ダビデの人口調査
24 さて、主が再びイスラエルに怒りを燃やすようなことが持ち上がりました。ダビデはどうしたことか、人口調査をして国民を煩わせる思いに駆られたのです。主はその思いをそのままにしました。 2 王は、側近で軍の司令官であるヨアブに命じました。「わが国の北から南まで、くまなく全住民を登録させなさい。どれほどの国民をかかえているか知りたいからだ。」
3 ヨアブは答えました。「どうか、あなたの長らえます間に、主が現在の人口の百倍にも増やしてくださいますように。それにしても、王様がわざわざ国勢を誇示なさるには及ばないと存じますが。」
4 しかし、ヨアブの忠告も王のたっての願いには勝てず、ヨアブをはじめとする将校たちは、国の人口調査に出かけることになりました。 5 一行はまずヨルダン川を渡り、ガドの谷の真ん中にある町の南方、ヤウゼルに近いアロエルに野営しました。 6 それからタフティム・ホデシの地とギルアデを巡り、さらにダン・ヤアンに進んで、シドンの方に回りました。 7 その後ツロの要塞に行き、ヒビ人やカナン人の町をすべて行き巡り、ユダの南に広がるネゲブをベエル・シェバまで下りました。 8 こうして、九か月と二十日かかって、全国を行き巡り、この任務を終えたのです。 9 ヨアブは登録人数を王に報告しました。その結果、徴兵人口は、イスラエルで八十万、ユダで五十万とわかりました。
10 ところが、人口調査を終えたあと、ダビデの良心は痛み始めました。彼は主に祈りました。「私はとんでもない過ちを犯してしまいました。どうか、私の愚かなふるまいをお見逃しください。」
11 翌朝、主のことばが預言者ガドにありました。ガドは、ダビデと主との間を取り次いでいた人物です。主はガドに語りました。 12 「ダビデに告げよ。わたしが示す三つのうち一つを選べと。」
13 ガドはダビデのもとへ行き、こう尋ねました。「七年間にわたる全国的なききんがよいか、三か月間、敵の前を逃げ回るのがよいか、三日間、疫病に見舞われるのがよいか、一つを選んでください。よくお考えになって、主にどうお答え申し上げるべきかをご指示ください。」
14 ダビデは答えました。「こんな決断を下さなければならないとは、実につらい。だが、人の手に陥るよりは主の手に陥るほうがましだ。主のあわれみは大きいのだから。」
15 すると主は、その朝から、イスラエルに疫病をはやらせました。災いは三日間にわたり、国中で七万人もの死者が出ました。 16 死の使いがエルサレムに災いの手を伸ばそうとした時、主は事態をあわれんで、主の使いに中止するよう命じました。ちょうど主の使いは、エブス人アラウナの打ち場のそばに立っていました。
17 この時、ダビデは天の使いに目を留め、主にこう言ってすがりました。「お願いです。罪を犯したのは、この私だけなのです。国民に罪はございません。どうか、お怒りを私と私の一家にだけお向けください。」
18 その日、ダビデのもとに来たガドは、「エブス人アラウナの打ち場に行き、そこに主の祭壇を築きなさい」と言いました。 19 ダビデは命じられたとおり出かけました。 20 アラウナは、王と家来の一行が近づいて来るのを見て駆け寄り、顔を地面にこすりつけんばかりにひれ伏しました。 21 「王様、またどうして、こちらにお越しくださったのでしょう。」
「あなたの打ち場を買い取り、主の祭壇を築きたいと思ってだ。そうすれば、この災いも終わらせていただけよう。」
22 「王様、どうぞ、何でもお気に召すままにお使いください。焼き尽くすいけにえ用の牛もおりますし、祭壇のたきぎの代わりに、どうぞ打穀機や牛のくびきを燃やしてください。 23 何にでもご用立てください。どうか主が、あなたのささげるいけにえをお受け入れくださいますように。」
24 「いやいや、ただで受け取るわけにはいかない。ぜひ、売ってもらいたい。何の犠牲も払わず、焼き尽くすいけにえをささげたくはないのだ。」
こう言って、ダビデは打ち場と牛とを買い取りました。 25 そして、主のために祭壇を築き、焼き尽くすいけにえと和解のいけにえとをささげたのです。主はダビデの祈りを聞き、疫病の流行はやみました。

David Enrolls the Fighting Men(A)
24 Again(B) the anger of the Lord burned against Israel,(C) and he incited David against them, saying, “Go and take a census of(D) Israel and Judah.”
2 So the king said to Joab(E) and the army commanders[a] with him, “Go throughout the tribes of Israel from Dan to Beersheba(F) and enroll(G) the fighting men, so that I may know how many there are.”
