< 2 Chronicles 31 >

1 Now when all this was finished, all Israel who were present went out to the cities of Judah, and broke in pieces the pillars, and cut down the Asherim, and broke down the high places and the altars out of all Judah and Benjamin, in Ephraim also and Manasseh, until they had destroyed them all. Then all the children of Israel returned, every man to his possession, into their own cities.
この事すべて終りしかば其處に在しイスラエル人みなユダの邑々に出ゆき柱像を碎きアシラ像を斫たふしユダとベニヤミンの全地より崇邱と祭壇を崩し絶ちエフライム、マナセにも及ぼして遂にまつたく之を毀ち而してイスラエルの子孫おのおのその邑々に還りて己の產業にいたれり
2 Hezekiah appointed the divisions of the priests and the Levites after their divisions, every man according to his service, both the priests and the Levites, for burnt offerings and for peace offerings, to minister, and to give thanks, and to praise in the gates of the camp of Jehovah.
ヒゼキヤ祭司およびレビ人の班列を定めその班列にしたがひて各々にその職を行はしむ即ち祭司とレビ人をして燔祭および酬恩祭を献げしめヱホバの營の門において奉事をなし感謝をなし讃美をなさしめ
3 He appointed also the king's portion of his substance for the burnt offerings, for the morning and evening burnt offerings, and the burnt offerings for the Sabbaths, and for the new moons, and for the set feasts, as it is written in the law of Jehovah.
また己の財產の中より王の分を出して燔祭のためにす即ち朝夕の燔祭および安息日朔日節會などの燔祭のために之を出してヱホバの律法に記さるる如くす
4 Moreover he commanded the people who lived in Jerusalem to give the portion of the priests and the Levites, that they might give themselves to the law of Jehovah.
彼またヱルサレムに住む民に祭司とレビ人にその分を與へんことを命ず是かれらをしてヱホバの律法に身を委ねしめんとてなり
5 As soon as the commandment came abroad, the children of Israel gave in abundance the first fruits of grain, new wine, and oil, and honey, and of all the increase of the field; and the tithe of all things brought they in abundantly.
其命令の傳はるや否やイスラエルの子孫穀物酒油蜜ならびに田野の諸の產物の初を多く献げまた一切の物の什一を夥多しく携へきたる
6 The children of Israel and Judah, who lived in the cities of Judah, they also brought in the tithe of cattle and sheep, and the tithe of dedicated things which were consecrated to Jehovah their God, and laid them by heaps.
ユダの邑々に住るイスラエルとユダの子孫もまた牛羊の什一ならびにその神ヱホバに納むべき聖物の什一を携へきたりてこれを積疊ぬ
7 In the third month they began to lay the foundation of the heaps, and finished them in the seventh month.
三月に之を積疊ぬることを始め七月にいたりて之を終れり
8 And when Hezekiah and the leaders came and saw the heaps, they blessed Jehovah, and his people Israel.
ヒゼキヤおよび牧伯等きたりて其積疊ねたる物を見ヱホバとその民イスラエルを祝せり
9 Then Hezekiah questioned the priests and the Levites concerning the heaps.
ヒゼキヤその積疊ねたる物の事を祭司とレビ人に問尋ねければ
10 Azariah the chief priest, of the house of Zadok, answered him and said, "Since people began to bring the offerings into the house of Jehovah, we have eaten and had enough, and have left plenty: for Jehovah has blessed his people; and that which is left is this great store."
ザドクの家より出し祭司の長アザリヤ彼に應へて言けるは民ヱホバの室に禮物を携ふることを始めしより以來我儕飽までに食ひしがその餘れる所はなはだ多しヱホバその民をめぐみたまひたればなりその餘れる所かくのごとく夥多しと
11 Then Hezekiah commanded them to prepare rooms in the house of Jehovah; and they prepared them.
ヒゼキヤ、ヱホバの家の内に室を設くることを命じければ則ちこれを設け
12 They brought in the offerings and the tithes and the dedicated things faithfully: and over them Conaniah the Levite was ruler, and Shimei his brother was second.
忠實にその禮物什一および奉納物を携へいれりレビ人コナニヤこれを主どりその兄弟シメイこれに副ふ
13 Jehiel, and Azaziah, and Nahath, and Asahel, and Jerimoth, and Jozabad, and Eliel, and Ismakiah, and Mahath, and Benaiah, were overseers under the hand of Conaniah and Shimei his brother, by the appointment of Hezekiah the king, and Azariah the ruler of God's house.
ヱヒエル、アザジヤ、ナハテ、アサヘル、ヱレモテ、ヨザバデ、ヱリエル、イスマキヤ、マハテ、ベナヤ等ヒゼキヤ王および神の室の宰アザリヤの命に依りコナニヤ及びその兄弟シメイの手下につきてこれが監督者となる
14 Kore the son of Jimnah the Levite, the keeper of the east gate, was over the freewill offerings of God, to distribute the offerings of Jehovah, and the most holy things.
東の門を守る者レビ人ヱムナの子コレ神に献ぐる誠意よりの禮物を司どりてヱホバの献納物および至聖物を頒つ
15 Under him were Eden, and Miniamin, and Jeshua, and Shemaiah, Amariah, and Shecaniah, alongside the priests, to faithfully make disbursements to their brothers by divisions, as well to the great as to the small:
その手につく者はエデン、ミニヤミン、ヱシユア、シマヤ、アマリヤおよびシカニヤみな祭司の邑々に居てその職を盡しその兄弟に班列に依て之を頒つ大小ともに均し
16 besides those who were reckoned by genealogy of males, from three years old and upward, even everyone who entered into the house of Jehovah, as the duty of every day required, for their service in their offices according to their divisions.
此外にまた凡て名簿に載たる男子三歳以上にしてヱホバの室に入りその班列にしたがひて日々の職分を盡し擔任の勤務を爲すところの者に之を頒つ
17 This is the enrollment of the priests by their fathers' houses, and the Levites from twenty years old and upward, in their offices by their divisions;
またその宗家にしたがひて名簿に載られその班列にしたがひて擔任の事を執行ふところの祭司および二十歳以上のレビ人
18 and those who were reckoned by genealogy of all their little ones, their wives, and their sons, and their daughters, through all the congregation: for in their office of trust they sanctified themselves in holiness.
ならびに名簿に載たるその小き者その妻その男子その女子などに盡く之を頒つ會中すべて然り即ち彼等は潔白忠實にその職を盡せり
19 Also for the descendants of Aaron the priests, who were in the fields of the suburbs of their cities, in every city, there were men who were mentioned by name, to give portions to all the males among the priests, and to all who were reckoned by genealogy among the Levites.
また邑々の郊地に居るアロンの子孫たる祭司等のためには邑ごとに人を名指し選び祭司の中の一切の男およびレビ人の中の名簿に載せたる一切の者にその分を予へしむ
20 Hezekiah did so throughout all Judah; and he worked that which was good and right and faithful before Jehovah his God.
ヒゼキヤ、ユダ全國に斯のごとく爲し善事正き事忠實なる事をその神ヱホバの前に行へり
21 In every work that he began in the service of God's house, and in the law, and in the commandments, to seek his God, he did it with all his heart, and prospered.
凡てその神の室の職務につき律法につき誡命につきて行ひ始めてその神を求めし工は悉く心をつくして行ひてこれを成就たり
