サムエル記Ⅱ 21
1 ダビデの世に年復年と三年饑饉ありければダビデ、ヱホバに問にヱホバ言たまひけるは是はサウルと血を流せる其家のためなり其は彼嘗てギベオン人を殺したればなりと
There was a famine in the days of David three years, year after year; and David sought the face of YHWH. YHWH said, "It is for Saul, and for his bloody house, because he put to death the Gibeonites."
2 是において王ギベオン人を召てかれらにいへりギベオン人はイスラエルの子孫にあらずアモリ人の殘餘なりしがイスラエルの子孫昔彼等に誓をなしたり然るにサウル、イスラエルとユダの子孫に熱心なるよりして彼等を殺さんと求めたり
The king called the Gibeonites, and spoke to them. (Now the Gibeonites were not of the children of Israel, but of the remnant of the Amorites; and the children of Israel had sworn to them: and Saul sought to kill them in his zeal for the children of Israel and Judah.)
3 即ちダビデ、ギベオン人にいひけるは我汝等のために何を爲すべきか我何の賠償を爲さば汝等ヱホバの產業を祝するや
And David said to the Gibeonites, "What shall I do for you? And with what shall I make atonement, that you may bless the inheritance of YHWH?"
4 ギベオン人彼にいひけるは我儕はサウルと其家の金銀を取じ又汝は我らのためにイスラエルの中の人一人をも殺すなかれダビデいひけるは汝等が言ふ所は我汝らのために爲ん
The Gibeonites said to him, "It is no matter of silver or gold between us and Saul, or his house; neither is it for us to put any man to death in Israel." He said, "Whatever you say, that will I do for you."
5 彼等王にいひけるは我儕を滅したる人我儕を殲してイスラエルの境の中に居留ざらしめんとて我儕にむかひて謀を設けし人
They said to the king, "The man who consumed us, and who devised against us, that we should be destroyed from remaining in any of the borders of Israel,
6 請ふ其人の子孫七人を我儕に與へよ我儕ヱホバの選みたるサウルのギベアにて彼等をヱホバのまへに懸ん王いふ我與ふべしと
let seven men of his sons be delivered to us, and we will hang them up to YHWH in Gibeah of Saul, the chosen of YHWH." The king said, "I will give them."
7 されど王サウルの子ヨナタンの子なるメピボセテを惜めり是は彼等のあひだ即ちダビデとサウルの子ヨナタンとの間にヱホバを指して爲る誓あるに因り
But the king spared Mippibaal, the son of Jonathan the son of Saul, because of YHWH's oath that was between them, between David and Jonathan the son of Saul.
8 されど王アヤの女リヅパがサウルに生し二人の子アルモニとメピボセテおよびサウルの女メラブがメホラ人バルジライの子アデリエルに生し五人の子を取りて
But the king took the two sons of Rizpah the daughter of Aiah, whom she bore to Saul, Armoni and Mippibaal; and the five sons of Merob the daughter of Saul, whom she bore to Adriel the son of Barzillai the Meholathite.
9 かれらをギベオン人の手に與へければギベオン人かれらを山の上にてヱホバの前に懸たり彼等七人倶に斃れて刈穫の初日即ち大麥刈の初時に死り
He delivered them into the hands of the Gibeonites, and they hanged them in the mountain before YHWH, and all seven of them fell together. They were put to death in the days of harvest, in the first days, at the beginning of barley harvest.
10 アヤの女リヅパ麻布を取りて刈穫の初時より其屍上に天より雨ふるまでこれをおのれのために磐の上に布きおきて晝は空の鳥を屍の上に止らしめず夜は野の獣をちかよらしめざりき
Rizpah the daughter of Aiah took sackcloth, and spread it for her on the rock, from the beginning of harvest until water was poured on them from the sky. She allowed neither the birds of the sky to rest on them by day, nor the animals of the field by night.
11 爰にアヤの女サウルの妾リヅパの爲しことダビデに聞えければ
It was told David what Rizpah the daughter of Aiah, the secondary wife of Saul, had done.
12 ダビデ往てサウルの骨と其子ヨナタンの骨をヤベシギレアデの人々の所より取り是はペリシテ人がサウルをギルボアに殺してベテシヤンの衢に懸たるをかれらが竊みさりたるものなり
David went and took the bones of Saul and the bones of Jonathan his son from the men of Jabesh Gilead, who had stolen them from the street of Beth Shan, where the Philistines had hanged them, in the day that the Philistines killed Saul in Gilboa;
13 ダビデ其處よりサウルの骨と其子ヨナタンの骨を携へ上れりまた人々其懸られたる者等の骨を斂たり
and he brought up from there the bones of Saul and the bones of Jonathan his son: and they gathered the bones of those who were hanged.
14 かくてサウルと其子ヨナタンの骨をベニヤミンの地のゼラにて其父キシの墓に葬り都て王の命じたる所を爲り比より後神其地のため祈祷を聽たまへり
They buried the bones of Saul and Jonathan his son in the country of Benjamin in Zela, in the tomb of Kish his father: and they performed all that the king commanded. After that God was entreated for the land.
15 ペリシテ人復イスラエルと戰爭を爲すダビデ其臣僕とともに下りてペリシテ人と戰ひけるがダビデ困憊居りければ
The Philistines had war again with Israel; and David went down, and his servants with him, and fought against the Philistines, and David became exhausted.
16 イシビベノブ、ダビデを殺さんと思へり(イシビベノブは巨人の子等の一人にて其槍の銅の重は三百シケルあり彼新しき劒を帶たり)
And Dodo son of Joash, one of the descendants of the Raphah, captured him. His spear weighed three hundred bronze shekels, and he was girded with a new sword, and he thought he could kill David.
17 しかれどもゼルヤの子アビシヤイ、ダビデを助けて其ペリシテ人を撃ち殺せり是においてダビデの從者かれに誓ひていひけるは汝は再我儕と共に戰爭に出べからず恐らくは爾イスラエルの燈光を消さんと
But Abishai the son of Zeruiah helped him, and struck the Philistine, and killed him. Then the men of David swore, saying, "You must not go out to battle with us again, so that you do not extinguish the lamp of Israel."
18 此後再びゴブにおいてペリシテ人と戰あり時にホシヤ人シベカイ巨人の子等の一人なるサフを殺せり
It came to pass after this, that there was again war with the Philistines at Gezer. Then Sibbekai the Hushathite killed Saph, a descendant of the Raphah.
19 爰に復ゴブにてペリシテ人と戰あり其處にてベテレヘム人ヤレオレギムの子エルハナン、ガテのゴリアテの兄弟ラミを殺せり其槍の柄は機の梁の如くなりき
There was again war with the Philistines at Gob; and Elhanan the son of Jair the Bethlehemite killed the brother of Goliath the Gittite, the staff of whose spear was like a weaver's beam.
20 又ガテに戰ありしが其處に一人の身長き人あり手には各六の指あり足には各六の指ありて其數合せて二十四なり彼もまた巨人の生る者なり
There was again war at Gath, where there was a man of great stature, who had on every hand six fingers, and on every foot six toes, four and twenty in number; and he also was born to the giant.
21 彼イスラエルを挑みしかばダビデに兄弟シメアの子ヨナタン彼を殺せり
When he defied Israel, Jonathan the son of Shimeah, David's brother, killed him.
22 是らの四人はガテにて巨人の生るものなりしがダビデの手と其臣僕の手に斃れたり
These four were born to the giant in Gath; and they fell by the hand of David, and by the hand of his servants.
