歴代誌Ⅰ 20

1 年かへりて王等の戰爭に出る時におよびてヨアブ軍勢を率ゐて出でアンモン人の地を打荒し往てラバを攻圍りされどダビデはヱルサレムに止まりたりヨアブつひにラバを撃壞りてこれを滅ぼせり

At the time of the return of the year, at the time when kings go out, Joab led out the army and wasted the country of the children of Ammon, and came and besieged Rabbah. But David stayed at Jerusalem. Joab struck Rabbah, and overthrew it.

2 ダビデ彼らの王の冠冕をその首より取はなしたりしがその金の重を量り見るに一タラントありまたその中に寶石を嵌たるありき之をダビデの首に冠らせたり彼また甚だ衆多の掠取物をその邑より取り

David took the crown of their king from off his head, and found it to weigh a talent of gold, and there were precious stones in it. It was set on David’s head, and he brought very much plunder out of the city.

3 而して彼またその中の民を曳いだし鋸と鐵の打車と斧とをもてこれを斬りダビデ、アンモンの子孫の一切の邑に斯く爲り而してダビデとその民はみなヱルサレムに歸りぬ

He brought out the people who were in it, and had them cut with saws, with iron picks, and with axes. David did so to all the cities of the children of Ammon. Then David and all the people returned to Jerusalem.

4 この後ゲゼルにおいてペリシテ人と戰爭おこりたりしがその時にホシヤ人シベカイ巨人の子孫の一人なるシバイを殺せり彼等つひに攻伏られき

After this, war arose at Gezer with the Philistines. Then Sibbecai the Hushathite killed Sippai, of the sons of the giant; and they were subdued.

5 復ペリシテ人と戰爭ありしがヤイルの子エルハナン、ガテのゴリアテの兄弟ラミを殺せりラミの槍の柄は機の滕の如くなりき

Again there was war with the Philistines; and Elhanan the son of Jair killed Lahmi the brother of Goliath the Gittite, the staff of whose spear was like a weaver’s beam.

6 またガテに戰爭ありしが其處に一人の身長き人ありその手の指と足の趾は六宛にして合せて二十四あり彼も巨人の生る者なりき

There was again war at Gath, where there was a man of great stature, who had twenty-four fingers and toes, six on each hand and six on each foot; and he also was born to the giant.

7 彼イスラエルを挑みしかばダビデの兄弟シメアの子ヨナタンこれを殺せり

When he defied Israel, Jonathan the son of Shimea, David’s brother, killed him.

8 是等はガテにて巨人の生る者なりしがダビデの手とその臣僕の手に斃れたり

These were born to the giant in Gath; and they fell by the hand of David and by the hand of his servants.