3 But Joab(H) replied to the king, “May the Lord your God multiply the troops a hundred times over,(I) and may the eyes of my lord the king see it. But why does my lord the king want to do such a thing?”
4 The king’s word, however, overruled Joab and the army commanders; so they left the presence of the king to enroll the fighting men of Israel.
5 After crossing the Jordan, they camped near Aroer,(J) south of the town in the gorge, and then went through Gad and on to Jazer.(K) 6 They went to Gilead and the region of Tahtim Hodshi, and on to Dan Jaan and around toward Sidon.(L) 7 Then they went toward the fortress of Tyre(M) and all the towns of the Hivites(N) and Canaanites. Finally, they went on to Beersheba(O) in the Negev(P) of Judah.
8 After they had gone through the entire land, they came back to Jerusalem at the end of nine months and twenty days.
9 Joab reported the number of the fighting men to the king: In Israel there were eight hundred thousand able-bodied men who could handle a sword, and in Judah five hundred thousand.(Q)
10 David was conscience-stricken(R) after he had counted the fighting men, and he said to the Lord, “I have sinned(S) greatly in what I have done. Now, Lord, I beg you, take away the guilt of your servant. I have done a very foolish thing.(T)”
11 Before David got up the next morning, the word of the Lord had come to Gad(U) the prophet, David’s seer:(V) 12 “Go and tell David, ‘This is what the Lord says: I am giving you three options. Choose one of them for me to carry out against you.’”
13 So Gad went to David and said to him, “Shall there come on you three[b] years of famine(W) in your land? Or three months of fleeing from your enemies while they pursue you? Or three days of plague(X) in your land? Now then, think it over and decide how I should answer the one who sent me.”
14 David said to Gad, “I am in deep distress. Let us fall into the hands of the Lord, for his mercy(Y) is great; but do not let me fall into human hands.”
15 So the Lord sent a plague on Israel from that morning until the end of the time designated, and seventy thousand of the people from Dan to Beersheba died.(Z) 16 When the angel stretched out his hand to destroy Jerusalem, the Lord relented(AA) concerning the disaster and said to the angel who was afflicting the people, “Enough! Withdraw your hand.” The angel of the Lord(AB) was then at the threshing floor of Araunah the Jebusite.
17 When David saw the angel who was striking down the people, he said to the Lord, “I have sinned; I, the shepherd,[c] have done wrong. These are but sheep.(AC) What have they done?(AD) Let your hand fall on me and my family.”(AE)
David Builds an Altar(AF)
18 On that day Gad went to David and said to him, “Go up and build an altar to the Lord on the threshing floor of Araunah(AG) the Jebusite.” 19 So David went up, as the Lord had commanded through Gad. 20 When Araunah looked and saw the king and his officials coming toward him, he went out and bowed down before the king with his face to the ground.
21 Araunah said, “Why has my lord the king come to his servant?”
“To buy your threshing floor,” David answered, “so I can build an altar to the Lord, that the plague on the people may be stopped.”(AH)
22 Araunah said to David, “Let my lord the king take whatever he wishes and offer it up. Here are oxen(AI) for the burnt offering, and here are threshing sledges and ox yokes for the wood. 23 Your Majesty, Araunah[d] gives(AJ) all this to the king.” Araunah also said to him, “May the Lord your God accept you.”
24 But the king replied to Araunah, “No, I insist on paying you for it. I will not sacrifice to the Lord my God burnt offerings that cost me nothing.”(AK)
So David bought the threshing floor and the oxen and paid fifty shekels[e](AL) of silver for them. 25 David built an altar(AM) to the Lord there and sacrificed burnt offerings and fellowship offerings. Then the Lord answered his prayer(AN) in behalf of the land, and the plague on Israel was stopped.

24 And again the anger of the Lord was kindled against Israel, and he moved David against them to say, Go, number Israel and Judah.
2 For the king said to Joab the captain of the host, which was with him, Go now through all the tribes of Israel, from Dan even to Beersheba, and number ye the people, that I may know the number of the people.
3 And Joab said unto the king, Now the Lord thy God add unto the people, how many soever they be, an hundredfold, and that the eyes of my lord the king may see it: but why doth my lord the king delight in this thing?
4 Notwithstanding the king's word prevailed against Joab, and against the captains of the host. And Joab and the captains of the host went out from the presence of the king, to number the people of Israel.
5 And they passed over Jordan, and pitched in Aroer, on the right side of the city that lieth in the midst of the river of Gad, and toward Jazer:
6 Then they came to Gilead, and to the land of Tahtimhodshi; and they came to Danjaan, and about to Zidon,
7 And came to the strong hold of Tyre, and to all the cities of the Hivites, and of the Canaanites: and they went out to the south of Judah, even to Beersheba.
