サムエル記Ⅰ 30

1 ダビデと其從者第三日にチクラグにいたるにアマレク人すでに南の地とチクラグを侵したりかれらチクラグを撃ち火をもて之を燬き

And it cometh to pass, in the coming in of David and his men to Ziklag, on the third day, that the Amalekites have pushed unto the south, and unto Ziklag, and smite Ziklag, and burn it with fire,

2 其中に居りし婦女を擄にし老たるをも若きをも一人も殺さずして之をひきて其途におもむけり

and they take captive the women who [are] in it; from small unto great they have not put any one to death, and they lead away, and go on their way.

3 ダビデと其從者邑にいたりて視に邑は火に燬けその妻と男子女子は擄にせられたり

And David cometh in — and his men — unto the city, and lo, burnt with fire, and their wives, and their sons, and their daughters have been taken captive!

4 ダビデおよびこれとともにある民聲をあげて哭き終に哭く力もなきにいたれり

And David lifteth up — and the people who [are] with him — their voice and weep, till that they have no power to weep.

5 ダビデのふたり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も虜にせられたり

And the two wives of David have been taken captive, Ahinoam the Jezreelitess, and Abigail wife of Nabal the Carmelite;

6 時にダビデ大に心を苦めたり其は民おのおの其男子女子のために氣をいらだてダビデを石にて撃んといひたればなりされどダビデ其神ヱホバによりておのれをはげませり

and David hath great distress, for the people have said to stone him, for the soul of all the people hath been bitter, each for his sons and for his daughters; and David doth strengthen himself in Jehovah his God.

7 ダビデ、アヒメレクの子祭司アビヤタルにいひけるは請ふエポデを我にもちきたれとアビヤタル、エポデをダビデにもちきたる

And David saith unto Abiathar the priest, son of Ahimelech, 'Bring nigh, I pray thee, to me the ephod;' and Abiathar bringeth nigh the ephod unto David,

8 ダビデ、ヱホバに問ていひけるは我此軍の後を追ふべきや我これに追つくことをえんかとヱホバかれにこたへたまはく追ふべし爾かならず追つきてたしかに取もどすことをえん

and David asketh at Jehovah, saying, 'I pursue after this troop — do I overtake it?' And He saith to him, 'Pursue, for thou dost certainly overtake, and dost certainly deliver.'

9 ダビデおよびこれとともなる六百人の者ゆきてベソル川にいたれり後にのこれる者はここにとどまる

And David goeth on, he and six hundred men who [are] with him, and they come in unto the brook of Besor, and those left have stood still,

10 即ちダビデ四百人をひきゐて追ゆきしが憊れてベソル川をわたることあたはざる者二百人はとどまれり

and David pursueth, he and four hundred men, (and two hundred men stand still who have been too faint to pass over the brook of Besor),

11 衆人野にて一人のエジプト人を見これをダビデにひききたりてこれに食物をあたへければ食へりまたこれに水をのませたり

and they find a man, an Egyptian, in the field, and take him unto David, and give to him bread, and he eateth, and they cause him to drink water,

12 すなはち一段の乾無花果と二球の乾葡萄をこれにあたへたり彼くらひて其氣ふたたび爽かになれりかれは三日三夜物をもくはず水をものまざりしなり

and give to him a piece of a bunch of dried figs, and two bunches of raisins, and he eateth, and his spirit returneth unto him, for he hath not eaten bread nor drunk water three days and three nights.

13 ダビデかれにいひけるは爾は誰の人なる爾はいづくの者なるやかれいひけるは我はエジプトの少者にて一人のアマレク人の僕なり三日まへに我疾にかかりしゆゑにわが主人我をすてたり

And David saith to him, 'Whose [art] thou? and whence [art] thou?' And he saith, 'An Egyptian youth I [am], servant to a man, an Amalekite, and my lord forsaketh me, for I have been sick three days,

14 我らケレテ人の南とユダの地とカレブの南ををかしまた火をもてチクラグをやけり

we pushed [to] the south of the Cherethite, and against that which [is] to Judah, and against the south of Caleb, and Ziklag we burned with fire.'

15 ダビデかれにいひけるは爾我を此軍にみちびきくだるやかれいひけるは爾我をころさずまた我をわが主人の手にわたさざるを神をさして我に誓へ我爾を此軍にみちびきくだらん

And David saith unto him, 'Dost thou bring me down unto this troop?' and he saith, 'Swear to me by God — thou dost not put me to death, nor dost thou shut me up into the hand of my lord — and I bring thee down unto this troop.'

