民数記 5
1 ヱホバ、モーセに告て言たまはく
Then the LORD said to Moses,
2 イスラエルの子孫に命じて癩病人と流出ある者と死骸に汚されたる者とを盡く營の外に出さしめよ
“Command the Israelites to send away from the camp anyone with a skin disease, anyone who has a bodily discharge, and anyone who is defiled by a dead body.
3 男女をわかたず汝等これを出して營の外に居しめ彼等をしてその營を汚さしむべからず我その諸營の中に住なり
You must send away male and female alike; send them outside the camp so they will not defile their camp, where I dwell among them.”
4 イスラエルの子孫かく爲して之を營の外に出せりすなはちヱホバのモーセに告たまひし如くにイスラエルの子孫然なしぬ
So the Israelites did this, sending such people outside the camp. They did just as the LORD had instructed Moses.
5 ヱホバまたモーセに告て言たまはく
And the LORD said to Moses,
6 イスラエルの子孫に告よ男または女もし人の犯す罪を犯してヱホバに悖りその身罪ある者とならば
“Tell the Israelites that when a man or woman acts unfaithfully against the LORD by committing any sin against another, that person is guilty
7 その犯せし罪を言あらはしその物の代價にその五分の一を加へてこれを己が罪を犯せる者に付してその償を爲べし
and must confess the sin he has committed. He must make full restitution, add a fifth to its value, and give all this to the one he has wronged.
8 然ど若その罪の償を受べき親戚その人にあらざる時はその罪の償をヱホバになして之を祭司に歸せしむべしまた彼のために用ひて贖をなすところの贖罪の牡羊も祭司に歸す
But if the man has no relative to whom restitution can be made for the wrong, the restitution belongs to the LORD and must be given to the priest along with the ram of atonement, by which the atonement is made for him.
9 イスラエルの子孫の擧祭となして祭司に携へ來る所の聖物は皆祭司に歸す
Every sacred contribution the Israelites bring to the priest shall belong to him.
10 諸の人の聖別て献る物は祭司に歸し凡て人の祭司に付す物は祭司に歸するなり
Each man’s sacred gifts are his own, but whatever he gives to the priest will belong to the priest.”
11 ヱホバ、モーセに告て言たまはく
Then the LORD said to Moses,
12 イスラエルの子孫に告てこれに言へ人の妻道ならぬ事を爲てその夫に罪を犯すあり
“Speak to the Israelites and tell them that if any man’s wife goes astray and is unfaithful to him
13 人かれと交合したるにその事夫の目にかくれて露顯ず彼その身を汚したれどこれが證人となる者なく彼またその時に執へられもせざるあり
by sleeping with another man, and it is concealed from her husband and her impurity is undetected (since there is no witness against her and she was not caught in the act),
14 すなはち妻その身を汚したる事ありて夫猜疑の心を起してその妻を疑ふことあり又は妻その身を汚したる事なきに夫猜疑の心を起してその妻を疑ふことある時は
and if a feeling of jealousy comes over her husband and he suspects his wife who has defiled herself—or if a feeling of jealousy comes over him and he suspects her even though she has not defiled herself—
15 夫その妻を祭司の許に携へきたり大麥の粉一エパの十分の一をこれがために禮物として持きたるべしその上に油を灌べからずまた乳香を加ふべからず是は猜疑の禮物記念の禮物にして罪を誌えしむる者なればなり
then he is to bring his wife to the priest. He must also bring for her an offering of a tenth of an ephah of barley flour. He is not to pour oil over it or put frankincense on it, because it is a grain offering for jealousy, an offering of memorial as a reminder of iniquity.
16 祭司はまたその婦人を近く進ませてヱホバの前に立しめ
The priest is to bring the wife forward and have her stand before the LORD.
17 瓦の器に聖水を入れ幕屋の下の地の土を取てその水に放ち
Then he is to take some holy water in a clay jar and put some of the dust from the tabernacle floor into the water.
