< 出エジプト記 8 >

1 ヱホバ、モーセに言たまひけるは汝パロに詣りて彼に言へヱホバかく言たまふ吾民を去しめて我に事ふることを得せしめよ
And YHWH says to Moses, “Go to Pharaoh, and you have said to him, Thus said YHWH: Send My people away, and they serve Me;
2 汝もし去しむることを拒まば我蛙をもて汝の四方の境を惱さん
and if you are refusing to send [them] away, behold, I am striking all your border with frogs;
3 河に蛙むらがり上りきたりて汝の家にいり汝の寝室にいり汝の牀にのぼり汝の臣下の家にいり汝の民の所にいたり汝の竃におよび汝の搓鉢にいらん
and the River has teemed [with] frogs, and they have gone up and gone into your house, and into the inner-chamber of your bed, and on your couch, and into the house of your servants, and among your people, and into your ovens, and into your kneading-troughs;
4 蛙なんぢの身にのぼり汝の民と汝の臣下の上にのぼるべし
indeed, on you, and on your people, and on all your servants the frogs go up.”
5 ヱホバ、モーセに言たまはく汝アロンに言へ汝杖をとりて手を流水の上に伸べ河々の上と池塘の上に伸て蛙をエジプトの地に上らしめよ
And YHWH says to Moses, “Say to Aaron, Stretch out your hand, with your rod, against the streams, against the rivers, and against the ponds, and cause the frogs to come up against the land of Egypt.”
6 アロン手をエジプトの水のうへに伸たれば蛙のぼりきたりてエジプトの地を蔽ふ
And Aaron stretches out his hand against the waters of Egypt, and the frog comes up, and covers the land of Egypt;
7 法術士等もその秘術をもて斯おこなひ蛙をエジプトの地に上らしめたり
and the enchanters do so with their secrets, and cause the frogs to come up against the land of Egypt.
8 パロ、モーセとアロンを召て言けるはヱホバに願ひてこの蛙を我とわが民の所より取さらしめよ我この民を去しめてヱホバに犠牲をささぐることを得せしめん
And Pharaoh calls for Moses and for Aaron and says, “Make supplication to YHWH, that he may turn aside the frogs from me, and from my people, and I send the people away, and they sacrifice to YHWH.”
9 モーセ、パロに言けるは我なんぢと汝の臣下と汝の民のために願ひて何時此蛙を汝と汝の家より絶さりて河にのみ止らしむべきや我に示せと
And Moses says to Pharaoh, “Beautify yourself over me; when do I make supplication for you, and for your servants, and for your people, to cut off the frogs from you and from your houses—only in the River they remain?”
10 彼明日といひければモーセ言ふ汝の言のごとくに爲し汝をして我らの神ヱホバのごとき者なきことを知しめん
And he says, “Tomorrow.” And he says, “According to your word [it is], so that you know that there is none like our God YHWH,
11 蛙汝と汝の家を離れ汝の臣下と汝の民を離れて河にのみ止るべしと
and the frogs have turned aside from you, and from your houses, and from your servants, and from your people; only in the River they remain.”
12 モーセとアロンすなはちパロを離れて出でモーセそのパロに至らしめたまひし蛙のためにヱホバに呼はりしに
And Moses—Aaron also—goes out from Pharaoh, and Moses cries to YHWH concerning the matter of the frogs which He has set on Pharaoh;
13 ヱホバ、モーセの言のごとくなしたまひて蛙家より村より田野より死亡たり
and YHWH does according to the word of Moses, and the frogs die out of the houses, out of the courts, and out of the fields,
14 茲にこれを攢むるに山をなし地臭くなりぬ
and they heap them up together, and the land stinks.
15 然るにパロは嘘氣時あるを見てその心を頑固にして彼等に聽ことをせざりきヱホバの言たまひし如し
And Pharaoh sees that there has been a respite, and he has hardened his heart, and has not listened to them, as YHWH has spoken.
16 ヱホバ、モーセに言たまひけるは汝アロンに言へ汝の杖を伸べ地の塵を打てエジプト全國に蚤とならしめよと
And YHWH says to Moses, “Say to Aaron, Stretch out your rod, and strike the dust of the land, and it has become gnats in all the land of Egypt.”
17 彼等斯なせり即ちアロン杖をとりて手を伸べ地の塵を撃けるに蚤となりて人と畜につけりエジプト全國において地の塵みな蚤となりぬ
And they do so, and Aaron stretches out his hand with his rod, and strikes the dust of the land, and the gnats are on man and on beast; all the dust of the land has been gnats in all the land of Egypt.
