列王記Ⅰ 15
1 ネバテの子ヤラベアム王の第十八年にアビヤムがユダの王となり、
In the eighteenth year of King Jeroboam son of Nebat, Abijah began to reign over Judah.
2 エルサレムで三年世を治めた。その母の名はマアカといって、アブサロムの娘であった。
He ruled for three years in Jerusalem. His mother's name was Maacah. She was the daughter of Abishalom.
3 彼はその父が先に行ったもろもろの罪をおこない、その心は父ダビデの心のようにその神、主に対して全く真実ではなかった。
He walked in all the sins that his father had committed before his time; his heart was not devoted to Yahweh his God as the heart of David, his ancestor, had been.
4 それにもかかわらず、その神、主はダビデのために、エルサレムにおいて彼に一つのともしびを与え、その子を彼のあとに立てて、エルサレムを固められた。
Nevertheless, for David's sake, Yahweh his God gave him a lamp in Jerusalem by raising up his son after him in order to strengthen Jerusalem.
5 それはダビデがヘテびとウリヤの事のほか、一生の間、主の目にかなう事を行い、主が命じられたすべての事に、そむかなかったからである。
God did this because David had done what was right in his eyes; for all the days of his life, he had not turned away from anything that he commanded him, except only in the matter of Uriah the Hittite.
6 レハベアムとヤラベアムの間には一生の間、戦争があった。
Now there was war between Rehoboam and Jeroboam all the days of Abijah's life.
7 アビヤムのその他の行為と、彼がしたすべての事は、ユダの王の歴代志の書にしるされているではないか。アビヤムとヤラベアムの間にも戦争があった。
As for the other matters of Abijah, all that he did, are they not written in the book of the events of the kings of Judah? There was war between Abijah and Jeroboam.
8 アビヤムはその先祖と共に眠って、ダビデの町に葬られ、その子アサが代って王となった。
Abijah slept with his ancestors, and they buried him in the city of David. Asa his son became king in his place.
9 イスラエルの王ヤラベアムの第二十年にアサはユダの王となり、
In the twentieth year of Jeroboam king of Israel, Asa began to reign over Judah.
10 エルサレムで四十一年世を治めた。その母の名はマアカといってアブサロムの娘であった。
He ruled forty-one years in Jerusalem. His grandmother's name was Maacah, the daughter of Abishalom.
11 アサはその父ダビデがしたように主の目にかなう事をし、
Asa did what was right in the eyes of Yahweh, as David, his ancestor, had done.
12 神殿男娼を国から追い出し、先祖たちの造ったもろもろの偶像を除いた。
He expelled the cultic prostitutes from the land and removed all the idols that his ancestors had made.
13 彼はまたその母マアカが、アシラのために憎むべき像を造らせたので、彼女を太后の位から退けた。そしてアサはその憎むべき像を切り倒してキデロンの谷で焼き捨てた。
He also removed Maacah, his grandmother, from being queen, because she had made a disgusting figure out of an Asherah pole. Asa cut down the disgusting figure and burned it at the Kidron Valley.
14 ただし高き所は除かなかった。けれどもアサの心は一生の間、主に対して全く真実であった。
But the high places were not taken away. Nevertheless, Asa's heart was completely devoted to Yahweh all his days.
15 彼は父の献納した物と自分の献納した物、金銀および器物を主の宮に携え入れた。
He brought into the house of Yahweh the things that were set apart by his father, and his own things that had been set apart that were made of silver and gold, and vessels.
16 アサとイスラエルの王バアシャの間には一生の間、戦争があった。
There was war between Asa and Baasha king of Israel, all their days.
17 イスラエルの王バアシャはユダに攻め上り、ユダの王アサの所に、だれをも出入りさせないためにラマを築いた。
Baasha king of Israel, acted aggressively against Judah and built up Ramah, so that he might not allow anyone to leave or enter into the land of Asa king of Judah.
18 そこでアサは主の宮の宝蔵と、王の宮殿の宝蔵に残っている金銀をことごとく取って、これを家来たちの手にわたし、そしてアサ王は彼らをダマスコに住んでいるスリヤの王、ヘジョンの子タブリモンの子であるベネハダデにつかわして言わせた、
Then Asa took all the silver and gold left in the storerooms in the house of Yahweh, and the storerooms of the king's palace. He put it into the hands of his servants and sent it to Ben Hadad son of Tabrimmon son of Hezion, the king of Aram, who lived in Damascus. He said,
19 「わたしの父とあなたの父との間に結ばれていたように、わたしとあなたの間に同盟を結びましょう。わたしはあなたに金銀の贈り物をさしあげます。行って、あなたとイスラエルの王バアシャとの同盟を破棄し、彼をわたしの所から撤退させてください」。
“Let there be a covenant between me and you, as there was between my father and your father. Look, I have sent to you a gift of silver and gold. Break your covenant with Baasha king of Israel, so that he may leave me alone.”
