サムエル記Ⅰ 5
1 ペリシテ人神の櫃をとりて之をエベネゼルよりアシドドにもちきたる
Then the Philistims tooke the Arke of God and caried it from Eben-ezer vnto Ashdod,
2 即ちペリシテ人神の櫃をとりて之をダゴンの家にもちきたりダゴンの傍に置ぬ
Euen the Philistims tooke ye Arke of God, and brought it into the house of Dagon, and set it by Dagon.
3 アシドド人次の日夙く興きヱホバの櫃のまへにダゴンの俯伏に地にたふれをるをみ乃ちダゴンをとりて再びこれを本の處におく
And when they of Ashdod rose the next day in the morning, beholde, Dagon was fallen vpon his face on the ground before the Arke of the Lord, and they tooke vp Dagon, and set him in his place againe.
4 また翌朝夙く興きヱホバの櫃のまへにダゴン俯伏に地にたふれをるを見るダゴンの頭と其兩手門閾のうへに斷ち切れをり只ダゴンの體のみのこれり
Also they rose vp earely in the morning the next day, and beholde, Dagon was fallen vpon his face on the ground before the Arke of the Lord, and the head of Dagon and the two palmes of his hands were cut off vpon the thresholde: onely the stumpe of Dagon was left to him.
5 是をもてダゴンの祭司およびダゴンの家にいるもの今日にいたるまでアシドドにあるダゴンの閾をふまず
Therefore the Priests of Dagon, and all that come into Dagons house tread not on the thresholde of Dagon in Ashdod, vnto this day.
6 かくてヱホバの手おもくアシドド人にくははりヱホバこれをほろぼし腫物をもてアシドドおよび其四周の人をくるしめたまふ
But the hand of the Lord was heauie vpon them of Ashdod, and destroyed them, and smote them with the emerods, both Ashdod, and the coastes thereof.
7 アシドド人その斯るを見ていひけるはイスラエルの神の櫃を我らのうちにとどむべからず其は其手いたくわれらおよび我らの神ダゴンにくははればなり
And when the men of Ashdod sawe this, they sayd, Let not the Arke of the God of Israel abide with vs: for his hand is sore vpon vs and vpon Dagon our god.
8 是故に人をつかはしてペリシテ人の諸君主を集めていひけるはイスラエルの神の櫃をいかにすべきや彼らいひけるはイスラエルの神のはこはガテに移さんと遂にイスラエルの神のはこをうつす
They sent therefore and gathered all the princes of the Philistims vnto them, and sayde, What shall we doe with the Arke of the God of Israel? And they answered, Let the Arke of the God of Israel be caried about vnto Gath: and they caried the Arke of the God of Israel about.
9 之をうつせるのち神の手其邑にくははりて滅亡るもの甚だおほし即ち老たると幼とをいはず邑の人をうちたまひて腫物人々におこれり
And when they had caried it about, the hand of the Lord was against the citie with a very great destruction, and he smote the men of the citie both small and great, and they had emerods in their secret partes.
10 是において神のはこをエクロンにおくりたるに神の櫃エクロンにいたりしときエクロン人さけびていひけるは我等とわが民をころさんとてイスラエルの神のはこを我等にうつすと
Therefore they sent the Arke of God to Ekron: and assoone as the Arke of God came to Ekron, the Ekronites cryed out, saying, They haue brought the Arke of the God of Israel to vs to slay vs and our people.
11 かくて人を遣してペリシテ人の諸君主をあつめていひけるはイスラエルの神の櫃をおくりて本のところにかへさん然らば我等とわが民をころすことなからん蓋は邑中に恐ろしき滅亡おこり神の手甚だおもく其處にくははればなり
Therefore they sent, and gathered together all the princes of the Philistims and sayd, Sende away the Arke of the God of Israel, and let it returne to his owne place, that it slay vs not and our people: for there was a destruction and death throughout all the citie, and the hand of God was very sore there.
12 死なざる者は腫物にくるしめられ邑の號呼天に達せり
And the men that dyed not, were smitten with the emerods: and the cry of the citie went vp to heauen.
