Exodus 36
1 “Bezalel and Oholiab, and all the other men to whom Yahweh has given ability and enabled them to understand how to do all the work to make the Sacred Tent, must make everything just as Yahweh has commanded.”
ベザレルとアホリアブおよびすべて心に知恵ある者、すなわち主が知恵と悟りとを授けて、聖所の組立ての諸種の工事を、いかになすかを知らせられた者は、すべて主が命じられたようにしなければならない」。
2 So Moses/I summoned Bezalel and Oholiab and all the other skilled men to whom Yahweh had given special ability and who wanted to do some of the work.
そこで、モーセはベザレルとアホリアブおよびすべて心に知恵ある者、すなわち、その心に主が知恵を授けられた者、またきて、その工事をなそうと心に望むすべての者を召し寄せた。
3 Moses/I gave them all the things that the people had brought as offerings to Yahweh for making the Sacred Tent. But the people continued bringing more things every morning.
彼らは聖所の組立ての工事をするために、イスラエルの人々が携えてきたもろもろのささげ物を、モーセから受け取ったが、民はなおも朝ごとに、自発のささげ物を彼のもとに携えてきた。
4 As a result, the skilled men who were doing various things to make the Sacred Tent came to Moses/me
そこで聖所のもろもろの工事をする賢い人々はみな、おのおのしていた工事をやめて、
5 and said, “The people are bringing more than we need to do the work that Yahweh has commanded us!”
モーセに言った「民があまりに多く携えて来るので、主がせよと命じられた組立ての工事には余ります」。
6 So Moses/I gave the skilled men this message that was proclaimed throughout the camp: “No one should bring anything more as an offering to make the Sacred Tent!” When the people [heard that], they did not bring anything more.
モーセは命令を発し、宿営中にふれさせて言った、「男も女も、もはや聖所のために、ささげ物をするに及ばない」。それで民は携えて来ることをやめた。
7 What they had already brought was enough to do all the work. [In fact], it was more than was needed!
材料はすべての工事をするのにじゅうぶんで、かつ余るからである。
8 All the most skilled men among the workmen made the Sacred Tent. They made it from ten strips of fine linen, and carefully embroidered it using blue, purple, and red yarn/thread to make figures that resembled the winged creatures.
すべて工作をする者のうちの心に知恵ある者は、十枚の幕で幕屋を造った。すなわち亜麻の撚糸、青糸、紫糸、緋糸で造り、巧みなわざをもって、それにケルビムを織り出した。
9 Each strip was (14 yards/twelve meters) long and (2 yards/1.8 meters) wide.
幕の長さは、おのおの二十八キュビト、幕の幅は、おのおの四キュビトで、幕はみな同じ寸法である。
10 They sewed five strips together to make one set, and they sewed the other five strips together to make the other set.
その幕五枚を互に連ね合わせ、また他の五枚の幕をも互に連ね合わせ、
11 For each set, they made loops of blue [cloth] and fastened them on the outer edge of the strip, at the end of each set.
その一連の端にある幕の縁に青色の乳をつけ、他の一連の端にある幕の縁にも、そのようにした。
12 They put 50 loops on the edge of the first set, and 50 loops on the edge of the second set.
その一枚の幕に乳五十をつけ、他の一連の幕の端にも、乳五十をつけた。その乳を互に相向かわせた。
13 They made 50 gold clasps/fasteners, to fasten both of the sets together. In that way, the inside of the Sacred Tent was [as though it was] one piece.
そして金の輪五十を作り、その輪で、幕を互に連ね合わせたので、一つの幕屋になった。
14 They made a cover for the Sacred Tent from eleven pieces of cloth made from goats’ hair.
また、やぎの毛糸で幕を作り、幕屋をおおう天幕にした。すなわち幕十一枚を作った。
15 Each piece of cloth was (15 yards/13.5 meters) long and (2 yards/1.8 meters) wide.
おのおのの幕の長さは三十キュビト、おのおのの幕の幅は四キュビトで、その十一枚の幕は同じ寸法である。
16 They sewed five of these pieces of cloth together to make one set, and they sewed the other six pieces of cloth together to make another set.
そして、その幕五枚を一つに連ね合わせ、また、その幕六枚を一つに連ね合わせ、
17 They made 100 loops [of blue cloth]. They fastened 50 of them to the outer edge of the one set and they fastened 50 to the outer edge of the other set.
