< 出エジプト記 13 >
And YHWH speaks to Moses, saying,
2 人と畜とを論ず凡てイスラエルの子孫の中の始て生れたる首生をば皆聖別て我に歸せしむべし是わが所屬なればなり
“Sanctify to Me every firstborn, opening any womb among the sons of Israel, among man and among beast; it [is] Mine.”
3 モーセ民にいひけるは汝等エジプトを出で奴隸たる家を出るこの日を誌えよヱホバ能ある手をもて汝等を此より導きいだしたまへばなり酵いれたるパンを食ふべからず
And Moses says to the people, “Remember this day [in] which you have gone out from Egypt, from the house of servants, for by strength of hand YHWH has brought you out from this, and anything fermented is not eaten;
you are going out today, in the month of Abib.
5 ヱホバ汝を導きてカナン人ヘテ人アモリ人ヒビ人エブス人の地すなはちその汝にあたへんと汝の先祖たちに誓ひたまひし彼乳と蜜の流るる地に至らしめたまはん時なんぢ此月に是禮式を守るべし
And it has been, when YHWH brings you to the land of the Canaanite, and of the Hittite, and of the Amorite, and of the Hivite, and of the Jebusite, which He has sworn to your fathers to give to you, a land flowing with milk and honey, that you have done this service in this month.
6 七日の間なんぢ酵いれぬパンを食ひ第七日にヱホバの節筵をなすべし
Seven days you eat unleavened things, and in the seventh day [is] a celebration to YHWH;
7 酵いれぬパンを七日くらふべし酵いれたるパンを汝の所におくなかれ又汝の境の中にて汝の許にパン酵をおくなかれ
unleavened things are eaten the seven days, and anything fermented is not seen with you; indeed, leaven is not seen with you in all your border.
8 汝その日に汝の子に示して言べし是は吾がエジプトより出る時にヱホバの我に爲したまひし事のためなりと
And you have declared to your son in that day, saying, [It is] because of what YHWH did to me, in my going out from Egypt,
9 斯是をなんぢの手におきて記號となし汝の目の間におきて記號となしてヱホバの法律を汝の口に在しむべし其はヱホバ能ある手をもて汝をエジプトより導きいだしたまへばなり
and it has been to you for a sign on your hand, and for a memorial between your eyes, so that the Law of YHWH is in your mouth, for by a strong hand YHWH has brought you out from Egypt;
10 是故に年々その期にいたりてこの例をまもるべし
and you have kept this statute at its appointed time from days to days.
11 ヱホバ汝となんぢの先祖等に誓ひたまひしごとく汝をカナン人の地にみちびきて之を汝に與へたまはん時
And it has been, when YHWH brings you to the land of the Canaanite as He has sworn to you and to your fathers, and has given it to you,
12 汝凡て始て生れたる者及び汝の有る畜の初生を悉く分ちてヱホバに歸せしむべし男牡はヱホバの所屬なるべし
that you have caused everyone opening a womb to pass over to YHWH, and every firstling—the increase of beasts which you have: the males [are] YHWH’s.
13 又驢馬の初子は皆羔羊をもて贖ふべしもし贖はずばその頸を折るべし汝の子等の中の長子なる人はみな贖ふべし
And every firstling of a donkey you ransom with a lamb, and if you do not ransom [it], then you have beheaded it; and you ransom every firstborn of man among your sons.
14 後に汝の子汝に問て是は何なると言ばこれに言べしヱホバ能ある手をもて我等をエジプトより出し奴隸たりし家より出したまへり
And it has been, when your son asks you hereafter, saying, What [is] this? That you have said to him, By strength of hand YHWH has brought us out from Egypt, from a house of servants;
15 當時パロ剛愎にして我等を去しめざりしかばヱホバ、エジプトの國の中の長子たる者を人の長子より畜の初生まで盡く殺したまへり是故に始めて生れし牡を盡くヱホバに犠牲に献ぐ但しわが子等の中の長子は之を贖ふなり
indeed, it comes to pass, when Pharaoh has been pained to send us away, that YHWH slays every firstborn in the land of Egypt, from the firstborn of man even to the firstborn of beast; therefore I am sacrificing to YHWH all opening a womb who [are] males, and I ransom every firstborn of my sons;
16 是をなんぢの手におきて號となし汝の目の間におきて誌となすべしヱホバ能ある手をもて我等をエジプトより導きいだしたまひたればなりと
and it has been for a token on your hand, and for frontlets between your eyes, for by strength of hand YHWH has brought us out of Egypt.”
17 偖パロ民をさらしめし時ペリシテ人の地は近かりけれども神彼等をみちびきて其地を通りたまはざりき其は民戰爭を見ば悔てエジプトに歸るならんと神おもひたまひたればなり
And it comes to pass in Pharaoh’s sending the people away, that God has not led them the way of the land of the Philistines, for it [is] near; for God said, “Lest the people sigh in their seeing war, and have turned back toward Egypt”;
18 神紅海の曠野の道より民を導きたまふイスラエルの子孫行伍をたててエジプトの國より出づ
and God turns around the people the way of the wilderness of the Red Sea, and the sons of Israel have gone up by fifties from the land of Egypt.
19 其時モーセはヨセフの骨を携ふ是はヨセフ神かならず汝らを眷みたまふべければ汝らわが骨を此より携へ出づべしといひてイスラエルの子孫を固く誓せたればなり
And Moses takes the bones of Joseph with him, for he certainly caused the sons of Israel to swear, saying, “God certainly inspects you, and you have brought up my bones from this [place] with you.”
20 斯てかれらスコテより進みて曠野の端なるエタム比幕張す
And they journey from Succoth, and encamp in Etham at the extremity of the wilderness,
21 ヱホバかれらの前に往たまひ晝は雲の柱をもてかれらを導き夜は火の柱をもて彼らを照して晝夜往すすましめたまふ
and YHWH is going before them by day in a pillar of a cloud, to lead them in the way, and by night in a pillar of fire, to give light to them, to go by day and by night;
22 民の前に晝は雲の柱を除きたまはず夜は火の柱をのぞきたまはず
He does not remove the pillar of the cloud by day, and the pillar of the fire by night, [from] before the people.
