Chronicles II 24
1 Joas was seven years old when he began to reign, and he reigned forty years in Jerusalem: and his mother's name was Sabia of Bersabee.
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 Joas did that which right in the sight of the Lord all the days of Jodae 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 Jodae took to himself two wives, and they bore 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 afterward that it came into the heart of Joas to repair the house of the Lord.
此後ヨアシ、ヱホバの室を修繕んと志し
5 And he gathered the priests and the Levites, and said to them, Go out into the cities of Juda, and collect money of all Israel to repair the house of the Lord from year to year, and make haste to speak [of it]. But the Levites hasted 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 king Joas called Jodae the chief, and said to him, Why have you not looked after the Levites, so that they should bring from Juda and Jerusalem that which was prescribed by Moses the man of God, when he assembled Israel at 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 Gotholia was a transgressor, and her sons tore down the house of God; for they offered the holy things of the house of the Lord to 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 the king said, Let a box be made, and let it be put at the gate of the house of the Lord without.
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 let [men] proclaim in Juda an in Jerusalem, that [the people] should bring to the Lord, as Moses the servant of God spoke concerning 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 gave, and brought in, and cast into the box until it was filled.
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 And it came to pass, when they brought in the box to the officers of the king by the hand of the Levites, and when they saw that the money was more than sufficient, then came the king's scribe, and the officer of the high priest, and emptied the box, and restored it to its place. Thus they did day by day, and collected much money.
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 Jodae the priest gave it to the workmen employed in the service of the house of the Lord, and they hired masons and carpenters to repair the house of the Lord, also smiths and braziers to repair the house of the Lord.
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 And the workmen wrought, and the works prospered in their hands, and they established the house of the Lord on its foundation, 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 to the king and to Jodae the remainder of the money, and they made vessels for the house of the Lord, vessels of service for whole burnt offerings, and gold and silver [censers]: and they offered up whole burnt offerings in the house of the Lord continually all the days of Jodae.
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 And Jodae grew old, being full of days, and he died, being a hundred and thirty years old at his death.
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 with the kings in the city of David, because he had dealt well with Israel, and with God and 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 And it came to pass after the death of Jodae, [that] the princes of Juda went in, and did obeisance to the king. Then the king listened to 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 forsook the house of the Lord God of their fathers, and served the Astartes and idols: and there was wrath upon Juda and Jerusalem in that day.
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 turn them to the Lord; but they listened not: and he testified to them, but they obeyed not.
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 God came upon Azarias the son of Jodae the priest, and he stood up above the people, and said, Thus says the Lord, Why do you transgress the commandments of the Lord? so shall you not prosper; for you have forsaken the Lord, and he will forsake 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 stone him by command of king Joas in the court of the Lord's house.
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 So Joas remembered not the kindness which his father Jodae had exercised towards him, but killed his son. And as he died, he said, The Lord look upon [it], and judge.
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 after the end of the year, [that] the host of Syria went up against him, and came against Juda and Jerusalem: and they killed all the chiefs of the people among the people, and all their spoils they sent to 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 Syria came with few men, yet God gave into their hands a very large army, because they had forsaken the God of their fathers; and he brought judgments on Joas.
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 after they had departed from him, when they had left him in sore diseases, then his servants conspired against him because of the blood of the son of Jodae the priest, and killed him on his bed, and he died, and they buried him in the city of David, but they buried him not in the sepulchre 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 they that conspired against him were Zabed the son of Samaath the Ammanite, and Jozabed the son of Samareth the Moabite.
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 And all his sons, and the five came to him: and the other [matters], behold, they are written in the book of the kings. And Amasias 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