18 其婦人をヱホバの前に立せ婦人にその頭を露さしめて記念の禮物すなはち猜疑の禮物をその手に持すべし而して祭司は詛を來らするとこるの苦き水を手に執り
After the priest has the woman stand before the LORD, he is to let down her hair and place in her hands the grain offering of memorial, which is the grain offering for jealousy. The priest is to hold the bitter water that brings a curse.
19 婦を誓せてこれに言べし人もし汝と寝たる事あらず汝また汝の夫を措て道ならぬ事を爲て汚穢に染しこと無ば詛を來する此苦水より害を受ること有ざれ
And he is to put the woman under oath and say to her, ‘If no other man has slept with you and you have not gone astray and become defiled while under your husband’s authority, may you be immune to this bitter water that brings a curse.
20 然ど汝もし汝の夫を措き道ならぬ事を爲てその身を汚し汝の夫ならざる人と寝たる事あらば
But if you have gone astray while under your husband’s authority and have defiled yourself and lain carnally with a man other than your husband’—
21 (祭司その婦人をして詛を來らする誓をなさしめて祭司その婦人に言べし)ヱホバ汝の腿を痩しめ汝の腹を脹れしめ汝をして汝の民の指て詛ふ者指て誓ふ者とならしめたまへ
and the priest shall have the woman swear under the oath of the curse—‘then may the LORD make you an attested curse among your people by making your thigh shrivel and your belly swell.
22 また詛を來らするこの水汝の腸にいりて汝の腹を脹れさせ汝の腿を痩させんとその時婦人はアーメン、アーメンと言べし
May this water that brings a curse enter your stomach and cause your belly to swell and your thigh to shrivel.’ Then the woman is to say, ‘Amen, Amen.’
23 而して祭司この詛を書に筆記しその苦水にて之を洗おとし
And the priest shall write these curses on a scroll and wash them off into the bitter water.
24 婦人をしてその詛を來らする水を飮しむべしその詛を來らする水かれの中にいりて苦ならん
He is to have the woman drink the bitter water that brings a curse, and it will enter her and cause her bitter suffering.
25 祭司まづその婦人の手より猜疑の禮物を取りその禮物をヱホバの前に搖てこれを壇に持來り
The priest shall take from her hand the grain offering for jealousy, wave it before the LORD, and bring it to the altar.
26 而して祭司其禮物の中より記念の分一握をとりて之を壇の上に焚き然る後婦人にその水を飮しむべし
Then the priest is to take a handful of the grain offering as a memorial portion and burn it on the altar; after that he is to have the woman drink the water.
27 その水を之に飮しめたる時はもしかれその身を汚し夫に罪を犯したる事あるに於てはその詛を來らする水かれの中に入て苦くなりその腹脹れその腿痩て自己はその民の指て詛ふ者とならん
When he has made her drink the water, if she has defiled herself and been unfaithful to her husband, then the water that brings a curse will enter her and cause bitter suffering; her belly will swell, her thigh will shrivel, and she will become accursed among her people.
28 然ど彼もしその身を汚しし事あらずして潔からば害を受ずして能く子を生ん
But if the woman has not defiled herself and is clean, she will be unaffected and able to conceive children.
29 是すなはち猜疑の律法なり妻たる者その夫を措き道ならぬ事を爲て身を汚しし時
This is the law of jealousy when a wife goes astray and defiles herself while under her husband’s authority,
30 また夫たる者猜疑の心を起してその妻を疑ふ時はその婦人をヱホバの前におきて祭司その律法のごとく之に行ふべきなり
or when a feeling of jealousy comes over a husband and he suspects his wife. He is to have the woman stand before the LORD, and the priest is to apply to her this entire law.
31 斯せば夫は罪なく妻はその罪を任ん
The husband will be free from guilt, but the woman shall bear her iniquity.”
