< 申命記 3 >

1 斯てわれら身をめぐらしてバシヤンの路に上り行けるにバシヤンの王オグその民をことごとく率ゐ出てエデレイに戰はんとせり
“And so, having turned back, we ascended by the way of Bashan. And Og, the king of Bashan, went forth with his people to meet us in warfare at Edrei.
2 時にヱホバわれに言たまひけらく彼を懼るるなかれ我かれとその一切の民とその地とを汝の手に付さん汝かのヘシボンに住たるアモリ人の王シホンになせし如く彼に爲べしと
And the Lord said to me: ‘You should not fear him. For he has been delivered into your hand, with all his people as well as his land. And you shall do to him just as you have done to Sihon, the king of the Amorites, who lived at Heshbon.’
3 我らの神ヱホバすなはちバシヤンの王オグとその一切の民を我らの手に付したまひしかば我ら之を撃ころして一人をも遺さざりき
Therefore, the Lord our God delivered into our hands, now Og, the king of Bashan, and all his people. And we struck them down unto utter annihilation,
4 その時に我らこれが邑々をことごとく取り取ざる邑は一も有ざりきその取る邑は六十是すなはちアルゴブの地にしてバシヤンにおけるオグの國なり
laying waste to all his cities at one time. There was not a village which escaped from us: sixty cities, the entire region of Argob, the kingdom of Og, in Bashan.
5 この邑々はみな高き石垣あり門あり關ありて堅固なりき外にまた石垣あらざる邑甚だ多くありき
All the cities were fortified with very high walls, and with gates and bars, in addition to innumerable villages which had no walls.
6 我らはヘシボンの王シホンになせし如く之を滅しその一切の邑の男女および兒童をことごとく滅せり
And we wiped them out, just as we had done to Sihon, the king of Heshbon, destroying every city, and its men, as well as women and children.
7 惟その一切の家畜とその邑々よりの掠取物とはこれを獲てわれらの物となせり
But the cattle and the spoils of the cities, we plundered.
8 その時我らヨルダンの此旁の地をアルノン河よりヘルモン山までアモリ人の王二人の手より取り
And at that time, we took the land from the hand of the two kings of the Amorites, who were across the Jordan: from the torrent Arnon as far as Mount Hermon,
9 (ヘルモンはシドン人これをシリオンと呼びアモリ人これをセニルと呼ぶ)
which the Sidonians call Sirion, and the Amorites call Senir,
10 すなはち平野の一切の邑ギレアデの全地バシヤンの全地サルカおよびエデレイなどバシヤンに於るオグの國をことごとく取り
all the cities that are situated in the plain, and the entire land of Gilead and Bashan, all the way to Salecah and Edrei, cities of the kingdom of Og in Bashan.
11 彼レバイムの遺れる者はバシヤンの王オグ只一人なりき彼の寝臺は鐵の寝臺なりき是は今なほアンモンの子孫のラバにあるに非ずや人の肘によれば是はその長九キユビトその寛四キユビトあり
For only Og, the king of Bashan, was left behind out of the race of the giants. His bed of iron is on display, (it is in Rabbah, among the sons of Ammon) being nine cubits in length, and four in width, according to the measure of the cubit of a man’s hand.
12 その時に我らこの地を獲たりしがアルノン河の邊なるアロエルよりの地とギレアデの山地の半とその中の邑々とは我これをルベン人とガド人に與へたり
And we possessed the land, at that time, from Aroer, which is above the bank of the torrent Arnon, as far as the middle of Mount Gilead. And I gave its cities to Ruben and Gad.
13 またオグの國なりしギレアデの殘餘の地とバシヤンの全地とは我これをマナセの半支派に與へたりアルゴブの全地すなはちバシヤンの全體はレバイムの國と稱へらる
Then I delivered the remaining part of Gilead, and all of Bashan, the kingdom of Og, which is the entire region of Argob, to one half of the tribe of Manasseh. And all of Bashan is called the land of the giants.
14 マナセの子ヤイルはアルゴブの全地を取てゲシユルの境界とマアカの境界にまで至り自分の名にしたがひてバシヤンをハヲテヤイルと名けたりその名今日にいたる
Jair, the son of Manasseh, possessed all the region of Argob, as far as the borders of Geshur and Maacath. And he called Bashan by his own name, Havvoth Jair, that is, the villages of Jair, even to the present day.
