2 Chronicles 1
1 And Solomon, the son of David, made himself strong in his kingdom, and the Lord his God was with him, and made him very 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 And Solomon sent word to all Israel, to the captains of thousands and of hundreds and to the judges and to every chief in all Israel, heads of their families.
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 men of Israel with him, went to the high place at Gibeon, because the Tent of meeting of God, which Moses, the servant of the Lord, had made in the waste land, was there.
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 the ark of God had been moved by David from Kiriath-jearim to the place which he had made ready for it, for he had put up 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 And the altar of brass which Bezalel, the son of Uri, the son of Hur, had made, was there before the Tent of the Lord; and Solomon and all the people went to give worship 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 And Solomon went up there to the brass altar before the Lord at the Tent of meeting, offering on it a thousand burned offerings.
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 In that night God came to Solomon in a vision, and said to him, Say what I am 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 And Solomon said to God, Great was your mercy to David my father, and you 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, O Lord God, let your word to David my father come true; for you have made me king over a people like the dust of the earth in number.
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 Give me now wisdom and knowledge, so that I may go out and come in before this people: for who is able to be the judge of 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 And God said to Solomon, Because this was in your heart, and you did not make request for money, property, or honour, or for the destruction of your haters, or for long life; but you have made request for wisdom and knowledge for yourself, so that you may be the judge of 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 Wisdom and knowledge are given to you; and I will give you wealth and honour, such as no king has had before you or ever will have after you.
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 went back from the high place at Gibeon, from before the Tent of meeting, to Jerusalem; and he was king 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 And Solomon got together war-carriages and horsemen; he had one thousand, four hundred carriages and twelve thousand horsemen, which he kept, some in the carriage-towns and some 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 And the king made silver and gold as common as stones in Jerusalem, and cedar like the sycamore-trees of the lowland in number.
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 And Solomon's horses came out of Egypt; the king's traders got them from Kue at a price.
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 A war-carriage might be got from Egypt for six hundred shekels of silver, and a horse for a hundred and fifty: they got them at the same rate for all the kings of the Hittites and the kings of Aram.
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
