ヨシュア記 18

1 かくてイスラエルの子孫の會衆ことごとくシロに集り集會の幕屋をかしこに立つその地は已に彼らに歸服ぬ

And the whole Congregation of the children of Israel, came together at Shiloh: for they set vp the Tabernacle of the Congregation there, after the land was subiect vnto them.

2 この時なほイスラエルの子孫の中に未だその產業を分ち取ざる支派七のこりゐければ

Nowe there remained among the children of Israel seuen tribes, to whom they had not deuided their inheritance.

3 ヨシユア、イスラエルの子孫に言けるは汝らは汝らの先祖の神ヱホバの汝らに與へたまひし地を取に往くことを何時まで怠りをるや

Therefore Ioshua said vnto the children of Israel, Howe long are ye so slacke to enter and possesse the land which the Lord God of your fathers hath giuen you?

4 汝ら支派ごとに三人づつを擧よ我これを遣さん彼らは起てその地を歩きめぐりその產業にしたがひて之を描き寫して我に歸るべし

Giue from among you for euery tribe three men, that I may sende them, and that they may rise, and walke through the land, and distribute it according to their inheritance, and returne to me.

5 彼らその地を分ちて七分となすべしユダは南にてその境界の内にをりヨセフの家は北にてその境界の内にをるべし

And that they may deuide it vnto them into seuen parts, (Iudah shall abide in his coast at the South, and the house of Ioseph shall stand in their coastes at the North)

6 汝らその地を描き寫して七分となし此にわが許に持きたれ我ここにて我等の神ヱホバの前になんぢらの爲に籤を掣ん

Ye shall describe the land therefore into seuen partes, and shall bring them hither to me, and I will cast lottes for you here before the Lord our God.

7 レビ人は汝らの中に何の分をも有ずヱホバの祭司となることをもて其產業とす又ガド、ルベンおよびマナセの支派の半はヨルダンの彼旁東の方にて已にその產業を受たり是ヱホバの僕モーセの之に與へし者なりと

But the Leuites shall haue no part among you: for the Priesthood of the Lord is their inheritance: also Gad and Reuben and halfe the tribe of Manasseh haue receiued their inheritance beyond Iorden Eastward, which Moses the seruant of the Lord gaue them.

8 その人々すなはち起て往り其地を描き寫さんとて出ゆける此者等にヨシユア命じて云ふ汝等ゆきてその地を歩きめぐり之を描き寫して我に歸りきたれ我シロにて此にヱホバの前にて汝らのために籤を掣んと

Then the men arose, and went their way: and Ioshua charged them that went to describe the land, saying, Depart, and goe through the land, and describe it, and returne to me, that I may here cast lottes for you before the Lord in Shiloh.

9 その人々ゆきてその地を經めぐり邑にしたがひて之を七分となして書に描き寫しシロの營に歸りてヨシユアに詣りければ

So the men departed, and passed through the lande, and described it by cities into seuen partes in a booke, and returned to Ioshua into the campe at Shiloh.

10 ヨシユア、シロにて彼らのためにヱホバの前に籤を掣り而してヨシユア彼所にてイスラエルの子孫の區分にしたがひて其地を分ち與へたり

Then Ioshua cast lottes for them in Shiloh before the Lord, and there Ioshua deuided the land vnto the children of Israel, according to their portions:

11 まづベニヤミンの子孫の支派のためにその宗族にしたがひて籤を掣りその籤によりて獲たる地の境界はユダの子孫とヨセフの子孫の間にわたる

And the lot of the tribe of the children of Beniamin came foorth according to their families, and the cost of their lot lay betweene the children of Iudah, and the children of Ioseph.

12 即ちその北の方の境界はヨルダンよりしてヱリコの北の脇に上り西の山地を逾てまた上りベテアベンの荒野にいたりて盡く

And their coast on the Northside was from Iorden, and the border went vp to the side of Iericho on the Northpart, and went vp through the mountaines Westward, and the endes thereof are in the wildernesse of Beth-auen:

13 彼處よりその境界ルズに進みルズの南の脇にいたるルズはベテルなり而して其境界下ベテホロンの南に横たはる山に沿てアタロテアダルに下り

And this border goeth along from thence to Luz, euen to the Southside of Luz (the same is Beth-el) and this border descendeth to Atroth-addar, neere the mount, that lyeth on the Southside of Beth-horon the nether.

14 延て西の方にて南に曲りベテホロンの南面に横はるところの山より進みユダの子孫の邑キリアテバアル即ちキリアテヤリムにいたりて盡くその西の境界は是のごとし

So the border turneth, and compasseth the corner of the Sea Southward, from the mount that lyeth before Beth-horon Southward: and the endes thereof are at Kiriath-baal (which is Kiriath-iearim) a citie of the children of Iudah: this is the Westquarter.

15 またその南の方はキリアテヤリムの極處よりして西におもむきてネフトアの水の源にいたり

And the Southquarter is from the ende of Kiriath-iearim, and this border goeth out Westward, and commeth to the fountaine of waters of Nephtoah.

16 レバイムの谷の中の北の方にてベニヒンノムの谷の前に横たはる所の山の極處に下り其處よりしてヒンノムの谷に下りてヱブス人の南の脇にいたりエンロゲルに下り

And this border descendeth at the ende of the mountaine, that lyeth before the valley of Ben-hinnom, which is in the valley of the gyants Northward, and descendeth into the valley of Hinnom by the side of Iebusi Southwarde, and goeth downe to En-rogel,

17 北に延てエンシメシにおもむきアドミムの阪に對へるゲリロテにおもむきルベン人、ボハンの石まで下り

And compasseth from the North, and goeth foorth to En-shemesh, and stretcheth to Geliloth, which is toward the going vp vnto Adummim, and goeth downe to the stone of Bohan the sonne of Reuben.

18 北の方にてアラバに對する處にわたりてアラバに下り

So it goeth along to the side ouer against the plaine Northward, and goeth downe into the plaine.

19 ベテホグラの北の脇にわたりヨルダンの南の極にて鹽海の北の入海にいたりて盡くその南の境界は是のごとし

After, this border goeth along to the side of Beth-hoglah Northward: and the endes thereof, that is, of the border, reach to the point of the salt Sea Northward, and to the ende of Iorden Southward: this is the Southcoast.

20 東の方にてはヨルダンその境界となる是すなはちベニヤミンの子孫がその宗族にしたがひて獲たる產業の周圍の境界なり

Also Iorden is the border of it on the Eastside: this is the inheritance of the children of Beniamin by the coastes thereof rounde about according to their families.

21 ベニヤミンの子孫の支派がその宗族にしたがひて獲たる邑々はヱリコ、ベテホグラ、エメクケジツ
