< 列王記Ⅰ 11 >

1 ソロモン王パロの女の外に多の外國の婦を寵愛せり即ちモアブ人アンモニ人エドミ人シドン人ヘテ人の婦を寵愛せり
Now a number of strange women were loved by Solomon, women of the Moabites, Ammonites, Edomites, Zidonians, and Hittites:
2 ヱホバ曾て是等の國民についてイスラエルの子孫に言たまひけらく爾等は彼等と交るべからず彼等も亦爾等と交るべからず彼等必ず爾等の心を轉して彼等の神々に從はしめんとしかるにソロモン彼等を愛して離れざりき
The nations of which the Lord had said to the children of Israel, You are not to take wives from them and they are not to take wives from you; or they will certainly make you go after their gods: to these Solomon was united in love.
3 彼妃公主七百人嬪三百人あり其妃等彼の心を轉せり
He had seven hundred wives, daughters of kings, and three hundred other wives; and through his wives his heart was turned away.
4 ソロモンの年老たる時妃等其心を轉移して他の神に從はしめければ彼の心其父ダビデの心の如く其神ヱホバに全からざりき
For it came about that when Solomon was old, his heart was turned away to other gods by his wives; and his heart was no longer true to the Lord his God as the heart of his father David had been.
5 其はソロモン、シドン人の神アシタロテに從ひアンモニ人の惡むべき者なるモロクに從ひたればなり
For Solomon went after Ashtoreth, the goddess of the Zidonians, and Milcom, the disgusting god of the Ammonites.
6 ソロモン斯ヱホバの目のまへに惡を行ひ其父ダビデの如く全くはヱホバに從はざりき
And Solomon did evil in the eyes of the Lord, not walking in the Lord's ways with all his heart as David his father did.
7 爰にソロモン、モアブの憎むべき者なるケモシの爲又アンモンの子孫の憎むべき者なるモロクのためにエルサレムの前なる山に崇邱を築けり
Then Solomon put up a high place for Chemosh, the disgusting god of Moab, in the mountain before Jerusalem, and for Molech, the disgusting god worshipped by the children of Ammon.
8 彼又其異邦の凡の妃の爲にも然せしかば彼等は香を焚て己々の神を祭れり
And so he did for all his strange wives, who made offerings with burning of perfumes to their gods.
9 ソロモンの心轉りてイスラエルの神ヱホバを離れしによりてヱホバ彼を怒りたまふヱホバ嘗て兩次彼に顯れ
And the Lord was angry with Solomon, because his heart was turned away from the Lord, the God of Israel, who had twice come to him in a vision;
10 此事に付て彼に他の神に從ふべからずと命じたまひけるに彼ヱホバの命じたまひし事を守らざりしなり
And had given him orders about this very thing, that he was not to go after other gods; but he did not keep the orders of the Lord.
11 ヱホバ、ソロモンに言たまひけるは此事爾にありしに因り又汝わが契約とわが爾に命じたる法憲を守らざりしに因て我必ず爾より國を裂きはなして之を爾の臣僕に與ふべし
So the Lord said to Solomon, Because you have done this, and have not kept my agreement and my laws, which I gave you, I will take the kingdom away from you by force and will give it to your servant.
12 然ど爾の父ダビデの爲に爾の世には之を爲ざるべし我爾の子の手より之を裂きはなさん
I will not do it in your life-time, because of your father David, but I will take it from your son.
13 但し我は國を盡くは裂きはなさずしてわが僕ダビデのために又わが選みたるエルサレムのために一の支派を爾の子に與へんと
Still I will not take all the kingdom from him; but I will give one tribe to your son, because of my servant David, and because of Jerusalem, the town of my selection.
14 是に於てヱホバ、エドミ人ハダデを興してソロモンの敵と爲したまふ彼はエドム王の裔なり
So the Lord sent Hadad the Edomite to make trouble for Solomon: he was of the king's seed in Edom.
