< 1 Kings 7 >
1 But his own house was Solomon building thirteen years, and then he finished all his house.
またソロモンは自分の家を建てたが、十三年かかってその家を全部建て終った。
2 He built also the house of the forest of Lebanon: a hundred cubits was its length, and fifty cubits was its breadth, and thirty cubits was its height, upon four rows of cedar pillars, with cedar beams upon the pillars.
彼はレバノンの森の家を建てた。長さ百キュビト、幅五十キュビト、高さ三十キュビトで、三列の香柏の柱があり、その柱の上に香柏の梁があった。
3 And it was covered with cedar above over the beams, that lay on the forty-five pillars, fifteen in a row.
四十五本の柱の上にある室は香柏の板でおおった。柱は各列十五本あった。
4 And there were window-spaces in three rows, and windows were opposite each other in three ranks.
また窓わくが三列あって、窓と窓と三段に向かい合っていた。
5 And all the entrances and door-posts formed a square in shape: and windows were opposite windows in three ranks.
戸口と窓はみな四角の枠をもち、窓と窓と三段に向かい合った。
6 And he made a porch of pillars: fifty cubits was its length, and thirty cubits its breadth; and the porch was before them; and the other pillars with an entablature before them.
また柱の広間を造った。長さ五十キュビト、幅三十キュビトであった。柱の前に一つの広間があり、その玄関に柱とひさしがあった。
7 Then he made a porch for the throne where he might judge, the porch of judgment: and it was covered with cedar from one side of the floor to the other.
またソロモンはみずから審判をするために玉座の広間、すなわち審判の広間を造った。床からたるきまで香柏をもっておおった。
8 And his house where he dwelt in another court within the porch, was of the like work: and Solomon made also a house for Pharaoh's daughter, whom he had taken for wife, like unto this porch.
ソロモンが住んだ宮殿はその広間のうしろの他の庭にあって、その造作は同じであった。ソロモンはまた彼がめとったパロの娘のために家を建てたが、その広間と同じであった。
9 All these were of heavy stones, hewn after a fixed measure, sawed with the saw inside and outside, even from the foundation unto the coping, and from the outside unto the great court.
これらはみな内外とも、土台から軒まで、また主の宮の庭から大庭まで、寸法に合わせて切った石、すなわち、のこぎりでひいた高価な石で造られた。
10 And the foundation was of heavy stones, large stones, stones of ten cubits, and stones of eight cubits.
また土台は高価な石、大きな石、すなわち八キュビトの石、十キュビトの石であった。
11 And above were heavy stones, hewn after a fixed measure, and cedars.
その上には寸法に合わせて切った高価な石と香柏とがあった。
12 And the great court round about was of three rows of hewn stones, and one row of cedar beams, both for the inner court of the house of the Lord, and for the porch of the house.
また大庭の周囲には三かさねの切り石と、一かさねの香柏の角材があった。主の宮の内庭と宮殿の広間の庭の場合と同じである。
13 And king Solomon sent and fetched Hiram out of Tyre.
ソロモン王は人をつかわしてツロからヒラムを呼んできた。
14 He was the son of a widow of the tribe of Naphtali, and his father was a man of Tyre, a worker in copper: and he was filled with wisdom, and understanding, and knowledge, to make every work in copper; and he came to king Solomon, and did all his work.
彼はナフタリの部族の寡婦の子であって、その父はツロの人で、青銅の細工人であった。ヒラムは青銅のいろいろな細工をする知恵と悟りと知識に満ちた者であったが、ソロモン王のところにきて、そのすべての細工をした。
15 And he cast two pillars of copper, eighteen cubits was the height of the one pillar; and a line of twelve cubits did encompass the second pillar.
彼は青銅の柱二本を鋳た。一本の柱の高さは十八キュビト、そのまわりは綱をもって測ると十二キュビトあり、指四本の厚さで空洞であった。他の柱も同じである。
16 And he made two capitals, to set upon the tops of the pillars, of molten copper; five cubits was the height of the one capital, and five cubits was the height of the other capital;
また青銅を溶かして柱頭二つを造り、柱の頂にすえた。その一つの柱頭の高さは五キュビト、他の柱頭の高さも五キュビトであった。
17 And nets of checker-work, and wreaths of chain-work, for the capitals which were upon the top of the pillars; seven for the one capital, and seven for the other capital.
柱の頂にある柱頭のために鎖に編んだ飾りひもで市松模様の網細工二つを造った。すなわちこの柱頭のために一つ、かの柱頭のために一つを造った。
18 And he made the pillars, so that two rows of pomegranates were round about upon the one net-work, to cover the capitals that were upon the top: and the same he made for the other capital.
