2 Chronicles 7

1 Now when Solomon had made an end of praying, the fire came down from heaven, and consumed the burnt offering and the sacrifices; and the glory of the LORD filled the house.

ソロモン祈ることを終し時天より火くだりて燔祭と犠牲とを焚きヱホバの榮光その家に充り

2 The priests could not enter into the house of the LORD, because the glory of the LORD filled the LORD's house.

ヱホバの榮光ヱホバの家に充しに因て祭司はヱホバの家に入ことを得ざりき

3 All the children of Israel looked on, when the fire came down, and the glory of the LORD was on the house; and they bowed themselves with their faces to the ground on the pavement, and worshiped, and gave thanks to the LORD, saying, "For he is good; for his loving kindness endures for ever."

イスラエルの子孫は皆火の降れるを見またヱホバの榮光のその家にのぞめるを見て敷石の上にて地に俯伏て拝しヱホバを讃て云り善かなヱホバその恩惠は世々限なしと

4 Then the king and all the people offered sacrifice before the LORD.

斯て王および民みなヱホバの前に犠牲を献ぐ

5 King Solomon offered a sacrifice of twenty-two thousand head of cattle, and a hundred and twenty thousand sheep. So the king and all the people dedicated God's house.

ソロモン王の献げたる犠牲は牛二萬二千羊十二萬斯王と民みな神の家を開けり

6 The priests stood, according to their positions; the Levites also with instruments of music of the LORD, which David the king had made to give thanks to the LORD, when David praised by their ministry, saying "For his loving kindness endures for ever." The priests sounded trumpets before them; and all Israel stood.

祭司は立てその職をなしレビ人はヱホバの樂器を執て立つ其樂器はダビデ王彼らの手によりて讃美をなすに當り自ら作りてヱホバの恩惠は世々限なしと頌へしめし者なり祭司は彼らの前にありて喇叭を吹きイスラエルの人は皆立をる

7 Moreover Solomon made the middle of the court holy that was before the house of the LORD; for there he offered the burnt offerings, and the fat of the peace offerings, because the bronze altar which Solomon had made was not able to receive the burnt offering, and the meal offering, and the fat.

ソロモンまたヱホバの家の前なる庭の中を聖め其處にて燔祭と酬恩祭の脂とを献げたり是はソロモンの造れる銅の壇その燔祭と素祭と脂とを受るに足ざりしが故なり

8 So Solomon held the feast at that time seven days, and all Israel with him, a very great assembly, from Lebo Hamath to the Wadi of Egypt.

その時ソロモン七日の間節筵をなしけるがイスラエル全國の人々すなはちハマテの入口よりエジプトの河までの人々あつまりて彼とともにあり其會はなはだ大なりき

9 On the eighth day they held a solemn assembly: for they kept the dedication of the altar seven days, and the feast seven days.

かくて第八日に聖會を開けり彼らは七日のあひだ壇奉納の禮をおこなひまた七日のあひだ節筵を守りけるが

10 On the three and twentieth day of the seventh month he sent the people away to their tents, joyful and glad of heart for the goodness that the LORD had shown to David, and to Solomon, and to Israel his people.

七月の二十三日にいたりてソロモン民をその天幕に歸せり皆ヱホバがダビデ、ソロモンおよびその民イスラエルに施こしたまひし恩惠のために喜こび且心に樂しみて去り

11 Thus Solomon finished the house of the LORD, and the king's house: and he successfully completed all that came into Solomon's heart to make in the house of the LORD, and in his own house.

ソロモン、ヱホバの家と王の家とを造了へヱホバの家と己の家とにつきて爲んと心に思ひし事を盡く成就たり

12 The LORD appeared to Solomon by night, and said to him, "I have heard your prayer, and have chosen this place to myself for a house of sacrifice.

時にヱホバ夜ソロモンに顯れて之に言たまひけるは我すでに汝の祈祷を聽きまた此處をわがために選びて犠牲を献ぐる家となす

13 If I shut up the sky so that there is no rain, or if I command the locust to devour the land, or if I send a plague among my people;

我天を閉て雨なからしめ又は蟊賊に命じて地の物を食はしめ又は疫病を我民の中におくらんに

14 then if my people who are called by my name will humble themselves, and pray, and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land.

我名をもて稱らるる我民もし自ら卑くし祈りてわが面を求めその惡き道を離れなば我天より聽てその罪を赦しその地を醫さん

15 Now my eyes shall be open, and my ears attentive, to the prayer that is made in this place.

今より我この處の祈祷に目を啓き耳を傾むけん

16 For now have I chosen and made this house holy, that my name may be there forever; and my eyes and my heart shall be there perpetually.

今我すでに此家を選びかつ聖別む我名は永く此にあるべしまた我目もわが心も恒に此にあるべし

17 As for you, if you will walk before me as David your father walked, and do according to all that I have commanded you, and will keep my statutes and my ordinances;

汝もし汝の父ダビデの歩みしごとく我前に歩み我が汝に命じたるごとく凡て行ひてわが法度と律例を守らば

18 then I will establish the throne of your kingdom, according as I covenanted with David your father, saying, 'There shall not fail you a man to be ruler in Israel.'

我は汝の父ダビデに契約してイスラエルを治むる人汝に缺ること無るべしと言しごとく汝の國の祚を堅うすべし

19 But if you turn away, and forsake my statutes and my commandments which I have set before you, and shall go and serve other gods, and worship them;

然ど汝ら若ひるがへり我が汝らの前に置たる法度と誡命を棄て往て他の神々に事へかつ之を拝まば

20 then I will pluck them up by the roots out of my land which I have given them; and this house, which I have made holy for my name, I will cast out of my sight, and I will make it a proverb and a byword among all peoples.

我かれらを我が與へたる地より抜さるべし又我名のために我が聖別たる此家は我これを我前より投棄て萬國の中に諺語となり嘲笑とならしめん

21 And this house, which is exalted, will become a heap of ruins. Everyone who passes by it will be astonished, and will say, 'Why has the LORD done this to this land, and to this house?'

且又この家は高くあれども終にはその傍を過る者は皆これに驚きて言んヱホバ何故に此地に此家に斯なしたるやと

22 And they shall answer, 'Because they abandoned the LORD, the God of their fathers, who brought them forth out of the land of Egypt, and took other gods, worshiped them, and served them. Therefore he has brought all these disasters on them.'"

人これに答へて言ん彼ら己の先祖をエジプトの地より導き出ししその神ヱホバを棄て他の神々に附從がひ之を拝み之に事へしによりてなりヱホバ之がためにこの諸の災禍を彼らに降せりと
