1 Kings 14
1 At that time, Jeroboam’s son Abijah became very sick.
當時ヤラベアムの子アビヤ疾ゐたり
2 Jeroboam said to his wife, “Disguise yourself, in order that no one will recognize that you are my wife. Then go to Shiloh [city], where the prophet Ahijah [lives]. He is the one who predicted/prophesied that I would become the king of Israel.
ヤラベアム其妻に言けるは請ふ起て装を改へ人をして汝がヤラベアムの妻なるを知しめずしてシロに往け彼處にわが此民の王となるべきを我に告たる預言者アヒヤをる
3 Take with you ten [loaves of] bread and some small flat cakes, and a jar of honey, [and give them] to him. [Tell him about] our son, [and] he will tell you what will happen to him.”
汝の手に十のパン及び菓子と一瓶の蜜を取て彼の所に往け彼汝に此子の如何になるかを示すべしと
4 So his wife went to Shiloh, to Ahijah’s house. Ahijah was unable to see, because he was very old and had become blind.
ヤラベアムの妻是爲し起てシロに往きアヒヤの家に至りしがアヒヤは年齢のために其目凝て見ることを得ざりき
5 But [before she got there, ] Yahweh told Ahijah that Jeroboam’s wife was coming to inquire about their son, who was very sick. And Yahweh told Ahijah what he should tell her. When she came to him, she pretended to be another woman.
ヱホバ、アヒヤにいひたまひけるは視よヤラベアムの妻其子疾るに因て其に付て汝に一の事を諮んとて來る汝斯々彼に言べし其は彼入り來る時其身を他の人とすべければなり
6 But when Ahijah heard her footsteps as she entered the doorway, he said to her, “Come in, wife of Jeroboam! (Why do you pretend that you are someone else?/It will not help you to pretend that you are someone else.) [RHQ] [Yahweh] has given me bad news to tell you.
彼が戸の所に入來れる時アヒヤ其履聲を聞て言けるはヤラベアムの妻入よ汝何ぞ其身を他の人とするや我汝に嚴酷き事を告るを命ぜらる
7 Go and tell Jeroboam that this is what Yahweh, the God whom we Israelis [worship], says to you: ‘I chose you from among the common people and enabled you to become the king of my Israeli people.
往てヤラベアムに告べしイスラエルの神ヱホバ斯言たまふ我汝を民の中より擧げ我民イスラエルの上に汝を君となし
8 I took [most of] the kingdom of Israel away from David’s descendants and gave it to you. But you have not been like David, who served me [very well]. He obeyed all my commandments very sincerely, doing only things that I considered to be right.
國をダビデの家より裂き離して之を汝に與へたるに汝は我僕ダビデの我が命令を守りて一心に我に從ひ唯わが目に適ふ事のみを爲しが如くならずして
9 But you have done more evil things/deeds than all those [who ruled] before you. You have rejected me, and you have caused me to become very angry by making metal images of other gods so that you [and others] could worship them.
汝の前に在し凡の者よりも惡を爲し往て汝のために他の神と鋳たる像を造り我が怒を激し我を汝の背後に棄たり
10 ‘So, I am going to cause terrible things to happen to your family. I will cause all your male descendants to die, young ones and old ones. I will completely get rid of your family [MTY]. I will get rid of your family [MTY] just like a man completely burns dung [to cook his food].
是故に視よ我ヤラベアムの家に災害を下しヤラベアムに屬する男はイスラエルにありて繋がれたる者も繋がれざる者も盡く絶ち人の塵埃を殘りなく除くがごとくヤラベアムの家の後を除くべし
11 [The corpses of] any members of your family who die in cities will be eaten by dogs. And [the corpses of] any members of your family who die in the open fields will be eaten by vultures. [This will surely happen because] I, Yahweh, have said [that it will happen].’
ヤラベアムに屬する者の邑に死るをば犬之を食ひ野に死ぬるをば天空の鳥之を食はんヱホバ之を語たまへばなり
12 So go back home. And as soon as you enter the city, your son will die.
爾起て爾の家に往け爾の足の邑に入る時子は死ぬべし
13 All the Israeli people will mourn for him and bury him. He is the only one of Jeroboam’s family who will be buried [properly], because he is the only one of Jeroboam’s family with whom Yahweh is pleased.
而してイスラエル皆彼のために哀みて彼を葬らんヤラベアムに屬する者は唯是のみ墓に入るべし其はヤラベアムの家の中にて彼はイスラエルの神ヱホバに向ひて善き意を懐けばなり
14 Furthermore, Yahweh will appoint for himself a king to rule over Israel who will get rid of Jeroboam’s descendants. And that [will start to happen] today!
