< 1 Chronicles 17 >
1 And it came to pass, when David had taken up his abode in his house, that David said unto Nathan the prophet, Lo! I, am dwelling in a house of cedars, but, the ark of the covenant of Yahweh, is under curtains.
ダビデその家に住にいたりてダビデ預言者ナタンに言けるは觀よ我は香柏の家に住む然れどもヱホバの契約の櫃は幕の下にありと
2 Then said Nathan unto David, All that is in thy heart, do, —for, God, is with thee.
ナタン、ダビデに言けるは神なんぢとともに在せば凡て汝の心にある所を爲せ
3 But so it was that, in that night, the word of God came unto Nathan, saying:
その夜神の言ナタンに臨みて曰く
4 Go and say unto David my servant, Thus, saith Yahweh, —Thou, shalt not build me a house, to dwell in;
往てわが僕ダビデに言へヱホバかく言ふ汝は我ために我の住べき家を建べからず
5 seeing that I have not dwelt in a house, since the day that I brought up Israel, until this day, —but have been from tent to tent, and without a habitation.
我はイスラエルを導びき上りし日より今日にいたるまで家に住しこと無して但幕屋より幕屋に移り天幕より天幕に遷れり
6 Wheresoever I have wandered with all Israel, spake I ever, a word, with one of the judges of Israel, whom I charged to shepherd my people, saying, —Wherefore have ye not built me a house of cedars?
我イスラエルの人々と共に歩みたる處々にて我わが民を牧養ふことを命じたるイスラエルの士師の一人にもなんぢ何故に香柏の家を我ために建ざるやと一言にても言し事ありや
7 Now, therefore, thus, shalt thou say unto my servant David, Thus, saith Yahweh of hosts, I myself, took thee from the pasture, from after the flock, —to become leader over my people Israel;
然ば汝わが僕ダビデに斯言べし萬軍のヱホバかく言ふ我なんぢを牧場より取り羊に隨がふ處より取て我民イスラエルの君長と爲し
8 and was with thee whithersoever thou didst go, and have cut off all thine enemies, from before thee, —and will make thee a name, like the name of the great ones, who are in the earth;
汝が凡て往る處にて汝と偕にあり汝の諸の敵を汝の前より斷されり我また世の中の大なる人の名のごとき名を汝に得させん
9 and will appoint a place for my people Israel, and will plant them, and they shall inhabit their place, and be unsettled no more, —neither shall the sons of perversity again wear them out, as at the first;
かつ我わが民イスラエルのために處を定めて彼らを植つけ彼らをして自己の處に住て重て動くこと無らしめん
10 even from the days when I put judges in charge over my people Israel, and have subdued all thine enemies, —that I might make thee great, yea, a house, will Yahweh build for thee.
又惡人昔のごとく即ち我民イスラエルの上に士師を立たる時より已來のごとく重ねて彼らを荒すこと無るべし我汝の諸の敵を圧服ん且今我汝に告ぐヱホバまた汝のために家を建ん
11 And it shall be that, when thy days are fulfilled, to sleep with thy fathers, then will I raise up thy seed after thee, who shall be of thy sons, —and I will establish his kingdom.
汝の日の滿汝ゆきて先祖等と偕になる時は我汝の生る汝の子を汝の後に立て且その國を堅うせん
12 He, shall build me a house, —and I will establish his throne unto times age-abiding.
彼わが爲に家を建ん我ながく彼の位を堅うせん
13 I, will become his father, and, he, shall become my son, —and, my lovingkindness, will I not cause to depart from him, —as I caused it to depart from him who was before thee;
我は彼の父となり彼はわが子となるべし我は汝の先にありし者より取たるごとくに彼よりは我恩惠を取さらじ
14 but I will cause him to remain over my house and over my kingdom, unto times age-abiding, —and, his throne, shall be established, unto times age-abiding.
却て我かれを永く我家に我國に居置ん彼の位は何時までも堅く立べし
15 According to all these words, and according to all this vision, so, spake Nathan unto David.
ナタン凡て是等の言のごとく凡てこの異象のごとくダビデに語りければ
16 Then entered King David, and tarried before Yahweh, —and said, Who am, I, O Yahweh God, and what is my house, that thou hast brought me hitherto;
ダビデ王入てヱホバの前に坐して言けるはヱホバ神よ我は誰わが家は何なれば汝此まで我を導きたまひしや
17 and hast made this seem little in thine eyes, O God, in that thou hast spoken concerning the house of thy servant, for a great while to come? Thus wilt thou provide for me, according to the rank of manhood, and hast exalted me, O Yahweh God!
神よ是はなほ汝の目には小き事たりヱホバ神よ汝はまた僕の家の遥後の事を語り高き者のごとくに我を見俲たまへり
18 What, yet further, can David say unto thee, [thus] to honour thy servant, —seeing that, thou thyself, knowest, thine own servant?
僕の名譽についてはダビデこの上何をか汝に望むべけん汝は僕を知たまふなり
19 O Yahweh, for the sake of thy servant, and according to thine own heart, hast thou done all this great thing, —making known all the great things.
ヱホバよ汝は僕のため又なんぢの心に循ひて此もろもろの大なる事を爲し此すべての大なる事を示たまへり
20 O Yahweh, there is none like unto thee, yea there is no God besides thee, according to all that we have heard with our ears.
ヱホバよ我らが凡て耳に聞る所に依ば汝のごとき者は無くまた汝の外に神は無し
21 Who then is like thy people Israel, a nation alone in the earth, —whom God went to redeem, to be his own people, to make for thyself a name for great and fearful things, to drive out, nations, from before thy people, whom thou didst redeem out of Egypt;
地の何の國か汝の民イスラエルに如ん是は在昔神の往て贖ひて己の民となして大なる畏るべき事を行なひて名を得たまひし者なり汝はそのエジプトより贖ひいだせし汝の民の前より國々の人を逐はらひたまへり
22 and didst appoint thy people Israel for thyself as a people, unto times age-abiding, —thou thyself, also, O Yahweh, becoming their God?
而して汝は汝の民イスラエルを永く汝の民となしたまふヱホバよ汝は彼らの神となりたまへり
23 Now, therefore, O Yahweh, the word which thou hast spoken concerning thy servant, and concerning his house, be it steadfast unto times age-abiding, —and do as thou hast spoken:
然ばヱホバよ汝が僕とその家につきて宣まひし言を永く堅うして汝の言し如く爲たまへ
24 yea let it be steadfast, and so let thy Name be magnified unto times age-abiding, saying, Yahweh of hosts, the God of Israel, is a God to Israel! seeing that, the house of David thy servant, is established before thee.
願くは汝の名の堅く立ち永久に崇められて萬軍のヱホバ、イスラエルの神はイスラエルに神たりと曰れんことを願くは僕ダビデの家の汝の前に堅く立んことを
25 For, thou, O my God, hast unveiled the ear of thy servant, that thou wilt build for him a house, —for this cause, hath thy servant found [it in his heart] to pray before thee.
我神よ汝は僕の耳に示して之が爲に家を建んと宣へり是によりて僕なんぢの前に祈る道を得たり
26 Now, therefore, O Yahweh, thou, art God, —therefore hast thou spoken concerning thy servant this goodness.
ヱホバよ汝は即ち神にましまし此恩典を僕に傳たまへり
27 Now, therefore, let it please thee to bless the house of thy servant, that it may be unto times age-abiding before thee, —for, thou O Yahweh, hast blessed, and it is to be blessed unto times age-abiding.
願くは今僕の家を祝福て汝の前に永く在しめたまへ其はヱホバよ汝の祝福たまへる者は永く祝福を蒙ればなり
