1 Kings 21
1 Now Naboth the Jezreelite had a vine-garden in Jezreel, near the house of Ahab, king of Samaria.
是等の事の後ヱズレル人ナボテ、ヱズレルに葡萄園を有ちゐたりしがサマリアの王アハブの殿の側に在りければ
2 And Ahab said to Naboth, Give me your vine-garden so that I may have it for a garden of sweet plants, for it is near my house; and let me give you a better vine-garden in exchange, or, if it seems good to you, let me give you its value in money.
アハブ、ナボテに語て言けるは爾の葡萄園は近くわが家の側にあれば我に與へて蔬采の圃となさしめよ我之がために其よりも美き葡萄園を爾に與へん若し爾の心にかなはば其價を銀にて爾に予へんと
3 But Naboth said to Ahab, By the Lord, far be it from me to give you the heritage of my fathers.
ナボテ、アハブに言けるはわが父祖の產業を爾に與ふる事は決て爲べからずヱホバ禁じたまふと
4 So Ahab came into his house bitter and angry because Naboth the Jezreelite had said to him, I will not give you the heritage of my fathers. And stretching himself on the bed with his face turned away, he would take no food.
アハブはヱズレル人ナボテの己に言し言のために憂ひ且怒りて其家に入ぬ其は彼わが父祖の產業を爾に與へじと言たればなりアハブ床に臥し其面を轉けて食をなさざりき
5 But Jezebel, his wife, came to him and said, Why is your spirit so bitter that you have no desire for food?
其妻イゼベル彼の處にいりて彼に言けるは爾の心何を憂へて爾食を爲ざるや
6 And he said to her, Because I was talking to Naboth the Jezreelite, and I said to him, Let me have your vine-garden for a price, or, if it is pleasing to you, I will give you another vine-garden for it: and he said, I will not give you my vine-garden.
彼之に言けるは我ヱズレル人ナボテに語りて爾の葡萄園を銀に易て我に與へよ若また爾好ば我其に易て葡萄園を爾に與へんと彼に言たるに彼答へて我が葡萄園を爾に與へじと言たればなりと
7 Then Jezebel, his wife, said, Are you now the ruler of Israel? Get up, take food, and let your heart be glad; I will give you the vine-garden of Naboth the Jezreelite.
其妻イゼベル彼に言けるは爾今イステエルの國を治むることを爲すや興て食を爲し爾の心を樂ましめよ我ヱズレル人ナボテの葡萄園を爾に與へんと
8 So she sent a letter in Ahab's name, stamped with his stamp, to the responsible men and the chiefs who were in authority with Naboth.
彼アハブの名をもて書を書き彼の印を捺し其邑にナボテとともに住る長老と貴き人に其書をおくれり
9 And in the letter she said, Let a time of public sorrow be fixed, and put Naboth at the head of the people;
彼其書にしるして曰ふ斷食を宣傳てナボテを民の中に高く坐せしめよ
10 And get two good-for-nothing persons to come before him and give witness that he has been cursing God and the king. Then take him out and have him stoned to death.
又邪なる人二人を彼のまへに坐せしめ彼に對ひて證を爲して爾神と王を詛ひたりと言しめよ斯して彼を曳出し石にて撃て死しめよと
11 So the responsible men and the chiefs who were in authority in his town, did as Jezebel had said in the letter she sent them.
其邑の人即ち其邑に住る長老および貴き人等イゼベルが己に言つかはしたる如く即ち彼が己に遣りたる書に書したる如く爲り
12 They gave orders for a day of public sorrow, and put Naboth at the head of the people.
彼等斷食を宣達てナボテを民の中に高く坐せしめたり
13 And the two good-for-nothing persons came in and took their seats before him and gave witness against Naboth, in front of the people, saying, Naboth has been cursing God and the king. Then they took him outside the town and had him stoned to death.
時に二人の邪なる人入來りて其前に坐し其邪なる人民のまへにてナボテに對て證をなして言ふナボテ神と王を詛ひたりと人衆彼を邑の外に曳出し石にて之を撃て死しめたり
14 And they sent word to Jezebel, saying, Naboth has been stoned and is dead.
斯てイゼベルにナボテ撃れて死たりと言遣れり
15 Then Jezebel, hearing that Naboth had been stoned and was dead, said to Ahab, Get up and take as your heritage the vine-garden of Naboth the Jezreelite, which he would not give you for money, for Naboth is no longer living but is dead.
