< 出エジプト記 14 >

1 茲にヱホバ、モーセに告ていひ給ひけるは
Now the LORD spoke to Moses, saying,
2 イスラエルの子孫に言て轉回てミグドルと海の間なるピハヒロテの前にあたりてバアルゼポンの前に幕を張しめよ其にむかひて海の傍に幕を張るべし
"Speak to the children of Israel, that they turn back and camp before Pi-hahiroth, between Migdol and the sea, before Baal Zephon. You shall camp opposite it by the sea.
3 パロ、イスラエルの子孫の事をかたりて彼等はその地に迷ひをりて曠野に閉こめられたるならんといふべければなり
Pharaoh will say of the children of Israel, 'They are wandering in the land. The wilderness has boxed them in.'
4 我パロの心を剛愎にすべければパロ彼等の後を追はん我パロとその凡の軍勢に由て譽を得エジプト人をして吾ヱホバなるを知しめんと彼等すなはち斯なせり
And I will harden Pharaoh's heart, and he will pursue them. And I will gain glory because of Pharaoh and because of all his army, and the Egyptians shall know that I am the LORD." And they did so.
5 茲に民の逃さりたることエジプト王に聞えければパロとその臣下等民の事につきて心を變じて言ふ我等何て斯イスラエルを去しめて我に事ざらしむるがごとき事をなしたるやと
And when the king of Egypt was told that the people had fled, the heart of Pharaoh and his servants was turned against the people, and they said, "What is this we have done, that we have let Israel go from serving us?"
6 パロすなはちその車を備へ民を將て己にしたがはしめ
Then he made ready his chariot, and took his army with him;
7 撰抜の戰車六百兩にエジプトの諸の戰車および其の諸の軍長等を率ゐたり
and he took six hundred select chariots, and all the chariots of Egypt, and officers over all of them.
8 ヱホバ、エジプト王パロの心を剛愎にしたまひたれば彼イスラエルの子孫の後を追ふイスラエルの子孫は高らかなる手によりて出しなり
And the LORD hardened the heart of Pharaoh king of Egypt, and he pursued after the children of Israel; and the children of Israel were going out triumphantly.
9 エジプト人等パロの馬、車およびその騎兵と軍勢彼等の後を追てそのバアルゼポンの前なるピハヒロテの邊にて海の傍に幕を張るに追つけり
And the Egyptians pursued after them, all the horses and chariots of Pharaoh and his horsemen and his army, and overtook them camping by the sea, beside Pi-hahiroth, before Baal Zephon.
10 パロの近よりし時イスラエルの子孫目をあげて視しにエジプト人己の後に進み來りしかば痛く懼れたり是に於てイスラエルの子孫ヱホバに呼號り
When Pharaoh drew near, the children of Israel lifted up their eyes, and look, the Egyptians were marching after them, and they were very afraid. So the children of Israel cried out to the LORD.
11 且モーセに言けるはエジプトに墓のあらざるがために汝われらをたづさへいだして曠野に死しむるや何故に汝われらをエジプトより導き出して斯我らに爲や
And they said to Moses, "Was it because there were no graves in Egypt that you have taken us away to die in the wilderness? What have you done to us by bringing us out of Egypt?
12 我等がエジプトにて汝に告て我儕を棄おき我らをしてエジプト人に事しめよと言し言は是ならずや其は曠野にて死るよりもエジプト人に事るは善ればなり
Isn't this the word that we spoke to you in Egypt, saying, 'Leave us alone so that we may serve the Egyptians?' For it would have been better for us to serve the Egyptians than to die in the wilderness."
13 モーセ民にいひけるは汝ら懼るるなかれ立てヱホバが今日汝等のために爲たまはんところの救を見よ汝らが今日見たるエジプト人をば汝らかさねて復これを見ること絶てなかるべきなり
But Moses said to the people, "Do not be afraid, stand still, and see the salvation of God, which he will work for you today, for the Egyptians you see today, you will never, ever see again.
14 ヱホバ汝等のために戰ひたまはん汝等は靜りて居るべし
The LORD will fight for you, and you must be still."
15 時にヱホバ、モーセにいひたまひけるは汝なんぞ我に呼はるやイスラエルの子孫に言て進みゆかしめよ
Then the LORD said to Moses, "Why are you crying out to me? Tell the children of Israel to go forward.
