste, and ran to the fight to meet the Philistine.
49 ダビデ手を嚢にいれて其中より一つの石をとり投てペリシテ人の顙を撃ければ石其顙に突きいりて俯伏に地にたふれたり
And he put his hand into his scrip, and took a stone, and cast it with the sling, and fetching it about struck the Philistine in the forehead: and the stone was fixed in his forehead, and he fell on his face upon the earth.
50 かくダビデ投石索と石をもてペリシテ人にかちペリシテ人をうちて之をころせり然どダビデの手には劍なかりしかば
And David prevailed over the Philistine, with a sling and a stone, and he struck, and slew the Philistine. And as David had no sword in his hand,
51 ダビデはしりてペリシテ人の上にのり其劍を取て之を鞘より抜きはなしこれをもて彼をころし其首級を斬りたり爰にペリシテの人々其勇士の死るを見てにげしかば
He ran, and stood over the Philistine, and took his sword, and drew it out of the sheath, and slew him, and cut off his head. And the Philistines seeing that their champion was dead, fled away.
52 イスラエルとユダの人おこり喊呼をあげてペリシテ人をおひガテの入口およびエクロンの門にいたるペリシテ人の負傷人シヤライムの路に仆れてガテおよびエクロンにおよぶ
And the men of Israel and Juda rising up shouted, and pursued after the Philistines till they came to the valley and to the gates of Accaron, and there fell many wounded of the Philistines in the way of Saraim, and as far as Geth, and as far as Accaron.
53 イスラエルの子孫ペリシテ人をおふてかへり其陣を掠む
And the children of Israel returning, after they had pursued the Philistines, fell upon their camp.
54 ダビデかのペリシテ人の首を取りて之をエルサレムにたづさへきたりしが其甲冑はおのれの天幕におけり
And David taking the head of the Philistine brought it to Jerusalem: but his armour he put in his tent.
55 サウル、ダビデがペリシテ人にむかひて出るを見て軍長アブネルにいひけるはアブネル此少者はたれの子なるやアブネルいひけるは王汝の霊魂は生くわれしらざるなり
Now at the time that Saul saw David going out against the Philistines, he said to Abner the captain of the army: Of what family is this young man descended, Abner? And Abner said: As thy soul liveth, O king, I know not.
56 王いひけるはこの少年はたれの子なるかを尋ねよ
And the king said: Inquire thou, whose son this man is.
57 ダビデかのペリシテ人を殺してかへれる時アブネルこれをひきて其ペリシテ人の首級を手にもてるままサウルのまへにつれゆきければ
And when David was returned, after the Philistine was slain, Abner took him, and brought him in before Saul, with the head of the Philistine in his hand.
58 サウルかれにいひけるは若き人よ汝はたれの子なるやダビデこたへけるは汝の僕ベテレヘム人ヱサイの子なり
And Saul said to him: Young man, of what family art thou? And David said: I am the son of thy servant Isai the Bethlehemite.
