申命記 11

1 然ば汝の神ヱホバを愛し常にその職守と法度と律法と誡命とを守るべし

'And thou hast loved Jehovah thy God, and kept His charge, and His statutes, and His judgments, and His commands, all the days;

2 汝らの子女は知ずまた見ざれば我これに言ず惟汝らに言ふ汝らは今日すでに汝らの神ヱホバの懲戒とその大なる事とその強き手とその伸たる腕とを知り

and ye have known to-day — for it is not your sons who have not known, and who have not seen the chastisement of Jehovah your God, His greatness, His strong hand, and His stretched-out arm,

3 またそのエジプトの中においてエジプト王パロとその全國にむかひておこなひたまひし徴證と行爲とを知り

and His signs, and His doings, which He hath done in the midst of Egypt, to Pharaoh king of Egypt, and to all his land;

4 またヱホバがエジプトの軍勢とその馬とその車とに爲たまひし事すなはち彼らが汝らの後を追きたれる時に紅海の水を彼らの上に覆ひかからしめ之を滅ぼして今日までその跡方なからしめし事を知り

and that which He hath done to the force of Egypt, to its horses, and to its chariot, when He hath caused the waters of the Red Sea to flow against their faces in their pursuing after them, and Jehovah destroyeth them, unto this day;

5 また此處にいたるまで曠野に於て汝らに爲たまひし事等を知り

and that which He hath done to you in the wilderness, till your coming in unto this place;

6 またそのルベンの子孫なるエリアブの子等ダタンとアビラムに爲たまひし事すなはちイスラエルの全家の眞中において地その口を啓きて彼らとその家族とその天幕とその足下に立つ者とを呑つくしし事を知なり

and that which He hath done to Dathan, and to Abiram, sons of Eliab, sons of Reuben, when the earth hath opened her mouth and swalloweth them, and their houses, and their tents, and all that liveth, which is at their feet, in the midst of all Israel:

7 即ち汝らはヱホバの行ひたまひし此諸の大なる作爲を目に覩たり

' — But [it is] your eyes which are seeing all the great work of Jehovah, which He hath done;

8 然ば汝ら我今日汝らに命ずる誡命を盡く守るべし然せば汝らは強くなり汝らが濟りゆきて獲んとする地にいりて之を獲ことを得

and ye have kept all the command which I am commanding thee to-day, so that ye are strong, and have gone in, and possessed the land whither ye are passing over to possess it,

9 またヱホバが汝らと汝らの後の子孫にあたへんと汝らの先祖等に誓たまひし地乳と蜜との流るる國において汝らの日を長うすることを得ん

and so that ye prolong days on the ground which Jehovah hath sworn to your fathers to give to them and to their seed — a land flowing with milk and honey.

10 汝らが進みいりて獲んとする地は汝らが出來りしエジプトの地のごとくならず彼處にては汝ら種を播き足をもて之に灌漑げりその状蔬菜園におけるが如し

'For the land whither thou art going in to possess it, is not as the land of Egypt whence ye have come out, where thou sowest thy seed, and hast watered with thy foot, as a garden of the green herb;

11 然ど汝らが濟りゆきて獲ところの地は山と谷の多き地にして天よりの雨水を吸ふなり

but the land whither ye are passing over to possess it, [is] a land of hills and valleys; of the rain of the heavens it drinketh water;

12 その地は汝の神ヱホバの顧みたまふ者にして年の始より年の終まで汝の神ヱホバの目常にその上に在り

a land which Jehovah thy God is searching; continually [are] the eyes of Jehovah thy God upon it, from the beginning of the year even unto the latter end of the year.

13 汝らもし我今日なんぢらに命ずる吾命令を善守りて汝らの神ヱホバを愛し心を盡し精神を盡して之に事へなば

'And it hath been — if thou hearken diligently unto My commands which I am commanding you to-day, to love Jehovah your God, and to serve Him with all your heart, and with all your soul —

14 我なんぢらの地の雨を秋の雨春の雨ともに時に隨ひて降し汝らをしてその穀物を收入しめ且酒と油を獲せしめ

that I have given the rain of your land in its season — sprinkling and gathered — and thou hast gathered thy corn, and thy new wine, and thine oil,

15 また汝の家畜のために野に草を生ぜしむべし汝は食ひて飽ん

and I have given herbs in thy field for thy cattle, and thou hast eaten, and been satisfied.

