2 Chronicles 24
1 Joash was seven years old when he began to reign, and he reigned forty years in Jerusalem. His mother's name also was Zibiah of Beer-sheba.
ヨアシは七歳の時位に即きヱルサレムにて四十年の間世を治めたりその母はベエルシバより出たる者にして名をヂビアといふ
2 And Joash did that which was right in the sight of YHWH all the days of Jehoiada the priest.
ヨアシは祭司ヱホヤダの世にある日の間は恒にヱホバの善と觀たまふことを行へり
3 And Jehoiada took for him two wives; and he begat sons and daughters.
ヱホヤダ彼のために二人の妻を娶れり男子女子生る
4 And it came to pass after this, that Joash was minded to repair the house of YHWH.
此後ヨアシ、ヱホバの室を修繕んと志し
5 And he gathered together the priests and the Levites, and said to them, Go out unto the cities of Judah, and gather of all Israel money to repair the house of your Elohim from year to year, and see that ye hasten the matter. Howbeit the Levites hastened it not.
祭司とレビ人を集めて之に言けるは汝ら出てユダの邑々に往き汝らの神ヱホバの室を歳々修繕ふべき金子をイスラエルの人衆より聚むべし其事を亟にせよと然るにレビ人これを亟にせざりき
6 And the king called for Jehoiada the chief, and said unto him, Why hast thou not required of the Levites to bring in out of Judah and out of Jerusalem the collection, according to the commandment of Moses the servant of YHWH, and of the congregation of Israel, for the tabernacle of witness?
王ヱホヤダ長を召てこれに言けるは汝なんぞレビ人に求めてヱホバの僕モーセおよびイスラエルの會衆の古昔證詞の幕屋のために集めたるが如き税をユダとヱルサレムより取きたらせざるやと
7 For the sons of Athaliah, that wicked woman, had broken up the house of Elohim; and also all the dedicated things of the house of YHWH did they bestow upon Baalim.
かの惡き婦アタリヤの子等神の家を壞りかつヱホバの家の諸の奉納物をバアルに供へたり
8 And at the king's commandment they made a chest, and set it without at the gate of the house of YHWH.
是において王の命にしたがひて一箇の匱を作りヱホバの室の門の外にこれを置き
9 And they made a proclamation through Judah and Jerusalem, to bring in to YHWH the collection that Moses the servant of Elohim laid upon Israel in the wilderness.
ユダとヱルサレムに宣布て汝ら神の僕モーセが荒野にてイスラエルに課したる如き税をヱホバに携へきたれと言けるに
10 And all the princes and all the people rejoiced, and brought in, and cast into the chest, until they had made an end.
一切の牧伯等および一切の民みな喜びて携へきたりその匱に投いれて遂に納めをはれり
11 Now it came to pass, that at what time the chest was brought unto the king's office by the hand of the Levites, and when they saw that there was much money, the king's scribe and the high priest's officer came and emptied the chest, and took it and carried it to his place again. Thus they did day by day, and gathered money in abundance.
レビ人その匱に金の多くあるを見てこれを王の廳に携へゆく時は王の書記と祭司の長の下役きたりてその匱を傾むけ復これを取て本の處に持ゆけり日々に斯のごとくして金を聚むること夥多し
12 And the king and Jehoiada gave it to such as did the work of the service of the house of YHWH, and hired masons and carpenters to repair the house of YHWH, and also such as wrought iron and brass to mend the house of YHWH.
而して王とヱホヤダこれをヱホバの家の工事を爲す者に付し石工および木匠を雇ひてヱホバの室を修繕はせまた鐵工および銅工を雇ひてヱホバの室を修復せしめけるが
13 So the workmen wrought, and the work was perfected by them, and they set the house of Elohim in his state, and strengthened it.
工人動作てその工事を成をへ神の室を本の状に復してこれを堅固にす
14 And when they had finished it, they brought the rest of the money before the king and Jehoiada, whereof were made vessels for the house of YHWH, even vessels to minister, and to offer withal, and spoons, and vessels of gold and silver. And they offered burnt offerings in the house of YHWH continually all the days of Jehoiada.
