2 Kings 2
1 When the LORD was about to take Elijah up by a whirlwind into heaven, Elijah went with Elisha from Gilgal.
ヱホバ大風をもてエリヤを天に昇らしめんとしたまふ時エリヤはエリシヤとともにギルガルより出往り
2 Elijah said to Elisha, “Please wait here, for the LORD has sent me as far as Bethel.” Elisha said, “As the LORD lives, and as your soul lives, I will not leave you.” So they went down to Bethel.
エリヤ、エリシヤにいひけるは請ふここに止まれヱホバわれをベテルに遣はしたまふなりとエリシヤいひけるはヱホバは活く汝の霊魂は活く我なんぢをはなれじと彼等つひにベテルに下れり
3 The sons of the prophets who were at Bethel came out to Elisha, and said to him, “Do you know that the LORD will take away your master from over you today?” He said, “Yes, I know it. Hold your peace.”
ベテルに在る預言者の徒エリシヤの許に出きたりて之にいひけるはヱホバの今日なんぢの主をなんぢの首の上よりとらんとしたまふを汝知やかれいふ然りわれ知り汝等默すべし
4 Elijah said to him, “Elisha, please wait here, for the LORD has sent me to Jericho.” He said, “As the LORD lives, and as your soul lives, I will not leave you.” So they came to Jericho.
エリヤかれにいひけるはエリシヤよ請ふ汝ここに止れヱホバわれをヱリコに遣したまふなりとエリシヤいふヱホバは活くなんぢの霊魂は活く我なんぢを離じとかれらヱリコにいたる
5 The sons of the prophets who were at Jericho came near to Elisha, and said to him, “Do you know that the LORD will take away your master from over you today?” He answered, “Yes, I know it. Hold your peace.”
ヱリコに在る預言者の徒エリシヤに詣りて彼にいひけるはヱホバの今日なんぢの主をなんぢの首の上よりとらんとしたまふを汝知るやエリシヤ言ふ然り知り汝ら默すべしと
6 Elijah said to him, “Please wait here, for the LORD has sent me to the Jordan.” He said, “As the LORD lives, and as your soul lives, I will not leave you.” Then they both went on.
エリヤまたかれにいひけるは請ふここに止れヱホバわれをヨルダンにつかはしたまふなりとかれいふヱホバは活くなんぢの霊魂は活くわれ汝をはなれじと二人進ゆくに
7 Fifty men of the sons of the prophets went and stood opposite them at a distance; and they both stood by the Jordan.
預言者の徒五十人ゆきて遥に立て望めり彼ら二人はヨルダンの濱に立けるが
8 Elijah took his mantle, and rolled it up, and struck the waters; and they were divided here and there, so that they both went over on dry ground.
エリヤその外套をとりて之を巻き水をうちけるに此旁と彼旁にわかれたれば二人は乾ける土の上をわたれり
9 When they had gone over, Elijah said to Elisha, “Ask what I shall do for you, before I am taken from you.” Elisha said, “Please let a double portion of your spirit be on me.”
渉りける時エリヤ、エリシヤにいひけるは我が取れてなんぢを離るる前に汝わが汝になすべきことを求めよエリシヤいひけるはなんぢの霊の二の分の我にをらんことを願ふ
10 He said, “You have asked a hard thing. If you see me when I am taken from you, it will be so for you; but if not, it will not be so.”
エリヤいひけるは汝難き事を求む汝もしわが取れてなんぢを離るるを見ばこの事なんぢにならんしからずば此事なんぢにならじ
11 As they continued on and talked, behold, a chariot of fire and horses of fire separated them; and Elijah went up by a whirlwind into heaven.
彼ら進みながら語れる時火の車と火の馬あらはれて二人を隔てたりエリヤは大風にのりて天に昇れり
12 Elisha saw it, and he cried, “My father, my father, the chariots of Israel and its horsemen!” He saw him no more. Then he took hold of his own clothes and tore them in two pieces.
