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 Josaphat slept with his fathers, and was buried with them in the city of David: and Joram his son reigned in his stead.
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。
2And he had brethren the sons of Josaphat, Azarias, and Jahiel, and Zacharias, and Azaria, and Michael, and Saphatias, all these were the sons of Josaphat king of Juda.
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。
3And their father gave them great gifts of silver, and of gold, and pensions, with strong cities in Juda: but the kingdom he gave to Joram, because he was the eldest.
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。
4So Joram rose up over the kingdom of his father: and when he had established himself, he slew all his brethren with the sword, and 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。
5Joram was two and thirty years old when he began to reign: and he reigned eight years in Jerusalem.
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 he walked in the ways of the kings of Israel, as the house of Achab had done: for his wife was a daughter of Achab, and he 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。
7But the Lord would not destroy the house of David: because of the covenant which he had made with him: and because he had promised to give a lamp to him, and to his sons for ever.
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 those days Edom revolted, from being subject to Juda, and made themselves a 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。
9And Joram went over with his princes, and all his cavalry with him, and rose in the night, and defeated the Edomites who had surrounded him, and all the captains of his cavalry.
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。
10However Edom revolted, from being under the dominion of Juda unto this day: at that time Lobna also revolted, from being under his hand. For he 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。
11Moreover he built also high places in the cities of Juda, and he made the inhabitants of Jerusalem to commit fornication, and Juda to transgress.
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、
12And there was a letter brought him from Elias the prophet, in which it was written: Thus saith the Lord the God of David thy father: Because thou hast not walked in the ways of Josaphat thy father nor in the ways of Asa king of Juda,
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 hast walked in the ways of the kings of Israel, and hast made Juda and the inhabitants of Jerusalem to commit fornication, imitating the fornication of the house of Achab, moreover also thou hast killed thy brethren, the house of thy father, better men than thyself,
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。
14Behold the Lord will strike thee with a great plague, with all thy people, and thy children, and thy wives, and all thy substance.
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 thou shalt be sick of a very grievous disease of thy bowels, till thy vital parts come out by little and little every day.
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。
16And the Lord stirred up against Joram the spirit of the Philistines, and of the Arabians, who border on the Ethiopians.
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。
17And they came up into the land of Juda, and wasted it, and they carried away all the substance that was found in the king’s house, his sons also, and his wives: so that there was no son left him but Joachaz, who was the 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。
18And besides all this the Lord struck him with an incurable disease in his 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。
19And as day came after day, and time rolled on, two whole years passed: then after being wasted with a long consumption, so as to void his very bowels, his disease ended with his life. And he died of a most wretched illness, and the people did not make a funeral for him according to the manner of burning, as they had done for his ancestors.
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。
20He was two and thirty years old when he began his reign, and he reigned eight years in Jerusalem. And he walked not rightly, and they buried him in the city of David: but not in the sepulchres of the kings.
