< 2 Kings 11 >

1 And when Athaliah the mother of Ahaziah saw that her son was dead, she rose up and destroyed all the royal seed.
茲にアハジアの母アタリヤその子の死たるを見て起て王の種を盡く滅したりしが
2 But Jehosheba, the daughter of king Joram, the sister of Ahaziah, took Joash the son of Ahaziah and stole him from among the king's sons that were slain, [and hid] him and his nurse in the bedchamber; and they hid him from Athaliah, so that he was not slain.
ヨラム王の女にしてアハジアの姉妹なるヱホシバといふ者アハジアの子ヨアシを王の子等の殺さるる者の中より竊みとり彼とその乳母を夜着の室にいれて彼をアタリヤに匿したれば終にころされざりき
3 And he was with her hid in the house of Jehovah six years. And Athaliah reigned over the land.
ヨアシは彼とともに六年ヱホバの家に隱れてをりアタリヤ國を治めたり
4 And in the seventh year Jehoiada sent and fetched the captains of the hundreds, of the bodyguard and the couriers, and brought them to him into the house of Jehovah, and made a covenant with them, and took an oath of them in the house of Jehovah, and shewed them the king's son.
第七年にいたりヱホヤダ人を遣して近衛兵の大將等を招きよせヱホバの家にきたりて己に就しめ彼等と契約を結び彼らにヱホバの家にて誓をなさしめて王の子を見し
5 And he commanded them saying, This is the thing which ye shall do: a third part of you, that come in on the sabbath, shall be keepers of the watch of the king's house;
かれらに命じて言ふ汝等がなすべき事は是なり汝等安息日に入きたる者は三分の一は王の家をまもり
6 and a third part shall be at the gate of Sur; and a third part at the gate behind the couriers; and ye shall keep the watch of the house for a defence.
三分の一はスル門にをり三分の一は近衛兵の後の門にをるべし斯なんぢら宮殿をまもりて人をいるべからず
7 And the two parts of you, all those that go forth on the sabbath, even they shall keep the watch of the house of Jehovah about the king.
また凡て汝等安息日に出ゆく者はその二手ともにヱホバの家において王をまもるべし
8 And ye shall encompass the king round about, every man with his weapons in his hand; and he that comes within the ranks shall be put to death; and ye shall be with the king when he goes out and when he comes in.
すなはち汝らおのおの武器を手にとりて王を環て立べし凡てその列を侵す者をば殺すべし汝等又王の出る時にも入る時にも王とともにをるべし
9 And the captains of the hundreds did according to all that Jehoiada the priest commanded; and they took every man his men, those that were to come in on the sabbath, with them that were to go forth on the sabbath, and they came to Jehoiada the priest.
是においてその將官等祭司ヱホヤダが凡て命ぜしごとくにおこなへり即ちかれらおのおの其手の人の安息日に入くべき者と安息日に出ゆくべき者とを率て祭司ヱホヤダに至りしかば
10 And the priest gave to the captains of the hundreds king David's spears and shields which were in the house of Jehovah.
祭司はヱホバの殿にあるダビデ王の槍と楯を大將等にわたせり
11 And the couriers stood by the king round about, every man with his weapons in his hand, from the right side of the house to the left side of the house, toward the altar and the house.
近衛兵はおのおの手に武器をとりて王の四周にをり殿の右の端より左の端におよびて壇と殿にそひて立つ
12 And he brought forth the king's son, and put the crown upon him, and [gave him] the testimony; and they made him king, and anointed him; and they clapped their hands, and said, Long live the king!
ヱホヤダすなはち王子を進ませて之に冠冕をいただかせ律法をわたし之を王となして之に膏をそそぎければ人衆手を拍て王長壽かれと言り
13 And Athaliah heard the noise of the couriers [and] of the people; and she came to the people into the house of Jehovah.
茲にアタリヤ近衛兵と民の聲を聞きヱホバの殿にいりて民の所にいたり
14 And she looked, and behold, the king stood on the dais, according to the custom, and the princes and the trumpeters were by the king; and all the people of the land rejoiced, and blew with trumpets. And Athaliah rent her garments and cried, Conspiracy! Conspiracy!
見るに王は常例のごとくに高座の上に立ち其傍に大將等と喇叭手立をり又國の民みな喜びて喇叭を吹をりしかばアタリヤ其衣を裂て反逆なり反逆なりと叫べり
15 And Jehoiada the priest commanded the captains of the hundreds that were set over the host, and said to them, Lead her forth without the ranks; and whosoever follows her, slay with the sword; for the priest said, Let her not be put to death in the house of Jehovah.
時に祭司ヱホヤダ大將等と軍勢の士官等に命じてこれに言ふ彼をして列の間をとほりて出しめよ彼に從がふ者をば劍をもて殺せと前にも祭司は彼をヱホバの家に殺すべからずと言おけり
16 And they made way for her, and she went by the way by which the horses entered the king's house, and there was she put to death.
是をもて彼のために路をひらきければ彼王の家の馬道をとほりゆきしが遂に其處に殺されぬ
17 And Jehoiada made a covenant between Jehovah and the king and the people, that they should be the people of Jehovah; and between the king and the people.
斯てヱホヤダはヱホと王と民の間にその皆ヱホバの民とならんといふ契約を立しめたり亦王と民の間にもこれを立しめたり
18 Then all the people of the land went into the house of Baal, and broke it down: his altars and his images they broke in pieces completely, and slew Mattan the priest of Baal before the altars. And the priest appointed officers over the house of Jehovah.
是をもて國の民みなバアルの家にいりてこれを毀ちその壇とその像を全く打碎きバアルの祭司マツタンをその壇の前に殺せり而して祭司ヱホバの家に監督者を設けたり
19 And he took the captains of the hundreds, and the bodyguard, and the couriers, and all the people of the land; and they brought down the king from the house of Jehovah, and came by the way through the gate of the couriers into the king's house. And he sat upon the throne of the kings.
ヱホヤダすなはち大將等と近衛兵と國の諸の民を率てヱホバの家より王をみちびき下り近衛兵の門の途よりして王の家にいたり王の位に坐せしめたり
20 And all the people of the land rejoiced, and the city was quiet; and they had slain Athaliah with the sword [beside] the king's house.
斯有しかば國の民はみな喜びて邑は平穩なりきアタリヤは王の家に殺されぬ
21 Jehoash was seven years old when he began to reign.
ヨアシは位に即し時七歳なりき
