1マナセは十二歳で王となり、エルサレムで五十五年間治めた。
1Manasseh was twelve years old when he became king, and he reigned in Jerusalem fifty-five years.
2彼は、主がイスラエルの子らの前から追い出された国々の忌まわしい行いに従って、主の目に悪を行った。
2And he did evil in the sight of the LORD by following the abominations of the nations that the LORD had driven out before the Israelites.
3彼は父ヒゼキヤが壊した高き所を再び築き、バアルのための祭壇を築き、アシェラ像を造り、天の全軍勢を拝み、これらに仕えた。
3For he rebuilt the high places that his father Hezekiah had torn down, and he raised up altars for the Baals and made Asherah poles. And he worshiped and served all the host of heaven.
4また、主の家に祭壇を築いた。そこについて主は、「エルサレムにわたしの名がとこしえにあるようにする」と言われていた。
4Manasseh also built altars in the house of the LORD, of which the LORD had said, “My Name will remain in Jerusalem forever.”
5彼は主の家の二つの庭に、天の全軍勢のための祭壇を築いた。
5In both courtyards of the house of the LORD, he built altars to all the host of heaven.
6彼はまた、ベン・ヒノムの谷で自分の子どもたちを火の中を通らせ、魔法を使い、まじないをし、呪術を用い、霊媒や口寄せと関わった。彼は主の目に悪とされることを多く行い、主を怒らせた。
6He sacrificed his sons in the fire in the Valley of Hinnom. He practiced sorcery, divination, and witchcraft, and consulted mediums and spiritists. He did great evil in the sight of the LORD, provoking Him to anger.
7彼は自分が造った偶像を神の家に置いた。そこについて、神はダビデとその子ソロモンに言われていた。「わたしがイスラエルのすべての部族の中から選んだこの家とエルサレムに、わたしの名をとこしえに置く。
7Manasseh even took the carved image he had made and set it up in the house of God, of which God had said to David and his son Solomon, “In this temple and in Jerusalem, which I have chosen out of all the tribes of Israel, I will establish My Name forever.
8もし彼らが、モーセの手を通して伝えられたすべての律法と掟と法に従って、わたしが彼らに命じたすべてのことを注意深く行うなら、わたしは二度と、彼らの父祖たちに定めたその地からイスラエルの足をその地から移すことはない。」
8I will never again cause the feet of the Israelites to leave the land that I assigned to your fathers, if only they are careful to do all that I have commanded them through Moses—all the laws, statutes, and judgments.”
9マナセはユダとエルサレムの住民を迷わせ、主がイスラエルの子らの前から滅ぼされた国々よりもさらに悪いことを行わせた。
9So Manasseh led the people of Judah and Jerusalem astray, so that they did greater evil than the nations that the LORD had destroyed before the Israelites.
10主はマナセとその民に語りかけられたが、彼らは耳を傾けなかった。
10And the LORD spoke to Manasseh and his people, but they did not listen.
11それゆえ、主はアッシリアの王の軍隊の長たちを彼らに差し向けられた。彼らはマナセを鎖で捕らえ、青銅の足枷で縛ってバビロンへ連れて行った。
11So the LORD brought against them the military commanders of the king of Assyria, who captured Manasseh, put a hook in his nose, bound him with bronze shackles, and took him to Babylon.
12苦しみの中で、彼は自分の神、主に願い求め、その父祖たちの神の御前で大いにへりくだった。
12And in his distress, Manasseh sought the favor of the LORD his God and earnestly humbled himself before the God of his fathers.
13彼が神に祈ったとき、神はその願いと祈りを聞き入れ、彼をエルサレムの彼の王国に帰らせた。そのとき、マナセは主こそが神であることを知った。
13And when he prayed to Him, the LORD received his plea and heard his petition; so He brought him back to Jerusalem and to his kingdom. Then Manasseh knew that the LORD is God.
14この後、彼はダビデの町の外側に城壁を築いた。それはギホンの西、谷にあり、魚の門の入り口まで続いており、オフェルの周囲を巡って、それを非常に高くそびえさせた。また、彼はユダのすべての防備の町々に勇士の長たちを置いた。
14After this, Manasseh rebuilt the outer wall of the City of David from west of Gihon in the valley to the entrance of the Fish Gate, and he brought it around the hill of Ophel and heightened it considerably. He also stationed military commanders in all the fortified cities of Judah.
15彼は主の家から異国の神々や偶像を取り除き、また主の家の山やエルサレムに築いたすべての祭壇を取り除いて、それらを町の外に投げ捨てた。
15He removed the foreign gods and the idol from the house of the LORD, along with all the altars he had built on the temple mount and in Jerusalem, and he dumped them outside the city.
16彼は主の祭壇を元通りにし、その上で和解のいけにえと感謝のいけにえをささげ、ユダに命じてイスラエルの神、主に仕えさせた。
16Then he restored the altar of the LORD and sacrificed peace offerings and thank offerings on it, and he told Judah to serve the LORD, the God of Israel.
17それでも、民はなお高き所でいけにえをささげたが、それは彼らの神、主に対してだけであった。
17Nevertheless, the people still sacrificed at the high places, but only to the LORD their God.
18マナセのその他の事績、彼の神への祈り、またイスラエルの神、主の御名によって彼に語りかけた先見者たちの言葉は、見よ、イスラエルの王たちの歴史に記されている。
18As for the rest of the acts of Manasseh, along with his prayer to his God and the words of the seers who spoke to him in the name of the LORD, the God of Israel, they are indeed written in the Chronicles of the Kings of Israel.
19彼の祈り、神がどのようにその願いを聞き入れられたか、彼のすべての罪と背信、そして彼がへりくだる前に高き所を築き、アシェラ像や刻んだ像を立てた場所については、見よ、ホザイ の歴史に記されている。
19His prayer and how God received his plea, as well as all his sin and unfaithfulness, and the sites where he built high places and set up Asherah poles and idols before he humbled himself, they are indeed written in the Records of the Seers.
20マナセはその父祖たちとともに眠り、人々は彼を彼の家で葬った。その子アモンが代わって王となった。
20And Manasseh rested with his fathers and was buried at his palace. And his son Amon reigned in his place.
21アモンは二十二歳で王となり、エルサレムで二年間治めた。
21Amon was twenty-two years old when he became king, and he reigned in Jerusalem two years.
22彼は、その父マナセが行ったように、主の目に悪を行った。アモンは父マナセが造ったすべての刻んだ像にいけにえをささげ、これらに仕えた。
22And he did evil in the sight of the LORD, as his father Manasseh had done. Amon served and sacrificed to all the idols that his father Manasseh had made,
23彼はその父マナセがへりくだったようには主の御前でへりくだらず、アモンはますます罪を重ねた。
23but he did not humble himself before the LORD as his father Manasseh had done; instead, Amon increased his guilt.
24彼のしもべたちは彼に対して陰謀を企て、彼自身の家の中で彼を殺した。
24Then the servants of Amon conspired against him and killed him in his palace.
25しかし、その地の民はアモン王に対して陰謀を企てた者たちをすべて打ち殺し、その地の民はその子ヨシヤを彼に代わって王とした。
25But the people of the land killed all those who had conspired against King Amon, and they made his son Josiah king in his place.
