2 Chronicles 30
1 And Hezekiah sent to all Israel, and Iudah, and also wrote letters to Ephraim and Manasseh, that they should come to the house of the Lord at Ierusalem, to keepe the Passeouer vnto the Lord God of Israel.
茲にヒゼキヤ、イスラエルとユダに遍ねく人を遣しまた書をエフライムとマナセに書おくりヱルサレムなるヱホバの室に來りてイスラエルの神ヱホバに逾越節を行はんことを勸む
2 And the King and his princes and all the Congregation had taken counsel in Ierusalem to keepe the Passeouer in the second moneth.
王すでにその牧伯等およびヱルサレムにある會衆と議り二月をもて逾越節を行はんと定めたり
3 For they could not keepe it at this time, because there were not Priests enow sanctified, neither was the people gathered to Ierusalem.
其は祭司の身を潔めし者足ず民またヱルサレムに集らざりしに因て彼時にこれを行ふことを得ざればなり
4 And the thing pleased the King, and all the Congregation.
王も會衆もこの事を見て善となし
5 And they decreed to make proclamation throughout all Israel from Beersheba euen to Dan, that they should come to keepe the Passeouer vnto the Lord God of Israel at Ierusalem: for they had not done it of a great time, as it was written.
即ちこの事を定めてベエルシバよりダンまでイスラエルに遍ねく宣布しめしヱルサレムに來りてイスラエルの神ヱホバに逾越節を行はんことを勸む是はその録されたるごとくにこれを行ふ事久しく無りしが故なり
6 So the postes went with letters by the commission of the King, and his princes, thorowout all Israel and Iudah, and with the commandement of the King, saying, Ye children of Israel, turne againe vnto the Lord God of Abraham, Izhak, and Israel, and he will returne to the remnant that are escaped of you, out of ye hands of the Kings of Asshur.
飛脚すなはち王とその牧伯等が授けし書をもちてイスラエルとユダを遍ねく行めぐり王の命を傳へて云ふイスラエルの子孫よ汝らアブラハム、イサク、イスラエルの神ヱホバに起歸れ然ばヱホバ、アツスリヤの王等の手より逃れて遺るところの汝らに歸りたまはん
7 And be not ye like your fathers, and like your brethren, which trespassed against the Lord God of their fathers: and therfore he made them desolate, as ye see.
汝らの父および兄弟の如くならざれ彼らその先祖の神ヱホバにむかひて罪を犯したればこれを滅亡に就しめたまへり汝らが見るごとし
8 Be not ye now stiffenecked like your fathers, but giue the hand to the Lord, and come into his sanctuarie, which he hath sanctified for euer, and serue the Lord your God, and the fiercenesse of his wrath shall turne away from you.
然ば汝らの父のごとく汝ら項を強くせずしてヱホバに歸服しその永久に聖別たまひし聖所に入り汝らの神ヱホバに事へよ然ればその烈しき怒なんぢらを離れん
9 For if ye returne vnto the Lord, your brethren and your children shall finde mercy before them that led them captiues, and they shall returne vnto this lande: for the Lord your God is gracious and mercifull, and will not turne away his face from you, if ye conuert vnto him.
汝ら若ヱホバに歸らば汝らの兄弟および子女その己を擄へゆきし者の前に衿憫を得て遂にまた此國にかへらん汝らの神ヱホバは恩惠あり憐憫ある者にましませば汝らこれに起かへるにおいては面を汝らに背けたまはじと
10 So the postes went from citie to citie thorow the land of Ephraim and Manasseh, euen vnto Zebulun: but they laughed them to scorne, and mocked them.
かくのごとく飛脚エフライム、マナセの國にいりて邑より邑に行めぐりて遂にゼブルンまで至りしが人衆これを嘲り笑へり
11 Neuerthelesse diuers of Asher, and Manasseh, and of Zebulun submitted themselues, and came to Ierusalem.
但しアセル、マナセおよびゼブルンの中より身を卑くしてヱルサレムに來りし者もあり
12 And the hand of God was in Iudah, so that he gaue them one heart to doe the commandement of the King, and of the rulers, according to the worde of the Lord.
またユダに於ては神その力をいだして人々に心を一にせしめ王と牧伯等がヱホバの言に依て傳へし命令を之に行はしむ
13 And there assembled to Ierusalem much people, to keepe the feast of ye vnleauened bread in the second moneth, a very great assemblie.
斯りしかば二月にいたりて民酵いれぬバンの節をおこなはんとて多くヱルサレムに來り集れりその會はなはだ大なりき
14 And they arose, and tooke away the altars that were in Ierusalem: and all those for incense tooke they away, and cast them into the brooke Kidron.
