| 21-1 |
Manasseh was twelve years old when he began to reign; and he reigned five and fifty years in Jerusalem: and his mother’s name was Hephzibah. |
マナセは十二歳で王となり、五十五年の間、エルサレムで世を治めた。母の名はヘフジバといった。 |
| 21-2 |
And he did that which was evil in the sight of Jehovah, after the abominations of the nations whom Jehovah cast out before the children of Israel. |
マナセは主がイスラエルの人々の前から追い払われた国々の民の憎むべきおこないにならって、主の目の前に悪をおこなった。 |
| 21-3 |
For he built again the high places which Hezekiah his father had destroyed; and he reared up altars for Baal, and made an Asherah, as did Ahab king of Israel, and worshipped all the host of heaven, and served them. |
彼は父ヒゼキヤがこわした高き所を建て直し、またイスラエルの王アハブがしたようにバアルのために祭壇を築き、アシラ像を造り、かつ天の万象を拝んで、これに仕えた。 |
| 21-4 |
And he built altars in the house of Jehovah, whereof Jehovah said, In Jerusalem will I put my name. |
また主の宮のうちに数個の祭壇を築いた。これは主が「わたしの名をエルサレムに置こう」と言われたその宮である。 |
| 21-5 |
And he built altars for all the host of heaven in the two courts of the house of Jehovah. |
彼はまた主の宮の二つの庭に天の万象のために祭壇を築いた。 |
| 21-6 |
And he made his son to pass through the fire, and practised augury, and used enchantments, and dealt with them that had familiar spirits, and with wizards: he wrought much evil in the sight of Jehovah, to provoke him to anger. |
またその子を火に焼いてささげ物とし、占いをし、魔術を行い、口寄せと魔法使を用い、主の目の前に多くの悪を行って、主の怒りを引き起した。 |
| 21-7 |
And he set the graven image of Asherah, that he had made, in the house of which Jehovah said to David and to Solomon his son, In this house, and in Jerusalem, which I have chosen out of all the tribes of Israel, will I put my name for ever; |
彼はまたアシラの彫像を作って主の宮に置いた。主はこの宮についてダビデとその子ソロモンに言われたことがある、「わたしはこの宮と、わたしがイスラエルのすべての部族のうちから選んだエルサレムとに、わたしの名を永遠に置く。 |
| 21-8 |
neither will I cause the feet of Israel to wander any more out of the land which I gave their fathers, if only they will observe to do according to all that I have commanded them, and according to all the law that my servant Moses commanded them. |
もし、彼らがわたしが命じたすべての事、およびわたしのしもべモーセが命じたすべての律法を守り行うならば、イスラエルの足を、わたしが彼らの先祖たちに与えた地から、重ねて迷い出させないであろう」。 |
| 21-9 |
But they hearkened not: and Manasseh seduced them to do that which is evil more than did the nations whom Jehovah destroyed before the children of Israel. |
しかし彼らは聞きいれなかった。マナセが人々をいざなって悪を行ったことは、主がイスラエルの人々の前に滅ぼされた国々の民よりもはなはだしかった。 |
| 21-10 |
And Jehovah spake by his servants the prophets, saying, |
そこで主はそのしもべである預言者たちによって言われた、 |
| 21-11 |
Because Manasseh king of Judah hath done these abominations, and hath done wickedly above all that the Amorites did, that were before him, and hath made Judah also to sin with his idols; |
「ユダの王マナセがこれらの憎むべき事を行い、彼の先にあったアモリびとの行ったすべての事よりも悪い事を行い、またその偶像をもってユダに罪を犯させたので、 |
| 21-12 |
therefore thus saith Jehovah, the God of Israel, Behold, I bring such evil upon Jerusalem and Judah, that whosoever heareth of it, both his ears shall tingle. |
イスラエルの神、主はこう仰せられる、見よ、わたしはエルサレムとユダに災をくだそうとしている。これを聞く者は、その耳が二つながら鳴るであろう。 |