18 法術士等その秘術をもて斯おこなひて蚤を出さんとしたりしが能はざりき蚤は人と畜に著く
And the enchanters do so with their secrets, to bring out the gnats, and they have not been able, and the gnats are on man and on beast;
19 是において法術士等パロに言ふ是は神の指なりと然るにパロは心剛愎にして彼等に聽ざりきヱホバの言たまひし如し
and the enchanters say to Pharaoh, “It [is] the finger of God”; and the heart of Pharaoh is strong, and he has not listened to them, as YHWH has spoken.
20 ヱホバ、モーセに言たまはく汝朝早く起てパロの前に立て視よ彼は水に臨む汝彼に言へヱホバかく言たまふわが民を去しめて我に事ふることを得せしめよ
And YHWH says to Moses, “Rise early in the morning, and station yourself before Pharaoh, behold, he is going out to the waters, and you have said to him, Thus said YHWH: Send My people away, and they serve Me;
21 汝もしわが民を去しめずば視よ我汝と汝の臣下と汝の民と汝の家とに蚋をおくらんエジプト人の家々には蚋充べし彼らの居るところの地も然らん
for if you are not sending My people away, behold, I am sending against you, and against your servants, and against your people, and against your houses, the beetle, and the houses of the Egyptians have been full of the beetle, and also the ground on which they are.
22 その日に我わが民の居るゴセンの地を區別おきて其處に蚋あらしめじ是地の中にありて我のヱホバなることを汝が知んためなり
And I have separated in that day the land of Goshen, in which My people are staying, that the beetle is not there, so that you know that I [am] YHWH in the midst of the land,
23 我わが民と汝の民の間に區別をたてん明日この徴あるべし
and I have put a division between My people and your people; this sign is tomorrow.”
24 ヱホバかく爲たまひたれば蚋おびただしく出來りてパロの家にいりその臣下の家にいりエジプト全國にたり蚋のために地害はる
And YHWH does so, and the grievous beetle enters the house of Pharaoh, and the house of his servants, and in all the land of Egypt the land is corrupted from the presence of the beetle.
25 是においてパロ、モーセとアロンを召ていひけるは汝等往て國の中にて汝らの神に犠牲を献げよ
And Pharaoh calls to Moses and to Aaron and says, “Go, sacrifice to your God in the land”;
26 モーセ言ふ然するは宜からず我等はエジプト人の崇拝む者を犠牲としてわれらの神ヱホバに献ぐべければなり我等もしエジプト人の崇拝む者をその目の前にて犠牲に献げなば彼等石にて我等を撃ざらんや
and Moses says, “[It is] not right to do so—for us to sacrifice the abomination of the Egyptians to our God YHWH; behold, we sacrifice the abomination of the Egyptians before their eyes—and they do not stone us!
27 我等は三日路ほど曠野にいりて我らの神ヱホバに犠牲を献げその命じたまひしごとくせんとす
We go a journey of three days into the wilderness and have sacrificed to our God YHWH as He says to us.”
28 パロ言けるは我汝らを去しめて汝らの神ヱホバに曠野にて犠牲を献ぐることを得せしめん但餘に遠くは行べからず我ために祈れよ
And Pharaoh says, “I send you away, and you have sacrificed to your God YHWH in the wilderness, only do not go very far off; make supplication for me”;
29 モーセ言けるは視よ我汝をはなれて出づ我ヱホバに祈ん明日蚋パロとその臣下とその民を離れん第パロ再び偽をおこなひ民を去しめてヱホバに犠牲をささぐるを得せしめざるが如きことを爲ざれ
and Moses says, “Behold, I am going out from you, and have made supplication to YHWH, and tomorrow the beetle has turned aside from Pharaoh, from his servants, and from his people; only, do not let Pharaoh add to deceive in not sending the people away to sacrifice to YHWH.”
30 かくてモーセ、パロをはなれて出でヱホバに祈りたれば
And Moses goes out from Pharaoh, and makes supplication to YHWH,
31 ヱホバ、モーセの言のごとく爲したまへり即ちその蚋をパロとその臣下とその民よりはなれしめたまふ一ものこらざりき
and YHWH does according to the word of Moses, and turns aside the beetle from Pharaoh, from his servants, and from his people—there has not been one left;
32 然るにパロ此時にもまたその心を頑固にして民を去しめざりき
and Pharaoh also hardens his heart at this time, and has not sent the people away.
