民数記 9
1 エジプトの國を出たる次の年の正月ヱホバ、シナイの野にてモーセに告ていひたまはく
In the first month of the second year after Israel had come out of the land of Egypt, the LORD spoke to Moses in the Wilderness of Sinai:
2 イスラエルの子孫をして逾越節をその期におよびて行はしめよ
“The Israelites are to observe the Passover at its appointed time.
3 其期即ち此月の十四日の晩にいたりて汝等これを行ふべし汝等これをおこなふにはその諸の條例とその諸の式法に循ふべきなり
You are to observe it at the appointed time, at twilight on the fourteenth day of this month, in accordance with its statutes and ordinances.”
4 是においてモーセ、イスラエルの子孫に逾越節を行ふべき事を告たれば
So Moses told the Israelites to observe the Passover,
5 彼等正月の十四日の晩にシナイの野にて逾越節を行へり即ちイスラエルの子孫はヱホバのモーセに命じたまへる所に盡く循ひてこれを爲ぬ
and they did so in the Wilderness of Sinai, at twilight on the fourteenth day of the first month. The Israelites did everything just as the LORD had commanded Moses.
6 時に人の死骸に身を汚して逾越節を行ふこと能ざる人々ありてその日にモーセとアロンの前にいたれり
But there were some men who were unclean due to a dead body, so they could not observe the Passover on that day. And they came before Moses and Aaron that same day
7 その人々すなはち彼に言ふ我等は人の死骸に身を汚したり然ば我らはその期におよびてイスラエルの子孫と偕にヱホバに禮物を献ることを得ざるべき乎
and said to Moses, “We are unclean because of a dead body, but why should we be excluded from presenting the LORD’s offering with the other Israelites at the appointed time?”
8 モーセかれらに言けるは姑く待てヱホバ汝らの事を如何に宣ふかを聽ん
“Wait here until I find out what the LORD commands concerning you,” Moses replied.
9 ヱホバ、モーセに告て言たまはく
Then the LORD said to Moses,
10 イスラエルの子孫に告て言へ汝等または汝等の子孫の中死屍に身を汚したる人も遠き途にある人も皆逾越節をヱホバにむかひて行ふべきなり
“Tell the Israelites: ‘When any one of you or your descendants is unclean because of a dead body, or is away on a journey, he may still observe the Passover to the LORD.
11 即ち二月の十四日の晩に之をおこなひ酵いれぬパンと苦菜をそへて之を食ふべし
Such people are to observe it at twilight on the fourteenth day of the second month. They are to eat the lamb, together with unleavened bread and bitter herbs;
12 朝までこれを少許も遺しおくべからず又その骨を一本も折べからず逾越節の諸の條例にしたがひて之を行ふべし
they may not leave any of it until morning or break any of its bones. They must observe the Passover according to all its statutes.
13 然ど人その身潔くありまた征途にもあらずして逾越節を行ふことをせざる時はその人民の中より斷れん斯る人はその期におよびてヱホバの禮物を持きたらざるが故にその罪を任べきなり
But if a man who is ceremonially clean and is not on a journey still fails to observe the Passover, he must be cut off from his people, because he did not present the LORD’s offering at its appointed time. That man will bear the consequences of his sin.
14 他國の人もし汝らの中に寄寓をりて逾越節をヱホバにおこなはんとせば逾越節の條例に依りその法式にしたがひて之をおこなふべし他國の人にも自國の人にもその條例は同一なるべし
If a foreigner dwelling among you wants to observe the Passover to the LORD, he is to do so according to the Passover statute and its ordinances. You are to apply the same statute to both the foreigner and the native of the land.’”
15 幕屋を建たる日に雲幕屋を蔽へり是すなはち律法の幕屋なり而して夕にいたれば幕屋の上に火のごとき者あらはれて朝におよべり
On the day that the tabernacle, the Tent of the Testimony, was set up, the cloud covered it and appeared like fire above the tabernacle from evening until morning.
16 即ち常に是のごとくにして晝は雲これを蔽ひ夜は火のごとき者ありき
It remained that way continually; the cloud would cover the tabernacle by day, and at night it would appear like fire.
17 雲幕屋を離れて上る時はイスラエルの子孫直に途に進みまた雲の止まる所にイスラエルの子孫營を張り
Whenever the cloud was lifted from above the Tent, the Israelites would set out, and wherever the cloud settled, there the Israelites would camp.
18 即ちイスラエルの子孫はヱホバの命によりて途に進みまたヱホバの命によりて營を張り幕屋の上に雲の止まれる間は營を張をれり
At the LORD’s command the Israelites set out, and at the LORD’s command they camped. As long as the cloud remained over the tabernacle, they remained encamped.
19 幕屋の上に雲の止ること日久しき時はイスラエルの子孫ヱホバの職守をまもりて途に進まざりき
Even when the cloud lingered over the tabernacle for many days, the Israelites kept the LORD’s charge and did not set out.
20 また幕屋の上に雲の止まる事日少き時も然り彼等は只ヱホバの命にしたがひて營を張りヱホバの命にしたがひて途に進めり
Sometimes the cloud remained over the tabernacle for only a few days, and they would camp at the LORD’s command and set out at the LORD’s command.
21 また雲夕より朝まで止り朝におよびてその雲昇る時は彼等途に進めり夜にもあれ晝にもあれ雲の昇る時は即ち途に進めり
Sometimes the cloud remained only from evening until morning, and when it lifted in the morning, they would set out. Whether it was by day or by night, when the cloud was taken up, they would set out.
22 二日にもあれ一月にもあれまたは其よりも多くの日にもあれ幕屋の上に雲の止り居る間はイスラエルの子孫營を張居て途に進まずその昇るにおよびて途に進めり
Whether the cloud lingered for two days, a month, or longer, the Israelites camped and did not set out as long as the cloud remained over the tabernacle; but when it was lifted, they would set out.
23 即ち彼等はヱホバの命にしたがひて營を張りヱホバの命にしたがひて途に進み且モーセによりて傳はりしヱホバの命にしたがひてヱホバの職守を守れり
They camped at the LORD’s command, and they set out at the LORD’s command; they carried out the LORD’s charge according to His command through Moses.
