1 Kings 20
1 Then Ben-hadad the King of Aram assembled all his armie, and two and thirtie Kings with him, with horses, and charets, and went vp and besieged Samaria, and fought against it.
スリアの王ベネハダデ其軍勢を悉く集む王三十二人彼と偕にあり又馬と戰車とあり乃ち上りてサマリアを圍み之を攻む
2 And he sent messengers to Ahab King of Israel, into the citie,
彼使をイスラエルの王アハブに遣し邑に至りて彼に言しめけるはベネハダデ斯言ふ
3 And sayd vnto him, Thus sayth Ben-hadad, Thy siluer and thy golde is mine: also thy women, and thy fayre children are mine.
爾の金銀は我の所有なり亦爾の妻等と爾の子等の美秀者は我の所有なり
4 And the King of Israel answered, and sayd, My lord King, according to thy saying, I am thine, and all that I haue.
イスラエルの王答へて言けるは王わが主よ爾の言の如く我と我が有つ者は皆爾の所有なり
5 And when the messengers came againe, they said, Thus commandeth Ben-hadad, and saith, When I shall send vnto thee, and command, thou shalt deliuer me thy siluer and thy golde, and thy women, and thy children,
使者再び來りて言けるはベネハダデ斯語て言ふ我爾に爾我に爾の金銀妻子を付すべしと言遣れり
6 Or els I will sende my seruants vnto thee by to morow this time: and they shall search thine house, and the houses of thy seruants: and whatsoeuer is pleasant in thine eyes, they shall take it in their handes, and bring it away.
然ど明日今頃我が僕を爾に遣さん彼等爾の家と爾の臣僕の家を探索りて凡て爾の日に好ましく見ゆる者を其手に置て取り去るべしと
7 Then the King of Israel sent for all the Elders of the land, and sayd, Take heede, I pray you, and see how he seeketh mischiefe: for he sent vnto me for my wiues, and for my children, and for my siluer, and for my golde, and I denyed him not.
是においてイスラエルの王國の長老を皆召て言けるは請ふ爾等見て此人の害をなさんと求るを知れ彼人を我に遣りて我が妻子とわが金銀を索めたり而るに我之を謝絶ざりしと
8 And all the Elders, and all the people sayd to him, Hearken not vnto him, nor consent.
諸の長老および民皆彼に言けるは爾聽なかれ許すなかれと
9 Wherefore hee sayde vnto the messengers of Ben-hadad, Tell my lorde the King, All that thou didddest sende for to thy seruant at the first time, that I will doe, but this thing I may not do. And the messengers departed, and brought him an answere.
是故に彼ベネハダデの使者に言けるは王わが主に告よ爾が最初に僕に言つかはしたる事は皆我爲べし然ど比事は我爲あたはずと使者往て反命をなせり
10 And Ben-hadad sent vnto him, and sayde, The gods do so to me and more also, if the dust of Samaria be ynough to all the people that follow me, for euery man an handfull.
ベネハダデ彼に言つかはしけるは神等我に斯なし亦重て斯なしたまへサマリアの塵は我に從ふ諸の民の手に滿るに足ざるべしと
11 And the King of Israel answered, and sayd, Tell him, Let not him that girdeth his harneis, boast himselfe, as he that putteth it off.
イスラエルの王答へて帶る者は解く者の如く誇るべからずと告よと言り
12 And when he heard that tidings, as he was with the Kings drinking in the pauilions, he sayd vnto his seruants, Bring forth your engines, and they set them against the citie.
ベネハダデ天幕にありて王等と飮ゐたりしが此事を聞て其臣僕に言けるは爾等陣列を爲せと即ち邑に向ひて陣列をなせり
13 And beholde, there came a Prophet vnto Ahab King of Israel, saying, Thus sayeth the Lord, Hast thou seene all this great multitude? beholde, I will deliuer it into thine hande this day, that thou mayest knowe, that I am the Lord.
時に一人の預言者イスラエルの王アハブの許に至りて言けるはヱホバ斯言たまふ爾此諸の大軍を見るや視よ我今日之を爾の手に付さん爾は我がヱホバなるを知にいたらんと
14 And Ahab sayd, By whome? And he sayde, Thus sayth the Lord, By the seruants of the princes of the prouinces. He sayde againe, Who shall order the battel? And he answered, Thou.
アハブ言けるは誰を以てせんか彼いひけるはヱホバ斯いひたまふ諸省の牧伯の少者を以てすべしアハブ言ふ誰か戰爭を始むべき彼答けるは爾なりと
15 Then he nombred the seruantes of the princes of the prouinces, and they were two hundreth, two and thirtie: and after them he nombred the whole people of all the children of Israel, euen seuen thousand.
