< 列王記Ⅱ 14 >

1 イスラエルの王ヨアハズの子ヨアシの二年にユダの王ヨアシの子アマジヤ王となれり
In the second year of Jehoash son of Jehoahaz, king of Israel, Amaziah son of Joash, king of Judah, began to reign.
2 彼は王となれる時二十五歳にして二十九年の間エルサレムにて世を治めたりその母はエルサレムの者にして名をヱホアダンと云り
He was twenty-five years old when he began to reign; he reigned twenty-nine years in Jerusalem. His mother's name was Jehoaddan, of Jerusalem.
3 アマジヤはヱホバの善と見たまふ事をなしたりしがその先祖ダビデのごとくはあらざりき彼は萬の事において其父ヨアシがなせしごとくに事をなせり
He did what was right in the eyes of Yahweh, yet not like David his father. He did everything that Joash, his father, had done.
4 惟崇邱はのぞかずしてあり民はなほその崇邱において犠牲をささげ香を焚り
But the high places were not taken away. The people still sacrificed and burned incense at the high places.
5 彼は國のその手に堅くたつにおよびてその父王を弑せし臣僕等を殺したりしが
It came about that as soon as his rule was well established, he killed the servants who had murdered his father, the king.
6 その弑殺人の子女等は殺さざりき是はモーセの律法の書に記されたる所にしたがへるなり即ちヱホバ命じて言たまはく子女の故によりて父を殺すべからず父の故によりて子女を殺すべからず人はみなその身の罪によりて死べき者なりと
Yet he did not put the sons of the murderers to death; instead, he acted according to what was written in the Book of the Law Moses, as Yahweh had commanded, saying, “The fathers must not be put to death for their children, neither must the children be put to death for their parents. Instead, every person must be put to death for his own sin.”
7 アマジヤまた鹽谷においてエドミ人一萬を殺せり亦セラを攻とりてその名をヨクテルとなづけしが今日まで然り
He killed ten thousand soldiers of Edom in the Valley of Salt; he also took Sela in war and called it Joktheel, which is what it is called to this day.
8 かくてアマジヤ使者をヱヒウの子ヨアハズの子なるイスラエルの王ヨアシにおくりて來れ我儕たがひに面をあはせんと言しめければ
Then Amaziah sent messengers to Jehoash son of Jehoahaz son of Jehu king of Israel, saying, “Come, let us meet each other face to face in battle.”
9 イスラエルの王ヨアシ、ユダの王アマジヤに言おくりけるはレバノンの荊棘かつてレバノンの香柏に汝の女子をわが子の妻にあたへよと言おくりたることありしにレバノンの野獣とほりてその荊棘を踏たふせり
But Jehoash the king of Israel sent messengers back to Amaziah king of Judah, saying, “A thistle that was in Lebanon sent a message to a cedar in Lebanon, saying, 'Give your daughter to my son for a wife,' but a wild beast in Lebanon walked by and trampled down the thistle.
10 汝は大にエドムに勝たれば心に誇るその榮譽にやすんじて家に居れなんぞ禍を惹おこして自己もユダもともに亡んとするやと
You have indeed attacked Edom, and your heart has lifted you up. Take pride in your victory, but stay at home, for why should you cause yourself trouble and fall, both you and Judah with you?”
11 然るにアマジヤ聽ことをせざりしかばイスラエルの王ヨアシのぼり來れり是において彼とユダの王アマジヤはユダのベテシメシにてたがひに面をあはせたりしが
But Amaziah would not listen. So Jehoash king of Israel attacked and he and Amaziah king of Judah met each other face to face at Beth Shemesh, which belongs to Judah.
12 ユダ、イスラエルに敗られて各人その天幕に逃かへりぬ
Judah was defeated by Israel, and every man fled home.
13 是においてイスラエルの王ヨアシはアジアの子ヨアシの子なるユダの王アマジヤをベテシメシに擒へ而してエルサレムにいたりてエルサレムの石垣をエフライムの門より隅の門まで凡そ四百キユビトを毀ち
Jehoash king of Israel, captured Amaziah, king of Judah son of Jehoash son of Ahaziah, at Beth Shemesh. He came to Jerusalem and tore down the wall of Jerusalem from the Ephraim Gate to the Corner Gate, four hundred cubits in distance.
14 またヱホバの家と王の家の庫とにあるところの金銀および諸の器をとりかつ人質をとりてサマリヤにかへれり
He took all the gold and silver, all the objects that were found in the house of Yahweh, and the valuable things in the king's palace, with hostages also, and returned to Samaria.