イゼベル、ナボタの撃れて死たるを聞しかばイゼベル、アハブに言けるは起て彼ヱズレル人ナボテが銀に易て爾に與ることを拒みし葡萄園を取べし其はナボテは生をらず死たればなりと
16 So Ahab, hearing that Naboth was dead, went down to the vine-garden of Naboth the Jezreelite to take it as his heritage.
アハブ、ナボテの死たるを聞しかばアハブ起ちヱズレル人ナボテの葡萄園を取んとて之に下れり
17 And the word of the Lord came to Elijah the Tishbite, saying,
時にヱホバの言テシベ人エリヤに臨みて曰ふ
18 Go down to Ahab, king of Israel, in Samaria; see, he is in the vine-garden of Naboth the Jezreelite, where he has gone to take it as his heritage.
起て下りサマリアにあるイスラエルの王アハブに會ふべし彼はナボテの葡萄園を取んとて彼處に下りをるなり
19 Say to him, The Lord says, Have you put a man to death and taken his heritage? Then say to him, The Lord says, In the place where dogs have been drinking the blood of Naboth, there will your blood become the drink of dogs.
爾彼に告て言べしヱホバ斯言ふ爾は殺し亦取たるやと又爾彼に告て言ふべしヱホバ斯言ふ犬ナボテの血を銛し處にて犬爾の身の血を銛べしと
20 And Ahab said to Elijah, Have you come face to face with me, O my hater? And he said, I have come to you because you have given yourself up to do evil in the eyes of the Lord.
アハブ、エリヤに言けるは我敵よ爾我に遇や彼言ふ我遇ふ爾ヱホバの目の前に惡を爲す事に身を委しに縁り
21 See, I will send evil on you and put an end to you completely, cutting off from Ahab every male child, him who is shut up and him who goes free in Israel;
我災害を爾に降し爾の後裔を除きアハブに屬する男はイスラエルにありて繋がれたる者も繋がれざる者も悉く絶ん
22 And I will make your family like the family of Jeroboam, the son of Nebat, and like the family of Baasha, the son of Ahijah, because you have made me angry, and have made Israel do evil.
又爾の家をネバテの子ヤラベアムの家の如くなしアヒヤの子バアシヤの家のごとくなすべし是は爾我の怒を惹起しイスラエルをして罪を犯させたるに因てなり
23 And of Jezebel the Lord said, Jezebel will become food for dogs in the heritage of Jezreel.
イゼベルに關てヱホバ亦語て言給ふ犬ヱズレルの濠にてイゼベルを食はん
24 Any man of the family of Ahab who comes to his death in the town will become food for the dogs; and he who comes to his death in the open country will be food for the birds of the air.
アハブに屬する者の邑に死るをば犬之を食ひ野に死るをば天空の鳥之を食はんと
25 (There was no one like Ahab, who gave himself up to do evil in the eyes of the Lord, moved to it by Jezebel his wife.
誠にアハブの如くヱホバの目の前に惡をなす事に身をゆだねし者はあらざりき其妻イゼベル之を慫憊たるなり
26 He did a very disgusting thing in going after false gods, doing all the things the Amorites did, whom the Lord sent out before the children of Israel.)
彼はヱホバがイスラエルの子孫のまへより逐退けたまひしアモリ人の凡てなせし如く偶像に從ひて甚だ惡むべき事を爲り
27 Hearing these words, Ahab, in great grief, put haircloth on his flesh and went without food, sleeping in haircloth, and going about quietly.
アハブ此等の言を聞ける時其衣を裂き粗麻布を體にまとひ食を斷ち粗麻布に臥し遅々に歩行り
28 Then the word of the Lord came to Elijah the Tishbite, saying,
茲にヱホバの言テシベ人エリヤに臨みて言ふ
29 Do you see how Ahab has made himself low before me? because he has made himself low before me, I will not send the evil in his life-time, but in his son's time I will send the evil on his family.
爾アハブの我前に卑下るを見るや彼わがまへに卑下るに縁て我災害を彼の世に降さずして其子の世に災害を彼の家に降すべし