8 So when they had gone through all the land, they came to Jerusalem at the end of nine months and twenty days.
9 And Joab gave up the sum of the number of the people unto the king: and there were in Israel eight hundred thousand valiant men that drew the sword; and the men of Judah were five hundred thousand men.
10 And David's heart smote him after that he had numbered the people. And David said unto the Lord, I have sinned greatly in that I have done: and now, I beseech thee, O Lord, take away the iniquity of thy servant; for I have done very foolishly.
11 For when David was up in the morning, the word of the Lord came unto the prophet Gad, David's seer, saying,
12 Go and say unto David, Thus saith the Lord, I offer thee three things; choose thee one of them, that I may do it unto thee.
13 So Gad came to David, and told him, and said unto him, Shall seven years of famine come unto thee in thy land? or wilt thou flee three months before thine enemies, while they pursue thee? or that there be three days' pestilence in thy land? now advise, and see what answer I shall return to him that sent me.
14 And David said unto Gad, I am in a great strait: let us fall now into the hand of the Lord; for his mercies are great: and let me not fall into the hand of man.
15 So the Lord sent a pestilence upon Israel from the morning even to the time appointed: and there died of the people from Dan even to Beersheba seventy thousand men.
16 And when the angel stretched out his hand upon Jerusalem to destroy it, the Lord repented him of the evil, and said to the angel that destroyed the people, It is enough: stay now thine hand. And the angel of the Lord was by the threshingplace of Araunah the Jebusite.
17 And David spake unto the Lord when he saw the angel that smote the people, and said, Lo, I have sinned, and I have done wickedly: but these sheep, what have they done? let thine hand, I pray thee, be against me, and against my father's house.
18 And Gad came that day to David, and said unto him, Go up, rear an altar unto the Lord in the threshingfloor of Araunah the Jebusite.
19 And David, according to the saying of Gad, went up as the Lord commanded.
20 And Araunah looked, and saw the king and his servants coming on toward him: and Araunah went out, and bowed himself before the king on his face upon the ground.
21 And Araunah said, Wherefore is my lord the king come to his servant? And David said, To buy the threshingfloor of thee, to build an altar unto the Lord, that the plague may be stayed from the people.
22 And Araunah said unto David, Let my lord the king take and offer up what seemeth good unto him: behold, here be oxen for burnt sacrifice, and threshing instruments and other instruments of the oxen for wood.
23 All these things did Araunah, as a king, give unto the king. And Araunah said unto the king, The Lord thy God accept thee.
24 And the king said unto Araunah, Nay; but I will surely buy it of thee at a price: neither will I offer burnt offerings unto the Lord my God of that which doth cost me nothing. So David bought the threshingfloor and the oxen for fifty shekels of silver.
25 And David built there an altar unto the Lord, and offered burnt offerings and peace offerings. So the Lord was intreated for the land, and the plague was stayed from Israel.

ダビデの人口調査
21 時にサタンが、ダビデに人口調査をさせるように仕向けて、イスラエルに災いをもたらしました。
2 王は、ヨアブをはじめ指導者たちに命じました。「国中の人口を完全に調べ上げ、その人数を報告してほしい。」
3 すると、ヨアブが反対意見を述べました。「主が民を百倍に増してくださっても、みなあなたの民ではありませんか。それなのになぜ、そんな要求をなさるのですか。なぜ、イスラエルに罪を犯させるようなことをなさるのですか。」
4 しかし、王が説き伏せたので、ヨアブは命令どおりイスラエル中を巡り歩き、エルサレムに帰って来ました。 5 ヨアブが報告した総人口は、全イスラエルで戦いに出られる者が百十万人、ユダで四十七万人でした。 6 ただし、ヨアブは王の命令に心を痛めていたので、数の中にレビとベニヤミンの二部族を入れませんでした。
7 この人口調査は神の御心を損なったので、神はイスラエルを罰しました。
