2 Kings 9
1 And Elisha the prophet called one of the children of the prophets, and said to him, Gird up thy loins, and take this box of oil in thy hand, and go to Ramothgilead:
茲に預言者エリシヤ預言者の徒一人を呼てこれに言ふ汝腰をひきからげ此膏の瓶を手にとりてギレアデのラモテに往け
2 And when thou comest there, find Jehu the son of Jehoshaphat the son of Nimshi, and go in, and make him arise up from among his brethren, and take him to an inner chamber;
而して汝かしこに到らばニムシの子なるヨシヤパテの子ヱヒウを其處に尋獲て内に入り彼をその兄弟の中より起しめて奧の間につれゆき
3 Then take the box of oil, and pour it on his head, and say, Thus saith the LORD, I have anointed thee king over Israel. Then open the door, and flee, and tarry not.
膏の瓶をとりその首に灌ぎて言へヱホバかく言たまふ我汝に膏をそそぎてイスラエルの王となすと而して戸を開きて逃されよ止ること勿れ
4 So the young man, even the young man the prophet, went to Ramothgilead.
是において預言者の僕なるその少者ギレアデのラモテに往けるが
5 And when he came, behold, the captains of the host were sitting; and he said, I have an errand to thee, O captain. And Jehu said, To which of us all? And he said, To thee, O captain.
到りて見るに軍勢の長等坐してをりければ將軍よ我汝に告べき事ありと言ふにヱヒウこたへて我儕諸人の中の誰にかと言たれば將軍よ汝にと言ふ
6 And he arose, and went into the house; and he poured the oil on his head, and said to him, Thus saith the LORD God of Israel, I have anointed thee king over the people of the LORD, even over Israel.
ヱヒウすなはち起て家にいりければ彼その首に膏をそそぎて之に言ふイスラエルの神ヱホバかく言たまふ我汝に膏をそそぎてヱホバの民イスラエルの王となす
7 And thou shalt smite the house of Ahab thy master, that I may avenge the blood of my servants the prophets, and the blood of all the servants of the LORD, at the hand of Jezebel.
汝はその主アハブの家を撃ほろぼすべし其によりて我わが僕なる預言者等の血とヱホバの諸の僕等の血をイゼベルの身に報いん
8 For the whole house of Ahab shall perish: and I will cut off from Ahab the males, both bound and free in Israel:
アハブの家は全く滅亡べしアハブに屬する男はイスラエルにありて繋がれたる者も繋がれざる者もともに之を絶べし
9 And I will make the house of Ahab like the house of Jeroboam the son of Nebat, and like the house of Baasha the son of Ahijah:
我アハブの家をネバテの子ヤラベアムの家のごとくに爲しアヒヤの子バアシヤの家のごとくになさん
10 And the dogs shall eat Jezebel in the portion of Jezreel, and there shall be none to bury her. And he opened the door, and fled.
ヱズレルの地において犬イゼベルを食ふべし亦これを葬るものあらじと而して戸を啓きて逃されり
11 Then Jehu came forth to the servants of his lord: and one said to him, Is all well? Why came this mad fellow to thee? And he said to them, Ye know the man, and his communication.
かくてヱヒウその主の臣僕等の許にいできたりたれば一人之に言ふ平安なるやこの狂る者何のために汝にきたりしやヱヒウこたへて汝等はかの人を知りまたその言ところを知なりと言ふに
12 And they said, It is false; tell us now. And he said, Thus and thus he spoke to me, saying, Thus saith the LORD, I have anointed thee king over Israel.
彼等言けらく謊なり其を我儕に告よと是においてヱヒウ言けるは彼斯々我につげて言りヱホバかく言たまふ我汝に膏をそそぎてイスラエルの王となすと
13 Then they hasted, and took every man his garment, and put it under him on the top of the stairs, and blew with trumpets, saying, Jehu is king.
彼等すなはち急ぎて各人その衣服をとりこれを階の上ヱヒウの下に布き喇叭を吹てヱヒウは王たりと言り
14 So Jehu the son of Jehoshaphat the son of Nimshi conspired against Joram. (Now Joram had kept Ramothgilead, he and all Israel, because of Hazael king of Syria.