15 またマキルには我ギレアデを與へ
Likewise, to Machir, I gave Gilead.
16 ルベン人とガド人にはギレアデよりアルノン河までを與へその河の眞中をもて界となしまたアンモンの子孫の地の界なるヤボク河にまで至り
And to the tribes of Ruben and Gad, I gave from the land of Gilead as far as the torrent Arnon, one half of the torrent and its confines, even to the torrent Jabbok, which is along the border of the sons of Ammon,
17 またアラバおよびヨルダンとその邊の地をキンネレテよりアラバの海すなはち鹽海まで之にあたへて東の方ピスガの麓にいたる
and the plain of the wilderness, as well as the Jordan, and the borders of Chinnereth, all the way to the sea of the desert, which is very salty, to the base of Mount Pisgah toward the east.
18 その時我なんぢらに命じて言り汝らの神ヱホバこの地を汝らに與へて產業となさしめたまへば汝ら軍人に身をよろひて汝らの兄弟なるイスラエルの子孫に先だちて渉りゆくべし
And I instructed you at that time, saying: ‘The Lord your God gives to you this land as an inheritance. Having armed yourselves, go before your brothers, the sons of Israel, all you strong men.
19 但し汝らの妻と子女と家畜は我が汝らに與へし邑に止るべし我なんぢらが衆多の家畜を有を知なり
Leave behind your wives and little ones, as well as the cattle. For I know that you have many cattle, and they should remain in the cities which I have delivered to you,
20 ヱホバなんぢらに賜ひしごとく汝らの兄弟にも安息を賜ひて彼らもまたヨルダンの彼旁にて汝らの神ヱホバにたまはるところの地を獲て產業となすに至らば汝らおのおの我なんぢらに與へし產業に歸るべし
until the Lord provides rest to your brothers, just as he has provided for you. And they, too, shall possess the land, which he will give to them beyond the Jordan. Then each one shall return to his possession, which I have allotted to you.’
21 かの時に我ヨシユアに命じて言り汝はこの二人の王に汝らの神ヱホバのおこなひたまふ所の事を目に視たりヱホバまた汝が往ところの諸の國にも斯のごとく行ひたまはん
Likewise, I instructed Joshua at that time, saying: ‘Your eyes have seen what the Lord your God has done to these two kings. So also will he do to all the kingdoms through which you shall pass.
22 汝これを懼るる勿れ汝らの神ヱホバ汝らのために戰ひたまはんと
You should not fear them. For the Lord your God will fight on your behalf.’
23 當時われヱホバに求めて言り
And I beseeched the Lord at that time, saying:
24 主ヱホバよ汝は汝の大なる事と汝の強き手を僕に見すことを始めたまへり天にても地にても何の神か能なんぢの如き事業を爲し汝のごとき能力を有んや
‘Lord God, you have begun to reveal your greatness and your very strong hand to your servant. For there is no other god, either in heaven or on earth, who is able to accomplish your works, or to be compared to your strength.
25 願くは我をして渉りゆかしめヨルダンの彼旁なる美地美山およびレバノンを見ことを得させたまへと
Therefore, I will cross over, and I will view this excellent land beyond the Jordan, and this singular mountain, and Lebanon.’
26 然るにヱホバなんぢらの故をもて我を怒り我に聽ことを爲たまはずヱホバすなはち我に言たまひけるは旣に足りこの事を重て我に言なかれ
And the Lord became angry with me because of you, and he would not heed me. But he said to me: ‘It is enough for you. You shall no longer speak to me at all about this matter.
27 汝ビスガの嶺にのぼり目を擧て西北南東を望み汝の目をもて其地を觀よ汝はヨルダンを濟ることを得ざるべければなり
Ascend to the summit of Pisgah, and look around with your eyes to the west, and to the north, and to the south, and to the east, and behold it. For you shall not cross this Jordan.
28 汝ヨシユアに命じ之に力をつけ之を堅うせよ其はこの民を率ゐて渉りゆき之に汝が見るところの地を獲さする者は彼なればなりと
Instruct Joshua, and encourage and strengthen him. For he shall go before this people, and he shall distribute to them the land that you will see.’
29 かくて我らはベテベオルに對する谷に居る
And we remained in the valley, opposite the shrine of Peor.”