16 汝ら自ら愼むべし心迷ひ翻へりて他の神々に事へこれを拝む勿れ

'Take heed to yourselves, lest your heart be enticed, and ye have turned aside, and served other gods, and bowed yourselves to them,

17 恐くはヱホバ汝らにむかひて怒を發して天を閉たまひ雨ふらず地物を生ぜずなりて汝らそのヱホバに賜れる美地より速かに滅亡るに至らん

and the anger of Jehovah hath burned against you, and He hath restrained the heavens, and there is no rain, and the ground doth not give her increase, and ye have perished hastily from off the good land which Jehovah is giving to you.

18 汝ら是等の我言を汝らの心と魂との中に蔵めまた之を汝らの手に結びて徴となし汝らの目の間におきて誌となし

'And ye have placed these my words on your heart, and on your soul, and have bound them for a sign on your hand, and they have been for frontlets between your eyes;

19 之をなんぢらの子等に敎へ家に坐する時も路を歩む時も寝る時も興る時もこれを語り

and ye have taught them to your sons, by speaking of them in thy sitting in thy house, and in thy going in the way, and in thy lying down, and in thy rising up,

20 また汝の家の柱となんぢの門に之を書記べし

and hast written them on the side-posts of thy house, and on thy gates,

21 然せばヱホバが汝らの先祖等に與へんと誓ひたまひし地に汝らのをる日および汝らの子等のをる日は數多くして天の地を覆ふ日の久きが如くならん

so that your days are multiplied, and the days of your sons, on the ground which Jehovah hath sworn to your fathers to give to them, as the days of the heavens on the earth.

22 汝らもし我が汝らに命ずる此一切の誡命を善く守りてこれを行ひ汝等の神ヱホバを愛しその一切の道に歩み之に附從がはば

'For, if ye diligently keep all this command which I am commanding you — to do it, to love Jehovah your God, to walk in all His ways, and to cleave to Him,

23 ヱホバこの國々の民をことごとく汝らの前より逐はらひたまはん而して汝らは己よりも大にして能力ある國々を獲にいたるべし

then hath Jehovah dispossessed all these nations from before you, and ye have possessed nations, greater and mightier than you;

24 凡そ汝らが足の蹠にて踏む處は皆汝らの有とならん即ち汝らの境界は曠野よりレバノンに亘りまたユフラテ河といふ河より西の海に亘るべし

every place on which the sole of your foot treadeth is yours; from the wilderness, and Lebanon, from the river, the river Phrat, even unto the farther sea is your border;

25 汝らの前に立ことを得る人あらじ汝らの神ヱホバ汝らが踏いるところの地の人々をして汝らを怖ぢ汝らを畏れしめたまふこと其嘗て汝らに言たまひし如くならん

no man doth station himself in your presence; your dread and your fear doth Jehovah your God put on the face of all the land on which ye tread, as He hath spoken to you.

26 視よ我今日汝らの前に祝福と呪詛とを置く

'See, I am setting before you to-day a blessing and a reviling:

27 汝らもし我が今日なんぢらに命ずる汝らの神ヱホバの誡命に遵はば祝福を得ん

the blessing, when ye hearken unto the commands of Jehovah your God, which I am commanding you to-day;

28 汝らもし汝らの神ヱホバの誡命に遵はず翻へりて我が今日なんぢらに命ずる道を離れ素知ざりし他の神々に從がひなば呪詛を蒙らん

and the reviling, if ye do not hearken unto the commands of Jehovah your God, and have turned aside out of the way which I am commanding you to-day, to go after other gods which ye have not known.

29 汝の神ヱホバ汝が往て獲んとする地に汝を導きいりたまふ時は汝ゲリジム山に祝福を置きエバル山に呪詛をおくべし

'And it hath been, when Jehovah thy God doth bring thee in unto the land whither thou art going in to possess it, that thou hast given the blessing on mount Gerizim, and the reviling on mount Ebal;

30 この二山はヨルダンの彼旁アラバに住るカナン人の地において日の出る方の道の後にありギルガルに對ひてモレの橡樹と相去こと遠らざるにあらずや

are they not beyond the Jordan, behind the way of the going in of the sun, in the land of the Canaanite, who is dwelling in the plain over-against Gilgal, near the oaks of Moreh?

31 汝らはヨルダンを濟り汝らの神ヱホバの汝らに賜ふ地に進みいりて之を獲んとす必ずこれを獲て其處に住ことを得ん

for ye are passing over the Jordan to go in to possess the land which Jehovah your God is giving to you; and ye have possessed it, and dwelt in it,

32 然ば我が今日なんぢらに授くるところの法度と律法を汝らことごとく守りて行ふべし

and observed to do all the statutes and the judgments which I am setting before you to day.
