2 Kings 18
1 And it cometh to pass, in the third year of Hoshea son of Elah king of Israel, reigned hath Hezekiah son of Ahaz king of Judah;
イスラエルの王エラの子ホセアの三年にユダの王アハズの子ヒゼキア王となれり
2 a son of twenty and five years was he in his reigning, and twenty and nine years he hath reigned in Jerusalem, and the name of his mother [is] Abi daughter of Zechariah.
彼は王となれる時二十五歳にしてエルサレムにて二十九年世ををさめたりその母はザカリヤの女にして名をアビといへり
3 And he doth that which [is] right in the eyes of Jehovah, according to all that David his father did,
ヒゼキヤはその父ダビデの凡てなせしごとくヱホバの善と見たまふ事をなし
4 he hath turned aside the high places, and broken in pieces the standing-pillars, and cut down the shrine, and beaten down the brazen serpent that Moses made, for unto these days were the sons of Israel making perfume to it, and he calleth it 'a piece of brass.'
崇邱を除き偶像を毀ちアシラ像を斫たふしモーセの造りし銅の蛇を打碎けりこの時までイスラエルの子孫その蛇にむかひて香を焚たればなり人々これをネホシタン(銅物)と稱なせり
5 In Jehovah, God of Israel, he hath trusted, and after him there hath not been like him among all the kings of Judah, nor [among any] who were before him;
ヒゼキヤはイスラエルの神ヱホバを賴り是をもて彼の後にも彼の先にもユダの諸の王等の中に彼に如ものなかりき
6 and he cleaveth to Jehovah, he hath not turned aside from after Him, and keepeth His commands that Jehovah commanded Moses.
即ち彼は固くヱホバに身をよせてこれに從ふことをやめずヱホバがモーセに命じたまひしその誡命を守れり
7 And Jehovah hath been with him, in every place where he goeth out he acteth wisely, and he rebelleth against the king of Asshur, and hath not served him;
ヱホバ彼とともに在したれば彼はその往ところにて凡て利達を得たり彼はアッスリヤの王に叛きてこれに事へざりき
8 he hath smitten the Philistines unto Gaza, and its borders, from a tower of watchers unto the fenced city.
彼ペリシテ人を撃敗りてガザにいたりその境に達し看守臺より城にまで及べり
9 And it cometh to pass, in the fourth year of king Hezekiah — it [is] the seventh year of Hoshea son of Elah king of Israel — come up hath Shalmaneser king of Asshur against Samaria, and layeth siege to it,
ヒゼキヤ王の四年すなはちイスラエルの王エラの子ホセアの七年にアッスリヤの王シヤルマネセル、サマリヤに攻のぼりてこれを圍みけるが
10 and they capture it at the end of three years; in the sixth year of Hezekiah — it [is] the ninth year of Hoshea king of Israel — hath Samaria been captureth,
三年の後つひに之を取りサマリヤの取れしはヒゼキヤの六年にしてイスラエルの王ホセアの九年にあたる
11 and the king of Asshur removeth Israel to Asshur, and placed them in Halah, and in Habor [by] the river Gozan, and [in] cities of the Medes,
アッスリヤの王イスラエルをアッスリヤに擄へゆきてこれをハラとゴザン河の邊とメデアの邑々におきぬ
12 because that they have not hearkened to the voice of Jehovah their God, and transgress His covenant — all that He commanded Moses, servant of Jehovah — yea, they have not hearkened nor done [it].
是は彼等その神ヱホバの言に遵はずその契約を破りヱホバの僕モーセが凡て命じたる事をやぶりこれを聽ことも行ふこともせざるによりてなり
13 And in the fourteenth year of king Hezekiah hath Sennacherib king of Asshur come up against all the fenced cities of Judah, and seizeth them,
ヒゼキヤ王の十四年にアッスリヤの王セナケリブ攻のぼりてユダの諸の堅き邑を取ければ
14 and Hezekiah king of Judah sendeth unto the king of Asshur to Lachish, saying, 'I have sinned, turn back from off me; that which thou puttest on me I bear;' and the king of Asshur layeth on Hezekiah king of Judah three hundred talents of silver, and thirty talents of gold,
ユダの王ヒゼキヤ人をラキシにつかはしてアッスリヤの王にいたらしめて言ふ我過てり我を離れて歸りたまへ汝が我に蒙らしむる者は我これを爲べしとアッスリヤの王すなはち銀三百タラント金三十タラントをユダの王ヒゼキヤに課したり
15 and Hezekiah giveth all the silver that is found in the house of Jehovah, and in the treasures of the house of the king;
是においてヒゼキヤ、ヱホバの家と王の家の庫とにあるところの銀をことごとく彼に與へたり
16 at that time hath Hezekiah cut off the doors of the temple of Jehovah, and the pillars that Hezekiah king of Judah had overlaid, and giveth them to the king of Asshur.
