1イエフの第七年にエホアシュがユダの王となり、エルサレムで四十年間治めた。母の名はベエルシェバ出身のツィビヤであった。
1In the seventh year of Jehu, Joash became king, and he reigned in Jerusalem forty years. His mother’s name was Zibiah; she was from Beersheba.
2エホアシュは、祭司エホヤダが教え導いていた間、主の目にかなうことを行った。
2And Joash did what was right in the eyes of the LORD all the days he was instructed by Jehoiada the priest.
3しかし高き所は取り除かれず、民はまだ高き所でいけにえをささげ、香をたいていた。
3Nevertheless, the high places were not removed; the people continued sacrificing and burning incense there.
4エホアシュは祭司たちに言った。「主の家に持ち込まれる聖なる銀、すなわち通用する銀、各人に課された評価額の銀 、また人が進んで主の家に持って来るすべての銀を、
4Then Joash said to the priests, “Collect all the money brought as sacred gifts into the house of the LORD—the census money, the money from vows, and the money brought voluntarily into the house of the LORD.
5祭司たちはそれぞれ寄進者から受け取り、神殿の破損が見つかったところはどこでも修理させよ。」
5Let every priest receive it from his constituency, and let it be used to repair any damage found in the temple.”
6しかし、エホアシュ王の第二十三年になっても、祭司たちは家の破れを修理していなかった。
6By the twenty-third year of the reign of Joash, however, the priests had not yet repaired the damage to the temple.
7そこでエホアシュ王は祭司エホヤダと他の祭司たちを呼び、「なぜ神殿の破損を修理しないのか。これからは寄進者から銀を受け取らず、修理のために引き渡せ」と命じた。
7So King Joash called Jehoiada and the other priests and said, “Why have you not repaired the damage to the temple? Now, therefore, take no more money from your constituency, but hand it over for the repair of the temple.”
8祭司たちは、民からこれ以上銀を受け取らず、神殿修理の責任も負わないことに同意した。
8So the priests agreed that they would not receive money from the people and that they would not repair the temple themselves.
9しかし祭司エホヤダは一つの箱を取り、その蓋に穴を開け、主の家に入って来る者の右側、祭壇のそばにそれを置いた。門を守る祭司たちは、主の家に持ち込まれたすべての銀をその中に入れた。
9Then Jehoiada the priest took a chest, bored a hole in its lid, and set it beside the altar on the right side as one enters the house of the LORD. There the priests who guarded the threshold put all the money brought into the house of the LORD.
10箱に銀が多くたまると、王の書記官と大祭司が来て、主の家に集まった銀を袋に入れて数えた。
10Whenever they saw that there was a large amount of money in the chest, the royal scribe and the high priest would go up, count the money brought into the house of the LORD, and tie it up in bags.
11彼らは量られた銀を、仕事をする者たち、すなわち主の家を監督する者たちの手に渡し、彼らはそれを主の家で働く大工や建築者たち、
11Then they would put the counted money into the hands of those who supervised the work on the house of the LORD, who in turn would pay those doing the work—the carpenters, builders,
12石工、石を切り出す者たちに支払い、また主の家の破れを修理するための木材と切り石を買うため、そして家を修理するために費やされるすべてのために支払った。
12masons, and stonecutters. They also purchased timber and dressed stone to repair the damage to the house of the LORD, and they paid the other expenses of the temple repairs.
13しかし、主の家に持ち込まれた銀から、主の家のための銀の杯、芯切りばさみ、鉢、ラッパ、金の器や銀の器は何も造られなかった。
13However, the money brought into the house of the LORD was not used for making silver basins, wick trimmers, sprinkling bowls, trumpets, or any articles of gold or silver for the house of the LORD.
14彼らはそれを仕事をする者たちに与え、それで主の家を修理したからである。
14Instead, it was paid to those doing the work, and with it they repaired the house of the LORD.
15また、工事をする者たちに支払う銀を託された人々には、会計報告を求めなかった。彼らが誠実に働いていたからである。
15No accounting was required from the men who received the money to pay the workmen, because they acted with integrity.
16咎のささげ物の銀と罪のささげ物の銀は、主の家には持ち込まれなかった。それは祭司たちのものであった。
16The money from the guilt offerings and sin offerings was not brought into the house of the LORD; it belonged to the priests.
17そのころ、アラムの王ハザエルはガテに攻め上ってこれを奪い、さらにエルサレムへ攻め上る決意をした。
17At that time Hazael king of Aram marched up and fought against Gath and captured it. Then he decided to attack Jerusalem.
18ユダの王エホアシュは、彼の先祖であるユダの王たち、ヨシャファテ、エホラム、アハズヤが聖別したすべての聖なるもの、彼自身の聖なるもの、および主の家の宝物庫と王の家で見つかったすべての金を取り、それをアラムの王ハザエルに送った。すると彼はエルサレムから去って行った。
18So King Joash of Judah took all the sacred objects dedicated by his fathers—Jehoshaphat, Jehoram, and Ahaziah, the kings of Judah—along with his own consecrated items and all the gold found in the treasuries of the house of the LORD and the royal palace, and he sent them to Hazael king of Aram. So Hazael withdrew from Jerusalem.
19ヨアシュのその他の事績と、彼が行ったすべてのことは、ユダの王たちの年代記の書に記されているではないか。
19As for the rest of the acts of Joash, along with all his accomplishments, are they not written in the Book of the Chronicles of the Kings of Judah?
20彼のしもべたちは立ち上がって陰謀を企て、シラへ下るミロの家でヨアシュを打ち殺した。
20And the servants of Joash rose up and formed a conspiracy and killed him at Beth-millo, on the road down to Silla.
21シメアテの息子ヨザカルと、ショメルの息子エホザバド、すなわち彼のしもべたちが彼を打ったので、彼は死んだ。そして彼らは彼をダビデの町で先祖とともに葬り、その息子アマツヤが代わって王となった。
21His servants Jozabad son of Shimeath and Jehozabad son of Shomer struck him down, and he died. And they buried him with his fathers in the City of David, and his son Amaziah reigned in his place.
