サムエル記Ⅱ 10
1 此後アンモンの子孫の王死て其子ハヌン之に代りて位に即く
After this, the King of the children of Ammon dyed, and Hanun his sonne reigned in his steade.
2 ダビデ我ナハシの子ハヌンにその父の我に恩惠を示せしごとく恩惠を示さんといひてダビデかれを其父の故によりて慰めんとて其僕を遣せりダビデの僕アンモンの子孫の地にいたるに
Then sayde Dauid, I will shewe kindnesse vnto Hanun the sonne of Nahash, as his father shewed kindnesse vnto me. And Dauid sent his seruantes to comfort him for his father. So Dauids seruants came into the lande of the children of Ammon.
3 アンモンの子孫の諸伯其主ハヌンにいひけるはダビデ慰者を汝に遣はしたるによりて彼汝の父を崇むと汝の目に見ゆるやダビデ此城邑を窺ひこれを探りて陷いれんために其僕を汝に遣はせるにあらずや
And the princes of the children of Ammon sayde vnto Hanun their lorde, Thinkest thou that Dauid doth honour thy father, that he hath sent comforters to thee? hath not Dauid rather sent his seruants vnto thee, to search the citie, and to spie it out, and to ouerthrow it?
4 是においてハヌン、ダビデの僕を執へ其鬚の半を剃り落し其衣服を中より斷て股までにしてこれを歸せり
Wherefore Hanun tooke Dauids seruants, and shaued off the halfe of their beard, and cut off their garments in the middle, euen to their buttockes, and sent them away.
5 人々これをダビデに告たればダビデ人を遣はしてかれらを迎へしむ其人々大に恥たればなり即ち王いふ汝ら鬚の長るまでヱリコに止まりて然るのち歸るべしと
When it was told vnto Dauid, he sent to meete them (for the men were exceedingly ashamed) and the King sayde, Tary at Iericho, vntill your beards be growen, then returne.
6 アンモンの子孫自己のダビデに惡まるるを見しかばアンモンの子孫人を遣はしてベテレホブのスリア人とゾバのスリア人の歩兵二萬人およびマアカの王より一千人トブの人より一萬二千人を雇いれたり
And when the children of Ammon sawe that they stanke in the sight of Dauid, the children of Ammon sent and hired the Aramites of the house of Rehob, and the Aramites of Zoba, twentie thousande footemen, and of King Maacah a thousand men, and of Ish-tob twelue thousande men.
7 ダビデ聞てヨアブと勇士の惣軍を遣はせり
And when Dauid heard of it, he sent Ioab, and all the hoste of the strong men.
8 アンモンの子孫出て門の入口に軍の陣列をなしたりゾバとレホブのスリア人およびトブの人とマアカの人は別に野に居り
And the children of Ammon came out, and put their armie in araye at the entring in of the gate: and the Aramites of Zoba, and of Rehob, and of Ish-tob, and of Maacah were by themselues in the fielde.
9 ヨアブ戰の前後より己に向ふを見てイスラエルの選抜の兵の中を選みてこれをスリア人に對ひて備へしめ
When Ioab saw that the front of the battel was against him before and behinde, he chose of all the choyse of Israel, and put them in aray against the Aramites.
10 其餘の民をば其兄弟アビシヤイの手に交してアンモンの子孫に向て備へしめて
And the rest of the people hee deliuered into the hande of Abishai his brother, that hee might put them in aray against the children of Ammon.
11 いひけるは若スリア人我に手強からば汝我を助けよ若アンモンの子孫汝に手剛からば我ゆきて汝をたすけん
And he sayde, If the Aramites be stronger then I, thou shalt helpe me, and if the children of Ammon be too strong for thee, I will come and succour thee.
12 汝勇ましくなれよ我ら民のためとわれらの神の諸邑のために勇しく爲んねがはくはヱホバ其目によしと見ゆるところをなしたまへ
Be strong and let vs be valiant for our people, and for the cities of our God, and let the Lord do that which is good in his eyes.
13 ヨアブ己と共に在る民と共にスリア人にむかひて戰んとて近づきければスリア人彼のまへより逃たり
Then Ioab, and the people that was with him, ioyned in battel with the Aramites, who fled before him.
14 アンモンの子孫スリア人の逃たるを見て亦自己等もアビシヤイのまへより逃て城邑にいりぬヨアブすなはちアンモンの子孫の所より還りてエルサレムにいたる
And when the children of Ammon sawe that the Aramites fled, they fled also before Abishai, and entred into the citie. so Ioab returned from the children of Ammon, and came to Ierusalem.
15 スリア人其イスラエルのまへに敗れたるを見て倶にあつまれり
And when the Aramites sawe that they were smitten before Israel, they gathered them together.
16 ハダデゼル人をやりて河の前岸にをるスリア人を將ゐ出して皆ヘラムにきたらしむハダデゼルの軍の長シヨバクかれらを率ゐたり
And Hadarezer sent, and brought out the Aramites that were beyond the Riuer: and they came to Helam, and Shobach the captaine of the hoste of Hadarezer went before them.
17 其事ダビデに聞えければ彼イスラエルを悉く集めてヨルダンを渉りてヘラムに來れりスリア人ダビデに向ひて備へ之と戰ふ
When it was shewed Dauid, then he gathered all Israel together, and passed ouer Iorden and came to Helam: and the Aramites set themselues in aray against Dauid, and fought with him:
18 スリア人イスラエルのまへより逃ければダビデ、スリアの兵車の人七百騎兵四萬を殺し又其軍の長シヨバクを撃てこれを其所に死しめたり
And the Aramites fled before Israel: and Dauid destroyed seuen hundreth charets of the Aramites, and fourtie thousande horsemen, and smote Shobach the captaine of his hoste, who dyed there.
19 ハダデゼルの臣なる王等其イスラエルのまへに壞れたるを見てイスラエルと平和をなして之に事へたり斯スリア人は恐れて再びアンモンの子孫を助くることをせざりき
And when all the Kings, that were seruants to Hadarezer, saw that they fell before Israel, they made peace with Israel, and serued them. and the Aramites feared to helpe the children of Ammon any more.
