2 Kings 12
1 Joash became king in the seventh year of the reign of Jehu, and he reigned in Jerusalem for forty years. His mother's name was Zibiah of Beersheba.
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 Joash did what was right in the Lord's sight during the years that Jehoiada the priest advised 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 Even so, the high places were not removed—the people went on sacrificing and presenting burnt offerings at these 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 Joash told the priests, “Collect together all the money that is brought as holy offerings to the Lord's Temple, whether the census money, the money from individual vows, and the money brought as a voluntary donation to the Lord's Temple.
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 each priest receive the money from those who give, and use it to repair whatever damage is discovered in the Temple.”
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 But by the twenty-third year of the reign of Joash, the priests still had not repaired the damage to 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 So King Joash called together Jehoiada and the other priests and asked, “Why haven't you repaired the damage in the Temple? Don't use any more money you're given for yourselves, instead hand it over to others to repair 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 The priests agreed not to receive any more money from the people, and that they wouldn't carry out the repairs to the Temple themselves.
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 Jehoiada the priest took a large wooden box, cut a hole in its lid, and placed it on the right side of the altar next to the entrance to the Lord's Temple. There the priests who guarded the doorway put all the money brought into the Lord's Temple into the collection box.
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 Whenever they saw there was a lot of money in the box, the king's secretary and the high priest would come, count the money brought into the Lord's Temple, and put it into bags.
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 Then they weighed out the money and gave it to the supervisors of the work on the Lord's Temple. They paid the ones doing the work—the carpenters, builders,
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 masons, and stonecutters. They also bought the timber and blocks of cut stone needed for the repair of the Lord's Temple, and paid all the other costs of restoring the Temple.
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 However, the money collected for the Lord's Temple was not used for making silver basins, lamp trimmers, bowls, trumpets, or any items of gold or silver for the Lord's Temple.
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 It was used to pay the workers doing the repairs to the Lord's Temple.
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 No accounts were demanded from the men who received the money to pay the workers because they did everything honestly.
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 The money from the guilt offerings and sin offerings was not collected for the Lord's Temple because it belonged to 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 Around this time Hazael, king of Aram, went and attacked Gath, and captured it. Then he marched to attack 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 So King Joash of Judah took all the holy objects dedicated by his forefathers Jehoshaphat, Jehoram, and Ahaziah, the kings of Judah, along with all the items he had dedicated himself, and all the gold found in the treasuries of the Lord's Temple and the royal palace, and he sent everything to Hazael, king of Aram. So Hazael retreated 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 The rest of what happened in Joash's reign and all that he did are recorded in the Book of Chronicles of the Kings of Judah.
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 His officials plotted against him and murdered him at Beth Millo, on the road that goes down to Silla.
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 The officials who attacked and killed him were Jozacar, son of Shimeath, and Jehozabad, son of Shomer. They buried him with his forefathers in the City of David. His son Amaziah succeeded him as king.
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
