申命記 5

1 茲にモーセ、イスラエルをことごとく召て之に言ふイスラエルよ今日我がなんぢらの耳に語るところの法度と律法とを聽きこれを學びこれを守りて行へよ

And Moses summoned all of Israel, and he said to them: “Listen, O Israel, to the ceremonies and judgments, which I am speaking to your ears on this day. Learn them, and fulfill them in deed.

2 我らの神ヱホバ、ホレブに於て我らと契約を結びたまへり

The Lord our God formed a covenant with us at Horeb.

3 この契約はヱホバわれらの先祖等とは結ばずして我ら今日此に生存へをる者と結びたまへり

He did not make the covenant with our fathers, but with us, who are alive and in the present time.

4 ヱホバ山において火の中より汝らと面をあはせて言ひたまひしが

He spoke to us face to face on the mountain, from the midst of fire.

5 その時我はヱホバと汝らの間にたちてヱホバの言を汝らに傳へたり汝ら火に懼れて山にのぼり得ざりければなり

I was the mediator, for I was in the middle between the Lord and you, at that time, to announce his words to you. For you were afraid of the fire, and so you did not ascend to the mountain. And he said:

6 ヱホバすなはち言たまひけらく我は汝の神ヱホバ汝をエジプトの地その奴隸たる家より導き出せし者なり

‘I am the Lord your God, who led you away from the land of Egypt, from the house of servitude.

7 汝わが面の前に我の外何物をも神とすべからず

You shall not have strange gods in my sight.

8 汝自己のために何の偶像をも彫むべからず又上は天にある者下は地にある者ならびに地の下の水の中にある者の何の形状をも作るべからず

You shall not make for yourself a graven image, nor the likeness of anything, which is in heaven above, or on earth below, or which abides in the waters under the earth.

9 之を拝むべからず之に事ふべからず我ヱホバ汝の神は嫉む神なれば我を惡む者にむかひては父の罪を子に報いて三四代におよぼし

You shall not adore and you shall not worship these things. For I am the Lord your God, a jealous God, repaying the iniquity of the fathers upon the sons to the third and fourth generation to those who hate me,

10 我を愛しわが誡命を守る者には恩惠を施して千代にいたるなり

and acting with mercy in thousands of ways to those who love me and keep my precepts.

11 汝の神ヱホバの名を妄に口にあぐべからずヱホバは己の名を妄に口にあぐる者を罰せではおかざるべし

You shall not use the name of the Lord your God in vain. For he will not go unpunished who takes up his name over an unimportant matter.

12 安息日を守りて之を聖潔すること汝の神ヱホバの汝に命ぜしごとくすべし

Observe the day of the Sabbath, so that you may sanctify it, just as the Lord your God has instructed you.

13 六日のあひだ勞きて汝の一切の業を爲べし

For six days, you shall labor and do all your work.

14 七日は汝の神ヱホバの安息なれば何の業務をも爲べからず汝も汝の男子女子も汝の僕婢も汝の牛驢馬も汝の諸の家畜も汝の門の中にをる他國の人も然り斯なんぢ僕婢をして汝とおなじく息ましむべし

The seventh is the day of the Sabbath, that is, the rest of the Lord your God. You shall not do any work in it, nor shall your son, nor daughter, nor man servant, nor woman servant, nor ox, nor donkey, nor any of your cattle, nor the sojourner who is within your gates, so that your men and woman servants may rest, just as you do.

15 汝誌ゆべし汝かつてエジプトの地に奴隸たりしに汝の神ヱホバ強き手と伸べたる腕とをもて其處より汝を導き出したまへり是をもて汝の神ヱホバなんぢに安息日を守れと命じたまふなり

Remember that you also were servants in Egypt, and the Lord your God led you away from that place with a strong hand and an outstretched arm. Because of this, he has instructed you so that you would observe the Sabbath day.

16 汝の神ヱホバの汝に命じたまふごとく汝の父母を敬へ是汝の神ヱホバの汝に賜ふ地において汝の日の長からんため汝に祥のあらんためなり

Honor your father and mother, just as the Lord your God has instructed you, so that you may live a long time, and so that it may be well with you in the land, which the Lord your God will give to you.

17 汝殺す勿れ

You shall not murder.

