サムエル記Ⅰ 27
1 ダビデ心の中にいひけるは是のごとくば我早晩サウルの手にほろびん速にペリシテ人の地にのがるるにまさることあらず然らばサウルかさねて我をイスラエルの四方の境にたづぬることをやめて我かれの手をのがれんと
And David saith unto his heart, 'Now am I consumed one day by the hand of Saul; there is nothing for me better than that I diligently escape unto the land of the Philistines, and Saul hath been despairing of me — of seeking me any more in all the border of Israel, and I have escaped out of his hand.'
2 ダビデたちておのれとともな六百人のものとともにわたりてガテの王マオクの子アキシにいたる
And David riseth, and passeth over, he and six hundred men who [are] with him, unto Achish son of Maoch king of Gath;
3 ダビデと其從者ガテにてアキシとともに住ておのおの其家族とともにをるダビデはその二人の妻すなはちヱズレル人アヒノアムとカルメル人ナバルの妻なりしアビガルとともにあり
and David dwelleth with Achish in Gath, he and his men, each one with his household, [even] David and his two wives, Ahinoam the Jezreelitess, and Abigail wife of Nabal the Carmelitess.
4 ダビデのガテににげしことサウルにきこえければサウルかさねてかれをたづねざりき
And it is declared to Saul that David hath fled to Gath, and he hath not added any more to seek him.
5 ここにダビデ、アキシにいひけるは我もし爾のまへに恩を得たるならばねがはくは郷里にある邑のうちにて一のところを我にあたへて其處にすむことを得さしめよ僕なんぞ爾とともに王城にすむべけんやと
And David saith unto Achish, 'If, I pray thee, I have found grace in thine eyes, they give to me a place in one of the cities of the field, and I dwell there, yea, why doth thy servant dwell in the royal city with thee?'
6 アキシ其日チクラグをかれにあたへたり是故にヂクラグは今日にいたるまでユダの王に屬す
And Achish giveth to him in that day Ziklag, therefore hath Ziklag been to the kings of Judah till this day.
7 タビデのペリシテ人の國にをりし日數は一年と四箇月なりき
And the number of the days which David hath dwelt in the field of the Philistines [is] days and four months;
8 ダビデ其從者と共にのぼりゲシユル人ゲゼリ人アマレク人を襲ふたり昔より是等はシユルにいたる地にすみてエジプトの地にまでおよべり
and David goeth up and his men, and they push unto the Geshurite, and the Gerizite, and the Amalekite, (for they are inhabitants of the land from of old), as thou comest in to Shur and unto the land of Egypt,
9 ダビデ其地をうちて男をも女をも生し存さず羊と牛と駱駝と衣服をとりて還りてアキシに至る
and David hath smitten the land, and doth not keep alive man and woman, and hath taken sheep, and oxen, and asses, and camels, and garments, and turneth back, and cometh in unto Achish.
10 アキシいひけるは爾ら今日何地を襲ひしやダビデいひけるはユダの南とヱラメルの南とケニ人の南ををかせりと
And Achish saith, 'Whither have ye pushed to-day?' and David saith, 'Against the south of Judah, and against the south of the Jerahmeelite, and unto the south of the Kenite.'
11 ダビデ男も女も生存らしめずして一人をもガテにひきゆかざりき其はダビデ恐くは彼らダビデかくなせりといひて我儕の事を告んといひたればなりダビデ、ペリシテ人の地にすめるあひだは其なすところ常にかくのごとくなりき
Neither man nor woman doth David keep alive, to bring in [word] to Gath, saying, 'Lest they declare [it] against us, saying, Thus hath David done, and thus [is] his custom all the days that he hath dwelt in the fields of the Philistines.'
12 アキシ、ダビデを信じていひけるは彼は其民イスラエルをして全くおのれを惡ましむされば永くわが僕となるべし
And Achish believeth in David, saying, 'He hath made himself utterly abhorred among his people, in Israel, and hath been to me for a servant age-during.'
