2 Chronicles 29
1 And, Hezekiah, began to reign when he was twenty-five years old, and, twenty-nine years, reigned he in Jerusalem, —and, the name of his mother, was Abijah, daughter of Zechariah.
ヒゼキ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ゼカリヤの女にして名をアビヤといふ
2 And he did that which was right in the eyes of Yahweh, —according to all that, David his father, had done.
ヒゼキヤはその父ダビデの凡てなしたる如くヱホバの目に善と視たまふ事をなせり
3 He, in the first year of his reign, in the first month, opened the doors of the house of Yahweh, and repaired them.
即ち彼その治世の第一年一月にヱホバの室の戸を開きかつ之を修繕ひ
4 And he brought in the priests, and the Levites, —and gathered them together in the broadway on the east;
祭司およびレビ人を携さへいりて東の廣場にこれを集め
5 and said unto them, Hear me, O Levites! Now, hallow yourselves, and hallow the house of Yahweh, God of your fathers, and take forth the impure thing out of the holy place.
而して之にいひけるはレビ人よ我に聽け汝等いま身を潔めて汝等の先祖の神ヱホバの室を潔め汚穢を聖所より除きされ
6 For our fathers have acted unfaithfully and done the thing that was wicked in the eyes of Yahweh our God, and have forsaken him, -and have turned round their faces from the habitation of Yahweh, and have offered their backs.
夫我らの先祖は罪を犯し我らの神ヱホバの目に惡しと見たまふことを行ひてヱホバを棄てヱホバの住所に面を背けて後をこれに向け
7 Moreover they have shut up the doors of the porch, and have quenched the lamps, and, incense, have they not burned, -and, ascending-sacrifice, have they not caused to go up in the holy place, unto the God of Israel.
また廊の戸を閉ぢ燈火を消し聖所にてイスラエルの神に香を焚ず燔祭を献けざりし
8 Thus hath it come to pass, that, the wrath of Yahweh, hath been upon Judah and Jerusalem, —and he hath delivered them up as a terror and as an astonishment and as hissing, even as, ye, can see with your own eyes.
是をもてヱホバの忿怒ユダとヱルサレムに臨みヱホバ彼等をして打ただよはされしめ詑異とならしめ胡盧とならしめたまへり汝らが目に覩るごとし
9 And lo! our fathers have fallen by the sword, and, our sons and our daughters and our wives, are in captivity for this.
即ち我儕の父は劍に斃れ我らの男子女子及び妻等はこれがために俘擄となれり
10 Now, is it near my heart, to solemnise a covenant unto Yahweh, God of Israel, —that he may turn from him the glow of his anger.
今我イスラエルの神ヱホバと契約を結ばんとする意志ありその烈しき怒我らを離るることあらん
11 My sons! now, do not be faulty, —for, of you, hath Yahweh made choice, to stand before him, and to wait upon him, and to be his attendants and burners of incense.
我子等よ今は怠たる勿れヱホバ汝らを擇びて己の前に立て事へしめ己に事ふる者となし香を焚く者となしたまひたればなりと
12 Then arose the Levites—Mahath son of Amasai, and Joel son of Azariah, of the sons of the Kohathites, and, of the sons of Merari, Kish son of Abdi, and Azariah son of Jehallelel, —and, of the Gershonites, Joah son of Zimmah, and Eden son of Joah;
是においてレビ人起り即ちコハテの子孫の中にてはアマサイの子マハテおよびアザリヤの子ヨエル、メラリの子孫の中にてはアブデの子キシおよびヱハレレルの子アザリヤ、ゲルシヨン人の中にてはジンマの子ヨアおよびヨアの子エデン
13 and, of the sons of Elizaphan, Shimri and Jeiel, —and, of the sons of Asaph, Zechariah, and Mattaniah;
エリザパンの子孫の中にてはシムリおよびヱイエル、アサフの子孫の中にてはゼカリヤおよびマツタニヤ
14 and, of the sons of Heman, Jehiel and Shimei, —and, of the sons of Jeduthun, Shemaiah, and Uzziel;
ヘマンの子孫の中にてはヱヒエルおよびシメイ、ヱドトンの子孫の中にてはシマヤおよびウジエル
15 and they gathered together their brethren, who hallowed themselves, and came in according to the command of the king, in the things of Yahweh, —to purify the house of Yahweh.
