2 Kings 18
1 Now it came to pass in the third year of Hoshea son of Elah king of Israel, [that] Hezekiah the son of Ahaz king of Judah began to reign.
イスラエルの王エラの子ホセアの三年にユダの王アハズの子ヒゼキア王となれり
2 Twenty and five years old was he when he began to reign; and he reigned twenty and nine years in Jerusalem. His mother’s name also [was] Abi, the daughter of Zachariah.
彼は王となれる時二十五歳にしてエルサレムにて二十九年世ををさめたりその母はザカリヤの女にして名をアビといへり
3 And he did [that which was] right in the sight of the LORD, according to all that David his father did.
ヒゼキヤはその父ダビデの凡てなせしごとくヱホバの善と見たまふ事をなし
4 He removed the high places, and brake the images, and cut down the groves, and brake in pieces the brasen serpent that Moses had made: for unto those days the children of Israel did burn incense to it: and he called it Nehushtan.
崇邱を除き偶像を毀ちアシラ像を斫たふしモーセの造りし銅の蛇を打碎けりこの時までイスラエルの子孫その蛇にむかひて香を焚たればなり人々これをネホシタン(銅物)と稱なせり
5 He trusted in the LORD God of Israel; so that after him was none like him among all the kings of Judah, nor [any] that were before him.
ヒゼキヤはイスラエルの神ヱホバを賴り是をもて彼の後にも彼の先にもユダの諸の王等の中に彼に如ものなかりき
6 For he clave to the LORD, [and] departed not from following him, but kept his commandments, which the LORD commanded Moses.
即ち彼は固くヱホバに身をよせてこれに從ふことをやめずヱホバがモーセに命じたまひしその誡命を守れり
7 And the LORD was with him; [and] he prospered whithersoever he went forth: and he rebelled against the king of Assyria, and served him not.
ヱホバ彼とともに在したれば彼はその往ところにて凡て利達を得たり彼はアッスリヤの王に叛きてこれに事へざりき
8 He smote the Philistines, [even] unto Gaza, and the borders thereof, from the tower of the watchmen to the fenced city.
彼ペリシテ人を撃敗りてガザにいたりその境に達し看守臺より城にまで及べり
9 And it came to pass in the fourth year of king Hezekiah, which [was] the seventh year of Hoshea son of Elah king of Israel, [that] Shalmaneser king of Assyria came up against Samaria, and besieged it.
ヒゼキヤ王の四年すなはちイスラエルの王エラの子ホセアの七年にアッスリヤの王シヤルマネセル、サマリヤに攻のぼりてこれを圍みけるが
10 And at the end of three years they took it: [even] in the sixth year of Hezekiah, that [is] the ninth year of Hoshea king of Israel, Samaria was taken.
三年の後つひに之を取りサマリヤの取れしはヒゼキヤの六年にしてイスラエルの王ホセアの九年にあたる
11 And the king of Assyria did carry away Israel unto Assyria, and put them in Halah and in Habor [by] the river of Gozan, and in the cities of the Medes:
アッスリヤの王イスラエルをアッスリヤに擄へゆきてこれをハラとゴザン河の邊とメデアの邑々におきぬ
12 Because they obeyed not the voice of the LORD their God, but transgressed his covenant, [and] all that Moses the servant of the LORD commanded, and would not hear [them], nor do [them].
是は彼等その神ヱホバの言に遵はずその契約を破りヱホバの僕モーセが凡て命じたる事をやぶりこれを聽ことも行ふこともせざるによりてなり
13 Now in the fourteenth year of king Hezekiah did Sennacherib king of Assyria come up against all the fenced cities of Judah, and took them.
ヒゼキヤ王の十四年にアッスリヤの王セナケリブ攻のぼりてユダの諸の堅き邑を取ければ
14 And Hezekiah king of Judah sent to the king of Assyria to Lachish, saying, I have offended; return from me: that which thou puttest on me will I bear. And the king of Assyria appointed unto Hezekiah king of Judah three hundred talents of silver and thirty talents of gold.
