52-1 Zedekiah was one and twenty years old when he began to reign; and he reigned eleven years in Jerusalem: and his mother’s name was Hamutal the daughter of Jeremiah of Libnah. ゼデキヤは王となったとき二十一歳であったが、エルサレムで十一年世を治めた。母の名はハムタルといい、リブナのエレミヤの娘である。
52-2 And he did that which was evil in the sight of Jehovah, according to all that Jehoiakim had done. ゼデキヤはエホヤキムがすべて行ったように、主の目の前に悪事を行った。
52-3 For through the anger of Jehovah did it come to pass in Jerusalem and Judah, until he had cast them out from his presence. And Zedekiah rebelled against the king of Babylon. たしかに、主の怒りによって、エルサレムとユダとは、そのみ前から捨て去られるようなことになった。そしてゼデキヤはバビロンの王にそむいた。
52-4 And it came to pass in the ninth year of his reign, in the tenth month, in the tenth day of the month, that Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon came, he and all his army, against Jerusalem, and encamped against it; and they built forts against it round about. そこで彼の治世の九年十月十日に、バビロンの王ネブカデレザルはその軍勢を率い、エルサレムにきて、これを包囲し、周囲に塁を築いてこれを攻めた。
52-5 So the city was besieged unto the eleventh year of king Zedekiah. こうしてこの町は攻め囲まれて、ゼデキヤ王の十一年にまで及んだが、
52-6 In the fourth month, in the ninth day of the month, the famine was sore in the city, so that there was no bread for the people of the land. その四月九日になって、町の中の食糧は、はなはだしく欠乏し、その地の民は食物を得ることができなくなった。
52-7 Then a breach was made in the city, and all the men of war fled, and went forth out of the city by night by the way of the gate between the two walls, which was by the king’s garden; (now the Chaldeans were against the city round about;) and they went toward the Arabah. そして町の城壁はついに打ち破られたので、兵士たちはみな逃げ、夜のうちに、王の園の近くの、二つの城壁の間の門から町をのがれ出て、カルデヤびとが、町を攻め囲んでいるうちに、アラバの方へ落ちて行った。
52-8 But the army of the Chaldeans pursued after the king, and overtook Zedekiah in the plains of Jericho; and all his army was scattered from him. しかしカルデヤびとの軍勢は王を追って行って、エリコの平地でゼデキヤに追いついたが、彼の軍勢がみな散って彼のそばを離れたので、
52-9 Then they took the king, and carried him up unto the king of Babylon to Riblah in the land of Hamath; and he gave judgment upon him. カルデヤびとは王を捕え、ハマテの地のリブラにいるバビロンの王のもとに引いていったので、王は彼の罪を定めた。
52-10 And the king of Babylon slew the sons of Zedekiah before his eyes: he slew also all the princes of Judah in Riblah. すなわちバビロンの王はゼデキヤの子たちをその目の前で殺させ、ユダのつかさたちをことごとくリブラで殺させ、
52-11 And he put out the eyes of Zedekiah; and the king of Babylon bound him in fetters, and carried him to Babylon, and put him in prison till the day of his death. またゼデキヤの目をつぶさせた。そしてバビロンの王は彼を鎖につないでバビロンへ連れて行き、その死ぬ日まで獄屋に入れて置いた。
52-12 Now in the fifth month, in the tenth day of the month, which was the nineteenth year of king Nebuchadrezzar, king of Babylon, came Nebuzaradan the captain of the guard, who stood before the king of Babylon, into Jerusalem: 五月十日に、――それはバビロンの王ネブカデレザルの世の十九年であった――バビロンの王に仕える侍衛の長ネブザラダンはエルサレムに、はいって、
52-13 and he burned the house of Jehovah, and the king’s house; and all the houses of Jerusalem, even every great house, burned he with fire. 主の宮と王の宮殿を焼き、エルサレムのすべての家を焼いた。彼は大きな家をみな焼きはらった。
52-14 And all the army of the Chaldeans, that were with the captain of the guard, brake down all the walls of Jerusalem round about. また侍衛の長と共にいたカルデヤびとの軍勢は、エルサレムの周囲の城壁をみな取りこわした。
52-15 Then Nebuzaradan the captain of the guard carried away captive of the poorest of the people, and the residue of the people that were left in the city, and those that fell away, that fell to the king of Babylon, and the residue of the multitude. そして侍衛の長ネブザラダンは民のうちの最も貧しい者若干、そのほか町のうちに残った者、およびバビロンの王にくだった人、その他工匠たちを捕え移した。
52-16 But Nebuzaradan the captain of the guard left of the poorest of the land to be vinedressers and husbandmen. しかし侍衛の長ネブザラダンはその地の最も貧しい者若干を残して、ぶどうを作る者とし、農夫とした。
52-17 And the pillars of brass that were in the house of Jehovah, and the bases and the brazen sea that were in the house of Jehovah, did the Chaldeans break in pieces, and carried all the brass of them to Babylon. カルデヤびとはまた主の宮の青銅の柱と、洗盤の台と、青銅の海を砕いて、その青銅をことごとくバビロンへ運び、
