出エジプト記 19
1 イスラエルの子孫エジプトの地を出て後第三月にいたりて其日にシナイの曠野に至る
In the third month after the departure of the children of Israel out of the land of Egypt, the same day came they [into] the wilderness of Sinai:
2 即ちかれらレピデムを出たちてシナイの曠野にいたり曠野に幕を張り彼處にてイスラエルは山の前に營を設けたり
they departed from Rephidim, and came [into] the wilderness of Sinai, and encamped in the wilderness; and Israel encamped there before the mountain.
3 爰にモーセ登て神に詣るにヱホバ山より彼を呼て言たまはく汝かくヤコブの家に言ひイスラエルの子孫に告べし
And Moses went up to God, and Jehovah called to him out of the mountain, saying, Thus shalt thou say to the house of Jacob, and tell the children of Israel:
4 汝らはエジプト人に我がなしたるところの事を見我が鷲の翼をのべて汝らを負て我にいたらしめしを見たり
Ye have seen what I have done to the Egyptians, and [how] I have borne you on eagles' wings and brought you to myself.
5 然ば汝等もし善く我が言を聽きわが契約を守らば汝等は諸の民に愈りてわが寶となるべし全地はわが所有なればなり
And now, if ye will hearken to my voice indeed and keep my covenant, then shall ye be my own possession out of all the peoples — for all the earth is mine —
6 汝等は我に對して祭司の國となり聖き民となるべし是等の言語を汝イスラエルの子孫に告べし
and ye shall be to me a kingdom of priests, and a holy nation. These are the words which thou shalt speak to the children of Israel.
7 是に於てモーセ來りて民の長老等を呼びヱホバの己に命じたまひし言を盡くその前に陳たれば
And Moses came and called the elders of the people, and laid before them all these words which Jehovah had commanded him.
8 民皆等く應へて言けるはヱホバの言たまひし所は皆われら之を爲べしとモーセすなはち民の言をヱホバに告ぐ
And all the people answered together, and said, All that Jehovah has spoken will we do! And Moses brought the words of the people back to Jehovah.
9 ヱホバ、モーセに言たまひけるは觀よ我密雲の中にをりて汝に臨む是民をして我が汝と語るを聞しめて汝を永く信ぜしめんがためなりとモーセ民の言をヱホバに告たり
And Jehovah said to Moses, Lo, I will come to thee in the cloud's thick darkness, that the people may hear when I speak with thee, and believe thee also for ever. And Moses told the words of the people to Jehovah.
10 ヱホバ、モーセに言たまひけるは汝民の所に往て今日明日これを聖め之にその衣服を澣せ
And Jehovah said to Moses, Go to the people, and hallow them to-day and to-morrow, and let them wash their clothes;
11 準備をなして三日を待て其は第三日にヱホバ全體の民の目の前にてシナイ山に降ればなり
and let them be ready for the third day; for on the third day Jehovah will come down before the eyes of all the people on mount Sinai.
12 汝民のために四周に境界を設けて言べし汝等愼んで山に登るなかれその境界に捫るべからず山に捫る者はかならず殺さるべし
And set bounds round about the people, saying, Take heed to yourselves, [not] to go up unto the mountain nor touch the border of it: whatever toucheth the mountain shall certainly be put to death:
13 手を之に觸べからず其者はかならす石にて撃ころされ或は射ころさるべし獣と人とを言ず生ることを得じ喇叭を長く吹鳴さば人々山に上るべしと
not a hand shall touch it, but it shall certainly be stoned, or shot through; whether it be a beast or a man, it shall not live. When the long drawn note of the trumpet soundeth, they shall come up to the mountain.
14 モーセすなはち山を下り民にいたりて民を聖め民その衣服を濯ふ
And Moses came down from the mountain to the people, and hallowed the people; and they washed their clothes.
15 モーセ民に言けるは準備をなして三日を待て婦人に近づくべからず
And he said to the people, Be ready for the third day; do not come near [your] wives.
16 かくて三日の朝にいたりて雷と電および密雲山の上にあり又喇叭の聲ありて甚だ高かり營にある民みな震ふ
And it came to pass on the third day, when it was morning, that there were thunders and lightnings and a heavy cloud on the mountain, and the sound of the trumpet exceeding loud; and the whole people that was in the camp trembled.
17 モーセ營より民を引いでて神に會しむ民山の麓に立に
And Moses brought the people out of the camp to meet with God; and they stood at the foot of the mountain.
18 シナイ山都て煙を出せりヱホバ火の中にありてその上に下りたまへばなりその煙竃の煙のごとく立のぼり山すべて震ふ
And the whole of mount Sinai smoked, because Jehovah descended on it in fire; and its smoke ascended as the smoke of a furnace; and the whole mountain shook greatly.
19 喇叭の聲彌高くなりゆきてばげしくなりける時モーセ言を出すに神聲をもて應へたまふ
And the sound of the trumpet increased and became exceeding loud; Moses spoke, and God answered him by a voice.
20 ヱホバ、シナイ山に下りその山の頂上にいまし而してヱホバ山の頂上にモーセを召たまひければモーセ上れり
And Jehovah came down on mount Sinai, on the top of the mountain; and Jehovah called Moses to the top of the mountain, and Moses went up.
21 ヱホバ、モーセに言たまひけるは下りて民を警めよ恐らくは民推破りてヱホバに來りて見んとし多の者死るにいたらん
And Jehovah said to Moses, Go down, testify to the people that they break not through to Jehovah to gaze, and many of them perish.
22 又ヱホバに近くところの祭司等にその身を潔めしめよ恐くはヱホバかれらを撃ん
And the priests also, who come near to Jehovah, shall hallow themselves, lest Jehovah break forth on them.
23 モーセ、ヱホバに言けるは民はシナイ山に得のぼらじ其は汝われらを警めて山の四周に境界をたて山を聖めよと言たまひたればなり
And Moses said to Jehovah, The people cannot come up to mount Sinai; for thou hast testified to us, saying, Set bounds about the mountain, and hallow it.
24 ヱホバかれに言たまひけるは往け下れ而して汝とアロンともに上り來るべし但祭司等と民には推破りてにのぼりきたらしめざれ恐らくは我かれらを撃ん
And Jehovah said to him, Go, descend, and thou shalt come up, thou, and Aaron with thee; but the priests and the people shall not break through to go up to Jehovah, lest he break forth on them.
25 モーセ民にくだりゆきてこれに告たり
So Moses went down to the people, and told them.
