創世記 35
1 茲に神ヤコブに言たまひけるは起てベテルにのぼりて彼處に居り汝が昔に兄エサウの面をさけて逃る時に汝にあらはれし神に彼處にて壇をきづけと
God said to Jacob [Supplanter], “Arise, go up to Beth-el [House of God], and live there. Make there an altar to God, who appeared to you when you fled from the face of Esau [Hairy] your brother.”
2 ヤコブ乃ちその家人および凡て己とともなる者にいふ汝等の中にある異神を棄て身を清めて衣服を易よ
Then Jacob [Supplanter] said to his household, and to all who were with him, “Put away the foreign deities that are among you, purify yourselves, change your garments.
3 我等起てベテルにのぼらん彼處にて我わが苦患の日に我に應へわが往ところの途にて我とともに在せし神に壇をきづくべし
Let us arise, and go up to Beth-el [House of God]. I will make there an altar to God, who answered me in the day of my distress, and was with me on the way which I went.”
4 是に於て彼等その手にある異神およびその耳にある耳環を盡くヤコブに與へしかばヤコブこれをシケムの邊なる橡樹の下に埋たり
They gave to Jacob [Supplanter] all the foreign deities which were in their hands, and the rings which were in their ears; and Jacob [Supplanter] hid them under the oak which was by Shechem.
5 斯て彼等いでたちしが神其四周の邑々をして懼れしめたまひければヤコブの子の後を追ふ者なかりき
They traveled, and a terror of God was on the cities that were around them, and they didn’t pursue the sons of Jacob [Supplanter].
6 ヤコブ及び之と共なる諸の人遂にカナンの地にあるルズに至る是即ちベテルなり
So Jacob [Supplanter] came to Luz (that is, Beth-el [House of God]), which is in the land of Canaan [Humbled], he and all the people who were with him.
7 彼かしこに壇をきづき其處をエルベテルと名けたり是は兄の面をさけて逃る時に神此にて己にあらはれ給しによりてなり
He built an altar there, and called the place El Beit-El [God of House of God]; because there God was revealed to him, when he fled from the face of his brother.
8 時にリベカの乳媼デボラ死たれば之をベテルの下にて橡樹の下に葬れり是によりてその樹の名をアロンバクテ（哀哭の橡）といふ
Deborah, Rebekah [Securely bound]’s nurse, died, and she was buried below Beth-el [House of God] under the oak; and its name was called Allon Bacuth.
9 ヤコブ、パダンアラムより歸りし時神復これにあらはれて之を祝したまふ
God appeared to Jacob [Supplanter] again, when he came from Paddan Aram [Elevated], and blessed him.
10 神かれに言たまはく汝の名はヤコブといふ汝の名は重てヤコブとよぶべからずイスラエルを汝の名となすべしとその名をイスラエルと稱たまふ
God said to him, “Your name is Jacob [Supplanter]. Your name shall not be Jacob [Supplanter] any more, but your name will be Israel [Wrestles with God / God prevails].” He named him Israel [God prevails].
11 神また彼にいひたまふ我は全能の神なり生よ殖よ國民および多の國民汝よりいで又王等なんぢの腰よりいでん
God said to him, “I am El Shaddai [God Almighty]. Be fruitful and multiply. A nation and a company of nations will be from you, and kings will come out of your body.
12 わがアブラハムおよびイサクに與し地は我これを汝にあたへん我なんぢの後の子孫にその地をあたふべしと
The land which I gave to Abraham [Father of a multitude] and Isaac [Laughter], I will give it to you, and to your offspring after you will I give the land.”
13 神かれと言たまひし處より彼をはなれて昇りたまふ
God went up from him in the place where he spoke with him.
14 是に於てヤコブ神の己と言いひたまひし處に柱すなはち石の柱を立て其上に酒を灌ぎまた其上に膏を沃げり
Jacob [Supplanter] set up a pillar in the place where he spoke with him, a pillar of stone. He poured out a drink offering on it, and poured oil on it.
