2 Kings 13
1 After Joash had been ruling Judah for almost 23 years, Jehu’s son Jehoahaz became the king of Israel. He ruled in Samaria [city] for 17 years.
ユダの王アハジアの子ヨアシの二十三年にヱヒウの子ヨハアズ、サマリヤにおいてイスラエルの王となり十七年位にありき
2 He did many things that Yahweh considered to be evil and committed the same kind of sins that Jeroboam had committed, sins which led the people of Israel to sin. He did not stop committing those sins.
彼はヱホバの目の前に惡をなし夫のイスラエルに罪を犯させたるネバテの子ヤラベアムの罪を行ひつづけて之に離れざりき
3 So Yahweh became very angry with the Israeli people, and he allowed the army of King Hazael of Syria and his son Ben-Hadad to defeat the Israelis many times.
是においてヱホバ、イスラエルにむかひて怒を發しこれをその代のあひだ恒にスリアの王ハザエルの手にわたしおき又ハザエルの子ベネハダデの手に付し置たまひしが
4 Then Jehoahaz prayed to Yahweh [for help], and Yahweh heeded him, because he saw that the army of the king of Syria was oppressing the Israelis.
ヨアハズ、ヱホバに請求めたればヱホバつひにこれを聽いれたまへり其はイスラエルの苦難を見そなはしたればなり即ちスリアの王これをなやませるなり
5 Yahweh sent a leader to Israel, who enabled them to be freed from being controlled by Syria. After that, the Israeli people lived peacefully as they had done previously.
ヱホバつひに救者をイスラエルにたまひたればイスラエルの子孫はスリア人の手を脱れて疇昔の如くに己々の天幕に住にいたれり
6 But they still continued to commit the same kind of sins that Jeroboam and his family had committed and which led the Israelis to [also] sin. And the statue of the goddess Asherah remained in Samaria.
但し彼等はイスラエルに罪を犯さしめたるヤラベアムの家の罪をはなれずして之をおこなひつづけたりサマリヤにも亦アシタロテの像たちをりぬ
7 Jehoahaz had only 50 men who rode on horses and ten chariots and 10,000 other soldiers, because the army of Syria had killed all the rest, trampling them like people walk on dirt.
嚮にスリアの王は民を滅し踐くだく塵のごとくに是をなして只騎兵五十人車十輌歩兵一萬人而巳をヨアハズに遺せり
8 [If you want to read about] [RHQ] everything else that Jehoahaz did, you can read about it in the scroll called ‘The History of the Kings of Israel’.
ヨアハズのその餘の行爲とその凡て爲たる事およびその能はイスラエルの王の歴代志の書にしるさるるに非ずや
9 Jehoahaz died [EUP] and was buried in Samaria. Then his son Jehoash became the king.
ヨアハズその先祖等とともに寝りたればこれをサマリヤに葬れりその子ヨアシこれに代て王となる
10 Jehoash, the son of Jehoahaz, started to rule in Israel after King Joash had been ruling in Judah for 23 years. Jehoash ruled in Samaria for 17 years.
ユダの王ヨアシの三十七年にヨアハズの子ヨアシ、サマリヤにおいてイスラエルの王となり十六年位にありき
11 He did many things that Yahweh considered to be evil. He refused to turn away from worshiping idols, which was the sin that [many years earlier King] Jeroboam had told the Israeli people to commit.
彼ヱホバの目の前に惡をなし夫のイスラエルに罪を犯させたるネバテの子ヤラベアムの諸の罪にはなれずしてこれを行ひつづけたり
12 The other things that happened while Jehoash was king and all the things that he did are written in the book called ‘The Account of What the Kings of Israel Did’. In that account they wrote about Jehoash’s [army’s] victories, and their war with [the army of] King Amaziah of Judah.
ヨアシのその餘の行爲とその凡て爲たる事およびそのユダの王アマジヤと戰ひし能はイスラエルの王の歴代志の書に記さるるに非ずや
13 When Jehoash died, he was buried in Samaria where the [other] kings of Israel were buried. Then his son Jeroboam became king.