ニムシの子なるヨシヤバテの子ヱヒウ斯ヨラムに叛けり(ヨラムはイスラエルを盡くひきゐてギレアデのラモテに於てスリアの王ハザエルを禦ぎたりしが
15 But king Joram had returned to be healed in Jezreel of the wounds which the Syrians had given him, when he fought with Hazael king of Syria.) And Jehu said, If it is your minds, then let none go forth nor escape from the city to go to tell it in Jezreel.
ヨラム王はそのスリアの王ハザエルと戰ふ時にスリア人に負せられたるところの傷を痊さんとてヱズレルに歸りてをる)ヱヒウ言けるは若なんぢらの心にかなはば一人もこの邑より走いでてこれをヱズレルに言ふ者なからしめよと
16 So Jehu rode in a chariot, and went to Jezreel; for Joram lay there. And Ahaziah king of Judah had come down to see Joram.
ヱヒウすなはちヱズレルをさして乗往りヨラムかしこに臥をればなりまたユダの王アハジアはヨラムを訪に下りてをる
17 And there stood a watchman on the tower in Jezreel, and he spied the company of Jehu as he came, and said, I see a company. And Joram said, Take an horseman, and send to meet them, and let him say, Is it peace?
ヱズレルの戌樓に一箇の守望者立をりしがヱヒウの群衆のきたるを見て我群衆を見るといひければヨラム言ふ一人を馬に乗て遣し其に會しめて平安なるやと言しめよと
18 So there went one on horseback to meet him, and said, Thus saith the king, Is it peace? And Jehu said, What hast thou to do with peace? turn thee behind me. And the watchman told, saying, The messenger came to them, but he doth not return.
是において一人馬にて行てこれに會ひ王かく宣まふ平安なるやと言ふにヱヒウ言けるは平安は汝の與るところならんや吾後にまはれと守望者また告て言ふ使者かれらの許に往たるが歸り來ずと
19 Then he sent out a second on horseback, who came to them, and said, Thus saith the king, Is it peace? And Jehu answered, What hast thou to do with peace? turn thee behind me.
是をもて再び人を馬にて遣したればその人かれらに到りて王かく宣まふ何か變事あるやと言ふにヱヒウ答て平安は汝の與るところならんや吾後にまはれと言ふ
20 And the watchman told, saying, He came even to them, and doth not return: and the driving is like the driving of Jehu the son of Nimshi; for he driveth furiously.
守望者また告て言ふ彼も彼等の所にまで到りしが歸り來ずその車を趨するはニムシの子ヱヒウが趨するに似狂ふて趨らせ來る
21 And Joram said, Make ready. And his chariot was made ready. And Joram king of Israel and Ahaziah king of Judah went out, each in his chariot, and they went out against Jehu, and met him in the portion of Naboth the Jezreelite.
是においてヨラム車を整へよと言ひけるが車整ひたればイスラエルの王ヨラムとユダの王アハジアおのおのその車にて出たり即ちかれらヱヒウにむかひて出きたりヱズレル人ナボテの地にて之に會けるが
22 And it came to pass, when Joram saw Jehu, that he said, Is it peace, Jehu? And he answered, What peace, so long as the harlotries of thy mother Jezebel and her witchcrafts are so many?
ヨラム、ヱヒウを見てヱヒウよ平安なるやといひたればヱヒウこたへて汝の母イゼベルの姦淫と魔術と斯多かれば何の平安あらんやと云り
23 And Joram turned his hands, and fled, and said to Ahaziah, There is treachery, O Ahaziah.
ヨラムすなはち手をめぐらして逃げアハジアにむかひ反逆なりアハジアよと言ふに
24 And Jehu drew a bow with his full strength, and smote Jehoram between his arms, and the arrow went out at his heart, and he sunk down in his chariot.
