< ヨシュア記 11 >
1 ハゾルの王ヤビン之を聞およびマドンの王ヨバブ、シムロンの王アクサフの王
When Jabin king of Hazor heard of it, he sent to Jobab king of Madon, to the king of Shimron, to the king of Achshaph,
2 および北の地山地キンネロテの南のアラバ平地西の方なるドルの高處などに居る王等
and to the kings who were on the north, in the hill country, in the Arabah south of Chinneroth, in the lowland, and in the heights of Dor on the west,
3 すなはち東西のカナン人アモリ人ヘテ人ペリジ人山地のエブス人ミヅバの地なるヘルモンの麓のヒビ人などに人を遣はせり
to the Canaanite on the east and on the west, the Amorite, the Hittite, the Perizzite, the Jebusite in the hill country, and the Hivite under Hermon in the land of Mizpah.
4 爰に彼らその諸軍勢を率ゐて出きたれり其民の衆多ことは濱の砂の多きがごとくにして馬と車もまた甚だ多かりき
They went out, they and all their armies with them, many people, even as the sand that is on the seashore in multitude, with very many horses and chariots.
5 これらの王たち皆あひ會して進みきたり共にメロムの水の邊に陣をとりてイスラエルと戰はんとす
All these kings met together; and they came and encamped together at the waters of Merom, to fight with Israel.
6 時にヱホバ、ヨシユアに言たまひけるは彼らの故によりて懼るる勿れ明日の今頃われ彼らをイスラエルの前に付して盡く殺さしめん汝かれらの馬の足の筋を截り火をもて彼らの車を焚べしと
The LORD said to Joshua, “Don’t be afraid because of them; for tomorrow at this time, I will deliver them up all slain before Israel. You shall hamstring their horses and burn their chariots with fire.”
7 ヨシユアすなはち一切の軍人を率ゐて俄然にメロムの水の邊に押寄て之を襲ひけるに
So Joshua came suddenly, with all the warriors, against them by the waters of Merom, and attacked them.
8 ヱホバこれをイスラエルの手に付したまひしかば則ち之を撃やぶりて大シドンおよびミスレポテマイムまで之を追ゆき東の方にては又ミヅバの谷までこれを追ゆき遂に一人をも遺さず撃とれり
The LORD delivered them into the hand of Israel, and they struck them, and chased them to great Sidon, and to Misrephoth Maim, and to the valley of Mizpah eastward. They struck them until they left them no one remaining.
9 ヨシユアすなはちヱホバの己に命じたまひしことにしたがひて彼らに馬の足の筋を截り火をもてその車を焚り
Joshua did to them as the LORD told him. He hamstrung their horses and burnt their chariots with fire.
10 その時ヨシユア歸りきたりてハゾルを取り刃をもてその王を撃り在昔ハゾルは是らの諸國の盟主たりき
Joshua turned back at that time, and took Hazor, and struck its king with the sword; for Hazor used to be the head of all those kingdoms.
11 即ち刃をもてその中なる一切の人を撃てことごとく之を滅ぼし氣息する者は一人だに遺さざりき又火をもてハゾルを焚り
They struck all the souls who were in it with the edge of the sword, utterly destroying them. There was no one left who breathed. He burnt Hazor with fire.
12 ヨシユアこれらの王の一切の邑々およびその諸王を取り刃をもてこれを撃て盡く滅ぼせり、ヱホバの僕モーセの命じたるがごとし
Joshua captured all the cities of those kings, with their kings, and he struck them with the edge of the sword, and utterly destroyed them, as Moses the servant of the LORD commanded.
13 但しその岡の上にたちたる邑々はイスラエルこれを焚ず唯ハゾルのみをヨシユア焚り
But as for the cities that stood on their mounds, Israel burnt none of them, except Hazor only. Joshua burnt that.
14 是らの邑の諸の貨財及び家畜はイスラエルの人々奪ひて自ら之を取り人はみな刃をもて撃て滅ぼし盡し氣息する者は一人だに遺さざりき
The children of Israel took all the plunder of these cities, with the livestock, as plunder for themselves; but every man they struck with the edge of the sword, until they had destroyed them. They didn’t leave any who breathed.
15 ヱホバその僕モーセに命じたまひし所をモーセまたヨシユアに命じ置たりしがヨシユアその如くに行へり凡てヱホバのモーセに命じたまひし所はヨシユア一だに爲で置し事なし
As the LORD commanded Moses his servant, so Moses commanded Joshua. Joshua did so. He left nothing undone of all that the LORD commanded Moses.
16 ヨシユア斯その全地すなはち山地南の全地ゴセンの全地平地アラバ、イスラエルの山地およびその平地を取り
So Joshua captured all that land, the hill country, all the South, all the land of Goshen, the lowland, the Arabah, the hill country of Israel, and the lowland of the same,
17 セイルに上りゆくでハラク山よりヘルモン山の麓なるレバノン谷のバアルガデまでを獲その王等をことごとく執へて之を撃て死しめたり
from Mount Halak, that goes up to Seir, even to Baal Gad in the valley of Lebanon under Mount Hermon. He took all their kings, struck them, and put them to death.
18 ヨシユア此すべての王等と戰爭をなすこと日ひさし
Joshua made war a long time with all those kings.
19 ギベオンの民ヒビ人を除くの外はイスラエルの子孫と好をなしし邑なかりき皆戰爭をなしてこれを攻とりしなり
There was not a city that made peace with the children of Israel, except the Hivites, the inhabitants of Gibeon. They took all in battle.
20 そもそも彼らが心を剛愎にしてイスラエルに攻よせしはヱホバの然らしめたまひし者なり彼らは詛はれし者となり憐憫を乞ふこととせず滅ぼされんがためなりき是全くヱホバのモーセに命じたまひしが如し
For it was of the LORD to harden their hearts, to come against Israel in battle, that he might utterly destroy them, that they might have no favour, but that he might destroy them, as the LORD commanded Moses.
21 その時ヨシユアまた往て山地ヘブロン、デビル、アナブ、ユダの一切の山地イスラエルの一切の山地などよりしてアナク人を絶ち而してヨシユア彼らの邑々をも與に滅ぼせり
Joshua came at that time, and cut off the Anakim from the hill country, from Hebron, from Debir, from Anab, and from all the hill country of Judah, and from all the hill country of Israel. Joshua utterly destroyed them with their cities.
22 然からにイスラエルの子孫の地の内にはアナク人一人も遺りをらず只ガザ、ガテ、アシドドに少く遺りをる而已
There were none of the Anakim left in the land of the children of Israel. Only in Gaza, in Gath, and in Ashdod, did some remain.
23 ヨシユアかく此地を盡く取り全くヱホバのモーセに告たまひし如し而してヨシユア、イスラエルの支派の區別にしたがひ之を與へて產業となさしめたり遂に此地に戰爭やみぬ
So Joshua took the whole land, according to all that the LORD spoke to Moses; and Joshua gave it for an inheritance to Israel according to their divisions by their tribes. Then the land had rest from war.