8 ダビデは神に言いました。「私は罪を犯しました。どうかお赦しください。自分のしたことがどんなに間違っていたか、今わかりました。」
9 そこで主は、王の相談役である預言者ガドに語りました。 10-11 「ダビデに次のように伝えよ。『主は、三つのうち一つを選べと言われる。 12 三年間のききんか、三か月の間敵に苦しめられることか、それとも、御使いが国中を荒らし、三日間恐ろしい疫病に悩まされることかだ。よく考えて、私を遣わされたお方に何と答えるか決めるように。』」
ガドはダビデのもとに行き、そのとおり伝えました。
13 王は答えました。「一つを選ぶのはつらいことです。どうか、私を人の手にではなく、主の御手に陥らせてください。主のあわれみは深いからです。」
14 すると、神はイスラエルに疫病を下したので、七万人が死にました。 15 病気が猛威をふるっている時、主は一人の御使いを送って、エルサレムを滅ぼそうとしました。しかし、主はあわれに思って考えを変え、御使いに、「もう十分だ。手を引きなさい」と命じたのです。御使いはその時、エブス人オルナンの打穀場に立っていました。 16 王は、御使いが抜き身の剣をエルサレムの方に差し伸べ、天と地の間に立っているのを見ました。そこで、その場に居合わせたイスラエルの長老たちとともに荒布をまとい、地にひれ伏しました。
17 ダビデは神に願いました。「人口調査の命令を出して罪を犯したのは、この私です。民が何をしたというのでしょう。主よ、私と私の家族を滅ぼしても、民は滅ぼさないでください。」
18 すると、御使いはガドに、「王がエブス人オルナンの打穀場に祭壇を築くように」と指示しました。 19-20 王はさっそく、小麦の打穀をしていたオルナンに会いに行きました。オルナンが振り向くと、御使いの姿が見えたので、彼の四人の子は走って隠れました。 21 オルナンは王が来るのも見て、打穀場から出て来てひれ伏しました。
22 ダビデはオルナンに言いました。「それ相応の金を払うから、この打穀場を譲ってくれないか。ここに主のための祭壇を築きたいのだ。そうすれば、伝染病も収まるだろうから。」
23 「王よ、どうぞお気に召すままにお使いください。よろしければ、焼き尽くすいけにえ用の牛も差し上げます。打穀の器具を、たきぎ代わりに使っていただいてけっこうです。穀物のささげ物がお入り用でしたら、小麦がございます。何でもご用立ていたします。」
24 「いや、十分な金額で買い取らせてほしい。おまえのものを取って、それを主にささげるわけにはいかない。ふところを痛めずに、いけにえをささげることはしたくないのだ。」
25 そして、ダビデはオルナンに六百シェケル（約七キログラム）の金を与えました。 26 こうして手に入れた場所に主のための祭壇を築き、その上で、焼き尽くすいけにえと和解のいけにえをささげました。ダビデが大声で主を呼ぶと、主は彼に答え、天から下った火がいけにえを焼き尽くしました。 27 それから、主は御使いに命じて、剣をさやに納めさせました。 28 ダビデは願いが聞かれたのを見て、もう一度いけにえをささげました。 29 当時、モーセが荒野で造った幕屋と祭壇は、ギブオンの高台にありました。 30 しかしダビデは、神を求めてそこまで行くことができませんでした。抜き身の剣を持つ御使いを恐れたからです。

David Counts the Fighting Men(A)
21 Satan(B) rose up against Israel and incited David to take a census(C) of Israel. 2 So David said to Joab and the commanders of the troops, “Go and count(D) the Israelites from Beersheba to Dan. Then report back to me so that I may know how many there are.”
3 But Joab replied, “May the Lord multiply his troops a hundred times over.(E) My lord the king, are they not all my lord’s subjects? Why does my lord want to do this? Why should he bring guilt on Israel?”
4 The king’s word, however, overruled Joab; so Joab left and went throughout Israel and then came back to Jerusalem. 5 Joab reported the number of the fighting men to David: In all Israel(F) there were one million one hundred thousand men who could handle a sword, including four hundred and seventy thousand in Judah.
6 But Joab did not include Levi and Benjamin in the numbering, because the king’s command was repulsive to him. 7 This command was also evil in the sight of God; so he punished Israel.
8 Then David said to God, “I have sinned greatly by doing this. Now, I beg you, take away the guilt of your servant. I have done a very foolish thing.”
9 The Lord said to Gad,(G) David’s seer,(H) 10 “Go and tell David, ‘This is what the Lord says: I am giving you three options. Choose one of them for me to carry out against you.’”
11 So Gad went to David and said to him, “This is what the Lord says: ‘Take your choice: 12 three years of famine,(I) three months of being swept away[a] before your enemies, with their swords overtaking you, or three days of the sword(J) of the Lord(K)—days of plague in the land, with the angel of the Lord ravaging every part of Israel.’ Now then, decide how I should answer the one who sent me.”
13 David said to Gad, “I am in deep distress. Let me fall into the hands of the Lord, for his mercy(L) is very great; but do not let me fall into human hands.”
14 So the Lord sent a plague on Israel, and seventy thousand men of Israel fell dead.(M) 15 And God sent an angel(N) to destroy Jerusalem.(O) But as the angel was doing so, the Lord saw it and relented(P) concerning the disaster and said to the angel who was destroying(Q) the people, “Enough! Withdraw your hand.” The angel of the Lord was then standing at the threshing floor of Araunah[b] the Jebusite.
