< Ezra 8 >

1 Now these are the heads of their fathers’ [houses], and this is the genealogy of them that went up with me from Babylon, in the reign of Artaxerxes the king.
アルタシヤスタ王の治世に我とともにバビロンより上り來りし者等の宗家の長およびその系譜は左のごとし
2 Of the sons of Phinehas, Gershom: of the sons of Ithamar, Daniel: of the sons of David, Hattush.
ピネハスの子孫の中にてはゲルシヨム、イタマルの子孫の中にてはダニエル、ダビデの子孫の中にてはハットシ
3 Of the sons of Shecaniah; of the sons of Parosh, Zechariah: and with him were reckoned by genealogy of the males an hundred and fifty.
シカニヤの子孫の中パロシの子孫の中にてはゼカリヤ彼と偕にありて名簿に載られたる男子百五十人
4 Of the sons of Pahath-moab, Eliehoenai the son of Zerahiah; and with him two hundred males.
パハテモアブの子孫の中にてはゼラヒヤの子エリヨエナイ彼と偕なる男二百人
5 Of the sons of Shecaniah, the son of Jahaziel; and with him three hundred males.
シカニヤの子孫の中にてはヤハジエルの子 彼と偕なる男三百人
6 And of the sons of Adin, Ebed the son of Jonathan; and with him fifty males.
アデンの子孫の中にてはヨナタンの子エベデ彼とともなる男五十人
7 And of the sons of Elam, Jeshaiah the son of Athaliah; and with him seventy males.
エラムの子孫の中にてはアタリヤの子ヱサヤ彼と偕なる男七十人
8 And of the sons of Shephatiah, Zebadiah the son of Michael; and with him fourscore males.
シパテヤの子孫の中にてはミカエルの子ゼバデヤ彼とともなる男八十人
9 Of the sons of Joab, Obadiah the son of Jehiel; and with him two hundred and eighteen males.
ヨハブの子孫の中にてはヱヒエルの子オバデヤ彼とともなる男二百十八人
10 And of the sons of Shelomith, the son of Josiphiah; and with him an hundred and threescore males.
シロミテの子孫の中にてはヨシピアの子 彼とともなる男百六十人
11 And of the sons of Bebai, Zechariah the son of Bebai; and with him twenty and eight males.
ベバイの子孫の中にてはベバイの子ゼカリヤ彼と偕なる男二十八人
12 And of the sons of Azgad, Johanan the son of Hakkatan; and with him an hundred and ten males.
アズガデの子孫の中にてはハッカタンの子ヨハナン彼とともなる男百十人
13 And of the sons of Adonikam, [that were] the last; and these are their names, Eliphelet, Jeuel, and Shemaiah, and with them threescore males.
アドニカムの子孫の中の後なる者等あり 其名をエリペレテ、ユエル、シマヤといふ彼らと偕なる男六十人
14 And of the sons of Bigvai, Uthai and Zabbud; and with them seventy males.
ビグワイの子孫の中にてはウタイおよびザブデ彼等とともなる男七十人
15 And I gathered them together to the river that runneth to Ahava; and there we encamped three days: and I viewed the people, and the priests, and found there none of the sons of Levi.
我かれらをアハワに流るる所の河の邊に集めて三日が間かしこに天幕を張居たりしが我民と祭司とを閲せしにレビの子孫一人も其處に居ざりければ
16 Then sent I for Eliezer, for Ariel, for Shemaiah, and for Elnathan, and for Jarib, and for Elnathan, and for Nathan, and for Zechariah, and for Meshullam, chief men; also for Joiarib, and for Elnathan, which were teachers.
すなはち人を遣てエリエゼル、アリエル、シマヤ、エルナタン、ヤリブ、エルナタン、ナタン、ゼカリヤ、メシユラムなどいふ長たる人々を招きまた教晦を施こす所のヨヤリブおよびエルナタンを招けり
17 And I sent them forth unto Iddo the chief at the place Casiphia; and I told them what they should say unto Iddo, [and] his brethren the Nethinim, at the place Casiphia, that they should bring unto us ministers for the house of our God.
而して我カシピアといふ處の長イドの許に彼らを出し遣せり 即ち我カシピアといふ處にをるイドとその兄弟なるネテニ人に告ぐべき詞を之が口に授け我等の神の室のために役者を我儕に携へ來れと言けるが
18 And according to the good hand of our God upon us they brought us a man of discretion, of the sons of Mahli, the son of Levi, the son of Israel; and Sherebiah, with his sons and his brethren, eighteen;
我らの神よく我儕を助けたまひて彼等つひにイスラエルの子レビの子マヘリの子孫イシケセルを我らに携さへ來り又セレビヤといふ者およびその子等と兄弟十八人
19 and Hashabiah, and with him Jeshaiah of the sons of Merari, his brethren and their sons, twenty;
ハシヤビヤならびにメラリの子孫のヱサヤおよびその兄弟とその子等二十人を携へ
20 and of the Nethinim, whom David and the princes had given for the service of the Levites, two hundred and twenty Nethinim: all of them were expressed by name.
