民数記 21
1 茲に南の方に住るカナン人アラデ王といふ者イスラエルが間者の道よりして來るといふを聞きイスラエルを攻うちてその中の數人を擄にせり
When King Arad the Canaanite, which dwelt toward the South, heard tel that Israel came by the way of the spies, then fought hee against Israel, and tooke of them prysoners.
2 是においてイスラエル誓願をヱホバに立て言ふ汝もしこの民をわが手に付したまはば我その城邑を盡く滅さんと
So Israel vowed a vowe vnto the Lord, and said, If thou wilt deliuer and giue this people into mine hand, then I wil vtterly destroy their cities.
3 ヱホバすなはちイスラエルの言を聽いれてカナン人を付したまひければ之とその城邑をことごとく滅せり是をもてその處の名をホルマ(殲滅)と呼なしたり
And the Lord heard the voyce of Israel, and deliuered them the Canaanites: and they vtterly destroied them and their cities, and called ye name of the place Hormah.
4 民はホル山より進みゆき紅海の途よりしてエドムを繞り通らんとせしがその途のために民心を苦めたり
After, they departed from the mount Hor by the way of the red Sea, to compasse the land of Edom: and the people were sore grieued because of the way.
5 すなはち民神とモーセにむかいて呟きけるは汝等なんぞ我らをエジプトより導きのぼりて曠野に死しめんとするや此には食物も無くまた水も無し我等はこの粗き食物を心に厭ふなりと
And the people spake against God and against Moses, saying, Wherefore haue ye brought vs out of Egypt, to die in the wildernesse? for here is neither bread nor water, and our soule lotheth this light bread.
6 是をもてヱバホ火の蛇を民の中に遣して民を咬しめたまひければイスラエルの民の中死る者多かりき
Wherefore the Lord sent fierie serpents among ye people, which stung the people: so that many of the people of Israel died.
7 是によりて民モーセにいたりて言けるは我らヱホバと汝にむかひて呟きて罪を獲たり請ふ汝ヱホバに祈りて蛇を我等より取はなさしめよとモーセすなはち民のために祈ければ
Therefore the people came to Moses and said, We haue sinned: for wee haue spoken against the Lord, and against thee: pray to the Lord, that he take away the serpents from vs: and Moses prayed for the people.
8 ヱホバ、モーセに言たまひけるは汝蛇を作りてこれを杆の上に載おくべし凡て咬れたる者は之を仰ぎ觀なば生べし
And the Lord said vnto Moses, Make thee a fiery serpent, and set it vp for a signe, that as many as are bitten, may looke vpon it, and liue.
9 モーセすなはち銅をもて一條の蛇をつくり之を杆の上に載おけり凡て蛇に咬れたる者その銅の蛇を仰ぎ觀ば生たり
So Moses made a serpent of brasse, and set it vp for a signe: and when a serpent had bitten a man, then he looked to the serpent of brasse, and liued.
10 イスラエルの子孫途に進みてオボテに營を張り
And ye children of Israel departed thence, and pitched in Oboth.
11 またオボテより進み往きモアブの東の方に亘るところの曠野においてイヱアバリムに營を張り
And they departed from Oboth, and pitched in lie-abarim, in the wildernesse, which is before Moab on the Eastside.
12 また其處より進みゆきてゼレデの谷に營を張り
They remoued thence, and pitched vpon the riuer of Zared.
13 其處より進みゆきてアルノンの彼旁に營を張りアルノンはアモリの境より出て曠野に流るる者にてモアブとアモリの間にありてモアブの界をなすなり
Thence they departed, and pitched on the other side of Arnon, which is in the wildernesse, and commeth out of the coasts of the Amorites: (for Arnon is the border of Moab, betweene the Moabites and the Amorites)
14 故にヱホバの戰爭の記に言るあり云くスパのワヘブ、アルノンの河
Wherefore it shall be spoken in the booke of the battels of the Lord, what thing he did in the red sea, and in the riuers of Arnon,
15 河の流即ちアルの邑に落下りモアブの界に倚る者と
And at the streame of the riuers that goeth downe to the dwelling of Ar, and lieth vpon the border of Moab.
16 かれら其處よりベエル(井)にいたれりヱホバがモーセにむかひて汝民を集めよ我これに水を與へんと言たまひしはこの井なりき
And from thence they turned to Beer: the same is the well where the Lord said vnto Moses, Assemble the people, and I wil giue them water.
17 時にイスラエルこの歌を歌へり云く井の水よ湧あがれ汝等これがために歌へよ
Then Israel sang this song, Rise vp well, sing ye vnto it.