その旣に成るにおよびて餘れる金を王とヱホヤダの前に持いたりければ其をもてヱホバの室のために器皿を作れり即ち奉事の器献祭の器および匙ならびに金銀の器を作れりヱホヤダが世に在る日の間はヱホバの室にて燔祭をささぐること絶ざりき
15 But Jehoiada waxed old, and was full of days when he died; an hundred and thirty years old was he when he died.
ヱホヤダは年邁み日滿て死りその死る時は百三十歳なりき
16 And they buried him in the city of David among the kings, because he had done good in Israel, both toward Elohim, and toward his house.
人衆ダビデの邑にて王等の中間にこれを葬むる其は彼イスラエルの中において神とその殿とにむかひて善事をおこなひたればなり
17 Now after the death of Jehoiada came the princes of Judah, and made obeisance to the king. Then the king hearkened unto them.
ヱホヤダの死たる後ユダの牧伯等きたりて王を拝す是において王これに聽したがふ
18 And they left the house of YHWH Elohim of their fathers, and served groves and idols: and wrath came upon Judah and Jerusalem for this their trespass.
彼らその先祖の神ヱホバの室を棄てアシラ像および偶像に事へたればその愆のために震怒ユダとヱルサレムに臨めり
19 Yet he sent prophets to them, to bring them again unto YHWH; and they testified against them: but they would not give ear.
ヱホバかれらを己にひきかへさんとて預言者等を遣はし之にむかひて證をたてさせたまひしかども聽ことをせざりき
20 And the Spirit of Elohim came upon Zechariah the son of Jehoiada the priest, which stood above the people, and said unto them, Thus saith Elohim, Why transgress ye the commandments of YHWH, that ye cannot prosper? because ye have forsaken YHWH, he hath also forsaken you.
是において神の霊祭司ヱホヤダの子ゼカリヤに臨みければ彼民の前に高く起あがりて之に言けるは神かく宣ふ汝らヱホバの誡命を犯して災禍を招くは何ぞや汝らヱホバを棄たればヱホバも汝らを棄たまふと
21 And they conspired against him, and stoned him with stones at the commandment of the king in the court of the house of YHWH.
然るに人衆かれを害せんと謀り王の命によりて石をもてこれをヱホバの室の庭にて撃殺せり
22 Thus Joash the king remembered not the kindness which Jehoiada his father had done to him, but slew his son. And when he died, he said, YHWH look upon it, and require it.
斯ヨアシ王はゼカリヤの父ヱホヤダが己にほどこせし恩を念ずしてその子を殺せり彼死る時にヱホバこれを顧みこれを問討したまへと言り
23 And it came to pass at the end of the year, that the host of Syria came up against him: and they came to Judah and Jerusalem, and destroyed all the princes of the people from among the people, and sent all the spoil of them unto the king of Damascus.
かくてその年の終るにおよびてスリアの軍勢かれにむかひて攻のぼりユダとヱルサレムにいたりて民の牧伯等をことごとく民の中より滅ぼし絶ちその掠取物を凡てダマスコの王に遣れり
24 For the army of the Syrians came with a small company of men, and YHWH delivered a very great host into their hand, because they had forsaken YHWH Elohim of their fathers. So they executed judgment against Joash.
この時スリアの軍勢は小勢にて來りけるにヱホバ大軍をこれが手に付したまへり是はその先祖の神ヱホバを棄たるが故なり斯かれらヨアシを罰せり
25 And when they were departed from him, (for they left him in great diseases, ) his own servants conspired against him for the blood of the sons of Jehoiada the priest, and slew him on his bed, and he died: and they buried him in the city of David but they buried him not in the sepulchres of the kings.
スリア人ヨアシに大傷をおはせて遺去けるがヨアシの臣僕等祭司ヱホヤダの子等の血のために黨をむすびて之に叛き之をその床の上に弑して死しめたり人衆これをダビデの邑に葬れり但し王の墓には葬らざりき
26 And these are they that conspired against him; Zabad the son of Shimeath an Ammonitess, and Jehozabad the son of Shimrith a Moabitess.
黨をむすびて之に叛きし者はアンモンの婦シメアテの子ザバデおよびモアブの婦シムリテの子ヨザバデなりき
27 Now concerning his sons, and the greatness of the burdens laid upon him, and the repairing of the house of Elohim, behold, they are written in the story of the book of the kings. And Amaziah his son reigned in his stead.
ヨアシの子等の事ヨアシの告られし預言および神の室を修繕し事などは列王の書の註釋に記さるヨアシの子アマジヤこれに代りて王となれり
