民数記 32

1 ルベンの子孫とガドの子孫は甚だ多くの家畜の群を有り彼等ヤゼルの地とギレアデの地を觀るにその處は家畜に適き所なりければ

Now the children of Reuben and the children of Gad had a very great multitude of cattle: and when they saw the land of Jazer, and the land of Gilead, that behold, the place [was] a place for cattle;

2 ガドの子孫とルベンの子孫來りてモーセと祭司エレアザルと會衆の牧伯等に言けるは

The children of Gad and the children of Reuben came and spoke to Moses, and to Eleazar the priest, and to the princes of the congregation, saying,

3 アタロテ、デボン、ヤゼル、ニムラ、ヘシボン、エレアレ、シバム、ネボ、ベオン

Ataroth, and Dibon, and Jazer, and Nimrah, and Heshbon, and Elealeh, and Shebam, and Nebo, and Beon,

4 即ちヱホバがイスラエルの會衆の前に撃ほろぼしたまひし國は家畜に適き所なるが我らは家畜あり

[Even] the country which the LORD smote before the congregation of Israel, [is] a land for cattle, and thy servants have cattle:

5 また曰ふ然ば我らもし汝の目の前に恩を獲たらば請ふこの地を僕等に與へて產業となさしめ我らをしてヨルダンを濟ること無らしめよと斯いへり

Wherefore, said they, if we have found grace in thy sight, let this land be given to thy servants for a possession, [and] bring us not over Jordan.

6 モーセ、ガドの子孫とルベンの子孫に言けるは汝らの兄弟たちは戰ひに往に汝らは此に坐しをらんとするや

And Moses said to the children of Gad and to the children of Reuben, Shall your brethren go to war, and shall ye sit here?

7 汝ら何ぞイスラエルの子孫の心を挫きてヱホバのこれに賜ひし地に濟ることを得ざらしめんとするや

And why discourage ye the heart of the children of Israel from going over into the land which the LORD hath given them?

8 汝らの先祖等も我がカデシバルネアより其地を觀に遣せし時に然なせり

Thus did your fathers, when I sent them from Kadesh-barnea to see the land.

9 即ち彼らエシコルの谷に至りて其地を觀し時イスラエルの子孫の心を挫きて之をしてヱホバの賜ひし地に往ことを得ざらしめたり

For when they went up to the valley of Eshcol, and saw the land, they discouraged the heart of the children of Israel, that they should not go into the land which the LORD had given them.

10 その時ヱホバ怒を發し誓ひて言たまひけらく

And the LORD'S anger was kindled the same time, and he swore, saying,

11 エジプトより出きたれる人々の二十歳以上なる者は一人も我がアブラハム、イサク、ヤコブに誓ひたる地を見ざるべし其はかれら我に全くは從はざればなり

Surely none of the men that came up from Egypt, from twenty years old and upward, shall see the land which I swore to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob; because they have not wholly followed me:

12 第ケナズ人ヱフンネの子カルブとヌンの子ヨシユアとを除く此二人はヱホバに全く從ひたればなり

Save Caleb the son of Jephunneh the Kenezite, and Joshua the son of Nun: for they have wholly followed the LORD.

13 ヱホバかくイスラエルにむかひて怒を發し之をして四十年のあひだ曠野にさまよはしめたまひければヱホバの前に惡をなししその代の人みな終に亡ぶるに至れり

And the LORD'S anger was kindled against Israel, and he made them wander in the wilderness forty years, until all the generation that had done evil in the sight of the LORD was consumed.

14 抑汝らはその父に代りて起れる者即ち罪人の種にしてヱホバのイスラエルにむかひて懐たまふ烈しき怒を更に増んとするなり

And behold, ye have risen up in your fathers' stead, an increase of sinful men, to augment yet the fierce anger of the LORD towards Israel.

15 汝ら若反きてヱホバに從はずばヱホバまたこの民を曠野に遺おきたまはん然せば汝等すなはちこの民を滅ぼすにいたるべし

For if ye turn away from after him, he will yet again leave them in the wilderness; and he will destroy all this people.

16 彼らモーセの側に進みよりて言けるは我らは此に我らの群のために羊の圈を建我らの少者のために邑を建んとす

And they came near to him, and said, We will build sheep-folds here for our cattle, and cities for our little ones:

17 然ど我らはイスラエルの子孫をその處に導きゆくまでは身をよろひて之が前に奮ひ進まん第われらの少者はこの國に住る者等のために堅固なる邑に居ざるを得ず

But we ourselves will go ready armed before the children of Israel, until we have brought them to their place: and our little ones shall dwell in the fortified cities, because of the inhabitants of the land.

18 我らはイスラエルの子孫が皆おのおのその產業を獲までは我らの家に歸らじ

We will not return to our houses, until the children of Israel have inherited every man his inheritance.

19 我らはヨルダンの彼旁において彼らと偕に產業を獲ことを爲じ我らはヨルダンの此旁すなはち東の方に產業を獲ればなり

For we will not inherit with them on the other side of Jordan, or forward; because our inheritance hath fallen to us on this side of Jordan eastward.

