< ヨシュア記 14 >
1 イスラエルの子孫がカナンの地にて取しその產業の地は左のごとし即ち祭司エレアザル、ヌンの子ヨシユアおよびイスラエルの子孫の支派の族長等これを彼らに分ち
These also are the places which the children of Israel inherited in the land of Canaan, which Eleazar the Priest, and Ioshua the sonne of Nun and the chiefe fathers of the tribes of the children of Israel, distributed to them,
2 ヱホバがモーセによりて命じたまひしごとく產業の籤によりて之を九の支派および半の支派に與ふ
By the lot of their inheritance, as the Lord had commanded by the hande of Moses, to giue to the nine tribes, and the halfe tribe.
3 其はヨルダンの彼旁にてモーセ已にかの二の支派と半の支派とに產業を與へたればなり但しレビ人には之が中に產業を與へざりき
For Moses had giuen inheritance vnto two tribes and an halfe tribe, beyond Iorde: but vnto the Leuites he gaue none inheritance among them.
4 是はヨセフの子孫マナセ、エフライムの二の支派と成たるに因て然りレビ人には此地において何の分をも與へず唯その住べき邑々およびその家畜と貨財を置べき郊地を與へしのみ
For the childre of Ioseph were two tribes, Manasseh and Ephraim: therefore they gaue no part vnto the Leuites in the lande, saue cities to dwell in, with the suburbes of the same for their beastes and their substance.
5 イスラエルの子孫ヱホバのモーセに命じたまひしごとく行ひてその地を分てり
As the Lord had commanded Moses, so the children of Israel did when they deuided the land.
6 茲にユダの子孫ギルガルにてヨシユアの許に至りケニズ人ヱフンネの子カレブ、ヨシユアに言けるはヱホバ、カデシバルネアにて我と汝との事につきて神の人モーセに告たまひし事あり汝これを知る
Then the children of Iudah came vnto Ioshua in Gilgal: and Caleb the sonne of Iephunneh the Kenezite saide vnto him, Thou knowest what the Lord saide vnto Moses the man of God, concerning me and thee in Kadesh-barnea.
7 ヱホバの僕モーセが此地を窺はせんとて我をカデシバルネアより遣はしし時に我は四十歳なりき其時我は心に思ふまにまに彼に復命したり
Fourtie yeere olde was I, when Moses the seruant of the Lord sent me from Kadesh-barnea to espie the land, and I brought him word againe, as I thought in mine heart.
8 我とともに上り往しわが兄弟等は民の心を挫くことを爲たりしが我は全く我神ヱホバに從へり
But my brethren that went vp with me, discouraged the heart of the people: yet I followed still the Lord my God.
9 その日モーセ誓ひて言けらく汝の足の踐たる地は必ず永く汝と汝の子孫の產業となるべし汝まったく我神ヱホバに從がひたればなりと
Wherefore Moses sware the same day, saying, Certainely the land whereon thy feete haue troden, shalbe thine inheritance, and thy childrens for euer, because thou hast followed constantly the Lord my God.
10 ヱホバこの言をモーセに語りたまひし時より已來イスラエルが荒野に歩みたる此四十五年の間かく其のたまひし如く我を生存らへさせたまへり視よ我は今日すでに八十五歳なるが
Therefore beholde nowe, the Lord hath kept me aliue, as he promised: this is the fourtie and fift yeere since the Lord spake this thing vnto Moses, while the children of Israel wandered in the wildernes: and nowe loe, I am this day foure score and fiue yeere olde:
11 今日もなほモーセの我を遣はしたりし日のごとく健剛なり我が今の力はかの時の力のごとくにして出入し戰闘をなすに堪ふ
And yet am as strong at this time, as I was when Moses sent me: as strong as I was then, so strong am I nowe, either for warre, or for gouernment.
12 然ば彼日ヱホバの語りたまひし此山を我に與へよ汝も彼日聞たる如く彼處にはアナキ人をりその邑々は大にして堅固なり然ながらヱホバわれとともに在して我つひにヱホバの宣ひしごとく彼らを逐はらふことを得んと
Nowe therefore giue me this mountaine whereof ye Lord spake in that day (for thou heardest in that day, how the Anakims were there, and the cities great and walled) if so be the Lord will be with me, that I may driue them out, as the Lord said.
13 ヨシユア、ヱフンネの子カレブを祝しヘブロンをこれに與へて產業となさしむ
Then Ioshua blessed him, and gaue vnto Caleb the sonne of Iephunneh, Hebron for an inheritance.
14 是をもてヘブロンは今日までケニズ人ヱフンネの子カレブの產業となりをる是は彼まつたくイスラエルの神ヱホバに從がひたればなり
Hebron therefore became the inheritance of Caleb the sonne of Iephunneh the Kenezite, vnto this day: because he followed constantly the Lord God of Israel.
15 ヘブロンの名は元はキリアテアルバと曰ふアルバはアナキ人の中の最も大なる人なりき茲にいたりてその地に戰爭やみぬ
And the name of Hebron was before time, Kiriath-arba: which Arba was a great man amog the Anakims: thus the land ceassed from warre.
