< 列王記Ⅰ 9 >
1 ソロモン、ヱホバの家と王の家を建る事を終へ且凡てソロモンが爲んと欲し望を遂し時
When Solomon had finished the building of the LORD’s house, the king’s house, and all Solomon’s desire which he was pleased to do,
2 ヱホバ再ソロモンに甞てギベオンにて顯現たまひし如くあらはれたまひて
The LORD appeared to Solomon the second time, as he had appeared to him at Gibeon.
3 彼に言たまひけるは我は爾が我まへに願し祈祷と祈願を聽たり我爾が建たる此家を聖別てわが名を永く其處に置べし且わが目とわが心は恒に其處にあるべし
The LORD said to him, “I have heard your prayer and your supplication that you have made before me. I have made this house holy, which you have built, to put my name there forever; and my eyes and my heart shall be there perpetually.
4 爾若爾の父ダビデの歩みし如く心を完うして正しく我前に歩みわが爾に命じたる如く凡て行ひてわが憲法と律例を守らば
As for you, if you will walk before me as David your father walked, in integrity of heart and in uprightness, to do according to all that I have commanded you, and will keep my statutes and my ordinances,
5 我は爾の父ダビデに告てイスラエルの位に上る人爾に缺ること無るべしと言しごとく爾のイスラエルに王たる位を固うすべし
then I will establish the throne of your kingdom over Israel forever, as I promised to David your father, saying, ‘There shall not fail from you a man on the throne of Israel.’
6 若爾等又は爾等の子孫全く轉きて我にしたがはずわが爾等のまへに置たるわが誡命と法憲を守らずして往て他の神に事へ之を拝まば
But if you turn away from following me, you or your children, and not keep my commandments and my statutes which I have set before you, but go and serve other gods and worship them,
7 我イスラエルをわが與へたる地の面より絶ん又わが名のために我が聖別たる此家をば我わがまへより投げ棄んしかしてイスラエルは諸の民の中に諺語となり嘲笑となるべし
then I will cut off Israel out of the land which I have given them; and I will cast this house, which I have made holy for my name, out of my sight; and Israel will be a proverb and a byword amongst all peoples.
8 且又此家は高くあれども其傍を過る者は皆之に驚き嘶きて言んヱホバ何故に此地に此家に斯爲たまひしやと
Though this house is so high, yet everyone who passes by it will be astonished and hiss; and they will say, ‘Why has the LORD done this to this land and to this house?’
9 人答へて彼等は己の父祖をエジプトの地より導き出せし其神ヱホバを棄て他の神に附從ひ之を拝み之に事へしに因てヱホバ此の凡の害惡を其上に降せるなりと言ん
and they will answer, ‘Because they abandoned the LORD their God, who brought their fathers out of the land of Egypt, and embraced other gods, and worshipped them, and served them. Therefore the LORD has brought all this evil on them.’”
10 ソロモン二十年を經て二の家即ちヱホバの家と王の家を建をはりヒウムにガリラヤの地の城邑二十を與へたり
At the end of twenty years, in which Solomon had built the two houses, the LORD’s house and the king’s house
11 其はツロの王ヒラムはソロモンに凡て其望に循ひて香柏と松の木と金を供給たればなり
(now Hiram the king of Tyre had furnished Solomon with cedar trees and cypress trees, and with gold, according to all his desire), King Solomon gave Hiram twenty cities in the land of Galilee.
12 ヒラム、ツロより出てソロモンが己に與へたる諸邑を見しに其目に善らざりければ
Hiram came out of Tyre to see the cities which Solomon had given him; and they didn’t please him.
13 我兄第よ爾が我に與へたる此等の城邑は何なるやといひて之をカブルの地となづけたり其名今日までのこる
He said, “What cities are these which you have given me, my brother?” He called them the land of Cabul to this day.
Hiram sent to the king one hundred and twenty talents of gold.
15 ソロモン王の徴募人を興せし事は是なり即ちヱホバの家と自己の家とミロとエルサレムの石垣とハゾルとメギドンとゲゼルを建んが爲なりき
This is the reason of the forced labour which King Solomon conscripted: to build the LORD’s house, his own house, Millo, Jerusalem’s wall, Hazor, Megiddo, and Gezer.
16 エジプトの王パロ嘗て上りてゲゼルを取り火を以て之を燬き其邑に住るカナン人を殺し之をソロモンの妻なる其女に與へて粧奩と爲り
Pharaoh king of Egypt had gone up, taken Gezer, burnt it with fire, killed the Canaanites who lived in the city, and given it for a wedding gift to his daughter, Solomon’s wife.
Solomon built in the land Gezer, Beth Horon the lower,
Baalath, Tamar in the wilderness,
19 及びソロモンの有てる府庫の諸邑其戰車の諸邑其騎兵の諸邑並にソロモンがエルサレム、レバノンおよび其凡の領地に於て建んと欲し者を盡く建たり
all the storage cities that Solomon had, the cities for his chariots, the cities for his horsemen, and that which Solomon desired to build for his pleasure in Jerusalem, and in Lebanon, and in all the land of his dominion.
20 凡てイスラエルの子孫に非るアモリ人ヘテ人ペリジ人ヒビ人ヱブス人の遺存る者
As for all the people who were left of the Amorites, the Hittites, the Perizzites, the Hivites, and the Jebusites, who were not of the children of Israel—
21 其地に在て彼等の後に遺存る子孫即ちイスラエルの子孫の滅し盡すことを得ざりし者にソロモン奴隸の徴募を行ひて今日に至る
their children who were left after them in the land, whom the children of Israel were not able utterly to destroy—of them Solomon raised a levy of bondservants to this day.
22 然どもイステエルの子孫をばソロモン一人も奴隸と爲ざりき其は彼等は軍人彼の臣僕牧伯大將たり戰車と騎兵の長たればなり
But of the children of Israel Solomon made no bondservants; but they were the men of war, his servants, his princes, his captains, and rulers of his chariots and of his horsemen.
23 ソロモンの工事を管理れる首なる官吏は五百五十人にして工事に働く民を治めたり
These were the five hundred and fifty chief officers who were over Solomon’s work, who ruled over the people who laboured in the work.
24 爰にパロの女ダビデの城より上りてソロモンが彼のために建たる家に至る其時にソロモン、ミロを建たり
But Pharaoh’s daughter came up out of David’s city to her house which Solomon had built for her. Then he built Millo.
25 ソロモン、ヱホバに築きたる壇の上に年に三次燔祭と酬恩祭を献げ又ヱホバの前なる壇に香を焚りソロモン斯家を全うせり
Solomon offered burnt offerings and peace offerings on the altar which he built to the LORD three times per year, burning incense with them on the altar that was before the LORD. So he finished the house.
26 ソロモン王エドムの地紅海の濱に於てエラテの邊なるエジオンゲベルにて船數雙を造れり
King Solomon made a fleet of ships in Ezion Geber, which is beside Eloth, on the shore of the Red Sea, in the land of Edom.
27 ヒラム海の事を知れる舟人なる其僕をソロモンの僕と偕に其船にて遣せり
Hiram sent in the fleet his servants, sailors who had knowledge of the sea, with the servants of Solomon.
28 彼等オフルに至り其處より金四百二十タラントを取てこれをソロモン王の所に携來る
They came to Ophir, and fetched from there gold, four hundred and twenty talents, and brought it to King Solomon.