15 而してヤコブ神の己にものいひたまひし處の名をベテルとなづけたり
Jacob [Supplanter] called the name of the place where God spoke with him “Beth-el [House of God]”.
16 かくてヤコブ等ベテルよりいでたちしがエフラタに至るまでは尚路の隔ある處にてラケル産にのぞみその産おもかりき
They traveled from Beth-el [House of God]. There was still some distance to come to Ephrath, and Rachel [Ewe sheep] travailed. She had hard labor.
17 彼難産にのぞめる時産婆之にいひけるは懼るなかれ汝また此男の子を得たり
When she was in hard labor, the midwife said to her, “Don’t be afraid, for now you will have another son.”
18 彼死にのぞみてその魂さらんとする時その子の名をベノニ（吾苦痛の子）と呼たり然ど其父これをベニヤミン（右手の子）となづけたり
As her soul was departing (for she died), she named him Benoni, but his father named him Benjamin [Son of right hand, Son of south].
19 ラケル死てエフラタの途に葬らる是即ちベテレヘムなり
Rachel [Ewe sheep] died, and was buried on the way to Ephrath (also called Bethlehem [House of Bread]).
20 ヤコブその墓に柱を立たり是はラケルの墓の柱といひて今日まで在り
Jacob [Supplanter] set up a pillar on her grave. The same is the Pillar of Rachel [Ewe sheep]’s grave to this day.
21 イスラエル復いでたちてエダルの塔の外にその天幕を張り
Israel [God prevails] traveled, and spread his tent beyond the tower of Eder.
22 イスラエルかの地に住る時にルベン往て父の妾ビルハと寢たりイスラエルこれを聞く夫ヤコブの子は十二人なり
While Israel [God prevails] lived in that land, Reuben [See, a son!] went and lay with Bilhah [Bashful], his father’s concubine, and Israel [God prevails] sh'ma ·heard obeyed· of it. Now the sons of Jacob [Supplanter] were twelve.
23 即ちレアの子はヤコブの長子ルベンおよびシメオン、レビ、ユダ、イッサカル、ゼブルンなり
The sons of Leah [Weary]: Reuben [See, a son!] (Jacob [Supplanter]’s firstborn), Simeon [Hearing], Levi [United with], Judah [Praised], Issachar [Hire, Reward], and Zebulun [Living together].
24 ラケルの子はヨセフとベニヤミンなり
The sons of Rachel [Ewe sheep]: Joseph [May he add] and Benjamin [Son of right hand, Son of south].
25 ラケルの仕女ビルハの子はダンとナフタリなり
The sons of Bilhah [Bashful] (Rachel [Ewe sheep]’s servant): Dan [He judged] and Naphtali [My wrestling].
26 レアの仕女ジルパの子はガドとアセルなり是等はヤコブの子にしてパダンアラムにて彼に生れたる者なり
The sons of Zilpah [Frailty] (Leah [Weary]’s servant): Gad [Good fortune] and Asher [Happy]. These are the sons of Jacob [Supplanter], who were born to him in Paddan Aram [Elevated].
27 ヤコブ、キリアテアルバのマムレにゆきてその父イサクに至れり是すなはちヘブロンなり彼處はアブラハムとイサクの寄寓しところなり
Jacob [Supplanter] came to Isaac [Laughter] his father, to Mamre [Bitter, Fatness], to Kiriath Arba (which is Hebron), where Abraham [Father of a multitude] and Isaac [Laughter] lived as foreigners.
28 イサクの齡は百八十歳なりき
The days of Isaac [Laughter] were one hundred eighty years.
29 イサク老て年滿ち氣息たえ死にて其民にくははれりその子エサウとヤコブ之をはうむる
Isaac [Laughter] gave up the spirit, and died, and was gathered to his people, old and full of days. Esau [Hairy] and Jacob [Supplanter], his sons, buried him.
