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

And king Solomon was a lover of women. And he had seven hundred wives, princesses, and three hundred concubines. And he took strange women, as well as the daughter of Pharao, Moabitish, Ammanitish women, Syrians and Idumeans, Chettites, and Amorites;

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

of the nations concerning whom the Lord forbade the children of Israel, [saying], Ye shall not go in to them, and they shall not come in to you, lest they turn away your hearts after their idols: Solomon clave to these 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

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

And it came to pass in the time of the old age of Solomon, that his heart was not perfect with the Lord his God, as [was] the heart of David his father. And the strange women turned away his heart after their gods. Then Solomon built a high place to Chamos the idol of Moab, and to their king the idol of the children of Ammon,

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

and to Astarte the abomination of the Sidonians.

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 thus he acted towards all his strange wives, who burnt incense and sacrificed to their idols. And Solomon did that which was evil in the sight of the Lord: he went not after the Lord, as David his father.

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

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

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 he turned away his heart from the Lord God of Israel, who had appeared twice to him,

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 charged him concerning this matter, by no means to go after other gods, but to take heed to do what the Lord God commanded him; neither was his heart perfect with the Lord, according to the heart of David his father.

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

And the Lord said to Solomon, Because it has been thus with thee, and thou hast not kept my commandments and my ordinances which I commanded thee, I will surely rend thy kingdom out of thy hand, and give it to thy 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

Only in thy days I will not do it for David thy father's sake: [but] I will take it out of the hand of thy 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

Only I will not take away the whole kingdom: I will give one tribe to thy son for David my servant's sake, and for the sake of Jerusalem, the city which I have chosen.

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

And the Lord raised up an enemy to Solomon, Ader the Idumaean, and Esrom son of Eliadae who [dwelt] in Raama, [and] Adadezer king of Suba his master; (and men gathered to him, and he was head of the conspiracy, and he seized on Damasec, ) and they were adversaries to Israel all the days of Solomon: and Ader the Idumaean [was] of the seed royal in Idumaea.

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 it happened, that while David was utterly destroying Edom, while Joab captain of the host was going to bury the dead, when they slew every male in Idumaea;

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 abode there six months in Idumaea, until he utterly destroyed every male in Idumaea; )

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

that Ader ran away, he and all the Idumaeans of the servants of his father with him; and they went into Egypt; and Ader [was then] a little child.

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 there rise up men out of the city of Madiam, and they come to Pharan, and take men with them, and come to Pharao king of Egypt: and Ader went in to Pharao, and he gave him a house, and appointed him provision.

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

And Ader found great favour in the sight of Pharao, and he gave him his wife's sister in marriage, the elder sister of Thekemina.

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 Thekemina bore to him, [even] to Ader, Ganebath her son; and Thekemina brought him up in the midst of the sons of Pharao, and Ganebath was in the midst of the sons of Pharao.

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

And Ader heard in Egypt that David slept with his fathers, and that Joab the captain of the host was dead; and Ader said to Pharao, Let me go, and I will return 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

And Pharao said to Ader, What lackest thou with me? that lo! thou seekest to depart to thy country? and Ader said to him, By all means let me go.

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

So Ader returned to his country; this [is] the mischief which Ader did, and he was a bitter enemy of Israel, and he reigned in the land of Edom.

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

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

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 Jeroboam the son of Nabat, the Ephrathite of Sarira, the son of a widow, [was] servant of Solomon.

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

And this [was] the occasion of his lifting up [his] hands against king Solomon: now king Solomon built the citadel, he completed the fortification of the city of David his father.

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 the man Jeroboam was very strong; and Solomon saw the young man that he was active, and he set him over the levies of the house 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

And it came to pass at that time, that Jeroboam went forth from Jerusalem, and Achia the Selonite the prophet found him in the way, and caused him to turn aside out of the way: and Achia was clad with a new garment, and they two [were] alone in the field.

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 Achia laid hold of his new garment that was upon him, and tore it [into] twelve pieces:

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 to thyself ten pieces, for thus saith the Lord God of Israel, Behold, I rend the kingdom out of the hand of Solomon, and will give thee ten tribes.

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)

Yet he shall have two tribes, for my servant David's sake, and for the sake of Jerusalem, the city which I have chosen out of all the tribes of Israel.

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 he forsook me, and sacrificed to Astarte the abomination of the Sidonians, and to Chamos, and to the idols of Moab, and to their king the abomination of the children of Ammon, and he walked not in my ways, to do that which was right before me, as David his father [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

Howbeit I will not take the whole kingdom out of his hand, (for I will certainly resist him all the days of his life, ) for David my servant's sake, whom I have chosen.

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 out of the hand of his son, and give thee ten tribes.

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

But to his son I will give the two [remaining] tribes, that my servant David may have an establishment continually before me in Jerusalem, the city which I have chosen for myself 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 I will take thee, and thou shalt reign as thy soul desires, and thou shalt be king over Israel.

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 it shall come to pass, if thou wilt keep all the commandments that I shall give thee, and wilt walk in my ways, and do that which is right before me, to keep my ordinances and my commandments, as David my servant did, that I will be with thee, and will build thee a sure house, as I built to David.

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

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 sought to slay Jeroboam: but he arose and fled into Egypt, to Susakim king of Egypt, and he was in Egypt until Solomon died.

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

And the rest of the history of Solomon, and all that he did, and all his wisdom, behold are not these things written in the book of the life 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 days [during] which Solomon reigned in Jerusalem over all Israel [were] 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 slept with his fathers, and they buried him in the city of David his father, and Roboam his son reigned in his stead.