20 ベネハダデはアサ王の言うことを聞き、自分の軍勢の長たちをつかわしてイスラエルの町々を攻め、イヨンとダンとアベル・ベテ・マアカおよびキンネレテの全地と、ナフタリの全地を撃った。
Ben Hadad listened to King Asa and sent the commanders of his armies, and they attacked the cities of Israel. They attacked Ijon, Dan, Abel of Beth Maacah, and all Kinnereth, together with all the land of Naphtali.
21 バアシャはこれを聞き、ラマを築くことをやめて、テルザにとどまった。
It came about that when Baasha heard this, he stopped building up Ramah and went back to Tirzah.
22 そこでアサ王はユダ全国に布告を発した。ひとりも免れる者はなかった。すなわちバアシャがラマを築くために用いた石と材木を運びこさせ、アサ王はそれを用いて、ベニヤミンのゲバとミヅパを築いた。
Then King Asa made a proclamation to all Judah. No one was exempted. They carried away the stones and timbers of Ramah with which Baasha had been building up the city. Then King Asa used that building material to build up Geba of Benjamin and Mizpah.
23 アサのその他の事績とそのすべての勲功と、彼がしたすべての事および彼が建てた町々は、ユダの王の歴代志の書にしるされているではないか。彼は老年になって足を病んだ。
As for the other matters of Asa, all his might, all that he did, and the cities he built, are they not written in the book of the events of the kings of Judah? But during his old age he was diseased in his feet.
24 アサはその先祖と共に眠って、父ダビデの町に先祖と共に葬られ、その子ヨシャパテが代って王となった。
Then Asa slept with his ancestors and was buried with them in the city of David his father. Jehoshaphat his son became king in his place.
25 ユダの王アサの第二年にヤラベアムの子ナダブがイスラエルの王となって、二年イスラエルを治めた。
Nadab son of Jeroboam began to reign over Israel in the second year of Asa king of Judah; he reigned over Israel two years.
26 彼は主の目の前に悪を行い、その父の道に歩み、父がイスラエルに犯させた罪をおこなった。
He did what was evil in the sight of Yahweh and walked in the way of his father, and in his own sin, by which he led Israel to sin.
27 イッサカルの家のアヒヤの子バアシャは彼に対してむほんを企て、ペリシテびとに属するギベトンで彼を撃った。これはナダブとイスラエルが皆ギベトンを囲んでいたからである。
Baasha son of Ahijah, of the family of Issachar, conspired against Nadab; Baasha killed him down at Gibbethon, which belonged to the Philistines, for Nadab and all Israel were laying siege to Gibbethon.
28 こうしてユダの王アサの第三年にバアシャは彼を殺し、彼に代って王となった。
In the third year of Asa king of Judah, Baasha killed Nadab and became king in his place.
29 彼は王となるとすぐヤラベアムの全家を撃ち、息のある者をひとりもヤラベアムの家に残さず、ことごとく滅ぼした。主がそのしもべシロびとアヒヤによって言われた言葉のとおりであって、
As soon as he was king, Baasha killed all the family of Jeroboam. He left none of Jeroboam's descendants breathing; in this way he destroyed his royal line, just as Yahweh had spoken by his servant Ahijah the Shilonite,
30 これはヤラベアムがみずから犯し、またイスラエルに犯させた罪のため、また彼がイスラエルの神、主を怒らせたその怒りによるのであった。
for the sins of Jeroboam which he committed and by which he led Israel to sin, because he provoked Yahweh, the God of Israel, to anger.
31 ナダブのその他の事績と、彼がしたすべての事は、イスラエルの王の歴代志の書にしるされているではないか。
As for the other matters concerning Nadab, and all that he did, are they not written in the book of the events of the kings of Israel?
32 アサとイスラエルの王バアシャの間には一生の間戦争があった。
There was war between Asa and Baasha king of Israel all their days.
33 ユダの王アサの第三年にアヒヤの子バアシャはテルザでイスラエルの全地の王となって、二十四年世を治めた。
In the third year of Asa king of Judah, Baasha son of Ahijah began to reign over all Israel in Tirzah and he reigned twenty-four years.
34 彼は主の目の前に悪を行い、ヤラベアムの道に歩み、ヤラベアムがイスラエルに犯させた罪をおこなった。
He did what was evil in the sight of Yahweh and walked in the way of Jeroboam and in his sin by which he led Israel to sin.