16 David looked up and saw the angel of the Lord standing between heaven and earth, with a drawn sword in his hand extended over Jerusalem. Then David and the elders, clothed in sackcloth, fell facedown.(R)
17 David said to God, “Was it not I who ordered the fighting men to be counted? I, the shepherd,[c] have sinned and done wrong. These are but sheep.(S) What have they done? Lord my God, let your hand fall on me and my family,(T) but do not let this plague remain on your people.”
David Builds an Altar
18 Then the angel of the Lord ordered Gad to tell David to go up and build an altar to the Lord on the threshing floor(U) of Araunah the Jebusite. 19 So David went up in obedience to the word that Gad had spoken in the name of the Lord.
20 While Araunah was threshing wheat,(V) he turned and saw the angel; his four sons who were with him hid themselves. 21 Then David approached, and when Araunah looked and saw him, he left the threshing floor and bowed down before David with his face to the ground.
22 David said to him, “Let me have the site of your threshing floor so I can build an altar to the Lord, that the plague on the people may be stopped. Sell it to me at the full price.”
23 Araunah said to David, “Take it! Let my lord the king do whatever pleases him. Look, I will give the oxen for the burnt offerings, the threshing sledges for the wood, and the wheat for the grain offering. I will give all this.”
24 But King David replied to Araunah, “No, I insist on paying the full price. I will not take for the Lord what is yours, or sacrifice a burnt offering that costs me nothing.”
25 So David paid Araunah six hundred shekels[d] of gold for the site. 26 David built an altar to the Lord there and sacrificed burnt offerings and fellowship offerings. He called on the Lord, and the Lord answered him with fire(W) from heaven on the altar of burnt offering.
27 Then the Lord spoke to the angel, and he put his sword back into its sheath. 28 At that time, when David saw that the Lord had answered him on the threshing floor of Araunah the Jebusite, he offered sacrifices there. 29 The tabernacle of the Lord, which Moses had made in the wilderness, and the altar of burnt offering were at that time on the high place at Gibeon.(X) 30 But David could not go before it to inquire of God, because he was afraid of the sword of the angel of the Lord.

21 And Satan stood up against Israel, and provoked David to number Israel.
2 And David said to Joab and to the rulers of the people, Go, number Israel from Beersheba even to Dan; and bring the number of them to me, that I may know it.
3 And Joab answered, The Lord make his people an hundred times so many more as they be: but, my lord the king, are they not all my lord's servants? why then doth my lord require this thing? why will he be a cause of trespass to Israel?
4 Nevertheless the king's word prevailed against Joab. Wherefore Joab departed, and went throughout all Israel, and came to Jerusalem.
5 And Joab gave the sum of the number of the people unto David. And all they of Israel were a thousand thousand and an hundred thousand men that drew sword: and Judah was four hundred threescore and ten thousand men that drew sword.
6 But Levi and Benjamin counted he not among them: for the king's word was abominable to Joab.
7 And God was displeased with this thing; therefore he smote Israel.
8 And David said unto God, I have sinned greatly, because I have done this thing: but now, I beseech thee, do away the iniquity of thy servant; for I have done very foolishly.
9 And the Lord spake unto Gad, David's seer, saying,
10 Go and tell David, saying, Thus saith the Lord, I offer thee three things: choose thee one of them, that I may do it unto thee.
11 So Gad came to David, and said unto him, Thus saith the Lord, Choose thee
12 Either three years' famine; or three months to be destroyed before thy foes, while that the sword of thine enemies overtaketh thee; or else three days the sword of the Lord, even the pestilence, in the land, and the angel of the Lord destroying throughout all the coasts of Israel. Now therefore advise thyself what word I shall bring again to him that sent me.
13 And David said unto Gad, I am in a great strait: let me fall now into the hand of the Lord; for very great are his mercies: but let me not fall into the hand of man.
14 So the Lord sent pestilence upon Israel: and there fell of Israel seventy thousand men.
15 And God sent an angel unto Jerusalem to destroy it: and as he was destroying, the Lord beheld, and he repented him of the evil, and said to the angel that destroyed, It is enough, stay now thine hand. And the angel of the Lord stood by the threshingfloor of Ornan the Jebusite.
16 And David lifted up his eyes, and saw the angel of the Lord stand between the earth and the heaven, having a drawn sword in his hand stretched out over Jerusalem. Then David and the elders of Israel, who were clothed in sackcloth, fell upon their faces.
