< 2 Kings 19 >

1 And when King Hezekiah heard it, he rent his clothes and put on sackecloth, and came into the house of the Lord,
ヒゼキヤ王これを聞てその衣を裂き麻布を身にまとひてヱホバの家に入り
2 And sent Eliakim which was the stewarde of the house, and Shebnah the chanceller, and the Elders of the Priestes clothed in sackecloth to Isaiah the Prophet the sonne of Amoz.
宮内卿エリアキムと書記官セブナと祭司の中の長老等とに麻布を衣せてこれをアモツの子預言者イザヤに遣せり
3 And they said vnto him, Thus saith Hezekiah, This day is a day of tribulation and of rebuke, and blasphemie: for the childre are come to the birth, and there is no strength to bring foorth.
彼等イザヤに言けるはヒゼキヤかく言ふ今日は艱難の日懲罰の日打棄らるる日なり嬰孩すでに產門にいたりて之を產いだす力なき也
4 If so be the Lord thy God hath heard all the wordes of Rabshakeh, whome the King of Asshur his master hath sent to raile on the liuing God, and to reproch him with wordes which the Lord thy God hath heard, then lift thou vp thy prayer for the remnant that are left.
ラブシヤケその主君なるアッスリヤの王に差遣れて來り活る神を謗る汝の神ヱホバあるひは彼の言を聞たまはん而して汝の神ヱホバその聞る言語を責罰たまふこともあらん然ば汝この遺る者の爲に祈祷をたてまつれと
5 So the seruants of King Hezekiah came to Isaiah.
ヒゼキヤ王の僕等すなはちイザヤの許にいたりければ
6 And Isaiah said vnto them, So shall ye say to your master, Thus sayeth the Lord, Be not afraide of the words which thou hast heard, wherewith the seruants of the king of Asshur haue blasphemed me.
イザヤかれらに言けるは汝等の主君にかく言べしヱホバかく言たまふアッスリヤの王の臣僕等が我を謗るところの言を汝聞て懼るるなかれ
7 Beholde, I will sende a blast vpon him, and he shall heare a noyse, and returne to his owne lande: and I will cause him to fall by the sworde in his owne lande.
我かれの氣をうつして風聲を聞て己の國にかへるにいたらしめん我また彼をして自己の國に於て劍に斃れしむべしと
8 So Rabshakeh returned, and founde the King of Asshur fighting against Libnah: for he had heard that he was departed from Lachish.
偖またラブシヤケは歸りゆきてアッスリヤの王がリブナに戰爭をなしをるとこるに至れり其は彼そのラキシを離れしを聞たればなり
9 He heard also men say of Tirhakah King of Ethiopia, Beholde, he is come out to fight against thee: he therefore departed and sent other messengers vnto Hezekiah, saying,
茲にアッスリヤの王はエテオピアの王テルハカ汝に攻きたると言ふを聞てまた使者をヒゼキヤにつかはして言しむ
10 Thus shall ye speake to Hezekiah King of Iudah, and say, Let not thy God deceiue thee in whome thou trustest, saying, Ierusalem shall not be deliuered into the hande of the King of Asshur.
汝等ユダの王ヒゼキヤに告て言べし汝エルサレムはアッスリヤの王の手に陷らじと言て汝が賴むところの神に欺かるるなかれ
11 Beholde, thou hast heard what the Kings of Asshur haue done to all landes, how they haue destroyed them: and shalt thou be deliuered?
汝はアッスリヤの王等が萬の國々になしたるところの事を知る即ちこれを滅しつくせしなり然ば汝いかで救らんや
12 Haue the gods of the heathen deliuered them which my fathers haue destroyed? as Gozan, and Haran, and Rezeph, and the children of Eden, which were in Thelasar?