ヱヒウ手に弓をひきしぼりてヨラムの肩の間を射たればその矢かれの心をいぬきて出で彼は車の中に偃ししづめり
25 Then said Jehu to Bidkar his captain, Take up, and cast him into the portion of the field of Naboth the Jezreelite: for remember how that, when I and thou rode together after Ahab his father, the LORD laid this burden upon him;
ヱヒウその將ビデカルに言けるは彼をとりてヱズレル人ナボテの地の中に投すてよ其は汝憶ふべし甞て我と汝と二人ともに乗て彼の父アハブに從へる時にヱホバ斯かれの事を預言したまへり
26 Surely I saw yesterday the blood of Naboth, and the blood of his sons, saith the LORD; and I will repay thee in this plot, saith the LORD. Now therefore take and cast him into the plot of ground, according to the word of the LORD.
曰くヱホバ言ふ誠に我昨日ナボテの血とその子等の血を見たりヱホバ言ふ我この地において汝にむくゆることあらんと然ば彼をとりてその地になげすててヱホバの言のごとくにせよ
27 But when Ahaziah the king of Judah saw this, he fled by the way of the garden house. And Jehu followed him, and said, Smite him also in the chariot. And they did so at the ascent of Gur, which is by Ibleam. And he fled to Megiddo, and died there.
ユダの王アハジアはこれを視て園の家の途より逃ゆきけるがヱヒウその後を追ひ彼をも車の中に撃ころせと言しかばイブレアムの邊なるグルの坂にてこれを撃たればメギドンまで逃ゆきて其處に死り
28 And his servants carried him in a chariot to Jerusalem, and buried him in his sepulchre with his fathers in the city of David.
その臣僕等すなはち之を車にのせてエルサレムにたづさへゆきダビデの邑においてかれの墓にその先祖等とおなじくこれを葬れり
29 And in the eleventh year of Joram the son of Ahab began Ahaziah to reign over Judah.
アハブの子ヨラムの十一年にアハジアはユダの王となりしなり
30 And when Jehu had come to Jezreel, Jezebel heard of it; and she painted her face, and adorned her head, and looked out at a window.
斯てヱヒウ、ヱズレルにきたりしかばイゼベル聞てその目を塗り髮をかざりて窓より望みけるが
31 And as Jehu entered the gate, she said, Had Zimri peace, who slew his master?
ヱヒウ門に入きたりたればその主を弑せしジムリよ平安なるやと言り
32 And he lifted up his face to the window, and said, Who is on my side? who? And there looked out to him two or three eunuchs.
ヱヒウすなはち面をあげて窓にむかひ誰か我に與ものあるや誰かあるやと言けるに二三の寺人ヱヒウを望みたれば
33 And he said, Throw her down. So they threw her down: and some of her blood was sprinkled on the wall, and on the horses: and he trod her under foot.
彼を投おとせと言りすなはち之を投おとしたればその血牆と馬とにほどばしりつけりヱヒウこれを踏とほれり
34 And when he had come in, he ate and drank, and said, Go, see now this cursed woman, and bury her: for she is a king’s daughter.
斯て彼内にいりて食飮をなし而して言けるは往てかの詛はれし婦を見これを葬れ彼は王の女子なればなりと
35 And they went to bury her: but they found no more of her than the skull, and the feet, and the palms of her hands.
是をもて彼を葬らんとて往て見るにその頭骨と足と掌とありしのみなりければ
36 Therefore they came again, and told him. And he said, This is the word of the LORD, which he spoke by his servant Elijah the Tishbite, saying, In the portion of Jezreel shall dogs eat the flesh of Jezebel:
歸りで彼につぐるに彼言ふ是すなはちヱホバがその僕なるテシベ人エリヤをもて告たまひし言なり云くヱズレルの地において犬イゼベルの肉を食はん
37 And the dead body of Jezebel shall be as refuse upon the face of the field in the portion of Jezreel; so that they shall not say, This is Jezebel.
イゼベルの屍骸はヱズレルの地に於て糞土のごとくに野の表にあるべし是をもて是はイゼベルなりと指て言ふこと能ざらん
