2 Chronicles 18
1 And Jehoshaphat has riches and honor in abundance, and joins affinity to Ahab,
ヨシヤパテは富と貴とを極めアハブと縁を結べり
2 and goes down at the end of [certain] years to Samaria to [visit] Ahab, and Ahab sacrifices sheep and oxen in abundance for him and for the people who [are] with him, and persuades him to go up to Ramoth-Gilead.
かれ數年の後サマリアに下りてアハブを訪ければアハブ彼およびその部從のために牛羊を多く宰りギレアデのラモテに倶に攻上らんことを彼に勸む
3 And Ahab king of Israel says to Jehoshaphat king of Judah, “Do you go with me [to] Ramoth-Gilead?” And he says to him, “As I—so you, and as your people—my people, and [we go] with you into the battle.”
すなはちイスラエルの王アハブ、ユダの王ヨシヤパテに言けるは汝我とともにギレアデのラモテに攻ゆくやヨシヤパテこれに答へけるは我は汝のごとく我民は汝の民のごとし汝とともに戰門に臨まんと
4 And Jehoshaphat says to the king of Israel, “Please seek the word of YHWH this day.”
ヨシヤパテまたイスラエルの王に言けるは請ふ今日ヱホバの言を問たまへと
5 And the king of Israel gathers the prophets, four hundred men, and says to them, “Do we go to Ramoth-Gilead to battle, or do I refrain?” And they say, “Go up, and God gives [it] into the hand of the king.”
是においてイスラエルの王預言者四百人を集めて之に言けるは我らギレアデのラモテに往て戰ふべきや又は罷べきや彼等いひけるは攻上りたまへ神これを王の手に付したまふべしと
6 And Jehoshaphat says, “[Is there] not still a prophet of YHWH here, and we seek from him?”
ヨシヤパテいひけるは此外に我らの由て問べきヱホバの預言者此にあらざるや
7 And the king of Israel says to Jehoshaphat, “[There is] still one man to seek YHWH from him, and I have hated him, for he is not prophesying of good concerning me, but of evil [for] all his days, he [is] Micaiah son of Imlah”; and Jehoshaphat says, “Do not let the king say so.”
イスラエルの王こたへてヨシヤパテに言けるは外になほ一人あり我ら之によりてヱホバに問ことを得ん然ど彼は今まで我につきて善事を預言せず恒に惡き事のみを預言すれば我彼を惡むなり其者は即ちイムラの子ミカヤなりと然るにヨシヤパテこたへて王しか宣ふ勿れと言ければ
8 And the king of Israel calls to a certain officer and says, “Hurry Micaiah son of Imlah.”
イスラエルの王一人の官吏を呼てイムラの子ミカヤを急ぎ來らしめよと言り
9 And the king of Israel and Jehoshaphat king of Judah are sitting, each on his throne, clothed with garments, and they are sitting in a threshing-floor at the opening of the Gate of Samaria, and all the prophets are prophesying before them.
イスラエルの王およびユダの王ヨシヤパテは朝衣を纏ひサマリアの門の入口の廣場にて各々その位に坐し居り預言者は皆その前に預言せり
10 And Zedekiah son of Chenaanah makes horns of iron for himself and says, “Thus said YHWH:
時にケナアナの子ゼデキヤ鐵の角を造りて言けるはヱホバかく言たまふ汝是等をもてスリア人を衝て滅ぼし盡すべしと
11 With these you push Aram until you have consumed them.” And all the prophets are prophesying so, saying, “Go up [to] Ramath-Gilead and prosper, and YHWH has given [it] into the hand of the king.”
預言者みな斯預言して云ふギレアデのラモテに攻上りて勝利を得たまへヱホバこれを王の手に付したまふべしと
12 And the messenger who has gone to call for Micaiah has spoken to him, saying, “Behold, the words of the prophets [as] one mouth [are] good toward the king, and please let your word be like one of theirs: and you have spoken good.”
茲にミカヤを召んとて往たる使者これに語りて言けるは預言者等の言は一の口より出るがごとくにして王に善し請ふ汝の言をも彼らの一人のごとくなして善事を言ヘ
13 And Micaiah says “YHWH lives, surely that which my God says, I speak it.”
ミカヤ言けるはヱホバは活く我神の宣ふ所を我は陳べんと
14 And he comes to the king, and the king says to him, “Micaiah, do we go to Ramoth-Gilead to battle, or do I refrain?” And he says, “Go up, and prosper, and they are given into your hand.”
かくて王に至るに王彼に言けるはミカヤよ我らギレアデのラモテに往て戰かふべきや又は罷べきや彼言けるは上りゆきて利を得たまへ彼らは汝の手に付されんと
15 And the king says to him, “How many times am I adjuring you that you speak to me only truth in the Name of YHWH?”
王かれに言けるは我幾度なんぢを誓はせたらば汝ヱホバの名をもて唯眞實のみを我に告るや
16 And he says, “I have seen all Israel scattered on the mountains, as sheep that have no shepherd, and YHWH says, There are no masters for these, they each return to his house in peace.”
彼言けるは我イスラエルが皆牧者なき羊のごとく山に散をるを見たるがヱホバ是等の者は主なし各々やすらかに其家に歸るべしと言たまへり
17 And the king of Israel says to Jehoshaphat, “Did I not say to you [that] he does not prophesy good concerning me, but rather of evil?”
