出エジプト記 15

1 是に於てモーセおよびイスラエルの子孫この歌をヱホバに謡ふ云く我ヱホバを歌ひ頌ん彼は高らかに高くいますなり彼は馬とその乗者を海になげうちたまへり

Then Moses and the children of Israel sung this canticle to the Lord: and said: Let us sing to the Lord: for he is gloriously magnified, the horse and the rider he hath thrown into the sea.

2 わが力わが歌はヱホバなり彼はわが救拯となりたまへり彼はわが神なり我これを頌美ん彼はわが父の神なり我これを崇めん

The Lord is my strength and my praise, and he is become salvation to me: he is my God and I will glorify him: the God of my father, and I will exalt him.

3 ヱホバは軍人にして其名はヱホバなり

The Lord is as a man of war, Almighty is his name.

4 彼パロの戰車とその軍勢を海に投すてたまふパロの勝れたる軍長等は紅海に沈めり

Pharao’s chariots and his army he hath cast into the sea: his chosen captains are drowned in the Red Sea.

5 大水かれらを掩ひて彼等石のごとくに淵の底に下る

The depths have covered them, they are sunk to the bottom like a stone.

6 ヱホバよ汝の右の手は力をもて榮光をあらはすヱホバよ汝の右の手は敵を碎く

Thy right hand, O Lord, is magnified in strength: thy right hand, O Lord, hath slain the enemy.

7 汝の大なる榮光をもて汝は汝にたち逆ふ者を滅したまふ汝怒を發すれば彼等は藁のごとくに焚つくさる

And in the multitude of they glory thou hast put down thy adversaries: thou hast sent thy wrath, which hath devoured them like stubble.

8 汝の鼻の息によりて水積かさなり浪堅く立て岸のごとくに成り大水海の中に凝る

And with the blast of thy anger the waters were gathered together: the flowing water stood, the depth were gathered together in the midst of the sea.

9 敵は言ふ我追て追つき掠取物を分たん我かれらに因てわが心を飽しめん我劍を抜んわが手かれらを亡さんと

The enemy said: I will pursue and overtake, I will divide the spoils, my soul shall have its fill: I will draw my sword, my hand shall slay them.

10 汝氣を吹たまへば海かれらを覆ひて彼等は猛烈き水に鉛のごとくに沈めり

Thy wind blew and the sea covered them: they sunk as lead in the mighty waters.

11 ヱホバよ神の中に誰か汝に如ものあらん誰か汝のごとく聖して榮あり讃べくして威ありて奇事を行なふ者あらんや

Who is like to thee, among the strong, O Lord? who is like to thee, glorious in holiness, terrible and praiseworthy, doing wonders?

12 汝その右の手を伸たまへば地かれらを呑む

Thou stretchedst forth thy hand, and the earth swallowed them.

13 汝はその贖ひし民を恩惠をもて導き汝の力をもて彼等を汝の聖き居所に引たまふ

In thy mercy thou hast been a leader to the people which thou hast redeemed: and in thy strength thou hast carried them to thy holy habitation.

14 國々の民聞て慄へペリシテに住む者畏懼を懐く

Nations rose up, and were angry: sorrows took hold on the inhabitants of Philisthiim.

15 エドムの君等駭きモアブの剛者戰慄くカナンに住る者みな消うせん

Then were the princes of Edom troubled, trembling seized on the stout men of Moab: all the inhabitants of Chanaan became stiff.

16 畏懼と戰慄かれらに及ぶ汝の腕の大なるがために彼らは石のごとくに默然たりヱホバよ汝の民の通り過るまで汝の買たまひし民の通り過るまで然るべし

Let fear and dread fall upon them, in the greatness of thy arm: let them become unmoveable as a stone, until thy people, O Lord, pass by: until this thy people pass by, which thou hast possessed.

17 汝民を導きてこれを汝の產業の山に植たまはんヱホバよ是すなはち汝の居所とせんとて汝の設けたまひし者なり主よ是汝の手の建たる聖所なり

Thou shalt bring them in, and plant them in the mountain of thy inheritance, in thy most firm habitation which thou hast made, O Lord; thy sanctuary, O Lord, which thy hands have established.

18 ヱホバは世々限なく王たるべし

The Lord shall reign for ever and ever.

19 斯パロの馬その車および騎兵とともに海にいりしにヱホバ海の水を彼等の上に流れ還らしめたまひしがイスラエルの子孫は海の中にありて旱地を通れり

For Pharao went in on horseback with his chariots and horsemen into the sea: and the Lord brought back upon them the waters of the sea: but the children of Israel walked on dry ground in the midst thereof.

20 時にアロンの姉なる預言者ミリアム鼗を手にとるに婦等みな彼にしたがひて出で鼗をとり且踊る

So Mary the prophetess, the sister of Aaron, took a timbrel in her hand: and all the women went forth after her with timbrels and with dances:

21 ミリアムすなはち彼等に和へて言ふ汝等ヱホバを歌ひ頌よ彼は高らかに高くいますなり彼は馬とその乗者を海に擲ちたまへりと

And she began the song to them, saying: Let us sing to the Lord, for he is gloriously magnified, the horse and his rider he hath thrown into the sea.

22 斯てモーセ紅海よりイスラエルを導きてシユルの曠野にいり曠野に三日歩みたりしが水を得ざりき

And Moses brought Israel from the Red Sea, and they went forth into the wilderness of Sur: and they marched three days through the wilderness, and found no water.

23 彼ら遂にメラにいたりしがメラの水苦くして飮ことを得ざりき是をもて其名はメラ(苦)と呼る

And they came into Mara, and they could not drink the waters of Mara, because they were bitter: whereupon he gave a name also agreeable to the place, calling it Mara, that is, bitterness.

24 是に於て民モーセにむかひて呟き我儕何を飮んかと言ければ

And the people murmured against Moses, saying: What shall we drink?

25 モーセ、ヱホバに呼はりしにヱホバこれに一本の木を示したまひたれば即ちこれを水に投いれしに水甘くなれり彼處にてヱホバ民のために法度と法律をたてたまひ彼處にてこれを試みて

But he cried to the Lord, and he shewed him a tree, which when he had cast into the waters, they were turned into sweetness. There he appointed him ordinances, and judgments, and there he proved him,

26 言たまはく汝もし善く汝の神ヱホバの聲に聽したがひヱホバの口に善と見ることを爲しその誡命に耳を傾けその諸の法度を守ば我わがエジプト人に加へしところのその疾病を一も汝に加へざるべし其は我はヱホバにして汝を醫す者なればなりと

Saying: If thou wilt hear the voice of the Lord thy God, and do what is right before him, and obey his commandments, and keep all his precepts, none of the evils that I laid upon Egypt, will I bring upon thee: for I am the Lord thy healer.

27 斯て彼等エリムに至れり其處に水の井十二棕櫚七十本あり彼處にて彼等水の傍に幕張す

And the children of Israel came into Elim, where there were twelve fountains of water, and seventy palm trees: and they encamped by the waters.
