1マナセが王となったときは十二歳で、エルサレムで五十五年間治めた。彼の母の名はヘフジバといった。
1Manasseh was twelve years old when he began to reign; and he reigned five and fifty years in Jerusalem; and his mother's name was Hephzi-bah.
2彼は、主がイスラエルの子らの前から追い払われた国々の忌むべきことの通りに、主の目に悪とされることを行った。
2And he did that which was evil in the sight of the LORD, after the abominations of the nations, whom the LORD cast out before the children of Israel.
3彼は父ヒゼキヤが打ち壊した高き所を再び建て、アハブがイスラエルの王として行ったように、バアルのために祭壇を築き、アシェラ像を造り、天のすべての軍勢を拝み、これらに仕えた。
3For he built again the high places which Hezekiah his father had destroyed; and he reared up altars for Baal, and made an Asherah, as did Ahab king of Israel, and worshipped all the host of heaven, and served them.
4彼は、主が「エルサレムにわたしの名を置く」と言われた主の家に祭壇を築いた。
4And he built altars in the house of the LORD, whereof the LORD said: 'In Jerusalem will I put My name.'
5彼は主の家の二つの庭に、天のすべての軍勢のために祭壇を築いた。
5And he built altars for all the host of heaven in the two courts of the house of the LORD.
6彼は自分の息子を火の中を通らせ、まじないと占いを行い、霊媒や口寄せに伺いを立てた。主の目に悪とされることを重ね、主を怒らせた。
6And he made his son to pass through the fire, and practised soothsaying, and used enchantments, and appointed them that divined by a ghost or a familiar spirit: he wrought much evil in the sight of the LORD, to provoke Him.
7彼は自分が造ったアシェラの刻まれた像を家に置いた。この家については、主がダビデとその息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。
7And he set the graven image of Asherah, that he had made, in the house of which the LORD said to David and to Solomon his son: 'In this house, and in Jerusalem, which I have chosen out of all the tribes of Israel, will I put My name for ever;
8もし彼らが、わたしが彼らに命じたすべてのこと、およびわたしのしもべモーセが彼らに命じたすべての律法に従って注意深く行うなら、わたしはイスラエルの足を、わたしが彼らの先祖に与えた地から二度とさまよい出させることはしない。」
8neither will I cause the feet of Israel to wander any more out of the land which I gave their fathers; if only they will observe to do according to all that I have commanded them, and according to all the law that My servant Moses commanded them.'
9しかし彼らは聞き入れなかった。マナセは彼らを惑わし、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多くの悪を行わせた。
9But they hearkened not; and Manasseh seduced them to do that which is evil more than did the nations, whom the LORD destroyed before the children of Israel.
10主はそのしもべである預言者たちを通して語られた。
10And the LORD spoke by His servants the prophets, saying:
11「ユダの王マナセがこれらの忌むべきことを行い、彼より前にいたアモリ人が行ったすべてのことよりも悪を行い、彼が造った偶像によってユダにも罪を犯させたので、
11'Because Manasseh king of Judah hath done these abominations, and hath done wickedly above all that the Amorites did, that were before him, and hath made Judah also to sin with his idols;
12それゆえ、イスラエルの神、主はこう言われる。『見よ、わたしはエルサレムとユダにわざわいをもたらす。それを聞く者は皆、両耳が鳴るであろう。
12therefore thus saith the LORD, the God of Israel: Behold, I bring such evil upon Jerusalem and Judah, that whosoever heareth of it, both his ears shall tingle.
13わたしはエルサレムの上に、サマリアの測り縄とアハブの家の下げ振りを伸ばす。人が皿をぬぐい、ぬぐってそれを伏せるように、わたしはエルサレムをぬぐい去る。
13And I will stretch over Jerusalem the line of Samaria, and the plummet of the house of Ahab; and I will wipe Jerusalem as a man wipeth a dish, wiping it and turning it upside down.
14わたしは、わたしの所有の民の残りを捨て、敵の手に渡す。彼らはすべての敵のえじきとなり、略奪される。
14And I will cast off the remnant of Mine inheritance, and deliver them into the hand of their enemies; and they shall become a prey and a spoil to all their enemies;
15彼らがわたしの目に悪とされることを行い、先祖がエジプトから出た日から今日まで、わたしを怒らせ続けてきたからである。』」
15because they have done that which is evil in My sight, and have provoked Me, since the day their fathers came forth out of Egypt, even unto this day.'
16マナセは、ユダに罪を犯させて主の目に悪を行ったばかりでなく、罪のない者の血をおびただしく流し、エルサレムを端から端まで血で満たした。
16Moreover Manasseh shed innocent blood very much, till he had filled Jerusalem from one end to another; beside his sin wherewith he made Judah to sin, in doing that which was evil in the sight of the LORD.
17マナセのその他の事績、彼が行ったすべてのこと、彼が犯した罪は、ユダの王たちの年代記の書に記されているではないか。
17Now the rest of the acts of Manasseh, and all that he did, and his sin that he sinned, are they not written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Judah?
18マナセは先祖とともに眠りにつき、彼自身の家の園、すなわちウザの園に葬られた。そしてその息子アモンが代わって王となった。
18And Manasseh slept with his fathers, and was buried in the garden of his own house, in the garden of Uzza; and Amon his son reigned in his stead.
19アモンが王となったときは二十二歳で、エルサレムで二年間治めた。彼の母の名はメシュレメテといい、ヨトバのハルツの娘であった。
19Amon was twenty and two years old when he began to reign; and he reigned two years in Jerusalem; and his mother's name was Meshullemeth the daughter of Haruz of Jotbah.
20彼は父マナセが行ったように、主の目に悪とされることを行った。
20And he did that which was evil in the sight of the LORD, as did Manasseh his father.
21彼は父が歩んだすべての道を歩み、父が仕えた偶像に仕え、これらを拝んだ。
21And he walked in all the way that his father walked in, and served the idols that his father served, and worshipped them.
22彼は彼の先祖の神、主を捨て、主の道を歩まなかった。
22And he forsook the LORD, the God of his fathers, and walked not in the way of the LORD.
23アモンのしもべたちは彼に対して陰謀を企て、王を彼自身の家で殺した。
23And the servants of Amon conspired against him, and put the king to death in his own house.
24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、その地の民はその息子ヨシヤを彼の代わりに王とした。
24But the people of the land slew all them that had conspired against king Amon; and the people of the land made Josiah his son king in his stead.
25アモンが行ったその他の事績は、ユダの王たちの年代記の書に記されているではないか。
25Now the rest of the acts of Amon which he did, are they not written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Judah?
26彼はウザの園にある彼自身の墓に葬られた。そしてその息子ヨシヤが代わって王となった。
26And he was buried in his sepulchre in the garden of Uzza; and Josiah his son reigned in his stead.
