Ezra 8
1 Now these are the heads of their fathers’ households, and this is the genealogy of those who 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 listed by genealogy of the males one 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 Pahathmoab, 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 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 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 Of the sons of Shephatiah, Zebadiah the son of Michael; and with him eighty 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 Of the sons of Shelomith, the son of Josiphiah; and with him one hundred and sixty 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 Of the sons of Bebai, Zechariah the son of Bebai; and with him twenty-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 Of the sons of Azgad, Johanan the son of Hakkatan; and with him one 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 Of the sons of Adonikam, who were the last, their names are: Eliphelet, Jeuel, and Shemaiah; and with them sixty 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 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 I gathered them together to the river that runs to Ahava; and there we encamped three days. Then I looked around at the people and the priests, and found there were 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 I sent for Eliezer, for Ariel, for Shemaiah, for Elnathan, for Jarib, for Elnathan, for Nathan, for Zechariah, and for Meshullam, chief men; also for Joiarib and for Elnathan, who 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敎晦を施こす所のヨヤリブおよびエルナタンを招けり
17 I sent them out to Iddo the chief at the place Casiphia; and I told them what they should tell Iddo and his brothers the temple servants at the place Casiphia, that they should bring to 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 According to the good hand of our God on us they brought us a man of discretion, of the sons of Mahli, the son of Levi, the son of Israel, namely Sherebiah, with his sons and his brothers, 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 brothers 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 temple servants, whom David and the princes had given for the service of the Levites, two hundred and twenty temple servants. All of them were mentioned 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 from him a straight way for us, for our little ones, and for all our possessions.
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 on the way, because we had spoken to the king, saying, “The hand of our God is on all those who seek him, for good; but his power and his wrath is against all those who 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 begged our God for this, and he granted our request.
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たまへり
24 Then I set apart twelve of the chiefs of the priests, even Sherebiah, Hashabiah, and ten of their brothers 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 to them the silver, the gold, and the vessels, even the offering for the house of our God, which the king, his counsellors, 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 weighed into their hand six hundred and fifty talents of silver, one hundred talents of silver vessels, one hundred talents of gold,
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 twenty bowls of gold weighing one thousand darics, and two vessels of fine bright bronze, 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 I said to them, “You are holy to the LORD, and the vessels are holy. The silver and the gold are a free will offering to 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 and keep them until you weigh them before the chiefs of the priests, the Levites, and the princes of the fathers’ households of Israel at Jerusalem, in the rooms of the LORD’s house.”
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, the gold, and the vessels, to bring them to Jerusalem to 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 Ahava on the twelfth day of the first month, to go to Jerusalem. The hand of our God was on us, and he delivered us from the hand of the enemy and the bandits 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 We came to Jerusalem, and stayed 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 On the fourth day the silver and the gold and the vessels were 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 were 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ユ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 Everything was counted and weighed; 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, who had come out of exile, offered burnt offerings to the God of Israel: twelve bulls for all Israel, ninety-six rams, seventy-seven lambs, and twelve male goats for a sin offering. All this was a burnt offering to 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 They delivered the king’s commissions to the king’s local governors and to the governors beyond the River. So they supported the people and God’s house.
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
