列王記Ⅰ 2
1 ダビデ死ぬる日近よりければ其子ソロモンに命じていふ
Now the days of David drew near that he should die. And he charged Solomon his son, saying,
2 我は世人の皆往く途に往んとす汝は強く丈夫のごとく爲れ
I am going the way of all the earth. Be thou strong therefore, and show thyself a man,
3 汝の神ヱホバの職守を守り其道に歩行み其法憲と其誡命と其律例と其證言とをモーセの律法に録されたるごとく守るべし然らば汝凡て汝の爲ところと凡て汝の向ふところにて榮ゆべし
and keep the charge of Jehovah thy God, to walk in his ways, to keep his statutes, and his commandments, and his ordinances, and his testimonies, according to that which is written in the law of Moses, that thou may prosper in all that thou do, and wherever thou turn thyself.
4 又ヱホバは其甞に我の事に付て語りて若汝の子等其道を愼み心を盡し精神を盡して眞實をもて吾前に歩ばイスラエルの位に上る人汝に缺ることなかるべしと言たまひし言を堅したまはん
That Jehovah may establish his word which he spoke concerning me, saying, If thy sons take heed to their way, to walk before me in truth with all their heart and with all their soul, there shall not fail thee a man on the throne of Israel.
5 又汝はゼルヤの子ヨアブが我に爲たる事即ち彼がイスラエルの二人の軍の長ネルの子アブネルとヱテルの子アマサに爲たる事を知る彼此二人を切殺し太平の時に戰の血を流し戰の血を己の腰の周圍の帶と其足の履に染たり
Moreover thou also know what Joab the son of Zeruiah did to me, even what he did to the two captains of the armies of Israel, to Abner the son of Ner, and to Amasa the son of Jether, whom he killed, and shed the blood of war in peace, and put the blood of war upon his belt that was about his loins, and in his shoes that were on his feet.
Do therefore according to thy wisdom, and do not let his hoar head go down to Sheol in peace. (Sheol h7585)
7 但しギレアデ人バルジライの子等には恩惠を施こし彼等をして汝の席にて食ふ者の中にあらしめよ彼等はわが汝の兄弟アブサロムの面を避て逃し時我に就たるなり
But show kindness to the sons of Barzillai the Gileadite, and let them be of those who eat at thy table, for so they came to me when I fled from Absalom thy brother.
8 視よ又バホリムのベニヤミン人ゲラの子シメイ汝とともに在り彼はわがマナハイムに往し時勵しき詛言をもて我を詛へり然ども彼ヨルダンに下りて我を迎へたれば我ヱホバを指て誓ひて我劍をもて汝を殺さじといへり
And, behold, there is with thee Shimei the son of Gera, the Benjamite, of Bahurim, who cursed me with a grievous curse in the day when I went to Mahanaim. But he came down to meet me at the Jordan, and I swore to him by Jehovah, saying, I will not put thee to death with the sword.
Now therefore do not hold him guiltless, for thou are a wise man, and thou will know what thou ought to do to him, and thou shall bring his hoar head down to Sheol with blood. (Sheol h7585)
10 斯てダビデは其父祖と偕に寝りてダビデの城に葬らる
And David slept with his fathers, and was buried in the city of David.
11 ダビデのイスラエルに王たりし日は四十年なりき即ちヘブロンにて王たりし事七年エルサレムにて王たりし事三十三年
And the days that David reigned over Israel were forty years. He reigned seven years in Hebron, and he reigned thirty-three years in Jerusalem.
12 ソロモン其父ダビデの位に坐し其國は堅固く定まりぬ
And Solomon sat upon the throne of David his father, and his kingdom was established greatly.
13 爰にハギテの子アドニヤ、ソロモンの母バテシバの所に來りければバテシバいひけるは汝は平穩なる事のために來るや彼いふ平穩たる事のためなり
Then Adonijah the son of Haggith came to Bathsheba the mother of Solomon. And she said, Do thou come peaceably? And he said, Peaceably.
14 彼又いふ我は汝に言さんとする事ありとバテシバいふ言されよ
He said moreover, I have something to say to thee. And she said, Say on.
15 かれいひけるは汝の知ごとく國は我の有にしてイスラエル皆其面を我に向て王となさんと爲りしかるに國は轉てわが兄弟の有となれり其彼の有となれるはヱホバより出たるなり
And he said, Thou know that the kingdom was mine, and that all Israel set their faces on me, that I should reign. However the kingdom is turned about, and has become my brother's, for it was his from Jehovah.
16 今我一の願を汝に求む請ふわが面を黜くるなかれバテシバかれにいひけるは言されよ
And now I ask one petition of thee; do not deny me. And she said to him, Say on.
