< 歴代誌Ⅰ 29 >
1 ダビデ王また全會衆に言けるは我子ソロモンは神の惟獨選びたまへる者なるが少くして弱く此工事は大なり此殿は人のために非ずヱホバ神のためにする者なればなり
David the king said to all the assembly, “Solomon my son, whom alone God has chosen, is yet young and tender, and the work is great; for the palace is not for man, but for the LORD God.
2 是をもて我力を盡して我神の家のために物を備へたり即ち金の物を作る金 銀の物の銀 銅の物の銅 鐵の物の鐵 木の物の木を備へたり又葱珩 嵌石 黑石火崗諸の寶石蝋石など夥多し
Now I have prepared with all my might for the house of my God the gold for the things of gold, the silver for the things of silver, the bronze for the things of bronze, iron for the things of iron, and wood for the things of wood, also onyx stones, stones to be set, stones for inlaid work of various colours, all kinds of precious stones, and marble stones in abundance.
3 かつまた我わが神の家を悦ぶが故に聖所のために備へたる一切の物の外にまた自己の所有なる金銀をわが神の家に献ぐ
In addition, because I have set my affection on the house of my God, since I have a treasure of my own of gold and silver, I give it to the house of my God, over and above all that I have prepared for the holy house:
4 即ちオフルの金三千タラント精銀七千タラントを献げてその家々の壁を蔽ふに供ふ
even three thousand talents of gold, of the gold of Ophir, and seven thousand talents of refined silver, with which to overlay the walls of the houses;
5 金は金の物に銀は銀の物に凡て工人の手にて作るものに用ふべし誰か今日自ら進んでヱホバのためにその手に物を盈さんかと
of gold for the things of gold, and of silver for the things of silver, and for all kinds of work to be made by the hands of artisans. Who then offers willingly to consecrate himself today to the LORD?”
6 是において宗家の長イスラエルの支派の牧伯等千人の長百人の長および王の工事を掌どる者等誠意より献物をなせり
Then the princes of the fathers’ households, and the princes of the tribes of Israel, and the captains of thousands and of hundreds, with the rulers over the king’s work, offered willingly;
7 その神の家の奉事のために献げたるものは金五千タラント一萬ダリク銀一萬タラント銅一萬八千タラント鐵十萬タラント
and they gave for the service of God’s house of gold five thousand talents and ten thousand darics, of silver ten thousand talents, of bronze eighteen thousand talents, and of iron one hundred thousand talents.
8 また寶石ある者はゲルシヨン人ヱヒエルの手に託て之を神の家の府庫に納めたり
People with whom precious stones were found gave them to the treasure of the LORD’s house, under the hand of Jehiel the Gershonite.
9 彼ら斯誠意よりみづから進んでヱホバに献げたれば民その献ぐるを喜べりダビデ王もまた大に喜びぬ
Then the people rejoiced, because they offered willingly, because with a perfect heart they offered willingly to the LORD; and David the king also rejoiced with great joy.
10 茲にダビデ全會衆の前にてヱホバを頌へたりダビデの曰く我らの先祖イスラエルの神ヱホバよ汝は世々限なく頌へまつるべきなり
Therefore David blessed the LORD before all the assembly; and David said, “You are blessed, LORD, the God of Israel our father, forever and ever.
11 ヱホバよ權勢と能力と榮光と光輝と威光とは汝に屬す凡て天にある者地にある者はみな汝に屬すヱホバよ國もまた汝に屬す汝は萬有の首と崇られたまふ
Yours, LORD, is the greatness, the power, the glory, the victory, and the majesty! For all that is in the heavens and in the earth is yours. Yours is the kingdom, LORD, and you are exalted as head above all.
12 富と貴とは共に汝より出づ汝は萬有を主宰たまふ汝の手には權勢と能力あり汝の手は能く一切をして大たらしめ又強くならしむるなり
Both riches and honour come from you, and you rule over all! In your hand is power and might! It is in your hand to make great, and to give strength to all!
13 然ば我儕の神よ我儕今なんぢに感謝し汝の尊き名を讃美す
Now therefore, our God, we thank you and praise your glorious name.
14 但し我ら斯のごとく自ら進んで献ぐることを得たるも我は何ならんやまた我民は何ならんや萬の物は汝より出づ我らは只汝の手より受て汝に献げたるなり
But who am I, and what is my people, that we should be able to offer so willingly as this? For all things come from you, and we have given you of your own.
