1And the king sent, and they gathered unto him all the elders of Judah and of Jerusalem.
1そこで王は人を遣わし、彼らはユダとエルサレムのすべての長老たちを彼のもとに集めた。
2And the king went up into the house of the LORD , and all the men of Judah and all the inhabitants of Jerusalem with him, and the priests, and the prophets, and all the people, both small and great: and he read in their ears all the words of the book of the covenant which was found in the house of the LORD .
2王は主の家へ上って行き、ユダのすべての男たち、エルサレムのすべての住民、祭司たち、預言者たち、および小さい者から大きい者まで、すべての民も彼とともに行った。彼は主の家で見つかった契約の書のすべての言葉を彼らの耳に読み聞かせた。
3¶ And the king stood by a pillar, and made a covenant before the LORD , to walk after the LORD , and to keep his commandments and his testimonies and his statutes with all their heart and all their soul, to perform the words of this covenant that were written in this book. And all the people stood to the covenant.
3王は柱のそばに立ち、主の御前で契約を結んだ。心を尽くし、命を尽くして主に従い、主の戒めとあかしと定めを守り、この書に記された契約の言葉を実行することを誓った。すべての民もその契約に加わった。
4And the king commanded Hilkiah the high priest, and the priests of the second order, and the keepers of the door, to bring forth out of the temple of the LORD all the vessels that were made for Baal, and for the grove, and for all the host of heaven: and he burned them without Jerusalem in the fields of Kidron, and carried the ashes of them unto Beth-el.
4王は大祭司ヒルキヤ、第二位の祭司たち、および門を守る者たちに命じて、バアルのため、アシェラのため、そして天のすべての軍勢のために造られたすべての器を主の神殿から持ち出させた。彼はそれらをエルサレムの外のキデロンの野で焼き、その灰をベテルへ運んだ。
5And he put down the idolatrous priests, whom the kings of Judah had ordained to burn incense in the high places in the cities of Judah, and in the places round about Jerusalem; them also that burned incense unto Baal, to the sun, and to the moon, and to the planets, and to all the host of heaven.
5彼は、ユダの王たちがユダの町々の高き所とエルサレムの周辺で香をたくために任命した、偶像に仕える祭司たちを取り除き、またバアル、太陽、月、惑星、天のすべての軍勢に香をたく者たちを取り除いた。
6And he brought out the grove from the house of the LORD , without Jerusalem, unto the brook Kidron, and burned it at the brook Kidron, and stamped it small to powder, and cast the powder thereof upon the graves of the children of the people.
6彼は主の家からアシェラ像をエルサレムの外のキデロンの川に持ち出し、キデロンの川でそれを焼き、粉々に打ち砕いてちりにし、そのちりを一般の民の墓の上にまき散らした。

8And he brought all the priests out of the cities of Judah, and defiled the high places where the priests had burned incense, from Geba to Beer-sheba, and brake down the high places of the gates that were in the entering in of the gate of Joshua the governor of the city, which were on a man’s left hand at the gate of the city.
8彼はユダの町々からすべての祭司を連れ出し、ゲバからベエルシェバに至るまで、祭司たちが香をたいていた高き所を汚した。彼は町の長官ヨシュアの門の入り口にある、門の高き所を打ち壊した。それは町の門に入る人の左手にあった。
9Nevertheless the priests of the high places came not up to the altar of the LORD in Jerusalem, but they did eat of the unleavened bread among their brethren.
9しかし、高き所の祭司たちはエルサレムにある主の祭壇には上らず、その兄弟たちの間で種なしパンを食べた。
10And he defiled Topheth, which is in the valley of the children of Hinnom, that no man might make his son or his daughter to pass through the fire to Molech.
10彼はまた、ベン・ヒンノムの谷にあるトフェテを汚し、だれもモレクのために自分の息子や娘を火の中を通らせることがないようにした。
11And he took away the horses that the kings of Judah had given to the sun, at the entering in of the house of the LORD , by the chamber of Nathan-melech the chamberlain, which was in the suburbs, and burned the chariots of the sun with fire.

12And the altars that were on the top of the upper chamber of Ahaz, which the kings of Judah had made, and the altars which Manasseh had made in the two courts of the house of the LORD , did the king beat down, and brake them down from thence, and cast the dust of them into the brook Kidron.
