< 出エジプト記 10 >

1 爰にヱホバ、モーセにいひたまひけるはパロの所に入れ我かれの心とその臣下の心を剛硬にせり是はわが此等の徴を彼等の中に示さんため
The LORD said to Moses, “Go in to Pharaoh, for I have hardened his heart and the heart of his servants, that I may show these my signs amongst them;
2 又なんぢをして吾がエジプトにて行ひし事等すなはち吾がエジプトの中にてなしたる徴をなんぢの子となんぢの子の子の耳に語らしめんためなり斯して汝等わがヱホバなるを知べし
and that you may tell in the hearing of your son, and of your son’s son, what things I have done to Egypt, and my signs which I have done amongst them; that you may know that I am the LORD.”
3 モーセとアロン、パロの所にいりて彼にいひけるはヘブル人の神ヱホバかく言たまふ何時まで汝は我に降ることを拒むや我民をさらしめて我に事ふることをえせしめよ
Moses and Aaron went in to Pharaoh, and said to him, “This is what the LORD, the God of the Hebrews, says: ‘How long will you refuse to humble yourself before me? Let my people go, that they may serve me.
4 汝もしわが民を去しむることを拒まば明日我蝗をなんぢの境に入しめん
Or else, if you refuse to let my people go, behold, tomorrow I will bring locusts into your country,
5 蝗地の面を蔽て人地を見るあたはざるべし蝗かの免かれてなんぢに遺れる者すなはち雹に打のこされたる者を食ひ野に汝らのために生る諸の樹をくらはん
and they shall cover the surface of the earth, so that one won’t be able to see the earth. They shall eat the residue of that which has escaped, which remains to you from the hail, and shall eat every tree which grows for you out of the field.
6 又なんぢの家となんぢの臣下の家々および凡のエジプト人の家に滿べし是はなんぢの父となんぢの父の父が世にいでしより今日にいたるまで未だ嘗て見ざるものなりと斯て彼身をめぐらしてパロの所よりいでたり
Your houses shall be filled, and the houses of all your servants, and the houses of all the Egyptians, as neither your fathers nor your fathers’ fathers have seen, since the day that they were on the earth to this day.’” He turned, and went out from Pharaoh.
7 時にパロの臣下パロにいひけるは何時まで此人われらの羂となるや人々を去しめてその神ヱホバに事ふることをえせしめよ汝なほエジプトの滅ぶるを知ざるやと
Pharaoh’s servants said to him, “How long will this man be a snare to us? Let the men go, that they may serve the LORD, their God. Don’t you yet know that Egypt is destroyed?”
8 是をもてモーセとアロンふたたび召れてパロの許にいたるにパロかれらにいふ往てなんぢらの神ヱホバに事よ但し往く者は誰と誰なるや
Moses and Aaron were brought again to Pharaoh, and he said to them, “Go, serve the LORD your God; but who are those who will go?”
9 モーセいひけるは我等は幼者をも老者をも子息をも息女をも挈へて往き羊をも牛をもたづさへて往くべし其は我らヱホバの祭禮をなさんとすればなり
Moses said, “We will go with our young and with our old. We will go with our sons and with our daughters, with our flocks and with our herds; for we must hold a feast to the LORD.”
10 パロかれらにいひけるは我汝等となんぢらの子等を去しむる時はヱホバなんぢらと偕に在れ愼めよ惡き事なんぢらの面のまへにあり
He said to them, “The LORD be with you if I let you go with your little ones! See, evil is clearly before your faces.
11 そは宜からず汝ら男子のみ往てヱホバに事よ是なんぢらが求むるところなりと彼等つひにパロの前より逐いださる
Not so! Go now you who are men, and serve the LORD; for that is what you desire!” Then they were driven out from Pharaoh’s presence.
12 爰にヱホバ、モーセにいひたまひけるは汝の手をエジプトの地のうへに舒て蝗をエジプトの國にのぞませて彼の雹が打殘したる地の諸の蔬を悉く食しめよ
The LORD said to Moses, “Stretch out your hand over the land of Egypt for the locusts, that they may come up on the land of Egypt, and eat every herb of the land, even all that the hail has left.”
13 モーセすなはちエジプトの地の上に其杖をのべければヱホバ東風をおこしてその一日一夜地にふかしめたまひしが東風朝におよびて蝗を吹きたりて
Moses stretched out his rod over the land of Egypt, and the LORD brought an east wind on the land all that day, and all night; and when it was morning, the east wind brought the locusts.