イスラエルの王是においてヨシヤパテに言けるは我なんぢに告て彼は善事を我に預言せず只惡き事のみを預言せんと言しに非ずやと
18 And [Micaiah] says, “Therefore, hear a word of YHWH: I have seen YHWH sitting on His throne, and all the host of the heavens standing on His right and His left;
ミカヤまた言けるは然ば汝らヱホバの言を聽べし我視しにヱホバその位に坐し居たまひて天の萬軍その傍に右左に立をりしが
19 and YHWH says, Who entices Ahab king of Israel, and he goes up and falls in Ramoth-Gilead? And this speaker says thus, and that speaker thus.
ヱホバ言たまひけるは誰かイスラエルの王アハブを誘ひて彼をしてギレアデのラモテにのぼりゆきて彼處に斃れしめんかと即ち一は此ごとくせんと言ひ一は彼ごとくせんと言ければ
20 And the spirit goes out, and stands before YHWH, and says, I entice him; and YHWH says to him, With what?
遂に一の霊すすみ出てヱホバの前に立ち我かれを誘はんと言たればヱホバ何をもてするかと之に問たまふに
21 And he says, I go out, and have become a spirit of falsehood in the mouth of all his prophets. And He says, You entice, and also, you are able; go out and do so.
我いでて虚言を言ふ霊となりてその諸の預言者の口にあらんと言りヱホバ言たまひけるは汝は誘なひ且これを成就ん出て然すべしと
22 And now, behold, YHWH has put a spirit of falsehood in the mouth of these prophets of yours, and YHWH has spoken calamity concerning you.”
故に視よヱホバ虚言を言ふ霊を汝のこの預言者等の口に入たまへり而してヱホバ汝に災禍を降さんと定めたまふと
23 And Zedekiah son of Chenaanah comes near and strikes Micaiah on the cheek, and says, “Where [is] this—the way the spirit [from] YHWH passed over from me to speak with you?”
時にケナアナの子ゼデキヤ近よりてミカヤの頬を批て言けるはヱホバの霊何の途より我を離れゆきて汝と言ふや
24 And Micaiah says, “Behold, you see in that day that you enter into the innermost chamber to be hidden.”
ミカヤ言けるは汝奧の室にいりて身を匿す日に見るべし
25 And the king of Israel says, “Take Micaiah, and turn him back to Amon head of the city, and to Joash son of the king,
イスラエルの王いひけるはミカヤを取てこれを邑の宰アモンおよび王の子ヨアシに曳かへりて言べし
26 and you have said, Thus said the king: Put this [one] in the house of restraint, and cause him to eat bread of oppression, and water of oppression, until my return in peace.”
王かく言ふ我が安然に歸るまで比者を牢にいれて苦惱のパンを食せ苦惱の水を飮せよと
27 And Micaiah says, “If you certainly return in peace, YHWH has not spoken by me”; and he says, “Hear, O peoples, all of them!”
ミカヤ言けるは汝もし眞に平安に歸るならばヱホバ我によりて斯宣ひし事あらずと而してまた言り汝ら民よ皆聽べしと
28 And the king of Israel goes up—and Jehoshaphat king of Judah—to Ramoth-Gilead;
かくてイスラエルの王およびユダの王ヨシヤパテはギレアデのラモテに上りゆけり
29 and the king of Israel says to Jehoshaphat to disguise himself, and to go into battle, “And you, put on your garments.” And the king of Israel disguises himself, and they go into battle.
イスラエルの王時にヨシヤパテに言けるは我は服装を變て戰陣の中にいらん汝は朝衣を纒ひたまへとイスラエルの王すなはち服装を變へ二人倶に戰陣の中にいれり
30 And the king of Aram has commanded the heads of the charioteers whom he has, saying, “You do not fight with small or with great, except with the king of Israel by himself.”
スリアの王その戰車の長等にかねて命じおけり云く汝ら小き者とか大なる者とも戰ふなかれ惟イスラエルの王とのみ戰へと
31 And it comes to pass at the heads of the charioteers seeing Jehoshaphat, that they have said, “He is the king of Israel,” and they turn around against him to fight, and Jehoshaphat cries out, and YHWH has helped him, and God entices them from him;
戰車の長等ヨシヤパテを見て是はイスラエルの王ならんと言ひ身をめぐらして之と戰はんとせしがヨシヤパテ號呼ければヱホバこれを助けたまへり即ち神彼らを感動して之を離れしめたまふ
32 indeed, it comes to pass, at the heads of the charioteers seeing that it has not been the king of Israel—they turn back from after him.
戰車の長等彼がイスラエルの王にあらざるを見しかば之を追ことをやめて引返せり
33 And a man has drawn with a bow in his simplicity, and strikes the king of Israel between the joinings and the coat of mail, and he says to the charioteer, “Turn your hand, and you have brought me out of the camp, for I have become [gravely] sick.”
茲に一箇の人何心なく弓を彎てイスラエルの王の胸當と草摺の間に射あてたれば彼その御者に言けるは我傷を受たれば汝手を旋らして我を軍中より出せと
34 And the battle increases on that day, and the king of Israel has been propped up in the chariot in front of Aram until the evening, and he dies at the time of the going in of the sun.
此日戰爭烈しくなりぬイスラエルの王は車の中に自ら扶持て立ち薄暮までスリア人をささへをりしが日の沒る頃にいたりて死り
