2 Kings 10
1 Now Ahab had seventy sons in Samaria. And Jehu wrote letters, and sent to Samaria, to the rulers of Jezreel, even the elders, and to those who brought up the sons of Ahab, saying,
アハブ、サマリヤに七十人の子あり茲にヱヒウ書をしたためてサマリヤにおくり邑の牧伯等と長老等とアハブの子等の師傳等とに傳へて云ふ
2 And now as soon as this letter comes to you, seeing your master's sons are with you, and there are with you chariots and horses, also a fortified city, and armor,
汝らの主の子等汝らとともにあり又汝等は車も馬も城もあり且武器もあれば此書汝らの許にいたらば
3 look ye out for the best and fittest of your master's sons, and set him on his father's throne, and fight for your master's house.
汝らの主の子等の中より最も優れる方正き者を選みだ出してその父の位に置ゑ汝等の主の家のために戰へよ
4 But they were exceedingly afraid, and said, Behold, the two kings did not stand before him. How then shall we stand?
彼ら大に恐れて言ふ二人の王等すでに彼に當ることを得ざりしなれば我儕いかでか當ることを得んと
5 And he who was over the household, and he who was over the city, the elders also, and those who brought up the sons, sent to Jehu, saying, We are thy servants, and will do all that thou shall bid us. We will not make any man king. Do thou that which is good in thine eyes.
乃ち家宰邑宰長老師傳等ヱヒウに言おくりけるは我儕は汝の僕なり凡て汝が我儕に命ずる事を爲ん我儕は王を立るを好まず汝の目に善と見ゆる所を爲せ
6 Then he wrote a letter the second time to them, saying, If ye be on my side, and if ye will hearken to my voice, take ye the heads of the men your master's sons, and come to me to Jezreel by tomorrow this time. Now the king's sons, being seventy persons, were with the great men of the city who reared them.
是においてヱヒウ再度かれらに書をおくりて云ふ汝らもし我に與き我言にしたがふならば汝らの主の子なる人々の首をとりて明日の今頃ヱズレルにきたりて吾許にいたれと當時王の子七十人はその師傳なる邑の貴人等とともに居る
7 And it came to pass, when the letter came to them, that they took the king's sons, and killed them, even seventy persons, and put their heads in baskets, and sent them to him to Jezreel.
その書かれらに至りしかば彼等王の子等をとらへてその七十人をことごとく殺しその首を籃につめてこれをヱズレルのヱヒウの許につかはせり
8 And a messenger came, and told him, saying, They have brought the heads of the king's sons. And he said, Lay ye them in two heaps at the entrance of the gate until the morning.
すなはち使者いたりてヱヒウに告て人衆王の子等の首をたづさへ來れりと言ければ明朝までそれを門の入口に二山に積おけと言り
9 And it came to pass in the morning, that he went out, and stood, and said to all the people, Ye are righteous. Behold, I conspired against my master, and killed him. But who smote all these?
朝におよび彼出て立ちすべての民に言ふ汝等は義し我はわが主にそむきて之を弑したり然ど此すべての者等を殺せしは誰なるぞや
10 Know now that there shall fall to the earth nothing of the word of Jehovah, which Jehovah spoke concerning the house of Ahab, for Jehovah has done that which he spoke by his servant Elijah.
然ば汝等知れヱホバがアハブの家につきて告たまひしヱホバの言は一も地に隕ず即ちヱホバはその僕エリヤによりて告し事を成たまへりと
11 So Jehu smote all who remained of the house of Ahab in Jezreel, and all his great men, and his familiar friends, and his priests, until he left to him none remaining.
斯てヱヒウはアハブの家に屬する者のヱズレルに遺れるを盡く殺しまたその一切の重立たる者その親き者およびその祭司等を殺して彼に屬する者を一人も遺さざりき
12 And he arose and departed, and went to Samaria. And as he was at the shearing-house of the shepherds in the way,
ヱヒウすなはち起て往てサマリヤに至りしがヱヒウ途にある時牧者の集會所において
13 Jehu met with the brothers of Ahaziah king of Judah, and said, Who are ye? And they answered, We are the brothers of Ahaziah, and we go down to salute the sons of the king and the sons of the queen.
