1ヨシャファテはその父祖たちとともに眠り、ダビデの町にその父祖たちとともに葬られた。その子エホラムが代わって王となった。
1And Jehoshaphat rested with his fathers and was buried with them in the City of David. And his son Jehoram reigned in his place.
2彼には兄弟たち、すなわちヨシャファテの子であるアザルヤ、エヒエル、ゼカリヤ、アザルヤ、ミカエル、シェファティヤがいた。これらはみなイスラエルの王ヨシャファテの子らであった。
2Jehoram’s brothers, the sons of Jehoshaphat, were Azariah, Jehiel, Zechariah, Azariah, Michael, and Shephatiah; these were all sons of Jehoshaphat king of Israel.
3彼らの父は、銀、金、貴重な品々の大きな贈り物とともに、ユダの防備の町々を彼らに与えたが、王国はエホラムに与えた。彼が長子だったからである。
3Their father had given them many gifts of silver and gold and precious things, as well as the fortified cities in Judah; but he gave the kingdom to Jehoram because he was the firstborn.
4エホラムは王権を握って地位を固めると、自分のすべての兄弟たちと、イスラエルの君たちの何人かを剣で殺した。
4When Jehoram had established himself over his father’s kingdom, he strengthened himself by putting to the sword all his brothers along with some of the princes of Israel.
5エホラムは三十二歳で王となり、エルサレムで八年間治めた。
5Jehoram was thirty-two years old when he became king, and he reigned in Jerusalem eight years.
6彼は、アハブの家がしたように、イスラエルの王たちの道を歩んだ。彼がアハブの娘を妻としていたからである。彼は主の目に悪を行った。
6And Jehoram walked in the ways of the kings of Israel, just as the house of Ahab had done. For he married a daughter of Ahab and did evil in the sight of the LORD.
7しかし主はダビデと結ばれた契約のゆえに、ダビデの家を滅ぼそうとはされなかった。主は、ダビデとその子らにとこしえにともしびを与えると約束されていたからである。
7Yet the LORD was unwilling to destroy the house of David, because of the covenant He had made with David, and since He had promised to maintain a lamp for David and his descendants forever.
8彼の時代に、エドムがユダの支配から背き、自分たちの王を立てた。
8In the days of Jehoram, Edom rebelled against the hand of Judah and appointed their own king.
9そこでエホラムは指揮官たちとすべての戦車を率いて出陣した。彼は夜に起き上がり、自分を取り囲んでいたエドム人と戦車の長たちを打った。
9So Jehoram crossed into Edom with his officers and all his chariots. When the Edomites surrounded him and his chariot commanders, he rose up and attacked by night.
10こうしてエドムはユダの支配から背いて、今日に至っている。その同じ時にリブナも彼の支配から背いた。彼が父祖の神、主を捨てたからである。
10So to this day Edom has been in rebellion against the hand of Judah. Likewise, Libnah rebelled against his rule at the same time, because Jehoram had forsaken the LORD, the God of his fathers.
11さらに彼はユダの山々に高き所を造り、エルサレムの住民に淫行を行わせ、ユダを迷わせた。
11Jehoram had also built high places on the hills of Judah; he had caused the people of Jerusalem to prostitute themselves and had led Judah astray.
12預言者エリヤから彼に手紙が届いた。そこにはこう書かれていた。「あなたの父祖ダビデの神、主はこう言われる。『あなたは父ヨシャファテの道や、ユダの王アサの道を歩まず、
12Then a letter came to Jehoram from Elijah the prophet, which stated: “This is what the LORD, the God of your father David, says: ‘You have not walked in the ways of your father Jehoshaphat or of Asa king of Judah,
13イスラエルの王たちの道を歩み、アハブの家がしたようにユダとエルサレムの住民に淫行を行わせ、また、あなたより善良であったあなたの父の家、あなたの兄弟たちを殺した。
13but you have walked in the ways of the kings of Israel and have caused Judah and the people of Jerusalem to prostitute themselves, just as the house of Ahab prostituted itself. You have also killed your brothers, your father’s family, who were better than you.
14見よ。主は大きな疫病をもってあなたの民、あなたの子ら、あなたの妻たち、そしてあなたのすべての財産を打たれる。
14So behold, the LORD is about to strike your people, your sons, your wives, and all your possessions with a serious blow.
15そしてあなたは腸の重い病にかかり、その病のゆえに、ついには日を追うごとにあなたの腸が抜け落ちるようになる。』」
15And day after day you yourself will suffer from a severe illness, a disease of your bowels, until it causes your bowels to come out.’”
16主はエホラムに対して、ペリシテ人と、エチオピア人の近くに住むアラビア人の心を奮い立たせられた。
16Then the LORD stirred against Jehoram the spirit of the Philistines and Arabs who lived near the Cushites.
17彼らはユダに攻め上ってそこに押し入り、王の家で見つかったすべての財産を、彼の子らや妻たちとともに奪い去った。そのため、彼には末っ子のエホアハズを除いては、一人の子も残されなかった。
17So they went to war against Judah, invaded it, and carried off all the possessions found in the king’s palace, along with his sons and wives; not a son was left to him except Jehoahaz, his youngest.
18このすべての後、主は不治の病をもって彼の腸を打たれた。
18After all this, the LORD afflicted Jehoram with an incurable disease of the bowels.
19時が経ち、二年目の終わりになって、彼の病のゆえに彼の腸は抜け落ち、彼は非常に重い病で死んだ。彼の民は、その父祖たちにしたような火を彼のためにたくことはしなかった。
19This continued day after day until two full years had passed. Finally, his intestines came out because of his disease, and he died in severe pain. And his people did not make a fire in his honor as they had done for his fathers.
20彼は三十二歳で王となり、エルサレムで八年間治めた。彼はだれにも惜しまれずに世を去った。人々は彼をダビデの町に葬ったが、王たちの墓には入れなかった。
20Jehoram was thirty-two years old when he became king, and he reigned in Jerusalem eight years. He died, to no one’s regret, and was buried in the City of David, but not in the tombs of the kings.
