出エジプト記 8

1 ヱホバ、モーセに言たまひけるは汝パロに詣りて彼に言へヱホバかく言たまふ吾民を去しめて我に事ふることを得せしめよ

And the Lord said to Moses, Go in to Pharao, and thou shalt say to him, These things says the Lord: send forth my people, that they may serve me.

2 汝もし去しむることを拒まば我蛙をもて汝の四方の境を惱さん

And if thou wilt not send them forth, behold, I afflict all thy borders with frogs:

3 河に蛙むらがり上りきたりて汝の家にいり汝の寝室にいり汝の牀にのぼり汝の臣下の家にいり汝の民の所にいたり汝の竃におよび汝の搓鉢にいらん

and the river shall teem with frogs, and they shall go up and enter into thy houses, and into thy bed-chambers, and upon thy beds, and upon the houses of thy servants, and of thy people and on thy dough, and on thine ovens.

4 蛙なんぢの身にのぼり汝の民と汝の臣下の上にのぼるべし

And upon thee, and upon thy servants, and upon thy people, shall the frogs come up.

5 ヱホバ、モーセに言たまはく汝アロンに言へ汝杖をとりて手を流水の上に伸べ河々の上と池塘の上に伸て蛙をエジプトの地に上らしめよ

And the Lord said to Moses, Say to Aaron thy brother, Stretch forth with the hand thy rod over the rivers, and over the canals, and over the pools, and bring up the frogs.

6 アロン手をエジプトの水のうへに伸たれば蛙のぼりきたりてエジプトの地を蔽ふ

And Aaron stretched forth his hand over the waters of Egypt, and brought up the frogs: and the frog was brought up, and covered the land of Egypt.

7 法術士等もその秘術をもて斯おこなひ蛙をエジプトの地に上らしめたり

And the charmers of the Egyptians also did likewise with their sorceries, and brought up the frogs on the land of Egypt.

8 パロ、モーセとアロンを召て言けるはヱホバに願ひてこの蛙を我とわが民の所より取さらしめよ我この民を去しめてヱホバに犠牲をささぐることを得せしめん

And Pharao called Moses and Aaron, and said, Pray for me to the Lord, and let him take away the frogs from me and from my people; and I will send them away, and they shall sacrifice to the Lord.

9 モーセ、パロに言けるは我なんぢと汝の臣下と汝の民のために願ひて何時此蛙を汝と汝の家より絶さりて河にのみ止らしむべきや我に示せと

And Moses said to Pharao, Appoint me [a time] when I shall pray for thee, and for thy servants, and for thy people, to cause the frogs to disappear from thee, and from thy people, and from your houses, only in the river shall they be left behind.

10 彼明日といひければモーセ言ふ汝の言のごとくに爲し汝をして我らの神ヱホバのごとき者なきことを知しめん

And he said, On the morrow: he said therefore, As thou has said; that thou mayest know, that there is no other [God] but the Lord.

11 蛙汝と汝の家を離れ汝の臣下と汝の民を離れて河にのみ止るべしと

And the frogs shall be removed away from thee, and from your houses and from the villages, and from thy servants, and from thy people, only in the river they shall be left.

12 モーセとアロンすなはちパロを離れて出でモーセそのパロに至らしめたまひし蛙のためにヱホバに呼はりしに

And Moses and Aaron went forth from Pharao, and Moses cried to the Lord concerning the restriction of the frogs, as Pharao appointed him.

13 ヱホバ、モーセの言のごとくなしたまひて蛙家より村より田野より死亡たり

And the Lord did as Moses said, and the frogs died out of the houses, and out of the villages, and out of the fields.

14 茲にこれを攢むるに山をなし地臭くなりぬ

And they gathered them together in heaps, and the land stank.

15 然るにパロは嘘氣時あるを見てその心を頑固にして彼等に聽ことをせざりきヱホバの言たまひし如し

And when Pharao saw that there was relief, his heart was hardened, and he did not hearken to them, as the Lord spoke.

16 ヱホバ、モーセに言たまひけるは汝アロンに言へ汝の杖を伸べ地の塵を打てエジプト全國に蚤とならしめよと

And the Lord said to Moses, Say to Aaron, Stretch forth thy rod with thy hand and smite the dust of the earth; and there shall be lice both upon man, and upon quadrupeds, and in all the land of Egypt.

17 彼等斯なせり即ちアロン杖をとりて手を伸べ地の塵を撃けるに蚤となりて人と畜につけりエジプト全國において地の塵みな蚤となりぬ

So Aaron stretched out his rod with his hand, and smote the dust of the earth; and the lice were on men and on quadrupeds, and in all the dust of the earth there were lice.

