1ゼデキヤは二十一歳で王となり、エルサレムで十一年間治めた。彼の母の名はハムタルといい、リブナ出身のエレミヤの娘であった。
1Sedecias was one and twenty years old when he began to reign: and he reigned eleven years in Jerusalem: and the name of his mother was Amital, the daughter of Jeremias of Lobna.
2彼はエホヤキムが行ったすべてのことに倣い、主の目に悪いことを行った。
2And he did that which was evil in the eyes of the Lord, according to all that Joakim had done.
3エルサレムとユダにこのことが起こったのは主の怒りによるもので、ついに主は彼らを御前から投げ捨てられた。 ゼデキヤはバビロンの王に反逆した。
3For the wrath of the Lord was against Jerusalem, and against Juda, till he cast them out from his presence: and Sedecias revolted from the king of Babylon.
4ゼデキヤの治世第九年、第十の月の十日に、バビロンの王ネブカドネザルは全軍を率いてエルサレムに攻めて来た。彼らはその周囲に陣を張り、四方に包囲の塁を築いた。
4And it came to pass in the ninth year of his reign, in the tenth month, the tenth day of the month, that Nabuchodonosor the king of Babylon came, he and all his army, against Jerusalem, and they besieged it, and built forts against it round about.
5こうして町は、ゼデキヤ王の治世第十一年まで包囲された。
5And the city was besieged until the eleventh year of king Sedecias.
6第四の月の九日、町の飢饉は激しくなり、この地の民には食べ物がなくなった。
6And in the fourth month, the ninth day of the month, a famine overpowered the city: and there was no food for the people of the land.
7その時、町の城壁が破られ、兵士たちは皆、夜のうちに逃げ出した。彼らは王の庭のそばにある二重の城壁の間の門を通って、町を出た。カルデア人は町を四方から取り囲んでいた。兵士たちはアラバの方へ向かった。
7And the city was broken up, and the men of war fled, and went out of the city in the night by the way of the gate that is between the two walls, and leadeth to the king’s garden, (the Chaldeans besieging the city round about,) sad they went by the way that leadeth to the wilderness.
8しかし、カルデア人の軍隊は王を追い、エリコの平地でゼデキヤに追いついた。その全軍は彼のもとから散らされた。
8But the army of the Chaldeans pursued after the king: and they overtook Sedecias in the desert which is near Jericho: and all his companions were scattered from him.
9彼らは王を捕らえ、ハマテの地リブラにいるバビロンの王のもとへ連れて行った。王はゼデキヤに判決を下した。
9And when they had taken the king, they carried him to the king of Babylon to Reblatha, which is in the land of Emath: and he gave judgment upon him.
10バビロンの王はゼデキヤの息子たちを彼の目の前で殺した。また、リブラでユダのすべての高官たちを殺した。
10And the king of Babylon slew the sons of Sedecias before his eyes: and he slew all the princes of Juda in Reblatha.
11さらにゼデキヤの両目をえぐった。バビロンの王は彼を足かせにつなぎ、バビロンへ連れて行き、死ぬ日まで牢獄に入れておいた。
11And he put out the eyes of Sedecias, and bound him with fetters, and the king of Babylon brought him into Babylon, and he put him in prison till the day of his death.
12第五の月の十日、すなわちバビロンの王ネブカドネザルの治世第十九年に、バビロンの王に仕える親衛隊長ネブザラダンがエルサレムに来た。
12And in the fifth month, the tenth day of the month, the same is the nineteenth year of Nabuchodonosor, king of Babylon, came Nabuzardan the general of the army, who stood before the king of Babylon in Jerusalem.
13彼は主の家、王宮、エルサレムのすべての家々を火で焼いた。大きな家はすべて火で焼いた。
13And he burnt the house of the Lord, and the king’s house, and all the houses of Jerusalem, and every great house he burnt with fire.
14親衛隊長とともにいたカルデア人の全軍は、エルサレムを囲むすべての城壁を打ち壊した。
14And all the army of the Chaldeans that were with the general broke down all the wall of Jerusalem round about.
15親衛隊長ネブザラダンは、民の中の貧しい者の一部、町に残っていた民、バビロンの王に投降した者たち、残っていた群衆を捕囚として連れ去った。
15But Nabuzardan the general carried away captives some of the poor people, and of the rest of the common sort who remained in the city, and of the fugitives that were fled over to the king of Babylon, and the rest of the multitude.
16しかし、親衛隊長ネブザラダンは、この地の最も貧しい者の一部を、ぶどう畑を手入れする者と農夫として残した。
16But of the poor of the land, Nabuzardan the general left some for vinedressers, and for husbandmen.
17カルデア人は主の家にあった青銅の柱、台、青銅の海を砕き、その青銅をすべてバビロンへ運んだ。
17The Chaldeans also broke in pieces the brazen pillars that were in the house of the Lord, and the bases, and the sea of brass that was in the house of the Lord: and they carried all the brass of them to Babylon.
