< Genesis 19 >

1 And the two angels came to Sodom at evening. And Lot sat by the gate of Sodom, and Lot having seen them, rose up to meet them, and he worshipped with his face to the ground, and said,
其二個の天使黄昏にソドムに至るロト時にソドムの門に坐し居たりしがこれを視起て迎へ首を地にさげて
2 Behold! [my] lords, turn aside to the house of your servant, and rest from your journey, and wash your feet, and having risen early in the morning you shall depart on your journey. And they said, Nay, but we will lodge in the street.
言けるは我主よ請ふ僕の家に臨み足を濯ひて宿りつとに起きて途に遄征たまへ彼等言ふ否我等は街衢に宿らんと
3 And he constrained them, and they turned aside to him, and they entered into his house, and he made a feast for them, and baked unleavened cakes for them, and they did eat.
然ど固く強ければ遂に彼の所に臨みて其家に入るロト乃ち彼等のために筵を設け酵いれぬパンを炊て食はしめたり
4 But before they went to sleep, the men of the city, the Sodomites, compassed the house, both young and old, all the people together.
斯て未だ寢ざる前に邑の人々即ちソドムの人老たるも若きも諸共に四方八方より來たれる民皆其家を環み
5 And they called out Lot, and said to him, Where are the men that went in to you this night? bring them out to us that we may be with them.
ロトを呼て之に言けるは今夕爾に就たる人は何處にをるや彼等を我等の所に携へ出せ我等之を知らん
6 And Lot went out to them to the porch, and he shut the door after him,
ロト入口に出て其後の戸を閉ぢ彼等の所に至りて
7 and said to them, By no means, brethren, do not act villanously.
言けるは請ふ兄弟よ惡き事を爲すなかれ
8 But I have two daughters, who have not known a man. I will bring them out to you, and do you use them as it may please you, only do not injury to these men, to avoid which they came under the shelter of my roof.
我に未だ男知ぬ二人の女あり請ふ我之を携へ出ん爾等の目に善と見ゆる如く之になせよ唯此人等は既に我家の蔭に入たれば何をも之になすなかれ
9 And they said to him, Stand back there, you came in to sojourn, was it also to judge? Now then we would harm you more than them. And they pressed hard on the man, even Lot, and they drew near to break the door.
彼等曰ふ爾退け又言けるは此人は來り寓れる身なるに恒に士師とならんとす然ば我等彼等に加ふるよりも多くの害を爾に加へんと遂に彼等酷しく其人ロトに逼り前よりて其戸を破んとせしに
10 And the men stretched forth their hands and drew Lot in to them into the house, and shut the door of the house.
彼二人其手を舒しロトを家の内に援いれて其戸を閉ぢ
11 And they struck the men that were at the door of the house with blindness, both small and great, and they were wearied with seeking the door.
家の入口にをる人衆をして大なるも小も倶に目を眩しめければ彼等遂に入口を索ぬるに困憊たり
12 And the men said to Lot, Hast you here sons-in-law, or sons or daughters, or if you have any other friend in the city, bring them out of this place.
斯て二人ロトに言けるは外に爾に屬する者ありや汝の婿子女および凡て邑にをりて爾に屬する者を此所より携へ出べし
13 For we are going to destroy this place; for their cry has been raised up before the Lord, and the Lord has sent us to destroy it.
此處の號呼ヱホバの前に大になりたるに因て我等之を滅さんとすヱホバ我等を遣はして之を滅さしめたまふ
14 And Lot went out, and spoke to his sons-in-law who had married his daughters, and said, Rise up, and depart out of this place, for the Lord is about to destroy the city; but he seemed to be speaking absurdly before his sons-in-law.
ロト出て其女を娶る婿等に告て言けるはヱホバが邑を滅したまふべければ爾等起て此處を出よと然ど婿等は之を戲言と視爲り
15 But when it was morning, the angels hastened Lot, saying, Arise and take your wife, and your two daughters whom you have, and go forth; lest you also be destroyed with the iniquities of the city.
曉に及て天使ロトを促して言けるは起て此なる爾の妻と二人の女を携へよ恐くは爾邑の惡とともに滅されん
16 And they were troubled, and the angels laid hold on his hand, and the hand of his wife, and the hands of his two daughters, in that the Lord spared him.
然るに彼遲延ひしかば二人其手と其妻の手と其二人の女の手を執て之を導き出し邑の外に置りヱホバ斯彼に仁慈を加へたまふ
17 And it came to pass when they brought them out, that they said, Save your own life by all means; look not round to that which is behind, nor stay in all the country round about, escape to the mountain, lest perhaps you be overtaken together with them.
