< ヨシュア記 10 >
1 茲にエルサレムの王アドニゼデクはヨシユアがアイを攻取てこれを全く滅ぼし嚮にヱリコとその王とに爲しごとくにアイとその王とにも爲たる事およびギベオンの民がイスラエルと好を爲て之が中にをる事を聞て
Now when Adoni-Zedek king of Jerusalem heard how Joshua had taken Ai, and had utterly destroyed it; as he had done to Jericho and her king, so he had done to Ai and her king; and how the inhabitants of Gibeon had made peace with Israel, and were amongst them,
2 大に懼る是ギベオンは大なる邑にして都府に等しきに因りまたアイよりも大きくしてその内の人々凡て強きに因てなり
they were very afraid, because Gibeon was a great city, as one of the royal cities, and because it was greater than Ai, and all its men were mighty.
3 エルサレムの王アドニゼデク是においてヘブロンの王ホハム、ヤルムテの王ピラム、ラキシの王ヤピアおよびエグロンの王デビルに人を遣はして云ふ
Therefore Adoni-Zedek king of Jerusalem sent to Hoham king of Hebron, Piram king of Jarmuth, Japhia king of Lachish, and Debir king of Eglon, saying,
4 我の處に上りきたりて我を助けよ我らギベオンを攻撃ん其はヨシユアおよびイスラエルの子孫と好を結びたればなりと
“Come up to me and help me. Let’s strike Gibeon; for they have made peace with Joshua and with the children of Israel.”
5 而してこのアモリ人の王五人すなはちエルサレムの王ヘブロンの王ヤルムテの王ラキシの王およびエグロンの王あひ集まりそり諸軍勢を率て上りきたりギベオンに對ひて陣を取り之を攻て戰ふ
Therefore the five kings of the Amorites, the king of Jerusalem, the king of Hebron, the king of Jarmuth, the king of Lachish, and the king of Eglon, gathered themselves together and went up, they and all their armies, and encamped against Gibeon, and made war against it.
6 ギベオンの人々ギルガルの陣營に人を遣はしヨシユアに言しめけるは僕等を助くることを緩うする勿れ迅速に我らの所に上り來りて我らを救ひ助けよ山地に住をるアモリ人の王みな相集りて我らを攻るなりと
The men of Gibeon sent to Joshua at the camp at Gilgal, saying, “Don’t abandon your servants! Come up to us quickly and save us! Help us; for all the kings of the Amorites that dwell in the hill country have gathered together against us.”
7 ヨシユアすなはち一切の軍人および一切の大勇士を率ゐてギルガルより進みのぼれり
So Joshua went up from Gilgal, he and the whole army with him, including all the mighty men of valour.
8 時にヱホバ、ヨシユアに言たまひけるは彼らを懼るるなかれ我かれらを汝の手に付す彼らの中には汝に當ることを得る者一人もあらじと
The LORD said to Joshua, “Don’t fear them, for I have delivered them into your hands. Not a man of them will stand before you.”
9 この故にヨシユア、ギルガルより終夜進みのぼりて猝然にかれらに攻よせしに
Joshua therefore came to them suddenly. He marched from Gilgal all night.
10 ヱホバかれらをイスラエルの前に敗りたまひければヨシユア、ギベオンにおいて彼らを夥多く撃殺しベテホロンの昇阪の路よりしてアゼカおよびマツケダまで彼らを追撃り
The LORD confused them before Israel. He killed them with a great slaughter at Gibeon, and chased them by the way of the ascent of Beth Horon, and struck them to Azekah and to Makkedah.
11 彼らイスラエルの前より逃はしりてベテホロンの降阪にありける時ヱホバ天より大石を降しそのアゼカに到るまで然したまひければ多く死りイスラエルの子孫が劍をもて殺しし者よりも雹石にて死し者の方衆かりき
As they fled from before Israel, while they were at the descent of Beth Horon, the LORD hurled down great stones from the sky on them to Azekah, and they died. There were more who died from the hailstones than those whom the children of Israel killed with the sword.
12 ヱホバ、イスラエルの子孫の前にアモリ人を付したまひし日にヨシユア、ヱホバにむかひて申せしことあり即ちイスラエルの目の前にて言けらく日よギベオンの上に止まれ月よアヤロンの谷にやすらへ
Then Joshua spoke to the LORD in the day when the LORD delivered up the Amorites before the children of Israel. He said in the sight of Israel, “Sun, stand still on Gibeon! You, moon, stop in the valley of Aijalon!”
