2 Kings 1
1 After the death of Ahab, Moab made itself free from the authority of Israel.
アハブの死しのちモアブ、イスラエルにそむけり
2 Now Ahaziah had a fall from the window of his room in Samaria, and was ill. And he sent men, and said to them, Put a question to Baal-zebub, the god of Ekron, about the outcome of my disease, to see if I will get well or not.
アハジヤ、サマリヤにあるその樓の欄杆よりおちて病をおこせしかば使を遣さんとして之にいひけるは往てエクロンの神バアルゼブブにわがこの病の愈るや否を問べしと
3 But the angel of the Lord said to Elijah the Tishbite, Go now, and, meeting the men sent by the king of Samaria, say to them, Is it because there is no God in Israel, that you are going to get directions from Baal-zebub, the god of Ekron?
時にヱホバの使テシベ人エリヤにいひけるは起てサマリヤ王の使にあひて之に言べし汝等がエクロンの神バアルゼブブに問んとてゆくはイスラエルに神なきがゆゑなるか
4 Give ear then to the words of the Lord: You will never again get down from the bed on to which you have gone up, but death will certainly come to you. Then Elijah went away.
是によりてヱホバかくいふ汝はその登りし牀より下ることなかるべし汝かならず死んとエリヤ乃ち往り
5 And the men he had sent came back to the king; and he said to them, Why have you come back?
使者たちアハジアに返りければアハジア彼等に何故に返りしやといふに
6 And they said to him, On our way we had a meeting with a man who said, Go back to the king who sent you and say to him, The Lord says, Is it because there is no God in Israel that you send to put a question to Baal-zebub, the god of Ekron? For this reason, you will not come down from the bed on to which you have gone up, but death will certainly come to you.
かれら之にいひけるは一箇の人上りきたりて我らに會ひわれらにいひけるは往てなんぢらを遣はせし王の所にかへり之にいふべしヱホバ斯いひたまふなんぢエクロンの神バアルゼブブに問んとて人を遣すはイスラエルに神なきがゆゑなるか然ば汝その登りし牀より下ることなかるべし汝かならず死んと
7 And he said to them, What sort of a man was it who came and said these words to you?
アハジア彼等にいひけるはそののぼりきたりて汝等に會ひ此等の言を汝らに告たる人の形状は如何なりしや
8 And they said in answer, He was a man clothed in a coat of hair, with a leather band about his body. Then he said, It is Elijah the Tishbite.
かれら對へていひけるはそれは毛深き人にして腰に革の帶をむすび居たり彼いひけるはその人はテシベ人エリヤなりと
9 Then the king sent to him a captain of fifty with his fifty men; and he went up to him where he was seated on the top of a hill, and said to him, O man of God, the king has said, Come down.
是に於て王五十人の長とその五十人をエリヤの所に遣はせり彼エリヤの所に上りゆくに視よエリヤは山の嶺に坐し居たりかれエリヤにいひけるは神の人よ王いひたまふ下るべし
10 And Elijah in answer said to the captain of fifty, If I am a man of God, may fire come down from heaven on you and on your fifty men, and put an end to you. Then fire came down from heaven and put an end to him and his fifty men.
エリヤこたへて五十人の長にいひけるはわれもし神の人たらば火天より降りて汝と汝の五十人とを燒盡すべしと火すなはち天より降りて彼とその五十人とを燒盡せり
11 Then the king sent another captain of fifty with his fifty men; and he said to Elijah, O man of God, the king says, Come down quickly.
アハジアまた他の五十人の長とその五十人をエリヤに遣せりかれ上りてエリヤにいひけるは神の人よ王かく言たまふ速かに下るべし
12 And Elijah in answer said, If I am a man of God, may fire come down from heaven on you and on your fifty men, and put an end to you. And the fire of God came down from heaven, and put an end to him and his fifty men.
エリヤ答て彼にいひけるはわれもし神の人たらば火天より降りて爾となんぢの五十人を燒盡すべしと神の火すなはち天より降りてかれとその五十人を燒盡せり
13 Then he sent a third captain of fifty with his fifty men; and the third captain of fifty went up, and falling on his knees before Elijah, requesting mercy of him, said, O man of God, let my life and the life of these your fifty servants be of value to you.
かれまた第三の五十人の長とその五十人を遣せり第三の五十人の長のぼりいたりてエリヤのまへに跪きこれに願ひていひけるは神の人よ願くはわが生命となんぢの僕なるこの五十人の生命をなんぢの目に貴重き者と見なしたまへ
14 For fire came down from heaven and put an end to the first two captains of fifty and their fifties; but now let my life be of value in your eyes.
視よ火天より降りて前の五十人の長二人とその五十人を燒盡せり然どわが生命をば汝の目に貴重き者となしたまへ
15 Then the angel of the Lord said to Elijah, Go down with him; have no fear of him. So he got up and went down with him to the king.
時にヱホバの使エリヤに云けるはかれとともに下れかれをおそるることなかれとエリヤすなはち起てかれとともに下り王の許に至り
16 And he said to him, This is the word of the Lord: Because you sent men to put a question to Baal-zebub, the god of Ekron, for this reason you will never again get down from the bed on to which you have gone up, but death will certainly come to you.
之にいひけるはヱホバかくいひたまふ汝エクロンの神バアルゼブブに問んとて使者を遣るはイスラエルにその言を問ふべき神なきがゆゑなるか是によりて汝はその登し牀より下ることなかるべし汝かならず死んと
17 So death came to him, as the Lord had said by the mouth of Elijah. And Jehoram became king in his place in the second year of the rule of Jehoram, son of Jehoshaphat, king of Judah; because he had no son.
彼エリヤの言たるヱホバの言の如く死けるが彼に子なかりしかばヨラムこれに代りて王となれり是はユダの王ヨシヤパテの子ヨラムの二年にあたる
18 Now the rest of the acts of Ahaziah, are they not recorded in the book of the history of the kings of Israel?
アハジヤのなしたる其餘の事業はイスラエルの王の歴代志の書に記載さるるにあらずや