アハブ乃ち諸省の牧伯の少者を核るに二百三十二人あり次に凡の民即ちイスラエルの凡の子孫を核るに七千人あり
16 And they went out at noone: but Ben-hadad did drinke till he was drunken in the tentes, both he and the Kings: for two and thirtie Kings helped him.
彼等日中出たちたりしがベネハダデは天幕にて王等即ち己を助る三十二人の王等とともに飮て酔居たり
17 So the seruants of the princes of the prouinces went out first: and Ben-hadad sent out, and they shewed him, saying, There are men come out of Samaria.
諸省の牧伯の少者等先に出たりベネハダデ人を出すにサマリアより人衆出來ると彼に告ければ
18 And he sayde, Whether they be come out for peace, take them aliue: or whether they bee come out to fight, take them yet aliue.
彼言けるは和睦のために出來るも之を生擒べし又戰爭のために出來るも之を生擒べしと
19 So they came out of the citie, to wit, the seruants of the princes of the prouinces, and the hoste which followed them.
諸省の牧伯の是等の少者および之に從ふ軍勢邑より出きたり
20 And they slew euery one his enemie: and the Aramites fled, and Israel pursued them: but Ben-hadad ye King of Aram escaped on an horse with his horsemen.
各其敵手を撃ち殺しければスリア人逃たりイスラエル之を追ふスリアの王ベネハダデは馬に乗り騎兵を從へて逃遁たり
21 And the King of Israel went out, and smote the horses and charets, and with a great slaughter slew he the Aramites.
イスラエルの王出て馬と戰車を撃ち又大にスリア人を撃殺せり
22 (For there had come a Prophet to the King of Israel, and had sayd vnto him, Goe, be of good courage, and consider, and take heede what thou doest: for when the yeere is gone about, the King of Aram wil come vp against thee)
茲に彼預言者イスラエルの王の許に詣て彼に言けるは往て爾の力を養ひ爾の爲すべき事を知り辨ふべし年歸らばスリアの王爾に攻上るべければなりと
23 Then the seruants of the King of Aram said vnto him, Their gods are gods of the moutaines, and therefore they ouercame vs: but let vs fight against them in the playne, and doubtlesse we shall ouercome them.
スリアの王の臣僕王に言けるは彼等の神等は山崗の神なるが故に彼等は我等よりも強かりしなり然ども我等若平地に於て彼等と戰はば必ず彼等よりも強かるべし
24 And this doe, Take the Kings away, euery one out of his place, and place captaines for them.
但し此事を爲せ即ち王等を除きて各其處を離しめ方伯を置て之に代べし
25 And nomber thy selfe an armie, like the armie that thou hast lost, with such horses, and such charets, and we wil fight against them in the plaine, and doubtlesse we shall ouercome them: and he hearkened vnto their voyce, and did so.
又爾の失ひたる軍勢に均き軍勢を爾のために備へ馬は馬戰車は戰車をもて補ふべし斯して我儕平地において彼等と戰はば必ず彼等よりも強かるべしと彼其言を聽いれて然なせり
26 And after the yeere was gone about, Ben-hadad nombred the Aramites, and went vp to Aphek to fight against Israel.
年かへるに及びてベネハダデ、スリア人を核めてアペクに上りイスラエルと戰はんとす
27 And the children of Israel were nombred, and were all assembled and went against them, and the children of Israel pitched before them, like two litle flockes of kiddes: but the Aramites filled the countrey.
イスラエルの子孫核められ兵糧を受て彼等に出會んとて往けりイスラエルの子孫は山羊の二の小群の如く彼等の前に陣どりしがスリア人は其地に充滿たり
28 And there came a man of God, and spake vnto the King of Israel, saying, Thus sayeth the Lord, Because the Aramites haue sayd, The Lord is the God of the mountaines, and not God of the valleis, therefore will I deliuer all this great multitude into thine hand, and ye shall know that I am the Lord.
時に神の人至りてイスラエルの王に告ていひけるはヱホバ斯言たまふスリア人ヱホバは山獄の神にして谿谷の神にあらずと言ふによりて我此諸の大軍を爾の手に付すべし爾等は我がヱホバなるを知に至らんと
29 And they pitched one ouer against the other seuen dayes, and in the seuenth day the battel was ioyned: and the children of Israel slew of the Aramites an hundreth thousand footemen in one day.
彼等七日互に相對て陣どり第七日におよびて戰爭を交接しがイスラエルの子孫一日にスリア人の歩兵十萬人を殺しければ
30 But the rest fled to Aphek into the citie: and there fel a wall vpon seuen and twentie thousand men that were left: and Ben-hadad fled into the citie, and came into a secret chamber.
