< 歴代誌Ⅰ 14 >
1 茲にツロの王ヒラム使者をダビデに遣はし之がために家を建させんとて香柏および木匠と石工をおくれり
Then Hiram, king of Tyre, sent messengers to David along with cedar timber, stonemasons, and carpenters to build him a palace.
2 ダビデはヱホバの固く己をたててイスラエルの王となしたまへるを暁れり其はその民イスラエルの故によりてその國振ひ興りたればなり
In this way David realized that the Lord had placed him on the throne as king of Israel and had blessed by supporting his kingdom for the sake of the Lord's people Israel.
3 ダビデ、ヱルサレムにおいてまた妻妾を納たり而してダビデまた男子女子を得たり
David married more wives in Jerusalem, and had more sons and daughters.
4 そのヱルサレムにて得たる子等の名は左のごとしシヤンマ、シヨバブ、ナタン、ソロモン
This is a list of the names of the children he had in Jerusalem: Shammua, Shobab, Nathan, Solomon,
Elishama, Beeliada, and Eliphelet.
8 茲にダビデの膏そそがれてイスラエル全國の王となれる事ペリシテ人に聞えければペリシテ人みなダビデを獲んとて上れりダビデは聞て之に當らんとて出たりしが
When the Philistines heard that David had been anointed king over all of Israel, they gathered their whole army to go after him. But David heard they were coming and went out to confront them.
9 ペリシテ人すでに來りてレバイムの谷を侵したりき
The Philistines arrived and raided the valley of Rephaim.
10 時にダビデ神に問て言けるは我ペリシテ人にむかひて攻上るべきや汝彼らを吾手に付し給ふやヱホバ、ダビデに言たまひけるは攻上れ我かれらを汝の手に付さんと
David consulted God, asking “Shall I go and attack the Philistines? Will you make me victorious over them?” “Go ahead,” the Lord told him, “I will make you victorious over them.”
11 是において皆バアルベラジムに上りゆきけるがダビデつひに彼處にて彼らを打敗り而してダビデ言り神水の破壞り出るごとくに我手をもてわが敵を敗りたまへりと是をもてその處の名をバアルペラジム(破壞の處)と呼ぶなり
So David attacked and defeated them there at Baal-perazim. “God used me to defeat my enemies like a torrent of water that bursts out,” he declared. That's why the place was named Baal-perazim.
12 彼ら其處にその神々を遺ゆきたればダビデ命じて火をもてこれを焚せたり
The Philistines had left their gods behind, so David gave orders that they should be burned.
However, the Philistines returned and made another raid on the valley.
14 ダビデまた神に問に神これに言たまひけるは彼らを追て上るべからず彼らを離れて回りベカの樹の方よりこれを襲へ
David consulted God again. “Don't make a frontal attack,” God told him. “Instead go around behind them and attack them in front of the balsam trees.
15 汝ベカの樹の上に進行の音あるを聞ば即ち進んで戰ふべし神汝のまへに進みいでペリシテ人の軍勢を撃たまふべければなりと
As soon as you hear the sound of marching in the tops of the balsam trees, go and attack for the Lord has gone before you to strike down the Philistine army.”
16 ダビデすなはち神の己に命じたまひし如くしてペリシテ人の軍勢を撃やぶりつつギベオンよりガゼルにまでいたれり
So David did what God told him, striking down the Philistine army all the way from Gibeon to Gezer.
17 是においてダビデの名諸の國々に聞えわたりヱホバ諸の國人に彼を懼れしめたまへり
As a result David's reputation was spread everywhere, and the Lord made all the nations afraid of David.