18また、鍋、灰取り、芯切りばさみ、鉢、さじ、礼拝に用いるすべての青銅の器を持ち去った。
18And they took the caldrons, and the fleshhooks, and the psalteries, and the bowls, and the little mortars, and all the brazen vessels that had been used in the ministry: and
19親衛隊長は、杯、火皿、鉢、鍋、燭台、さじ、注ぎの器を持ち去った。金でできたものは金として、銀でできたものは銀として持ち去った。
19The general took away the pitchers, and the censers, and the pots, and the basins, and the candlesticks, and the mortars, and the cups: as many as were of gold, in gold: and as many as were of silver, in silver:
20ソロモン王が主の家のために造った二本の柱、一つの海、台の下にあった十二頭の青銅の雄牛も持ち去った。これらすべての器の青銅は、量ることができないほどであった。
20And the two pillars, and one sea, and twelve oxen of brass that were under the bases, which king Solomon had made in the house of the Lord: there was no weight of the brass of all these vessels.
21一本の柱の高さは十八キュビトで、周囲の長さは十二キュビトであった。 その厚さは指四本分で、中は空洞であった。
21And concerning the pillars, one pillar was eighteen cubits high: and a cord of twelve cubits compassed it about: but the thickness thereof was four fingers, and it was hollow within.
22その上には青銅の柱頭があり、一つの柱頭の高さは五キュビトであった。 柱頭の周囲には、すべて青銅でできた網細工とざくろがあった。もう一方の柱も同じで、ざくろがついていた。
22And chapiters of brass were upon both: and the height of one chapiter was five cubits: and network, and pomegranates were upon the chapiters round about, all of brass. The same of the second pillar, and the pomegranates.
23外側には九十六個のざくろがあり、網細工の周囲全体では百個のざくろがあった。
23And there were ninety-six pomegranates hanging down: and the pomegranates being a hundred in all, were compassed with network.
24親衛隊長は祭司長セラヤ、第二の祭司ゼパニヤ、三人の門衛を捕らえた。
24And the general took Saraias the chief priest, and Sophonias the second priest, and the three keepers of the entry.
25また、町から、兵士たちを指揮していた一人の高官、町にいた王に謁見する七人の者、民を召集していた軍の長の書記、この地の民のうち町の中にいた六十人を捕らえた。
25He also took out of the city one eunuch that was chief over the men of war: and seven men of them that were near the king’s person, that were found in the city: and a scribe, an officer of the army who exercised the young soldiers: and threescore men of the people of the land, that were found in the midst of the city.
26親衛隊長ネブザラダンは彼らを捕らえ、リブラにいるバビロンの王のもとへ連れて行った。
26And Nabuzardan the general took them, and brought them to the king of Babylon, to Reblatha.
27バビロンの王はハマテの地リブラで彼らを打ち殺した。 こうしてユダは自分の地から捕囚として連れ去られた。
27And the king of Babylon struck them, and put them to death in Reblatha, in the land of Emath: and Juda was carried away captive out of his land.
28ネブカドネザルが捕囚として連れ去った民の数は、次のとおりである。 第七年に、ユダヤ人三千二十三人。
28This is the people whom Nabuchodonosor carried away captive: in the seventh year, three thousand and twenty-three Jews.
29ネブカドネザルの治世第十八年に、エルサレムから八百三十二人を捕囚として連れ去った。
29In the eighteenth year of Nabuchodonosor, eight hundred and thirty-two souls from Jerusalem.
30ネブカドネザルの治世第二十三年に、親衛隊長ネブザラダンがユダヤ人七百四十五人を捕囚として連れ去った。 全員で四千六百人であった。
30In the three and twentieth year of Nabuchodonosor, Nabuzardan the general carried away of the Jews seven hundred and forty-five souls. So all the souls were four thousand six hundred.
31ユダの王エホヤキンが捕囚となってから第三十七年、第十二の月の二十五日に、バビロンの王エビル・メロダクは、その治世第一年に、ユダの王エホヤキンに恩赦を与え、牢獄から出した。
31And it came to pass in the seven and thirtieth year of the captivity of Joachin king of Juda, in the twelfth month, the five and twentieth day of the month, that Evilmerodach king of Babylon, in the first year of his reign, lifted up the head of Joachin king of Juda, and brought him forth out of prison.
32彼に親切に語り、バビロンで彼とともにいた王たちの王座よりも高い王座を与えた。
32And he spoke kindly to him, and he set his throne above the thrones of the kings that were with him in Babylon.
33エホヤキンは囚人の服を着替え、生涯いつも王の前で食事をした。
33And he changed his prison garments, and he ate bread before him always all the days of his life.
34彼にはバビロンの王から、日々の必要に応じた一定の食料が、死ぬ日まで、生涯にわたって毎日与えられた。
34And for his diet a continual provision was allowed him by the king of Babylon, every day a portion, until the day of his death, all the days of his life.