かれらその兄弟を集へて身を潔めヱホバの言に依りて王の傳へし命令にしたがひてヱホバの室を潔めんとて入きたり
16 So the priests entered into the inner part of the house of Yahweh, to make purification, and they brought out every unclean thing which they found in the temple of Yahweh, into the court of the house of Yahweh, —where the Levites received it, to carry it forth to the Kidron ravine outside.
祭司等ヱホバの室の奧に入りてこれを潔めヱホバの殿にありし汚穢をことごとくヱホバの室の庭に携へいだせばレビ人それを受て外にいだしキデロン河に持いたる
17 And they began, on the first of the first month, to hallow, —and, on the eighth day of the month, they came to the porch of Yahweh, so they hallowed the house of Yahweh in eight days, —and, on the sixteenth day of the first month, they finished.
彼ら正月の元日に潔むることを始めてその月の八日にヱホバの廊におよびまたヱホバの家を潔むるに八日を費し正月の十六日にいたりて之を終れり
18 Then came they in unto Hezekiah the king, and said, We have purified all the house of Yahweh, —the altar of ascending-sacrifice, and all the utensils thereof, and the table for setting in array, and all the utensils thereof.
かくて彼らヒゼキヤ王の處に入て言ふ我らヱホバの室をことごとく潔めまた燔祭の壇とその一切の器具および供前のパンの案とその一切の器皿とを潔めたり
19 And, all the utensils which King Ahaz in his reign rejected when he acted unfaithfully, have we made ready and hallowed, —and, there they are, before the altar of Yahweh.
またアハズ王がその治世に罪を犯して棄たりし一切の器皿をも整へてこれを潔めヱホバの壇の前にこれを据置りと
20 So Hezekiah the king rose up early, and gathered together the rulers of the city, —and went up to the house of Yahweh.
是においてヒゼキヤ王蚤に起いで邑の牧伯等をあつめてヱホバの家にのぼり往き
21 And they brought in seven bullocks, and seven rams, and seven young sheep, and seven he-goats for bearing sin, for the kingdom and for the sanctuary and for Judah, —and he bade the sons of Aaron, the priests, cause them to ascend upon the altar of Yahweh.
牡牛七匹牡羊七匹羔羊七匹牡山羊七匹を牽きたらしめ國と聖所とユダのためにこれを罪祭となしアロンの子孫たる祭司等に命じてこれをヱホバの壇の上に献げしむ
22 So they slaughtered the bullocks, and the priests received the blood, and dashed it against the altar, —and they slaughtered the rams, and dashed the blood against the altar, and slaughtered the young sheep, and dashed the blood against the altar.
即ち牡牛を宰れば祭司等その血を受て壇に灑ぎまた牡羊を宰ればその血を壇に灑ぎまた羔羊を宰ればその血を壇に灑げり
23 And they brought near the he-goats for bearing sin, before the king, and the convocation, —and they leaned their hands upon them;
かくて人々罪祭の牡山羊を王と會衆の前に牽きたりければ彼らその上に手を按り
24 and the priests slaughtered them, and sin-cleansed, with their blood, the altar, to put a propitiatory-covering over all Israel, -because, for all Israel, did the king appoint the ascending-sacrifice and the offering for bearing sin.
而して祭司これを宰りその血を罪祭として壇の上に献げてイスラエル全國のために贖罪をなせり是は王イスラエル全國の爲に燔祭および罪祭を献ぐることを命じたるに因る
25 And he caused the Levites to stand in the house of Yahweh, with cymbals and with harps and with lyres, by the commandment of David, and of Gad the seer of the king, and of Nathan the prophet, —for, by the hand of Yahweh, came the commandment by the hand of his prophets.
