< 列王記Ⅰ 11 >

1 ソロモン王パロの女の外に多の外國の婦を寵愛せり即ちモアブ人アンモニ人エドミ人シドン人ヘテ人の婦を寵愛せり
Now King Solomon loved many foreign women, together with the daughter of Pharaoh: women of the Moabites, Ammonites, Edomites, Sidonians, and Hittites,
2 ヱホバ曾て是等の國民についてイスラエルの子孫に言たまひけらく爾等は彼等と交るべからず彼等も亦爾等と交るべからず彼等必ず爾等の心を轉して彼等の神々に從はしめんとしかるにソロモン彼等を愛して離れざりき
of the nations concerning which the LORD said to the children of Israel, “You shall not go amongst them, neither shall they come amongst you, for surely they will turn away your heart after their gods.” Solomon joined to these in love.
3 彼妃公主七百人嬪三百人あり其妃等彼の心を轉せり
He had seven hundred wives, princesses, and three hundred concubines. His wives turned his heart away.
4 ソロモンの年老たる時妃等其心を轉移して他の神に從はしめければ彼の心其父ダビデの心の如く其神ヱホバに全からざりき
When Solomon was old, his wives turned away his heart after other gods; and his heart was not perfect with the LORD his God, as the heart of David his father was.
5 其はソロモン、シドン人の神アシタロテに從ひアンモニ人の惡むべき者なるモロクに從ひたればなり
For Solomon went after Ashtoreth the goddess of the Sidonians, and after Milcom the abomination of the Ammonites.
6 ソロモン斯ヱホバの目のまへに惡を行ひ其父ダビデの如く全くはヱホバに從はざりき
Solomon did that which was evil in the LORD’s sight, and didn’t go fully after the LORD, as David his father did.
7 爰にソロモン、モアブの憎むべき者なるケモシの爲又アンモンの子孫の憎むべき者なるモロクのためにエルサレムの前なる山に崇邱を築けり
Then Solomon built a high place for Chemosh the abomination of Moab, on the mountain that is before Jerusalem, and for Molech the abomination of the children of Ammon.
8 彼又其異邦の凡の妃の爲にも然せしかば彼等は香を焚て己々の神を祭れり
So he did for all his foreign wives, who burnt incense and sacrificed to their gods.
9 ソロモンの心轉りてイスラエルの神ヱホバを離れしによりてヱホバ彼を怒りたまふヱホバ嘗て兩次彼に顯れ
The LORD was angry with Solomon, because his heart was turned away from the LORD, the God of Israel, who had appeared to him twice,
10 此事に付て彼に他の神に從ふべからずと命じたまひけるに彼ヱホバの命じたまひし事を守らざりしなり
and had commanded him concerning this thing, that he should not go after other gods; but he didn’t keep that which the LORD commanded.
11 ヱホバ、ソロモンに言たまひけるは此事爾にありしに因り又汝わが契約とわが爾に命じたる法憲を守らざりしに因て我必ず爾より國を裂きはなして之を爾の臣僕に與ふべし
Therefore the LORD said to Solomon, “Because this is done by you, and you have not kept my covenant and my statutes, which I have commanded you, I will surely tear the kingdom from you, and will give it to your servant.
12 然ど爾の父ダビデの爲に爾の世には之を爲ざるべし我爾の子の手より之を裂きはなさん
Nevertheless, I will not do it in your days, for David your father’s sake; but I will tear it out of your son’s hand.
13 但し我は國を盡くは裂きはなさずしてわが僕ダビデのために又わが選みたるエルサレムのために一の支派を爾の子に與へんと
However, I will not tear away all the kingdom; but I will give one tribe to your son, for David my servant’s sake, and for Jerusalem’s sake which I have chosen.”
14 是に於てヱホバ、エドミ人ハダデを興してソロモンの敵と爲したまふ彼はエドム王の裔なり
The LORD raised up an adversary to Solomon: Hadad the Edomite. He was one of the king’s offspring in Edom.
