< Kings IV 11 >

1 And Gotholia the mother of Ochozias saw that her son was dead, and she destroyed all the seed royal.
茲にアハジアの母アタリヤその子の死たるを見て起て王の種を盡く滅したりしが
2 And Josabee daughter of king Joram, sister of Ochozias, took Joas the son of her brother, and stole him from among the king's sons that were put to death, [secreting] him and his nurse in the bedchamber, and hid him from the face of Gotholia, and he was not slain.
ヨラム王の女にしてアハジアの姉妹なるヱホシバといふ者アハジアの子ヨアシを王の子等の殺さるる者の中より竊みとり彼とその乳母を夜着の室にいれて彼をアタリヤに匿したれば終にころされざりき
3 And he remained with her hid in the house of the Lord six years: and Gotholia reigned over the land.
ヨアシは彼とともに六年ヱホバの家に隱れてをりアタリヤ國を治めたり
4 And in the seventh year Jodae sent and took the captains of hundreds of the Chorri and of the Rhasim, and brought them to him into the house of the Lord, and made a covenant of the Lord with them, and adjured them, and Jodae showed them the king's son.
第七年にいたりヱホヤダ人を遣して近衛兵の大將等を招きよせヱホバの家にきたりて己に就しめ彼等と契約を結び彼らにヱホバの家にて誓をなさしめて王の子を見し
5 And charged them, saying, This [is] the thing which you shall do.
かれらに命じて言ふ汝等がなすべき事は是なり汝等安息日に入きたる者は三分の一は王の家をまもり
6 Let a third part of you go in [on] the sabbath-day, and keep you the watch of the king's house in the porch; and another third in the gate of the high way, and a third at the gate behind the footmen; and keep you the guard of the house.
三分の一はスル門にをり三分の一は近衛兵の後の門にをるべし斯なんぢら宮殿をまもりて人をいるべからず
7 And there [shall be] two parties among you, even every one that goes out on the Sabbath, and they shall keep the guard of the Lord's house before the king.
また凡て汝等安息日に出ゆく者はその二手ともにヱホバの家において王をまもるべし
8 And do you compass the king about every man with his weapon in his hand, and he that goes into the ranges shall die: and they shall be with the king in his going out and in his coming in.
すなはち汝らおのおの武器を手にとりて王を環て立べし凡てその列を侵す者をば殺すべし汝等又王の出る時にも入る時にも王とともにをるべし
9 And the captains of hundreds did all things that the wise Jodae commanded; and they took each his men, both those that went in on the sabbath-day, and those that went out on the sabbath-day, and went in to Jodae the priest.
是においてその將官等祭司ヱホヤダが凡て命ぜしごとくにおこなへり即ちかれらおのおの其手の人の安息日に入くべき者と安息日に出ゆくべき者とを率て祭司ヱホヤダに至りしかば
10 And the priest gave to the captains of hundreds the swords and spears of king David that were in the house of the Lord.
祭司はヱホバの殿にあるダビデ王の槍と楯を大將等にわたせり
11 And the footmen stood each with his weapon in his hand from the right corner of the house to the left corner of the house, [by] the altar and the house round about the king.
近衛兵はおのおの手に武器をとりて王の四周にをり殿の右の端より左の端におよびて壇と殿にそひて立つ
12 And he brought forth the king's son, and put upon him the crown and [gave him] the testimony; and he made him king, and anointed him: and they clapped [their] hands, and said, Long live the king.
ヱホヤダすなはち王子を進ませて之に冠冕をいただかせ律法をわたし之を王となして之に膏をそそぎければ人衆手を拍て王長壽かれと言り
13 And Gotholia heard the sound of the people running, and she went in to the people to the house of the Lord.
茲にアタリヤ近衛兵と民の聲を聞きヱホバの殿にいりて民の所にいたり
14 And she looked, and, behold, the king stood near a pillar according to the manner; and the singers and the trumpeters were before the king and all the people of the land [even] rejoicing and sounding with trumpets: and Gotholia tore her garments, and cried, A conspiracy, a conspiracy.
見るに王は常例のごとくに高座の上に立ち其傍に大將等と喇叭手立をり又國の民みな喜びて喇叭を吹をりしかばアタリヤ其衣を裂て反逆なり反逆なりと叫べり
15 And Jodae the priest commanded the captains of hundreds who were over the host, and said to them, Bring her forth without the ranges, [and] he that goes in after her shall certainly die by the sword. For the priest said, Let her not however be slain in the house of the Lord.
時に祭司ヱホヤダ大將等と軍勢の士官等に命じてこれに言ふ彼をして列の間をとほりて出しめよ彼に從がふ者をば劍をもて殺せと前にも祭司は彼をヱホバの家に殺すべからずと言おけり
16 And they laid hands upon her, and went in by the way of the horses' entrance into the house of the Lord, and she was slain there.
是をもて彼のために路をひらきければ彼王の家の馬道をとほりゆきしが遂に其處に殺されぬ
17 And Jodae made a covenant between the Lord and the king and the people, that they should be the Lord's people; also between the king and the people.
斯てヱホヤダはヱホと王と民の間にその皆ヱホバの民とならんといふ契約を立しめたり亦王と民の間にもこれを立しめたり
18 And all the people of the land went into the house of Baal, and tore it down, and completely broke in pieces his altars and his images, and they killed Mathan the priest of Baal before the altars. And the priest appointed overseers over the house of the Lord.
是をもて國の民みなバアルの家にいりてこれを毀ちその壇とその像を全く打碎きバアルの祭司マツタンをその壇の前に殺せり而して祭司ヱホバの家に監督者を設けたり
19 And he took the captains of the hundreds, and the Chorri, and the Rhasim, and all the people of the land, and brought down the king out of the house of the Lord; and they went in by the way of the gate of the footmen of the king's house, and seated him there on the throne of the kings.
ヱホヤダすなはち大將等と近衛兵と國の諸の民を率てヱホバの家より王をみちびき下り近衛兵の門の途よりして王の家にいたり王の位に坐せしめたり
20 And all the people of the land rejoiced, and the city was at rest: and they killed Gotholia with the sword in the house of the king.
斯有しかば國の民はみな喜びて邑は平穩なりきアタリヤは王の家に殺されぬ
21 Joas [was] seven years old when he began to reign.
ヨアシは位に即し時七歳なりき
