民数記 19
1 ヱホバ、モーセとアロンに告て言たまはく
And the Lord said to Moses and Aaron,
2 ヱホバが命ずるところの律の例は是のごとし云くイスラエルの子孫に告て赤牝牛の全くして疵なく未だ軛を負しこと有ざる者を汝の許に牽きたらしめ
This is the rule of the law which the Lord has made, saying, Give orders to the children of Israel to give you a red cow without any mark on her, and on which the yoke has never been put:
3 汝ら之を祭司エレアザルに交すべし彼はまたこれを營の外に牽いだして自己の眼の前にこれを宰らしむべし
Give her to Eleazar the priest and let him take her outside the tent-circle and have her put to death before him.
4 而して祭司エレアザルこれが血を其指につけ集會の幕屋の表にむかひてその血を七次灑ぎ
Then let Eleazar the priest take some of her blood on his finger, shaking the blood seven times in the direction of the front of the Tent of meeting:
5 やがてその牝牛を自己の眼の前に燒しむべしその皮その肉その血およびその糞をみな燒べし
And the cow is to be burned before him, her skin and her flesh and her blood and her waste are to be burned:
6 その時祭司香柏と牛膝草と紅の絲をとりて之をその燒る牝牛の中に投いるべし
Then let the priest take cedar-wood and hyssop and red thread, and put them into the fire where the cow is burning.
7 かくて祭司はその衣服を浣ひ水にてその身を滌ぎて然る後營に入べし祭司の身は晩まで汚るるなり
And the priest, after washing his clothing and bathing his body in water, may come back to the tent-circle, and will be unclean till evening.
8 また之を燒たる者も水にその衣服を浣ひ水にその身を滌ぐべし彼も晩まで汚るるなり
And he who does the burning is to have his clothing washed and his body bathed in water and be unclean till evening.
9 斯て身の潔き人一人その牝牛の灰をかき斂めてこれを營の外の清淨處に蓄へ置べし是イスラエルの子孫の會衆のために備へおきて汚穢を潔る水を作るべき者にして罪を潔むる物に當るなり
Then let a man who is clean take the dust of the burned cow and put it outside the tent-circle in a clean place, where it is to be kept for the children of Israel and used in making the water which takes away what is unclean: it is a sin-offering.
10 その牝牛の灰をかき斂めたる者はその衣服を浣ふべしその身は晩まで汚るるなりイスラエルの子孫とその中に寄寓る他國の人とは永くこれを例とすべきなり
And he who takes up the dust of the burned cow is to have his clothing washed with water and be unclean till evening: this is to be a law for ever, for the children of Israel as well as for the man from another country who is living among them.
11 人の死屍に捫る者は七日の間汚る
Anyone touching a dead body will be unclean for seven days:
12 第三日と第七日にこの灰水を以て身を潔むべし然せば潔くならん然ど若し第三日と第七日に身を潔むることを爲ざれば潔くならじ
On the third day and on the seventh day he is to make himself clean with the water, and so he will be clean: but if he does not do this on the third day and on the seventh day, he will not be clean.
13 凡そ死人の屍に捫りて身を潔むることを爲ざる者はヱホバの幕屋を汚すなればイスラエルより斷るべし汚穢を潔むる水をその身に灑ざるによりて潔くならずその汚穢なほ身にあるなり
Anyone touching the body of a dead man without making himself clean in this way, makes the House of the Lord unclean; and that man will be cut off from Israel: because the water was not put on him, he will be unclean; his unclean condition is unchanged.
14 天幕に人の死ることある時に應用ふる律は是なり即ち凡てその天幕に入る者凡てその天幕にある物は七日の間汚るべし
This is the law when death comes to a man in his tent: everyone who comes into the tent, and everyone who is in the tent, will be unclean for seven days.
15 凡そ蓋を取はなして蓋はざりし所の器皿はみな汚る
And every open vessel without a cover fixed on it will be unclean.
16 凡そ刀劍にて殺されたる者または死屍または人の骨または墓等に野の表にて捫る者はみな七日の間汚るべし
And anyone touching one who has been put to death with the sword in the open country, or the body of one who has come to his end by a natural death, or a man's bone, or the resting-place of a dead body, will be unclean for seven days.
17 汚れたる者ある時はかの罪を潔むる者たる燒る牝牛の灰をとりて器に入れ活水を之に加ふべし
And for the unclean, they are to take the dust of the burning of the sin-offering, and put flowing water on it in a vessel:
18 而して身の潔き人一人牛膝草を執てその水にひたし之をその天幕と諸の器皿および其處に居あはせたる人々に灑ぐべくまたは骨あるひは殺されし者あるひは死たる者あるひは墓などに捫れる者に灑ぐべし
And a clean person is to take hyssop and put it in the water, shaking it over the tent, and all the vessels, and the people who were there, and over him by whom the bone, or the body of one who has been put to death with the sword, or the body of one who has come to his end by a natural death, or the resting-place was touched.
19 即ち身の潔き人第三日と第七日にその汚れたる者に之を灑ぐべし而して第七日にはその人みづから身を潔むることを爲しその衣服をあらひ水に身を滌ぐべし然せば晩におよびて潔くなるべし
Let the clean person do this to the unclean on the third day and on the seventh day: and on the seventh day he is to make him clean; and after washing his clothing and bathing himself in water, he will be clean in the evening.
20 然ど汚れて身を潔ることを爲ざる人はヱホバの聖所を汚すが故にその身は會衆の中より絶るべし汚穢を潔むる水を身に灑がざるによりてその人は潔くならざるなり
But the man who, being unclean, does not make himself clean in this way, will be cut off from the meeting of the people, because he has made the holy place of the Lord unclean: the water has not been put on him, he is unclean.
21 彼等また永くこれを例とすべし即ち汚穢を潔むる水を人に灑げる者はその衣服を浣ふべしまた汚穢を潔むる水に捫れる者も晩まで汚るべし
This is to be a law for them for ever: he who puts the water on the unclean person is to have his clothing washed; and anyone touching the water will be unclean till evening.
22 凡て汚れたる人の捫れる者は汚るべしまた之に捫る人も晩まで汚るべし
Anything touched by the unclean person will be unclean; and any person touching it will be unclean till evening.