12ユダの王たちが造ったアハズの上の部屋の屋上にある祭壇と、マナセが主の家の二つの庭に造った祭壇を、王は打ち壊し、そこからそれらを砕き下ろし、そのちりをキデロンの川に投げ捨てた。
13And the high places that were before Jerusalem, which were on the right hand of the mount of corruption, which Solomon the king of Israel had builded for Ashtoreth the abomination of the Zidonians, and for Chemosh the abomination of the Moabites, and for Milcom the abomination of the children of Ammon, did the king defile.
13イスラエルの王ソロモンがシドン人の忌むべきものアシュトレテのため、モアブの忌むべきものケモシュのため、アンモンの子らの忌むべきものミルコムのために建てた、エルサレムの前、滅びの山の右側にあった高き所を、王は汚した。
14And he brake in pieces the images, and cut down the groves, and filled their places with the bones of men.

15¶ Moreover the altar that was at Beth-el, and the high place which Jeroboam the son of Nebat, who made Israel to sin, had made, both that altar and the high place he brake down, and burned the high place, and stamped it small to powder, and burned the grove.
15イスラエルに罪を犯させたネバテの息子ヤロブアムが造った、ベテルにある祭壇、その高き所について言えば、彼はその祭壇と高き所を打ち壊し、高き所を焼いて粉々に打ち砕いてちりにし、アシェラ像を焼いた。
16And as Josiah turned himself, he spied the sepulchres that were there in the mount, and sent, and took the bones out of the sepulchres, and burned them upon the altar, and polluted it, according to the word of the LORD which the man of God proclaimed, who proclaimed these words.
16ヨシヤが振り向くと、山に墓が見えた。そこで人を遣わし、墓から骨を取り出して祭壇の上で焼き、祭壇を汚した。これは、これらのことを告げた神の人が宣べた主の言葉のとおりであった。
17Then he said, What title is that that I see? And the men of the city told him, It is the sepulchre of the man of God, which came from Judah, and proclaimed these things that thou hast done against the altar of Beth-el.
17それから彼は、「わたしが見ているこの記念碑は何だ」と言った。 町の男たちは彼に告げた。「それはユダから来て、あなたがベテルの祭壇に対して行ったこれらのことを告げ知らせた神の人の墓です。」
18And he said, Let him alone; let no man move his bones. So they let his bones alone, with the bones of the prophet that came out of Samaria.
18彼は言った。「そのままにしておけ。だれも彼の骨を動かしてはならない。」そこで彼らは、サマリアから来た預言者の骨とともに、彼の骨をそのままにしておいた。
19And all the houses also of the high places that were in the cities of Samaria, which the kings of Israel had made to provoke the Lord to anger, Josiah took away, and did to them according to all the acts that he had done in Beth-el.
19イスラエルの王たちが造って主を怒らせた、サマリアの町々にあった高き所のすべての家も、ヨシヤは取り除き、彼がベテルで行ったすべてのことと同様にそれらに対して行った。
20And he slew all the priests of the high places that were there upon the altars, and burned men’s bones upon them, and returned to Jerusalem.
20彼はそこにいた高き所のすべての祭司を祭壇の上で殺し、その上で人の骨を焼き、それからエルサレムへ帰った。
21¶ And the king commanded all the people, saying, Keep the passover unto the LORD your God, as it is written in the book of this covenant.
21王はすべての民に命じて言った。「この契約の書に書かれているように、あなたがたの神、主に過越の祭りを守りなさい。」
22Surely there was not holden such a passover from the days of the judges that judged Israel, nor in all the days of the kings of Israel, nor of the kings of Judah;
22イスラエルをさばいた士師たちの時代から、イスラエルの王たちの時代、およびユダの王たちの時代を通じて、このような過越の祭りが守られたことはなかったからである。
23But in the eighteenth year of king Josiah, wherein this passover was holden to the LORD in Jerusalem.
23しかし、ヨシヤ王の第十八年に、この過越の祭りがエルサレムで主に対して守られた。
24¶ Moreover the workers with familiar spirits, and the wizards, and the images, and the idols, and all the abominations that were spied in the land of Judah and in Jerusalem, did Josiah put away, that he might perform the words of the law which were written in the book that Hilkiah the priest found in the house of the LORD .
24さらにヨシヤは、霊媒、口寄せ、テラフィム 、偶像、およびユダの地とエルサレムに見られたすべての忌むべきものを取り除いた。祭司ヒルキヤが主の家で見つけた書に記された律法の言葉を実行するためであった。
25And like unto him was there no king before him, that turned to the LORD with all his heart, and with all his soul, and with all his might, according to all the law of Moses; neither after him arose there any like him.