15 曩にダビデ、エドムに事ありし時軍の長ヨアブ上りて其戰死せし者を葬りエドムの男を盡く撃殺しける時に方りて
And when David had sent destruction on Edom, and Joab, the captain of the army, had gone to put the dead into the earth, and had put to death every male in Edom;
16 (ヨアブはエドムの男を盡く絶までイスラエルの群衆と偕に六月其處に止れり)
(For Joab and all Israel were there six months till every male in Edom had been cut off; )
17 ハダデ其父の僕なる數人のエドミ人と共に逃てエジブトに往んとせり時にハダデは尚小童子なりき
Hadad, being still a young boy, went in flight to Egypt, with certain Edomites, servants of his father;
18 彼等ミデアンを起出てバランに至りパランより人を伴ひてエジプトに往きエジプトの王パロに詣るにバロ彼に家を與へ食糧を定め且土地を與へたり
And they went on from Midian and came to Paran; and, taking men from Paran with them, they came to Egypt, to Pharaoh, king of Egypt, who gave him a house and gave orders for his food and gave him land.
19 ハダデ大にパロの心にかなひしかばパロ己の妻の妹即ち王妃タペネスの妹を彼に妻せり
Now Hadad was very pleasing to Pharaoh, so that he gave him the sister of his wife, Tahpenes the queen, for his wife.
20 タペネスの妹彼に男子ゲヌバテを生ければタペネス之をパロの家の中にて乳離せしむゲヌバテ、パロの家にてパロの子の中にありき
And the sister of Tahpenes had a son by him, Genubath, whom Tahpenes took care of in Pharaoh's house; and Genubath was living in Pharaoh's house among Pharaoh's sons.
21 ハダデ、エジプトに在てダビデの其先祖と偕に寝りたると軍の長ヨアブの死たるを聞しかばハダデ、パロに言けるは我を去しめてわが國に往しめよと
Now when Hadad had news in Egypt that David had been put to rest with his fathers, and that Joab, the captain of the army, was dead, he said to Pharaoh, Send me back to my country.
22 パロ彼にいひけるは爾我とともにありて何の缺たる處ありてか爾の國に往ん事を求むる彼言ふ何も無し然どもねがはくは我を去しめよ去しめよ
But Pharaoh said to him, What have you been short of while you have been with me, that you are desiring to go back to your country? And he said, Nothing; but even so, send me back.
23 神父エリアダの子レゾンを興してソロモンの敵となせり彼は其主人ゾバの王ハダデゼルの許を逃さりたる者なり
And God sent another trouble-maker, Rezon, the son of Eliada, who had gone in flight from his lord, Hadadezer, king of Zobah:
24 ダビデがゾバの人を殺したる時に彼人を自己に集めて一隊の首領となりしが彼等ダマスコに往て彼處に住みダマスコを治めたり
He got some men together and made himself captain of a band of outlaws; and went to Damascus and became king there.
25 ハダデが爲たる害の外にレゾン、ソロモンの一生の間イスラエルの敵となれり彼イステエルを惡みてスリアに王たりき
He was a trouble to Israel all through the days of Solomon. And this is the damage Hadad did: he was cruel to Israel while he was ruler over Edom.
26 ゼレダのヱフラタ人ネバテの子ヤラベアムはソロモンの僕なりしが其母の名はゼルヤと曰て嫠婦なりき彼も亦其手を擧て王に敵す
And there was Jeroboam, the son of Nebat, an Ephraimite from Zeredah, a servant of Solomon, whose mother was Zeruah, a widow; and his hand was lifted up against the king.
27 彼が手を擧て王に敵せし故は此なりソロモン、ミロを築き其父ダビデの城の損缺を塞ぎ居たり
The way in which his hand came to be lifted up against the king was this: Solomon was building the Millo and making good the damaged parts of the town of his father David;
28 其人ヤラベアムは大なる能力ある者なりしかばソロモン此少者が事に勤むるを見て之を立てヨセフの家の凡の役を督どらしむ
And Jeroboam was an able and responsible man; and Solomon saw that he was a good worker and made him overseer of all the work given to the sons of Joseph.