此時ユダの王ヒゼキヤまた己が金を著たりしヱホバの宮の戸および柱を剥てこれをアッスリヤの王に與へたり
17 And the king of Asshur sendeth Tartan, and the chief of the eunuchs, and the chief of the butlers, from Lachish, unto king Hezekiah, with a heavy force, to Jerusalem, and they go up and come in to Jerusalem, and they go up, and come in and stand by the conduit of the upper pool that [is] in the highway of the fuller's field.
アッスリヤの王またタルタン、ラブサリスおよびラブシヤケをしてラキシより大軍をひきゐてエルサレムにむかひてヒゼキヤ王の所にいたらしめたればすなはち上りてエルサレムにきたれり彼等則ち上り來り漂布場の大路に沿るよの池塘の水道の邊にいたりて立り
18 And they call unto the king, and go out unto them doth Eliakim son of Hilkiah, who [is] over the house, and Shebna the scribe, and Joah son of Asaph the remembrancer.
而して彼等王を呼たればヒルキヤの子なる宮内卿エリアキム書記官セブナおよびアサフの子なる史官ヨア出きたりて彼等に詣りけるに
19 And the chief of the butlers saith unto them, 'Say, I pray you, unto Hezekiah, Thus said the great king, the king of Asshur, What [is] this confidence in which thou hast confided?
ラブシヤケこれに言けるは汝等ヒゼキヤに言べし大王アッスリヤの王かく言たまふ此汝が賴むところの者は何ぞや
20 Thou hast said: Only a word of the lips! counsel and might [are] for battle; now, on whom hast thou trusted that thou hast rebelled against me?
汝戰爭をなすの謀計と勇力とを言も只これ口の先の言語たるのみ誰を恃みて我に叛くことをせしや
21 'Now, lo, thou hast trusted for thee on the staff of this broken reed, on Egypt; which a man leaneth on, and it hath gone into his hand, and pierced it! — so [is] Pharaoh king of Egypt to all those trusting on him.
視よ汝は折かかれる葦の杖なるエジプトを賴む其は人の其に倚るあればすなはちその手を刺とほすなりエジプトの王パロは凡てこれを賴む者に斯あるなり
22 'And when ye say unto me, Unto Jehovah our God we have trusted, is it not He whose high places and whose altars Hezekiah hath turned aside, and saith to Judah and to Jerusalem, Before this altar do ye bow yourselves in Jerusalem?
汝等あるひは我はわれらの神ヱホバを賴むと我に言ん彼はヒゼキヤがその崇邱と祭壇とを除きたる者にあらずやまた彼はユダとエルサレムに告て汝等はエルサレムに於てこの壇の前に祷拝をなすべしと言しにあらずや
23 'And, now, give a pledge for thee, I pray thee, to my lord the king of Asshur, and I give to thee two thousand horses, if thou art able to give for thee riders on them.
然ば請ふわが主君アッスリヤの王に約をなせ汝もし人を乗しむることを得ば我馬二千匹を汝にあたへん
24 And how dost thou turn back the face of one captain of the least of the servants of my lord, that thou dost trust for thee on Egypt for chariot, and for horsemen?
汝いかにしてか吾主君の諸臣の中の最も微き一將だにも退くることを得ん汝なんぞエジプトを賴みて兵車と騎兵をこれに仰がんとするや
25 Now, without Jehovah have I come up against this place to destroy it? Jehovah said unto me, Go up against this land, and thou hast destroyed it.'
また我とても今ヱホバの旨によらずして比處を滅しに上れるならんやヱホバ我に此處に攻のぼりてこれを滅せと言たり
26 And Eliakim son of Hilkiah saith — and Shebna, and Joah — to the chief of the butlers, 'Speak, we pray thee, unto thy servants [in] Aramaean, for we are understanding, and do not speak with us [in] Jewish, in the ears of the people who [are] on the wall.'