14 蝗エジプト全國にのぞみエジプトの四方の境に居て害をなすこと太甚し是より先には斯のごとき蝗なかりし是より後にもあらざるべし
The locusts went up over all the land of Egypt, and rested in all the borders of Egypt. They were very grievous. Before them there were no such locusts as they, nor will there ever be again.
15 蝗全國の上を蔽ひければ國暗くなりぬ而して蝗地の諸の蔬および雹の打殘せし樹の菓を食ひたればエジプト全國に於て樹にも田圃の蔬にも靑き者とてはのこらざりき
For they covered the surface of the whole earth, so that the land was darkened, and they ate every herb of the land, and all the fruit of the trees which the hail had left. There remained nothing green, either tree or herb of the field, through all the land of Egypt.
16 是をもてパロ急ぎモーセとアロンを召て言ふ 我なんちらの神ヱホバと汝等とにむかひて罪ををかせり
Then Pharaoh called for Moses and Aaron in haste, and he said, “I have sinned against the LORD your God, and against you.
17 然ば請ふ今一次のみ吾罪を宥してなんぢらの神ヱホバに願ひ唯此死を我より取はなさしめよと
Now therefore please forgive my sin again, and pray to the LORD your God, that he may also take away from me this death.”
18 彼すなはちパロの所より出てヱホバにねがひければ
Moses went out from Pharaoh, and prayed to the LORD.
19 ヱホバはなはだ強き西風を吹めぐらせて蝗を吹はらはしめ之を紅海に驅いれたまひてエジプトの四方の境に蝗ひとつも遺らざるにいたれり
The LORD sent an exceedingly strong west wind, which took up the locusts, and drove them into the Red Sea. There remained not one locust in all the borders of Egypt.
20 然れどもヱホバ、パロの心を剛愎にしたまひたればイスラエルの子孫をさらしめざりき
But the LORD hardened Pharaoh’s heart, and he didn’t let the children of Israel go.
21 ヱホバまたモーセにいひたまひけるは天にむかひて汝の手を舒べエジプトの國に黑暗を起すべし其暗黑は摸るべきなりと
The LORD said to Moses, “Stretch out your hand towards the sky, that there may be darkness over the land of Egypt, even darkness which may be felt.”
22 モーセすなはち天にむかひて手を舒ければ稠密黑暗三日のあひだエジプト全國にありて
Moses stretched out his hand towards the sky, and there was a thick darkness in all the land of Egypt for three days.
23 三日の間は人々たがひに相見るあたはず又おのれの處より起ものなかりき然どイスラエルの子孫の居處には皆光ありき
They didn’t see one another, and nobody rose from his place for three days; but all the children of Israel had light in their dwellings.
24 是に於てパロ、モーセを呼ていひけるは汝等ゆきてヱホバに事よ唯なんぢらの羊と牛を留めおくべし汝らの子女も亦なんぢらとともに往べし
Pharaoh called to Moses, and said, “Go, serve the LORD. Only let your flocks and your herds stay behind. Let your little ones also go with you.”
25 モーセいひけるは汝また我等の神ヱホバに献ぐべき犠牲と燔祭の物をも我儕に與ふべきなり
Moses said, “You must also give into our hand sacrifices and burnt offerings, that we may sacrifice to the LORD our God.
26 われらの家畜もわれらとともに往べし一蹄も後にのこすべからず其は我等その中を取てわれらの神ヱホバに事べきが故なりまたわれら彼處にいたるまでは何をもてヱホバに事ふべきかを知ざればなりと
Our livestock also shall go with us. Not a hoof shall be left behind, for of it we must take to serve the LORD our God; and we don’t know with what we must serve the LORD, until we come there.”
27 然れどもヱホバ、パロの心を剛愎にしたまひたればパロかれらをさらしむることを肯ぜざりき
But the LORD hardened Pharaoh’s heart, and he wouldn’t let them go.
28 すなはちパロ、モーセに言ふ我をはなれて去よ自ら愼め重てわが面を見るなかれ汝わが面を見る日には死べし
Pharaoh said to him, “Get away from me! Be careful to see my face no more; for in the day you see my face you shall die!”
29 モーセいひけるは汝の言ふところは善し我重て復なんぢの面を見ざるべし
Moses said, “You have spoken well. I will see your face again no more.”
