“So then, if you will listen to the voice of the Lord your God, so as to keep and do all of his commandments, which I instruct to you this day, the Lord your God will cause you to be more exalted than all the nations which exist upon the earth.

And the Lord will appoint you as the head, and not as the tail. And you shall be always above, and not beneath. But only if you will listen to the commandments of the Lord your God, which I entrust to you this day, and will keep and do them,
14 汝わが今日汝に命ずるこの言語を離れ右または左にまがりて他の神々にしたがひ事ふることをすべからず
and will not turn aside from them, neither to the right, nor to the left, nor follow strange gods, nor worship them.
15 汝もし汝の神ヱホバの言に聽したがはず我が今日なんぢに命ずるその一切の誡命と法度とを守りおこなはずば此もろもろの呪詛汝に臨み汝におよぶべし
But if you are not willing to listen to the voice of the Lord your God, so as to keep and do all his commandments and ceremonies, which I instruct to you this day, all these curses shall come to you, and take hold of you.

And all these curses shall come to you, and shall pursue you, and shall take hold of you, until you pass away, because you would not listen to the voice of the Lord your God, and you would not serve his commandments and ceremonies, which he has instructed to you.
46 是等の事は恒になんぢと汝の子孫の上にありて徴證となり人を驚かす者となるべし
And there will be the signs and portents with you, and with your offspring, forever.
47 なんぢ萬の物の豊饒なる中にて心に歓び樂みて汝の神ヱホバに事へざるに因り
Because you did not serve the Lord your God, with gladness and a joyful heart, over the abundance of all things.

