列王記Ⅱ 24
1 ヱホヤキムの代にバビロンの王ネブカデネザル上り來りければヱホヤキムこれに臣服して三年をへたりしが遂にひるがへりて之に叛けり
In his days went up Nabuchodonosor king of Babylon, and Joakim became his servant three years; and [then] he turned and revolted from him.
2 ヱホバ、カルデヤの軍兵スリアの軍兵モアブの軍兵アンモンの軍兵をしてヱホヤキムの所に攻きたらしめたまへり即ちユダを滅さんがためにこれをユダに遣はしたまふヱホバがその僕なる預言者等によりて言たまひし言語のごとし
And the lord sent against him the bands of the Chaldeans, and the bands of Syria, and the bans of Moab, and the bands of the children of Ammon, and sent them into the land of Juda to prevail [against it], according to the word of the Lord, which he spoke by his servants the prophets.
3 この事は全くヱホバの命によりてユダにのぞみし者にてユダをヱホバの目の前より拂ひ除かんがためなりき是はマナセがその凡てなす所において罪を犯したるにより
Moreover it was the purpose of the Lord concerning Juda, to remove them from his presence, because of the sins of Manasses, according to all that he did.
4 また無辜人の血をながし無辜人の血をヱルサレムに充したるによりてなりヱホバはその罪を赦すことをなしたまはざりき
Moreover he shed innocent blood, and filled Jerusalem with innocent blood, and the Lord would not pardon [it].
5 ヱホヤキムのその餘の行爲とその凡て爲たる事はユダの王の歴代志の書にしるさるるにあらずや
And the rest of the acts of Joakim, and all that he did, behold, [are] not these written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Juda?
6 ヱホヤキムその先祖等とともに寝りその子ヱコニアこれに代りて王となれり
And Joakim slept with his fathers: and Joachim his son reigned in his stead.
7 却説またエジプトの王は重てその國より出きたらざりき其はバビロンの王エジプトの河よりユフラテ河まで凡てエジプトの王に屬する者を悉く取たればなり
And the king of Egypt came no more out of his land: for the king of Babylon took away all that belonged to the king of Egypt from the river of Egypt as far as the river Euphrates.
8 ヱコニアは王となれる時十八歳にしてヱルサレムにて三月世を治めたりその母はヱルサレムのエルナタンの女にして名をネホシタと云ふ
Eighteen years old [was] Joachim when he began to reign, an he reigned three months in Jerusalem: and his mother's name [was] Nestha, daughter of Ellanastham, of Jerusalem.
9 ヱコニアはその父の凡てなしたるごとくにヱホバの目の前に惡をなせり
And he did that which was evil in the sight of the Lord, according to all that his father did.
10 その頃バビロンの王ネブカデネザルの臣ヱルサレムに攻のぼりて邑を圍めり
At that time went up Nabuchodonosor king of Babylon to Jerusalem, and the city was besieged.
11 即ちバビロンの王ネブカデネザル邑に攻來りてその臣にこれを攻惱さしめたれば
And Nabuchodonosor king of Babylon came against the city, and his servants besieged it.
12 ユダの王ヱコニアその母その臣その牧伯等およびその侍從等とともに出てバビロンの王に降れりバビロンの王すなはち彼を執ふ是はその代の八年にあたれり
And Joachim king of Juda came forth to the king of Babylon, he and his servants, and his mother, and his princes, and his eunuchs; and the king of Babylon took him in the eighth year of his reign.
13 而して彼ヱホバの家の諸の寶物および王の家の寶物を其處より携へ去りイスラルの王ソロモンがヱホバの宮に造りたる諸の金の器を切はがせりヱホバの言たまひしごとし
And he brought forth thence all the treasures of the house of the Lord, and the treasures of the king's house, and he cut up all the golden vessels which Solomon the king of Israel [had] made in the temple of the Lord, according to the word of the Lord.
14 彼またヱルサレムの一切の民および一切の牧伯等と一切の大なる能力ある者ならびに工匠と鍛冶とを一萬人擄へゆけり遺れる者は國の民の賤き者のみなりき
And he carried away [the inhabitants of] Jerusalem, and all the captains, and the mighty men, taking captive ten thousand prisoners, and every artificer and smith: and only the poor of the land were left.
15 彼すなはちヱコニアをバビロンに擄へゆきまた王の母王の妻等および侍從と國の中の能力ある者をもエルサレムよりバビロンに擄へうつせり
And he carried Joachim away to Babylon, and the king's mother, and the king's wives, and his eunuchs: and he carried away the mighty men of the land into captivity from Jerusalem to Babylon.
16 凡て能力ある者七千人工匠と鍛冶一千人ならびに強壯して善戰ふ者是等をバビロンの王擄へてバビロンにうつせり
And all the men of might, even seven thousand, and one thousand artificers and smiths: all [were] mighty [men] fit for war; and the king of Babylon carried them captive to Babylon.
17 而してバビロンの王またヱコニアの父の兄弟マツタニヤを王となしてヱコニアに代へ其が名をゼデキヤと改めたり
And the king of Babylon made Batthanias his son king in his stead, and called his name Sedekias.
18 ゼデキヤは二十一歳にして王となりヱルサレムにて十一年世を治めたりその母はリブナのヱレミヤの女にして名をハムタルと曰ふ
Twenty and one years old [was] Sedekias when he began to reign, and he reigned eleven years in Jerusalem: and his mother's name [was] Amital daughter of Jeremias.
19 ゼデキヤはエホヤキムが凡てなしたるごとくにヱホバの目の前に惡をなせり
And he did that which was evil in the sight of the Lord, according to all that Joachim did.
20 ヱルサレムとユダに斯る事ありしはヱホバの震怒による者にしてヱホバつひにその人々を自己の前よりはらひ棄たまへり偖またゼデキヤはバビロンの王に叛けり
For it was according to the Lord's anger against Jerusalem and on Juda, until he cast them out of his presence, that Sedekias revolted against the king of Babylon.