17 And David said unto God, Is it not I that commanded the people to be numbered? even I it is that have sinned and done evil indeed; but as for these sheep, what have they done? let thine hand, I pray thee, O Lord my God, be on me, and on my father's house; but not on thy people, that they should be plagued.
18 Then the angel of the Lord commanded Gad to say to David, that David should go up, and set up an altar unto the Lord in the threshingfloor of Ornan the Jebusite.
19 And David went up at the saying of Gad, which he spake in the name of the Lord.
20 And Ornan turned back, and saw the angel; and his four sons with him hid themselves. Now Ornan was threshing wheat.
21 And as David came to Ornan, Ornan looked and saw David, and went out of the threshingfloor, and bowed himself to David with his face to the ground.
22 Then David said to Ornan, Grant me the place of this threshingfloor, that I may build an altar therein unto the Lord: thou shalt grant it me for the full price: that the plague may be stayed from the people.
23 And Ornan said unto David, Take it to thee, and let my lord the king do that which is good in his eyes: lo, I give thee the oxen also for burnt offerings, and the threshing instruments for wood, and the wheat for the meat offering; I give it all.
24 And king David said to Ornan, Nay; but I will verily buy it for the full price: for I will not take that which is thine for the Lord, nor offer burnt offerings without cost.
25 So David gave to Ornan for the place six hundred shekels of gold by weight.
26 And David built there an altar unto the Lord, and offered burnt offerings and peace offerings, and called upon the Lord; and he answered him from heaven by fire upon the altar of burnt offering.
27 And the Lord commanded the angel; and he put up his sword again into the sheath thereof.
28 At that time when David saw that the Lord had answered him in the threshingfloor of Ornan the Jebusite, then he sacrificed there.
29 For the tabernacle of the Lord, which Moses made in the wilderness, and the altar of the burnt offering, were at that season in the high place at Gibeon.
30 But David could not go before it to enquire of God: for he was afraid because of the sword of the angel of the Lord.

30 私は主をほめたたえます。
神は私を敵の手から助け出し、
敵が勝ち誇るのをお許しにならなかったからです。
2 ああ主よ。主は私の願いを聞き入れて、
元の健康な体に戻してくださいました。
3 墓の入口から、連れ戻してくださいました。
おかげで、こうして生きることができます。
4 主を信じる人よ。主を賛美し、
主のきよい御名に感謝しなさい。
5 主の怒りはつかの間ですが、
その恵みは生きる限り続きます。
たとえ、夜通し泣き明かすことがあっても、
朝には喜びが訪れます。
6-7 順境の日に、私は言いました。
「いつまでも今のままだ。
だれも私のじゃまはできない。
主が恵んでくださって、
私をびくともしない山のようにしてくださった。」
ところが、神は顔をそむけて、
祝福の川をからしたのです。
たちまち私は意気消沈し、恐怖におびえました。
8 ああ主よ。私は大声でお願いしました。
9 「主よ、私を殺したって、一文の得にもなりません。
生きていてこそ、友人の前で
あなたをたたえることができるのです。
墓に埋められたら、どうしてあなたの真実を
世間に知らせることができましょう。
10 ああ主よ、どうか私をあわれみ、助けてください。」
11 すると、神は嘆きを喜びに変え、喪服を脱がせて、
きらびやかな晴れ着を着せてくださいました。
12 墓に埋められることなく、
神に喜ばしい賛美の歌声を上げるためです。
ああ神、主よ。
私はいつまでもこの感謝の気持ちを忘れません。

for you lifted me out of the depths(B)
and did not let my enemies gloat over me.(C)
2 Lord my God, I called to you for help,(D)
and you healed me.(E)
3 You, Lord, brought me up from the realm of the dead;(F)
you spared me from going down to the pit.(G)
4 Sing(H) the praises of the Lord, you his faithful people;(I)
praise his holy name.(J)
5 For his anger(K) lasts only a moment,(L)
but his favor lasts a lifetime;(M)
weeping(N) may stay for the night,
but rejoicing comes in the morning.(O)
6 When I felt secure, I said,
“I will never be shaken.”(P)
7 Lord, when you favored me,
you made my royal mountain[c] stand firm;
but when you hid your face,(Q)
I was dismayed.

Psalm 30
King James Version
30 I will extol thee, O Lord; for thou hast lifted me up, and hast not made my foes to rejoice over me.
2 O Lord my God, I cried unto thee, and thou hast healed me.
3 O Lord, thou hast brought up my soul from the grave: thou hast kept me alive, that I should not go down to the pit.
4 Sing unto the Lord, O ye saints of his, and give thanks at the remembrance of his holiness.
5 For his anger endureth but a moment; in his favour is life: weeping may endure for a night, but joy cometh in the morning.