ユダの王ヒゼキヤ人をラキシにつかはしてアッスリヤの王にいたらしめて言ふ我過てり我を離れて歸りたまへ汝が我に蒙らしむる者は我これを爲べしとアッスリヤの王すなはち銀三百タラント金三十タラントをユダの王ヒゼキヤに課したり
15 And Hezekiah gave [him] all the silver that was found in the house of the LORD, and in the treasures of the king’s house.
是においてヒゼキヤ、ヱホバの家と王の家の庫とにあるところの銀をことごとく彼に與へたり
16 At that time did Hezekiah cut off [the gold from] the doors of the temple of the LORD, and [from] the pillars which Hezekiah king of Judah had overlaid, and gave it to the king of Assyria.
此時ユダの王ヒゼキヤまた己が金を著たりしヱホバの宮の戸および柱を剥てこれをアッスリヤの王に與へたり
17 And the king of Assyria sent Tartan and Rabsaris and Rab-shakeh from Lachish to king Hezekiah with a great host against Jerusalem. And they went up and came to Jerusalem. And when they were come up, they came and stood by the conduit of the upper pool, which [is] in the highway of the fuller’s field.
アッスリヤの王またタルタン、ラブサリスおよびラブシヤケをしてラキシより大軍をひきゐてエルサレムにむかひてヒゼキヤ王の所にいたらしめたればすなはち上りてエルサレムにきたれり彼等則ち上り來り漂布場の大路に沿るよの池塘の水道の邊にいたりて立り
18 And when they had called to the king, there came out to them Eliakim the son of Hilkiah, which [was] over the household, and Shebna the scribe, and Joah the son of Asaph the recorder.
而して彼等王を呼たればヒルキヤの子なる宮内卿エリアキム書記官セブナおよびアサフの子なる史官ヨア出きたりて彼等に詣りけるに
19 And Rab-shakeh said unto them, Speak ye now to Hezekiah, Thus saith the great king, the king of Assyria, What confidence [is] this wherein thou trustest?
ラブシヤケこれに言けるは汝等ヒゼキヤに言べし大王アッスリヤの王かく言たまふ此汝が賴むところの者は何ぞや
20 Thou sayest, (but [they are but] vain words, ) [I have] counsel and strength for the war. Now on whom dost thou trust, that thou rebellest against me?
汝戰爭をなすの謀計と勇力とを言も只これ口の先の言語たるのみ誰を恃みて我に叛くことをせしや
21 Now, behold, thou trustest upon the staff of this bruised reed, [even] upon Egypt, on which if a man lean, it will go into his hand, and pierce it: so [is] Pharaoh king of Egypt unto all that trust on him.
視よ汝は折かかれる葦の杖なるエジプトを賴む其は人の其に倚るあればすなはちその手を刺とほすなりエジプトの王パロは凡てこれを賴む者に斯あるなり
22 But if ye say unto me, We trust in the LORD our God: [is] not that he, whose high places and whose altars Hezekiah hath taken away, and hath said to Judah and Jerusalem, Ye shall worship before this altar in Jerusalem?
汝等あるひは我はわれらの神ヱホバを賴むと我に言ん彼はヒゼキヤがその崇邱と祭壇とを除きたる者にあらずやまた彼はユダとエルサレムに告て汝等はエルサレムに於てこの壇の前に祷拝をなすべしと言しにあらずや
23 Now therefore, I pray thee, give pledges to my lord the king of Assyria, and I will deliver thee two thousand horses, if thou be able on thy part to set riders upon them.
然ば請ふわが主君アッスリヤの王に約をなせ汝もし人を乗しむることを得ば我馬二千匹を汝にあたへん
24 How then wilt thou turn away the face of one captain of the least of my master’s servants, and put thy trust on Egypt for chariots and for horsemen?
汝いかにしてか吾主君の諸臣の中の最も微き一將だにも退くることを得ん汝なんぞエジプトを賴みて兵車と騎兵をこれに仰がんとするや
25 Am I now come up without the LORD against this place to destroy it? The LORD said to me, Go up against this land, and destroy it.
また我とても今ヱホバの旨によらずして比處を滅しに上れるならんやヱホバ我に此處に攻のぼりてこれを滅せと言たり
26 Then said Eliakim the son of Hilkiah, and Shebna, and Joah, unto Rab-shakeh, Speak, I pray thee, to thy servants in the Syrian language; for we understand [it: ] and talk not with us in the Jews’ language in the ears of the people that [are] on the wall.
