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

But, King Solomon, loved many foreign women, together with the daughter of Pharaoh, —women of the Moabites, Ammonites, Edomites, Zidonians, 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

out of the nations concerning whom Yahweh had said unto the sons of Israel—Ye shall not go in unto them, and, they, shall not come in unto you, surely they will turn aside your heart after their gods. Unto these, did Solomon cleave 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

So it came to pass that he had seven hundred wives who were princesses, and three hundred concubines, —and, his wives, turned aside, his heart.

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

Yea it came to pass, in the old age of Solomon, that, his wives, turned aside his heart after other gods, —his heart therefore was not sound with Yahweh his God, as was the heart of David his father.

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 Solomon went after Ashtoreth, goddess of the Zidonians, and after Milcom, the abomination 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

Thus Solomon did the thing that was wicked in the eyes of Yahweh, —and went not fully after Yahweh, as did 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

Then, did Solomon build a high place for Chemosh, the abomination of Moab, in the hill that is before Jerusalem, —and for Molech, the abomination of the sons 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, thus, did he for all his foreign wives, —who burned incense and offered sacrifices unto 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

Therefore did Yahweh shew himself angry with Solomon, —because his heart had turned aside from Yahweh God of Israel, who had appeared unto him twice;

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 been giving command to him concerning this thing, that he should not go away after other gods, —but he had not taken heed unto that which Yahweh had commanded.

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

Wherefore Yahweh said unto Solomon—Forasmuch as this hath come to pass with thee, and thou hast not heeded my covenant and my statutes, which I charged upon thee, I will, rend, the kingdom away from thee, and will give it unto a servant of thine.

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

Notwithstanding, in thine own days, will I not do it, for the sake of David thy father, —out of the hand of thy son, will I rend it.

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

Howbeit, all the kingdom, will I not rend away, one tribe, will I give unto thy son, —for the sake of David my servant, and for the sake of Jerusalem, 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 Yahweh raised up an adversary against Solomon, Hadad the Edomite, —of the seed of the king, was he, 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 it came to pass, when David was dealing with Edom, and Joab general of the army went up to bury the slain, —and had smitten 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, six months, did Joab remain there, with all Israel, —until he had cut off every male in Edom,

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 Hadad fled, he and certain men of Edom of the servants of his father, with him, to go into Egypt, —Hadad being a little boy.

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

So they arose out of Midian, and came into Paran, —and took certain men with them out of Paran, and came into Egypt, unto Pharaoh king of Egypt, who gave him a house, and, food, appointed him, and, land, did give unto him.

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 Hadad found great favour in the eyes of Pharaoh, —so that he gave him to wife, the sister of his own wife, the sister of Tahpenes the queen.

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 bare to him Genubath his son, and Tahpenes weaned him, in the house of Pharaoh, —and so it came about, that Genubath was of the household of Pharaoh, among the sons of Pharaoh.

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, when, Hadad, heard in Egypt, that David slept with his fathers, and that Joab general of the army was dead, Hadad said unto Pharaoh, Let me go, that I may take my journey unto mine own land.

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

Then said Pharaoh unto him—But what hast thou been lacking with me, that lo! thou art seeking to take thy journey unto thine own land? And he said—Nothing, howbeit, 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

And God raised up against him an adversary, Rezon son of Eliada, —who had fled from Hadadezer king of Zobah, his lord;

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

and he gathered unto him men, and became captain of a band when David slew them [of Zobah], —then went they to Damascus, and dwelt therein, and reigned in Damascus.

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

Thus became he an adversary unto Israel, all the days of Solomon, this, is the mischief which Hadad did, —so then, he abhorred Israel, when he reigned over Syria.

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

Jeroboam also, son of Nebat, an Ephrathite from Zeredah, whose, mother’s name, was Zeruah, a widow woman, he being servant to Solomon, lifted up a hand 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

And, this, was the cause that he lifted up a hand against the king, —Solomon, built Millo, he closed up of the of David his father. the breach city

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

Now, the man Jeroboam, being an able Solomon observed his servant, that he man, was, one to execute a work, so he gave him oversight of all the charge 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, when, Jeroboam, went forth out of Jerusalem, that there met him Ahijah the Shilonite, the prophet, in the way, he having wrapped himself about with a new mantle; and, they two, were by themselves, 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

Then Ahijah laid hold of the new mantle, that was upon him, —and rent 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 said to Jeroboam, Take thee ten places, —for Thus, saith Yahweh, God of Israel—Behold me! about to rend the kingdom, out of the hand of Solomon, and I will give unto 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)

Howbeit, one tribe, shall he retain, —for the sake of my servant David, and for the sake of Jerusalem, the city that 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 they have forsaken me, and bowed themselves down to Ashtoreth, goddess of the Zidonians, to Chemosh, god of the Moabites, and to Milcom, god of the sons of Ammon, —and have not walked in my ways, by doing what is right in mine eyes, even my statutes and my regulations, like David his father.

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

Yet will I not take all the kingdom out of his hand, —but will suffer him to be, leader, all the days of his life, for the sake of David my servant, whom I chose, —who kept my commandments and my statutes.

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 will give it to thee, even the 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

Nevertheless, go his son, will I give one tribe, —to the end there may remain a lamp unto David my servant always before me, in Jerusalem, the city that 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

But, thee, will I take, and thou shalt reign over all that thy soul could desire, —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

So shall it be, if thou wilt hearken unto all that I shall command thee, and wilt walk in my ways, and do that which is right in mine eyes, by keeping my statutes and my commandments, as did David my servant, then will I be with thee, and will build thee an assured house, as I have built for David, and will give unto thee, Israel.

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

Thus will I humiliate the seed of David, because of this; yet 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

When therefore Solomon sought to put, Jeroboam, to death, Jeroboam arose and fled into Egypt, unto Shishak king of Egypt, —and remained in Egypt, until 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 story of Solomon, and all that he did, and his wisdom, are, they, not written in the book of the records 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

Now, the days 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

So then Solomon slept with his fathers, and was buried in the city of David his father, —and Rehoboam his son reigned in his stead.
