< 歴代誌Ⅱ 2 >
1 茲にソロモン、ヱホバの名のために一の家を建てまた己の國のために一の家を建んとし
Then Salomon determined to builde an house for the Name of the Lord, and an house for his kingdome.
2 ソロモンすなはち荷を負べき者七萬人山において木や石を斫べき者八萬人是等を監督すべき者三千六百人を數へ出せり
And Salomon tolde out seuentie thousand that bare burdens, and fourescore thousande men to hewe stones in the mountaine, and three thousand and sixe hundreth to ouersee them.
3 ソロモンまづツロの王ヒラムに人を遣して言しめけるは汝はわが父ダビデにその住むべき家を建る香柏をおくれり請ふ彼になせしごとく亦我にもせよ
And Salomon sent to Huram the king of Tyrus, saying, As thou hast done to Dauid my father, and didst sende him cedar trees to buylde him an house to dwell in, so do to me.
4 今我わが神ヱホバの名のために一の家を建て之を聖別て彼に奉つり彼の前に馨しき香を焚き常に供前のパンを供へ燔祭を朝夕に献げまた安息日月朔ならびに我らの神ヱホバの節期などに献げんとす是はイスラエルの永く行ふべき事なればなり
Behold, I buylde an house vnto the Name of the Lord my God, to sanctifie it vnto him, and to burne sweete incense before him, and for the continuall shewbread, and for the burnt offrings of the morning and euening, on the Sabbath dayes, and in the new moneths, and in the solemne feastes of the Lord our God: this is a perpetuall thing for Israel.
5 我建る家は大なり其は我らの神は諸の神よりも大なればなり
And the house which I buylde, is great: for great is our God aboue all gods.
6 然ながら天も諸天の天も彼を容ること能はざれば誰か彼のために家を建ることを得んや我は何人ぞや爭か彼のために家を建ることを得ん唯彼の前に香を焚くためのみ
Who is he then that can be able to buylde him an house, when the heauen, and the heauen of heauens can not conteine him? who am I then that I should buylde him an house? but I do it to burne incense before him.
7 然ば請ふ今金銀銅鐵の細工および紫赤靑の製造に精しく雕刻の術に巧なる工人一箇を我に遣り我父ダビデが備へおきたるユダとヱルサレムのわが工人とともに操作しめよ
Sende me nowe therefore a cunning man that can worke in golde, in siluer, and in brasse, and in yron, and in purple, and crimosin and blue silke, and that can graue in grauen worke with the cunning men that are with me in Iudah and in Ierusalem, whom Dauid my father hath prepared.
8 請ふ汝また香柏松木および白檀をレバノンより我におくれ我なんぢの僕等がレバノンにて木を斫ることを善するを知るなり我僕また汝の僕と共に操作べし
Sende mee also cedar trees, firre trees and Algummim trees from Lebanon: for I knowe that thy seruants can skill to hewe timber in Lebanon: and beholde, my seruantes shalbe with thine,
9 是のごとくして我ために材木を多く備へしめよ其は我が建んとする家は高大を極むる者なるべければなり
That they may prepare me timber in abundance: for the house which I doe buylde, is great and wonderfull.
10 我は木を斫る汝の僕に搗麥二萬石大麥二萬石酒二萬バテ油二萬バテを與ふべしと
And behold, I will giue to thy seruants the cutters and the hewers of timber twentie thousand measures of beaten wheate, and twentie thousand measures of barley, and twentie thousand baths of wine, and twentie thousand baths of oyle.
11 是においてツロの王ヒラム書をソロモンにおくりて之に答へて云ふヱホバその民を愛するが故に汝をもて之が王となせりと
Then Huram King of Tyrus answered in writing which he sent to Salomon, Because the Lord hath loued his people, he hath made thee King ouer them.
12 ヒラムまた言けるは天地の造主なるイスラエルの神ヱホバは讃べきかな彼はダビデ王に賢き子を與へて之に分別と才智とを賦け之をしてヱホバのために家を建てまた己の國のために家を建ることを得せしむ 今我わが達人ヒラムといふ才智ある工人一人を汝におくる
Huram sayd moreouer, Blessed be the Lord God of Israel, which made the heauen and the earth, and that hath giuen vnto Dauid the King a wise sonne, that hath discretion, prudence and vnderstanding to buylde an house for the Lord, and a palace for his kingdome.
Now therefore I haue sent a wise man, and of vnderstanding of my father Hurams,
14 彼はダンの子孫たる婦の產る者にて其父はツロの人なるが金銀銅鐵木石の細工および紫布靑布細布赤布の織法に精しく又能く各種の雕刻を爲し奇巧を凝して諸の工をなすなり然ば彼を用ひてなんぢの工人および汝の父わが主ダビデの工人とともに操作しめよ
The sonne of a woman of the daughters of Dan: and his father was a man of Tyrus, and he can skill to worke in golde, in siluer, in brasse, in yron, in stone, and in timber, in purple, in blue silke, and in fine linen, and in crimosin, and can graue in all grauen workes, and broyder in all broydered worke that shalbe giuen him, with thy cunning men, and with the cunning men of my lord Dauid thy father.
15 是については我主の宣まへる小麥大麥油および酒をその僕等に遣りたまへ
Now therefore the wheate and the barley, the oyle and the wine, which my lorde hath spoken of, let him send vnto his seruants.
16 汝の凡て需むるごとく我らレバノンより木を斫いだしこれを筏にくみて海よりヨツバにおくるべければ汝これをヱルサレムに運びのぼりたまへと
And we wil cut wood in Lebanon as much as thou shalt neede, and will bring it to thee in raftes by the sea to Iapho, so thou mayest cary them to Ierusalem.
17 ここにおいてソロモンその父ダビデが核數しごとくイスラエルの國にをる異邦人をことごとく核數みるに合せて十五萬三千六百人ありければ
And Salomon nombred al the strangers that were in the land of Israel, after the nombring that his father Dauid had nombred them: and they were found an hundreth and three and fiftie thousand, and sixe hundreth.
18 その七萬人をもて荷を負ふ者となし八萬人をもて山にて木や石を斫る者となし三千六百人をもて民を操作かしむる監督者となせり
And he set seuentie thousande of them to the burden, and fourescore thousande to hewe stones in the mountaine, and three thousande and sixe hundreth ouerseers to cause the people to worke.
