< 2 Chronicles 33 >

1 Manasseh was twelve years old when he began to reign, and he reigned fifty and five years in Jerusalem:
マナセは十二歳の時位に即きヱルサレムにて五十五年の間世を治めたり
2 But did that which was evil in the sight of YHWH, like unto the abominations of the heathen, whom YHWH had cast out before the children of Israel.
彼はヱホバの目に惡と觀たまふことを爲しイスラエルの子孫の前よりヱホバの逐はらひたまひし國人の行ふところの憎むべき事に傚へり
3 For he built again the high places which Hezekiah his father had broken down, and he reared up altars for Baalim, and made groves, and worshipped all the host of heaven, and served them.
即ちその父ヒゼキヤの毀ちたりし崇邱を改ため築き諸のバアルのために壇を設けアシラ像を作り天の衆群を拝みて之に事へ
4 Also he built altars in the house of YHWH, whereof YHWH had said, In Jerusalem shall my name be for ever.
またヱホバが我名は永くヱルサレムに在べしと宣まひしヱホバの室の内に數箇の壇を築き
5 And he built altars for all the host of heaven in the two courts of the house of YHWH.
天の衆群のためにヱホバの室の兩の庭に壇を築き
6 And he caused his children to pass through the fire in the valley of the son of Hinnom: also he observed times, and used enchantments, and used witchcraft, and dealt with a familiar spirit, and with wizards: he wrought much evil in the sight of YHWH, to provoke him to anger.
またベンヒンノムの谷にてその子女に火の中を通らせかつ占卜を行ひ魔術をつかひ禁厭を爲し憑鬼者と卜筮師を取用ひなどしてヱホバの目に惡と視たまふ事を多く行ひてその震怒を惹起せり
7 And he set a carved image, the idol which he had made, in the house of Elohim, of which Elohim had said to David and to Solomon his son, In this house, and in Jerusalem, which I have chosen before all the tribes of Israel, will I put my name for ever:
彼またその作りし偶像を神の室に安置せり神此室につきてダビデとその子ソロモンに言たまひし事あり云く我この室と我がイスラエルの諸の支派の中より選びたるヱルサレムとに我名を永く置ん
8 Neither will I any more remove the foot of Israel from out of the land which I have appointed for your fathers; so that they will take heed to do all that I have commanded them, according to the whole law and the statutes and the ordinances by the hand of Moses.
彼らもし我が凡て命ぜし事すなはちモーセが傳へし一切の律法と法度と例典を謹みて行はば我が汝らの先祖のために定めし地より我これが足を重てうつさじと
9 So Manasseh made Judah and the inhabitants of Jerusalem to err, and to do worse than the heathen, whom YHWH had destroyed before the children of Israel.
マナセかくユダとヱルサレムの民とを迷はして惡を行はしめたり其状イスラエルの子孫の前にヱホバの滅ぼしたまひし異邦人よりも甚だし
10 And YHWH spake to Manasseh, and to his people: but they would not hearken.
ヱホバ、マナセおよびその民を諭したまひしかども聽ことをせざりき
11 Wherefore YHWH brought upon them the captains of the host of the king of Assyria, which took Manasseh among the thorns, and bound him with fetters, and carried him to Babylon.
是をもてヱホバ、アッスリヤの王の軍勢の諸將をこれに攻來らせたまひて彼等つひにマナセを鉤にて擄へ之を杻械に繋ぎてバビロンに曳ゆけり
12 And when he was in affliction, he besought YHWH his Elohim, and humbled himself greatly before the Elohim of his fathers,
然るに彼患難に罹るにおよびてその神ヱホバを和めその先祖の神の前に大に身を卑くして
13 And prayed unto him: and he was intreated of him, and heard his supplication, and brought him again to Jerusalem into his kingdom. Then Manasseh knew that YHWH he was Elohim.
神に祈りければその祈祷を容れその懇願を聽きこれをヱルサレムに携へかへりて再び國に莅ましめたまへり是によりてマナセ、ヱホバは誠に神にいますと知り
14 Now after this he built a wall without the city of David, on the west side of Gihon, in the valley, even to the entering in at the fish gate, and compassed about Ophel, and raised it up a very great height, and put captains of war in all the fenced cities of Judah.
この後かれダビデの邑の外にてギホンの西の方なる谷の内に石垣を築き魚門の入口までに及ぼし又オベルに石垣を環らして甚だ高く之を築き上げユダの一切の堅固なる邑に軍長を置き
15 And he took away the strange elohim, and the idol out of the house of YHWH, and all the altars that he had built in the mount of the house of YHWH, and in Jerusalem, and cast them out of the city.
またヱホバの室より異邦の神々および偶像を取除きヱホバの室の山とヱルサレムとに自ら築きし一切の壇を取のぞきて邑の外に投すて
16 And he repaired the altar of YHWH, and sacrificed thereon peace offerings and thank offerings, and commanded Judah to serve YHWH Elohim of Israel.
ヱホバの壇を修復ひて酬恩祭および感謝祭をその上に献げユダに命じてイスラエルの神ヱホバに事へしめたり
17 Nevertheless the people did sacrifice still in the high places, yet unto YHWH their Elohim only.
然れども民は猶崇邱にて犠牲を献ぐることなを爲り但しその神ヱホバに而已なりき
18 Now the rest of the acts of Manasseh, and his prayer unto his Elohim, and the words of the seers that spake to him in the name of YHWH Elohim of Israel, behold, they are written in the book of the kings of Israel.
マナセのその餘の行爲その神になせし祈祷およびイスラエルの神ヱホバの名をもて彼を諭せし先見者等の言はイスラエルの列王の言行録に見ゆ
19 His prayer also, and how Elohim was intreated of him, and all his sin, and his trespass, and the places wherein he built high places, and set up groves and graven images, before he was humbled: behold, they are written among the sayings of the seers.
またその祈祷を爲たる事その聽れたる事その諸の罪愆その身を卑くする前に崇邱を築きてアシラ像および刻たる像を立たる處々などはホザイの言行録の中に記さる
20 So Manasseh slept with his fathers, and they buried him in his own house: and Amon his son reigned in his stead.
マナセその先祖とともに寝りたれば之をその家に葬れり其子アモンこれに代りて王となる
21 Amon was two and twenty years old when he began to reign, and reigned two years in Jerusalem.
アモンは二十二歳の時位に即きヱルサレムにて二年の間世を治めたり
22 But he did that which was evil in the sight of YHWH, as did Manasseh his father: for Amon sacrificed unto all the carved images which Manasseh his father had made, and served them;
彼は其父マナセの爲しごとくヱホバの目に惡と觀たまふ事を爲り即ちアモンその父マナセが作りたる諸の刻たる像に犠牲を献げてこれに事へ
23 And humbled not himself before YHWH, as Manasseh his father had humbled himself; but Amon trespassed more and more.
その父マナセが身を卑くせしごとくヱホバの前に身を卑くすることを爲ざりき斯このアモン愈その愆を増たりしが
24 And his servants conspired against him, and slew him in his own house.
その臣僕黨を結びて之に叛きこれをその家の内に弑せり
25 But the people of the land slew all them that had conspired against king Amon; and the people of the land made Josiah his son king in his stead.
然るに國の民その黨を結びてアモン王に叛きし者等を盡く誅し而して國の民その子ヨシアを王となしてその後を嗣しむ