吾父等はゴザン、ハラン、レゼフおよびテラサルのエデンの人々等を滅ぼせしがその國々の神これを救ひたりしや
13 Where is the King of Hamath, and the King of Arpad, and the King of the citie of Shepharuaim, Hena and Iuah?
ハマテの王アルバデの王セバルワイムの邑およびヘナとアワの王等は何處にあるや
14 So Hezekiah receiued the letter of the hande of the messengers, and read it: and Hezekiah went vp into the house of the Lord, and Hezekiah spread it before the Lord.
ヒゼキヤ使者の手より書を受てこれを讀みヱホバの家にのぼりゆきてヱホバの前にこれを展開げ
15 And Hezekiah prayed before the Lord, and saide, O Lord God of Israel, which dwellest betweene the Cherubims, thou art very God alone ouer all the kingdomes of the earth: thou hast made the heauen and the earth.
而してヒゼキヤ、ヱホバの前に祈りて言けるはケルビムの間にいますイスラエルの神ヱホバよ世の國々の中において只汝のみ神にいます也汝は天地を造りたまひし者にいます
16 Lord, bow downe thine eare, and heare: Lord open thine eyes and behold, and heare the wordes of Saneherib, who hath sent to blaspheme the liuing God.
ヱホバよ耳を傾けて聞たまへヱホバよ目を開きて見たまへセナケリブが活る神を謗りにおくれる言語を聞たまへ
17 Trueth it is, Lord, that the Kings of Asshur haue destroyed the nations and their landes,
ヱホバよ誠にアッスリヤの王等は諸の民とその國々を滅し
18 And haue set fire on their gods: for they were no gods, but the worke of mans hands, euen wood and stone: therefore they destroyed them.
又その神々を火になげいれたり其等は神にあらず人の手の作れる者にして木石たればこれを滅せしなり
19 Nowe therefore, O Lord our God, I beseech thee, saue thou vs out of his hande, that all the kingdomes of the earth may knowe, that thou, O Lord, art onely God.
今われらの神ヱホバよ願くは我らをかれの手より拯ひいだしたまへ然ば世の國々皆汝ヱホバのみ神にいますことを知にいたらん
20 Then Isaiah the sonne of Amoz sent to Hezekiah, saying, Thus saith the Lord God of Israel, I haue heard that which thou hast prayed me, concerning Saneherib King of Asshur.
茲にアモツの子イザヤ、ヒゼキヤに言つかはしけるはイスラエルの神ヱホバかく言たまふ汝がセナケリブの事につきて我に祈るところの事は我これを聽り
21 This is the worde that the Lord hath spoken against him, O Virgine, daughter of Zion, he hath despised thee, and laughed thee to scorne: O daughter of Ierusalem, he hath shaken his head at thee.
ヱホバが彼の事につきて言ふところの言語は是のごとし云く處女なる女子シオンは汝を藐視じ汝を嘲る女子エルサレムは汝にむかひて頭を搖る
22 Whome hast thou railed on? and whome hast thou blasphemed? and against whome hast thou exalted thy voyce, and lifted vp thine eyes on hie? euen against the Holie one of Israel.
汝誰を謗りかつ罵詈しや汝誰にむかひて聲をあげしや汝はイスラエルの聖者にむかひて汝の目を高く擧たるなり
23 By thy messengers thou hast rayled on the Lord, and said, By the multitude of my charets I am come vp to the toppe of the mountaines, by the sides of Lebanon, and will cut downe the hie cedars thereof, and the faire firre trees thereof, and I will goe into the lodging of his borders, and into the forest of his Carmel.
汝使者をもて主を謗て言ふ我夥多き兵車をひきゐて山々の嶺にのぼりレバノンの奧にいたり長高き香柏と美しき松樹を斫たふす我その境の休息所にいたりその園の林にいたる
24 I haue digged, and drunke the waters of others, and with the plant of my feete haue I dried all the floods closed in.
我は外國の地をほりて水を飮む我は足の跖をもてエジプトの河々をことごとくふみ涸すなり
25 Hast thou not heard, howe I haue of olde time made it, and haue formed it long ago? and should I nowe bring it, that it should be destroyed, and laid on ruinous heapes, as cities defensed?