17 彼いひけるは請ふソロモン王に言て彼をしてシエナミ人アビシヤグを我に與て妻となさしめよ彼は汝の面を黜けざるべければなり
And he said, Speak, I pray thee, to Solomon the king (for he will not say no thee), that he give me Abishag the Shunammite to wife.
18 バテシバいふ善し我汝のために王に言んと
And Bathsheba said, Well, I will speak for thee to the king.
19 かくてバテシバ、アドニヤのために言とてソロモン王の許に至りければ王起てかれを迎へ彼を拝して其位に坐なほり王母のために座を設けしむ乃ち其右に坐せり
Bathsheba therefore went to king Solomon to speak to him for Adonijah. And the king rose up to meet her, and bowed himself to her, and sat down on his throne, and caused a throne to be set for the king's mother. And she sat on his right hand.
20 しかしてバテシバいひけるは我一の細小き願を汝に求むわが面を黜くるなかれ王かれにいひけるは母上よ求めたまへ我汝の面を黜けざるなり
Then she said, I ask one small petition of thee; do not deny me. And the king said to her, Ask on, my mother, for I will not deny thee.
21 彼いひけるは請ふシユナミ人アビシヤグをアドニヤに與て妻となさしめよ
And she said, Let Abishag the Shunammite be given to Adonijah thy brother to wife.
22 ソロモン王答て其母にいひけるは何ぞアドニヤのためにシユナミ人アビシヤグを求めらるるや彼のために國をも求められよ彼は我の兄なればなり彼と祭司アビヤタルとゼルヤの子ヨアブのために求められよと
And king Solomon answered and said to his mother, And why do thou ask Abishag the Shunammite for Adonijah? Ask for him the kingdom also, for he is my elder brother, even for him, and for Abiathar the priest, and for Joab the son of Zeruiah.
23 ソロモン王乃ちヱホバを指て誓ひていふ神我に斯なし又重ねて斯なしたまへアドニヤは其身の生命を喪はんとて此言を言いだせり
Then king Solomon swore by Jehovah, saying, God do so to me, and more also, if Adonijah has not spoken this word against his own life.
24 我を立てわが父ダビデの位に上しめ其約せしごとく我に家を建たまひしヱホバは生くアドニヤは今日戮さるべしと
Now therefore as Jehovah lives, who has established me, and set me on the throne of David my father, and who has made me a house as he promised, surely Adonijah shall be put to death this day.
25 ソロモン王ヱホヤダの子ベナヤを遣はしければ彼アドニヤを撃て死しめたり
And king Solomon sent by Benaiah the son of Jehoiada, and he fell upon him so that he died.
26 王また祭司アビヤタルにいひけるは汝の故田アナトテにいたれ汝は死に當る者なれども嚮にわが父ダビデのまへに神ヱホバの櫃を舁き又凡てわが父の艱難を受たる處にて汝も艱難を受たれば我今日は汝を戮さじと
And the king said to Abiathar the priest, Get thee to Anathoth, to thine own fields, for thou are worthy of death. But I will not at this time put thee to death, because thou bore the ark of the lord Jehovah before David my father, and because thou were afflicted in all wherein my father was afflicted.
27 ソロモン、アビヤタルを逐いだしてヱホバの祭司たらしめざりき斯ヱホバがシロにてエリの家につきて言たまひし言應たり
So Solomon thrust out Abiathar from being priest to Jehovah, that he might fulfill the word of Jehovah, which he spoke concerning the house of Eli in Shiloh.
28 爰に其風聞ヨアブに達りければヨアブ、ヱホバの幕屋に遁れて壇の角を執たり其はヨアブは轉てアブサロムには隨はざりしかどもアドニヤに隨ひたればなり
And the news came to Joab, for Joab had turned after Adonijah, though he did not turn after Absalom. And Joab fled to the tent of Jehovah, and caught hold on the horns of the altar.
29 ヨアブがヱホバの幕屋に遁れて壇の傍に居ることソロモンに聞えければソロモン、ヱホヤダの子ベナヤを遣はしいひけるは往て彼を撃てと
And it was told king Solomon, Joab has fled to the tent of Jehovah, and, behold, he is by the altar. Then Solomon sent Benaiah the son of Jehoiada, saying, Go, fall upon him.
30 ベナヤ乃ちヱホバの幕屋にいたり彼にいひけるは王斯言ふ出來れ彼いひけるは否我は此に死んとベナヤ反て王に告てヨアブ斯言ひ斯我に答へたりと言ふ
And Benaiah came to the tent of Jehovah, and said to him, Thus says the king, Come forth. And he said, No, but I will die here. And Benaiah brought the king word again, saying, Thus said Joab, and thus he answered me.