既に之を導き出して其一人曰けるは逃遁て汝の生命を救へ後を回顧るなかれ低地の中に止るなかれ山に遁れよ否ずば爾滅されん
18 And Lot said to them, I pray, Lord,
ロト彼等に言けるはわが主よ請ふ斯したまふなかれ
19 since your servant has found mercy before you, and you have magnified your righteousness, in what you do towards me that my soul may live, —but I shall not be able to escape to the mountain, lest perhaps the calamity overtake me and I die.
視よ僕爾の目のまへに恩を得たり爾大なる仁慈を吾に施してわが生命を救たまふ吾山に遁る能はず恐くは災害身に及びて死るにいたらん
20 Behold this city is near for me to escape there, which is a small one, and there shall I be preserved, is it not little? and my soul shall live because of you.
視よ此邑は遁ゆくに近くして且小し我をして彼處に遁れしめよしからば吾生命全からん是は小き邑なるにあらずや
21 And he said to him, Behold, I have had respect to you also about this thing, that I should not overthrow the city about which you have spoken.
天使之にいひけるは視よ我此事に關ても亦爾の願を容たれば爾が言ふところの邑を滅さじ
22 Hasten therefore to escape there, for I shall not be able to do anything until you are come there; therefore he called the name of that city, Segor.
急ぎて彼處に遁れよ爾が彼處に至るまでは我何事をも爲を得ずと是に因て其邑の名はゾアル(小し)と稱る
23 The sun was risen upon the earth, when Lot entered into Segor.
ロト、ゾアルに至れる時日地の上に昇れり
24 And the Lord rained on Sodom and Gomorrha brimstone and fire from the Lord out of heaven.
ヱホバ硫黄と火をヱホバの所より即ち天よりソドムとゴモラに雨しめ
25 And he overthrew these cities, and all the country round about, and all that lived in the cities, and the plants springing out of the ground.
其邑と低地と其邑の居民および地に生るところの物を盡く滅したまへり
26 And his wife looked back, and she became a pillar of salt.
ロトの妻は後を回顧たれば鹽の柱となりぬ
27 And Abraam rose up early to go to the place, where he had stood before the Lord.
アブラハム其朝夙に起て其嘗てヱホバの前に立たる處に至り
28 And he looked towards Sodom and Gomorrha, and towards the surrounding country, and saw, and behold a flame went up from the earth, as the smoke of a furnace.
ソドム、ゴモラおよび低地の全面を望み見るに其地の烟燄窰の烟のごとくに騰上れり
29 And it came to pass that when God destroyed all the cities of the region round about, God remembered Abraam, and sent Lot out of the midst of the overthrow, when the Lord overthrew those cities in which Lot lived.
神低地の邑を滅したまふ時即ちロトの住る邑を滅したまふ時に當り神アブラハムを眷念て斯其滅亡の中よりロトを出したまへり
30 And Lot went up out of Segor, and lived in the mountain, he and his two daughters with him, for he feared to dwell in Segor; and he lived in a cave, he and his two daughters with him.
斯てロト、ゾアルに居ることを懼れたれば其二人の女と偕にゾアルを出て上りて山に居り其二人の女子とともに巖穴に住り
31 And the elder said to the younger, Our father is old, and there is no one on the earth who shall come in to us, as it is fit in all the earth.
茲に長女季女にいひけるは我等の父は老いたり又此地には我等に偶て世の道を成す人あらず
32 Come and let us make our father drink wine, and let us sleep with him, and let us raise up seed from our father.
然ば我等父に酒を飮せて與に寢ね父に由て子を得んと
33 So they made their father drink wine in that night, and the elder went in and lay with her father that night, and he knew not when he slept and when he rose up.
遂に其夜父に酒を飮せ長女入て其父と與に寢たり然るにロトは女の起臥を知ざりき
34 And it came to pass on the morrow, that the elder said to the younger, Behold, I slept yesternight with our father, let us make him drink wine in this night also, and do you go in and sleep with him, and let us raise up seed of our father.
翌日長女季女に言けるは我昨夜わが父と寢たり我等此夜又父に酒をのません爾入て與に寢よわれらの父に由て子を得ることをえんと
35 So they made their father drink wine in that night also, and the younger went in and slept with her father, and he knew not when he slept, nor when he arose.
乃ち其夜も亦父に酒をのませ季女起て父と與に寢たりロトまた女の起臥を知ざりき
36 And the two daughters of Lot conceived by their father.
斯ロトの二人の女其父によりて孕みたり
37 And the elder bore a son and called his name Moab, saying, [He is] of my father. This is the father of the Moabites to this present day.
長女子を生み其名をモアブと名く即ち今のモアブ人の先祖なり
38 And the younger also bore a son, and called his name Amman, saying, The son of my family. This is the father of the Ammanites to this present day.
季女も亦子を生み其名をベニアンミと名く即ち今のアンモニ人の先祖なり
