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: Thus saith the Lord: Let my people go to sacrifice to 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
But if thou wilt not let them go behold I will strike all thy coasts 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 bring forth an abundance of frogs: which shall come up, and enter into thy house, and thy bedchamber, and upon thy bed, and in the houses of thy servants, and to thy people, and into thy ovens, and into the remains of thy meats;
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 the frogs shall come in to thee and to thy people, and to all thy servants.
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, Stretch forth thy hand upon the streams and upon the rivers and the pools, and bring forth frogs upon the land of Egypt.
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 upon the waters of Egypt, and the frogs came 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 magicians also by their enchantments did in like manner, and the brought forth frogs upon all 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
But Pharao called Moses and Aaron and said to them: Pray ye to the Lord to take away the frogs from me and from my people; and I will let the people go to 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: Set me a time when I shall pray for thee, and for thy servants, and for thy people, that the frogs may be driven away from thee and from thy house, and from thy servants, and from thy people: and may remain only in the river.
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 answered: Tomorrow. But he said: I will do according to thy word; that thou mayst know that there is none like to the Lord our God.
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 depart from thee, and from thy house, and from thy servants, and from thy people; and shall remain only in the river.
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 for the promise, which he had made to Pharao concerning the frogs.
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 according to the word of Moses: 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 into immense heaps, and the land was corrupted.
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 Pharao seeing that rest was given, hardened his own heart, and did not hear them, as the Lord had commanded.
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, and strike the dust of the earth: and may there be sciniphs 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
And they did so. And Aaron stretched forth his hand, holding the rod: and he struck the dust of the earth, and there came sciniphs on men and on beasts: all the dust of the earth was turned into sciniphs through all the land of Egypt.
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 magicians with their enchantments practiced in like manner, to bring forth sciniphs, and they could not and there were sciniphs as well on men as on beasts.
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
And the magicians said to Pharao This is the finger of God. And Pharao heart was hardened, and he hearkened not unto them, as the Lord had commanded.
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
The Lord also said to Moses: Arise early, and stand before Pharao: for he will go forth to the waters: and thou shalt say to him: Thus saith the Lord: Let my people go to sacrifice to me.
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
But if thou wilt not let them go, behold I will send in upon thee, and upon thy servants, and upon thy houses all kind of flies: and the houses of the Egyptians shall be filled with flies of divers kinds, and the whole land wherein they shall be.
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 make the land of Gessen wherein my people is, wonderful in that lay, so that flies shall not be there: and thou shalt know that I am the Lord in the midst of 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 division between my people and thy people: tomorrow shall this sign be.
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 Lord did so. And there came a very grievous swarm of flies into he houses of Pharao and of his servants, and into all the land of Egypt: and the land was corrupted by this kind of flies.
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, and said to them: Go, and sacrifice to your God in this 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 the abominations of the Egyptians to the Lord our God: now if we kill those things which the Egyptians worship, in their presence, they will stone us.
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 three days’ journey into the wilderness: and we will sacrifice to the Lord our God, as he hath commanded 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 to sacrifice to the Lord your God in the wilderness: but go no farther: pray for me.
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 will go out from thee, and will pray to the Lord: and the flies shall depart from Pharao, and from his servants, and from his people tomorrow: but do not deceive any more, in not letting the people go to 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
So Moses went out from Pharao, and prayed to the Lord.
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 he did according to his word: and he took away the flies from Pharao, and from his servants, and from his people: there was not left so much as one.
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’s heart was hardened, so that neither this time would he let the people go.