20 モーセかれらに言けるは汝らもしこの事を爲し汝らみな身をよろひてヱホバの前に往て戰ひ

And Moses said to them, If ye will do this thing, if ye will go armed before the LORD to war,

21 汝ら皆身をよろひヱホバの前にゆきてヨルダンを濟りヱホバのその敵を己の前より逐はらひたまひて

And will go all of you armed over Jordan before the LORD, until he hath driven out his enemies from before him,

22 この國のヱホバに服ふにおよびて後汝ら歸ばヱホバの前にもイスラエルの前にも汝ら罪なかるべし然せばこの地はヱホバの前において汝らの產業とならん

And the land shall be subdued before the LORD: then afterward ye shall return, and be guiltless before the LORD, and before Israel; and this land shall be your possession before the LORD.

23 然ど汝らもし然せずば是ヱホバにむかひて罪を犯すなれば必ずその罪汝らの身におよぶと知べし

But if ye will not do so, behold, ye have sinned against the LORD: and be sure your sin will find you out.

24 汝らその少者のために邑を建てその羊のために圈を建よ而して汝らの口より出せるところを爲せ

Build you cities for your little ones, and folds for your sheep; and do that which hath proceeded out of your mouth.

25 ガドの子孫とルベンの子孫モーセにこたへて言けるはわが主の命じたまふごとく僕等行ふべし

And the children of Gad and the children of Reuben spoke to Moses, saying, Thy servants will do as my lord commandeth.

26 我らの少者と妻と羊と諸の家畜は此にギレアデの邑々に居べし

Our little ones, our wives, our flocks, and all our cattle, shall be there in the cities of Gilead:

27 然ど僕等はおのおの戰爭のために身をよろひてわが主の言たまふ如くヱホバの前に渉りゆきて戰ふべし

But thy servants will pass over, every man armed for war, before the LORD to battle, as my lord saith.

28 是においてモーセかれらの爲に祭司エレアザルとヌンの子ヨシユアとイスラエルの支派の族長等に命ずる事ありき

So concerning them Moses commanded Eleazar the priest, and Joshua the son of Nun, and the chief fathers of the tribes of the children of Israel:

29 すなはちモーセかれらに言けるはガドの子孫とルベンの子孫もし汝らとともにヨルダンを濟りゆき各箇身をよろひてヱホバの前に戰ひてこの地汝らに服ふにいたらば汝らギレアデの地をかれらに與へて產業となさしむべし

And Moses said to them, If the children of Gad and the children of Reuben will pass with you over Jordan, every man armed for battle, before the LORD, and the land shall be subdued before you; then ye shall give them the land of Gilead for a possession:

30 然ど彼らもし汝らとともに身をよろひて濟りゆかずば彼らはカナンの地に於て汝らの中に產業を獲ざる可らず

But if they will not pass over with you armed, they shall have possessions among you in the land of Canaan.

31 ガドの子孫とルベンの子孫こたへて言ふヱホバが僕等に言たまふごとく我ら爲べし

And the children of Gad and the children of Reuben answered, saying, As the LORD hath said to thy servants, so will we do.

32 我らは身をよろひてヱホバの前にカナンの地に濟りゆきヨルダンの此旁なる我らの產業を保つことを爲べし

We will pass over armed before the LORD into the land of Canaan, that the possession of our inheritance on this side Jordan [may be] ours.

33 是においてモーセはアモリ人の王シホンの國とバシヤンの王オグの國をもてガドの子孫とルベンの子孫とヨセフの子マナセの支派の半とに與へたり即ちその國およびその境の内の邑々とその邑々の周圍の地とを之に與ふ

And Moses gave to them, [even] to the children of Gad, and to the children of Reuben, and to half the tribe of Manasseh the son of Joseph, the kingdom of Sihon king of the Amorites, and the kingdom of Og king of Bashan, the land, with its cities in the borders, [even] the cities of the country around.

34 ガドの子孫はデボン、アタロテ、アロエル

And the children of Gad built Dibon, and Ataroth, and Aroer,

35 アテロテ、シヨバン、ヤゼル、ヨグベハ

And Atroth, Shophan, and Jaazer, and Jogbehah,

36 ベテニムラ、ベテハランなどの堅固なる邑を建て羊のために圈を建たり

And Beth-nimrah, and Beth-haran, fortified cities: and folds for sheep.

37 またルベンの子孫はヘシボン、エレアレ、キリヤタイム

And the children of Reuben built Heshbon, and Elealeh, and Kirjathaim,

38 ネボ、バアルメオン等の邑を建てその名を更めまたシブマの邑を建たりその建たる邑々には新しき名をつけたり

And Nebo, and Baal-meon, (their names being changed, ) and Shibmah: and gave other names to the cities which they built.

39 またマナセの子マキルの子孫はギレアデに至りてこれを取り其處にをりしアモリ人を逐はらひければ

And the children of Machir the son of Manasseh went to Gilead, and took it, and dispossessed the Amorite who [was] in it.

40 モーセ、ギレアデをマナセの子マキルに與へて其處に住しむ

And Moses gave Gilead to Machir the son of Manasseh; and he dwelt in it.

41 またマナセの子ヤイルは往てその村々を取りこれをハヲテヤイル(ヤイル村)と名けたり

And Jair the son of Manasseh went and took its small towns, and called them Havoth-jair.

42 またノバは往てケナテとその村々を取り自己の名にしたがひて之をノバと名けたり

And Nobah went and took Kenath, and its villages, and called it Nobah, after his own name.