52-18 The pots also, and the shovels, and the snuffers, and the basins, and the spoons, and all the vessels of brass wherewith they ministered, took they away. また、つぼと、十能と、心切りばさみと、鉢と、香を盛る皿および宮の勤めに用いる青銅の器をことごとく取って行った。
52-19 And the cups, and the firepans, and the basins, and the pots, and the candlesticks, and the spoons, and the bowls?that which was of gold, in gold, and that which was of silver, in silver,? the captain of the guard took away. また彼らは小鉢と、心取り皿と、鉢と、つぼと、燭台と、香を盛る皿と、灌祭の鉢を取った。金で作った物は金として、銀で作った物は銀として、侍衛の長は運び去った。
52-20 The two pillars, the one sea, and the twelve brazen bulls that were under the bases, which king Solomon had made for the house of Jehovah?the brass of all these vessels was without weight. ソロモン王が主の宮に造った二本の柱と、一つの海と、海の下の十二の青銅の牛と、台など、このすべての物の青銅の重さは量ることもできなかった。
52-21 And as for the pillars, the height of the one pillar was eighteen cubits; and a line of twelve cubits did compass it; and the thickness thereof was four fingers: it was hollow. この一本の柱の高さは十八キュビト、周囲は十二キュビトで、指四本の厚さがあり、中は、うつろであった。
52-22 And a capital of brass was upon it; and the height of the one capital was five cubits, with network and pomegranates upon the capital round about, all of brass: and the second pillar also had like unto these, and pomegranates. その上に青銅の柱頭があり、柱頭の高さは五キュビト、柱頭の周囲は網細工と、ざくろとで飾り、これらもみな青銅であった。他の柱もそのざくろも、これと同じであった。
52-23 And there were ninety and six pomegranates on the sides; all the pomegranates were a hundred upon the network round about. その四方に九十六個のざくろがあり、周囲の網細工の上にあるざくろの数は百個であった。
52-24 And the captain of the guard took Seraiah the chief priest, and Zephaniah the second priest, and the three keepers of the threshold: 侍衛の長は祭司長セラヤと次席の祭司ゼパニヤと三人の門を守る者を捕え、
52-25 and out of the city he took an officer that was set over the men of war; and seven men of them that saw the king’s face, that were found in the city; and the scribe of the captain of the host, who mustered the people of the land; and threescore men of the people of the land, that were found in the midst of the city. また兵士をつかさどるひとりの役人と、町にいた王の側近の者七人と、その地の民を募る軍勢の長の書記官と、町の中にいた六十人の者を町から捕え去った。
52-26 And Nebuzaradan the captain of the guard took them, and brought them to the king of Babylon to Riblah. 侍衛の長ネブザラダンは、これらの人を捕えて、リブラにいるバビロンの王のもとに連れて行った。
52-27 And the king of Babylon smote them, and put them to death at Riblah in the land of Hamath. So Judah was carried away captive out of his land. バビロンの王は、ハマテの地のリブラで彼らを撃ち殺した。こうして、ユダは自分の地から捕え移された。
52-28 This is the people whom Nebuchadrezzar carried away captive: in the seventh year three thousand Jews and three and twenty; ネブカデレザルが捕え移した民の数は次のとおりである。第七年にはユダヤ人三千二十三人。
52-29 in the eighteenth year of Nebuchadrezzar he carried away captive from Jerusalem eight hundred thirty and two persons; またネブカデレザルはその第十八年にエルサレムから八百三十二人を捕え移した。
52-30 in the three and twentieth year of Nebuchadrezzar Nebuzaradan the captain of the guard carried away captive of the Jews seven hundred forty and five persons: all the persons were four thousand and six hundred. ネブカデレザルの二十三年に侍衛の長ネブザラダンは、ユダヤ人七百四十五人を捕え移した。この総数は四千六百人であった。
52-31 And it came to pass in the seven and thirtieth year of the captivity of Jehoiachin king of Judah, in the twelfth month, in the five and twentieth day of the month, that Evil-merodach king of Babylon, in the first year of his reign, lifted up the head of Jehoiachin king of Judah, and brought him forth out of prison; ユダの王エホヤキンが捕え移されて後三十七年の十二月二十五日に、バビロンの王エビルメロダクはその即位の年に、ユダの王エホヤキンを獄屋から出し、そのこうべを挙げさせ、
52-32 and he spake kindly to him, and set his throne above the throne of the kings that were with him in Babylon, 親切に彼を慰め、その位を、バビロンで共にいる王たちの位よりも高くした。
52-33 and changed his prison garments. And Jehoiachin did eat bread before him continually all the days of his life: こうしてエホヤキンは獄屋の服を脱いだ。そして生きている間は毎日王の食卓で食事し、
52-34 34 and for his allowance, there was a continual allowance given him by the king of Babylon, every day a portion until the day of his death, all the days of his life. 彼の給与としては、その死ぬ日まで一生の間、たえず日々の必要にしたがって、バビロンの王から給与を賜わった。
