2 Kings 19
1 And it cometh to pass, at king Hezekiah's hearing, that he rendeth his garments, and covereth himself with sackcloth, and entereth the house of Jehovah,
ヒゼキヤ王これを聞てその衣を裂き麻布を身にまとひてヱホバの家に入り
2 and sendeth Eliakim, who [is] over the house, and Shebna the scribe, and the elders of the priests, covering themselves with sackcloth, unto Isaiah the prophet, son of Amoz,
宮内卿エリアキムと書記官セブナと祭司の中の長老等とに麻布を衣せてこれをアモツの子預言者イザヤに遣せり
3 and they say unto him, 'Thus said Hezekiah — A day of distress, and rebuke, and despising [is] this day; for come have sons unto the birth, and power there is not to bring forth.
彼等イザヤに言けるはヒゼキヤかく言ふ今日は艱難の日懲罰の日打棄らるる日なり嬰孩すでに產門にいたりて之を產いだす力なき也
4 'It may be Jehovah thy God doth hear all the words of the chief of the butlers with which the king of Asshur his lord hath sent him to reproach the living God, and hath decided concerning the words that Jehovah thy God hath heard, and thou hast lifted up prayer for the remnant that is found.'
ラブシヤケその主君なるアッスリヤの王に差遣れて來り活る神を謗る汝の神ヱホバあるひは彼の言を聞たまはん而して汝の神ヱホバその聞る言語を責罰たまふこともあらん然ば汝この遺る者の爲に祈祷をたてまつれと
5 And the servants of king Hezekiah come in unto Isaiah,
ヒゼキヤ王の僕等すなはちイザヤの許にいたりければ
6 and Isaiah saith to them, 'Thus do ye say unto your lord: Thus said Jehovah, Be not afraid because of the words that thou hast heard, with which the servants of the king of Asshur have reviled Me.
イザヤかれらに言けるは汝等の主君にかく言べしヱホバかく言たまふアッスリヤの王の臣僕等が我を謗るところの言を汝聞て懼るるなかれ
7 Lo, I am giving in him a spirit, and he hath heard a report, and hath turned back to his land, and I have caused him to fall by the sword in his land.'
我かれの氣をうつして風聲を聞て己の國にかへるにいたらしめん我また彼をして自己の國に於て劍に斃れしむべしと
8 And the chief of the butlers turneth back and findeth the king of Asshur fighting against Libnah, for he hath heard that he hath journeyed from Lachish.
偖またラブシヤケは歸りゆきてアッスリヤの王がリブナに戰爭をなしをるとこるに至れり其は彼そのラキシを離れしを聞たればなり
9 And he heareth concerning Tirhakah king of Cush, saying, 'Lo, he hath come out to fight with thee;' and he turneth and sendeth messengers unto Hezekiah, saying,
茲にアッスリヤの王はエテオピアの王テルハカ汝に攻きたると言ふを聞てまた使者をヒゼキヤにつかはして言しむ
10 'Thus do ye speak unto Hezekiah king of Judah, saying, Let not thy God lift thee up in whom thou art trusting, saying, Jerusalem is not given into the hand of the king of Asshur.
汝等ユダの王ヒゼキヤに告て言べし汝エルサレムはアッスリヤの王の手に陷らじと言て汝が賴むところの神に欺かるるなかれ
11 Lo, thou hast heard that which the kings of Asshur have done to all the lands — to devote them; and thou art delivered!
汝はアッスリヤの王等が萬の國々になしたるところの事を知る即ちこれを滅しつくせしなり然ば汝いかで救らんや
12 did the gods of the nations deliver them whom my fathers destroyed — Gozan, and Haran, and Rezeph, and the sons of Eden, who [are] in Thelassar?