15 曩にダビデ、エドムに事ありし時軍の長ヨアブ上りて其戰死せし者を葬りエドムの男を盡く撃殺しける時に方りて
For when David was in Edom, and Joab the captain of the army had gone up to bury the slain, and had struck every male in Edom
16 (ヨアブはエドムの男を盡く絶までイスラエルの群衆と偕に六月其處に止れり)
(for Joab and all Israel remained there six months, until he had cut off every male in Edom),
17 ハダデ其父の僕なる數人のエドミ人と共に逃てエジブトに往んとせり時にハダデは尚小童子なりき
Hadad fled, he and certain Edomites of his father’s servants with him, to go into Egypt, when Hadad was still a little child.
18 彼等ミデアンを起出てバランに至りパランより人を伴ひてエジプトに往きエジプトの王パロに詣るにバロ彼に家を與へ食糧を定め且土地を與へたり
They arose out of Midian and came to Paran; and they took men with them out of Paran, and they came to Egypt, to Pharaoh king of Egypt, who gave him a house, and appointed him food, and gave him land.
19 ハダデ大にパロの心にかなひしかばパロ己の妻の妹即ち王妃タペネスの妹を彼に妻せり
Hadad found great favour in the sight of Pharaoh, so that he gave him as wife the sister of his own wife, the sister of Tahpenes the queen.
20 タペネスの妹彼に男子ゲヌバテを生ければタペネス之をパロの家の中にて乳離せしむゲヌバテ、パロの家にてパロの子の中にありき
The sister of Tahpenes bore him Genubath his son, whom Tahpenes weaned in Pharaoh’s house; and Genubath was in Pharaoh’s house amongst the sons of Pharaoh.
21 ハダデ、エジプトに在てダビデの其先祖と偕に寝りたると軍の長ヨアブの死たるを聞しかばハダデ、パロに言けるは我を去しめてわが國に往しめよと
When Hadad heard in Egypt that David slept with his fathers, and that Joab the captain of the army was dead, Hadad said to Pharaoh, “Let me depart, that I may go to my own country.”
22 パロ彼にいひけるは爾我とともにありて何の缺たる處ありてか爾の國に往ん事を求むる彼言ふ何も無し然どもねがはくは我を去しめよ去しめよ
Then Pharaoh said to him, “But what have you lacked with me, that behold, you seek to go to your own country?” He answered, “Nothing, however only let me depart.”
23 神父エリアダの子レゾンを興してソロモンの敵となせり彼は其主人ゾバの王ハダデゼルの許を逃さりたる者なり
God raised up an adversary to him, Rezon the son of Eliada, who had fled from his lord, Hadadezer king of Zobah.
24 ダビデがゾバの人を殺したる時に彼人を自己に集めて一隊の首領となりしが彼等ダマスコに往て彼處に住みダマスコを治めたり
He gathered men to himself, and became captain over a troop, when David killed them of Zobah. They went to Damascus and lived there, and reigned in Damascus.
25 ハダデが爲たる害の外にレゾン、ソロモンの一生の間イスラエルの敵となれり彼イステエルを惡みてスリアに王たりき
He was an adversary to Israel all the days of Solomon, in addition to the mischief of Hadad. He abhorred Israel, and reigned over Syria.
26 ゼレダのヱフラタ人ネバテの子ヤラベアムはソロモンの僕なりしが其母の名はゼルヤと曰て嫠婦なりき彼も亦其手を擧て王に敵す
Jeroboam the son of Nebat, an Ephraimite of Zeredah, a servant of Solomon, whose mother’s name was Zeruah, a widow, also lifted up his hand against the king.
27 彼が手を擧て王に敵せし故は此なりソロモン、ミロを築き其父ダビデの城の損缺を塞ぎ居たり
This was the reason why he lifted up his hand against the king: Solomon built Millo, and repaired the breach of his father David’s city.
28 其人ヤラベアムは大なる能力ある者なりしかばソロモン此少者が事に勤むるを見て之を立てヨセフの家の凡の役を督どらしむ
The man Jeroboam was a mighty man of valour; and Solomon saw the young man that he was industrious, and he put him in charge of all the labour of the house of Joseph.
29 其頃ヤラベアム、エルサレムを出し時シロ人なる預言者アヒヤ路にて彼に遭へり彼は新しき衣服を著ゐたりしが彼等二人のみ野にありき
At that time, when Jeroboam went out of Jerusalem, the prophet Ahijah the Shilonite found him on the way. Now Ahijah had clad himself with a new garment; and the two of them were alone in the field.
