歴代誌Ⅱ 35

1 茲にヨシア、ヱルサレムにおいてヱホバに逾越節を行はんとし正月の十四日に逾越の物を宰らしめ

Moreouer Iosiah kept a Passeouer vnto the Lord in Ierusalem, and they slewe the Passeouer in the fourtenth day of the first moneth.

2 祭司をしてその職を執行はせ之を勵してヱホバの室の務をなさしめ

And he appointed the Priestes to their charges, and incouraged them to the seruice of the house of the Lord,

3 またヱホバの聖者となりてイスラエルの人衆を誨ふるレビ人に言ふ汝らイスラエルの王ダビデの子ソロモンが建たる家に聖契約の匱を放け再び肩に擔ふこと有ざるべし然ば今汝らの神ヱホバおよびその民イスラエルに事ふべし

And he sayd vnto the Leuites that taught all Israel and were sanctified vnto the Lord, Put the holy Arke in the house which Salomon the sonne of Dauid King of Israel did build: it shalbe no more a burden vpon your shoulders: serue now the Lord your God and his people Israel,

4 汝らまたイスラエルの王ダビデの書およびその子ソロモンの書に本づきて父祖の家に循がひその班列に依て自ら準備をなし

And prepare your selues by the houses of your fathers according to your courses, as Dauid the King of Israel hath written, and according to the writing of Salomon his sonne,

5 汝らの兄弟なる民の人々の宗家の區分に循ひて聖所に立ち之にレビ人の宗族の分缺ること無らしむべし

And stande in the Sanctuarie according to the deuision of the families of your brethren the children of the people, and after the deuision of the familie of the Leuites:

6 汝ら逾越の物を宰り身を潔め汝らの兄弟のために準備をなしモーセが傳へしヱホバの言のごとく行ふべしと

So kill the Passeouer and sanctifie your selues, and prepare your brethren that they may doe according to the worde of the Lord by the hand of Moses.

7 ヨシアすなはち羔羊および羔山羊を民の人々に餽る其數三萬また牡牛三千を餽る是みな王の所有の中より出して其處に居る一切の人のために逾越の祭物となせるなり

Iosiah also gaue to the people sheepe, lambs and kiddes, all for the Passeouer, euen to all that were present, to the nomber of thirtie thousand, and three thousande bullocks: these were of the Kings substance.

8 その牧伯等も民と祭司とレビ人に誠意より與ふる所ありまた神の室の長等ヒルキヤ、ゼカリヤ、ヱヒエルも綿羊二千六百牛三百を祭司に與へて逾越の祭物と爲す

And his princes offred willingly vnto the people, to the Priests and to the Leuites: Hilkiah, and Zechariah, and Iehiel, rulers of the house of God, gaue vnto the Priests for the Passeouer, euen two thousand and sixe hundreth sheepe, and three hundreth bullockes.

9 またレビ人の長たる人々すなはちコナニヤおよびその兄弟シマヤ、ネタンエル並にハシヤビヤ、ヱイエル、ヨザバデなども綿羊五千牛五百をレビ人に餽りて逾越の祭物となす

Conaniah also and Shemaiah and Nethaneel his brethren, and Hashabiah and Ieiel, and Iozabad, chiefe of the Leuites gaue vnto the Leuites for the Passeouer, fiue thousand sheepe, and fiue hundreth bullockes.

10 是のごとく献祭の事備はりぬれば王の命にしたがひて祭司等はその擔任場に立ちレビ人はその班列に循がひ居り

Thus the seruice was prepared, and the Priests stoode in their places, also the Leuites in their orders, according to the Kings commandement:

11 やがて逾越の物を宰りければ祭司その血をこれが手より受て洒げりレビ人その皮を剥り

And they slewe the Passeouer, and the Priests sprinkled the blood with their handes, and the Leuites flayed them.

12 かくて燔祭の物を移して民の人々の父祖の家の區分に付してヱホバに献げしむモーセの書に記されたるが如し其牛に行ふところも亦是のごとし

And they tooke away from the burnt offering to giue it according to the deuisions of the families of the children of the people, to offer vnto the Lord, as it is written in the booke of Moses, and so of the bullockes.

13 而して例規のごとくに逾越の物を火にて炙りその他の聖物を鍋釜鼎などに烹て一切の民の人々に奔配れり

And they rosted the Passeouer with fire, according to ye custome, but the sanctified things they sod in pots, pannes, and cauldrons, and distributed them quickely to all the people.

14 かくて後かれら自身のためと祭司等のために備ふ其はアロンの子孫たる祭司等は燔祭と脂を献げて夜に入たればなり是に因て斯レビ人自分のためとアロンの子孫たる祭司等のために備ふるなり

Afterwarde also they prepared for them selues and for the Priestes: for the Priestes the sonnes of Aaron were occupied in offering of burnt offrings, and the fat vntill night: therefore the Leuites prepared for them selues, and for the Priests the sonnes of Aaron.

