申命記 8
1 我が今日なんぢに命ずるところの諸の誡命を汝ら謹んで行ふべし然せば汝ら生ることを得かつ殖増しヱホバの汝の先祖等に誓たまひし地に入てこれを產業となすことを得ん
You shall observe to do all the commandments which I command you today, that you may live, and multiply, and go in and possess the land which the LORD swore to your fathers.
2 汝記念べし汝の神ヱホバこの四十年の間汝をして曠野の路に歩ましめたまへり是汝を苦しめて汝を試驗み汝の心の如何なるか汝がその誡命を守るや否やを知んためなりき
You shall remember all the way which the LORD your God has led you these forty years in the wilderness, that he might humble you, to test you, to know what was in your heart, whether you would keep his commandments or not.
3 即ち汝を苦しめ汝を饑しめまた汝も知ず汝の先祖等も知ざるところのマナを汝らに食はせたまへり是人はパン而已にて生る者にあらず人はヱホバの口より出る言によりて生る者なりと汝に知しめんが爲なり
He humbled you, allowed you to be hungry, and fed you with manna, which you didn’t know, neither did your fathers know, that he might teach you that man does not live by bread only, but man lives by every word that proceeds out of the LORD’s mouth.
4 この四十年のあひだ汝の衣服は古びて朽ず汝の足は腫ざりし
Your clothing didn’t grow old on you, neither did your foot swell, these forty years.
5 汝また心に念ふべし人のその子を懲戒ごとく汝の神ヱホバも汝を懲戒たまふなり
You shall consider in your heart that as a man disciplines his son, so the LORD your God disciplines you.
6 汝の神ヱホバの誡命を守りその道にあゆみてこれを畏るべし
You shall keep the commandments of the LORD your God, to walk in his ways, and to fear him.
7 汝の神ヱホバ汝をして美地に到らしめたまふ是は谷にも山にも水の流あり泉あり瀦水ある地
For the LORD your God brings you into a good land, a land of brooks of water, of springs, and underground water flowing into valleys and hills;
8 小麥 大麥 葡萄 無花果および石榴ある地油 橄欖および蜜のある地
a land of wheat, barley, vines, fig trees, and pomegranates; a land of olive trees and honey;
9 汝の食ふ食物に缺るところなく汝に何も乏しきところあらざる地なりその地の石はすなはち鐵その山よりは銅を掘とるべし
a land in which you shall eat bread without scarcity, you shall not lack anything in it; a land whose stones are iron, and out of whose hills you may dig copper.
10 汝は食ひて飽き汝の神ヱホバにその美地を己にたまひし事を謝すべし
You shall eat and be full, and you shall bless the LORD your God for the good land which he has given you.
11 汝わが今日なんぢに命ずるヱホバの誡命と律法と法度とを守らずして汝の神ヱホバを忘るるにいたらざるやう愼めよ
Beware lest you forget the LORD your God, in not keeping his commandments, his ordinances, and his statutes, which I command you today;
12 汝食ひて飽き美しき家を建て住ふに至り
lest, when you have eaten and are full, and have built fine houses and lived in them;
13 また汝の牛羊殖増し汝の金銀殖増し汝の所有みな殖増にいたらん時に
and when your herds and your flocks multiply, and your silver and your gold is multiplied, and all that you have is multiplied;
14 恐くは汝心に驕りて汝の神ヱホバを忘れんヱホバは汝をエジプトの地奴隸たる家より導き出し
then your heart might be lifted up, and you forget the LORD your God, who brought you out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of bondage;
15 汝をみちびきて彼の大にして畏るべき曠野すなはち蛇火の蛇蠍などありて水あらざる乾ける地を通り汝らのために堅き磐の中より水を出し
who led you through the great and terrible wilderness, with venomous snakes and scorpions, and thirsty ground where there was no water; who poured water for you out of the rock of flint;
16 汝の先祖等の知ざるマナを曠野にて汝に食せたまへり是みな汝を苦しめ汝を試みて終に福祉を汝にたまはんとてなりき
who fed you in the wilderness with manna, which your fathers didn’t know, that he might humble you, and that he might prove you, to do you good at your latter end;
17 汝我力とわが手の動作によりて我この資財を得たりと心に謂なかれ
and lest you say in your heart, “My power and the might of my hand has gotten me this wealth.”
18 汝の神ヱホバを憶えよ其はヱホバ汝に資財を得の力をたまふなればなり斯したまふは汝の先祖等に誓し契約を今日の如く行はんとてなり
But you shall remember the LORD your God, for it is he who gives you power to get wealth, that he may establish his covenant which he swore to your fathers, as it is today.
19 汝もし汝の神ヱホバを忘れ果て他の神々に從がひ之に事へこれを拝むことを爲ば我今日汝らに證をなす汝らはかならず滅亡ん
It shall be, if you shall forget the LORD your God, and walk after other gods, and serve them and worship them, I testify against you today that you shall surely perish.
20 ヱホバの汝らの前に滅ぼしたまひし國々の民のごとく汝らも滅亡べし是なんぢらの神ヱホバの聲に汝らしたがはざればなり
As the nations that the LORD makes to perish before you, so you shall perish, because you wouldn’t listen to the LORD your God’s voice.