その一連の端にある幕の縁に、乳五十をつけ、他の一連の幕の縁にも、乳五十をつけた。
18 They made 50 bronze clasps/fasteners and joined the two sets together with them. In that way it formed one cover.
そして、青銅の輪五十を作り、その天幕を連ね合わせて一つにした。
19 They made two more covers for the Sacred Tent. They made one from rams’ skins that had been (tanned/dyed red), and they made the top cover from goatskin leather.
また、あかね染めの雄羊の皮で、天幕のおおいと、じゅごんの皮で、その上にかけるおおいとを作った。
20 They made frames from acacia wood and set them up [to support the covers for the Sacred Tent].
また幕屋のためにアカシヤ材をもって、立枠を造った。
21 Each frame was (15 feet/4.5 meters) long and (27 in./66 cm.) wide.
枠の長さは十キュビト、枠の幅は、おのおの一キュビト半とし、
22 They made two projections at the bottom of each frame. These were for fastening the frames to the bases underneath them. Each frame had these projections.
枠ごとに二つの柄を造って、かれとこれとをくい合わせ、幕屋のすべての枠にこのようにした。
23 The skilled workmen made twenty frames for the south side of the Sacred Tent.
幕屋のために枠を造った。すなわち南側のために枠二十を造った。
24 They made 40 silver bases to go underneath them. Two bases went under each frame. The projections on each frame fit into these bases.
その二十の枠の下に銀の座四十を造って、この枠の下に、その二つの柄のために二つの座を置き、かの枠の下にも、その二つの柄のために二つの座を置いた。
25 [Similarly], they made 20 frames for the north side of the Sacred Tent.
また幕屋の他の側、すなわち北側のためにも枠二十を造った。
26 They made 40 silver bases for them also, with two bases for under each frame.
その銀の座四十を造って、この枠の下にも二つの座を置き、かの枠の下にも二つの座を置いた。
27 For the rear of the Sacred Tent, on the west side, they made six frames.
また幕屋のうしろ、西側のために枠六つを造り、
28 They also made two extra frames, one for each corner of the rear of the Sacred Tent, [to provide extra support].
幕屋のうしろの二つのすみのために枠二つを造った。
29 The two corner frames were joined from the bottom to the top (OR, joined at both the bottom and the top). At the top of each of the two corner frames they fastened a gold ring for holding the crossbar.
これらは、下で重なり合い、同じくその頂でも第一の環まで重なり合うようにし、その二つとも二つのすみのために、そのように造った。
30 In that way, [for the rear of the Sacred Tent] there were eight frames, and there were 16 bases, two bases under each frame.
こうして、その枠は八つ、その銀の座は十六、おのおのの枠の下に、二つずつ座があった。
31 The workmen made 15 crossbars from acacia wood.
またアカシヤ材の横木を造った。すなわち幕屋のこの側の枠のために五つ、
32 Five of them were for the frames on the north side of the Sacred Tent, five for the south side, and five for the frames at the rear of the Sacred Tent, the west side.
また幕屋のかの側の枠のために横木五つ、幕屋のうしろの西側の枠のために横木五つを造った。
33 The crossbars on the north, south, and west sides of the Sacred Tent were fastened to the middle of the frames. The two long crossbars extended from one end of the Sacred Tent to the other, and the crossbar on the west side extended from one side of the Sacred Tent to the other side.
枠のまん中にある中央の横木は、端から端まで通るようにした。
34 The workmen covered the frames with gold and fastened gold rings to the poles. The crossbars [were put] into the rings. The crossbars were [also] covered with gold.
そして、その枠を金でおおい、また横木を通すその環を金で造り、またその横木を金でおおった。
35 They made a curtain from fine white linen. Skilled craftsmen embroidered it with blue, purple, and red yarn/thread, making designs [that resembled] the winged creatures.
また青糸、紫糸、緋糸、亜麻の撚糸で、垂幕を作り、巧みなわざをもって、それにケルビムを織り出した。
36 They suspended/hung the curtain from four posts that were made from acacia [wood] and covered with gold. They set [each] post in a silver base.
また、これがためにアカシヤ材の柱四本を作り、金でこれをおおい、その鉤を金にし、その柱のために銀の座四つを鋳た。
37 They made a curtain to [cover] the entrance of the Sacred Tent. They made it from fine linen, and a skilled weaver embroidered it with blue, purple, and red yarn/thread.
また幕屋の入口のために青糸、紫糸、緋糸、亜麻の撚糸で、色とりどりに織ったとばりを作った。
38 [To support this curtain], they also made five posts from acacia wood and fastened gold clasps/fasteners to them. They completely covered the posts with gold. They also made a bronze base for each of those posts.
その柱五本と、その鉤とを造り、その柱の頭と桁とを金でおおった。ただし、その五つの座は青銅であった。