29 其頃ヤラベアム、エルサレムを出し時シロ人なる預言者アヒヤ路にて彼に遭へり彼は新しき衣服を著ゐたりしが彼等二人のみ野にありき
Now at that time, when Jeroboam was going out of Jerusalem, the prophet Ahijah the Shilonite came across him on the road; now Ahijah had put on a new robe; and the two of them were by themselves in the open country.
30 アヒヤ其著たる新しき衣服を執へて之を十二片に裂き
And Ahijah took his new robe in his hands, parting it violently into twelve.
31 ヤラベアムに言けるは爾自ら十片を取れイスラエルの神ヱホバ斯言たまふ視よ我國をソロモンの手より裂きはなして爾に十の支派を與へん
And he said to Jeroboam, Take ten of the parts, for this is what the Lord has said: See, I will take the kingdom away from Solomon by force, and will give ten tribes to you;
32 (但し彼はわが僕ダビデの故に因り又わがイスラエルの凡の支派の中より選みたる城エルサレムの故に因りて一の支派を有つべし)
(But one tribe will be his, because of my servant David, and because of Jerusalem, the town which, out of all the tribes of Israel, I have made mine, )
33 其は彼等我を棄てシドン人の神アシタロテとモアブの神ケモシとアンモンの子孫の神モロクを拝み其父ダビデの如くわが道に歩てわが目に適ふ事わが法ととわが律例を行はざればなり
Because they are turned away from me to the worship of Ashtoreth, the goddess of the Zidonians, and Chemosh, the god of Moab, and Milcom, the god of the Ammonites; they have not been walking in my ways or doing what is right in my eyes or keeping my laws and my decisions as his father David did.
34 然ども我は國を盡くは彼の手より取ざるべし我が選みたるわが僕ダビデわが命令とわが法憲を守りたるに因て我彼が爲にソロモンを一生の間主たらしむべし
But I will not take the kingdom from him; I will let him be king all the days of his life, because of David my servant, in whom I took delight because he kept my orders and my laws.
35 然ど我其子の手より國を取て其十の支派を爾に與へん
But I will take the kingdom from his son, and give it to you.
36 其子には我一の支派を與へてわが僕ダビデをしてわが己の名を置んとてわがために擇みたる城エルサレムにてわが前に常に一の光明を有しめん
And one tribe I will give to his son, so that David my servant may have a light for ever burning before me in Jerusalem, the town which I have made mine to put my name there.
37 我爾を取ん爾は凡て爾の心の望む所を治めイスラエルの上に王となるべし
And you I will take, and you will be king over Israel, ruling over whatever is the desire of your soul.
38 爾若わが爾に命ずる凡の事を聽て吾が道に歩みわが目に適ふ事を爲しわが僕ダビデが爲し如く我が法憲と誡命を守らば我爾と偕にありてわがダビデのために建しごとく爾のために鞏固き家を建てイスラエルを爾に與ふべし
And if you give attention to the orders I give you, walking in my ways and doing what is right in my eyes and keeping my laws and my orders as David my servant did; then I will be with you, building up for you a safe house, as I did for David, and I will give Israel to you.
39 我之がためにダビデの裔を苦めんされど永遠には非じと
(So that I may send trouble for this on the seed of David, but not for ever.)
40 ソロモン、ヤラベアムを殺さんと求めければヤラベアム起てエジプトに逃遁れエジプトの王シシヤクに至りてソロモンの死ぬるまでエジプトに居たり
And Solomon was looking for a chance to put Jeroboam to death; but he went in flight to Egypt, to Shishak, king of Egypt, and was in Egypt till the death of Solomon.
41 ソロモンの其餘の行爲と凡て彼が爲たる事および其智慧はソロモンの行爲の書に記さるるにあらすや
Now the rest of the acts of Solomon, and all he did, and his wisdom, are they not recorded in the book of the acts of Solomon?
42 ソロモンのエルサレムにてイスラエルの全地を治めたる日は四十年なりき
And the time Solomon was king in Jerusalem over all Israel was forty years.
43 ソロモン其父祖と偕に寝りて其父ダビデの城に葬らる其子レハベアム之に代て王となれり
And Solomon went to rest with his fathers, and was put into the earth in the town of David his father: and Solomon went to rest with his fathers and Rehoboam his son became king in his place.