ユダの王アハジアの兄弟等に遇ひ汝等は何人なるやと言けるに我儕はアハジアの兄弟なるが王の子等と王母の子等の安否を問んとて下るなりと答へたれば
14 And he said, Take them alive. And they took them alive, and killed them at the pit of the shearing-house, even forty-two men; neither did he leave any of them.
彼等を生擒れと言り即ちかれらを生擒りその集會所の穴の側にて彼等四十二人を盡く殺し一人をも遺さざりき
15 And when he was departed from there, he came upon on Jehonadab the son of Rechab coming to meet him. And he saluted him, and said to him, Is thy heart right, as my heart is with thy heart? And Jehonadab answered, It is. If it be, give me thy hand. And he gave him his hand, and he took him up to him into the chariot.
斯てヱヒウ其處より進みゆきしがレカブの子ヨナダブの己を迎にきたるに遭ければその安否をとふてこれに汝の心はわが心の汝の心と同一なるがごとくに眞實なるやと言けるにヨナダブ答へて眞實なりと言たれば然ば汝の手を我に伸よと言ひその手を伸ければ彼を挽て己の車に登らしめて
16 And he said, Come with me, and see my zeal for Jehovah. So they made him ride in his chariot.
言ふ我とともに來りて我がヱホバに熱心なるを見よと斯かれを己の車に乗しめ
17 And when he came to Samaria, he smote all who remained to Ahab in Samaria, till he had destroyed him, according to the word of Jehovah, which he spoke to Elijah.
サマリヤにいたりてアハブに屬する者のサマリヤに遺れるを盡く殺して遂にその一族を滅せりヱホバのエリヤに告たまひし言語のごとし
18 And Jehu gathered all the people together, and said to them, Ahab served Baal a little, but Jehu will serve him much.
茲にヱヒウ民をことごとく集てこれに言けるはアハブは少くバアルに事たるがヱヒウは大にこれに事へんとす
19 Now therefore call to me all the prophets of Baal, all his worshippers, and all his priests. Let none be lacking, for I have a great sacrifice to do to Baal. Whoever shall be lacking, he shall not live. But Jehu did it in subtlety, to the intent that he might destroy the worshippers of Baal.
然ば今バアルの諸の預言者諸の臣僕諸の祭司等を我許に召せ一人も來らざる者なからしめよ我大なる祭祀をバアルのためになさんとするなり凡て來らざる者は生しおかじと但しヱヒウ、バアルの僕等を滅さんとて偽りて斯なせるなり
20 And Jehu said, Sanctify a solemn assembly for Baal. And they proclaimed it.
ヱヒウすなはちバアルの祭禮を設よと言ければ之を宣たり
21 And Jehu sent through all Israel. And all the worshippers of Baal came, so that there was not a man left who did not come. And they came into the house of Baal, and the house of Baal was filled from one end to another.
是てヱヒウあまねくイスラエルに人をつかはしたればバアルの僕たる者皆きたれり一人も來らずして遺れるものはあらざりき彼等バアルの家にいりたればバアルの家は末より末まで充わたれり
22 And he said to him who was over the vestry, Bring forth vestments for all the worshippers of Baal. And he brought forth for them vestments.
時にヱヒウ衣裳を掌どる者てむかひ禮服をとりいだしてバアルの凡の僕等にあたへよといひければすなはち禮服をとりいだせり
23 And Jehu went, and Jehonadab the son of Rechab, into the house of Baal. And he said to the worshippers of Baal, Search, and look that there be here with you none of the servants of Jehovah, but the worshippers of Baal only.