13 民その敵を撃やぶるまで日は止まり月はやすらひぬ是はヤシヤルの書に記さるるにあらずや即ち日空の中にやすらひて急ぎ沒ざりしこと凡そ一日なりき
The sun stood still, and the moon stayed, until the nation had avenged themselves of their enemies. Isn’t this written in the book of Jashar? The sun stayed in the middle of the sky, and didn’t hurry to go down about a whole day.
14 是より先にも後にもヱホバ是のごとく人の言を聽いれたまひし日は有ず是時にはヱホバ、イスラエルのために戰ひたまへり
There was no day like that before it or after it, that the LORD listened to the voice of a man; for the LORD fought for Israel.
15 かくてヨシユア一切のイスラエル人とともにギルガルの陣營に歸りぬ
Joshua returned, and all Israel with him, to the camp to Gilgal.
16 かの五人の王は逃ゆきてマツケダの洞穴に隱れたりしが
These five kings fled, and hid themselves in the cave at Makkedah.
17 五人の王はマツケダの洞穴に隱れをるとヨシユアに告て言ふ者ありければ
Joshua was told, saying, “The five kings have been found, hidden in the cave at Makkedah.”
18 ヨシユアいひけるは汝ら洞穴の口に大石を轉ばしその傍に人を置てこれを守らせよ
Joshua said, “Roll large stones to cover the cave’s entrance, and set men by it to guard them;
19 但し汝らは止る勿れ汝らの敵の後を追てその殿軍を撃て彼らをその邑々に入しむる勿れ汝らの神ヱホバかれらを汝らの手に付したまへるぞかしと
but don’t stay there. Pursue your enemies, and attack them from the rear. Don’t allow them to enter into their cities; for the LORD your God has delivered them into your hand.”
20 ヨシユアおよびイスラエルの子孫おびただしく彼らを撃殺して遂に殺し盡しその撃もらされて遺れる者等城々に逃いるにおよびて
When Joshua and the children of Israel had finished killing them with a very great slaughter until they were consumed, and the remnant which remained of them had entered into the fortified cities,
21 民みな安然にマツケダの陣營にかへりてヨシユアの許にいたりけるがイスラエルの子孫にむかひて舌を鳴すもの一人もなかりき
all the people returned to the camp to Joshua at Makkedah in peace. None moved his tongue against any of the children of Israel.
22 時にヨシユア言ふ洞穴の口を開きて洞穴よりかの五人の王を我前に曳いだせと
Then Joshua said, “Open the cave entrance, and bring those five kings out of the cave to me.”
23 やがて然なしてかの五人の王すなはちエルサレムの王ヘブロンの王ヤルムテの王ラキシの王およびエグロンの王を洞穴より彼の前に曳いだせり
They did so, and brought those five kings out of the cave to him: the king of Jerusalem, the king of Hebron, the king of Jarmuth, the king of Lachish, and the king of Eglon.
24 かの王等をヨシユアの前に曳いだしし時ヨシユア、イスラエルの一切の人々を呼よせ己とともに往し軍人の長等に言けるは汝ら近よりて此王等の頸に足をかけよと乃はち近よりてその王等の頸に足をかけければ
When they brought those kings out to Joshua, Joshua called for all the men of Israel, and said to the chiefs of the men of war who went with him, “Come near. Put your feet on the necks of these kings.” They came near, and put their feet on their necks.
25 ヨシユアこれに言ふ汝ら懼るる勿れ慄く勿れ心を強くしかつ勇めよ汝らが攻て戰ふ諸の敵にはヱホバすべて斯のごとく爲たまふべしと
Joshua said to them, “Don’t be afraid, nor be dismayed. Be strong and courageous, for the LORD will do this to all your enemies against whom you fight.”
26 かくて後ヨシユア彼らを撃て死しめ五個の木にかけて晩暮まで木の上にこれを曝しおきしが
Afterward Joshua struck them, put them to death, and hanged them on five trees. They were hanging on the trees until the evening.
27 日の沒る時におよびてヨシユア命を下しければ之を木より取おろしその隱れたりし洞穴に投いれて洞穴の口に大石を置り是は今日が日までも存す
At the time of the going down of the sun, Joshua commanded, and they took them down off the trees, and threw them into the cave in which they had hidden themselves, and laid great stones on the mouth of the cave, which remain to this very day.
28 ヨシユアかの日マツケダを取り刃をもて之とその王とを撃ち之とその中たる一切の人をことごとく滅して一人をも遺さずヱリコの王になしたるごとくにマツケダの王にも爲しぬ
Joshua took Makkedah on that day, and struck it with the edge of the sword, with its king. He utterly destroyed it and all the souls who were in it. He left no one remaining. He did to the king of Makkedah as he had done to the king of Jericho.
