2 Chronicles 28
1 Ahaz was twenty years old when he became king, and he reigned in Jerusalem sixteen years. And unlike David his father, he did not do what was right in the eyes of the LORD.
アハズは二十歳の時位に即きヱルサレムにて十六年の間世を治めたりしがその父ダビデと異にしてヱホバの善と觀たまふ所を行はず
2 Instead, he walked in the ways of the kings of Israel and even made cast images of the Baals.
イスラエルの王等の道にあゆみ亦諸のバアルのために像を鋳造り
3 Moreover, Ahaz burned incense in the Valley of Hinnom and sacrificed his sons in the fire, according to the abominations of the nations that the LORD had driven out before the Israelites.
ベンヒンノムの谷にて香を焚きその子を火に燒きなどしてヱホバがイスラエルの子孫の前より逐はらひたまひし異邦人の行ふところの憎むべき事に傚ひ
4 And he sacrificed and burned incense on the high places, on the hills, and under every green tree.
また崇邱の上丘の上一切の靑木の下にて犠牲をささげ香を焚り
5 So the LORD his God delivered Ahaz into the hand of the king of Aram, who attacked him and took many captives to Damascus. Ahaz was also delivered into the hand of the king of Israel, who struck him with great force.
是故にその神ヱホバかれをスリアの王の手に付したまひてスリア人つひに彼を撃破りその人々を衆く虜囚としてダマスコに曳ゆけり彼はまたイスラエルの王の手にも付されたればイスラエルの王かれを撃て大にその人を殺せり
6 For in one day Pekah son of Remaliah killed 120,000 valiant men in Judah. This happened because they had forsaken the LORD, the God of their fathers.
すなはちレマリヤの子ペカ、ユダにおいて一日の中に十二萬人を殺せり皆勇士なりき是は彼らその先祖の神ヱホバを棄しによるなり
7 Zichri, a mighty man of Ephraim, killed Maaseiah the son of the king, Azrikam the governor of the palace, and Elkanah the second to the king.
その時にエフライムの勇士ジクリといふ者王の子マアセヤ宮内卿アズリカムおよび王に亞ぐ人エルカナを殺せり
8 Then the Israelites took 200,000 captives from their kinsmen—women, sons, and daughters. They also carried off a great deal of plunder and brought it to Samaria.
イスラエルの子孫つひにその兄弟の中より婦人ならびに男子女子など合せて二十萬人を俘擄にしまた衆多の掠取物を爲しその掠取物をサマリアに携へゆけり
9 But a prophet of the LORD named Oded was there, and he went out to meet the army that returned to Samaria. “Look,” he said to them, “because of His wrath against Judah, the LORD, the God of your fathers, has delivered them into your hand. But you have slaughtered them in a rage that reaches up to heaven.
時に彼處にヱホバの預言者ありその名をオデデといふ彼サマリアに歸れる軍勢の前に進みいでて之に言けるは汝らの先祖の神ヱホバ、ユダを怒りてこれを汝らの手に付したまひしが汝らは天に達するほどの忿怒をもて之を殺せり
10 And now you intend to reduce to slavery the men and women of Judah and Jerusalem. But are you not also guilty before the LORD your God?
然のみならず汝ら今ユダとヱルサレムの子孫を圧つけて己の奴婢となさんと思ふ然ども汝ら自身もまた汝らの神ヱホバに罪を獲たる身にあらずや
11 Now therefore, listen to me and return the captives you took from your kinsmen, for the fierce anger of the LORD is upon you.”
然ば今我に聽き汝らがその兄弟の中より擄へ來りし俘擄を放ち歸せヱホバの烈しき怒なんぢらの上に臨まんとすればなりと
12 Then some of the leaders of the Ephraimites —Azariah son of Jehohanan, Berechiah son of Meshillemoth, Jehizkiah son of Shallum, and Amasa son of Hadlai—stood in opposition to those arriving from the war.
是においてエフライム人の長たる人々すなはちヨハナンの子アザリヤ、メシレモテの子ベレキヤ、シヤルムの子ヒゼキヤ、ハデライの子アマサ等戰爭より歸れる者等の前に立ふさがりて
13 “You must not bring the captives here,” they said, “for you are proposing to bring guilt upon us from the LORD and to add to our sins and our guilt. For our guilt is great, and fierce anger is upon Israel.”
