民数記 25
1 イスラエルはシッテムに止まり居けるがその民モアブの婦女等と婬をおこなふことを始めたり
Nowe whiles Israel abode in Shittim, the people began to commit whoredome with the daughters of Moab:
2 その婦女等其神々に犠牲を献る時に民を招けば民は往て食ふことを爲しかつその神々を拝めり
Which called the people vnto the sacrifice of their gods, and the people ate, and bowed downe to their gods.
3 イスラエルかくバアルベオルに附ければイスラエルにむかひてヱホバ怒を發したまへり
And Israel coupled himselfe vnto Baal Peor: wherefore the wrath of the Lord was kindled against Israel:
4 ヱホバすなはちモーセに告て言たまはく民の首をことごとく携きたりヱホバのためにかの者等を日に曝せ然せばヱホバの烈しき怒イスラエルを離るるあらんと
And the Lord sayde vnto Moses, Take all the heades of the people, and hang them vp before the Lord against ye sunne, that the indignation of the Lords wrath may be turned from Israel.
5 是においてモーセ、イスラエルの士師等にむかひ汝らおのおのその配下の人々のバアルベオルに附る者を殺せと言り
Then Moses sayd vnto the Iudges of Israel, Euery one slay his men that were ioyned vnto Baal Peor.
6 モーセとイスラエルの子孫の全會衆集合の幕屋の門にて哭をる時一箇のイスラエル人ミデアンの婦人一箇を携きたり彼らの目の前にてその兄弟等の中に至れり
And behold, one of the children of Israel came and brought vnto his brethren a Midianitish woman in the sight of Moses, and in the sight of all the Congregation of the children of Israel, who wept before the doore of the Tabernacle of the Congregation.
7 祭司アロンの子なるエレアザルの子ピネハスこれを見會衆の中より起あがりて槍を手に執り
And when Phinehas the sonne of Eleazar the sonne of Aaron the Priest sawe it, hee rose vp from the middes of the Congregation, and tooke a speare in his hand,
8 そのイスラエルの人の後を追て之が寝室に入りイスラエルの人を衝きまたその婦女の腹を衝とほして二人を殺せり是において疫病のイスラエルの子孫におよぶこと止れり
And followed ye man of Israel into the tent, and thrust them both through: to wit, the man of Israel, and the woman, through her belly: so the plague ceased from the children of Israel.
9 その疫病にて死たる者は二萬四千人なりき
And there died in that plague, foure and twentie thousand.
10 ヱホバ、モーセに告て言たまはく
Then the Lord spake vnto Moses, saying,
11 祭司アロンの子なるエレアザルの子ピネハスはわが熱心をイスラエルの子孫の中にあらはして吾怒をその中より取去り我として熱心をもてイスラエルの子孫を滅し盡すにいたらざらしめたり
Phinehas the sonne of Eleazar, the sonne of Aaron the Priest, hath turned mine anger away from the children of Israel, while hee was zealous for my sake among them: therefore I haue not consumed the children of Israel in my ielousie.
12 故に汝言へ我これに平和のわが契約をさづく
Wherefore say to him, Beholde, I giue vnto him my couenant of peace,
13 即ち彼とその後の子孫永く祭司の職を得べし是は彼その神のために熱心にしてイスラエルの子孫のために贖をなしたればなり
And he shall haue it, and his seede after him, euen the couenant of the priestes office for euer, because he was zealous for his God, and hath made an atonement for the children of Israel.
14 その殺されしイスラエル人すなはちミデアンの婦人とともに殺されし者はその名をジムリと言てサルの子にしてシメオン人の宗族の牧伯の一人なり
And the name of the Israelite thus slayne, which was killed with the Midianitish woman, was Zimri the sonne of Salu, prince of the familie of the Simeonites.
15 またその殺されしミデアンの婦人は名をコズビと曰てツルの女子なりツルはミデアンの民の宗族の首なり
And the name of the Midianitish woman, that was slayne, was Cozbi the daughter of Zur, who was head ouer the people of his fathers house in Midian.
16 ヱホバ、モーセに告て言たまはく
Againe ye Lord spake vnto Moses, saying,
17 ミデアン人に逼りてこれを撃て
Vexe the Midianites, and smite them:
18 其は彼ら謀計をもて汝に逼りペオルの事とその姉妹なるミデアンの牧伯の女すなはちペオルのために疫病の起れる日に殺されしコズビの事において汝らを惑したればなり
For they trouble you with their wiles, wherewith they haue beguiled you as concerning Peor, and as concerning their sister Cozbi ye daughter of a prince of Midian, which was slayne in the day of the plague because of Peor.
