< 2 Chronicles 16 >

1 In the thirty-sixth year of Asa’s reign, Baasha king of Israel went up against Judah, and built Ramah, that he might not allow anyone to go out or come in to Asa king of Judah.
アサの治世の三十六年にイスラエルの王バアシヤ、ユダに攻のぼりユダの王アサの所に誰をも往來せざらしめんとてラマを建たり
2 Then Asa brought out silver and gold out of the treasures of the LORD’s house and of the king’s house, and sent to Ben Hadad king of Syria, who lived at Damascus, saying,
是においてアサ、ヱホバの家と王の家との府庫より金銀を取いだしダマスコに住るスリアの王ベネハダデに餽りて言けるは
3 “Let there be a treaty between me and you, as there was between my father and your father. Behold, I have sent you silver and gold. Go, break your treaty with Baasha king of Israel, that he may depart from me.”
我父と汝の父の間の如く我と汝の間に約を立ん視よ我今汝に金銀を餽れり往て汝とイスラエルの王バアシヤとの約を破り彼をして我を離れて去しめよ
4 Ben Hadad listened to King Asa, and sent the captains of his armies against the cities of Israel; and they struck Ijon, Dan, Abel Maim, and all the storage cities of Naphtali.
ベネハダデすなはちアサ王に聽き自己の軍勢の長等をイスラエルの邑々に攻遣ければ彼等イヨン、ダン、アベルマイムおよびナフタリの一切の府庫の邑々を撃たり
5 When Baasha heard of it, he stopped building Ramah, and let his work cease.
バアシヤ聞てラマを建ることを罷めその工事を廢せり
6 Then Asa the king took all Judah, and they carried away the stones and timber of Ramah, with which Baasha had built; and he built Geba and Mizpah with them.
是においてアサ王ユダ全國の人を率ゐバアシヤがラマを建るに用ひたる石と材木を運びきたらしめ之をもてゲバとミズパを建たり
7 At that time Hanani the seer came to Asa king of Judah, and said to him, “Because you have relied on the king of Syria, and have not relied on the LORD your God, therefore the army of the king of Syria has escaped out of your hand.
その頃先見者ハナニ、ユダの王アサの許にいたりて之に言けるは汝はスリアの王に倚賴みて汝の神ヱホバに倚賴まざりしに因てスリア王の軍勢は汝の手を脱せり
8 Weren’t the Ethiopians and the Lubim a huge army, with chariots and exceedingly many horsemen? Yet, because you relied on the LORD, he delivered them into your hand.
かのエテオピア人とルビ人は大軍にして戰車および騎兵はなはだ多かりしにあらずや然るも汝ヱホバに倚賴みたればヱホバかれらを汝の手に付したまへり
9 For the LORD’s eyes run back and forth throughout the whole earth, to show himself strong in the behalf of them whose heart is perfect towards him. You have done foolishly in this; for from now on you will have wars.”
ヱホバは全世界を徧く見そなはし己にむかひて心を全うする者のために力を顯したまふこの事において汝は愚なる事をなせり故に此後は汝に戰爭あるべしと
10 Then Asa was angry with the seer, and put him in the prison; for he was in a rage with him because of this thing. Asa oppressed some of the people at the same time.
然るにアサその先見者を怒りて之を獄舎にいれたり其は烈しくこの事のために彼を怒りたればなりアサまた其頃民を虐げたる事ありき
11 Behold, the acts of Asa, first and last, behold, they are written in the book of the kings of Judah and Israel.
アサの始終の行爲はユダとイスラエルの列王の書に記さる
12 In the thirty-ninth year of his reign, Asa was diseased in his feet. His disease was exceedingly great; yet in his disease he didn’t seek the LORD, but just the physicians.
アサはその治世の三十九年に足を病みその病患つひに劇しくなりしがその病患の時にもヱホバを求めずして醫師を求めたり
13 Asa slept with his fathers, and died in the forty-first year of his reign.
アサその先祖等と偕に寝りその治世の四十一年に死り
14 They buried him in his own tomb, which he had dug out for himself in David’s city, and laid him in the bed which was filled with sweet odours and various kinds of spices prepared by the perfumers’ art; and they made a very great fire for him.
人衆これをその己のためにダビデの邑に堀おける墓に葬り製香の術をもて製したる種々の香物を盈せる床の上に置き之がために夥多しく焚物をなせり