29 かくてヨシユア一切のイスラエル人を率ゐてマツケダよりリブナに進みてリブナを攻て戰ひけるに
Joshua passed from Makkedah, and all Israel with him, to Libnah, and fought against Libnah.
30 ヱホバまた之とその王をもイスラエルの手に付したまひしかば刃をもて之とその中なる一切の人を撃ほろぼし一人をもその中に遺さずヱリコの王に爲たるごとくにその王にも爲ぬ
The LORD delivered it also, with its king, into the hand of Israel. He struck it with the edge of the sword, and all the souls who were in it. He left no one remaining in it. He did to its king as he had done to the king of Jericho.
31 ヨシユアまた一切のイスラエル人を率ゐてリブナよりラキシに進み之にむかひて陣をとり之を攻めて戰ひけるに
Joshua passed from Libnah, and all Israel with him, to Lachish, and encamped against it, and fought against it.
32 ヱホバでラキシをイスラエルの手に付したまひけれぼ第二日にこれを取り刃をもて之とその中なる一切の人々を撃ちほろぼせり凡てリブナに爲たるがごとし
The LORD delivered Lachish into the hand of Israel. He took it on the second day, and struck it with the edge of the sword, with all the souls who were in it, according to all that he had done to Libnah.
33 時にゲゼルの王ホラム、ラキシを援けんとて上りきたりければヨシユアかれとその民とを撃ころして終に一人をも遺さざりき
Then Horam king of Gezer came up to help Lachish; and Joshua struck him and his people, until he had left him no one remaining.
34 斯てヨシユア一切のイスラエル人を率ゐてラキシよりエグロンに進み之に對ひて陣を取りこれを攻て戰ひ
Joshua passed from Lachish, and all Israel with him, to Eglon; and they encamped against it and fought against it.
35 その日にこれを取り刃をもて之を撃その中なる一切の人をことごとくその日に滅ぼせり凡てラキシに爲たるが如し
They took it on that day, and struck it with the edge of the sword. He utterly destroyed all the souls who were in it that day, according to all that he had done to Lachish.
36 ヨシユアまた一切のイスラエル人をひきゐてエグロンよりヘブロンに進みのぼり之を攻て戰ひ
Joshua went up from Eglon, and all Israel with him, to Hebron; and they fought against it.
37 やがてこれを取り之とその王およびその一切の邑々とその中なる一切の人を刃にかけて撃ころして一人をも遺さざりき凡てエグロンに爲たるが如し即ち之とその中なる一切の人をことごとく滅ぼせり
They took it, and struck it with the edge of the sword, with its king and all its cities, and all the souls who were in it. He left no one remaining, according to all that he had done to Eglon; but he utterly destroyed it, and all the souls who were in it.
38 かくてヨシユア一切のイスラエル人を率ゐ歸りてデビルに至り之を攻て戰ひ
Joshua returned, and all Israel with him, to Debir, and fought against it.
39 之とその王およびその一切の邑を取り刃をもて之を撃てその中なる一切の人をことごとく滅ぼし一人をも遺さざりき其デビルと其王に爲たる所はヘブロンに爲たるが如く又リブナとその王に爲たるがごとくなりき
He took it, with its king and all its cities. They struck them with the edge of the sword, and utterly destroyed all the souls who were in it. He left no one remaining. As he had done to Hebron, so he did to Debir, and to its king; as he had done also to Libnah, and to its king.
40 ヨシユアかく此全地すなはち山地南の地平地および山腹の地ならびに其すべての王等を撃ほろぼして人一箇をも遺さず凡て氣息する者は盡くこれを滅ぼせりイスラエルの神ヱホバの命じたまひしごとし
So Joshua struck all the land, the hill country, the South, the lowland, the slopes, and all their kings. He left no one remaining, but he utterly destroyed all that breathed, as the LORD, the God of Israel, commanded.
41 ヨシユア、カデシバルネアよりガザまでの國々およびゴセンの全地を撃ほろぼしてギベオンにまで及ぼせり
Joshua struck them from Kadesh Barnea even to Gaza, and all the country of Goshen, even to Gibeon.
42 イスラエルの神ヱホバ、イスラエルのために戰ひたまひしに因てヨシユアこれらの諸王およびその地を一時に取り
Joshua took all these kings and their land at one time because the LORD, the God of Israel, fought for Israel.
43 かくてヨシユア一切のイスラエル人を率ゐてギルガルの陣營にかへりぬ
Joshua returned, and all Israel with him, to the camp to Gilgal.
