サムエル記Ⅰ 7
1 キリアテヤリムの人來りヱホバのはこを携へのぼりこれを山のうへなるアビナダブの家にもちきたり其子エレアザルを聖てヱホバの櫃をまもらしむ
And the men of Kirjath-jearim came, and fetched up the ark of YHWH, and brought it into the house of Abinadab in the hill, and sanctified Eleazar his son to keep the ark of YHWH.
2 其櫃キリアテヤリムにとどまること久しくして二十年をへたりイスラエルの全家ヱホバをしたひて歎けり
And it came to pass, while the ark abode in Kirjath-jearim, that the time was long; for it was twenty years: and all the house of Israel lamented after YHWH.
3 時にサムエル、イスラエルの全家に告ていひけるは汝らもし一心を以てヱホバにかへり異る神とアシタロテを汝らの中より棄て汝らの心をヱホバに定め之にのみ事へなばヱホバ汝らをペリシテ人の手より救ひださん
And Samuel spake unto all the house of Israel, saying, If ye do return unto YHWH with all your hearts, then put away the strangeelohim and Ashtaroth from among you, and prepare your hearts unto YHWH, and serve him only: and he will deliver you out of the hand of the Philistines.
4 ここにおいてイスラエルの人々バアルとアシタロテをすててヱホバにのみ事ふ
Then the children of Israel did put away Baalim and Ashtaroth, and served YHWH only.
5 サムエルいひけるはイスラエル人をことごとくミズパにあつめよ我汝らのためにヱホバにいのらん
And Samuel said, Gather all Israel to Mizpeh, and I will pray for you unto YHWH.
6 かれらミズパに集り水を汲て之をヱホバのまへに注ぎ其日斷食して彼處にいひけるは我等ヱホバに罪ををかしたりとサムエル、ミズパに於てイスラエルの人を鞫く
And they gathered together to Mizpeh, and drew water, and poured it out before YHWH, and fasted on that day, and said there, We have sinned against YHWH. And Samuel judged the children of Israel in Mizpeh.
7 ペリシテ人イスラエルの人々のミズパに集れるを聞しかばペリシテ人の諸君主イスラエルにせめのぼれりイスラエル人これを聞てペリシテ人をおそれたり
And when the Philistines heard that the children of Israel were gathered together to Mizpeh, rulers of the Philistines went up against Israel. And when the children of Israel heard it, they were afraid of the Philistines.
8 イスラエルの人々サムエルに云けるは我らのために我らの神ヱホバに祈ることをやむるなかれ然らばヱホバ我らをペリシテ人の手よりすくひいださん
And the children of Israel said to Samuel, Cease not to cry unto YHWH our Elohim for us, that he will save us out of the hand of the Philistines.
9 サムエル哺乳羊をとり燔祭となしてこれをまつたくヱホバにささぐまたサムエル、イスラエルのためにヱホバにいのりければヱホバこれにこたへたまふ
And Samuel took a sucking lamb, and offered it for a burnt offering wholly unto YHWH: and Samuel cried unto YHWH for Israel; and YHWH heard him.
10 サムエル燔祭をささげ居し時ペリシテ人イスラエル人と戰はんとて近づきぬ是日ヱホバ大なる雷をくだしペリシテ人をうちて之を亂し賜ければペリシテ人イスラエル人のまへに敗れたり
And as Samuel was offering up the burnt offering, the Philistines drew near to battle against Israel: but YHWH thundered with a great thunder on that day upon the Philistines, and discomfited them; and they were smitten before Israel.
11 イスラエル人ミズパをいでてペリシテ人をおひ之をうちてベテカルの下にいたる
And the men of Israel went out of Mizpeh, and pursued the Philistines, and smote them, until they came under Beth-car.
12 サムエル一の石をとりてミズパとセンの間におきヱホバ是まで我らを助けたまへりといひて其名をエベネゼル(助けの石)と呼ぶ
Then Samuel took a stone, and set it between Mizpeh and Shen, and called the name of it Eben-ezer, saying, Hitherto hath YHWH helped us.
13 ペリシテ人攻伏られて再びイスラエルの境にいらずサムエルの一生のあひだヱホバの手ペリシテ人をふせげり
So the Philistines were subdued, and they came no more into the coast of Israel: and the hand of YHWH was against the Philistines all the days of Samuel.
14 ペリシテ人のイスラエルより取たる邑々はエクロンよりガテまでイスラエルにかへりぬまた其周圍の地はイスラエル人これをペリシテ人の手よりとりかへせりまたイスラエル人とアモリ人と好をむすべり
And the cities which the Philistines had taken from Israel were restored to Israel, from Ekron even unto Gath; and the coasts thereof did Israel deliver out of the hands of the Philistines. And there was peace between Israel and the Amorites.
15 サムエル一生のあひだイスラエルをさばき
And Samuel judged Israel all the days of his life.
16 歳々ベテルとギルガルおよびミズパをめぐりて其處々にてイスラエル人をさばき
And he went from year to year in circuit to Bethel, and Gilgal, and Mizpeh, and judged Israel in all those places.
17 またラマにかへれり此處に其家あり此にてイスラエルをさばき又此にてヱホバに壇をきづけり
And his return was to Ramah; for there was his house; and there he judged Israel; and there he built an altar unto YHWH.