18 法術士等その秘術をもて斯おこなひて蚤を出さんとしたりしが能はざりき蚤は人と畜に著く

And the charmers also did so with their sorceries, to bring forth the louse, and they could not. And the lice were both on the men and on the quadrupeds.

19 是において法術士等パロに言ふ是は神の指なりと然るにパロは心剛愎にして彼等に聽ざりきヱホバの言たまひし如し

So the charmers said to Pharao, This is the finger of God. But the heart of Pharao was hardened, and he hearkened not to them, as the Lord said.

20 ヱホバ、モーセに言たまはく汝朝早く起てパロの前に立て視よ彼は水に臨む汝彼に言へヱホバかく言たまふわが民を去しめて我に事ふることを得せしめよ

And the Lord said to Moses, Rise up early in the morning, and stand before Pharao: and behold, he will go forth to the water, and thou shalt say to him, These things says the Lord: Send away my people, that they may serve me in the wilderness.

21 汝もしわが民を去しめずば視よ我汝と汝の臣下と汝の民と汝の家とに蚋をおくらんエジプト人の家々には蚋充べし彼らの居るところの地も然らん

And if thou wilt not let my people go, behold, I send upon thee, and upon thy servants, and upon thy people, and upon your houses, the dog-fly; and the houses of the Egyptians shall be filled with the dog-fly, even throughout the land upon which they are.

22 その日に我わが民の居るゴセンの地を區別おきて其處に蚋あらしめじ是地の中にありて我のヱホバなることを汝が知んためなり

and I will distinguish marvellously in that day the land of Gesem, on which my people dwell, in which the dog-fly shall not be: that thou mayest know that I am the Lord the God of all the earth.

23 我わが民と汝の民の間に區別をたてん明日この徴あるべし

And I will put a difference between my people and thy people, and on the morrow shall this be on the land. And the Lord did thus.

24 ヱホバかく爲たまひたれば蚋おびただしく出來りてパロの家にいりその臣下の家にいりエジプト全國にたり蚋のために地害はる

And the dog-fly came in abundance into the houses of Pharao, and into the houses of his servants, and into all the land of Egypt; and the land was destroyed by the dog-fly.

25 是においてパロ、モーセとアロンを召ていひけるは汝等往て國の中にて汝らの神に犠牲を献げよ

And Pharao called Moses and Aaron, saying, Go and sacrifice to the Lord your God in the land.

26 モーセ言ふ然するは宜からず我等はエジプト人の崇拝む者を犠牲としてわれらの神ヱホバに献ぐべければなり我等もしエジプト人の崇拝む者をその目の前にて犠牲に献げなば彼等石にて我等を撃ざらんや

And Moses said, It cannot be so, for we shall sacrifice to the Lord our God the abominations of the Egyptians; for if we sacrifice the abominations of the Egyptians before them, we shall be stoned.

27 我等は三日路ほど曠野にいりて我らの神ヱホバに犠牲を献げその命じたまひしごとくせんとす

We will go a journey of three days into the wilderness, and we will sacrifice to the Lord our God, as the Lord said to us.

28 パロ言けるは我汝らを去しめて汝らの神ヱホバに曠野にて犠牲を献ぐることを得せしめん但餘に遠くは行べからず我ために祈れよ

And Pharao said, I [will] let you go, and do ye sacrifice to your God in the wilderness, but do not go very far away: pray then for me to the Lord.

29 モーセ言けるは視よ我汝をはなれて出づ我ヱホバに祈ん明日蚋パロとその臣下とその民を離れん第パロ再び偽をおこなひ民を去しめてヱホバに犠牲をささぐるを得せしめざるが如きことを爲ざれ

And Moses said, I then will go forth from thee and pray to God, and the dog-fly shall depart both from thy servants, and from thy people to-morrow. Do not thou, Pharao, deceive again, so as not to send the people away to do sacrifice to the Lord.

30 かくてモーセ、パロをはなれて出でヱホバに祈りたれば

And Moses went out from Pharao, and prayed to God.

31 ヱホバ、モーセの言のごとく爲したまへり即ちその蚋をパロとその臣下とその民よりはなれしめたまふ一ものこらざりき

And the Lord did as Moses said, and removed the dog-fly from Pharao, and from his servants, and from his people, and there was not one left.

32 然るにパロ此時にもまたその心を頑固にして民を去しめざりき

And Pharao hardened his heart, even on this occasion, and he would not send the people away.
