< サムエル記Ⅱ 6 >
1 ダビデ再びイスラエルの選抜の兵士三萬人を悉く集む
And David, once more, gathered together all the choice young men in Israel, thirty thousand.
2 ダビデ起ておのれと共にをる民とともにバアレユダに往て神の櫃を其處より舁上らんとす其櫃はケルビムの上に坐したまふ萬軍のヱホバの名をもて呼る
Then David, and all the people that were with him, arose and went beyond Baale Judah, —to bring up from thence, the ark of God, the name whereof is called by the name of Yahweh of hosts, who inhabiteth the cherubim thereupon.
3 すなはち神の櫃を新しき車に載せて山にあるアビナダブの家より舁だせり
So they carried the ark of God in a new waggon, and brought it out of the house of Abinadab, who was in Gibeah, —and, Uzza and Ahio, sons of Abinadab, were driving the new waggon.
4 アビナダブの子ウザとアヒオ神の櫃を載たる其新しき車を御しアヒオは櫃のまへにゆけり
So they brought it out of the house of Abinadab, which was in Gibeah, with the ark of God, —and, Ahio, was going before the ark.
5 ダビデおよびイスラエルの全家琴と瑟と鼗と鈴と鐃鈸をもちて力を極め謡を歌ひてヱホバのまへに躍踴れり
And, David and all the house of Israel, were dancing for joy before Yahweh, with all boldness and with songs, —and with lyres, and with harps, and with timbrels, and with sistrums, and with cymbals.
6 彼等がナコンの禾場にいたれる時ウザ手を神の櫃に伸してこれを扶へたり其は牛振たればなり
And, when they came as far as the threshing-floor of Nachon, Uzzah thrust forth his hand unto the ark of God, and took hold of it, for the oxen were restive.
7 ヱホバ、ウザにむかひて怒りを發し其誤謬のために彼を其處に撃ちたまひければ彼そこに神の櫃の傍に死ねり
Then was kindled the anger of Yahweh, against Uzzah, and God smote him there, for the error, —so that he died there, by the ark of God.
8 ヱホバ、ウザを撃ちたまひしによりてダビデ怒り其處をペレヅウザ(ウザ撃)と呼り其名今日にいたる
And it was a sadness unto David, for that Yahweh had broken in with a breach against Uzzah, —therefore called he that place, Perez-uzzah [as it is called] until this day.
9 其日ダビデ、ヱホバを畏れていひけるはヱホバの櫃いかで我所にいたるべけんやと
And David was afraid of Yahweh, on that day, —and said, How can the ark of Yahweh come unto me?
10 ダビデ、ヱホバの櫃を己に移してダビデの城邑にいらしむるを好まず之を轉してガテ人オベデエドムの家にいたらしむ
So David would not remove unto him the ark of Yahweh, unto the city of David, —but David took it aside to the house of Obed-edom, the Gittite.
11 ヱホバの櫃ガテ人オベデエドムの家に在ること三月なりきヱホバ、オベデエドムと其全家を惠みたまふ
And the ark of Yahweh abode in the house of Obed-edom the Gittite, three months, —and Yahweh blessed Obed -edom, and all his household.
12 ヱホバ神の櫃のためにオベデエドムの家と其所有を皆惠みたまふといふ事ダビデ王に聞えけれぼダビデゆきて喜樂をもて神の櫃をオベデエドムの家よりダビデの城邑に舁上れり
And it was told King David, saying, Yahweh hath blessed the household of Obed-edom, and all that he hath, because of the ark of God. David therefore went and brought up the ark of God, out of the house of Obed-edom, unto the city of David, with rejoicing.
13 ヱホバの櫃を舁者六歩行](ゆき)}たる時ダビデ牛と肥たる者を献げたり
And so it was that, when they who bare the ark of Yahweh had stepped forward six paces, he sacrificed an ox and a heifer.
14 ダビデ力を極めてヱホバの前に踊躍れり時にダビデ布のエポデを著け居たり
And, David, was dancing with all boldness before Yahweh, —David, being girt with an ephod of linen.
15 ダビデおよびイスラエルの全家歓呼と喇叭の聲をもてヱホバの櫃を舁のぼれり
So, David and all the house of Israel, were bringing up the ark of Yahweh, —with triumphant shoutings, and with the sound of a horn.
16 神の櫃ダビデの城邑にいりし時サウルの女ミカル窻より窺ひてダビデ王のヱホバのまへに舞躍るを見其心にダビデを蔑視む
Now it so came about that, when the ark of Yahweh entered the city of David, Michal Saul’s daughter, looked out through the window, and saw King David, leaping and dancing before Yahweh, and she despised him, in her heart.
17 人々ヱホバの櫃を舁入てこれをダビデが其爲に張たる天幕の中なる其所に置りしかしてダビデ燔祭と酬恩祭をヱホバのまへに献げたり
So they brought in the ark of Yahweh, and set it in its place, in the midst of the tent which David had stretched out for it, —and David caused to go up ascending-sacrifices before Yahweh, and peace-offerings.
18 ダビデ燔祭と酬恩祭を献ぐることを終し時萬軍のヱホバの名を以て民を祝せり
And, when David had finished offering up the ascending-sacrifice and the peace-offerings, he blessed the people in the name of Yahweh of hosts.
19 また民の中即ちイスラエルの衆庶の中に男にも女にも倶にパン一箇 肉一斤 乾葡萄一塊を分ちあたへたり斯て民皆おのおの其家にかへりぬ
And he apportioned to all the people, to all the multitude of Israel, both to men and to women—to every one, a loaf of bread, and a sweet drink, and a raisin-cake, —and all the people went their way, every one unto his own house;
20 爰にダビデ其家族を祝せんとて歸りしかばサウルの女ミカル、ダビデをいでむかへていひけるはイスラエルの王今日如何に威光ありしや自ら遊蕩者の其身を露すがごとく今日其臣僕の婢女のまへに其身を露したまへりと
and David returned, to bless his household. Then came forth Michal Saul’s daughter to meet David, and said—How honoured, to-day, was the king of Israel in disrobing himself to-day, in the sight of the handmaids of his servants, as one of the low people, might disrobe himself?
21 ダビデ、ミカルにいふ我はヱホバのまへに即ち汝の父よりもまたその全家よりも我を選みて我をヱホバの民イスラエルの首長に命じたまへるヱホバのまへに躍れり
And David said unto Michal, Before Yahweh, I will dance, —blessed, be Yahweh, who made choice of me above thy father, and above all his house, putting me in charge as leader over the people of Yahweh, over Israel, —therefore will I dance before Yahweh;
22 我は此よりも尚鄙からんまたみづから賤しと思はん汝が語る婢女等とともにありて我は尊榮をえんと
and will make myself, yet more, lightly esteemed that this, and become lowly in mine own eyes, —nevertheless, with the handmaids of whom thou hast spoken, with them, shall I be honoured.
23 是故にサウルの女ミカルは死ぬる日まで子あらざりき
Therefore, Michal Saul’s daughter, had no child, —unto the day of her death.