またざくろを造った。すなわち二並びのざくろを一つの網細工の上のまわりに造って、柱の頂にある柱頭を巻いた。他の柱頭にも同じようにした。
19 And the capitals, that were upon the top of the pillars, furnished with lily-work, [as] those in the porch, were four cubits.
この廊の柱の頂にある柱頭の上に四キュビトのゆりの花の細工があった。
20 And the capitals upon the two pillars rose also above, close by the rounding which was on the side of the network: and the pomegranates were two hundred, in rows round about, upon either capital.
二つの柱の上端の丸い突出部の上にある網細工の柱頭の周囲には、おのおの二百のざくろが二並びになっていた。
21 And he set up the pillars for the porch of the temple; and he set up the right pillar, and called its name Yachin; and he set up the left pillar, and called its name Boaz.
この柱を神殿の廊に立てた。すなわち南に柱を立てて、その名をヤキンと名づけ、北に柱を立てて、その名をボアズと名づけた。
22 And upon the top of the pillars there was lily-work: and so was finished the work of the pillars.
その柱の頂にはゆりの花の細工があった。こうしてその柱の造作ができあがった。
23 And he made the molten sea, ten cubits from the one brim to the other, rounded all about, and it was five cubits in height: and a line of thirty cubits did encompass it round about.
また海を鋳て造った。縁から縁まで十キュビトであって、周囲は円形をなし、高さ五キュビトで、その周囲は綱をもって測ると三十キュビトであった。
24 And colocynth-shaped knobs were under its brim round about encompassing it, ten in a cubit, encircling the sea round about: the colocynths were in two rows, and were cast [with it] when it was cast.
その縁の下には三十キュビトの周囲をめぐるひさごがあって、海の周囲を囲んでいた。そのひさごは二並びで、海を鋳る時に鋳たものである。
25 It was standing upon twelve oxen, three looking toward the north, and three looking toward the west, and three looking toward the south, and three looking toward the east; and the sea was resting above upon them, and all their hinder parts were inward.
その海は十二の牛の上に置かれ、その三つは北に向かい、三つは西に向かい、三つは南に向かい、三つは東に向かっていた。海はその上に置かれ、牛のうしろは皆内に向かっていた。
26 And its thickness was a hand's breadth, and its brim was wrought like the brim of a cup, with lily-buds: it could contain two thousand baths.
海の厚さは手の幅で、その縁は杯の縁のように、ゆりの花に似せて造られた。海には水が二千バテはいった。
27 And he made ten bases of copper: four cubits was the length of each one base, and four cubits its breadth, and three cubits its height.
また青銅の台を十個造った。台は長さ四キュビト、幅四キュビト、高さ三キュビトであった。
28 And this was the workmanship of the bases: They had borders, and the borders were between the corner ledges;
その台の構造は次のとおりである。台には鏡板があり、鏡板は枠の中にあった。
29 And on the borders that were between the ledges were lions, oxen, and cherubim; and upon the corner ledges it was thus also above; and likewise beneath the lions and oxen were pendant wreaths of plated work.
枠の中にある鏡板には、ししと牛とケルビムとがあり、また、ししと牛の上と下にある枠の斜面には花飾りが細工してあった。
30 And every base had four copper wheels, and axles of copper; and its four corners had undersetters; under the laver were the undersetters cast on; at the side of each were pendants.
また台にはおのおの四つの青銅の車輪と、青銅の車軸があり、その四すみには洗盤のささえがあった。そのささえは、おのおの花飾りのかたわらに鋳て造りつけてあった。
31 And its mouth was within the capital and above a cubit in height; but the mouth of this was rounded after the work of the base, a cubit and a half cubit; and also upon its mouth were carvings; and their borders were square, not rounded.
その口は一キュビト上に突き出て、台の頂の内にあり、その口は丸く、台座のように造られ、深さ一キュビト半であった。またその口には彫り物があった。その鏡板は四角で、丸くなかった。
32 And the four wheels were under the borders; and the axletrees of the wheels were joined to the base: and the height of each one wheel was a cubit and a half cubit.
四つの車輪は鏡板の下にあり、車軸は台に取り付けてあり、車輪の高さはおのおの一キュビト半であった。
33 And the workmanship of the wheels was like the workmanship of a chariot-wheel: their axletrees, and their naves, and their felloes, and their spokes, were all cast.
車輪の構造は戦車の車輪の構造と同じで、その車軸と縁と輻と轂とはみな鋳物であった。
34 And there were four undersetters to the four corners of each one base; the undersetters were of one piece with the base itself.