16 汝杖を擧げ手を海の上に伸て之を分ちイスラエルの子孫をして海の中の乾ける所を往しめよ
And as for you, lift up your staff and stretch out your hand over the sea and divide it, and the children of Israel will go through the midst of the sea on dry ground.
17 我エジプト人の心を剛愎にすべければ彼等その後にしたがひて入るべし我かくしてパロとその諸の軍勢およびそ戰車と騎兵に囚て榮譽を得ん
And as for me, look, I am going to harden the hearts of the Egyptians so that they will go in after them, and I will receive glory over Pharaoh and all his army, his chariots and his horsemen.
18 我がパロとその戰車と騎兵とによりて榮譽をえん時エジプト人は我のヱホバなるを知ん
Then the Egyptians will know that I am the LORD, when I receive glory over Pharaoh, his chariots and his horsemen."
19 爰にイスラエルの陣營の前に行る神の使者移りてその後に行けり即ち雲の柱その前面をはなれて後に立ち
And the angel of God who was going in front of the camp of Israel moved and went behind them, and the pillar of cloud moved from in front of them and stood behind them.
20 エジプト人の陣營とイスラエル人の陣營の間に至りけるが彼がためには雲となり暗となり是がためには夜を照せり是をもて彼と是と夜の中に相近づかざりき
So it came between the camp of Egypt and the camp of Israel. Thus it was a cloud and darkness and it lit up the night so that the one did not come near the other all night.
21 モーセ手を海の上に伸ければヱホバ終夜強き東風をもて海を退かしめ海を陸地となしたまひて水遂に分れたり
Then Moses stretched out his hand over the sea, and the LORD pushed the sea back by a strong east wind all night, and made the sea into dry land, so the waters were divided.
22 イスラエルの子孫海の中の乾ける所を行くに水は彼等の右左に墻となれり
Then the children of Israel went into the midst of the sea on the dry ground, and the waters were a wall to them on their right and on their left.
23 エジプト人等パロの馬車、騎兵みなその後にしたがひて海の中に入る
And the Egyptians pursued and went in after them into the midst of the sea, all of Pharaoh's horses, his chariots, and his horsemen.
24 暁にヱホバ火と雲との柱の中よりエジプト人の軍勢を望みエジプト人の軍勢を惱まし
And it happened, in the morning watch, that the LORD looked down on the Egyptian camp through the pillar of fire and cloud and threw the camp into confusion.
25 其車の輪を脱して行に重くならしめたまひければエジプト人言ふ我儕イスラエルを離れて逃ん其はヱホバかれらのためにエジプト人と戰へばなりと
And he bound their chariot wheels so that they drove them with difficulty. And the Egyptians said, "Let's flee from before Israel, for the LORD fights for them against the Egypt."
26 時にヱホバ、モーセに言たまひける汝の手を海の上に伸て水をエジプト人とその戰車と騎兵の上に流れ反らしめよと
Then the LORD said to Moses, "Stretch out your hand over the sea, so that the waters may flow back on the Egyptians, on their chariots, and on their horsemen."
27 モーセすなはち手を海の上に伸けるに夜明におよびて海本の勢力にかへりたればエジプト人之に逆ひて逃たりしがヱホバ、エジプト人を海の中に擲ちたまへり
So Moses stretched out his hand over the sea, and the sea returned to its normal state at daybreak. Now the Egyptians were trying to escape from it, but the LORD shook off the Egyptians in the midst of the sea.
28 即ち水流反りて戰車と騎兵を覆ひイスラエルの後にしたがひて海にいりしパロの軍勢を悉く覆へり一人も遺れる者あらざりき
Then the waters returned and covered the chariots, the horsemen, the entire army of Pharaoh that had followed them into the sea. None of them survived.
29 然どイスラエルの子孫は海の中の乾ける所を歩みしが水はその右左に墻となれり
But the children of Israel walked on dry ground in the midst of the sea, and the waters were a wall to them on their right hand and on their left.
30 斯ヱホバこの日イスラエルをエジプト人の手より救ひたまへりイスラエルはエジプト人が海邊に死をるを見たり
Thus the LORD saved Israel that day from the power of the Egyptians, and Israel saw the Egyptians dead on the seashore.
31 イスラエルまたヱホバがエジプト人に爲たまひし大なる事を見たり是に於て民ヱホバを畏れヱホバとその僕モーセを信じたり
When Israel saw the great power which the LORD used against the Egyptians, then the people feared the LORD, and they believed God and his servant Moses.