15 アサフの子孫たる謳歌者等はダビデ、アサフ、ヘマンおよび王の先見者ヱドトンの命にしたがひてその擔任場に居り門を守る者等は門々に居てその職務を離るるに及ばざりき其はその兄弟たるレビ人これがために備へたればなり

And the singers the sonnes of Asaph stoode in their standing according to the commandement of Dauid, and Asaph, and Heman, and Ieduthun the Kings Seer: and the porters at euery gate, who might not depart from their seruice: therefore their brethren the Leuites prepared for them.

16 斯のごとく其日ヱホバの献祭の事ことごとく備はりければヨシア王の命にしたがひて逾越節を行ひヱホバの壇に燔祭を献げたり

So all the seruice of the Lord was prepared the same day, to keepe the Passeouer, and to offer burnt offerings vpon the altar of the Lord, according to the commandement of King Iosiah.

17 即ち其處に來れるイスラエルの子孫その時逾越節を行ひ七日の間酵いれぬパンの節を行へり

And the children of Israel that were present, kept the Passeouer the same time, and the feast of the vnleauened bread seuen dayes.

18 預言者サムエルの日より以來イスラエルにて是のごとくに逾越節を行ひし事なし又イスラエルの諸王の中にはヨシアが祭司レビ人ならびに來りあつまれるユダとイスラエルの諸人およびヱルサレムの民とともに行ひし如き逾越節を行ひし者一人もあらず

And there was no Passeouer kept like that, in Israel, from the dayes of Samuel the Prophet: neyther did all the Kings of Israel keepe such a Passeouer as Iosiah kept, and the Priestes and the Leuites, and all Iudah, and Israel that were present, and the inhabitants of Ierusalem.

19 この逾越節はヨシアの治世の十八年に行ひしなり

This Passeouer was kept in the eighteenth yeere of the reigne of Iosiah.

20 是のごとくヨシア殿をととのへし後エジプトの王ネコ、ユフラテの邊なるカルケミシを攻撃んとて上り來りけるにヨシアこれを禦がんとて出往り

After all this, when Iosiah had prepared the Temple, Necho King of Egypt came vp to fight against Carchemish by Perath, and Iosiah went out against him.

21 是においてネコ使者をかれに遣はして言ふユダの王よ是あに汝の與る所ならんや今日は汝を攻んとには非ず我敵の家を攻んとするなり神われに命じて急がしむ神われとともにあり汝神に逆ふことを罷よ恐らくは彼なんぢを滅ぼしたまはんと

But he sent messengers to him, saying, What haue I to doe with thee, thou King of Iudah? I come not against thee this day, but against the house of mine enemie, and God commanded me to make haste: leaue of to come against God, which is with me, least he destroy thee.

22 然るにヨシア面を轉して去ことを肯はず却てこれと戰はんとて服装を變へ神の口より出しネコの言を聽いれずしてメギドンの谷に到りて戰ひけるが

But Iosiah would not turne his face from him, but changed his apparel to fight with him, and hearkened not vnto the wordes of Necho, which were of the mouth of God, but came to fight in the valley of Megiddo.

23 射手の者等ヨシア王に射中たれば王その臣僕にむかひて我を扶け出せ我太痍を負ふと言り

And the shooters shot at king Iosiah: then the King saide to his seruants, Cary me away, for I am very sicke.

24 是においてその臣僕等かれをその車より扶けおろし其引せたる次の車に乗てヱルサレムにつれゆきけるが遂に死たればその先祖の墓にこれを葬りぬユダとヱルサレムみなヨシアのために哀しめり

So his seruants tooke him out of that charet, and put him in the seconde charet which he had, and when they had brought him to Ierusalem, he dyed, and was buryed in the sepulchres of his fathers: and all Iudah and Ierusalem mourned for Iosiah.

25 時にヱレミヤ、ヨシアのために哀歌を作れり謳歌男謳歌女今日にいたるまでその哀歌の中にヨシアの事を述べイスラエルの中に之を例となせりその詞は哀歌の中に書さる

And Ieremiah lamented Iosiah, and al singing men and singing women mourned for Iosiah in their lamentations to this day, and made the same for an ordinance vnto Israel: and beholde, they be written in the lamentations.

26 ヨシアのその餘の行爲そのヱホバの律法に録されたる所にしたがひて爲し徳行

Concerning the rest of the actes of Iosiah and his goodnesse, doing as it was written in the Lawe of the Lord,

27 およびその始終の行爲などはイスラエルとユダの列王の書に記さる

And his deedes, first and last, behold, they are written in the booke of the Kings of Israel and Iudah.