時にヒルキヤの子エリアキムおよびセブナとヨア、ラダシヤケにいひけるは請ふスリアの語をもて僕等に語りたまへ我儕これを識なり石垣の上にをる民の聞るところにてユダヤ語をもて我儕に言談たまふなかれ
27 And the chief of the butlers saith unto them, 'For thy lord, and unto thee, hath my lord sent me to speak these words? is it not for the men, those sitting on the wall to eat their own dung and to drink their own water, with you?'
ラブシヤケかれらに言ふわが君唯我を汝の主と汝とにつかはして此言をのべしめたまふならんや亦石垣の上に坐する人々にも我を遣して彼等をして汝等とともに自己の便溺を食ひ且飮にいたらしめんとしたまふにあらずやと
28 And the chief of the butlers standeth and calleth with a great voice [in] Jewish, and speaketh and saith, 'Hear ye a word of the great king, the king of Asshur:
而してラブシヤケ起あがりユダヤ語をもて大聲に呼はり言をいだして曰けるは汝等大王アッスリヤの王の言を聽け
29 thus said the king, Let not Hezekiah lift you up, for he is not able to deliver you out of his hand;
王かく言たまふ汝等ヒゼキヤに欺かるるなかれ彼は汝等をわが手より救ひいだすことをえざるなり
30 and let not Hezekiah make you trust unto Jehovah, saying, Jehovah doth certainly deliver us, and this city is not given into the hand of the king of Asshur.
ヒゼキヤがヱホバかならず我らを救ひたまはん此邑はアッスリヤの王の手に陷らじと言て汝らにヱホバを賴ましめんとするとも
31 'Do not hearken unto Hezekiah, for thus said the king of Asshur, Make with me a blessing, and come out unto me, and eat ye each of his vine, and each of his fig-tree, and drink ye each the waters of his own well,
汝等ヒゼキヤの言を聽なかれアッスリヤの王かく言たまふ汝等約をなして我に降れ而して各人おのれの葡萄の樹の果を食ひ各人おのれの無花果樹の果をくらひ各人おのれの井水を飮めよ
32 till my coming in, and I have taken you unto a land like your own land, a land of corn and new wine, a land of bread and vineyards, a land of oil olive, and honey, and live, and die not; and do not hearken unto Hezekiah, when he persuadeth you, saying, Jehovah doth deliver us.
我來りて汝等を一の國に携ゆかん其は汝儕の國のごとき國穀と酒のある地パンと葡萄園のある地油の出る橄欖と蜜とのある地なり汝等は生ることを得ん死ることあらじヒゼキヤ、ヱホバ我儕を救ひたまはんと言て汝らを勸るともこれを聽なかれ
33 'Have the gods of the nations delivered at all each his land out of the hand of the king of Asshur?
國々の神の中執かその國をアッスリヤの王の手より救ひたりしや
34 Where [are] the gods of Hamath and Arpad? where the gods of Sepharvaim, Hena, and Ivvah, that they have delivered Samaria out of my hand?
ハマテおよびアルパデの神々は何處にあるセパルワイム、ヘナおよびアワの神々は何處にあるやサマリヤをわが手より救ひ出せし神々あるや
35 Who [are they] among all the gods of the lands that have delivered their land out of my hand, that Jehovah doth deliver Jerusalem out of my hand?'
國々の神の中にその國をわが手より救ひいだせし者ありしや然ばヱホバいかでかエルサレムをわが手より救ひいだすことを得んと
36 And the people have kept silent, and have not answered him a word, for the command of the king is, saying, 'Do not answer him.'
然ども民は默して一言もこれに應へざりき其は王命じてこれに應ふるなかれと言おきたればなり
37 And Eliakim son of Hilkiah, who [is] over the house, cometh in, and Shebna the scribe, and Joah son of Asaph the remembrancer, unto Hezekiah, with rent garments, and they declare to him the words of the chief of the butlers.
かくてヒルキヤの子なる宮内卿エリアキム書記官セブナおよびアサの子なる史官ヨアその衣をさきてヒゼキヤの許にいたりラブシヤケの言をこれに告たり