時にヒルキヤの子エリアキムおよびセブナとヨア、ラダシヤケにいひけるは請ふスリアの語をもて僕等に語りたまへ我儕これを識なり石垣の上にをる民の聞るところにてユダヤ語をもて我儕に言談たまふなかれ
27 But Rab-shakeh said unto them, Hath my master sent me to thy master, and to thee, to speak these words? [hath he] not [sent me] to the men which sit on the wall, that they may eat their own dung, and drink their own piss with you?
ラブシヤケかれらに言ふわが君唯我を汝の主と汝とにつかはして此言をのべしめたまふならんや亦石垣の上に坐する人々にも我を遣して彼等をして汝等とともに自己の便溺を食ひ且飮にいたらしめんとしたまふにあらずやと
28 Then Rab-shakeh stood and cried with a loud voice in the Jews’ language, and spake, saying, Hear the word of the great king, the king of Assyria:
而してラブシヤケ起あがりユダヤ語をもて大聲に呼はり言をいだして曰けるは汝等大王アッスリヤの王の言を聽け
29 Thus saith the king, Let not Hezekiah deceive you: for he shall not be able to deliver you out of his hand:
王かく言たまふ汝等ヒゼキヤに欺かるるなかれ彼は汝等をわが手より救ひいだすことをえざるなり
30 Neither let Hezekiah make you trust in the LORD, saying, The LORD will surely deliver us, and this city shall not be delivered into the hand of the king of Assyria.
ヒゼキヤがヱホバかならず我らを救ひたまはん此邑はアッスリヤの王の手に陷らじと言て汝らにヱホバを賴ましめんとするとも
31 Hearken not to Hezekiah: for thus saith the king of Assyria, Make [an agreement] with me by a present, and come out to me, and [then] eat ye every man of his own vine, and every one of his fig tree, and drink ye every one the waters of his cistern:
汝等ヒゼキヤの言を聽なかれアッスリヤの王かく言たまふ汝等約をなして我に降れ而して各人おのれの葡萄の樹の果を食ひ各人おのれの無花果樹の果をくらひ各人おのれの井水を飮めよ
32 Until I come and take you away to a land like your own land, a land of corn and wine, a land of bread and vineyards, a land of oil olive and of honey, that ye may live, and not die: and hearken not unto Hezekiah, when he persuadeth you, saying, The LORD will deliver us.
我來りて汝等を一の國に携ゆかん其は汝儕の國のごとき國穀と酒のある地パンと葡萄園のある地油の出る橄欖と蜜とのある地なり汝等は生ることを得ん死ることあらじヒゼキヤ、ヱホバ我儕を救ひたまはんと言て汝らを勸るともこれを聽なかれ
33 Hath any of the gods of the nations delivered at all his land out of the hand of the king of Assyria?
國々の神の中執かその國をアッスリヤの王の手より救ひたりしや
34 Where [are] the gods of Hamath, and of Arpad? where [are] the gods of Sepharvaim, Hena, and Ivah? have they delivered Samaria out of mine hand?
ハマテおよびアルパデの神々は何處にあるセパルワイム、ヘナおよびアワの神々は何處にあるやサマリヤをわが手より救ひ出せし神々あるや
35 Who [are] they among all the gods of the countries, that have delivered their country out of mine hand, that the LORD should deliver Jerusalem out of mine hand?
國々の神の中にその國をわが手より救ひいだせし者ありしや然ばヱホバいかでかエルサレムをわが手より救ひいだすことを得んと
36 But the people held their peace, and answered him not a word: for the king’s commandment was, saying, Answer him not.
然ども民は默して一言もこれに應へざりき其は王命じてこれに應ふるなかれと言おきたればなり
37 Then came Eliakim the son of Hilkiah, which [was] over the household, and Shebna the scribe, and Joah the son of Asaph the recorder, to Hezekiah with [their] clothes rent, and told him the words of Rab-shakeh.
かくてヒルキヤの子なる宮内卿エリアキム書記官セブナおよびアサの子なる史官ヨアその衣をさきてヒゼキヤの許にいたりラブシヤケの言をこれに告たり
