歴代誌Ⅰ 22

1 ダビデ言けるはヱホバ神の室は此なりイスラエルの燔祭の壇は此なりと

Then David said: This is the house of God, and this is the altar for the holocaust of Israel.

2 ダビデすなはち命じてイスラエルの地に居る異邦人を集めしめ又神の室を建るに用ふる石を琢ために石工を設けたり

And he commanded to gather together all the proselytes of the land of Israel, and out of them he appointed stonecutters to hew stones and polish them, to build the house of God.

3 ダビデまた門の扉の釘および鎹に用ふる鐵を夥しく備へたり又銅を數しれぬほどに夥しく備へたり

And David prepared in abundance iron for the nails of the gates, and for the closures and joinings: and of brass an immense weight.

4 また香柏を備ふること數しれず是はシドン人およびツロの者夥多しく香柏をダビデの所に運びきたりたればなり

And the cedar trees were without number, which the Sidonians, and Tyrians brought to David.

5 ダビデ言けるは我子ソロモンは少くして弱し又ヱホバのために建る室は極めて高大にして萬國に名を得榮を得る者たらざる可らず今我其がために準備をなさんとダビデその死る前に大に之が準備をなせり

And David said: Solomon my son is very young and tender, and the house which I would have to be built to the Lord, must be such as to be renowned in all countries: therefore I will prepare him necessaries. And therefore before his death he prepared all the charges.

6 而して彼その子ソロモンを召てイスラエルの神ヱホバのために家を建ることを之に命ぜり

And he called for Solomon his son: and commanded him to build a house to the Lord the God of Israel.

7 即ちダビデ、ソロモンに言けるは我子よ我は我神ヱホバの名のために家を建る志ありき

And David said to Solomon: My son, it was my desire to have built a house to the name of the Lord my God.

8 然るにヱホバの言われに臨みて言り汝は多くの血を流し大なる戰爭を爲したり汝我前にて多の血を地に流したれば我名の爲に家を建べからず

But the word of the Lord came to me, saying: Thou hast shed much blood, and fought many battles, so thou canst not build a house to my name, after shedding so much blood before me:

9 視よ男子汝に生れん是は平安の人なるべし我これに平安を賜ひてその四周の諸の敵に煩はさるること無らしめん故に彼の名はソロモン(平安)といふべし彼の世に我平安と靜謐をイスラエルに賜はん

The son, that shall be born to thee, shall be a most quiet man: for I will make him rest from all his enemies round about: and therefore he shall be called Peaceable: and I will give peace and quietness to Israel all his days.

10 彼わが名のために家を建ん彼はわが子となり我は彼の父とならん我かれの國の祚を固うして永くイスラエルの上に立しめん

He shall build a house to my name, and he shall be a son to me, and I will be a father to him: and I will establish the throne of his kingdom over Israel for ever.

11 然ば我子よ願くはヱホバ汝とともに在し汝を盛ならしめ汝の神ヱホバの室を建させて其なんぢにつきて言たる如くしたまはんことを

Now then, my son, the Lord be with thee, and do thou prosper, and build the house to the Lord thy God, as he hath spoken of thee.

12 惟ねがはくはヱホバ汝に智慧と穎悟を賜ひ汝をイスラエルの上に立て汝の神ヱホバの律法を汝に守らせたまはんことを

The Lord also give thee wisdom and understanding, that thou mayest be able to rule Israel, and to keep the law of the Lord thy God.

13 汝もしヱホバがイスラエルにつきてモーセに命じたまひし法度と例規を謹みて行はば汝旺盛になるべし心を強くしかつ勇め懼るる勿れ慄くなかれ

For then thou shalt be able to prosper, if thou keep the commandments, and judgments, which the Lord commanded Moses to teach Israel: take courage and act manfully, fear not, nor be dismayed.

14 視よ我患難の中にてヱホバの室のために金十萬タラント銀百萬タラントを備へまた銅と鐵とを數しれぬほど夥多しく備へたり又材木と石をも備へたり汝また之に加ふべし

Behold I in my poverty have prepared the charges of the house of the Lord, of gold a hundred thousand talents, and of silver a million of talents: but of brass, and of iron there is no weight, for the abundance surpasseth all account: timber also and stones I have prepared for all the charges.

15 かつまた工人夥多しく汝の手にあり即ち石や木を琢刻む者および諸の工作を爲すところの工匠など都てあり

Thou hast also workmen in abundance, hewers of stones, and masons, and carpenters, and of all trades the most skillful in their work,

16 夫金銀銅鐵は數限りなし汝起て爲せ願くはヱホバ汝とともに在せと

In gold, and in silver, and in brass, and in iron, whereof there is no number. Arise then, and be doing, and the Lord will be with thee.

17 ダビデまたイスラエルの一切の牧伯等にその子ソロモンを助くることを命じて云く

David also charged all the princes of Israel, to help Solomon his son,

18 汝らの神ヱホバなんぢらと偕に在すならずや四方において泰平を汝らに賜へるならずや即ちこの地の民を我手に付したまひてこの地はヱホバの前とその民の前に服せり

Saying: You see, that the Lord your God is with you, and hath given you rest round about, and hath delivered all your enemies into your hands, and the land is subdued before the Lord, and before his people.

19 然ば汝ら心をこめ精神をこめて汝らの神ヱホバを求めよ汝ら起てヱホバ神の聖所を建てヱホバの名のために建るその室にヱホバの契約の櫃と神の聖器を携さへいるべし

Give therefore your hearts and your souls, to seek the Lord your God: and arise, and build a sanctuary to the Lord God, that the ark of the covenant of the Lord, and the vessels consecrated to the Lord, may be brought into the house, which is built to the name of the Lord.
