< 2 Chronicles 1 >

1 Solomon the son of David was firmly established in his kingdom, and the LORD his God was with him, and made him exceedingly great.
ダビデの子ソロモン堅くその國にたてりその神ヱホバこれとともに在して之を甚だ大ならしめたまひき
2 Solomon spoke to all Israel, to the captains of thousands and of hundreds, to the judges, and to every prince in all Israel, the heads of the fathers’ households.
茲にソロモン、イスラエルの一切の人々すなはち千人の長百人の長裁判人ならびにイスラエルの全地の諸の牧伯等宗家の長などに告る所あり
3 Then Solomon, and all the assembly with him, went to the high place that was at Gibeon; for God’s Tent of Meeting was there, which the LORD’s servant Moses had made in the wilderness.
而してソロモンおよび全會衆ともにギベオンなる崇邱に往りヱホバの僕モーセが荒野にて作りたる神の集會の幕屋かしこにあればなり
4 But David had brought God’s ark up from Kiriath Jearim to the place that David had prepared for it; for he had pitched a tent for it at Jerusalem.
されど神の契約の櫃はダビデすでにキリアテヤリムよりこれが爲に備へたる處に携へ上れりダビデ曩にヱルサレムにて之が爲に幕屋を張まうけたりき
5 Moreover the bronze altar that Bezalel the son of Uri, the son of Hur, had made was there before the LORD’s tabernacle; and Solomon and the assembly were seeking counsel there.
またホルの子ウリの子なるベザレルが作りたる銅の壇彼處においてヱホバの幕屋の前にありソロモンおよび會衆これに就きて求む
6 Solomon went up there to the bronze altar before the LORD, which was at the Tent of Meeting, and offered one thousand burnt offerings on it.
即ちソロモン彼處に上りゆき集會の幕屋の中にあるヱホバの前なる銅の壇に就き燔祭一千を其上に献げたり
7 That night, God appeared to Solomon and said to him, “Ask for what you want me to give you.”
その夜神ソロモンに顯れてこれに言たまひけるは我なんぢに何を與ふべきか求めよ
8 Solomon said to God, “You have shown great loving kindness to David my father, and have made me king in his place.
ソロモン神に申しけるは汝は我父ダビデに大なる恩惠をほどこし又我をして彼に代りて王とならしめたまへり
9 Now, LORD God, let your promise to David my father be established; for you have made me king over a people like the dust of the earth in multitude.
今ヱホバ神よ願くは我父ダビデに宣ひし事を堅うしたまへ其は汝地の塵のごとき衆多の民の上に我を王となしたまへばなり
10 Now give me wisdom and knowledge, that I may go out and come in before this people; for who can judge this great people of yours?”
我が此民の前に出入することを得んために今我に智慧と智識とを與へたまへ斯のごとき大なる汝の民を誰か鞫きえんや
11 God said to Solomon, “Because this was in your heart, and you have not asked riches, wealth, honor, or the life of those who hate you, nor yet have you asked for long life; but have asked for wisdom and knowledge for yourself, that you may judge my people, over whom I have made you king,
神ソロモンに言たまひけるは此事なんぢの心にあり汝は富有をも財寶をも尊貴をも汝を惡む者の生命をも求めずまた壽長からんことをも求めず惟智慧と智識とを己のためにもとめて我が汝を王となしたる我民を鞫かんとすれば
12 therefore wisdom and knowledge is granted to you. I will give you riches, wealth, and honor, such as none of the kings have had who have been before you, and none after you will have.”
智慧と智識は已に汝に授かれり我また汝の前の王等の未だ得たること有ざる程の富有と財寳と尊貴とを汝に與へん汝の後の者もまた是のごときを得ざるべし
13 So Solomon came from the high place that was at Gibeon, from before the Tent of Meeting, to Jerusalem; and he reigned over Israel.
斯てソロモンはギベオンの崇邱を去り集會の幕屋の前を去りてヱルサレムに歸りイスラエルを治めたり
14 Solomon gathered chariots and horsemen. He had one thousand four hundred chariots and twelve thousand horsemen that he placed in the chariot cities, and with the king at Jerusalem.
ソロモン戰車と騎兵とを集めしに戰車一千四百輛騎兵一萬二千人ありきソロモンこれを戰車の邑々に置き又ヱルサレムにて王の所に置り
15 The king made silver and gold to be as common as stones in Jerusalem, and he made cedars to be as common as the sycamore trees that are in the lowland.
王銀と金とを石のごとくヱルサレムに多からしめまた香柏を平野の桑樹のごとく多からしめたり
16 The horses which Solomon had were brought out of Egypt and from Kue. The king’s merchants purchased them from Kue.
ソロモンの有る馬は皆エジプトよりひききたれり王の商買一群一群となして之を取いだし群ごとに價金をはらへり
17 They imported from Egypt then exported a chariot for six hundred pieces of silver and a horse for one hundred fifty. They also exported them to the Hittite kings and the Syrian kings.
エジプトより取いだして携へ上る戰車一輛は銀六百馬一匹は百五十なりき是のごとくヘテ人の諸の王等およびスリアの王等のためにもその手をもて取いだせり