6 And in my prosperity I said, I shall never be moved.
7 Lord, by thy favour thou hast made my mountain to stand strong: thou didst hide thy face, and I was troubled.
8 I cried to thee, O Lord; and unto the Lord I made supplication.
9 What profit is there in my blood, when I go down to the pit? Shall the dust praise thee? shall it declare thy truth?
10 Hear, O Lord, and have mercy upon me: Lord, be thou my helper.
11 Thou hast turned for me my mourning into dancing: thou hast put off my sackcloth, and girded me with gladness;
12 To the end that my glory may sing praise to thee, and not be silent. O Lord my God, I will give thanks unto thee for ever.

テサロニケ人への手紙Ⅰ 2
Japanese Living Bible
2 愛する皆さん。私たちの訪問があなたがたに及ぼした大きな意義については、認めてくれることでしょう。 2 皆さんは、私たちがそちらに行く前に、ピリピでどんな目に会い、どれほど苦しんだか、よく知っているはずです。しかし、神から勇気を与えられた私たちは、四方八方、敵に囲まれながらも、大胆に神の福音を伝えることができました。 3 ですから、私たちが不純な動機や目的からではなく、神への信仰に動かされて伝道したことを確認してほしいのです。
伝道者としての確信
4 私たちは、神から任命された伝道者として真理だけを語るのであって、聞く者の好みに合わせて内容を変えることなど絶対にしません。 5 よくご存じのとおり、私たちはこれまで、何かをもらいたくて人にへつらったことなど一度もありません。それは神が証人になってくださいます。 6 また、私たちはキリストの使徒として、当然賞賛されてもいい権利を持っています。しかし、あなたがたからはもちろん、ほかのだれからも、そのような名誉を求めたことはありませんでした。 7 それどころか、子どもを養い、世話をする母親のように、やさしくふるまってきました。 8 心からあなたがたを愛していた私たちは、ただ神の教えを伝えるだけでなく、いのちさえ喜んで与えたいと思うほどでした。それほどまでに愛したのです。
9 愛する皆さん。私たちが、生活費のために、どれほど苦労して働いたか覚えているでしょう。そちらにいた時も、夜昼休みなく、汗水流して働きました。それは、神の福音を伝えるにあたって、だれにも経済的な負担をかけたくないと思ったからでした。 10 一人一人に対して、私たちが純粋な気持ちで、だれからも非難されないように行動したことは、神だけでなく、あなたがたも証人となってくれるはずです。 11 父親が子どもをさとすように一人一人に勧め、また、励ましてきました。それを忘れてはいないでしょう。 12 また、あなたがたの日々の生活が、あなたがたを御国と栄光とに招いてくださった神の御心にかない、喜ばれるものとなるようにと教えてきました。
13 私たちは、神に感謝せずにはいられません。私たちが伝道した時、あなたがたはそのことばを人間の口から出たものと見ず、神のことばとして聞いてくれたからです。事実、この神のことばは、信じる者の生活を一変させるものです。
14 皆さん。あなたがたはユダヤの諸教会と同じ苦しみを味わっています。つまり、彼らが同胞のユダヤ人に苦しめられたように、あなたがたも同国人に迫害されているからです。 15 ユダヤ人たちは、自分たちの預言者を殺したばかりか、主イエスさえも手にかけてしまいました。そして今は、私たちにも激しい迫害の手を伸ばし、追い出してしまったのです。その上、神にも人間にも敵対して、 16 外国人への伝道を妨害しています。彼らは、外国人はだれも救われてほしくないのです。このようにして罪に罪を重ねた彼らに対して、神の怒りがついに爆発しました。
17 兄弟たち。あなたがたのもとを離れてかなりたつので〔もっとも、心はいつもそばにいるのですが〕、もう一度、ぜひ会いたいと願っていました。 18 それで私たちは、何とかしてそちらへ行こうと努力したのです。特にこのパウロは何度も試みたのですが、そのつど、悪魔にじゃまされて果たせませんでした。 19 私たちに希望と喜びを与え、誇りの冠となってくれるものは、いったい何でしょうか。それはまさに、あなたがたなのです。そうです。主イエス・キリストが再び来られる時、御前で大きな喜びをもたらしてくれるのは、あなたがたなのです。 20 あなたがたこそ、私たちの勝利のしるしであり、また喜びなのです。
1 Thessalonians 2
New International Version
1 Thessalonians 2
New International Version
Paul’s Ministry in Thessalonica
2 You know, brothers and sisters, that our visit to you(A) was not without results.(B) 2 We had previously suffered(C) and been treated outrageously in Philippi,(D) as you know, but with the help of our God we dared to tell you his gospel in the face of strong opposition.(E) 3 For the appeal we make does not spring from error or impure motives,(F) nor are we trying to trick you.(G) 4 On the contrary, we speak as those approved by God to be entrusted with the gospel.(H) We are not trying to please people(I) but God, who tests our hearts.(J) 5 You know we never used flattery, nor did we put on a mask to cover up greed(K)—God is our witness.(L) 6 We were not looking for praise from people,(M) not from you or anyone else, even though as apostles(N) of Christ we could have asserted our authority.(O) 7 Instead, we were like young children[a] among you.
