< 2 Chronicles 25 >

1 Amaziah was twenty and five years old when he began to reign; and he reigned twenty and nine years in Jerusalem: and his mother’s name was Jehoaddan of Jerusalem.
アマジヤは二十五歳の時位に即きヱルサレムにて二十九年の間世を治めたりその母はヱルサレムの者にして名をヱホアダンといふ
2 And he did that which was right in the eyes of the LORD, but not with a perfect heart.
アマジヤはヱホバの善と視たまふ事を行なひしかども心を全うしてこれを爲ざりき
3 Now it came to pass, when the kingdom was established unto him, that he slew his servants which had killed the king his father.
彼國のおのが手に堅く立つにおよびてその父王を弑せし臣僕等を殺せり
4 But he put not their children to death, but did according to that which is written in the law in the book of Moses, as the LORD commanded, saying, The fathers shall not die for the children, neither shall the children die for the fathers; but every man shall die for his own sin.
然どその子女等をば殺さずしてモーセの書の律法に記せるごとく爲り即ちヱホバ命じて言たまはく父はその子女の故によりて殺さるべからず子女はその父の故によりて殺さるべからず各々おのれの罪によりて殺さるべきなりと
5 Moreover Amaziah gathered Judah together, and ordered them according to their fathers’ houses, under captains of thousands and captains of hundreds, even all Judah and Benjamin: and he numbered them from twenty years old and upward, and found them three hundred thousand chosen men, able to go forth to war, that could handle spear and shield.
アマジヤ、ユダの人を集めその父祖の家にしたがひて或は千人の長に附屬せしめ或に百人の長に附屬せしむユダとベニヤミンともに然り且二十歳以上の者を數へ戈と楯とを執て戰闘に臨む倔強の士三十萬を得
6 He hired also an hundred thousand mighty men of valour out of Israel for an hundred talents of silver.
また銀百タラントをもてイスラエルより大勇士十萬を傭へり
7 But there came a man of God to him, saying, O king, let not the army of Israel go with thee; for the LORD is not with Israel, [to wit], with all the children of Ephraim.
時に神の人かれに詣りて言けるは王よイスラエルの軍勢をして汝とともに往しむる勿れヱホバはイスラエル人すなはちエフライムの子孫とは偕にいまさざるなり
8 But if thou wilt go, do [valiantly], be strong for the battle: God shall cast thee down before the enemy; for God hath power to help, and to cast down.
汝もし往ば心を強くして戰闘を爲せ神なんぢをして敵の前に斃れしめたまはん神は助くる力ありまた倒す力あるなり
9 And Amaziah said to the man of God, But what shall we do for the hundred talents which I have given to the army of Israel? And the man of God answered, The LORD is able to give thee much more than this.
アマジヤ神の人にいひけるは然ば已にイスラエルの軍隊に與へたる百タラントを如何にすべきや神の人答へけるはヱホバは其よりも多き者を汝に賜ふことを得るなりと
10 Then Amaziah separated them, [to wit], the army that was come to him out of Ephraim, to go home again: wherefore their anger was greatly kindled against Judah, and they returned home in fierce anger.
是においてアマジヤかのエフライムより來りて己に就る軍隊を分離してその處に歸らしめければ彼らユダにむかひて烈しく怒を發し火のごとくに怒りてその處に歸れり
11 And Amaziah took courage, and led forth his people, and went to the Valley of Salt, and smote of the children of Seir ten thousand.
かくてアマジヤは力を強くしその民を率ゐて鹽の谷に往きセイル人一萬を撃殺せり
12 And [other] ten thousand did the children of Judah carry away alive, and brought them unto the top of the rock, and cast them down from the top of the rock, that they all were broken in pieces.
ユダの子孫またこの外に一萬人を生擒て磐の頂に曳ゆき磐の頂よりこれを投おとしければ皆微塵に碎けたり
13 But the men of the army which Amaziah sent back, that they should not go with him to battle, fell upon the cities of Judah, from Samaria even unto Beth-horon, and smote of them three thousand, and took much spoil.
前にアマジヤが己とともに戰闘に往べからずとして歸し遣たる軍卒等サマリアよりベテホロンまでのユダの邑々を襲ひ人三千を撃ころし物を多く奪ふ
14 Now it came to pass, after that Amaziah was come from the slaughter of the Edomites, that he brought the gods of the children of Seir, and set them up to be his gods, and bowed down himself before them, and burned incense unto them.
アマジヤ、エドム人を戮して歸る時にセイル人の神々を携さへ來り之を安置して己の神となしその前に禮拝をなし之に香を焚り
15 Wherefore the anger of the LORD was kindled against Amaziah, and he sent unto him a prophet, which said unto him, Why hast thou sought after the gods of the people, which have not delivered their own people out of thine hand?