彼等すなはち起てヱルサレムにある諸の壇を取のぞきまた一切の香壇を取のぞきてこれをキデロン川に投すて
15 Afterwarde they slewe the Passeouer the fourteenth day of the seconde moneth: and the Priestes and Leuites were ashamed, and sanctified themselues, and brought the burnt offrings into the house of the Lord.
二月の十四日に逾越の物を宰れり是において祭司等およびレビ人は自ら恥ぢ身を潔めてヱホバの室に燧祭を携へきたり
16 And they stoode in their place after their maner, according to the Lawe of Moses the man of God: and the Priestes sprinkled the blood, receiued of the handes of the Leuites.
神の人モーセの律法に循ひ例に依て各々その所に立ち而して祭司等レビ人の手より血を受て灑げり
17 Because there were many in the Congregation that were not sanctified, therefore the Leuites had the charge of the killing of ye Passeouer for all that were not cleane, to sanctifie it to the Lord.
時に會衆の中に未だ身を潔めざる者多かりければレビ人その潔からざる一切の人々に代りて逾越の物を宰りてヱホバに潔め献ぐ
18 For a multitude of the people, euen a multitude of Ephraim, and Manasseh, Issachar and Zebulun had not cleansed themselues, yet did eate the Passeouer, but not as it was written: wherefore Hezekiah prayed for them, saying, The good Lord be mercifull toward him,
また衆多の民すたはちエフライム、マナセ、イツサカル、ゼブルンより來りし衆多の者未だ身を潔むる事をせずその書録されし所に違ひて逾越の物を食へり是をもてヒゼキヤこれがために祈りて云ふ
19 That prepareth his whole heart to seeke the Lord God, the God of his fathers, though he be not cleansed, according to the purification of the Sanctuarie.
惠ふかきヱホバよ凡そその心を傾けて神を求めその先祖の神ヱホバを求むる者は假令聖所の潔斎に循はざるとも願くは是を赦したまへと
20 And the Lord heard Hezekiah, and healed the people.
ヱホバ、ヒゼキヤに聽て民を醫したまへり
21 And the children of Israel that were present at Ierusalem, kept the feast of the vnleauened bread seuen dayes with great ioye, and the Leuites, and the Priestes praysed the Lord, day by day, singing with loude instruments vnto the Lord.
ヱルサレムにきたれるイスラエルの子孫は大なる喜悦をいだきて七日の間酵いれぬパンの節をおこなへり又レビ人と祭司は日々にヱホバを讃美し高聲の樂を奏してヱホバを頌へたり
22 And Hezekiah spake comfortably vnto all the Leuites that had good knowledge to sing vnto the Lord: and they did eate in that feast seuen dayes, and offred peace offrings, and praysed the Lord God of their fathers.
ヒゼキヤ、ヱホバの奉事に善通じをる一切のレビ人を深く勞らふ斯人衆酬恩祭を献げその先祖の神ヱホバに感謝して七日のあひだ節の物を食へり
23 And the whole assembly tooke counsel to keepe it other seuen dayes. So they kept it seuen dayes with ioy.
かくて又全會あひ議りて更に七日を守らんと決め喜悦をいだきてまた七日を守れり
24 For Hezekiah King of Iudah had giuen to the Congregation a thousande bullockes, and seuen thousand sheepe. And the princes had giuen to the Congregation a thousand bullocks, and ten thousand sheepe: and many Priests were sanctified.
時にユダの王ヒゼキヤは牡牛一千羊七千を會衆に餽り又牧伯等は牡牛一千羊一萬を會衆に餽れり祭司もまた衆く身を潔めたり
25 And all the Congregation of Iudah reioyced with the Priestes and the Leuites, and all the Congregation that came out of Israel, and the strangers that came out of the land of Israel, and that dwelt in Iudah.
ユダの全會衆および祭司レビ人ならびにイスラエルより來れる全會衆およびイスラエルの地より來れる異邦人とユダに住む異邦人みな喜べり
26 So there was great ioye in Ierusalem: for since the time of Salomon the sonne of Dauid King of Israel there was not the like thing in Ierusalem.
かくヱルサレムに大なる喜悦ありきイスラエルの王ダビデの子ソロモンの時より以來かくのごとき事ヱルサレムに在ざりしなり
27 Then the Priests and the Leuites arose, and blessed the people, and their voyce was heard, and their prayer came vp vnto heauen, to his holy habitation.
この時祭司レビ人起て民を祝しけるにその言聽れその祈祷ヱホバの聖き住所なる天に達せり