エリシヤ見てわが父わが父イスラエルの兵車よその騎兵よと叫びしが／再びかれを見ざりき是においてエリシヤその衣をとらへて之を二片に裂き
13 He also took up Elijah’s mantle that fell from him, and went back and stood by the bank of the Jordan.
エリヤの身よりおちたるその外套をとりあげ返りてヨルダンの岸に立ち
14 He took Elijah’s mantle that fell from him, and struck the waters, and said, “Where is the LORD, the God of Elijah?” When he also had struck the waters, they were divided apart, and Elisha went over.
エリヤの身よりおちたる外套をとりて水をうちエリヤの神ヱホバはいづくにいますやと言ひ而して己も水をうちけるに水此旁と彼旁に分れたればエリシヤすなはち渡れり
15 When the sons of the prophets who were at Jericho facing him saw him, they said, “The spirit of Elijah rests on Elisha.” They came to meet him, and bowed themselves to the ground before him.
ヱリコにある預言者の徒對岸にありて彼を見て言けるはエリヤの霊エリシヤの上にとどまるとかれら來りてかれを迎へその前に地に伏て
16 They said to him, “See now, there are with your servants fifty strong men. Please let them go and seek your master. Perhaps the LORD’s Spirit has taken him up, and put him on some mountain or into some valley.” He said, “Do not send them.”
かれにいひけるは僕等に勇力者五十人あり請ふかれらをして往てなんぢの主を尋ねしめよ恐くはヱホバの霊かれを曳あげてこれを或山か或谷に放ちしならんとエリシヤ遣すなかれと言けれども
17 When they urged him until he was ashamed, he said, “Send them.” Therefore they sent fifty men; and they searched for three days, but did not find him.
かれら彼の愧るまでに強ければすなはち遣せといへり是に於てかれら五十人の者を遣しけるが三日の間たづねたれども彼を看いださざりしかば
18 They came back to him while he stayed at Jericho; and he said to them, “Did not I tell you, ‘Do not go’?”
エリシヤの尚ヱリコに止れる時かれら返りてかれの許にいたりしにエリシヤかれらに言けるはわれ往ことなかれと汝らにいひしにあらずやと
19 The men of the city said to Elisha, “Behold, please, the situation of this city is pleasant, as my lord sees; but the water is bad, and the land is barren.”
邑の人々エリシヤにいひけるは視よ吾主の見たまふごとく此邑の建る處は善しされど水あしくしてこの地流產をおこす
20 He said, “Bring me a new jar, and put salt in it.” Then they brought it to him.
かれ言けるは新しき皿に鹽を盛て我に持ち來れよと乃ちもちきたりければ
21 He went out to the spring of the waters, and threw salt into it, and said, “The LORD says, ‘I have healed these waters. There shall not be from there any more death or barren wasteland.’”
彼いでて水の源に至り鹽を其處になげ入ていひけるはヱホバかくいひたまふわれこの水を愈す此處よりして重て死あるひは流產おこらじと
22 So the waters were healed to this day, according to Elisha’s word which he spoke.
其水すなはちエリシヤのいひし如くに愈て今日にいたる
23 He went up from there to Bethel. As he was going up by the way, some youths came out of the city and mocked him, and said to him, “Go up, you baldy! Go up, you baldy!”
かれそこよりベテルに上りしが上りて途にありけるとき小童等邑よりいでて彼を嘲り彼にむかひて禿首よのぼれ禿首よのぼれといひければ
24 He looked behind him and saw them, and cursed them in the LORD’s name. Then two female bears came out of the woods and mauled forty-two of those youths.
かれ回轉りてかれらをみヱホバの名をもてかれらを呪詛ひければ林の中より二頭の牝熊出てその兒子輩の中四十二人をさきたり
25 He went from there to Mount Carmel, and from there he returned to Samaria.
かれ彼處よりカルメル山にゆき其處よりサマリヤにかへれり
