< 2 Chronicles 25 >
1 A son of twenty and five years hath Amaziah reigned, and twenty and nine years he hath reigned in Jerusalem, and the name of his mother [is] 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 doth that which is right in the eyes of Jehovah — only, 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 And it cometh to pass, when the kingdom hath been strong upon him, that he slayeth his servants, those smiting 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 and their sons he hath not put to death, but [did] as is written in the law, in the book of Moses, whom Jehovah commanded, saying, 'Fathers do not die for sons, and sons die not for fathers, but each for his own sin they 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 gathereth Judah, and appointeth them, according to the house of the fathers, for heads of the thousands, and for heads of the hundreds, for all Judah and Benjamin; and he inspecteth them from a son of twenty years and upward, and findeth them three hundred thousand chosen ones, going forth to the host, holding spear and target.
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 hireth out of Israel a hundred thousand mighty ones of valour, with 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 and a man of God hath come in unto him, saying, 'O king, the host of Israel doth not go with thee; for Jehovah is not with Israel — all 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 [it], be strong for battle, God doth cause thee to stumble before an enemy, for there is power in God to help, and to cause to stumble.'
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 saith to the man of God, 'And what — to do for the hundred talents that I have given to the troop of Israel?' And the man of God saith, 'Jehovah hath more to give to thee 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 And Amaziah separateth them — for the troop that hath come in unto him from Ephraim to go to their own place, and their anger doth burn mightily against Judah, and they turn back to their place in the 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 hath strengthened himself, and leadeth his people, and goeth to the Valley of Salt, and smiteth 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 ten thousand alive have the sons of Judah taken captive, and they bring them to the top of the rock, and cast them from the top of the rock, and all of them have been broken.
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 And the sons of the troop that Amaziah hath sent back from going with him to battle — they rush against cities of Judah, from Samaria even unto Beth-Horon, and smite of them three thousand, and seize much prey.
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 it cometh to pass, after the coming in of Amaziah from smiting the Edomites, that he bringeth in the gods of the sons of Seir, and establisheth them to him for gods, and before them doth bow himself, and to them he maketh 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 And the anger of Jehovah burneth against Amaziah, and He sendeth unto him a prophet, and he saith unto him, 'Why hast thou sought the gods of the people that have not delivered their 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 cometh to pass, in his speaking unto him, that he saith to him, 'For a counsellor to the king have we appointed thee? cease for thee; why do they smite thee?' And the prophet ceaseth, and saith, 'I have known that God hath counselled to destroy thee, because thou hast done this, and hast not hearkened to 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 And Amaziah king of Judah taketh counsel, and sendeth unto Joash son of Jehoahaz, son of Jehu, king of Israel, saying,
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 'Come, we look one another in the face.' And Joash king of Israel sendeth unto Amaziah king of Judah, saying, 'The thorn that [is] in Lebanon hath sent unto the cedar that [is] in Lebanon, saying, Give thy daughter to my son for a wife; and pass by doth a beast of the field that [is] in Lebanon, and treadeth down the thorn.
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, I have smitten Edom; and thy heart hath lifted thee up to boast; now, abide in thy house, why dost thou stir thyself up in evil, that thou hast fallen, 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 And Amaziah hath not hearkened, for from God it [is] in order to give them into hand, because they have 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 and go up doth Joash king of Israel, and they look one another in the face, he and Amaziah king of Judah, in Beth-Shemesh, that [is] Judah's,
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 is smitten before Israel, and they flee — each to his tents.
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, hath Joash king of Israel caught in Beth-Shemesh, and bringeth him in to Jerusalem, and breaketh down in the wall of Jerusalem from the gate of Ephraim unto the gate of the corner, 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 [taketh] all the gold, and the silver, and all the vessels that are found in the house of God with Obed-Edom, and the treasures of the house of the king, and the sons of the pledges, and turneth back 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, liveth 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 and the rest of the matters of Amaziah, the first and the last, lo, are they not written on the books 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 from the time that Amaziah hath turned aside from after Jehovah — they make a conspiracy against him in Jerusalem, and he fleeth to Lachish, and they send after him to Lachish, and put him to death 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 lift him up on the horses, and bury 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