30 アヒヤ其著たる新しき衣服を執へて之を十二片に裂き
Ahijah took the new garment that was on him, and tore it in twelve pieces.
31 ヤラベアムに言けるは爾自ら十片を取れイスラエルの神ヱホバ斯言たまふ視よ我國をソロモンの手より裂きはなして爾に十の支派を與へん
He said to Jeroboam, “Take ten pieces; for the LORD, the God of Israel, says, ‘Behold, I will tear the kingdom out of the hand of Solomon and will give ten tribes to you
32 (但し彼はわが僕ダビデの故に因り又わがイスラエルの凡の支派の中より選みたる城エルサレムの故に因りて一の支派を有つべし)
(but he shall have one tribe, for my servant David’s sake and for Jerusalem’s sake, the city which I have chosen out of all the tribes of Israel),
33 其は彼等我を棄てシドン人の神アシタロテとモアブの神ケモシとアンモンの子孫の神モロクを拝み其父ダビデの如くわが道に歩てわが目に適ふ事わが法ととわが律例を行はざればなり
because they have forsaken me, and have worshipped Ashtoreth the goddess of the Sidonians, Chemosh the god of Moab, and Milcom the god of the children of Ammon. They have not walked in my ways, to do that which is right in my eyes, and to keep my statutes and my ordinances, as David his father did.
34 然ども我は國を盡くは彼の手より取ざるべし我が選みたるわが僕ダビデわが命令とわが法憲を守りたるに因て我彼が爲にソロモンを一生の間主たらしむべし
“‘However, I will not take the whole kingdom out of his hand, but I will make him prince all the days of his life for David my servant’s sake whom I chose, who kept my commandments and my statutes,
35 然ど我其子の手より國を取て其十の支派を爾に與へん
but I will take the kingdom out of his son’s hand and will give it to you, even ten tribes.
36 其子には我一の支派を與へてわが僕ダビデをしてわが己の名を置んとてわがために擇みたる城エルサレムにてわが前に常に一の光明を有しめん
I will give one tribe to his son, that David my servant may have a lamp always before me in Jerusalem, the city which I have chosen for myself to put my name there.
37 我爾を取ん爾は凡て爾の心の望む所を治めイスラエルの上に王となるべし
I will take you, and you shall reign according to all that your soul desires, and shall be king over Israel.
38 爾若わが爾に命ずる凡の事を聽て吾が道に歩みわが目に適ふ事を爲しわが僕ダビデが爲し如く我が法憲と誡命を守らば我爾と偕にありてわがダビデのために建しごとく爾のために鞏固き家を建てイスラエルを爾に與ふべし
It shall be, if you will listen to all that I command you, and will walk in my ways, and do that which is right in my eyes, to keep my statutes and my commandments, as David my servant did, that I will be with you, and will build you a sure house, as I built for David, and will give Israel to you.
39 我之がためにダビデの裔を苦めんされど永遠には非じと
I will afflict the offspring of David for this, but not forever.’”
40 ソロモン、ヤラベアムを殺さんと求めければヤラベアム起てエジプトに逃遁れエジプトの王シシヤクに至りてソロモンの死ぬるまでエジプトに居たり
Therefore Solomon sought to kill Jeroboam, but Jeroboam arose and fled into Egypt, to Shishak king of Egypt, and was in Egypt until the death of Solomon.
41 ソロモンの其餘の行爲と凡て彼が爲たる事および其智慧はソロモンの行爲の書に記さるるにあらすや
Now the rest of the acts of Solomon, and all that he did, and his wisdom, aren’t they written in the book of the acts of Solomon?
42 ソロモンのエルサレムにてイスラエルの全地を治めたる日は四十年なりき
The time that Solomon reigned in Jerusalem over all Israel was forty years.
43 ソロモン其父祖と偕に寝りて其父ダビデの城に葬らる其子レハベアム之に代て王となれり
Solomon slept with his fathers, and was buried in his father David’s city; and Rehoboam his son reigned in his place.
