< 列王記Ⅰ 13 >
1 視よ爰に神の人ヱホバの言に由てユダよりベテルに來れり時にヤラベアムは壇の上に立て香を焚ゐたり
And lo, a man of God hath come from Judah, by the word of Jehovah, unto Beth-El, and Jeroboam is standing by the altar — to make perfume;
2 神の人乃ちヱホバの言を以て壇に向ひて呼はり言けるは壇よ壇よヱホバ斯言たまふ視よダビデの家にヨシアと名くる一人の子生るべし彼爾の上に香を焚く所の崇邱の祭司を爾の上に献げん且人の骨爾の上に燒れんと
and he calleth against the altar, by the word of Jehovah, and saith, 'Altar! altar! thus said Jehovah, Lo, a son is born to the house of David — Josiah his name — and he hath sacrificed on thee the priests of the high places who are making perfume on thee, and bones of man are burnt on thee.'
3 是日彼異蹟を示して言けるは是はヱホバの言たまへる事の異蹟なり視よ壇は裂け其上にある灰は傾出んと
And he hath given on that day a sign, saying, 'This [is] the sign that Jehovah hath spoken, Lo, the altar is rent, and the ashes poured forth that [are] on it.'
4 ヤラベアム王神の人がベテルにある壇に向ひて呼はりたる言を聞る時其手を壇より伸し彼を執へよと言けるが其彼に向ひて伸したる手枯て再び屈縮ることを得ざりき
And it cometh to pass, at the king's hearing the word of the man of God that he calleth against the altar in Beth-El, that Jeroboam putteth forth his hand from off the altar, saying, 'Catch him;' and his hand is dried up that he hath put forth against him, and he is not able to bring it back unto him,
5 しかして神の人がヱホバの言を以て示したる異蹟の如く壇は裂け灰は壇より傾出たり
and the altar is rent, and the ashes poured forth from the altar, according to the sign that the man of God had given by the word of Jehovah.
6 王答て神の人に言けるは請ふ爾の神ヱホバの面を和めわが爲に祈りてわが手を本に復しめよ神の人乃ちヱホバの面を和めければ王の手本に復りて前のごとくに成り
And the king answereth and saith unto the man of God, 'Appease, I pray thee, the face of Jehovah thy God, and pray for me, and my hand doth come back unto me;' and the man of God appeaseth the face of Jehovah, and the hand of the king cometh back unto him, and it is as at the beginning.
7 是において王神の人に言けるは我と與に家に來りて身を息めよ我爾に禮物を與へんと
And the king speaketh unto the man of God, 'Come in with me to the house, and refresh thyself, and I give to thee a gift.'
8 神の人王に言けるは爾假令爾の家の半を我に與ふるも我は爾とともに入じ又此所にてパンを食ず水を飮ざるべし
And the man of God saith unto the king, 'If thou dost give to me the half of thine house, I do not go in with thee, nor do I eat bread, nor do I drink water, in this place;
9 其はヱホバの言我にパンを食ふなかれ水を飮なかれ又爾が往る途より歸るなかれと命じたればなりと
for so He commanded me by the word of Jehovah, saying, Thou dost not eat bread nor drink water, nor turn back in the way that thou hast come.'
10 斯彼他途を往き自己がベテルに來れる途よりは歸らざりき
And he goeth on in another way, and hath not turned back in the way in which he came in unto Beth-El.
11 爰にベテルに一人の老たる預言者住ゐたりしが其子等來りて是日神の人がベテルにて爲たる諸事を彼に宣たり亦神の人の王に言たる言をも其父に宣たり
And a certain aged prophet is dwelling in Beth-El, and his son cometh and recounteth to him all the deed that the man of God hath done to-day in Beth-El, the words that he hath spoken unto the king, — yea, they recount them to their father.
12 其父彼等に彼は何の途を往しやといふ其子等ユダより來りし神の人の往たる途を見たればなり
And their father saith unto them, 'Where [is] this — the way he hath gone?' and his sons see the way that the man of God hath gone who came from Judah.
13 彼其子等に言けるは我ために驢馬に鞍おけと彼等驢馬に鞍おきければ彼之に乗り
And he saith unto his sons, 'Saddle for me the ass,' and they saddle for him the ass, and he rideth on it,
14 神の人の後に往きて橡の樹の下に坐するを見之にいひけるは汝はユダより來れる神の人なるか其人然りと言ふ
and goeth after the man of God, and findeth him sitting under the oak, and saith unto him, 'Art thou the man of God who hast come from Judah?' and he saith, 'I [am].'
15 彼其人にいひけるは我と偕に家に往てパンを食へ
And he saith unto him, 'Come with me to the house, and eat bread.'
16 其人いふ我は汝と偕に歸る能はず汝と偕に入あたはず又我は此處にて爾と偕にパンを食ず水を飮じ
And he saith, 'I am not able to turn back with thee, and to go in with thee, nor do I eat bread or drink with thee water in this place,
17 其はヱホバの言我に爾彼處にてパンを食ふなかれ水を飮なかれ又爾が至れる所の途より歸り往なかれと言たればなりと
for a word [is] unto me by the word of Jehovah, Thou dost not eat bread nor drink there water, thou dost not turn back to go in the way in which thou camest.'