ヨアシその先祖等とともに寝りてヤラベアム位にのぼれりヨアシはイスラエルの王等とおなじくサマリヤに葬らる
14 Elisha became very ill. Just before he died, King Jehoash went to Elisha and cried in front of him. [Saying the same words that Elisha had said when Elijah was taken to heaven], he said, “My father/master! My father/master! The chariots of us Israeli people and their drivers [are taking my master away]!”
茲にエリシヤ死病にかかりて疾をりしかばイスラエルの王ヨアシ彼の許にくだり來てその面の上に涙をこぼし吾父吾父イスラエルの兵車よその騎兵よと言り
15 Elisha said to him, “Bring to me a bow and some arrows!” So the king did that.
エリシヤかれにむかひ弓矢をとれと言ければすなはち弓矢をとれり
16 Then Elisha told the king to put his hands on the bow [and prepare to shoot some arrows]. And then Elisha put his own hands on the king’s hands.
エリシヤまたイスラエルの王に汝の手を弓にかけよと言ければすなはちその手をかけたり是においてエリシヤその手を王の手の上に按て
17 Then Elisha told him, “[Have someone] open that window toward the east.” So they opened it. Then Elisha said, “Shoot!” So the king did. Then Elisha said, “That is the arrow that [indicates that your army] will defeat the Syrian army. Your army will completely defeat their [army] at Aphek [town].”
東向の窓を開けと言たれば之を開きけるにエリシヤまた射よと言り彼すなはち射たればエリシヤ言ふヱホバよりの拯救の矢スリアに對する拯救の矢汝必らずアベクにおいてスリア人を撃やぶりてこれを滅しつくすにいたらん
18 Then Elisha said, “Pick up the other arrows and strike the ground with them!” So the king picked up the arrows and struck the ground three times.
エリシヤまた矢を取れと言ければ取りエリシヤまたイスラエルの王に地を射よといひけるに三次射て止たれば
19 But Elisha was angry with him. He exclaimed, “You should have struck the ground five or six times! If you had done that, your army would have defeated the Syrian [army] until they were completely wiped out! But now, [because you struck the ground only three times, ] your army will defeat them only three times!”
神の人怒て言ふ汝は五回も六回も射るべかりしなり然せしならば汝スリアを撃やぶりて之を滅しつくすことを得ん然ど今然せざれば汝がスリアを撃やぶることは三次のみなるべしと
20 Then Elisha died and was buried. Groups of raiders from Moab came to Israel each year during (spring/the time when the cold season was ending).
エリシヤ終に死たればこれを葬りしが年の立かへるに及てモアブの賊黨國にいりきたれり
21 One year, when some Israeli people were burying a man’s body, they saw a group of those raiders. [They were afraid, ] so quickly they threw that man’s body into the tomb where Elisha [had been buried, and they ran away]. But as soon as the man’s body touched Elisha’s bones, the dead man became alive again and jumped up!
時に一箇の人を葬らんとする者ありしが賊黨を見たればその人をエリシヤの墓におしいれけるにその人いりてエリシヤの骨にふるるや生かへりて起あがれり
22 King Hazael of Syria [sent soldiers to] oppress the Israeli people all during the years that Jehoahaz [ruled Judah].
スリアの王ハザエルはヨアハズの一生の間イスラエルをなやましたりしが
23 But Yahweh was very kind [DOU] to the Israeli people. He helped them because of the agreement that he had made with [their ancestors] Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob. He did not get rid of the Israelis, and he still has not rejected them.
ヱホバそのアブラハム、イサク、ヤコブと契約をむすびしがためにイスラエルをめぐみ之を憐みこれを眷みたまひ之を滅すことを好まず尚これをその前より棄はなちたまはざりき
24 When Hazael the king of Syria died, his son Ben-Hadad became the king.
スリアの王ハザエルつひに死てその子ベネハダデこれに代りて王となれり
25 [The army of] King Jehoash of Israel defeated [the army of] King Ben-Hadad three times, and recaptured the cities that Ben-Hadad’s army had captured during the time that Jehoash’s father Jehoahaz was ruling Israel.
是においてヨアズの子ヨアシはその父ヨアハズがハザエルに攻取れたる邑々をハザエルの子ベネハダデの手より取かへせり即ちヨアシは三次かれを敗りてイスラエルの邑々を取かへしぬ