| 21-13 |
And I will stretch over Jerusalem the line of Samaria, and the plummet of the house of Ahab; and I will wipe Jerusalem as a man wipeth a dish, wiping it and turning it upside down. |
わたしはサマリヤをはかった測りなわと、アハブの家に用いた下げ振りをエルサレムにほどこし、人が皿をぬぐい、これをぬぐって伏せるように、エルサレムをぬぐい去る。 |
| 21-14 |
And I will cast off the remnant of mine inheritance, and deliver them into the hand of their enemies; and they shall become a prey and a spoil to all their enemies; |
わたしは、わたしの嗣業の民の残りを捨て、彼らを敵の手に渡す。彼らはもろもろの敵のえじきとなり、略奪にあうであろう。 |
| 21-15 |
because they have done that which is evil in my sight, and have provoked me to anger, since the day their fathers came forth out of Egypt, even unto this day. |
これは彼らの先祖たちがエジプトを出た日から今日に至るまで、彼らがわたしの目の前に悪を行って、わたしを怒らせたためである」。 |
| 21-16 |
Moreover Manasseh shed innocent blood very much, till he had filled Jerusalem from one end to another; besides his sin wherewith he made Judah to sin, in doing that which was evil in the sight of Jehovah. |
マナセはまた主の目の前に悪を行って、ユダに罪を犯させたその罪のほかに、罪なき者の血を多く流して、エルサレムのこの果から、かの果にまで満たした。 |
| 21-17 |
Now the rest of the acts of Manasseh, and all that he did, and his sin that he sinned, are they not written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Judah? |
マナセのその他の事績と、彼がおこなったすべての事およびその犯した罪は、ユダの王の歴代志の書にしるされているではないか。 |
| 21-18 |
And Manasseh slept with his fathers, and was buried in the garden of his own house, in the garden of Uzza: and Amon his son reigned in his stead. |
マナセは先祖たちと共に眠って、その家の園すなわちウザの園に葬られ、その子アモンが代って王となった。 |
| 21-19 |
Amon was twenty and two years old when he began to reign; and he reigned two years in Jerusalem: and his mother’s name was Meshullemeth the daughter of Haruz of Jotbah. |
アモンは王となった時二十二歳であって、エルサレムで二年の間、世を治めた。母はヨテバのハルツの娘で、名をメシュレメテといった。 |
| 21-20 |
And he did that which was evil in the sight of Jehovah, as did Manasseh his father. |
アモンはその父マナセのおこなったように、主の目の前に悪を行った。 |
| 21-21 |
And he walked in all the way that his father walked in, and served the idols that his father served, and worshipped them: |
すなわち彼はすべてその父の歩んだ道に歩み、父の仕えた偶像に仕えて、これを拝み、 |
| 21-22 |
and he forsook Jehovah, the God of his fathers, and walked not in the way of Jehovah. |
先祖たちの神、主を捨てて、主の道に歩まなかった。 |
| 21-23 |
And the servants of Amon conspired against him, and put the king to death in his own house. |
アモンの家来たちはついに彼に敵して徒党を結び、王をその家で殺したが、 |
| 21-24 |
But the people of the land slew all them that had conspired against king Amon; and the people of the land made Josiah his son king in his stead. |
国の民は、アモン王に敵して徒党を結んだ者をことごとく撃ち殺した。そして国の民はアモンの子ヨシヤを王としてアモンに代らせた。 |
| 21-25 |
Now the rest of the acts of Amon which he did, are they not written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Judah? |
アモンのその他の事績は、ユダの王の歴代志の書にしるされているではないか。 |
| 21-26 |
And he was buried in his sepulchre in the garden of Uzza: and Josiah his son reigned in his stead. |
アモンはウザの園にある墓に葬られ、その子ヨシヤが代って王となった。 |
