列王記Ⅱ 20

1 當時ヒゼキヤ病て死なんとせしことありアモツの子預言者イザヤ彼の許にいたりて之にいひけるはヱホバかく言たまふ汝家の人に遺命をなせ汝は死ん生ることを得じと

In those days was Hezekiah sick unto death. And the prophet Isaiah the son of Amoz came to him, and said unto him, Thus says the LORD, Set your house in order; for you shall die, and not live.

2 是においてヒゼキヤその面を壁にむけてヱホバに祈り

Then he turned his face to the wall, and prayed unto the LORD, saying,

3 嗚呼ヱホバよ願くは我が眞實と一心をもて汝の前にあゆみ汝の目に適ふことを行ひしを記憶たまへと言て痛く泣り

I plead to you, O LORD, remember now how I have walked before you in truth and with a perfect heart, and have done that which is good in your sight. And Hezekiah wept sore.

4 かくてイザヤ未だ中の邑を出はなれざる間にヱホバの言これに臨みて言ふ

And it came to pass, before Isaiah was gone out into the middle court, that the word of the LORD came to him, saying,

5 汝還りてわが民の君ヒゼキヤに告よ汝の父ダビデの神ヱホバかく言ふ我汝の祈祷を聽り汝の涙を看たり然ば汝を愈すべし第三日には汝ヱホバの家に入ん

Return, and tell Hezekiah the captain of my people, Thus says the LORD, the God of David your father, I have heard your prayer, I have seen your tears: behold, I will heal you: on the third day you shall go up unto the house of the LORD.

6 我汝の齢を十五年増べし我汝とこの邑とをアッスリヤの王の手より救ひ我名のため又わが僕ダビデのためにこの邑を守らんと

And I will add unto your days fifteen years; and I will deliver you and this city out of the hand of the king of Assyria; and I will defend this city for mine own sake, and for my servant David's sake.

7 是に於てイザヤ乾無花果の団塊一箇を持きたれと言ければすなはち之を持きたりてその腫物に貼たればヒゼキヤ愈ぬ

And Isaiah said, Take a lump of figs. And they took and laid it on the boil, and he recovered.

8 ヒゼキヤ、イザヤに言けるはヱホバが我を愈したまふ事と第三日に我がヱホバの家にのぼりゆく事とにつきては何の徴あるや

And Hezekiah said unto Isaiah, What shall be the sign that the LORD will heal me, and that I shall go up into the house of the LORD the third day?

9 イザヤ言けるはヱホバがその言しところを爲たまはん事につきては汝ヱホバよりこの徴を得ん日影進めること十度なり若日影十度退かば如何

And Isaiah said, This sign shall you have of the LORD, that the LORD will do the thing that he has spoken: shall the shadow go forward ten degrees, or go back ten degrees?

10 ヒゼキヤ答へけるは日影の十度進むは易き事なり然せざれ日影を十度しりぞかしめよ

And Hezekiah answered, It is a light thing for the shadow to go down ten degrees: nay, but let the shadow return backward ten degrees.

11 是において預言者イザヤ、ヱホバに龥はりければアハスの日晷の上に進みし日影を十度しりぞかしめたまへり

And Isaiah the prophet cried unto the LORD: and he brought the shadow ten degrees backward, by which it had gone down in the dial of Ahaz.

12 その頃バラダンの子なるバビロンの王メロダクバラダン書および禮物をヒゼキヤにおくれり是はヒゼキヤの疾をるを聞たればなり

At that time Berodachbaladan, the son of Baladan, king of Babylon, sent letters and a present unto Hezekiah: for he had heard that Hezekiah had been sick.

13 ヒゼキヤこれがために喜びその寶物の庫金銀香物貴き膏および武器庫ならびにその府庫にあるところの一切の物を之に見せたりその家にある物もその國の中にある物も何一箇としてヒゼキヤが彼等に見せざる者はなかりき

And Hezekiah hearkened unto them, and showed them all the house of his precious things, the silver, and the gold, and the spices, and the precious ointment, and all the house of his armour, and all that was found in his treasures: there was nothing in his house, nor in all his dominion, that Hezekiah showed them not.

14 茲に預言者イザヤ、ヒゼキヤ王のもとに來りてこれに言けるは夫の人々は何を言しや何處より來りしやヒゼキヤ言けるは彼等は遠き國より即ちバビロンより來れり

Then came Isaiah the prophet unto king Hezekiah, and said unto him, What said these men? and from whence came they unto you? And Hezekiah said, They are come from a far country, even from Babylon.

15 イザヤ言ふ彼等は汝の家にて何を見しやヒゼキヤ答へて云ふ吾家にある物は皆かれら之を見たり我庫の中には我がかれに見せざる者なきなり

And he said, What have they seen in your house? And Hezekiah answered, All the things that are in mine house have they seen: there is nothing among my treasures that I have not showed them.

16 イザヤすなはちヒゼキヤに言けるは汝ヱホバの言を聞け

And Isaiah said unto Hezekiah, Hear the word of the LORD.

17 ヱホバ言たまふ視よ日いたる凡て汝の家にある物および汝の先祖等が今日までに積蓄へたる物はバビロンに携ゆかれん遺る者なかるべし

Behold, the days come, that all that is in your house, and that which your fathers have laid up in store unto this day, shall be carried into Babylon: nothing shall be left, says the LORD.

18 汝の身より出る汝の生んところの子等の中を彼等携へ去ん其等はバビロンの王の殿において官吏となるべし

And of your sons that shall issue from you, which you shall brought forth, shall they take away; and they shall be eunuchs in the palace of the king of Babylon.

19 ヒゼキヤ、イザヤに言ふ汝が語れるヱホバの言は善し又いふ若わが世にある間に大平と眞實とあらば善にあらずや

Then said Hezekiah unto Isaiah, Good is the word of the LORD which you have spoken. And he said, Is it not good, if peace and truth be in my days?

20 ヒゼキヤのその餘の行爲その能およびその池塘と水道を作りて水を邑にひきし事はユダの王の歴代志の書にしるさるるにあらずや

And the rest of the acts of Hezekiah, and all his might, and how he made a pool, and a conduit, and brought water into the city, are they not written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Judah?

21 ヒゼキヤその先祖等とともに寝りてその子マナセこれに代りて王となれり

And Hezekiah slept with his fathers: and Manasseh his son reigned in his position.
