< 2 Chronicles 25 >
1 Twenty-five years old, was Amaziah, when he began to reign, and, twenty-nine years, reigned he in Jerusalem, —and, the name of his mother, 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 Yahweh, —only not with a whole 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 And it came to pass, when the kingdom was confirmed unto him, that he slew his servants who had smitten 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, their sons, he put not to death, —but as it is written in the law—in the book of Moses—how that Yahweh commanded, saying-Fathers, shall not die for, sons, and Sons, shall not die, for, fathers, but Each man, for his own sin, shall die.
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 And Amaziah gathered Judah together, and appointed them by their ancestral houses, as rulers of thousands and as rulers of hundreds, for all Judah and Benjamin, —and he numbered them, from twenty years old and upwards, and found them three hundred thousand choice men, able to go forth to war, who could grasp 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 And he hired out of Israel, a hundred thousand heroes of valour, for a 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, a man of God, came unto him, saying, O king! let not the host of Israel come with thee, —for Yahweh is not with Israel, [with] any of the sons 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 art going, do, be strong for the battle, —God will cause thee to fall before the enemy, for there is strength in God, to help or to cause to fall.
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 unto the man of God, What then shall be done as to the hundred talents, which I have given to the company of Israel? Then said the man of God, Yahweh 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 So Amaziah separated them, [appointing] unto the company which had come unto him out of Ephraim, to depart unto their own place, —wherefore their anger was greatly kindled against Judah, so they returned to their own place, in a heat of 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 sons 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 the sons of Judah took captive, ten thousand alive, and brought to the top of the crag, —and cast them down from the top of the crag, and, all of them, were torn asunder.
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, as for the sons of the company which Amaziah sent back from going with him to the war, they spread themselves out against the cities of Judah, from Samaria, even unto Beth-horon, —and smote of them three thousand, and took great plunder.
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 And so it was, after Amaziah came in from smiting the Edomites, that he brought in the gods of the sons of Seir, and set them up for himself, as gods, —and, before them, used he to bow himself down, and, unto them, used he to burn a perfume.
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 Then was kindled the anger of Yahweh, against Amaziah, —and he sent unto him a prophet, and said unto him, Wherefore hast thou sought the gods of the people, which delivered not their own people out of thy 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 spake unto him, that he said to him, To be, counselor to the king, have we appointed thee? forbear thou, wherefore should they smite thee? So 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 counsel, and sent unto Joash, son of Jehoahaz 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 unto Amaziah king of Judah, saying, A thistle that was in Lebanon, sent unto a cedar that was in Lebanon, saying, Come! give thy daughter unto my son to wife, —but there passed by a beast of the field that was in Lebanon, and trampled 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 hast said-Lo! thou hast smitten the Edomites, and thy heart hath lifted thee up to display honour, -Now, abide in thine own house, wherefore shouldst thou engage in strife with Misfortune, and fall, 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 hearkened not, because, from God, it was, to the end he might deliver them up into [their enemies’] hand, —because they had sought 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 came up, and they looked one another in the face, he, and Amaziah king of Judah, —in Beth-shemesh, which belongeth unto 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 Then was Judah defeated, before Israel, —and they fled every man to his own home;
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, Amaziah king of Judah, son of Joash son of Jehoahaz, was taken by Joash king of Israel, in Beth-shemesh, —and he brought him to Jerusalem, and brake down the wall of Jerusalem, from the gate of Ephraim as far as 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, all the gold and the silver and all the utensils that were found in the house of God with Obed-edom, and the treasures of the house of the king, and hostages, he took, -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 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 story of Amaziah, first and last, lo! it is 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 And, after the time that Amaziah turned away from following Yahweh, they made against him a conspiracy 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 on 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
