申命記 29
1 ヱホバ、モーセに命じモアブの地にてイスラエルの子孫と契約を結ばしめたまふその言は斯のごとし是はホレブにてかれらと結びし契約の外なる者なり
These are the words of the covenant which the LORD commanded Moses to make with the children of Israel in the land of Moab, in addition to the covenant which he made with them in Horeb.
2 モーセ、イスラエルの全家を呼あつめて之に言けるは汝らはヱホバがエジプトの地において汝らの目の前にてパロとその臣下とその全地とに爲たまひし一切の事を觀たり
Moses called to all Israel, and said to them: Your eyes have seen all that the LORD did in the land of Egypt to Pharaoh, and to all his servants, and to all his land;
3 即ち其大なる試煉と徴證と大なる奇跡とを汝目に觀たるなり
the great trials which your eyes saw, the signs, and those great wonders.
4 然るにヱホバ今日にいたるまで汝らの心をして悟ることなく目をして見ることなく耳をして聞ことなからしめたまへり
But the LORD has not given you a heart to know, eyes to see, and ears to hear, to this day.
5 四十年の間われ汝らを導きて曠野を通りしが汝らの身の衣服は古びず汝の足の鞋は古びざりき
I have led you forty years in the wilderness. Your clothes have not grown old on you, and your sandals have not grown old on your feet.
6 汝らはまたパンをも食はず葡萄酒をも濃酒をも飮ざりき斯ありて汝らは我が汝らの神ヱホバなることを知り
You have not eaten bread, neither have you drunk wine or strong drink, that you may know that I am the LORD your God.
7 汝らこの處に來りし時ヘシボンの王シホンおよびバシヤンの王オグ我らを迎へて戰ひしが我らこれを打敗りて
When you came to this place, Sihon the king of Heshbon and Og the king of Bashan came out against us to battle, and we struck them.
8 その地を取りこれをルベン人とガド人とマナセの半支派とに與へて產業となさしめたり
We took their land, and gave it for an inheritance to the Reubenites, and to the Gadites, and to the half-tribe of the Manassites.
9 然ば汝らこの契約の言を守りてこれを行ふべし然れば汝らの凡て爲ところに祥あらん
Therefore keep the words of this covenant and do them, that you may prosper in all that you do.
10 汝らみな今日なんぢらの神ヱホバの前に立つ即ち汝らの首領等なんぢらの支派なんぢらの長老等および汝らの牧司等などイスラエルの一切の人
All of you stand today in the presence of the LORD your God: your heads, your tribes, your elders, and your officers, even all the men of Israel,
11 汝らの小き者等汝らの妻ならびに汝らの營の中にをる客旅など凡て汝のために薪を割る者より水を汲む者にいたるまで皆ヱホバの前に立て
your little ones, your wives, and the foreigners who are in the middle of your camps, from the one who cuts your wood to the one who draws your water,
12 汝の神ヱホバの契約に入んとし又汝の神ヱホバの汝にむかひて今日なしたまふところの誓に入んとす
that you may enter into the covenant of the LORD your God, and into his oath, which the LORD your God makes with you today,
13 然ばヱホバさきに汝に言しごとくまた汝の先祖アブラハム、イサク、ヤコブに誓ひしごとく今日なんぢを立て己の民となし己みづから汝の神となりたまはん
that he may establish you today as his people, and that he may be your God, as he spoke to you and as he swore to your fathers, to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob.