16 かれダビデをみちびきくだりしが視よ彼等はペリシテ人の地とユダの地より奪ひたる諸の大なる掠取物のためによろこびて飮食し踊りつつ地にあまねく散ひろがりて居る

And he bringeth him down, and lo, they are spread out over the face of all the earth, eating, and drinking, and feasting, with all the great spoil which they have taken out of the land of the Philistines, and out of the land of Judah.

17 ダビデ暮あひより次日の晩にいたるまでかれらを撃しかば駱駝にのりて逃げたる四百人の少者の外は一人ものがれたるもの无りき

And David smiteth them from the twilight even unto the evening of the morrow, and there hath not escaped of them a man, except four hundred young men who have ridden on the camels, and are fled.

18 ダビデはすべてアマレク人の奪ひたる物を取りもどせり其二人の妻もダビデとりもどせり

And David delivereth all that the Amalekites have taken; also his two wives hath David delivered.

19 小きも大なるも男子も女子も掠取物もすべてアマレク人の奪さりし物は一も失はずダビデことごとく取かへせり

And there hath not lacked to them [anything], from small unto great, and unto sons and daughters, and from the spoil, even unto all that they had taken to themselves, the whole hath David brought back,

20 ダビデまた凡の羊と牛をとれり人々この家畜をそのまへに驅きたり是はダビデの掠取物なりといへり

and David taketh the whole of the flock, and of the herd, they have led on before these cattle, and they say, 'This [is] David's spoil.'

21 かくてダビデかの憊れてダビデにしたがひ得ずしてベソル川のほとりに止まりし二百人の者のところにいたるに彼らダビデをいでむかへまたダビデとともなる民をいでむかふダビデかの民にちかづきてその安否をたづぬ

And David cometh in unto the two hundred men who were too faint to go after David, and whom they cause to abide at the brook of Besor, and they go out to meet David, and to meet the people who [are] with him, and David approacheth the people, and asketh of them of welfare.

22 ダビデとともにゆきし人々の中の惡く邪なる者みなこたへていひけるは彼等は我らとともにゆかざりければ我らこれに取りもどしたる掠取物をわけあたふべからず唯おのおのにその妻子をあたへてこれをみちびきさらしめん

And every bad and worthless man, of the men who have gone with David, answereth, yea, they say, 'Because that they have not gone with us we do not give to them of the spoil which we have delivered, except each his wife and his children, and they lead away and go.

23 ダビデ言けるはわが兄弟よヱホバ我らをまもり我らにせめきたりし軍を我らの手にわたしたまひたれば爾らヱホバのわれらにたまひし物をしかするは宜からず

And David saith, 'Ye do not do so, my brethren, with that which Jehovah hath given to us, and He doth preserve us, and doth give the troop which cometh against us into our hand;

24 誰か爾らにかかることをゆるさんや戰ひにくだりし者の取る分のごとく輜重のかたはらに止まりし者の取る分もまた然あるべし共にひとしく取るべし

and who doth hearken to you in this thing? for as the portion of him who was brought down into battle, so also [is] the portion of him who is abiding by the vessels — alike they share.'

25 この日よりのちダビデこれをイスラエルの法となし例となせり其事今日にいたる

And it cometh to pass from that day and forward, that he appointeth it for a statute and for an ordinance for Israel unto this day.

26 ダビデ、チクラグにいたりて其掠取物をユダの長老なる其朋友にわかちおくりて曰しめけるは是はヱホバの敵よりとりて爾らにおくる饋物なり

And David cometh in unto Ziklag, and sendeth of the spoil to the elders of Judah, to his friends, (saying, 'Lo, for you a blessing, of the spoil of the enemies of Jehovah),'

27 ベテルにをるもの南のラモテにをるものヤツテルにをる者

to those in Beth-El, and to those in South Ramoth, and to those in Jattir,

28 アロエルにをる者シフモテにをるものエシテモにをるもの

and to those in Aroer, and to those in Siphmoth, and to those in Eshtemoa,

29 ラカルにをるものヱラメル人の邑にをるものケニ人の邑にをるもの

and to those in Rachal, and to those in the cities of the Jerahmeelites, and to those in the cities of the Kenites,

30 ホルマにをるものコラシヤンにをるものアタクにをるもの

and to those in Hormah, and to those in Chor-Ashan, and to those in Athach,

31 ヘブロンにをるものおよびすべてダビデが其從者とともに毎にゆきし所にこれをわかちおくれり

and to those in Hebron, and to all the places where David had gone up and down, he and his men.
