列王記Ⅰ 22
1 スリアとイスラエルの間に戰爭なくして三年を經たり
And there continued three years without war between Syria and Israel.
2 第三年にユダの王ヨシヤパテ、イスラエルの王の所に降れり
But it came to pass, in the third year, that Jehoshaphat king of Judah went down unto the king of Israel.
3 イスラエルの王其臣僕に言けるはギレアデのラモテは我儕の所有なるを爾等知や然るに我儕はスリアの王の手より之を取ることをせずして默しをるなり
And the king of Israel said unto his servants, Know ye that, ours, is Ramoth-gilead, —yet, we, are too idle to take it out of the hand of the king of Syria?
4 彼ヨシヤパテに言けるは爾我と共にギレアデのラモテに戰ひにゆくやヨシヤパテ、イスラエルの王にいひけるは我は爾のごとくわが民は爾の民の如くわが馬は爾の馬の如しと
And he said unto Jehoshaphat, Wilt thou go with me to make war upon Ramoth-gilead?
5 ヨシヤパテ、イスラエルの王に言けるは請ふ今日ヱホバの言を問へ
And Jehoshaphat said unto the king of Israel, I am as thou art, my people are us thy people, my horses as thy horses.
6 是においてイスラエルの王預言者四百人許を集めて之に言けるは我ギレアデのラモテに戰ひにゆくべきや又は罷べきや彼等曰けるは上るべし主之を王の手に付したまふべしと
Then said Jehoshaphat unto the king of Israel, —Seek, I pray thee, at once, the word of Yahweh. So the king of Israel gathered together the prophets, about four hundred men, and said unto them—Shall I go against Ramoth-gilead, to battle, or shall I forbear? And they said—Go up, that the Lord may deliver it into the hand of the king.
7 ヨシヤパテ曰けるは外に我儕の由て問べきヱホバの預言者此にあらざるや
Then said Jehoshaphat, Is there not here a prophet of Yahweh, besides, —that we may seek, from him?
8 イスラエルの王ヨシヤパテに言けるは外にイムラの子ミカヤ一人あり之に由てヱホバに問ふことを得ん然ど彼は我に關て善事を預言せず唯惡事のみを預言すれば我彼を惡むなりとヨシヤパテ曰けるは王然言たまふなかれと
And the king of Israel said unto Jehoshaphat, Besides, is a certain man, by whom we might seek Yahweh, but, I, hate him, for he is never moved to prophesy concerning me anything good, only evil, Micaiah, son of Imlah. And Jehoshaphat said, Let not the king say so.
9 是によりてイスラエルの王一箇の官吏を呼てイムラの子ミカヤを急ぎ來らしめよと言り
Then the king of Israel called a certain courtier, —and said, Hasten Micaiah son of Imlah.
10 イスラエルの王およびユダの王ヨシヤパテ朝衣を著てサマリアの門の入口の廣場に各其位に坐しゐたり預言者は皆其前に預言せり
Now, the king of Israel, and Jehoshaphat king of Judah, were sitting—each man upon his throne, having put on robes, in a level place, at the entrance of the gate of Samaria, —and, all the prophets, were being moved to prophesy before them;
11 ケナアナの子ゼデキヤ鐵の角を造りて言けるはヱホバ斯言給ふ爾是等を以てスリア人を抵觸て之を盡すべしと
when Zedekiah son of Chenaanah made himself horns of iron, —and said—Thus, saith Yahweh, —With these, shalt thou push down the Syrians, until thou hast consumed them.
12 預言者皆斯預言して言ふギレアデのラモテに上りて勝利を獲たまへヱホバ之を王の手に付したまふべしと
And, all the prophets, were being moved to prophesy, in like manner, saying, —Go up to Ramoth-gilead, and thou shalt prosper, and Yahweh will deliver it, into the hand of the king.