おのおのの台の四すみに四つのささえがあり、そのささえは台の一部をなしていた。
35 And on the top of the base was a rounded compass of half a cubit high: and on the top of the base were its side-ledges; and its borders were of one piece with itself.
台の上には高さ半キュビトの丸い帯輪があった。そして台の上にあるその支柱と鏡板とはその一部をなしていた。
36 And he engraved on the plates of its side-ledges and on its borders, cherubim, lions, and palm-trees: and in the open space of every one were pendant wreaths round about.
その支柱の表面と鏡板にはそれぞれの場所に、ケルビムと、ししと、しゅろを刻み、またその周囲に花飾りを施した。
37 After this manner did he make the ten bases: one casting, one measure, one form, was there for all of them.
このようにして十個の台を造った。それはみな同じ鋳方、同じ寸法、同じ形であった。
38 Then made he ten lavers of copper; forty baths could each one laver contain; every laver was four cubits: each one laver was upon each one base of the ten bases.
また青銅の洗盤を十個造った。洗盤はおのおの四十バテの水がはいり、洗盤はおのおの四キュビトであった。十個の台の上にはおのおの一つずつの洗盤があった。
39 And he put the bases, five on the right side of the house, and five on the left side of the house: and the sea he set on the right side of the house eastward opposite the south.
その台の五個を宮の南の方に、五個を宮の北の方に置き、宮の東南の方に海をすえた。
40 And Hiram made the lavers, and the shovels, and the basins; so Hiram made an end of doing all the work that he made for king Solomon for the house of the Lord.
ヒラムはまたつぼと十能と鉢を造った。こうしてヒラムはソロモン王のために主の宮のすべての細工をなし終えた。
41 The two pillars, and the two bowl-shaped capitals that were on the top of the two pillars; and the two net-works, to cover the two bowl-shaped capitals which were upon the top of the pillars;
すなわち二本の柱と、その柱の頂にある柱頭の二つの玉と、柱の頂にある柱頭の二つの玉をおおう二つの網細工と、
42 And the four hundred pomegranates for the two net-works, two rows of pomegranates for each one net-work, to cover the two bowl-shaped, capitals that were upon the front of the pillars;
その二つの網細工のためのざくろ四百。このざくろは一つの網細工に、二並びにつけて、柱の頂にある柱頭の二つの玉を巻いた。
43 And the ten bases, and the ten lavers upon the bases;
また十個の台と、その台の上の十個の洗盤と、
44 And the one sea, and the twelve oxen under the sea;
一つの海と、その海の下の十二の牛とであった。
45 And the pots, and the shovels, and the basins; and all these vessels, which Hiram had made for king Solomon for the house of the Lord, were of polished copper.
さてつぼと十能と鉢、すなわちヒラムがソロモン王のために造った主の宮のこれらの器はみな光のある青銅であった。
46 In the plain of Jordan did the king cast them, in the clay-ground between Succoth and Zarethan.
王はヨルダンの低地で、スコテとザレタンの間の粘土の地でこれらを鋳た。
47 And Solomon set down all the vessels [unweighed], because they were exceedingly many: the weight of the copper was not inquired into.
ソロモンはその器が非常に多かったので、皆それをはからずにおいた。その青銅の重さは、はかり得なかった。
48 And Solomon made all the vessels that pertained unto the house of the Lord: The altar of gold, and the table whereupon the show-bread was, of gold,
またソロモンは主の宮にあるもろもろの器を造った。すなわち金の祭壇と、供えのパンを載せる金の机、
49 And the candlesticks, five on the right side, and five on the left, before the debir, of pure gold, with the flowers, and the lamps, and the tongs of gold,
および純金の燭台。この燭台は本殿の前に、五つは南に、五つは北にあった。また金の花と、ともしび皿と、心かきと、
50 And the bowls, and the knives, and the basins, and the spoons, and the censers of pure gold; and the hinges, for the doors of the inner house, for the holy of holies, for the doors of the house, and for the temple, [were] of gold.
純金の皿と、心切りばさみと、鉢と、香の杯と、心取り皿と、至聖所である宮の奥のとびらのためおよび、宮の拝殿のとびらのために、金のひじつぼを造った。
51 And so was ended all the work that king Solomon made for the house of the Lord: and Solomon brought in the things sanctified by David his father, the silver, and the gold, and the vessels, [and] he placed [these] in the treasuries of the house of the Lord.
こうしてソロモン王が主の宮のために造るすべての細工は終った。そしてソロモンは父ダビデがささげた物、すなわち金銀および器物を携え入り、主の宮の宝蔵の中にたくわえた。