吾父等はゴザン、ハラン、レゼフおよびテラサルのエデンの人々等を滅ぼせしがその國々の神これを救ひたりしや
13 Where [is] the king of Hamath, and the king of Arpad, and the king of the city of Sepharvaim, Hena, and Ivvah?'
ハマテの王アルバデの王セバルワイムの邑およびヘナとアワの王等は何處にあるや
14 And Hezekiah taketh the letters out of the hand of the messengers, and readeth them, and goeth up to the house of Jehovah, and Hezekiah spreadeth it before Jehovah.
ヒゼキヤ使者の手より書を受てこれを讀みヱホバの家にのぼりゆきてヱホバの前にこれを展開げ
15 And Hezekiah prayeth before Jehovah, and saith, 'O Jehovah, God of Israel, inhabiting the cherubs, Thou [art] God Himself — Thyself alone — to all the kingdoms of the earth: Thou hast made the heavens and the earth.
而してヒゼキヤ、ヱホバの前に祈りて言けるはケルビムの間にいますイスラエルの神ヱホバよ世の國々の中において只汝のみ神にいます也汝は天地を造りたまひし者にいます
16 Incline, O Jehovah, Thine ear, and hear; open, O Jehovah, Thine eyes, and see; and hear Thou the words of Sennacherib with which he hath sent him to reproach the living God.
ヱホバよ耳を傾けて聞たまへヱホバよ目を開きて見たまへセナケリブが活る神を謗りにおくれる言語を聞たまへ
17 'Truly, O Jehovah, kings of Asshur have laid waste the nations, and their land,
ヱホバよ誠にアッスリヤの王等は諸の民とその國々を滅し
18 and have put their gods into fire, for they [are] no gods, but work of the hands of man, wood and stone, and destroy them.
又その神々を火になげいれたり其等は神にあらず人の手の作れる者にして木石たればこれを滅せしなり
19 And now, O Jehovah our God, save us, we pray Thee, out of his hand, and know do all kingdoms of the earth that Thou [art] Jehovah God — Thyself alone.'
今われらの神ヱホバよ願くは我らをかれの手より拯ひいだしたまへ然ば世の國々皆汝ヱホバのみ神にいますことを知にいたらん
20 And Isaiah son of Amoz sendeth unto Hezekiah, saying, 'Thus said Jehovah, God of Israel, That which thou hast prayed unto Me concerning Sennacherib king of Asshur I have heard:
茲にアモツの子イザヤ、ヒゼキヤに言つかはしけるはイスラエルの神ヱホバかく言たまふ汝がセナケリブの事につきて我に祈るところの事は我これを聽り
21 this [is] the word that Jehovah spake concerning him: 'Trampled on thee — laughed at thee, Hath the virgin daughter of Zion Behind thee shaken the head — Hath the daughter of Jerusalem?
ヱホバが彼の事につきて言ふところの言語は是のごとし云く處女なる女子シオンは汝を藐視じ汝を嘲る女子エルサレムは汝にむかひて頭を搖る
22 Whom hast thou reproached and reviled? And against whom lifted up a voice? Yea, thou dost lift up on high thine eyes — Against the Holy One of Israel!
汝誰を謗りかつ罵詈しや汝誰にむかひて聲をあげしや汝はイスラエルの聖者にむかひて汝の目を高く擧たるなり
23 By the hand of thy messengers Thou hast reproached the Lord, and sayest: In the multitude of my chariots I have come up to a high place of mountains — The sides of Lebanon, And I cut down the height of its cedars, The choice of its firs, And I enter the lodging of its extremity, The forest of its Carmel.
汝使者をもて主を謗て言ふ我夥多き兵車をひきゐて山々の嶺にのぼりレバノンの奧にいたり長高き香柏と美しき松樹を斫たふす我その境の休息所にいたりその園の林にいたる
24 I have digged, and drunk strange waters, And I dry up with the sole of my steps All floods of a bulwark.
我は外國の地をほりて水を飮む我は足の跖をもてエジプトの河々をことごとくふみ涸すなり
25 Hast thou not heard from afar, it I made, From days of old that I formed it? Now I have brought it in, And it becometh a desolation, Ruinous heaps [are] fenced cities,
汝聞ずや昔われ之を作し古時よりわれ之を定めたり今われ之をおこなふ即ち堅き邑々は汝のために坵墟となるなり
26 And their inhabitants [are] feeble-handed, They were broken down, and are dried up, They have been the herb of the field, And the greenness of the tender grass, Grass of the roofs, And blasted corn — before it hath risen up!