王レビ人をヱホバの室に置きダビデおよび王の先見者ガデと預言者ナタンの命令にしたがひて之に鐃鈸瑟および琴を執しむ是はヱホバがその預言者によりて命じたまひし所なり
26 So the Levites took their stand, with the instruments of David, and the priests, with the trumpets.
是においてレビ人はダビデの樂器をとり祭司は喇叭をとりて立つ
27 And Hezekiah gave word, to cause the ascending-sacrifice to go up on the altar, —and, when the ascending-sacrifice began, the singing unto Yahweh began, and the trumpets, even under the direction of the instruments of David, king of Israel.
時にヒゼキヤ燔祭を壇の上に献ぐることを命ぜり燔祭をささげ始むるときヱホバの歌をうたひ喇叭を吹きイスラエルの王ダビデの樂器をならしはじめたり
28 And, all the convocation, were bowing themselves in prostration, and, the song, was resounding and the trumpets were blowing, -the whole, until the completing of the ascending-sacrifice.
しかして會衆みな禮拝をなし謳歌者歌をうたひ喇叭手喇叭を吹ならし燔祭の終るまで凡て斯ありしが
29 And, when the offering was complete, the king knelt down and all who were present with him, and bowed themselves in prostration.
献ぐる事の終るにおよびて王および之と偕に在る者皆身をかがめて禮拝をなせり
30 And Hezekiah the king and the rulers gave word to the Levites, to offer praise unto Yahweh, in the words of David, and of Asaph the seer, —so they offered praise right joyfully, and bent their heads and bowed themselves in prostration.
かくて又ヒゼキヤ王および牧伯等レビ人に命じダビデと先見者アサフの詞をもてヱホバを讃美せしむ彼等喜樂をもて讃美し首をさげて禮拝す
31 Then responded Hezekiah and said—Now, have ye consecrated yourselves unto Yahweh. Draw near, and bring in sacrifices and thank-offerings unto the house of Yahweh, -So the convocation brought sacrifices and thank-offerings, and, everyone of a willing heart, [brought] ascending-sacrifices.
時にヒゼキヤこたへて言けるは汝らすでにヱホバに事へんために身を潔めたれば進みよりてヱホバの室に犠牲および感謝祭を携へきたれと會衆すなはち犠牲および感謝祭を携へきたる又志ある者はみな燔祭を携ふ
32 And it came to pass that, the number of ascending-sacrifices which the convocation brought, was—seventy bullocks, and a hundred rams, and two hundred young sheep, —as an ascending-sacrifice unto Yahweh, all these.
會衆の携へきたりし燔祭の數は牡牛七十牡羊一百羔羊二百是みなヱホバに燔祭として奉つる者なり
33 But, the hallowed beasts, were six hundred bullocks, and three thousand sheep.
また奉納物は牛六百羊三千なりき
34 Only, the priests, were too few, and were unable to flay all the ascending-sacrifices, —so their brethren the Levites strengthened them, until the work was complete and until the priests had hallowed themselves, for, the Levites, were more upright in heart to hallow themselves, than the priests.
然るに祭司寡くしてその燔祭の物の皮を剥つくすこと能はざりければその兄弟たるレビ人これを助けてその工を終ふ斯る間に他の祭司等も身を潔むレビ人は祭司よりも心正しくして身を潔めたり
35 Moreover also, the ascending-sacrifices, were in abundance, with the fat portions of the peace-offerings, and with the drink-offerings to every ascending-sacrifice, -thus was established the service of the house of Yahweh.
燔祭夥多しくあり酬恩祭の脂及びすべての燔祭の酒も然り斯ヱホバの室の奉事備はれり
36 And Hezekiah rejoiced, and all the people, because God had established it for the people, —for, suddenly, had the thing come about.
この事俄なりしかども神かく民の爲に備をなしたまひしに因てヒゼキヤおよび一切の民喜べり
