ヨシュア記 5
1 ヨルダンの彼旁に居るアモリ人の諸の王および海邊に居るカナン人の諸の王はヱホバ、ヨルダンの水をイスラエルの人々の前に乾涸して我らを濟らせたまひしと聞きイスラエルの人々の事によりて神魂消え心も心ならざりき
Nowe when all the Kings of the Amorites, which were beyond Iorden Westward, and all the Kinges of the Canaanites which were by the Sea, heard that the Lord had dried vp the waters of Iorden before the children of Israel vntill they were gone ouer, their heart fainted: and there was no courage in them any more because of the children of Israel.
2 その時ヱホバ、ヨシユアに言たまひけるは汝石の小刀を作り重て復イスラエルの人々に割禮を行なへと
That same time the Lord said vnto Ioshua, Make thee sharpe kniues, and returne, and circumcise the sonnes of Israel the second time.
3 ヨシユアすなはち石の小刀を作り陽皮山にてイスラエルの人々に割禮を行へり
Then Ioshua made him sharpe kniues and circumcised the sonnes of Israel in the hill of the foreskinnes.
4 ヨシユアが割禮を行ひし所以は是なりエジプトより出きたりし民の中の一切の男すなはち軍人は皆エジプトを出し後途にて荒野に死たりしが
And this is the cause why Ioshua circumcised all the people, euen the males that came out of Egypt, because all the men of warre were dead in the wildernesse by the way after they came out of Egypt.
5 その出來し民はみな割禮を受たる者なりき然どエジプトを出し後途にて荒野に生れし民には皆割禮を施こさざりき
For all the people that came out were circumcised: but all the people that were borne in the wildernes by the way after they came out of Egypt, were not circumcised.
6 そもそもイスラエルの人々は四十年の間荒野を歩みをりて終にそのエジプトより出來し民すなはち軍人等ことごとく亡はてたり是ヱホバの聲に聽したがはざりしに因てなり是をもてヱホバかれらの先祖等に誓ひて我等に與へんと宣まひし地なる乳と蜜との流るる地を之に見せじと誓たまへり
For the children of Israel walked fourtie yeres in the wildernes, till all the people of the men of warre that came out of Egypt were consumed, because they obeyed not the voyce of the Lord: vnto whome the Lord sware, that he would not shewe them the lande, which the Lord had sworne vnto their fathers, that he would giue vs, euen a land that floweth with milke and hony.
7 かれらに継て興らしめたまひしその子輩にはヨシユア割禮を行へりかれらは途にて割禮を施さざりしによりて割禮なきものなりければなり
So their sonnes whome he raysed vp in their steade, Ioshua circumcised: for they were vncircumcised, because they circumcised them not by the way.
8 一切の民に割禮を行ふこと畢りぬれば民は陣營に其儘居てその痊るを待り
And when they had made an ende of circumcising al the people, they abode in the places in the campe till they were whole.
9 時にヱホバ、ヨシユアにむかひて我今日エジプトの羞辱を汝らの上より轉ばし去りと宣まへり是をもてその處の名を今日までギルガル(轉)と稱ふ
After, the Lord said vnto Ioshua, This day I haue taken away the shame of Egypt from you: wherefore he called the name of that place Gilgal, vnto this day.
10 イスラエルの人々ギルガルに營を張りその月の十四日の晩ヱリコの平野にて逾越節を行へり
So the children of Israel abode in Gilgal, and kept ye feast of the Passeouer the fourteenth day of the moneth at euen in ye plaine of Iericho.
11 而して逾越節の翌日その地の穀物酵いれぬパンおよび烘麥をその日に食ひけるが
And they did eat of the corne of the land, on the morow after the Passeouer, vnleauened breade, and parched corne in the same day.
12 その地の穀物を食ひし翌日よりしてマナの降ることを止みてイスラエルの人々かさねてマナを獲ざりき其年はカナンの地の產物を食へり
And the MAN ceased on the morowe after they had eaten of the corne of the land, neither had the children of Israel MAN any more, but did eate of the fruite of the land of Canaan that yeere.
13 ヨシユア、ヱリコの邊にあひける時目を擧て觀しに一箇の人劍を手に抜持て己にむかひて立ゐければヨシユアすなはちその許にゆきて之に言ふ汝は我等を助くるか將われらの敵を助くるか
And when Ioshua was by Iericho, he lift vp his eyes and looked: and behold, there stood a man against him, hauing a sword drawen in his hand: and Ioshua went vnto him, and said vnto him, Art thou on our side, or on our aduersaries?
14 かれいひけるは否われはヱホバの軍旅の將として今來れるなりとヨシユア地に俯伏て拝し我主なにを僕に告んとしたまふやと之に言り
And he said, Nay, but as a captaine of the host of the Lord am I nowe come: then Ioshua fel on his face to the earth, and did worship, and saide vnto him, What sayth my Lord vnto his seruant?
15 ヱホバの軍旅の將ヨシユアに言けるは汝の履を足より脱され汝が立をる處は聖きなりとヨシユア然なしぬ
And the captaine of ye Lords host said vnto Ioshua, Loose thy shoe of thy foote: for ye place wheron thou standest, is holy: and Ioshua did so.