31 王ベナヤにいひけるは彼が言ふごとく爲し彼を撃て葬りヨアブが故なくして流したる血を我とわが父の家より除去べし
And the king said to him, Do as he has said, and fall upon him, and bury him, that thou may take away the blood, which Joab shed without cause, from me and from my father's house.
32 又ヱホバはヨアブの血を其身の首に歸したまふべし其は彼は己よりも義く且善りし二の人を撃ち劍をもてこれを殺したればなり即ちイスラエルの軍の長ネルの子アブネルとユダの軍の長ヱテルの子アマサを殺せり然るに吾父ダビデは與り知ざりき
And Jehovah will return his blood upon his own head, because he fell upon two men more righteous and better than he, and killed them with the sword, and my father David did not know it, namely, Abner the son of Ner, captain of the army of Israel, and Amasa the son of Jether, captain of the army of Judah.
33 されば彼等の血は長久にヨアブの首と其苗裔の首に皈すべし然どダビデと其苗裔と其家と其位にはヱホバよりの平安永久にあるべし
So shall their blood return upon the head of Joab, and upon the head of his seed forever. But to David, and to his seed, and to his house, and to his throne, there shall be peace forever from Jehovah.
34 ヱホヤダの子ベナヤすなはち上りて彼を撃ち彼を殺せり彼は野にある己の家に葬らる
Then Benaiah the son of Jehoiada went up, and fell upon him, and killed him. And he was buried in his own house in the wilderness.
35 王乃ちヱホヤダの子ベナヤをヨアブに代て軍の長となせり王また祭司ザドクをしてアビヤタルに代しめたり
And the king put Benaiah the son of Jehoiada in his room over the army. And the king put Zadok the priest in the place of Abiathar.
36 又王人を遣てシメイを召て之に曰けるはエルサレムに於て汝の爲に家を建て其處に住み其處より此にも彼にも出るなかれ
And the king sent and called for Shimei, and said to him, Build for thee a house in Jerusalem, and dwell there, and go not forth from there anywhere.
37 汝が出てキデロン川を濟る日には汝確に知れ汝必ず戮さるべし汝の血は汝の首に歸せん
For on the day thou go out, and pass over the brook Kidron, know thou for certain that thou shall surely die; thy blood shall be upon thine own head.
38 シメイ王にいひけるは此言は善し王わが主の言たまへるごとく僕然なすべしと斯シメイ日久しくエルサレムに住り
And Shimei said to the king, The saying is good. As my lord the king has said, so will thy servant do. And Shimei dwelt in Jerusalem many days.
39 三年の後シメイの二人の僕ガテの王マアカの子アキシの所に逃されり人々シメイに告ていふ視よ汝の僕はガテにありと
And it came to pass at the end of three years, that two of the servants of Shimei ran away to Achish, son of Maacah, king of Gath. And they told Shimei, saying, Behold, thy servants are in Gath.
40 シメイ乃ち起て其驢馬に鞍置きガテに往てアキシに至り其僕を尋ねたり即ちシメイ往て其僕をガテより携來りしが
And Shimei arose, and saddled his donkey, and went to Gath to Achish to seek his servants. And Shimei went, and brought his servants from Gath.
41 シメイのエルサレムよりガテにゆきて歸しことソロモンに聞えければ
And it was told Solomon that Shimei had gone from Jerusalem to Gath, and was come again.
42 王人を遣てシメイを召て之にいひけるは我汝をしてヱホバを指て誓しめ且汝を戒めて汝確に知れ汝が出て此彼に歩く日には汝必ず戮さるべしと言しにあらずや又汝は我に我聞る言葉は善しといへり
And the king sent and called for Shimei, and said to him, Did I not adjure thee by Jehovah, and protest to thee, saying, Know for certain, that on the day thou go out, and walk abroad anywhere, thou shall surely die? And thou said to me, The saying that I have heard is good.
43 しかるに汝なんぞヱホバの誓とわが汝に命じたる命令を守ざりしや
Why then have thou not kept the oath of Jehovah, and the commandment that I have charged thee with?
44 王又シメイにいひけるは汝は凡て汝の心の知る諸の惡即ち汝がわが父ダビデに爲たる所を知るヱホバ汝の惡を汝の首に歸したまふ
The king said moreover to Shimei, Thou know all the iniquity which thy heart is privy to, what thou did to David my father. Therefore Jehovah shall return thy iniquity upon thine own head.
45 されどソロモン王は福祉を蒙らんまたダビデの位は永久にヱホバのまへに固く立べしと
But king Solomon shall be blessed, and the throne of David shall be established before Jehovah forever.
46 王ヱホヤダの子ベナヤに命じければ彼出てシメイを撃ちて死しめたりしかして國はソロモンの手に固く立り
So the king commanded Benaiah the son of Jehoiada. And he went out, and fell upon him so that he died. And the kingdom was established in the hand of Solomon.
