Exodus 14
1 The Lord told Moses,
茲にヱホバ、モーセに告ていひ給ひけるは
2 “Tell the Israelites to turn back and set up camp near Pi-hahiroth, between Migdol and the sea. You are to camp beside the sea, opposite Baal-zephon.
イスラエルの子孫に言て轉回てミグドルと海の間なるピハヒロテの前にあたりてバアルゼポンの前に幕を張しめよ其にむかひて海の傍に幕を張るべし
3 Pharaoh will conclude about the Israelites: ‘They're wandering about the country in confusion—the desert has blocked them from leaving.’
パロ、イスラエルの子孫の事をかたりて彼等はその地に迷ひをりて曠野に閉こめられたるならんといふべければなり
4 I will give Pharaoh a stubborn attitude so that he will chase after them to get them back. But I will gain respect through what happens to Pharaoh and all his army, and the Egyptians will know that I am the Lord.” So the Israelites did as they were instructed.
我パロの心を剛愎にすべければパロ彼等の後を追はん我パロとその凡の軍勢に由て譽を得エジプト人をして吾ヱホバなるを知しめんと彼等すなはち斯なせり
5 When the king of Egypt found out that the Israelites had left in a hurry, Pharaoh and his officials changed their minds about what had happened and said, “What have we done? We have let all these Israelite slaves go!”
茲に民の逃さりたることエジプト王に聞えければパロとその臣下等民の事につきて心を變じて言ふ我等何て斯イスラエルを去しめて我に事ざらしむるがごとき事をなしたるやと
6 So Pharaoh had his chariot made ready and set out with his army.
パロすなはちその車を備へ民を將て己にしたがはしめ
7 He took 600 of his best chariots along with all the other chariots of Egypt, each with their officer-in-charge.
撰抜の戰車六百兩にエジプトの諸の戰車および其の諸の軍長等を率ゐたり
8 The Lord gave Pharaoh, king of Egypt, a stubborn attitude so he chased after the Israelites, who were leaving with their fists raised in triumph.
ヱホバ、エジプト王パロの心を剛愎にしたまひたれば彼イスラエルの子孫の後を追ふイスラエルの子孫は高らかなる手によりて出しなり
9 The Egyptians set out in pursuit—all Pharaoh's horses and chariots, horsemen and soldiers. They caught up with the Israelites while they were camped beside the sea near Pi-hahiroth, opposite Baal-zephon.
エジプト人等パロの馬、車およびその騎兵と軍勢彼等の後を追てそのバアルゼポンの前なるピハヒロテの邊にて海の傍に幕を張るに追つけり
10 The Israelites looked back and saw Pharaoh and the Egyptian army approaching. They were absolutely terrified and cried out to the Lord for help.
パロの近よりし時イスラエルの子孫目をあげて視しにエジプト人己の後に進み來りしかば痛く懼れたり是に於てイスラエルの子孫ヱホバに呼號り
11 They complained to Moses, “Were there no graves in Egypt that you had to bring us out here in the desert to die? What have you done to us by making us leave Egypt?
且モーセに言けるはエジプトに墓のあらざるがために汝われらをたづさへいだして曠野に死しむるや何故に汝われらをエジプトより導き出して斯我らに爲や
12 Didn't we tell you back in Egypt, ‘Leave us alone so that we can go on being slaves to the Egyptians’? It would have been better for us to be Egyptian slaves than to die here in the desert!”
我等がエジプトにて汝に告て我儕を棄おき我らをしてエジプト人に事しめよと言し言は是ならずや其は曠野にて死るよりもエジプト人に事るは善ればなり
13 But Moses said to the people, “Do not be afraid. Stand where you are and you will see how the Lord will save you today. The Egyptians you see right now, you will never see again!
モーセ民にいひけるは汝ら懼るるなかれ立てヱホバが今日汝等のために爲たまはんところの救を見よ汝らが今日見たるエジプト人をば汝らかさねて復これを見ること絶てなかるべきなり
14 The Lord is going to fight for you—you don't need to do anything.”
ヱホバ汝等のために戰ひたまはん汝等は靜りて居るべし
15 The Lord told Moses, “Why are you crying out to me for help? Tell the Israelites to move forward.
時にヱホバ、モーセにいひたまひけるは汝なんぞ我に呼はるやイスラエルの子孫に言て進みゆかしめよ
16 You are to pick up your walking stick and hold it out in your hand over the sea. Divide it so the Israelites can walk through the sea on dry ground.