斯ありてヱヒウはレカブの子ヨナダブとともにバアルの家にいりしがバアルの僕等に言ふ汝等尋ね見て此には只バアルの僕のみあらしめヱホバの僕を一人も汝らの中にあらしめざれと
24 And they went in to offer sacrifices and burnt offerings. Now Jehu had appointed for him eighty men outside, and said, If any of the men whom I bring into your hands escape, he who lets him go, his life shall be for the life of him.
彼等犠牲と燔祭を献げんとて入し時ヱヒウ八十人の者を外に置て言ふ凡てわがその手にわたすところの人を一人にても逃れしむる者は己の生命をもてその人の生命に代べしと
25 And it came to pass, as soon as he had made an end of offering the burnt offering, that Jehu said to the guard and to the captains, Go in, and kill them; let none come forth. And they smote them with the edge of the sword. And the guard and the captains cast them out, and went to the city of the house of Baal.
期て燔祭を献ぐることの終りし時ヱヒウその士卒と諸將に言ふ入てかれらを殺せ一人をも出すなかれとすなはち刃をもて彼等を撃ころせり而して士卒と諸將これを投いだしてバアルの家の内殿に入り
26 And they brought forth the pillars that were in the house of Baal, and burned them.
諸の像をバアルの家よりとりいだしてこれを燒り
27 And they broke down the pillar of Baal, and broke down the house of Baal, and made it an out-house to this day.
即ちかれらバアルの像をこぼちバアルの家をこぼち其をもて厠を造りしが今日までのこる
28 Thus Jehu destroyed Baal out of Israel.
ヱヒウかくイスラエルの中よりバアルを絶さりたりしかども
29 However from the sins of Jeroboam the son of Nebat, with which he made Israel to sin, Jehu did not depart from after them, namely, the golden calves that were in Bethel, and that were in Dan.
ヱヒウは尚かのイスラエルに罪を犯させたるネバテの子ヤラベアムの罪に離るることをせざりき即ち彼なほベテルとダンにあるところの金の犢に事たり
30 And Jehovah said to Jehu, Because thou have done well in executing that which is right in my eyes, and have done to the house of Ahab according to all that was in my heart, thy sons of the fourth generation shall sit on the throne of Israel.
ヱホバ、ヱヒウに言たまひけらく汝わが義と視るところの事を行ふにあたりて善く事をなしまたわが心にある諸の事をアハブの家になしたれば汝の子孫は四代までイスラエルの位に坐せんと
31 But Jehu did not take heed to walk in the law of Jehovah, the God of Israel, with all his heart. He did not depart from the sins of Jeroboam, with which he made Israel to sin.
然るにヱヒウは心を盡してイスラエルの神ヱホバの律法をおこなはんとはせず尚かのイスラエルに罪を犯させたるヤラベアムの罪に離れざりき
32 In those days Jehovah began to cut off from Israel. And Hazael smote them in all the borders of Israel,
是時にあたりてヱホバ、イスラエルを割くことを始めたまへりハザエルすなはちイスラエルの一切の邊境を侵し
33 from the Jordan eastward, all the land of Gilead, the Gadites, and the Reubenites, and the Manassites, from Aroer, which is by the valley of the Arnon, even Gilead and Bashan.
ヨルダンの東においてギレアデの全地ガド人ルベン人マナセ人の地を侵しアルノン河の邊なるアロエルよりギレアデにいたりバシヤンにおよべり
34 Now the rest of the acts of Jehu, and all that he did, and all his might, are they not written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Israel?
ヱヒウのその餘の行爲とその凡て爲たる事むよびその大なる能はイスラエルの王の歴代志の書に記さるるにあらずや
35 And Jehu slept with his fathers, and they buried him in Samaria. And Jehoahaz his son reigned in his stead.
ヱヒウその先祖等とともに寝りたればこれをサマリヤに葬りぬその子ヱホアハズこれに代て王となれり
36 And the time that Jehu reigned over Israel in Samaria was twenty-eight years.
ヱヒウがサマリヤにをりてイスラエルに王たりし間は二十八年なりき