25ヨシヤのように、心を尽くし、命を尽くし、力を尽くして、モーセの律法のすべてに従い、主に立ち返った王は、彼の前にも後にもいなかった。
26¶ Notwithstanding the LORD turned not from the fierceness of his great wrath, wherewith his anger was kindled against Judah, because of all the provocations that Manasseh had provoked him withal.
26それにもかかわらず、主はその燃える大いなる激怒から立ち返られなかった。マナセが主を怒らせたすべての挑発のために、主の怒りはユダに向かって燃え上がっていたからである。
27And the LORD said, I will remove Judah also out of my sight, as I have removed Israel, and will cast off this city Jerusalem which I have chosen, and the house of which I said, My name shall be there.
27主は言われた。「わたしはイスラエルを取り除いたように、ユダもわたしの前から取り除き、わたしが選んだこの町エルサレムと、『わたしの名がそこにある』とわたしが言った家を捨てる。」
28Now the rest of the acts of Josiah, and all that he did, are they not written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Judah?
28ヨシヤのその他の事績と、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。
29¶ In his days Pharaoh-nechoh king of Egypt went up against the king of Assyria to the river Euphrates: and king Josiah went against him; and he slew him at Megiddo, when he had seen him.
29その時代、エジプトの王ファラオ・ネコが、アッシリアの王と戦うためユーフラテス川へ向かった。ヨシヤ王はこれを迎え撃ったが、ファラオ・ネコはメギドで彼を殺した。
30And his servants carried him in a chariot dead from Megiddo, and brought him to Jerusalem, and buried him in his own sepulchre. And the people of the land took Jehoahaz the son of Josiah, and anointed him, and made him king in his father’s stead.
30彼のしもべたちは、彼が死んだままメギドから戦車で彼を運び、エルサレムに連れて来て彼自身の墓に葬った。その地の民はヨシヤの息子エホアハズを取り、彼に油を注いで彼の父の代わりに王とした。
31¶ Jehoahaz was twenty and three years old when he began to reign; and he reigned three months in Jerusalem. And his mother’s name was Hamutal, the daughter of Jeremiah of Libnah.
31エホアハズが王となったときは二十三歳で、エルサレムで三か月間治めた。彼の母の名はハムタルといい、リブナのエレミヤの娘であった。
32And he did that which was evil in the sight of the LORD , according to all that his fathers had done.
32彼は彼の先祖が行ったすべてのことに従って、主の目に悪とされることを行った。
33And Pharaoh-nechoh put him in bands at Riblah in the land of Hamath, that he might not reign in Jerusalem; and put the land to a tribute of an hundred talents of silver, and a talent of gold.
33ファラオ・ネコはハマトの地リブラで彼を捕らえ、エルサレムで王として治められないようにした。そしてその地に、銀百タラント と金一タラントの貢ぎを課した。
34And Pharaoh-nechoh made Eliakim the son of Josiah king in the room of Josiah his father, and turned his name to Jehoiakim, and took Jehoahaz away: and he came to Egypt, and died there.
34ファラオ・ネコはヨシヤの息子エリアキムを、彼の父ヨシヤの代わりに王とし、彼の名をエホヤキムと改めさせた。しかし彼はエホアハズを連れ去り、彼はエジプトへ行き、そこで死んだ。
35And Jehoiakim gave the silver and the gold to Pharaoh; but he taxed the land to give the money according to the commandment of Pharaoh: he exacted the silver and the gold of the people of the land, of every one according to his taxation, to give it unto Pharaoh-nechoh.
35エホヤキムはファラオに銀と金を与えたが、彼はファラオの命令にしたがって銀を与えるためにその地に税を課した。彼はエジプトの王ファラオに与えるために、その地の民の各人から、その評価にしたがって銀と金を取り立てた。
36¶ Jehoiakim was twenty and five years old when he began to reign; and he reigned eleven years in Jerusalem. And his mother’s name was Zebudah, the daughter of Pedaiah of Rumah.
36エホヤキムが王となったときは二十五歳で、エルサレムで十一年間治めた。彼の母の名はゼビダといい、ルマのペダヤの娘であった。
37And he did that which was evil in the sight of the LORD , according to all that his fathers had done.
37彼は彼の先祖が行ったすべてのことに従って、主の目に悪とされることを行った。