18 彼其人にいひけるは我も亦爾の如く預言者なるが天の使ヱホバの言を以て我に告て彼を爾と偕に爾の家に携かへり彼にパンを食はしめ水を飮しめよといへりと是其人を誑けるなり
And he saith to him, 'I also [am] a prophet like thee, and a messenger spake unto me by the word of Jehovah, saying, Bring him back with thee unto thy house, and he doth eat bread and drink water;' — he hath lied to him.
19 是において其人彼と偕に歸り其家にてパンを食ひ水を飮り
And he turneth back with him, and eateth bread in his house, and drinketh water.
20 彼等が席に坐せし時ヱホバの言其人を携歸し預言者に臨みければ
And it cometh to pass — they are sitting at the table — and a word of Jehovah is unto the prophet who brought him back,
21 彼ユダより來れる神の人に向ひて呼はり言けるはヱホバ斯言たまふ爾ヱホバの口に違き爾の神ヱホバの爾に命じたまひし命令を守らずして歸り
and he calleth unto the man of God who came from Judah, saying, 'Thus said Jehovah, Because that thou hast provoked the mouth of Jehovah, and hast not kept the command that Jehovah thy God charged thee,
22 ヱホバの爾にパンを食ふなかれ水を飮なかれと言たまひし處にてパンを食ひ水を飮たれば爾の屍は爾の父祖の墓に至らざるべしと
and turnest back and dost eat bread and drink water in the place of which He said unto thee, Thou dost not eat bread nor drink water — thy carcase cometh not in unto the burying-place of thy fathers.'
23 其人のパンを食ひ水を飮し後彼其人のため即ち己が携歸りたる預言者のために驢馬に鞍おけり
And it cometh to pass, after his eating bread, and after his drinking, that he saddleth for him the ass, for the prophet whom he had brought back,
24 斯て其人往けるが獅子途にて之に遇ひて之を殺せり而して其屍は途に棄られ驢馬は其傍に立ち獅子も亦其屍の側に立り
and he goeth, and a lion findeth him in the way, and putteth him to death, and his carcase is cast in the way, and the ass is standing near it, and the lion is standing near the carcase.
25 人々經過て途に棄られたる屍と其屍の側に立る獅子を見て來り彼老たる預言者の住る邑にて語れり
And lo, men are passing by, and see the carcase cast in the way, and the lion standing near the carcase, and they come and speak [of it] in the city in which the old prophet is dwelling.
26 彼人を途より携歸りたる預言者聞て言けるは其はヱホバの口に違きたる神の人なりヱホバの彼に言たまひし言の如くヱホバ彼を獅子に付したまひて獅子彼を裂き殺せりと
And the prophet who brought him back out of the way heareth and saith, 'It [is] the man of God who provoked the mouth of Jehovah, and Jehovah giveth him to the lion, and it destroyeth him, and putteth him to death, according to the word of Jehovah that he spake to him.'
27 しかして其子等に語りて言けるは我ために驢馬に鞍おけと彼等鞍おきければ
And he speaketh unto his sons saying, 'Saddle for me the ass,' and they saddle [it].
28 彼往て其屍の途に棄られ驢馬と獅子の其屍の傍に立るを見たり獅子は屍を食はず驢馬をも裂ざりき
And he goeth and findeth his carcase cast in the way, and the ass and the lion are standing near the carcase — the lion hath not eaten the carcase nor destroyed the ass.
29 預言者乃ち神の人の屍を取あげて之を驢馬に載せて携歸れりしかして其老たる預言者邑に入り哀哭みて之を葬れり
And the prophet taketh up the carcase of the man of God, and placeth it on the ass, and bringeth it back, and the old prophet cometh in unto the city to mourn and to bury him,
30 即ち其屍を自己の墓に置め皆之がために嗚呼わが兄弟よといひて哀哭り
and he placeth his carcase in his own grave, and they mourn for him, 'Oh, my brother!'
31 彼人を葬りし後彼其子等に語りて言けるは我が死たる時は神の人を葬りたる墓に我を葬りわが骨を彼の骨の側に置めよ
And it cometh to pass, after his burying him, that he speaketh unto his sons, saying, 'At my death — ye have buried me in the burying-place in which the man of God is buried; near his bones place my bones;
32 其は彼がヱホバの言を以てベテルにある壇にむかひ又サマリアの諸邑に在る崇邱の凡の家に向ひて呼はりたる言は必ず成べければなり
for the word certainly cometh to pass that he called by the word of Jehovah concerning the altar which [is] Beth-El, and concerning all the houses of the high places that [are] in cities of Samaria.'
33 斯事の後ヤラベアム其惡き途を離れ歸ずして復凡の民を崇邱の祭司と爲り即ち誰にても好む者は之を立てければ其人は崇邱の祭司と爲り
After this thing Jeroboam hath not turned from his evil way, and turneth back, and maketh of the extremities of the people priests of high places; he who is desirous he consecrateth his hand, and he is of the priests of the high places.
34 此事ヤラベアムの家の罪戻となりて遂に之をして地の表面より消失せ滅亡に至らしむ
And in this thing is the sin of the house of Jeroboam, even to cut [it] off, and to destroy [it] from off the face of the ground.