またネテニ人すなはちダビデとその牧伯等がレビ人に事へしむるために設けたりしネテニ人二百二十人を携へ來れり 此等の者は皆その名を掲げられたり
21 Then I proclaimed a fast there, at the river Ahava, that we might humble ourselves before our God, to seek of him a straight way, for us, and for our little ones, and for all our substance.
斯て我かしこなるアハワの河の邊にて斷食を宣傳へ我儕の神の前にて我儕身を卑し我らと我らの小き者と我らの諸の所有のために正しき途を示されんことを之に求む
22 For I was ashamed to ask of the king a band of soldiers and horsemen to help us against the enemy in the way: because we had spoken unto the king, saying, The hand of our God is upon all them that seek him, for good; but his power and his wrath is against all them that forsake him.
其は我儕さきに王に告て我らの神は己を求むる者を凡て善く助けまた己を棄る者にはその權能と震怒とをあらはしたまふと言しに因て我道路の敵を防ぎて我儕を護るべき歩兵と騎兵とを王に請ふを羞ぢたればなり
23 So we fasted and besought our God for this: and he was entreated of us.
かくてこのことを我ら斷食して我儕の神に求めけるに其祈禱を容れたまへり
24 Then I separated twelve of the chiefs of the priests, even Sherebiah, Hashabiah, and ten of their brethren with them,
時に我祭司の長十二人即ちセレビヤ、ハシヤビヤおよびその兄弟十人を之とともに擇び
25 and weighed unto them the silver, and the gold, and the vessels, even the offering for the house of our God, which the king, and his counsellors, and his princes, and all Israel there present, had offered:
金銀および器皿すなはち王とその議官とその牧伯と彼處の一切のイスラエル人とが我らの神の室のために獻げたる奉納物を量りて彼らに付せり
26 I even weighed into their hand six hundred and fifty talents of silver, and silver vessels an hundred talents; of gold an hundred talents;
その量りて彼らの手に付せし者は銀六百五十タラント銀の器百タラント金百タラントなりき
27 and twenty bowls of gold, of a thousand darics; and two vessels of fine bright brass, precious as gold.
また金の大斝二十あり一千ダリクに當るまた光り輝く精銅の器二箇あり その貴きこと金のごとし
28 And I said unto them, Ye are holy unto the LORD, and the vessels are holy; and the silver and the gold are a freewill offering unto the LORD, the God of your fathers.
而して我かれらに言り汝等はヱホバの聖者なり 此器皿もまた聖し又この金銀は汝らの先祖の神ヱホバに奉まつりし誠意よりの禮物なり
29 Watch ye, and keep them, until ye weigh them before the chiefs of the priests and the Levites, and the princes of the fathers’ [houses] of Israel, at Jerusalem, in the chambers of the house of the LORD.
汝等ヱルサレムに至りてヱホバの家の室に於て祭司レビ人の長等およびイスラエルの宗家の首等の前に量るまで之を伺ひ守るべしと
30 So the priests and the Levites received the weight of the silver and the gold, and the vessels, to bring them to Jerusalem unto the house of our God.
是に於て祭司およびレビ人その金銀および器皿をヱルサレムなる我らの神の室に携へゆかんとて其重にしたがひて之を受取れり
31 Then we departed from the river of Ahava on the twelfth [day] of the first month, to go unto Jerusalem: and the hand of our God was upon us, and he delivered us from the hand of the enemy and the lier in wait by the way.
我ら正月の十二日にアハワの河邊を出たちてヱルサレム赴きけるが我らの神その手を我らの上におき我らを救ひて敵の手また路に伏て窺ふ者の手に陷らしめたまはざりき
32 And we came to Jerusalem, and abode there three days.
我儕すなはちヱルサレムに至りて三日かしこに居しが
33 And on the fourth day was the silver and the gold and the vessels weighed in the house of our God into the hand of Meremoth the son of Uriah the priest; and with him was Eleazar the son of Phinehas; and with them was Jozabad the son of Jeshua, and Noadiah the son of Binnui, the Levites;
四日にいたりて我らの神の室においてその金銀および器皿をウリヤの子祭司メレモテの手に量り付せり ピネハスの子エレアザル彼に副ふ又ヱシュアの子ヨザバデおよびビンヌイの子ノアデヤの二人のレビ人かれらに副ふ
34 the whole by number and by weight: and all the weight was written at that time.
即ちその一々の重と數を査べ其重をことごとく其時かきとめたり
35 The children of the captivity, which were come out of exile, offered burnt offerings unto the God of Israel, twelve bullocks for all Israel, ninety and six rams, seventy and seven lambs, twelve he-goats for a sin offering: all this was a burnt offering unto the LORD.
俘囚の人々のその俘囚をゆるされて歸り來し者イスラエルの神に燔祭を獻げたり 即ちイスラエル全體にあたる牡牛十二を獻げまた牡羊九十六羔羊七十七罪祭の牡山羊十二を獻げたり 是みなヱホバにたてまつりし燔祭なり
36 And they delivered the king’s commissions unto the king’s satraps, and to the governors beyond the river: and they furthered the people and the house of God.
彼等王の勅諭を王の代官と河外ふの總督等に示しければその人々民を助けて神の室を建しむ
