士師記 10
1 アビメレクの後イッサカルの人にてドドの子なるプワの子トラ起りてイスラエルを救ふ彼エフライムの山のシヤミルに住み
After the time of Abimelech, a man of Issachar, Tola son of Puah, the son of Dodo, rose up to save Israel. He lived in Shamir, in the hill country of Ephraim.
2 二十三年の間イスラエルを審判しがつひに死てシヤミルに葬らる
Tola judged Israel twenty-three years, and when he died, he was buried in Shamir.
3 彼の後にギレアデ人ヤイル起りて二十二年の間イスラエルを審判たり
Tola was followed by Jair the Gileadite, who judged Israel twenty-two years.
4 彼に子三十人ありて三十の驢馬に乗る彼等三十の邑を有りギレアデの地において今日までヤイルの村ととなふるものすなはち是なり
He had thirty sons who rode on thirty donkeys. And they had thirty towns in the land of Gilead, which to this day are called Havvoth-jair.
5 ヤイル死てカモンに葬らる
When Jair died, he was buried in Kamon.
6 イスラエルの子孫ふたたびヱホバの目のまへに惡を爲しバアルとアシタロテ及びスリヤの神シドンの神モアブの神アンモンの子孫の神ペリシテ人の神に事へヱホバを棄て之に事へざりき
And again the Israelites did evil in the sight of the LORD. They served the Baals, the Ashtoreths, the gods of Aram, Sidon, and Moab, and the gods of the Ammonites and Philistines. Thus they forsook the LORD and did not serve Him.
7 ヱホバ烈しくイスラエルを怒りて之をペリシテ人及びアンモンの子孫の手に賣付したまへり
So the anger of the LORD burned against Israel, and He sold them into the hands of the Philistines and Ammonites,
8 其年に彼らイスラエルの子孫を虐げ難せりヨルダンの彼方においてギレアデにあるところのアモリ人の地に居るイスラエルの子孫十八年の間斯せられたりき
who that very year harassed and oppressed the Israelites, and did so for eighteen years to all the Israelites on the other side of the Jordan in Gilead, the land of the Amorites.
9 アンモンの子孫またユダとベニヤミンとエフライムの族とを攻んとてヨルダンを渡りしかばイスラエル太く苦めり
The Ammonites also crossed the Jordan to fight against Judah, Benjamin, and the house of Ephraim, and Israel was in deep distress.
10 ここにおいてイスラエルの子孫ヱホバに呼りていひけるは我らおのれの神を棄てバアルに事へて汝に罪を犯したりと
Then the Israelites cried out to the LORD, saying, “We have sinned against You, for we have indeed forsaken our God and served the Baals.”
11 ヱホバ、イスラエルの子孫にいひたまひけるは我かつてエジプト人アモリ人アンモンの子孫ペリシテ人より汝らを救ひ出せしにあらずや
The LORD replied, “When the Egyptians, Amorites, Ammonites, Philistines,
12 又シドン人アマレク人及びマオン人の汝らを困しめしとき汝ら我に呼りしかば我汝らを彼らの手より救ひ出せり
Sidonians, Amalekites, and Maonites oppressed you and you cried out to Me, did I not save you from their hands?
13 然るに汝ら我を棄て他の神に事ふれば我かさねて汝らを救はざるべし
But you have forsaken Me and served other gods, so I will no longer save you.
14 汝らが擇める神々に往て呼れ汝らの艱難のときに之をして汝らを救はしめよ
Go and cry out to the gods you have chosen. Let them save you in your time of trouble.”
15 イスラエルの子孫ヱホバに言けるは我ら罪を犯せりすべて汝の目に善と見るところを我らになしたまへねがはくは唯今日我らを救ひたまへと
“We have sinned,” the Israelites said to the LORD. “Deal with us as You see fit; but please deliver us today!”
16 而して民おのれの中より異なる神々を取除きてヱホバに事へたりヱホバの心イスラエルの艱難を見るに忍びずなりぬ
So they put away the foreign gods from among them and served the LORD, and He could no longer bear the misery of Israel.
17 茲にアンモンの子孫集てギレアデに陣を取りしがイスラエルの子孫は聚りてミヅパに陣を取り
Then the Ammonites were called to arms and camped in Gilead, and the Israelites assembled and camped at Mizpah.
18 時に民ギレアデの群伯たがひにいひけるは誰かアンモンの子孫に打ちむかひて戰を始むべき人ぞ其人をギレアデのすべての民の首となすべしと
And the rulers of Gilead said to one another, “Whoever will launch the attack against the Ammonites will be the head of all who live in Gilead.”
