< 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
And Yahweh spake unto Moses in the desert of Sinai, in the second year by their coming forth out of the land of Egypt in the first month, saying:
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
Let the sons of Israel therefore, keep the passover in its appointed season:
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
on the fourteenth day of this month between the two evenings, shall ye keep it, in its appointed season, —according to all the statute thereof and according to all the regulations thereof, shall ye keep it.
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
Then spake Moses unto the sons of Israel that they should keep 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
So they kept the passover in the first [month], on the fourteenth day of the month between the two evenings, in the desert of Sinai, —according to all that Yahweh commanded Moses, so, did the sons of Israel.
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 so it was that there were, certain men who had become unclean by a dead person, and could not keep the passover on that day, —therefore came they near before Moses and before Aaron on that 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
Then said those men unto him, We, are unclean by a dead person, —wherefore should we become of less esteem for want of offering the oblation of Yahweh in its appointed season, in the midst of the sons of Israel?
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
And Moses said unto them, —Stay, and let me hear, what Yahweh shall command concerning you!
Then spake Yahweh unto Moses, saying:
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
Speak unto the sons of Israel, saying, —Though, any man, be unclean by a dead person or be on a journey afar off, whether in the case of yourselves or of your generations, yet shall he keep a passover unto Yahweh.
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
In the second month, on the fourteenth day between the two evenings, shall they keep it, —with unleavened cakes and bitter herbs, shall they eat it.
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 shall not leave thereof until morning, and no bone, shall they break therein—according to all the statutes of the passover, shall they keep it.
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 as for the man who is, clean, and no a journey, doth not chance to be and yet faileth to keep the passover, that person shall he cut off from among his kinsfolk, —for the oblation of Yahweh, hath he not offered in its appointed season, his own sin, shall, that man, bear.
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
When moreover there may sojourn with you a sojourner, who would keep a passover unto Yahweh, according to the statute of the passover, and according to the regulation thereof, so, must he keep [it], —one statute, shall there be for you, both for the sojourner and for 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
Now, on the day the habitation was reared, the cloud covered the habitation, even the tent of the testimony, —and in the evening, it was over the habitation, like an appearance of fire, 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
Thus, came it to pass continually, the cloud, covered it, —and an appearance of fire, by night;
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
but at the bidding of the upgoings of the cloud from off the tent, then, after that, the sons of Israel set forward, —and in the place where the cloud abode, there the sons of Israel encamped:
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 bidding of Yahweh, the sons of Israel set forward, and at the bidding of Yahweh, they encamped, —all the days that the cloud abode upon the habitation, 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
And when the cloud lengthened out its stay upon the habitation, many days, then would the sons of Israel keep the watch of Yahweh, and would not set forward.
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
And, so it was, when the cloud would be a few days upon the habitation, at the bidding of Yahweh, they remained encamped, and at the bidding of Yahweh, they set forward.
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
And, so it was, when the cloud would be from evening until morning, as soon as the cloud went up in the morning, so soon did they set forward: whether by day or by night, as soon as the cloud went up, so soon did they set forward.
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 for two days or a month or a year, the cloud lengthened out its stay upon the habitation abiding thereupon, the sons of Israel remained encamped and set not forward, —but at the upgoings thereof, they set forward.
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
At the bidding of Yahweh, they encamped, and at the bidding of Yahweh, they set forward, —the watch of Yahweh, they kept, at the bidding of Yahweh by the hand of Moses.
