申命記 13

1 汝らの中に預言者あるひは夢者興りて徴證と奇蹟を汝に見し

When there shall arise in thy midst—a prophet, or a dreamer of dreams, —and he shall give unto thee a sign or a wonder;

2 汝に告て我らは今より汝と我とが是まで識ざりし他の神々に從ひて之に事へんと言ことあらんにその徴證または奇蹟これが言ごとく成とも

and the sign or the wonder shall come in, whereof he spake unto thee, saying, —Let us go after other gods, which ye know not and let us serve them

3 汝その預言者または夢者の言に聽したがふ勿れ其は汝等の神ヱホバ汝らが心を盡し精神を盡して汝らの神ヱホバを愛するや否やを知んとて斯なんぢらを試みたまふなればなり

thou shalt not hearken unto the words of that prophet, or unto that dreamer of dreams, —for Yahweh your God, is putting you to the proof, to know whether ye do love Yahweh your God, with all your heart and with all your soul.

4 汝らは汝らの神ヱホバに從ひて歩み之を畏れその誡命を守りその言に遵ひ之に事へこれに附從ふべし

After Yahweh your God, shall ye walk And him, shall ye revere, —And his commandments, shall ye observe. And unto his voice, shall ye hearken, And him, shall ye serve And unto him, shall ye cleave.

5 その預言者または夢者をば殺すべし是は彼汝らをして汝らをエジプトの國より導き出し奴隸の家より贖ひ取たる汝らの神ヱホバに背かせんとし汝の神ヱホバの汝に歩めと命ぜし道より汝を誘ひ出さんとして語るに因てなり汝斯して汝の中より惡を除き去べし

And that prophet or that dreamer of dreams, shall be put to death because he hath spoken revolt against Yahweh your God, —who brought you forth out of the land of Egypt and redeemed thee out of the house of servants, to seduce thee out of the way wherein Yahweh thy God hath commanded thee to walk, —so shalt thou consume the wicked thing out of thy midst.

6 汝の母の生る汝の兄弟または汝の男子女子または汝の懐の妻または汝と身命を共にする汝の友潜に汝を誘ひて言あらん汝も汝の先祖等も識ざりし他の神々に我ら往て事へん

When thy brother—son of thine own mother or thine own son or thine own daughter, or the wife of thy bosom, or thy friend who is as thine own soul, shall entice thee secretly, saying, —Let us go and serve other gods, whom thou hast not known, thou, nor thy fathers;

7 即ち汝の周圍にある國々の神の或は汝に近く或は汝に遠くして地の此極より地の彼極までに鎮り坐る者に我ら事へんと斯言ことあるとも

of the gods of the peoples who are round about you, who are near unto thee, or who are far off from thee, —from one end of the earth even unto the other end of the earth,

8 汝これに從ふ勿れ之に聽なかれ之を惜み視る勿れ之を憐むなかれ之を庇ひ匿す勿れ

thou shalt not consent unto him, neither shalt thou hearken unto him, —neither shall thine eye look with pity upon him, neither shalt thou spare—neither shalt thou conceal him;

9 汝かならず之を殺すべし之を殺すには汝まづ之に手を下し然る後に民みな手を下すべし

but thou shalt slay, him, thine own hand, shall be on him first, to put him to death, —and the hand of all the people afterwards.

10 彼はエジプトの國奴隸の家より汝を導き出したまひし汝の神ヱホバより汝を誘ひ離さんと求めたれば汝石をもて之を撃殺すべし

And thou shalt stone him with stones that he die, —for he hath sought to seduce thee from Yahweh thy God, who brought thee forth out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of servants.

11 然せばイスラエルみな聞て懼れ重ねて斯る惡き事を汝らの中に行はざらん

And, all Israel, shall hear and fear, —and shall not again do according to this wickedness in thy midst.

12 汝聞に汝の神ヱホバの汝に與へて住しめたまへる汝の邑の一に

When thou shalt hear—in one of thy cities which Yahweh thy God is giving unto thee to dwell there—saying:

13 邪僻なる人々興り我らは今まで識ざりし他の神々に往て事へんと言てその邑に住む人を誘ひ惑はしたりと言あらば

There have gone forth men sons of the Abandoned One, out of thy midst, and have seduced the inhabitants of their city, saying, —Let us go, and serve other gods which ye have not known;

14 汝これを尋ね探り善問べし若その事眞にその言確にして斯る憎むべき事汝らの中に行はれたらば

and thou shalt enquire, and search out, and ask diligently, —and lo! true—certain, is the thing, this abomination, hath been done, in thy midst,

15 汝かならずその邑に住む者を刃にかけて撃ころしその邑とその中に居る一切の者およびその家畜を刃にかけて盡く撃ころすべし

then shalt thou smite, the inhabitants of that city with the edge of the sword, devoting it to destruction, and all that is therein and the cattle thereof: with the edge of the sword, —

16 またその中より獲たる掠取物は凡てこれをその衢に集め火をもてその邑とその一切の掠取物をことごとく焚て汝の神ヱホバに供ふべし是は永く荒邱となりて再び建なほさるること無るべきなり

and all the spoil thereof, shalt thou gather together into the midst of the broadway thereof, and shalt consume with fire the city and all the spoil thereof, every whit, unto Yahweh thy God, —and it shall be a heap unto times age-abiding, it shall be built no more.

17 斯汝この詛はれし物を少許も汝の手に附おく勿れ然せばヱホバその烈しき怒を靜め汝に慈悲を加へて汝を憐れみ汝の先祖等に誓ひしごとく汝の數を衆くしたまはん

So shall there not cleave to thy hand aught of the devoted thing, —that Yahweh may turn away, from the glow of his anger and grant thee compassion and have compassion upon thee and multiply thee, as he sware unto thy fathers;

18 汝もし汝の神ヱホバの言を聽き我が今日なんぢに命ずるその一切の誡命を守り汝の神ヱホバの善と觀たまふ事を行はば是のごとくなるべし

so long as thou shalt hearken unto the voice of Yahweh thy God, to keep all his commandments, which I am commanding thee to-day, —to do what is right in the eyes of Yahweh thy God.