汝聞ずや昔われ之を作し古時よりわれ之を定めたり今われ之をおこなふ即ち堅き邑々は汝のために坵墟となるなり
26 Whose inhabitants haue small power, and are afraid, and confounded: they are like the grasse of the field, and greene herbe, or grasse on ye house toppes, or as corne blasted before it be growen.
是をもてそれらの中にすむ民は力弱かり懼れかつ驚くなり彼等は野の草のごとく靑菜のごとく屋蓋の草のごとく枯る苗のごとし
27 I knowe thy dwelling, yea, thy going out, and thy comming in, and thy furie against me.
汝の止ると汝の出ると汝の入と汝の我にむかひて怒くるふとは我の知ところなり
28 And because thou ragest against me, and thy tumult is come vp to mine eares, I will put mine hooke in thy nostrels, and my bridle in thy lippes, and will bring thee backe againe the same way thou camest.
汝の怒くるふ事と汝の傲慢ところの事上りてわが耳にいりたれば我圏を汝の鼻につけ轡を汝の唇にほどこして汝を元來し道へひきかへすべし
29 And this shalbe a signe vnto thee, O Hezekiah, Thou shalt eate this yeere such things as growe of them selues, and the next yeere such as growe without sowing, and the third yeere sowe ye and reape, and plant vineyardes, and eate the fruites thereof.
是は汝にあたふる徴なり即ち一年は穭を食ひ第二年には又その穭を食ふあらん第三年には汝ら稼ことをし穡ことをし又葡萄園をつくりてその果を食ふべし
30 And the remnant that is escaped of the house of Iudah, shall againe take roote downewarde, and beare fruite vpwarde.
ユダの家の逃れて遺れる者は復根を下に張り實を上に結ばん
31 For out of Ierusalem shall goe a remnant, and some that shall escape out of mount Zion: the zeale of the Lord of hostes shall doe this.
即ち殘餘者エルサレムより出で逃避たる者シオン山より出きたらんヱホバの熱心これを爲べし
32 Wherefore thus saith the Lord, concerning the King of Asshur, He shall not enter into this citie, nor shoote an arrowe there, nor come before it with shield, nor cast a mount against it:
故にヱホバ、アッスリヤの王の事をかく言たまふ彼は此邑に入じ亦これに矢を發つことあらず楯を之にむかひて竪ることあらず亦壘をきづきてこれを攻ることあらじ
33 But he shall returne the way he came, and shall not come into this citie, saith the Lord.
彼はその來し路より歸らん此邑にいることあらじヱホバこれを言ふ
34 For I will defende this citie to saue it for mine owne sake, and for Dauid my seruants sake.
我わが身のため又わが僕ダビデのためにこの邑を守りてこれを救ふべし
35 And the same night the Angell of the Lord went out and smote in the campe of Asshur an hundreth foure score and fiue thousande: so when they rose earely in the morning, behold, they were all dead corpses.
その夜ヱホバの使者いでてアッスリヤ人の陣營の者十八萬五千人を撃ころせり朝早く起いでて見るに皆死て屍となりをる
36 So Saneherib King of Asshur departed, and went his way, and returned, and dwelt in Nineueh.
アッスリヤの王セナケリブすなはち起いで歸りゆきてニネベに居しが
37 And as he was in the Temple worshipping Nisroch his god, Adramelech and Sharezer his sonnes slewe him with the sworde: and they escaped into the land of Ararat, and Esarhaddon his sonne reigned in his steade.
その神ニスロクの家にありて禮拝をなしをる時にその子アデランメレクとシヤレゼル劍をもてこれを殺せり而して彼等はアララテの池に逃ゆけり是においてその子エサルハドンこれに代りて王となれり