15 汝の前にありては我らは先祖等のごとく旅客たり寄寓者たり我らの世にある日は影のごとし望む所ある無し
For we are strangers before you and foreigners, as all our fathers were. Our days on the earth are as a shadow, and there is no remaining.
16 我らの神ヱホバよ汝の聖名のために汝に家を建んとて我らが備へたる此衆多の物は凡て汝の手より出づ亦皆なんぢの所有なり
LORD our God, all this store that we have prepared to build you a house for your holy name comes from your hand, and is all your own.
17 我神よ我また知る汝は心を鑒みたまひ又正直を悦びたまふ我は正き心をもて眞實より此一切の物を献げたり今我また此にある汝の民が眞實より献物をするを見て喜悦にたへざるなり
I know also, my God, that you try the heart and have pleasure in uprightness. As for me, in the uprightness of my heart I have willingly offered all these things. Now I have seen with joy your people, who are present here, offer willingly to you.
18 我らの先祖アブラハム、イサク、イスラエルの神ヱホバよ汝の民をして此精神を何時までもその心の思念に保たしめその心を固く汝に歸せしめたまへ
LORD, the God of Abraham, of Isaac, and of Israel, our fathers, keep this desire forever in the thoughts of the heart of your people, and prepare their heart for you;
19 又わが子ソロモンに完全心を與へ汝の誡命と汝の證言と汝の法度を守らせて之をことごとく行はせ我が備をなせるその殿を建させたまへ
and give to Solomon my son a perfect heart, to keep your commandments, your testimonies, and your statutes, and to do all these things, and to build the palace, for which I have made provision.”
20 ダビデまた全會衆にむかひて汝ら今なんぢらの神ヱホバを頌へよと言ければ全會衆その先祖等の神ヱホバを頌へ俯てヱホバと王とを拝せり
Then David said to all the assembly, “Now bless the LORD your God!” All the assembly blessed the LORD, the God of their fathers, and bowed down their heads and prostrated themselves before the LORD and the king.
21 而して其翌日に至りてイスラエルの一切の人のためにヱホバに犠牲を献げヱホバに燔祭を献げたり其牡牛一千牡羊一千羔羊一千またその灌祭と祭物夥多しかりき
They sacrificed sacrifices to the LORD and offered burnt offerings to the LORD on the next day after that day, even one thousand bulls, one thousand rams, and one thousand lambs, with their drink offerings and sacrifices in abundance for all Israel,
22 その日彼ら大に喜びてヱホバの前に食ひかつ飮み/さらに改めてダビデの子ソロモンを王となしヱホバの前にてこれに膏をそそぎて主君となし又ザドクを祭司となせり
and ate and drank before the LORD on that day with great gladness. They made Solomon the son of David king the second time, and anointed him before the LORD to be prince, and Zadok to be priest.
23 かくてソロモンはヱホバの位に坐しその父ダビデに代りて王となりその繁榮を極むイスラエルみな之に從がふ
Then Solomon sat on the throne of the LORD as king instead of David his father, and prospered; and all Israel obeyed him.
24 また一切の牧伯等勇士等およびダビデ王の諸の子等みなソロモン王に服事す
All the princes, the mighty men, and also all of the sons of King David submitted themselves to Solomon the king.
25 ヱホバ、イスラエルの目の前にてソロモンを甚だ大ならしめ彼より前のイスラエルの王の未だ得たること有ざる王威を之に賜へり
The LORD magnified Solomon exceedingly in the sight of all Israel, and gave to him such royal majesty as had not been on any king before him in Israel.
26 夫ヱツサイの子ダビデはイスラエルの全地を治めたり
Now David the son of Jesse reigned over all Israel.
27 そのイスラエルを治めし間は四十年なり即ちヘブロンにて七年世を治めヱルサレムにて三十三年世を治めたりき
The time that he reigned over Israel was forty years; he reigned seven years in Hebron, and he reigned thirty-three years in Jerusalem.
28 遐齡にいたり年も富も尊貴も滿足て死り其子ソロモンこれに代りて王となる
He died at a good old age, full of days, riches, and honour; and Solomon his son reigned in his place.
29 ダビデ王が始より終まで爲たる事等は先見者サムエルの書預言者ナタンの書および先見者ガドの書に記さる
Now the acts of David the king, first and last, behold, they are written in the history of Samuel the seer, and in the history of Nathan the prophet, and in the history of Gad the seer,
30 其中にはまた彼の政治とその能力および彼とイスラエルと國々の諸の民に臨みしところの事等を載す
with all his reign and his might, and the events that involved him, Israel, and all the kingdoms of the lands.
