< ヨシュア記 11 >

1 ハゾルの王ヤビン之を聞およびマドンの王ヨバブ、シムロンの王アクサフの王
And when Jabin, the king of Hazor, had heard these things, he sent to Jobab, the king of Madon, and to the king of Shimron, and to the king of Achshaph,
2 および北の地山地キンネロテの南のアラバ平地西の方なるドルの高處などに居る王等
also to the kings of the north, who were living in the mountains, and in the plains opposite the southern region of Chinneroth, and also in the plains and the regions of Dor, beside the sea,
3 すなはち東西のカナン人アモリ人ヘテ人ペリジ人山地のエブス人ミヅバの地なるヘルモンの麓のヒビ人などに人を遣はせり
also to the Canaanites, from east to west, and to the Amorite, and the Hittite, and the Perizzite, and the Jebusite in the mountains, also to the Hivite who was living at the base of Hermon, in the land of Mizpah.
4 爰に彼らその諸軍勢を率ゐて出きたれり其民の衆多ことは濱の砂の多きがごとくにして馬と車もまた甚だ多かりき
And they all went forth with their troops, a people exceedingly numerous, like the sand that is on the shore of the sea. And their horses and chariots were an immense multitude.
5 これらの王たち皆あひ會して進みきたり共にメロムの水の邊に陣をとりてイスラエルと戰はんとす
And all these kings assembled at the waters of Merom, so that they might fight against Israel.
6 時にヱホバ、ヨシユアに言たまひけるは彼らの故によりて懼るる勿れ明日の今頃われ彼らをイスラエルの前に付して盡く殺さしめん汝かれらの馬の足の筋を截り火をもて彼らの車を焚べしと
And the Lord said to Joshua: “You should not fear them. For tomorrow, at this same hour, I will deliver all these to be wounded in the sight of Israel. You will hamstring their horses, and you will burn their chariots with fire.”
7 ヨシユアすなはち一切の軍人を率ゐて俄然にメロムの水の邊に押寄て之を襲ひけるに
And Joshua, and the entire army with him, came against them suddenly, at the waters of Merom, and they rushed upon them.
8 ヱホバこれをイスラエルの手に付したまひしかば則ち之を撃やぶりて大シドンおよびミスレポテマイムまで之を追ゆき東の方にては又ミヅバの谷までこれを追ゆき遂に一人をも遺さず撃とれり
And the Lord delivered them into the hands of Israel. And they struck them, and they pursued them as far as the great Sidon, and the waters of Misrephoth, and the field of Mizpeh, which is toward the eastern region. He struck them all, so that nothing was left of them to remain.
9 ヨシユアすなはちヱホバの己に命じたまひしことにしたがひて彼らに馬の足の筋を截り火をもてその車を焚り
And he did just as the Lord had instructed him. He hamstrung their horses, and he burned their chariots with fire.
10 その時ヨシユア歸りきたりてハゾルを取り刃をもてその王を撃り在昔ハゾルは是らの諸國の盟主たりき
And turning back, he immediately seized Hazor. And he struck down its king with the sword. For Hazor, from antiquity, held the first position among all these kingdoms.
11 即ち刃をもてその中なる一切の人を撃てことごとく之を滅ぼし氣息する者は一人だに遺さざりき又火をもてハゾルを焚り
And he struck down all the souls that were staying there. He did not leave in it any remains, but he destroyed everything unto utter annihilation, and he destroyed the city itself with fire.
12 ヨシユアこれらの王の一切の邑々およびその諸王を取り刃をもてこれを撃て盡く滅ぼせり、ヱホバの僕モーセの命じたるがごとし
And he seized, struck, and destroyed all the surrounding cities and their kings, just as Moses, the servant of God, had instructed him.
13 但しその岡の上にたちたる邑々はイスラエルこれを焚ず唯ハゾルのみをヨシユア焚り
And except for the cities that were on hills and in elevated places, the rest Israel burned. One only, highly-fortified Hazor, was consumed with fire.
14 是らの邑の諸の貨財及び家畜はイスラエルの人々奪ひて自ら之を取り人はみな刃をもて撃て滅ぼし盡し氣息する者は一人だに遺さざりき
And the sons of Israel divided among themselves all the plunder of these cities, and the cattle, putting to death all persons.
15 ヱホバその僕モーセに命じたまひし所をモーセまたヨシユアに命じ置たりしがヨシユアその如くに行へり凡てヱホバのモーセに命じたまひし所はヨシユア一だに爲で置し事なし
Just as the Lord had instructed his servant Moses, so did Moses instruct Joshua, and he fulfilled everything. He did not omit even one word out of all the commandments, which the Lord had commanded Moses.
16 ヨシユア斯その全地すなはち山地南の全地ゴセンの全地平地アラバ、イスラエルの山地およびその平地を取り
And so Joshua seized the entire land of the mountains, and of the south, and the land of Goshen, and the plains, and the western region, and the mountain of Israel, and its plains.
17 セイルに上りゆくでハラク山よりヘルモン山の麓なるレバノン谷のバアルガデまでを獲その王等をことごとく執へて之を撃て死しめたり
As for the part of the mountain that ascends to Seir, as far as Baalgad, along the plain of Lebanon under mount Hermon, all their kings he seized, struck down, and killed.
18 ヨシユア此すべての王等と戰爭をなすこと日ひさし
For a long time, Joshua fought against these kings.
19 ギベオンの民ヒビ人を除くの外はイスラエルの子孫と好をなしし邑なかりき皆戰爭をなしてこれを攻とりしなり
There was not a city that delivered itself to the sons of Israel, except the Hivites who were living at Gibeon. For he seized it all in warfare.
20 そもそも彼らが心を剛愎にしてイスラエルに攻よせしはヱホバの然らしめたまひし者なり彼らは詛はれし者となり憐憫を乞ふこととせず滅ぼされんがためなりき是全くヱホバのモーセに命じたまひしが如し
For it was the sentence of the Lord that their hearts would be hardened, and that they would fight against Israel and fall, and that they did not deserve any clemency, and that they should perish, just as the Lord had commanded Moses.
21 その時ヨシユアまた往て山地ヘブロン、デビル、アナブ、ユダの一切の山地イスラエルの一切の山地などよりしてアナク人を絶ち而してヨシユア彼らの邑々をも與に滅ぼせり
In that time, Joshua went and put to death the Anakim from the mountains, from Hebron and Debir and Anab, and from all the mountains of Judah and Israel. And he destroyed their cities.
22 然からにイスラエルの子孫の地の内にはアナク人一人も遺りをらず只ガザ、ガテ、アシドドに少く遺りをる而已
He did not leave any from the stock of the Anakim in the land of the sons of Israel, except the cities of Gaza, and Gath, and Ashdod, which alone were left behind.
23 ヨシユアかく此地を盡く取り全くヱホバのモーセに告たまひし如し而してヨシユア、イスラエルの支派の區別にしたがひ之を與へて產業となさしめたり遂に此地に戰爭やみぬ
Thus, Joshua seized all the land, just as the Lord spoke to Moses, and he delivered it as a possession to the sons of Israel, according to their divisions and tribes. And the land rested from battles.