是をもてヱホバ、アマジヤにむかひて怒を發し預言者をこれに遣はして言しめたまひけるは彼民の神々は己の民を汝の手より救ふことを得ざりし者なるに汝なにとて之を求むるや
16 And it came to pass, as he talked with him, that [the king] said unto him, Have we made thee of the king’s counsel? forbear; why shouldest thou be smitten? Then the prophet forbare, and said, I know that God hath determined to destroy thee, because thou hast done this, and hast not hearkened unto my counsel.
彼かく王に語れる時王これにむかひ我儕汝を王の議官となせしや止よ汝なんぞ撃殺されんとするやと言ければ預言者すなはち止て言り我知る汝この事を行びて吾諌を聽いれざるによりて神なんぢを滅ぼさんと決めたまふと
17 Then Amaziah king of Judah took advice, and sent to Joash, the son of Jehoahaz the son of Jehu, king of Israel, saying, Come, let us look one another in the face.
斯てユダの王アマジヤ相議りて人をヱヒウの子ヱホアハズの子なるイスラエルの王ヨアシに遣し來れ我儕たがひに面をあはせんと言しめければ
18 And Joash king of Israel sent to Amaziah king of Judah, saying, The thistle that was in Lebanon sent to the cedar that was in Lebanon, saying, Give thy daughter to my son to wife: and there passed by a wild beast that was in Lebanon; and trode down the thistle.
イスラエルの王ヨアシ、ユダの王アマジヤに言おくりけるはレバノンの荊蕀かつてレバノンの香柏に汝の女子を我子の妻に與へよと言おくりたること有しにレバノンの野獣とほりてその荊蕀を踏たふせり
19 Thou sayest, Lo, thou hast smitten Edom; and thine heart lifteth thee up to boast: abide now at home; why shouldest thou meddle to [thy] hurt, that thou shouldest fall, even thou, and Judah with thee?
汝はエドム人を撃破れりと謂ひ心にたかぶりて誇る然ば汝家に安んじ居れ何ぞ禍を惹おこして自己もユダもともに亡びんとするやと
20 But Amaziah would not hear; for it was of God, that he might deliver them into the hand [of their enemies], because they had sought after the gods of Edom.
然るにアマジヤ聽ことをせざりき此事は神より出たる者にて彼らをその敵の手に付さんがためなり是は彼らエドムの神々を求めしに因る
21 So Joash king of Israel went up; and he and Amaziah king of Judah looked one another in the face at Beth-shemesh, which belongeth to Judah.
是においてイスラエルの王ヨアシ上りきたりユダのベテシメシにてユダの王アマジヤと面をあはせたりしが
22 And Judah was put to the worse before Israel; and they fled every man to his tent.
ユダ、イスラエルに撃敗られて各々その天幕に逃かへりぬ
23 And Joash king of Israel took Amaziah king of Judah, the son of Joash the son of Jehoahaz, at Beth-shemesh, and brought him to Jerusalem, and brake down the wall of Jerusalem from the gate of Ephraim unto the corner gate, four hundred cubits.
時にイスラエルの王ヨアシはヱホアハズの子ヨアシの子なるユダの王アマジヤをベテシメシに執へてヱルサレムに携へゆきヱルサレムの石垣をエフライムの門より隅の門まで四百キユビト程を毀ち
24 And [he took] all the gold and silver, and all the vessels that were found in the house of God with Obed-edom, and the treasures of the king’s house, the hostages also, and returned to Samaria.
また神の室の中にてオベデエドムが守り居る一切の金銀および諸の器皿ならびに王の家の財寳を取りかつ人質をとりてサマリアに歸れり
25 And Amaziah the son of Joash king of Judah lived after the death of Joash son of Jehoahaz king of Israel fifteen years.
ユダの王ヨアシの子アマジヤはイスラエルの王ヱホアハズの子ヨアシの死てより後なほ十五年生存らへたり
26 Now the rest of the acts of Amaziah, first and last, behold, are they not written in the book of the kings of Judah and Israel?
アマジヤのその餘の始終の行爲はユダとイスラエルの列王の書に記さるるにあらずや
27 Now from the time that Amaziah did turn away from following the LORD they made a conspiracy against him in Jerusalem; and he fled to Lachish: but they sent after him to Lachish, and slew him there.
アマジヤ翻へりてヱホバに從がはずなりし後ヱルサレムにおいて黨を結びて彼に敵する者ありければ彼ラキシに逃ゆきけるにその人々ラキシに人をやりて彼を其處に殺さしめたり
28 And they brought him upon horses, and buried him with his fathers in the city of Judah.
人衆これを馬に負せてきたりユダの邑にてその先祖等とともにこれを葬りぬ
