Genesis 33
1 And as Iaakob lift vp his eyes, and looked, behold, Esau came, and with him foure hundreth men: and he deuided the children to Leah, and to Rahel, and to the two maides.
爰にヤコブ目をあげて視にエサウ四百人をひきゐて來しかば即ち子等を分ちてレアとラケルと二人の仕女とに付し
2 And he put the maides, and their children formost, and Leah, and her children after, and Rahel, and Ioseph hindermost.
仕女とその子等を前におきレアとその子等を次におきラケルとヨセフを後におきて
3 So he went before them and bowed him selfe to the ground seuen times, vntill he came neere to his brother.
自彼等の前に進み七度身を地にかがめて遂に兄に近づきけるに
4 Then Esau ranne to meete him, and embraced him, and fell on his necke, and kissed him, and they wept.
エサウ趨てこれを迎へ抱きてその頸をかかへて之に接吻すしかして二人ともに啼泣り
5 And he lift vp his eyes, and sawe the women, and the children, and saide, Who are these with thee? And he answered, They are ye childre whome God of his grace hath giuen thy seruant.
エサウ目をあげて婦人と子等を見ていひけるは是等の汝とともなる者は誰なるやヤコブいひけるは神が僕に授たまひし子なりと
6 Then came the maides neere, they, and their children, and bowed themselues.
時に仕女等その子とともに近よりて拜し
7 Leah also with her children came neere and made obeysance: and after Ioseph and Rahel drew neere, and did reuerence.
レアも亦その子とともに近よりて拜す其後にヨセフとラケルちかよりて拜す
8 Then he said, What meanest thou by all this droue, which I met? Who answered, I haue sent it, that I may finde fauour in the sight of my lorde:
エサウ又いひけるは我あへる此諸の群は何のためなるやヤコブいふ主の目の前に恩を獲んがためなり
9 And Esau said, I haue ynough, my brother: keepe that thou hast to thy selfe.
エサウいひけるは弟よわが有ところの者は足り汝の所有は汝自ら之を有てよ
10 But Iaakob answered, Nay, I pray thee: if I haue found grace nowe in thy sight, then receiue my present at mine hande: for I haue seene thy face, as though I had seene the face of God, because thou hast accepted me.
ヤコブいひけるは否我もし汝の目の前に恩をえたらんには請ふわが手よりこの禮物を受よ我汝の面をみるに神の面をみるがごとくなり汝また我をよろこぶ
11 I pray thee take my blessing, that is brought thee: for God hath had mercie on me, and therefore I haue all things: so he compelled him, and he tooke it.
神我をめぐみたまひて我が有ところの者足りされば請ふわが汝にたてまつる禮物を受よと彼に強ければ終に受たり
12 And he saide, Let vs take our iourney and go, and I will goe before thee.
エサウいひけるは我等いでたちてゆかん我汝にさきだつべし
13 Then he answered him, My lord knoweth, that the children are tender, and the ewes and kine with yong vnder mine hande: and if they should ouerdriue them one day, all the flocke would die.
ヤコブ彼にいひけるは主のしりたまふごとく子等は幼弱し又子を持る羊と牛と我にしたがふ若一日これを驅すごさば群みな死ん
14 Let now my lord go before his seruant, and I will driue softly, according to ye pase of ye cattel, which is before me, and as the children be able to endure, vntill I come to my lord vnto Seir.
請ふわが主僕にさきだちて進みたまへ我はわが前にゆくところの家畜と子女に足にまかせて徐に導きすすみセイルにてわが主に詣らん
15 Then Esau said, I will leaue then some of my folke with thee. And he answered, what needeth this? let me finde grace in the sight of my lorde.
エサウいひけるは然ば我わがひきゐる人數人を汝の所にのこさんヤコブいひけるは何ぞ此を須んや我をして主の目の前に恩を得せしめよ
16 So Esau returned, and went his way that same day vnto Seir.
是に於てエサウは此日その途にしたがひてセイルに還りぬ
17 And Iaakob went forwarde towarde Succoth, and built him an house, and made boothes for his cattell: therefore he called the name of the place Succoth.
斯てヤコブ、スコテに進みて己のために家を建て又家畜のために廬を作れり是によりて其處の名をスコテ(廬)といふ
18 Afterward, Iaakob came safe to Sheche a citie, which is in the lande of Canaan, when he came from Padan Aram, and pitched before the citie.
ヤコブ、パダンアラムより來りて恙なくカナンの地にあるシケムの邑に至り邑の前にその天幕を張り
19 And there he bought a parcell of ground, where hee pitched his tent, at the hande of the sonnes of Hamor Shechems father, for an hundreth pieces of money.
遂にその天幕をはりしところの野をシケムの父ハモルの子等の手により金百枚にて購とり
20 And he set vp there an altar, and called it, The mightie God of Israel.
彼處に壇をきづきて之をエル、エロヘ、イスラエル(イスラエルの神なる神)となづけたり