18 此井は笏と杖とをもて牧伯等これを掘り民の君長等之を掘りと斯て曠野よりマツタナにいたり
The princes digged this well, the captaines of the people digged it, euen the lawe giuer, with their staues. And from the wildernesse they came to Mattanah,
19 マツタナよりナハリエルにいたりナハリエルよりバモテにいたり
And from Mattanah to Nahaliel, and from Nahaliel to Bamoth,
20 バモテよりモアブの野にある谷に往き曠野に對するピスガの嶺にいたれり
And from Bamoth in the valley, that is in the plaine of Moab, to the top of Pisgah that looketh toward Ieshimon.
21 かくてイスラエル使者をアモリ人の王シホンに遣して言しめけるは
Then Israel sent messengers vnto Sihon, King of the Amorites, saying,
22 我をして汝の國を通過しめよ我等は田畝にも葡萄園にも入じまた井の水をも飮じ我らは汝の境を出るまでは唯王の道を通りて行んのみと
Let me goe through thy land: we wil not turne aside into the fieldes, nor into the vineyardes, neither drinke of the waters of ye welles: we will goe by the kings way, vntill we be past thy countrey.
23 然るにシホンはイスラエルに自己の境の中を通る事を容さざりき而してシホンその民をことごとく集め曠野にいでてイスラエルを攻んとしヤハヅに來りてイスラエルと戰ひけるが
But Sihon gaue Israel no licence to passe through his countrey, but Sihon assembled all his people, and went out against Israel into the wildernesse: and he came to Iahoz, and fought against Israel.
24 イスラエル刄をもて之を撃やぶりその地をアルノンよりヤボクまで奪ひ取りアンモンの子孫にまで至れりアンモンの子孫の境界は堅固なりき
But Israel smote him with the edge of the sword, and conquered his land, from Arnon vnto Iabok, euen vnto ye children of Ammon: for the border of the children of Ammon was strong.
25 イスラエルかくその城邑を盡く取り而してイスラエルはアモリ人の諸の城邑に住みヘシボンとそれに附る諸の村々に居る
And Israel tooke al these cities, and dwelt in all the cities of the Amorites in Heshbon and in all the villages thereof.
26 ヘシボンはアモリ人の王シホンの都城なりシホンは曾てモアブの前の王と戰ひてかれの地をアルノンまで盡くその手より奪ひ取しなり
For Heshbon was the citie of Sihon the king of the Amorites, which had fought beforetime against the king of the Moabites, and had taken al his land out of his hand, euen vnto Arnon.
27 故に歌をもて云るあり曰く汝らヘシボンに來れシホンの城邑を築き建よ
Wherefore they that speake in prouerbes, say, Come to Heshbon, let the citie of Sihon bee built and repaired:
28 ヘシボンより火出でシホンの都城より熖いでてモアブのアルを焚つくしアルノンの邊の高處を占る君王等を滅ぼせり
For a fire is gone out of Heshbon, and a flame from the citie of Sihon, and hath consumed Ar of the Moabites, and the lords of Bamoth in Arnon.
29 モアブよ汝は禍なる哉ケモシの民よ汝は滅ぼさるその男子は逃奔りその女子はアモリ人の王シホンに擄らるるなり
Wo be to thee, Moab: O people of Chemosh, thou art vndone: he hath suffered his sonnes to be pursued, and his daughters to be in captiuitie to Sihon the king of the Amorites.
30 我等は彼らを撃たふしヘシボンを滅ぼしてデボンに及び之を荒してまたノパに及びメデバにいたる
Their empire also is lost from Heshbon vnto Dibon, and wee haue destroyed them vnto Nophah, which reacheth vnto Medeba.
31 斯イスラエルの子孫はアモリ人の地に住たりしが
Thus Israel dwelt in the lande of the Amorites.
32 モーセまた人を遣はしてヤゼルを窺はしめ遂にその村々を取て其處にをりしアモリ人を逐出し
And Moses sent to searche out Iaazer, and they tooke the townes belonging thereto, and rooted out the Amorites that were there.
33 轉てバシヤンの路に上り往きけるにバシヤンの王オグその民を盡く率ゐて出で之を迎へてエデレイに戰はんとす
And they turned and went vp toward Bashan: and Og the King of Bashan came out against them, hee, and all his people, to fight at Edrei.
34 ヱホバ、モーセに言たまひけるは彼を懼るる勿れ我かれとその民とその地を盡く汝の手に付す汝ヘシボンに住をりしアモリ人の王シホンに爲たるごとくに彼にも爲べしと
Then the Lord said vnto Moses, Feare him not: for I haue deliuered him into thine hand and all his people, and his land: and thou shalt do to him as thou diddest vnto Sihon the king of the Amorites, which dwelt at Heshbon.
35 是において彼とその子とその民をことごとく撃ころし一人も生存る者なきに至らしめて之が地を奪ひたり
They smote him therefore, and his sonnes, and all his people, vntill there was none left him: so they conquered his land.