18 汝姦淫する勿れ

And you shall not commit adultery.

19 汝盗むなかれ

And you shall not commit theft.

20 汝その隣に對して虚妄の證據をたつる勿れ

Neither shall you speak false testimony against your neighbor.

21 汝その隣人の妻を貧るなかれまた隣人の家 田野 僕 婢牛 驢馬ならびに凡て汝の隣人の所有を貧るなかれ

You shall not covet your neighbor’s wife, nor his house, nor his field, nor his man servant, nor his woman servant, nor his ox, nor his donkey, nor anything out of all that is his.’

22 是等の言をヱホバ山において火の中雲の中黑雲の中より大なる聲をもて汝らの全會衆に告たまひしが此外には言ことを爲ず之を二枚の石の版に書して我に授けたまへり

The Lord spoke these words to the entire multitude of you on the mountain, from the midst of the fire and the cloud and the darkness, with a loud voice, adding nothing more. And he wrote them on two tablets of stone, which he delivered to me.

23 時にその山は火にて燒をりしが汝ら黑暗の中よりその聲の出るを聞におよびて汝らの支派の長および長老等我に進みよりて

Then, after you heard the voice from the midst of the darkness, and you saw the mountain burning, you approached me, all you leaders of the tribes and those greater by birth. And you said:

24 言けるは視よ我らの神ヱホバその榮光とその大なる事を我らに示したまひて我らその聲の火の中より出るを聞り我ら今日ヱホバ人と言ひたまふてその人の尚生るを見る

‘Behold, the Lord our God has revealed to us his majesty and his greatness. We have heard his voice from the midst of fire, and we have proven today that, though God is speaking with man, man has lived.

25 我らなんぞ死にいたるべけんや此大なる火われらを燒ほろぼさんとするなり我らもし此上になほ我らの神ヱホバの聲を聞ば死べし

Therefore, why should we die, and why should this very great fire devour us? For if we hear the voice of the Lord our God any longer, we will die.

26 凡そ肉身の者の中誰か能く活神の火の中より言ひたまふ聲を我らのごとくに聞てなほ生る者あらんや

What is all flesh, that it would hear the voice of the living God, who speaks from the midst of fire, just as we have heard it, and be able to live?

27 請ふ汝進みゆきて我らの神ヱホバの言たまふとこるを都て聽き我らの神ヱホバの汝に告給ふところを都て我らに告よ我ら聽て行はんと

Instead, you should approach and listen to all the things that the Lord our God will say to you. And you will speak to us, and we will listen and do these things.’

28 ヱホバなんぢらが我に語れる言の聲を聞てヱホバ我に言たまひけるは我この民が汝に語れる言の聲を聞り彼らの言ところは皆善し

But when the Lord had heard this, he said to me: ‘I have heard the voice of the words of this people, which they spoke to you. All this, they have spoken well.

29 只願しきは彼等が斯のごとき心を懐いて恒に我を畏れ吾が誡命を守りてその身もその子孫も永く福祉を得にいたらん事なり

Who will grant to them to have such a mind, so that they may fear me, and may keep all my commandments at all times, so that it may be well with them and with their sons forever?

30 汝ゆきて彼らに言へ汝らおのおのその天幕にかへるべしと

Go and say to them: Return to your tents.

31 然ど汝は此にて我傍に立て我なんぢに諸の誡命と法度と律法とを告しめさん汝これを彼らに敎へ我が彼らに與へて產業となさしむる地において彼らにこれを行はしむべしと

But as for you, stand here with me, and I will speak to you all my commandments and ceremonies, as well as judgments. These, you shall teach them, so that they may do them in the land, which I will give to them as a possession.

32 然ば汝らの神ヱホバの汝等に命じたまふごとくに汝ら謹みて行ふべし右にも左にも曲るべからず

And so, keep and do the things which the Lord God has commanded you. You shall not turn aside, neither to the right, nor to the left.

33 汝らの神ヱホバの汝らに命じたまふ一切の道に歩め然せば汝らは生ることを得かつ福祉を得て汝らの產業とする地に汝らの日を長うすることを得ん

For you shall walk in the way that the Lord your God has instructed, so that you may live, and it may be well with you, and your days may be extended in the land of your possession.’”