13 茲にミカヤを召んとて往たる使者之に語りて言けるは預言者等の言一の口の如くにして王に善し請ふ汝の言を彼等の一人の言の如くならしめて善事を言へと
Now, the messenger who went to call Micaiah, spake unto him, saying, Behold, I pray thee, the words of the prophets, with one mouth, are good, as touching the king, let thy word, I pray thee, be as the word of one of them, so wilt thou speak that which is good.
14 ミカヤ曰けるはヱホバは生くヱホバの我に言たまふ事は我之を言んと
And Micaiah said, —By the life of Yahweh, what Yahweh saith unto me, that, will I, speak.
15 かくて彼王に至るに王彼に言けるはミカヤよ我儕ギレアデのラモテに戰ひに往くべきや又は罷べきや彼王に言けるは上りて勝利を得たまへヱホバ之を王の手に付したまふべしと
So he came unto the king, and the king said unto him, Micaiah, shall we go against Ramoth-gilead to battle, or shall we forbear? And he said unto him—Go up and prosper, and Yahweh will deliver it into the hand of the king.
16 王彼に言けるは我幾度汝を誓はせたらば汝ヱホバの名を以て唯眞實のみを我に告るや
And the king said unto him, How many times must, I, adjure thee, —that thou speak unto me nothing but truth, in the name of Yahweh?
17 彼言けるは我イスラエルの皆牧者なき羊のごとく山に散をるを見たるにヱホバ是等の者は主なし各安然に其家に歸るべしと言たまへりと
And he said—I saw all Israel, scattered among the mountains, like sheep that have no shepherd, —so Yahweh said, These have, no masters, let them return every man unto his own house, in peace.
18 イスラエルの王ヨシヤパテに言けるは我汝に彼は我について善き事を預言せず唯惡き事のみを預言すと告たるにあらすやと
Then said the king of Israel, unto Jehoshaphat, —Did I not say unto thee, He will not be moved to prophesy concerning me anything good, only calamity.
19 ミカヤ言けるは然ば汝ヱホバの言を聽べし我ヱホバの其位に坐しゐたまひて天の萬軍の其傍に右左に立つを見たるに
Then he said, Therefore, hear thou the word of Yahweh, —I saw Yahweh, sitting upon his throne, and all the host of the heavens, standing by him, on his right hand, and on his left.
20 ヱホバ言たまひけるは誰かアハブを誘ひて彼をしてギレアデのラモテに上りて弊れしめんかと則ち一は此の如くせんと言ひ一は彼の如くせんといへり
And Yahweh said, Who will persuade Ahab, that he may go up and fall, at Ramoth-gilead? And, one, said in this manner, and, another, said in that manner.
21 遂に一の霊進み出てヱホバの前に立ち我彼を誘はんと言ければ
Then came forth a spirit, and stood before Yahweh, and said—I, will persuade him.
22 ヱホバ彼に何を以てするかと言たまふに我出て虚言を言ふ霊となりて其諸の預言者の口にあらんと言りヱホバ言たまひけるは汝は誘ひ亦之を成し遂ん出て然なすべしと
And Yahweh said unto him—Wherewith? And he said—I will go forth, and become a spirit of falsehood in the mouth of all his prophets, —So he said, —Thou mayest persuade, yea and prevail, go forth, and do so.
23 故に視よヱホバ虚言を言ふ霊を爾の此諸の預言者の口に入たまへり又ヱホバ爾に關て災禍あらんことを言たまへりと
Now, therefore, lo! Yahweh hath suffered a spirit of falsehood to be put into the mouth of all these thy prophets. But, Yahweh himself, hath spoken concerning thee, calamity.
24 ケナアナの子ゼデキヤ近よりてミカヤの頬を批て言けるはヱホバの霊何途より我を離れゆきて爾に語ふや
Then drew near Zedekiah, son of Chenaanah, and smote Micaiah on the cheek, —and said—Where then passed the Spirit of Yahweh, from me, to speak unto thee?
