< 2 Kings 1 >

1 And Moab transgresseth against Israel after the death of Ahab,
アハブの死しのちモアブ、イスラエルにそむけり
2 and Ahaziah falleth through the lattice in his upper chamber that [is] in Samaria, and is sick, and sendeth messengers, and saith unto them, 'Go ye, inquire of Baal-Zebub god of Ekron if I recover from this sickness.'
アハジヤ、サマリヤにあるその樓の欄杆よりおちて病をおこせしかば使を遣さんとして之にいひけるは往てエクロンの神バアルゼブブにわがこの病の愈るや否を問べしと
3 And a messenger of Jehovah hath spoken unto Elijah the Tishbite, 'Rise, go up to meet the messengers of the king of Samaria, and speak unto them, Is it because there is not a God in Israel — ye are going to inquire of Baal Zebub god of Ekron?
時にヱホバの使テシベ人エリヤにいひけるは起てサマリヤ王の使にあひて之に言べし汝等がエクロンの神バアルゼブブに問んとてゆくはイスラエルに神なきがゆゑなるか
4 and therefore, thus said Jehovah, The bed whither thou hast gone up, thou dost not come down from it, for thou dost certainly die;' and Elijah goeth on.
是によりてヱホバかくいふ汝はその登りし牀より下ることなかるべし汝かならず死んとエリヤ乃ち往り
5 And the messengers turn back unto him, and he saith unto them, 'What [is] this — ye have turned back!'
使者たちアハジアに返りければアハジア彼等に何故に返りしやといふに
6 And they say unto him, 'A man hath come up to meet us, and saith unto us, Go, turn back unto the king who sent you, and ye have said unto him, Thus said Jehovah, Is it because there is not a God in Israel — thou art sending to inquire of Baal-Zebub god of Ekron? therefore, the bed whither thou hast gone up, thou dost not come down from it, for thou dost certainly die.'
かれら之にいひけるは一箇の人上りきたりて我らに會ひわれらにいひけるは往てなんぢらを遣はせし王の所にかへり之にいふべしヱホバ斯いひたまふなんぢエクロンの神バアルゼブブに問んとて人を遣すはイスラエルに神なきがゆゑなるか然ば汝その登りし牀より下ることなかるべし汝かならず死んと
7 And he saith unto them, 'What [is] the fashion of the man who hath come up to meet you, and speaketh unto you these words?'
アハジア彼等にいひけるはそののぼりきたりて汝等に會ひ此等の言を汝らに告たる人の形状は如何なりしや
8 And they say unto him, 'A man — hairy, and a girdle of skin girt about his loins;' and he saith, 'He [is] Elijah the Tishbite.'
かれら對へていひけるはそれは毛深き人にして腰に革の帶をむすび居たり彼いひけるはその人はテシベ人エリヤなりと
9 And he sendeth unto him a head of fifty and his fifty, and he goeth up unto him (and lo, he is sitting on the top of the hill), and he speaketh unto him, 'O man of God, the king hath spoken, Come down.'
是に於て王五十人の長とその五十人をエリヤの所に遣はせり彼エリヤの所に上りゆくに視よエリヤは山の嶺に坐し居たりかれエリヤにいひけるは神の人よ王いひたまふ下るべし
10 And Elijah answereth and speaketh unto the head of the fifty, 'And if I [am] a man of God, fire doth come down from the heavens, and consume thee and thy fifty;' and fire cometh down from the heavens, and consumeth him and his fifty.
エリヤこたへて五十人の長にいひけるはわれもし神の人たらば火天より降りて汝と汝の五十人とを燒盡すべしと火すなはち天より降りて彼とその五十人とを燒盡せり
11 And he turneth and sendeth unto him another head of fifty and his fifty, and he answereth and speaketh unto him, 'O man of God, thus said the king, Haste, come down.'
アハジアまた他の五十人の長とその五十人をエリヤに遣せりかれ上りてエリヤにいひけるは神の人よ王かく言たまふ速かに下るべし
12 And Elijah answereth and speaketh unto them, 'If I [am] a man of God, fire doth come down from the heavens, and consume thee and thy fifty;' and fire of God cometh down from the heavens, and consumeth him and his fifty.
エリヤ答て彼にいひけるはわれもし神の人たらば火天より降りて爾となんぢの五十人を燒盡すべしと神の火すなはち天より降りてかれとその五十人を燒盡せり
13 And he turneth and sendeth a third head of fifty and his fifty, and the third head of fifty goeth up, and cometh in, and boweth on his knees over-against Elijah, and maketh supplication unto him, and speaketh unto him, 'O man of God, let be precious, I pray thee, my soul and the soul of thy servants — these fifty — in thine eyes.
かれまた第三の五十人の長とその五十人を遣せり第三の五十人の長のぼりいたりてエリヤのまへに跪きこれに願ひていひけるは神の人よ願くはわが生命となんぢの僕なるこの五十人の生命をなんぢの目に貴重き者と見なしたまへ
14 Lo, come down hath fire from the heavens, and consumeth the two heads of the former fifties and their fifties; and, now, let my soul be precious in thine eyes.'
視よ火天より降りて前の五十人の長二人とその五十人を燒盡せり然どわが生命をば汝の目に貴重き者となしたまへ
15 And a messenger of Jehovah speaketh unto Elijah, 'Go down with him, be not afraid of him;' and he riseth and goeth down with him unto the king,
時にヱホバの使エリヤに云けるはかれとともに下れかれをおそるることなかれとエリヤすなはち起てかれとともに下り王の許に至り
16 and speaketh unto him, 'Thus said Jehovah, Because that thou hast sent messengers to inquire of Baal-Zebub god of Ekron — is it because there is not a God in Israel to inquire of His word? therefore, the bed whither thou hast gone up — thou dost not come down from it, for thou dost certainly die.'
之にいひけるはヱホバかくいひたまふ汝エクロンの神バアルゼブブに問んとて使者を遣るはイスラエルにその言を問ふべき神なきがゆゑなるか是によりて汝はその登し牀より下ることなかるべし汝かならず死んと
17 And he dieth, according to the word of Jehovah that Elijah spake, and Jehoram reigneth in his stead, in the second year of Jehoram son of Jehoshaphat king of Judah, for he had no son.
彼エリヤの言たるヱホバの言の如く死けるが彼に子なかりしかばヨラムこれに代りて王となれり是はユダの王ヨシヤパテの子ヨラムの二年にあたる
18 And the rest of the matters of Ahaziah that he did, are they not written on the book of the Chronicles of the kings of Israel?
アハジヤのなしたる其餘の事業はイスラエルの王の歴代志の書に記載さるるにあらずや