之にいひけるは汝ら俘擄を此に曳いるべからず汝らは我らをしてヱホバに愆を得せしめて更に我らの罪愆を増んとす我らの愆は大にして烈しき怒イスラエルにのぞまんとするなりと
14 So the armed men left the captives and the plunder before the leaders and all the assembly.
是において兵卒等その俘擄と掠取物を牧伯等と全會衆の前に遺おきければ
15 Then the men who were designated by name arose, took charge of the captives, and provided from the plunder clothing for the naked. They clothed them, gave them sandals and food and drink, anointed their wounds, and put all the feeble on donkeys. So they brought them to Jericho, the City of Palms, to their brothers. Then they returned to Samaria.
上に名を擧げたる人々たちて俘擄を受取り掠取物の中より衣服を取てその裸なる者に着せ之に靴を穿せ食飮を爲しめ膏油を沃ぎ等しその弱き者をば盡く驢馬に乗せ斯して之を棕櫚の邑ヱリコに導きゆきてその兄弟に詣らしめ而してサマリアに歸れり
16 At that time King Ahaz sent for help from the king of Assyria.
當時アハズ王人をアツスリヤの王等に遣はして援助を乞しむ
17 The Edomites had again come and attacked Judah and carried away captives.
其はエドム人また來りてユダを攻撃ち民を擄へて去たればなり
18 The Philistines had also raided the cities of the foothills and the Negev of Judah, capturing and occupying Beth-shemesh, Aijalon, and Gederoth, as well as Soco, Timnah, and Gimzo with their villages.
ベリシテ人もまた平野の邑々およびユダの南の邑々を侵してベテシメシ、アヤロン、ゲデロテおよびシヨコとその郷里テムナとその郷里ギムゾとその郷里を取て其處に住めり
19 For the LORD humbled Judah because Ahaz king of Israel had thrown off restraint in Judah and had been most unfaithful to the LORD.
イスラエルの王アハズの故をもてヱホバかくユダを卑くしたまふ其は彼ユダの中に淫逸なる事を行ひかつヱホバにむかひて大に罪を犯したればなり
20 Then Tiglath-pileser king of Assyria came to Ahaz but afflicted him rather than strengthening him.
アツスリヤの王テグラテピレセルは彼の所に來りしかども彼に力をそへずして反てこれを煩はせり
21 Although Ahaz had taken a portion from the house of the LORD, from the royal palace, and from the princes and had presented it to the king of Assyria, it did not help him.
アハズ、ヱホバの家と王の家および牧伯等の家の物を取てアツスリヤの王に與へけれどもアハズを援くることをせざりき
22 In the time of his distress, King Ahaz became even more unfaithful to the LORD.
このアハズ王はその困難の時に當りてますますヱホバに罪を犯せり
23 Since Damascus had defeated him, he sacrificed to their gods and said, “Because the gods of the kings of Aram have helped them, I will sacrifice to them that they may help me.” But these gods were the downfall of Ahaz and of all Israel.
即ち彼おのれを撃るダマスコの神々に犠牲を献げて言ふスリアの王等の神々はその王等を助くれば我もこれに犠牲を献げん然ば彼ら我を助けんと然れども彼等はかへつてアハズとイスラエル全國を仆す者となれり
24 Then Ahaz gathered up the articles of the house of God, cut them into pieces, shut the doors of the house of the LORD, and set up altars of his own on every street corner in Jerusalem.
アハズ神の室の器皿を取聚めて神の室の器皿を切やぶりヱホバの室の戸を閉ぢヱルサレムの隅々に凡て祭壇を造り
25 In every city of Judah he built high places to offer incense to other gods, and so he provoked the LORD, the God of his fathers.
ユダの一切の邑々に崇邱を造りて別神に香を焚き等してその先祖の神ヱホバの忿怒を惹おこせり
26 As for the rest of the acts of Ahaz and all his ways, from beginning to end, they are indeed written in the Book of the Kings of Judah and Israel.
アハズのその餘の始終の行爲およびその一切の行跡はユダとイスラエルの列王の書に記さる
27 And Ahaz rested with his fathers and was buried in the city of Jerusalem, but he was not placed in the tombs of the kings of Israel. And his son Hezekiah reigned in his place.
アハズその先祖等とともに寝りたればエルサレムの邑にこれを葬れり然どイスラエルの王等の墓にはこれを持ゆかざりき其子ヒゼキヤこれに代りて王となる