其餘の者はアベクに逃て邑に入ぬ然るに其石垣崩れて其存れる二萬七千人の上にたふれたりベネハダデは逃て邑にいたり奧の間に入ぬ
31 And his seruants sayd vnto him, Beholde nowe, we haue heard say that the Kings of the house of Israel are mercifull Kings: we pray thee, let vs put sacke cloth about our loynes, and ropes about our heads, and goe out to the King of Israel: it may be that he will saue thy life.
其臣僕彼にいひけるは我儕イスラエルの家の王等は仁慈ある王なりと聞り請ふ我儕粗麻布を腰につけ繩を頭につけてイスラエルの王の所にいたらん彼爾の命を生むることあらんと
32 Then they gyrded sackecloth about their loynes, and put ropes about their heads, and came to the King of Israel, and sayd, Thy seruant Ben-hadad sayth, I pray thee, let me liue: and he sayd, Is he yet aliue? he is my brother.
斯彼等粗麻布を腰にまき繩を頭にまきてイスラエルの王の所にいたりていひけるは爾の僕ベネハダデ請ふ我が生命を生しめたまへと言ふとアハブいひけるは彼は尚生をるや彼はわが兄弟なりと
33 Now the men tooke diliget heede, if they could catch any thing of him, and made haste, and sayd, Thy brother Ben-hadad. And he sayd, Go, bring him. So Ben-hadad came out vnto him, and he caused him to come vp vnto the chariot.
其人々これを吉兆と爲し速に彼の言を承て爾の兄弟ベネハダデといへり彼言けるは爾等ゆきて彼を導ききたるべしと是においてベネハダデ彼の所に出來りしかば彼之を車に登しめたり
34 And Ben-hadad sayd vnto him, The cities, which my father tooke from thy father, I wil restore, and thou shalt make streetes for thee in Damascus, as my father did in Samaria. Then said Ahab, I will let thee goe with this couenant. So he made a couenant with him, and let him goe.
ベネハダデ彼に言けるは我父の爾の父より取たる諸邑は我返すべし又我が父のサマリアに造りたる如く爾ダマスコに於て爾のために街衢を作るべしアハブ言ふ我此契約を以て爾を歸さんと斯彼と契約を爲て彼を歸せり
35 Then a certaine man of the children of the Prophets sayd vnto his neighbour by the comandement of the Lord, Smite me, I pray thee. But the man refused to smite him.
爰に預言者の徒の一人ヱホバの言によりて其同儕に請我を撃てといひけるが其人彼を撃つことを肯ぜざりしかば
36 Then sayd he vnto him, Because thou hast not obeyed the voyce of the Lord, beholde, as soone as thou art departed from me, a lyon shall slay thee. So when he was departed from him, a lyon found him and slew him.
彼其人に言ふ汝ヱホバの言を聽ざりしによりて視よ汝の我をはなれて往く時獅子汝をころさんと其人彼の側を離れて往きけるに獅子之に遇て之を殺せり
37 Then he founde another man, and sayde, Smite mee, I pray thee. And the man smote him, and in smiting wounded him.
彼また他の人に遭て請ふ我を撃といひければ其人之を撃ち撃て傷けたり
38 So the Prophet departed, and wayted for the King by the way, and disguised himselfe with ashes vpon his face.
預言者往て王を途に待ち其目に掩巾をあてて儀容を變ゐたりしが
39 And when the King came by, he cried vnto the King, and said, Thy seruant went into the middes of the battel: and beholde, there went away a man, whom another man brought vnto me, and sayd, Keepe this man: if he be lost, and want, thy life shall go for his life, or els thou shalt pay a talent of siluer.
王の經過る時王に呼はりていひけるは僕戰爭の中に出しに人轉りて一箇の人を我の所に曳きたりて言けるは此人を守れ若彼失ゆく事あらば汝の生命を彼の生命に代べし或は爾銀一タラントを出すべしと
40 And as thy seruant had here and there to do, he was gone: And the King of Israel said vnto him, So shall thy iudgement be: thou hast giuen sentence.
而るに僕此彼に事をなしゐたれば彼遂に失たりとイスラエルの王彼にいひけるは爾の擬定は然なるべし爾之を決めたり
41 And hee hasted, and tooke the ashes away from his face: and the King of Israel knewe him that he was of the Prophets:
彼急ぎて其目の掩巾を取除たればイスラエルの王彼が預言者の一人なるを識り
42 And he said vnto him, Thus saith the Lord, Because thou hast let goe out of thine handes a man whom I appoynted to dye, thy life shall goe for his life, and thy people for his people.
彼王に言けるはヱホバ斯言たまふ爾はわが殲滅んと定めたる人を爾の手より放ちたれば爾の命は彼の生命に代り爾の民は彼の民に代るべしと
43 And the King of Israel went to his house heauie and in displeasure, and came to Samaria.
イスラエルの王憂へ且怒て其家に赴きサマリアに至れり
