ヨシュア記 1
1 ヱホバの僕モーセの死し後ヱホバ、モーセの從者ヌンの子ヨシユアに語りて言たまはく
Now after the death of Moses the servant of the LORD it came to pass, that the LORD spoke unto Joshua the son of Nun, Moses' minister, saying,
2 わが僕モーセは已に死り然ば汝いま此すべての民とともに起てこのヨルダンを濟り我がイスラエルの子孫に與ふる地にゆけ
Moses my servant is dead; now therefore arise, go over this Jordan, you, and all this people, unto the land which I do give to them, even to the children of Israel.
3 凡そ汝らが足の蹠にて踏む所は我これを盡く汝らに與ふ我が前にモーセに語し如し
Every place that the sole of your foot shall tread upon, that have I given unto you, as I said unto Moses.
4 汝らの疆界は荒野および此レバノンより大河ユフラテ河に至りてヘテ人の全地を包ね日の沒る方の大海に及ぶべし
From the wilderness and this Lebanon even unto the great river, the river Euphrates, all the land of the Hittites, and unto the great sea toward the going down of the sun, shall be your coast.
5 汝が生ながらふる日の間なんぢに當る事を得る人なかるべし我モーセと偕に在しごとく汝と偕にあらん我なんぢを離れず汝を棄じ
There shall not any man be able to stand before you all the days of your life: as I was with Moses, so I will be with you: I will not fail you, nor forsake you.
6 心を強くしかつ勇め汝はこの民をして我が之に與ふることをその先祖等に誓ひたりし地を獲しむべき者なり
Be strong and of a good courage: for unto this people shall you divide for an inheritance the land, which I swore unto their fathers to give them.
7 惟心を強くし勇み勵んで我僕モーセが汝に命ぜし律法をことごとく守りて行へ之を離れて右にも左にも曲るなかれ然ば汝いづくに往ても利を得べし
Only be you strong and very courageous, that you may observe to do according to all the law, which Moses my servant commanded you: turn not from it to the right hand or to the left, that you may prosper anywhere you go.
8 この律法の書を汝の口より離すべからず夜も晝もこれを念ひて其中に録したる所をことごとく守りて行へ然ば汝の途福利を得汝かならず勝利を得べし
This book of the law shall not depart out of your mouth; but you shall meditate therein day and night, that you may observe to do according to all that is written therein: for then you shall make your way prosperous, and then you shall have good success.
9 我なんぢに命ぜしにあらずや心を強くしかつ勇め汝の凡て往く處にて汝の神ヱホバ偕に在せば懼るる勿れ戰慄なかれ
Have not I commanded you? Be strong and of a good courage; be not afraid, neither be you dismayed: for the LORD your God is with you anywhere you go.
10 茲にヨシユア民の有司等に命じて言ふ
Then Joshua commanded the officers of the people, saying,
11 陣營の中を行めぐり民に命じて言へ汝等糧食を備へよ三日の内に汝らは此ヨルダンを濟り汝らの神ヱホバが汝らに與へて獲させんとしたまふ地を獲んために進みゆくべければなりと
Pass through the host, and command the people, saying, Prepare you victuals; for within three days all of you shall pass over this Jordan, to go in to possess the land, which the LORD your God gives you to possess it.
12 ヨシユアまたルベン人ガド人およびマナセの支派の半に告て言ふ
And to the Reubenites, and to the Gadites, and to half the tribe of Manasseh, spoke Joshua, saying,
13 ヱホバの僕モーセ前に汝らに命じて言り汝らの神ヱホバ今なんぢらに安息を賜へり亦この地を汝らに與へたまふべしと汝らこの言詞を記念よ
Remember the word which Moses the servant of the LORD commanded you, saying, The LORD your God has given you rest, and has given you this land.
14 汝らの妻子および家畜はモーセが汝らに與へしヨルダンの此旁の地に止まるべし然ど汝ら勇者は皆身をよろひて兄弟等の先にたち進濟りて之を助けよ
Your wives, your little ones, and your cattle, shall remain in the land which Moses gave you on this side Jordan; but all of you shall pass before your brethren armed, all the mighty men of valour, and help them;
15 而してヱホバが汝らに賜ひし如くなんぢらの兄弟等にも安息を賜ふにおよばば又かれらもなんぢらの神ヱホバの與へたまふ地を獲るにおよばば汝らヱホバの僕モーセより與へられしヨルダンの此旁日の出る方なる己が所有の地に還りてこれを保つべしと
Until the LORD have given your brethren rest, as he has given you, and they also have possessed the land which the LORD your God gives them: then all of you shall return unto the land of your possession, and enjoy it, which Moses the LORD's servant gave you on this side Jordan toward the sunrising.
16 彼らヨシユアに應て言ふ汝が我等に命ぜし所は我等盡く爲べし凡て汝が我らを遣す處には我ら往べし
And they answered Joshua, saying, All that you command us we will do, and anywhere you send us, we will go.
17 我らは一切の事モーセに聽したがひし如く亦なんぢに聽したがはん唯ねがはくは汝の神ヱホバ、モーセと偕にいまししごとく汝と偕に在さんことを
According as we hearkened unto Moses in all things, so will we hearken unto you: only the LORD your God be with you, as he was with Moses.
18 誰にもあれ汝が命令に背き凡て汝が命ずるところの言に聽したがはざる者あらば之を殺すべし唯なんぢ心を強くしかつ勇め
Whosoever he be that does rebel against your commandment, and will not hearken unto your words in all that you command him, he shall be put to death: only be strong and of a good courage.
