歴代誌Ⅱ 5

1 斯ソロモンがヱホバの家のために爲る一切の工事をはれり是においてソロモンその父ダビデが奉納たる物なる金銀および諸の器皿を携へいりて神の家の府庫の中に置り

Thus all the work that Solomon did for the house of the LORD was finished. Solomon brought in the things that David his father had dedicated, even the silver, and the gold, and all the vessels, and put them in the treasuries of the house of God.

2 茲にソロモン、ヱホバの契約の櫃をダビデの邑シオンより舁のぼらんとてイスラエルの長老者と諸の支派の長等イスラエルの子孫の宗家の長をヱルサレムに召集めければ

Then Solomon assembled the elders of Israel, and all the heads of the tribes, the ancestral leaders of the children of Israel, to Jerusalem, to bring up the ark of the covenant of the LORD out of the City of David, which is Zion.

3 イスラエルの人みな七月の節筵に當りて王の所に集まり

And all the men of Israel assembled themselves to the king at the feast, which was in the seventh month.

4 イスラエルの長老等みな至りレビ人契約の櫃を執あげ

All the elders of Israel came: and the Levites took up the ark;

5 その契約の櫃と集會の幕屋と幕屋にありし諸の聖器を舁のぼれり即ち祭司レビ人これを舁のぼりぬ

and they brought up the ark, and the Tent of Meeting, and all the holy vessels that were in the Tent; these the priests the Levites brought up.

6 時にソロモン王および彼の許に集まれるイスラエルの會衆契約の櫃の前にありて羊と牛を献げたりしがその數多くして書すことも數ふることも能はざりき

King Solomon and all the congregation of Israel, that were assembled to him, were before the ark, sacrificing sheep and cattle, that could not be counted nor numbered for multitude.

7 かくて祭司等ヱホバの契約の櫃をその處に舁いれたり即ち室の神殿なる至聖所の中のケルビムの翼の下に舁いりぬ

The priests brought in the ark of the covenant of the LORD to its place, into the inner sanctuary of the house, to the most holy place, under the wings of the cherubim.

8 ケルビムは翼を契約の櫃の所の上に舒べケルビム上より契約の櫃とその杠を掩ふ

For the cherubim spread forth their wings over the place of the ark, and the cherubim covered the ark and its poles above.

9 杠長かりければ杠の末は神殿の前の契約の櫃より見えたり然れども外には見えざりき其は今日まで彼處にあり

The poles were so long that the ends of the poles were seen from the holy place before the inner sanctuary; but they were not seen outside. And they are there to this day.

10 契約の櫃の内には二枚の板の外何もあらず是はイスラエルの子孫のエジプトより出たる時ヱホバが彼らと契約を結びたまへる時にモーセがホレブにて蔵めたる者なり

There was nothing in the ark except the two tablets which Moses put at Horeb, when the LORD made a covenant with the children of Israel, when they came out of Egypt.

11 斯て祭司等は聖所より出たり此にありし祭司はみな身を潔めその班列によらずして職務をなせり

It happened, when the priests had come out of the holy place, (for all the priests who were present had sanctified themselves, regardless of the divisions;

12 またレビ人の謳歌者すなはちアサフ、ヘマン、ヱドトン及び彼らの子等と兄弟等はみな細布を纒ひ鐃鈸と瑟と琴とを操て壇の東に立りまた祭司百二十人彼らとともにありて喇叭を吹り

also the Levites who were the singers, all of them, even Asaph, Heman, Jeduthun, and their sons and their brothers, arrayed in fine linen, with cymbals and stringed instruments and harps, stood at the east end of the altar, and with them one hundred twenty priests sounding with trumpets; )

13 喇叭を吹く者と謳歌者とは一人のごとくに聲を斉うしてヱホバを讃かつ頌へたりしが彼ら喇叭鐃鈸等の樂器をもちて聲をふりたて善かなヱホバその矜憫は世々限なしと言てヱホバを讃ける時に雲その室すなはちヱホバの室に充り

it happened, when the trumpeters and singers were as one, to make one sound to be heard in praising and thanking the LORD; and when they lifted up their voice with the trumpets and cymbals and instruments of music, and praised the LORD, saying, "For he is good; for his loving kindness endures forever," then the house was filled with a cloud, even the house of the LORD,

14 祭司は雲の故をもて立て奉事をなすことを得ざりきヱホバの榮光神の室に充たればなり

so that the priests could not stand to minister by reason of the cloud: for the glory of the LORD filled God's house.