14 我はただ汝らと而已此契約と誓とを結ぶにあらず
Neither do I make this covenant and this oath with you only,
15 今日此にてわれらの神ヱホバの前に我らとともにたちをる者ならびに今日われらとともに此にたち居ざる者ともこれを結ぶなり
but with those who stand here with us today before the LORD our God, and also with those who are not here with us today
16 我らは如何にエジプトの地に住をりしか如何に國々を通り來りしか汝らこれを知り
(for you know how we lived in the land of Egypt, and how we came through the middle of the nations through which you passed;
17 汝らはまた木石金銀にて造れる憎むべき物および偶像のその國々にあるを見たり
and you have seen their abominations and their idols of wood, stone, silver, and gold, which were amongst them);
18 然ば汝らの中に今日その心に我らの神ヱホバを離れて其等の國々の神に往て事ふる男女宗族支派などあるべからず又なんぢらの中に葶藶または茵蔯を生ずる根あるべからず
lest there should be amongst you man, woman, family, or tribe whose heart turns away today from the LORD our God, to go to serve the gods of those nations; lest there should be amongst you a root that produces bitter poison;
19 斯る人はこの呪詛の言を聞もその心に自ら幸福なりと思ひて言ん我はわが心を剛愎にして事をなすも尚平安なり終には酔飽る者をもて渇ける者を除くにいたらんと
and it happen, when he hears the words of this curse, that he bless himself in his heart, saying, “I shall have peace, though I walk in the stubbornness of my heart,” to destroy the moist with the dry.
20 是のごとき人はヱホバかならず之を赦したまはじ還てヱホバの忿怒と嫉妬の火これが上に燃えまたこの書にしるしたる災禍みなその身に加はらんヱホバつひにその人の名を天が下より抹さりたまふべし
The LORD will not pardon him, but then the LORD’s anger and his jealousy will smoke against that man, and all the curse that is written in this book will fall on him, and the LORD will blot out his name from under the sky.
21 ヱホバすなはちイスラエルの諸の支派の中よりその人を分ちてこれに災禍を下しこの律法の書にしるしたる契約中の諸の呪詛のごとくしたまはん
The LORD will set him apart for evil out of all the tribes of Israel, according to all the curses of the covenant written in this book of the law.
22 汝等の後に起る汝らの子孫の代の人および遠き國より來る客旅この地の災禍を見またヱホバがこの地に流行せたまふ疾病を見て言ところあらん
The generation to come—your children who will rise up after you, and the foreigner who will come from a far land—will say, when they see the plagues of that land, and the sicknesses with which the LORD has made it sick,
23 即ち彼ら見るにその全地は硫黄となり鹽となり且燒土となりて種も蒔れず產する所もなく何の草もその上に生せずして彼の昔ヱホバがその震怒と忿恨とをもて毀ちたましソドム、ゴモラ、アデマ、ゼポイムの毀たれたると同じかるべければ
that all of its land is sulphur, salt, and burning, that it is not sown, doesn’t produce, nor does any grass grow in it, like the overthrow of Sodom, Gomorrah, Admah, and Zeboiim, which the LORD overthrew in his anger, and in his wrath.
24 彼らも國々の人もみな言んヱホバ何とて斯この地になしたるやこの烈しき大なる震怒は何事ぞやと
Even all the nations will say, “Why has the LORD done this to this land? What does the heat of this great anger mean?”
25 その時人應へて曰ん彼らはその先祖たちの神ヱホバがエジプトの地より彼らを導きいだして彼らと結びたるその契約を棄て
Then men will say, “Because they abandoned the covenant of the LORD, the God of their fathers, which he made with them when he brought them out of the land of Egypt,
26 往て己の識ずまた授らざる他の神々に事へてこれを拝みたるが故なり
and went and served other gods and worshipped them, gods that they didn’t know and that he had not given to them.
27 是をもてヱホバこの地にむかひて震怒を發しこの書にしるしたる諸の災禍をこれに下し
Therefore the LORD’s anger burnt against this land, to bring on it all the curses that are written in this book.
28 而してヱホバ震怒と忿恨と大なる憤怨をもて彼らをこの地より抜とりてこれを他の國に投やれりその状今日のごとし
The LORD rooted them out of their land in anger, in wrath, and in great indignation, and thrust them into another land, as it is today.”
29 隠微たる事は我らの神ヱホバに屬する者なりまた顯露されたる事は我らと我らの子孫に屬し我らをしてこの律法の諸の言を行はしむる者なり
The secret things belong to the LORD our God; but the things that are revealed belong to us and to our children forever, that we may do all the words of this law.