汝杖を擧げ手を海の上に伸て之を分ちイスラエルの子孫をして海の中の乾ける所を往しめよ
17 I will give Egyptians a stubborn, hard-hearted attitude so that they will chase in after them. Then I will gain respect through what happens to Pharaoh and all his army, chariots, and horsemen.
我エジプト人の心を剛愎にすべければ彼等その後にしたがひて入るべし我かくしてパロとその諸の軍勢およびそ戰車と騎兵に囚て榮譽を得ん
18 The Egyptians will know that I am the Lord when I gain respect through Pharaoh, his chariots, and his horsemen.”
我がパロとその戰車と騎兵とによりて榮譽をえん時エジプト人は我のヱホバなるを知ん
19 The angel of God, who had been leading the Israelites, moved behind them. The pillar of cloud also moved from in front of them and stood behind them,
爰にイスラエルの陣營の前に行る神の使者移りてその後に行けり即ち雲の柱その前面をはなれて後に立ち
20 so that it was positioned between the Egyptian and Israelite camps. Though the cloud was in darkness on one side, but it lit up the night on the other. No one from either camp went near the other during the night.
エジプト人の陣營とイスラエル人の陣營の間に至りけるが彼がためには雲となり暗となり是がためには夜を照せり是をもて彼と是と夜の中に相近づかざりき
21 Then Moses held out his hand over the sea, and all through the night the Lord forced the sea back with a strong east wind, and turned the bottom of the sea into dry land. So the water was divided,
モーセ手を海の上に伸ければヱホバ終夜強き東風をもて海を退かしめ海を陸地となしたまひて水遂に分れたり
22 and the Israelites walked through the sea on dry ground, with walls of water to their right and left.
イスラエルの子孫海の中の乾ける所を行くに水は彼等の右左に墻となれり
23 The Egyptians chased after them—all Pharaoh's horses, chariots, and horsemen. They followed the Israelites into the sea.
エジプト人等パロの馬車、騎兵みなその後にしたがひて海の中に入る
24 But at the end of the night the Lord looked down on the Egyptian army from the pillar of fire and cloud, and he threw them into a panic.
暁にヱホバ火と雲との柱の中よりエジプト人の軍勢を望みエジプト人の軍勢を惱まし
25 He made their chariot wheels get stuck so it was hard for them to drive. The Egyptians shouted out, “Retreat! We must run from the Israelites because the Lord is fighting for them against us!”
其車の輪を脱して行に重くならしめたまひければエジプト人言ふ我儕イスラエルを離れて逃ん其はヱホバかれらのためにエジプト人と戰へばなりと
26 Then the Lord told Moses, “Hold out your hand over the sea, so that the water will pour back over the Egyptians and their chariots and horsemen.”
時にヱホバ、モーセに言たまひける汝の手を海の上に伸て水をエジプト人とその戰車と騎兵の上に流れ反らしめよと
27 So Moses held out his hand over the sea, and at dawn the sea returned to normal. As the Egyptians retreated, the Lord swept them into the sea.
モーセすなはち手を海の上に伸けるに夜明におよびて海本の勢力にかへりたればエジプト人之に逆ひて逃たりしがヱホバ、エジプト人を海の中に擲ちたまへり
28 The water poured back and covered the chariots and horsemen—the whole of Pharaoh's army that had chased after the Israelites into the sea. Not a single one of them survived.
即ち水流反りて戰車と騎兵を覆ひイスラエルの後にしたがひて海にいりしパロの軍勢を悉く覆へり一人も遺れる者あらざりき
29 But the Israelites had walked through the sea on dry ground, with walls of water to their right and left.
然どイスラエルの子孫は海の中の乾ける所を歩みしが水はその右左に墻となれり
30 The Lord saved the Israelites from the threat of the Egyptians—the Israelites saw the Egyptians lying dead on the shore.
斯ヱホバこの日イスラエルをエジプト人の手より救ひたまへりイスラエルはエジプト人が海邊に死をるを見たり
31 When the Israelites saw the great power that the Lord had used against the Egyptians, they were in awe of the Lord, and they trusted in him and in his servant Moses.
イスラエルまたヱホバがエジプト人に爲たまひし大なる事を見たり是に於て民ヱホバを畏れヱホバとその僕モーセを信じたり