15 ヨアシがなしたるその餘の行爲とその能およびそのイスラエルの王アマジヤと戰ひし事はイスラエルの王の歴代志の書にしるさるるにあらずや
As for the other matters concerning Jehoash, all that he did, his power, and how he fought with Amaziah king of Judah, are they not written in the book of the events of the kings of Israel?
16 ヨアシその先祖等とともに寝りてイスラエルの王等とともにサマリヤに葬られその子ヤラベアムこれに代りて王となれり
Then Jehoash slept with his ancestors and was buried in Samaria with the kings of Israel, and Jeroboam, his son, became king in his place.
17 ヨアシの子なるユダの王アマジヤはヨアハズの子なるイスラエルの王ヨアシの死てより後なほ十五年生存へたり
Amaziah son of Joash, king of Judah, lived fifteen years after the death of Jehoash son of Jehoahaz, king of Israel.
18 アマジヤのその餘の行爲はユダの王の歴代志の書にしるさるるにあらずや
As for the other matters concerning Amaziah, are they not written in the book of the events of the kings of Judah?
19 茲にエルサレムにおいて黨をむすびて彼に敵する者ありければ彼ラキシに逃ゆきけるにその人々ラキシに人をやりて彼を彼處に殺さしめたり
They made a conspiracy against Amaziah in Jerusalem, and he fled to Lachish. He fled to Lachish, but they sent men after him to Lachish and killed him there.
20 人衆かれを馬に負せてもちきたりエルサレムにおいてこれをその先祖等とともにダビデの邑に葬りぬ
They brought him back on horses, and he was buried with his ancestors in the city of David.
21 ユダの民みなアザリヤをとりて王となしてその父アマジヤに代しめたり時に年十六なりき
All the people of Judah took Azariah, who was sixteen years old, and made him king in place of his father Amaziah.
22 彼エラテの邑を建てこれを再びユダに歸せしめたり是はかの王がその先祖等とともに寝りし後なりき
It was Azariah who rebuilt Elath and restored it to Judah, after King Amaziah slept with his ancestors.
23 ユダの王ヨアシの子アマジヤの十五年にイスラエルの王ヨアシの子ヤラベアム、サマリヤにおいて王となり四十一年位にありき
In the fifteenth year of Amaziah son of Joash king of Judah, Jeroboam son of Jehoash king of Israel began to reign in Samaria; he reigned forty-one years.
24 彼はヱホバの目の前に惡をなし夫のイスラエルに罪を犯さしめたるネバテの子ヤラベアムの罪に離れざりき
He did what was evil in the sight of Yahweh. He did not depart from any of the sins of Jeroboam son of Nebat, who had caused Israel to sin.
25 彼ハマテの入處よりアラバの海までイスラエルの邊境を恢復せりイスラエルの神ヱホバがガテヘペルのアミツタイの子なるその僕預言者ヨナによりて言たまひし言のごとし
He restored the border of Israel from Lebo Hamath to the Sea of the Arabah, following the commands of the word of Yahweh, the God of Israel, which he had spoken through his servant Jonah son of Amittai, the prophet, who was from Gath Hepher.
26 ヱホバ、イスラエルの艱難を見たまふに其は甚だ苦かり即ち繋れたる者もあらず繋れざる者もあらず又イスラエルを助る者もあらず
For Yahweh saw the suffering of Israel, that it was very bitter for everyone, both slave and free, and that there was no rescuer for Israel.
27 ヱホバは我イスラエルの名を天下に塗抹んとすと言たまひしこと無し反てヨアシの子ヤラベアムの手をもてこれを拯ひたまへり
So Yahweh said that he would not blot out the name of Israel under heaven; instead, he saved them by the hand of Jeroboam son of Jehoash.
28 ヤラベアムのその餘の行爲とその凡てなしたる事およびその戰爭をなせし能その昔にユダに屬し居たることありしダマスコとハマテを再びイスラエルに歸せしめたる事はイスラエルの王の歴代志の書に記さるるにあらずや
As for the other matters concerning Jeroboam, all that he did, his power, how he waged war and recovered Damascus and Hamath, which had belonged to Judah, for Israel, are they not written in the book of the events of the kings of Israel?
29 ヤラベアムその先祖たるイスラエルの王等とともに寝りその子ザカリヤこれに代りて王となれり
Jeroboam slept with his ancestors, with the kings of Israel, and Zechariah his son became king in his place.