You will serve your enemy, whom the Lord will send to you, in hunger and thirst and nakedness, and in destitution of all things. And he will place an iron yoke upon your neck, until he has crushed you.
49 即ちヱホバ遠方より地の極所より一の民を鵰の飛がごとくに汝に攻きたらしめたまはん是は汝がその言語を知ざる民
The Lord will lead over you a nation from far away, even from the furthest parts of the earth, like an eagle flying with great force, whose language you are not able to understand:
50 その面の猛惡なる民にして老たる者の身を顧みず幼稚者を憐まず
a very insolent nation, which will show no deference to elders, nor take pity on little ones.
51 汝の家畜の產と汝の地の產を食ひて汝をほろぼし穀物をも酒をも油をも牛の產をも羊の產をも汝のために遺さずして終に全く汝を滅さん
And he will devour the fruit of your cattle, and the fruits of your land, until you have passed away, without leaving behind you wheat, or wine, or oil, or herds of oxen, or flocks of sheep: until he utterly destroys you.
52 その民は汝の全國において汝の一切の邑々を攻圍み遂にその汝が賴む堅固なる高き石垣をことごとく打圮し汝の神ヱホバの汝にたまへる國の中なる一切の邑々をことごとく攻圍むべし
And he will crush you in all your cities. And your strong and lofty walls, in which you trusted, will be destroyed throughout all your land. You will be besieged within your gates throughout all your land, which the Lord your God will give to you.
53 汝は敵に圍まれ烈しく攻なやまさるるによりて終にその汝の神ヱホバに賜はれる汝の胎の產なる男子女子の肉を食ふにいたらん
And you will eat the fruit of your womb, and the flesh of your sons and of your daughters, which the Lord your God will give to you, due to the anguish and devastation with which your enemy will oppress you.
54 汝らの中の柔生育にして軟弱なる男すらもその兄弟とその懐の妻とその遺れる子女とを疾視
The man who is pampered and very self-indulgent among you will vie with his own brother, and with the wife who lies at his bosom,
55 自己の食ふその子等の肉をこの中の誰にも與ふることを好まざらん是は汝の敵汝の一切の邑々を圍み烈しく汝を攻なやまして何物をも其人に遺さざればなり
lest he give to them from the flesh of his sons, which he will eat. For he has nothing else due to the siege and the destitution, with which your enemies will devastate you within all your gates.
56 又汝らの中の柔生育にして繊弱なる婦女すなはちその柔生育にして繊弱なるがために足の蹠を土につくることをも敢てせざる者すらもその懐の夫とその男子とその女子とを疾視
The tender and pampered woman, who would not walk upon the soil, nor step firmly with her foot due to her very great softness and tenderness, will vie with her husband, who lies at her bosom, over the flesh of son and of daughter,
57 己の足の間より出る胞衣と己の產ところの子を取て密にこれを食はん是は汝の敵なんぢの邑々を圍み烈しくこれを攻なやますによりて何物をも得ざればなり
and over the filth of the afterbirth, which goes forth from between her thighs, and over the children who are born in the same hour. For they will eat them secretly, due to the scarcity of all things during the siege and the devastation, with which your enemy will oppress you within your gates.
58 汝もしこの書に記したるこの律法の一切の言を守りて行はず汝の神ヱホバと云榮ある畏るべき名を畏れずば
If you will not keep and do all the words of this law, which have been written in this volume, and fear his glorious and terrible name, that is, the Lord your God,
59 ヱホバ汝の災禍と汝の子孫の災禍を烈しくしたまはん其災禍は大にして久しくその疾病は重くして久しかるべし
then the Lord will increase your plagues, and the plagues of your offspring, plagues great and long-lasting, infirmities very grievous and continuous.
60 ヱホバまた汝が懼れし疾病なるエジプトの諸の疾病を持きたりて汝の身に纏ひ附しめたまはん
And he will turn back upon you all the afflictions of Egypt, which you fear, and these will cling to you.
61 また此律法の書に載ざる諸の疾病と諸の災害を汝の滅ぶるまでヱホバ汝に降したまはん
In addition, the Lord will lead over you all the diseases and plagues that are not written in the volume of this law, until he crushes you.
62 汝らは空の星のごとくに衆多かりしも汝の神ヱホバの言に聽したがはざるによりて殘り寡に打なさるべし
And you will remain few in number, though you were before like the stars of heaven in multitude, because you would not listen to the voice of the Lord your God.
63 ヱホバさきに汝らを善して汝等を衆くすることを喜びしごとく今はヱホバ汝らを滅ぼし絶すことを喜びたまはん汝らは其往て獲ところの地より抜さらるべし
And just as before, when the Lord rejoiced over you, doing good for you and multiplying you, so shall he rejoice, scattering and overturning you, so as to take you away from the land, which you shall enter in order to possess.
64 ヱホバ地のこの極よりかの極までの國々の中に汝を散したまはん汝は其處にて汝も汝の先祖等も知ざりし木または石なる他の神々に事へん
The Lord will disperse you among all the peoples, from the heights of the earth to its furthest limits. And there you will serve foreign gods of wood and of stone, which you and your fathers did not know.
65 その國々の中にありて汝は安寧を得ずまた汝の足の跖を休むる所を得じ其處にてヱホバ汝をして心慄き目昏み精神亂れしめたまはん
Similarly, you will not have tranquility, even within those nations, nor will there be any rest for the steps of your feet. For the Lord will give to you in that place a fearful heart, and failing eyes, and a life consumed with grieving.
66 汝の生命は細き糸に懸るが如く汝に見ゆ汝は夜晝となく恐怖をいだき汝の生命おぼつかなしと思はん
And your life will be as if it were hanging before you. You will be afraid night and day, and you will not have confidence in your own life.
67 汝心に懼るる所によりまた目に見る所によりて朝においては言ん嗚呼夕ならば善らんとまた夕においては言ん嗚呼朝ならば善らんと
In the morning you will say, ‘Who will grant evening to me?’ and at evening, ‘Who will grant morning to me?’ because of the dread of your heart, with which you will be terrified, and because of those things that you will see with your eyes.
68 ヱホバなんぢを舟にのせ彼の昔わが汝に告て汝は再びこれを見ることあらじと言たるその路より汝をエジプトに曳ゆきたまはん彼處にて人汝らを賣て汝らの敵の奴婢となさん汝らを買ふ人もあらじ
The Lord will lead you back into Egypt with a fleet of ships, along the way, about which he said to you that you would not see it again. In that place, you will be put up for sale as men and women servants to your enemies, but there will be no one willing to buy you.”
