< 2 Kings 12 >

1 In the seventh year of Jehu Joas began to reign: and he reigned forty years in Jerusalem. The name of his mother was Sebia of Bersabee.
ヨアシはヱヒウの七年に位に即きエルサレムにおいて四十年世を治めたりその母はベエルシバより出たるものにて名をヂビアといへり
2 And Joas did that which was right before the Lord all the days that Joiada the priest taught him.
ヨアシは祭司ヱホヤダの己を誨ふる間は恒にヱホバの善と視たまふ事をおこなへり
3 But yet he took not away the high places: for the people still sacrificed and burnt incense in the high places.
然ど崇邱は除かずしてあり民は尚その崇邱において犠牲をささげ香を焚り
4 And Joas said to the priests: O All the money of the sanctified things, which is brought into the temple of the Lord by those that pass, which is offered for the price of a soul, and which of their own accord, and of their own free heart they bring into the temple of the Lord:
茲にヨアシ祭司等に言けるは凡てヱホバの家に聖別て献納るところの金即ち核數らるる人の金估價にしたがひて出すところの身の代の金および人々が心より願てヱホバの家に持きたるところの金
5 Let the priests take it according to their order, and repair the house, wheresoever they shall see any thing that wanteth repairing.
これを祭司等おのおのその知人より受をさめ何處にても殿に破壞の見る時はこれをもてその破壞を修繕ふべしと
6 Now till the three and twentieth year of king Joas, the priests did not make the repairs of the temple.
然るにヨアシ王の二十三年におよぶまで祭司等殿の破壞を修繕ふにいたらざりしかば
7 And king Joas called Joiada the high priest and the priests, saying to them: Why do you not repair the temple? Take you therefore money no more according to your order, but restore it for the repairing of the temple.
ヨアシ王祭司ヱホヤダおよびその他の祭司等を召てこれに言ふ汝等などて殿の破壞を修繕はざるや然ば今よりは汝等の知人より金を受て自己のためにすべからず唯殿の破壞の修理に其を供ふべしと
8 And the priests were forbidden to take any more money of the people, and to make the repairs of the house.
祭司等は重て民より自己のために金を受ず又殿の破壞を修理ふことをせじと約せり
9 And Joiada the high priest took a chest and bored a hole in the top, and set it by the altar at the right hand of them that came into the house of the Lord, and the priests that kept the doors put therein all the money that was brought to the temple of the Lord.
斯て後祭司ヱホヤダ一箇の櫃をとりその蓋に孔を穿ちてこれをヱホバの家の入口の右において壇の傍に置り門守の祭司等すなはちヱホバの家に入きたるところの金をことごとくその中に入たり
10 And when they saw that there was very much money in the chest, the king’s scribe and the high priest came up, and poured it out, and counted the money that was found in the house of the Lord:
爰にその櫃の中に金の多くあることを見たれば王の書記と祭司長と上り來りてそのヱホバの家に積りし金を包みてこれを數へ
11 And they gave it out by number and measure into the hands of them that were over the builders of the house of the Lord: and they laid it out to the carpenters, and the masons that wrought in the house of the Lord,
その數へし金をこの工事をなす者に付せり即ちヱホバの家の監督者にこれを付しければ彼等またヱホバの家を修理ふところの木匠と建築師にこれを與へ
12 And made the repairs: and to them that cut stones, and to buy timber, and stones, to be hewed, that the repairs of the house of the Lord might be completely finished, and wheresoever there was need of expenses to uphold the house.
石工および琢石者に與へまたこれをもてヱホバの家の破壞を修繕ふ材木と琢石を買ひ殿を修理ふために用ふる諸の物のためにこれを費せり
13 But there were not made of the same money for the temple of the Lord, bowls, or fleshhooks, or censers, or trumpets, or any vessel of gold and silver, of the money that was brought into the temple of the Lord.
但しヱホバの家にり來れるその金をもてヱホバの家のために銀の盂燈剪鉢喇叭金の器銀の器等を造ることはせざりき
14 For it was given to them that did the work, that the temple of the Lord might be repaired.
唯これをその工事をなす者にわたして之をもてヱホバの家を修理はしめたり
15 And they reckoned not with the men that received the money to distribute it to the workmen, but they bestowed it faithfully.
またその金を手にわたして工人にはらはしめたる人々と計算をなすことをせざりき是は彼等忠厚に事をなしたればなり
16 But the money for trespass, and the money for sins, they brought not into the temple of the Lord, because it was for the priests.
愆金と罪金はヱホバの家にいらずして祭司に歸せり
17 Then Hazael king of Syria went up and fought against Geth, and took it and set his face to go up to Jerusalem.
當時スリアの王ハザエルのぼり來りてガテを攻てこれを取り而してハザエル、エルサレムに攻のぼらんとてその面をこれに向たり
18 Wherefore Joas king of Juda took all the sanctified things, which Josaphat, and Joram, and Ochozias his fathers the kings of Juda had dedicated to holy uses, and which he himself had offered: and all the silver that could be found in the treasures of the temple of the Lord, and in the king’s palace: and sent it to Hazael king of Syria, and he went off from Jerusalem.
是をもてユダの王ヨアシその先祖たるユダの王ヨシヤパテ、ヨラム、アハジア等が聖別て献げたる一切の物および自己が聖別て献げたる物ならびにヱホバの家の庫と王の家とにあるところの金を悉く取てこれをスリアの王ハザエルにおくりければ彼すなはちエルサレムを離れて去ぬ
19 And the rest of the acts of Joas, and all that he did, are they not written in the book of the words of the days of the kings of Juda?
ヨアシのその餘の行爲およびその凡て爲たる事はユダの王の歴代志の書に記さるるにあらずや
20 And his servants arose, and conspired among themselves, and slew Joas in the house of Mello in the descent of Sella.
茲にヨアシの臣僕等おこりて黨をむすびシラに下るところのミロの家にてヨアシを弑せり
21 For Josachar the son of Semaath, and Jozabad the son of Somer his servant struck him, and he died: and they buried him with his fathers in the city of David, and Amasias his son reigned in his stead.
即ちその僕シメアテの子ヨザカルとシヨメルの子ヨザバデかれを弑して死しめたればその先祖とおなじくこれをダビデの邑に葬れりその子アマジヤこれに代りて王となる