是をもてそれらの中にすむ民は力弱かり懼れかつ驚くなり彼等は野の草のごとく靑菜のごとく屋蓋の草のごとく枯る苗のごとし
27 And thy sitting down, and thy going out, And thy coming in, I have known, And thine anger towards Me;
汝の止ると汝の出ると汝の入と汝の我にむかひて怒くるふとは我の知ところなり
28 Because of thine anger towards Me, And thy noise — it came up into Mine ears, I have put My hook in thy nose, And My bridle in thy lips, And have caused thee to turn back, In the way in which thou camest.
汝の怒くるふ事と汝の傲慢ところの事上りてわが耳にいりたれば我圏を汝の鼻につけ轡を汝の唇にほどこして汝を元來し道へひきかへすべし
29 And this to thee [is] the sign, Food of the year [is] the spontaneous growth, And in the second year the self-produced, And in the third year sow ye, and reap, And plant vineyards, and eat their fruits.
是は汝にあたふる徴なり即ち一年は穭を食ひ第二年には又その穭を食ふあらん第三年には汝ら稼ことをし穡ことをし又葡萄園をつくりてその果を食ふべし
30 And it hath continued — The escaped of the house of Judah That hath been left — to take root beneath, And hath made fruit upward.
ユダの家の逃れて遺れる者は復根を下に張り實を上に結ばん
31 For from Jerusalem goeth out a remnant, And an escape from mount Zion; The zeal of Jehovah [of Hosts] doth this.
即ち殘餘者エルサレムより出で逃避たる者シオン山より出きたらんヱホバの熱心これを爲べし
32 Therefore, thus said Jehovah, Concerning the king of Asshur: He doth not come in unto this city, Nor doth he shoot there an arrow, Nor doth he come before it with shield. Nor doth he pour out against it a mount.
故にヱホバ、アッスリヤの王の事をかく言たまふ彼は此邑に入じ亦これに矢を發つことあらず楯を之にむかひて竪ることあらず亦壘をきづきてこれを攻ることあらじ
33 In the way that he cometh in — In it he turneth back, And unto this city he doth not come in, The affirmation of Jehovah —
彼はその來し路より歸らん此邑にいることあらじヱホバこれを言ふ
34 And I have covered over this city, To save it, for Mine own sake, And for the sake of David My servant.'
我わが身のため又わが僕ダビデのためにこの邑を守りてこれを救ふべし
35 And it cometh to pass, in that night, that a messenger of Jehovah goeth out, and smiteth in the camp of Asshur a hundred eighty and five thousand, and they rise early in the morning, and lo, all of them [are] dead corpses.
その夜ヱホバの使者いでてアッスリヤ人の陣營の者十八萬五千人を撃ころせり朝早く起いでて見るに皆死て屍となりをる
36 And Sennacherib king of Asshur journeyeth, and goeth, and turneth back, and dwelleth in Nineveh;
アッスリヤの王セナケリブすなはち起いで歸りゆきてニネベに居しが
37 and it cometh to pass, he is bowing himself in the house of Nisroch his god, and Adramelech and Sharezar [his sons] have smitten him with the sword, and they have escaped to the land of Ararat, and Esar-Haddon his son reigneth in his stead.
その神ニスロクの家にありて禮拝をなしをる時にその子アデランメレクとシヤレゼル劍をもてこれを殺せり而して彼等はアララテの池に逃ゆけり是においてその子エサルハドンこれに代りて王となれり