ヱホバ、イスラエル上に一人の王を興さん彼其日にヤラベアムの家を斷絶べし但し何れの時なるか今即ち是なり
15 Yahweh will punish the people of Israel; he will shake them like [the wind] shakes the reeds [that grow in] a stream. He will expel the Israeli people from this good land that he gave to our ancestors. He will scatter them into countries east of [the Euphrates] River, because they have caused him to become very angry by [worshiping statues of] the goddess Asherah.
又ヱホバ、イスラエルを撃て水に搖撼ぐ葦の如くになしたまひイスラエルを其父祖に賜ひし此善地より抜き去りて之を河の外に散したまはん彼等其アシラ像を造りてヱホバの怒を激したればなり
16 Yahweh will abandon the Israeli people because of the sins that Jeroboam committed, sins which led the Israeli people to commit them.”
ヱホバ、ヤラベアムの罪の爲にイスラエルを棄たまふべし彼は罪を犯し又イスラエルに罪を犯さしめたりと
17 Jeroboam’s wife returned home to Tirzah [city, the new capital of Israel]. And just as she entered her house, her son died.
ヤラベアムの妻起て去テルザに至りて家の閾に臻れる時子は死り
18 All the Israeli people mourned for him and buried him, which is what Yahweh had told his servant, the prophet Ahijah, would happen.
イスラエル皆彼を葬り彼の爲に哀めりヱホバの其僕預言者アヒヤによりて言たまへる言の如し
19 Everything else that Jeroboam did, and the record of wars that his [army] fought, and how he ruled, is written in the scroll called ‘The History of the Kings of Israel’.
ヤラベアムの其餘の行爲彼が如何に戰ひしか如何に世を治めしかは視よイスラエルの王の歴代志の書に記載る
20 Jeroboam ruled for 22 years; then he died [EUP] and his son Nadab became king.
ヤラベアムの王たりし日は二十二年なりき彼其父祖と偕に寝りて其子ナダブ之に代りて王となれり
21 Solomon’s son Rehoboam ruled Judah. He was 41 years old when he started to rule, and he ruled for 17 years. He ruled in Jerusalem, which is the city that Yahweh chose out of all the tribes of Israel to be the place where he should be worshiped [MTY]. Rehoboam’s mother’s name was Naamah; she was from the Ammon people-group.
ソロモンの子レハベアムはユダに王たりきレハベアムは王と成る時四十一歳なりしがヱホバの其名を置んとてイスラエルの諸の支派の中より選みたまひし邑なるエルサレムにて十七年王たりき其母の名はナアマといひてアンモニ人なり
22 The people of Judah did things that Yahweh considered to be evil. They caused him to become angry because they committed more sins than their ancestors had committed: They worshiped many other gods instead of worshiping only Yahweh.
ユダ其父祖の爲たる諸の事に超てヱホバの目の前に惡を爲し其犯したる罪に由てヱホバの震怒を激せり
23 They built places to worship those gods; on high hills, and under big trees they set up [stone] pillars to worship the goddess Asherah.
其は彼等も諸の高山の上と諸の靑木の下に崇邱と碑とアシラ像を建たればなり
24 Also, there were male prostitutes at these places of worship. The Israeli people did the same disgraceful things that had been done by the people whom Yahweh had expelled while the Israelis were advancing through the land.
其國には亦男色を行ふ者ありぎ彼等はヱホバがイスラエルの子孫の前より逐攘ひたまひし國民の中にありし諸の憎むべき事を傚ひ行へり
25 When Rehoboam had been ruling for almost five years, King Shishak of Egypt came [with his army] to attack Jerusalem.
レハベアム王の第五年にエジプトの王シシヤク、エルサレムに攻上り
26 They took away all the valuable things in the temple and in the king’s palace, including the gold shields that Solomon’s [workers] had made.
ヱホバの家の寶物と王の家の寶物を奪ひたり即ち盡く之を奪ひ亦ソロモンの造りたる金の楯を皆奪ひたり
27 King Rehoboam’s [workers] made bronze shields to replace them and entrusted them to officers who guarded the entrance to the king’s palace.
レハベアム王其代に銅の楯を造りて王の家の門を守る侍衛の長の手に付せり
28 Every time that the king went into the temple, those guards carried those shields; and [when he left the temple] they returned the shields to the storeroom.
王のヱホバの家に入る毎に侍衛之を負ひ復之を侍衛の房に携歸れり
29 Everything else that Rehoboam did is written [RHQ] in the scroll called ‘The History of the Kings of Judah’.
レハベアムの其餘の行爲と其凡て爲たる事はユダの王の歴代志の書に記さるるに非ずや
30 There were wars continually between [the armies of] Rehoboam and Jeroboam.
レハベアムとヤラベアムの間に戰爭ありき
31 Then Rehoboam died [EUP], and he was buried in [the part of Jerusalem called] ‘The City of David’, where his ancestors were buried. Then his son Abijah became the king.
レハベアム其父祖と偕に寝りて其父祖と共にダビデの城に葬らる其母のナアマといひてアンモニ人なり其子アビヤム之に代りて王と爲り