25 ミカヤいひけるは爾奧の間に入て身を匿す日に見るにいたらん
Then said Micaiah, Lo! thou art about to see, on that day, —when thou enterest a chamber within a chamber, to hide thyself.
26 イスラエルの王言けるはミカヤを取て之を邑の宰アモンと王の子ヨアシに曳かへりて言ふべし
And the king of Israel said, Take Micaiah, and carry him back unto Amon captain of the city, —and unto Joash son of the king;
27 王斯言ふ此を牢に置れて苦惱のパンと苦惱の水を以て之を養ひ我が平安に來るを待てと
and thou shalt say—Thus, saith the king, Put this man into the prison, —and let him eat the bread of oppression, with the water of oppression, until I enter in peace.
28 ミカヤ言けるは爾若眞に平安に歸るならばヱホバ我によりて言たまはざりしならん又曰けるは爾等民よ皆聽べし
Then said Micaiah, If thou, return, in peace, Yahweh hath not spoken by me. And he said, Hear, ye peoples, all of you!
29 かくてイスラエルの王とユダの王ヨシヤパテ、ギレアデのラモテに上れり
So the king of Israel went up, with Jehoshaphat king of Judah, unto Ramoth-gilead.
30 イスラエルの王ヨシヤパテに言けるは我装を改て戰陣の中に入らん然ど爾は王衣を衣るべしとイスラエルの王装を改て戰陣の中にいりぬ
And the king of Israel said unto Jehoshaphat—I am about to disguise myself, and enter into the battle, thou, therefore, put on thy robes. So the king of Israel disguised himself, and entered into the battle.
31 スリアの王其戰車の長三十二人に命じて言けるは爾等小者とも大者とも戰ふなかれ惟イスラエルの王とのみ戰へと
Now, the king of Syria, had commanded the captains of chariots which he had, thirty and two, saying, Ye shall not fight with small or great, —save with the king of Israel alone.
32 戰車の長等ヨシヤパテを見て是必ずイスラエルの王ならんと言ひ身をめぐらして之と戰はんとしければヨシヤパテ號呼れり
And it came to pass, when the chariot-captains saw Jehoshaphat, that, they, said: Surely it is, the king of Israel! But, when they turned aside against him to fight, Jehoshaphat cried out.
33 戰車の長彼がイスラエルの王にあらざるを見しかば之を追ふことをやめて返れり
And it came to pass, when the chariot-captains saw that it was, not the king of Israel, that they turned back, from pursuing him.
34 茲に一個の人偶然弓を挽てイスラエルの王の胸當と艸摺の間を射たりければ彼其御者に言けるは我傷を受たれば爾の手を旋して我を軍中より出すべしと
But, a certain man, drawing a bow in his innocence, smote the king of Israel, between the shoulder-joints and the coat of mail, —wherefore he said to his charioteer—Turn thy hand, and convey me out of the host, for I am sore wounded.
35 是日戰爭嚴くなりぬ王は車の中に扶持られて立ちスリア人に對ひをりしが晩景にいたりて死たり創の血車の中に流る
But the battle increased that day, and, the king, was propped up in the chariot, before the Syrians, —and died in the evening, and so the blood of the wound ran out into the hollow of the chariot.
36 日の沒る頃軍中に呼はりて曰ふあり各其邑に各其郷に歸るべしと
And a loud cry went through the host, at the going in of the sun, saying—Every man to his own city! and every man to his own land!
37 王死て携へられてサマリアに至りたれば衆人王をサマリアに葬れり
So the king died, and was brought into Samaria, —and they buried the king, in Samaria.
38 又其車をサマリアの池に濯ひけるに犬其血を舐たり又遊女其所に身をあらへりヱホバの言たまへる言の如し
And, when the chariot was washed out at the pool of Samaria, the dogs lapped up his blood, also, the harlots, bathed [there], —according to the word of Yahweh which he had spoken.
