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
And it cometh to pass when all the kings of the Amorite which [are] beyond the Jordan, towards the sea, and all the kings of the Canaanite which [are] by the sea, hear how that Jehovah hath dried up the waters of the Jordan at the presence of the sons of Israel till their passing over, that their heart is melted, and there hath not been in them any more spirit because of the presence of the sons 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
At that time said Jehovah unto Joshua, 'Make for thee knives of flint, and turn back, circumcise the sons of Israel a 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
and Joshua maketh for him knives of flint, and circumciseth the sons of Israel at the height of the foreskins.
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 thing [for] which Joshua circumciseth [them]: all the people who are coming out of Egypt, who are males, all the men of war have died in the wilderness, in the way, in their coming 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 who are coming out were circumcised, and all the people who [are] born in the wilderness, in the way, in their coming out from Egypt, they have 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 forty years have the sons of Israel gone in the wilderness, till all the nation of the men of war who are coming out of Egypt, who hearkened not to the voice of Jehovah, to whom Jehovah hath sworn not to show them the land which Jehovah sware to their fathers to give to us, a land flowing with milk and honey, are consumed;
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
and their sons He raised up in their stead, them hath Joshua circumcised, for they have been uncircumcised, for they have not circumcised them in 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 it cometh to pass when all the nation have completed to be circumcised, that they abide in their places in the camp till their recovering;
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
and Jehovah saith unto Joshua, 'To-day I have rolled the reproach of Egypt from off you;' and [one] calleth the name of that place Gilgal unto 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
And the sons of Israel encamp in Gilgal, and make the passover on the fourteenth day of the month, at evening, in the plains of Jericho;
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 eat of the old corn of the land on the morrow of the passover, unleavened things and roasted [corn], in this self-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 manna doth cease on the morrow in their eating of the old corn of the land, and there hath been no more manna to the sons of Israel, and they eat of the increase of the land of Canaan in that year.
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 it cometh to pass in Joshua's being by Jericho, that he lifteth up his eyes, and looketh, and lo, one standing over-against him, and his drawn sword in his hand, and Joshua goeth unto him, and saith to him, 'Art thou for us or for our adversaries?'
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 saith, 'No, for I [am] Prince of Jehovah's host; now I have come;' and Joshua falleth on his face to the earth, and doth obeisance, and saith to Him, 'What is my Lord speaking unto His servant?'
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 Prince of Jehovah's host saith unto Joshua, 'Cast off thy shoe from off thy foot, for the place on which thou art standing is holy;' and Joshua doth so;