Just as a nursing mother cares for her children,(P) 8 so we cared for you. Because we loved you so much, we were delighted to share with you not only the gospel of God(Q) but our lives as well.(R) 9 Surely you remember, brothers and sisters, our toil and hardship; we worked(S) night and day in order not to be a burden to anyone(T) while we preached the gospel of God to you. 10 You are witnesses,(U) and so is God,(V) of how holy,(W) righteous and blameless we were among you who believed. 11 For you know that we dealt with each of you as a father deals with his own children,(X) 12 encouraging, comforting and urging you to live lives worthy(Y) of God, who calls(Z) you into his kingdom and glory.
13 And we also thank God continually(AA) because, when you received the word of God,(AB) which you heard from us, you accepted it not as a human word, but as it actually is, the word of God, which is indeed at work in you who believe. 14 For you, brothers and sisters, became imitators(AC) of God’s churches in Judea,(AD) which are in Christ Jesus: You suffered from your own people(AE) the same things those churches suffered from the Jews 15 who killed the Lord Jesus(AF) and the prophets(AG) and also drove us out. They displease God and are hostile to everyone 16 in their effort to keep us from speaking to the Gentiles(AH) so that they may be saved. In this way they always heap up their sins to the limit.(AI) The wrath of God has come upon them at last.[b]
Paul’s Longing to See the Thessalonians
17 But, brothers and sisters, when we were orphaned by being separated from you for a short time (in person, not in thought),(AJ) out of our intense longing we made every effort to see you.(AK) 18 For we wanted to come to you—certainly I, Paul, did, again and again—but Satan(AL) blocked our way.(AM) 19 For what is our hope, our joy, or the crown(AN) in which we will glory(AO) in the presence of our Lord Jesus when he comes?(AP) Is it not you? 20 Indeed, you are our glory(AQ) and joy.

1 Thessalonians 2
King James Version
2 For yourselves, brethren, know our entrance in unto you, that it was not in vain:
2 But even after that we had suffered before, and were shamefully entreated, as ye know, at Philippi, we were bold in our God to speak unto you the gospel of God with much contention.
3 For our exhortation was not of deceit, nor of uncleanness, nor in guile:
4 But as we were allowed of God to be put in trust with the gospel, even so we speak; not as pleasing men, but God, which trieth our hearts.
5 For neither at any time used we flattering words, as ye know, nor a cloke of covetousness; God is witness:
6 Nor of men sought we glory, neither of you, nor yet of others, when we might have been burdensome, as the apostles of Christ.
7 But we were gentle among you, even as a nurse cherisheth her children:
8 So being affectionately desirous of you, we were willing to have imparted unto you, not the gospel of God only, but also our own souls, because ye were dear unto us.
9 For ye remember, brethren, our labour and travail: for labouring night and day, because we would not be chargeable unto any of you, we preached unto you the gospel of God.
10 Ye are witnesses, and God also, how holily and justly and unblameably we behaved ourselves among you that believe:
11 As ye know how we exhorted and comforted and charged every one of you, as a father doth his children,
12 That ye would walk worthy of God, who hath called you unto his kingdom and glory.
13 For this cause also thank we God without ceasing, because, when ye received the word of God which ye heard of us, ye received it not as the word of men, but as it is in truth, the word of God, which effectually worketh also in you that believe.
14 For ye, brethren, became followers of the churches of God which in Judaea are in Christ Jesus: for ye also have suffered like things of your own countrymen, even as they have of the Jews:
15 Who both killed the Lord Jesus, and their own prophets, and have persecuted us; and they please not God, and are contrary to all men:
16 Forbidding us to speak to the Gentiles that they might be saved, to fill up their sins alway: for the wrath is come upon them to the uttermost.
17 But we, brethren, being taken from you for a short time in presence, not in heart, endeavoured the more abundantly to see your face with great desire.
18 Wherefore we would have come unto you, even I Paul, once and again; but Satan hindered us.
19 For what is our hope, or joy, or crown of rejoicing? Are not even ye in the presence of our Lord Jesus Christ at his coming?
20 For ye are our glory and joy.