39 アハブの其餘の行爲と凡て其爲たる事と其建たる象牙の家と其建たる諸の邑はイスラエルの王の歴代志の書に記載るにあらずや
Now, the rest of the story of Ahab, and all that he did, and the house of ivory that he built, and all the cities that he built, are, they, not written in the book of the Chronicles of the kings of Israel?
40 アハブ其父祖と共に寝りて其子アハジア之にかはりて王となれり
So Ahab slept with his fathers, —and, Ahaziah his son, reigned, in his stead.
41 アサの子ヨシヤパテ、イスラエルの王アハブの第四年にユダの王となれり
Now, Jehoshaphat son of Asa, began to reign over Judah, —in the fourth year of Ahab, king of Israel.
42 ヨシヤパテ王となりし時三十五歳なりしがエルサレムにおいて二十五年王たりき其母の名はアズバといひてシルヒの女なり
Jehoshaphat, was thirty-five years old when he began to reign, and, twenty-five years, reigned he in Jerusalem, —and, the name of his mother, was Azubah, daughter of Shilhi.
43 ヨシヤパテ其父アサの諸の道に歩行み轉て之を離れずヱホバの目に適ふ事をなせり但し崇邱は除かざりき民尚崇邱に犠牲を献げ香を焚り
And he walked in all the way of Asa his father, he turned not aside therefrom, —doing that which was right in the eyes of Yahweh: nevertheless, the high places, were not taken away, —still were the people offering sacrifices and burning incense in the high places.
44 ヨシヤパテ、イスラエルの王と和好を結べり
And Jehoshaphat made peace with the king of Israel.
45 ヨシヤパテの其餘の行爲と其なせる功績および如何に戰爭をなせしかはユダの王の歴代志の書に記載るにあらずや
Now, the rest of the story of Jehoshaphat, and his might that he shewed, and how he warred, are, they, not written in the book of the Chronicles of the kings of Judah?
46 彼其父アサの世に尚ほありし彼の男色を行ふ者の殘餘を國の中より逐はらへり
Moreover, the rest of the male devotees who remained in the days of Asa his father, he consumed out of the land.
47 當時エドムには王なくして代官王たりき
And, king, was there none in Edom, a prefect, was king.
48 ヨシヤパテ、タルシシの船を造りて金を取ためにオフルに往しめんとしたりしが其船エジオンゲベルに壞れたれば遂に往に至らざりき
Jehoshaphat, made ships of Tarshish, to go to Ophir, for gold; but they went not, —for ships had been broken to pieces in Ezion-geber.
49 是においてアハブの子アハジア、ヨシヤパテに言けるはわが僕をして爾の僕と偕に船にて往しめよと然どヨシヤパテ聽ざりき
Then, said Ahaziah son of Ahab, unto Jehoshaphat, Let, my servants, go with, thy servants, in the ships, —but Jehoshaphat did not consent.
50 ヨシヤパテ其父祖とともに寝りて其父ダビデの城邑に其父祖と共に葬らる其子ヨラム之に代て王となれり
So Jehoshaphat slept with his fathers, and was buried with his fathers, in the city of David his father, —and, Jehoram his son, reigned, in his stead.
51 アハブの子アハジア、ユダの王ヨシヤパテの第十七年にサマリアにてイスラエルの王となり二年イスラエルを治めたり
Ahaziah son of Ahab, began to reign over Israel, in Samaria, in the seventeenth year of Jehoshaphat king of Judah, —and reigned over Israel, two years.
52 彼はヱホバの目のまへに惡をなし其父の道と其母の道および彼のイスラエルに罪を犯させたるネバテの子ヤラベアムの道に歩行み
And he did the thing that was wicked in the eyes of Yahweh, —and went in the way of his father, and in the way of his mother, and in the way of Jeroboam son of Nebat, who caused, Israel, to sin.
53 バアルに事へて之を拝みイスラエルの神ヱホバの怒を激せり其父の凡て行へるがごとし
Yea he served Baal, and bowed down to him, —and provoked to anger Yahweh, God of Israel, according to all that his father had done.
