歴代誌Ⅱ 6

1 是においてソロモン言けるはヱホバは濃き雲の中に居んと言たまひしが

Then Salomon sayd, The Lord hath sayde that he would dwell in the darke cloude:

2 我汝のために住むべき家永久に居べき所を建たりと

And I haue built thee an house to dwell in, an habitation for thee to dwell in for euer.

3 而して王その面をふりむけてイスラエルの全會衆を祝せり時にイスラエルの會衆は皆立をれり

And the King turned his face, and blessed all the Congregation of Israel (for all the Congregation of Israel stoode there)

4 彼いひけるはイスラエルの神ヱホバは讃べき哉ヱホバはその口をもて吾父ダビデに言ひその手をもて之を成とげたまへり

And he said, Blessed be the Lord God of Israel, who spake with his mouth vnto Dauid my father, and hath with his hand fulfilled it, saying,

5 即ち言たまひけらく我はわが民をエジプトの地より導き出せし日より我名を置べき家を建しめんためにイスラエルの諸の支派の中より何の邑をも選みしこと無く又何人をも選みて我民イスラエルの君となせしこと無し

Since the day that I brought my people out of the land of Egypt, I chose no citie of al the tribes of Israel to buylde an house, that my Name might be there, neyther chose I any man to be a ruler ouer my people Israel:

6 只我はわが名を置くためにヱルサレムを選みまた我民イスラエルを治めしむるためにダビデを選めり

But I haue chosen Ierusalem, that my Name might be there, and haue chosen Dauid to be ouer my people Israel.

7 夫イスラエルの神ヱホバの名のために家を建ることは我父ダビデの心にありき

And it was in the heart of Dauid my father to builde an house vnto the Name of the Lord God of Israel,

8 然るにヱホバわが父ダビデに言たまひけるは我名のために家を建ること汝の心にあり汝の心にこの事あるは善し

But the Lord sayde to Dauid my father, Whereas it was in thine heart to buylde an house vnto my Name, thou diddest well, that thou wast so minded.

9 然れども汝はその家を建べからず汝の腰より出る汝の子その人わが名のために家を建べしと

Notwithstanding thou shalt not build the house, but thy sonne which shall come out of thy loynes, he shall buylde an house vnto my Name.

10 而してヱホバその言たまひし言をおこなひたまへり即ち我わが父ダビデに代りて立ちヱホバの言たまひしごとくイスラエルの位に坐しイスラエルの神ヱホバの名のために家を建て

And the Lord hath performed his worde that he spake: and I am risen vp in the roume of Dauid my father, and am set on the throne of Israel as the Lord promised, and haue built an house to the Name of the Lord God of Israel.

11 その中にヱホバがイスラエルの子孫になしたまひし契約を容る櫃ををさめたりと

And I haue set the Arke there, wherein is the couenant of the Lord, that he made with the children of Israel.

12 ソロモン、イスラエルの全會衆の前にてヱホバの壇の前に立てその手を舒ぶ

And the King stoode before the altar of the Lord, in the presence of all the Congregation of Israel, and stretched out his hands,

13 ソロモンさきに長五キユビト濶五キユビト高三キユビトの銅の臺を造りてこれを庭の眞中に据おきたりしが乃ちその上に立ちイスラエルの全會衆の前にて膝をかがめ其手を天に舒て

(For Salomon had made a brasen skaffold and set it in the middes of the court, of fiue cubites long, and fiue cubites broade, and three cubites of height, and vpon it he stoode, and kneeled downe vpon his knees before all the Congregation of Israel, and stretched out his hands toward heauen)

14 言けるはイスラエルの神ヱホバ天にも地にも汝のごとき神なし汝は契約を保ちたまひ心を全うして汝の前に歩むところの汝の僕等に恩惠を施こしたまふ

And sayd, O Lord God of Israel, there is no God like thee in heauen nor in earth, which keepest couenant, and mercie vnto thy seruants, that walke before thee with all their heart.

15 汝は汝の僕わが父ダビデにのたまひし所を保ちたまへり汝は口をもて言ひ手をもて成就たまへること今日のごとし

Thou that hast kept with thy seruant Dauid my father, that thou hast promised him: for thou spakest with thy mouth, and hast fulfilled it with thine hand, as appeareth this day.

16 イスラエルの神ヱホバよ然ば汝が僕わが父ダビデに語りて若し汝の子孫その道を愼みて汝がわが前に歩めるごとくに我律法にあゆまばイスラエルの位に坐する人わが前にて汝に缺ること無るべしと言たまひし事をダビデのために保ちたまへ

Therefore now Lord God of Israel, keepe with thy seruant Dauid my father, that thou hast promised him, saying, Thou shalt not want a man in my sight, that shall sit vpon the throne of Israel: so that thy sonnes take heede to their wayes, to walke in my Lawe, as thou hast walked before me.

17 然ばイスラエルの神ヱホバよ汝が僕ダビデに言たまへるなんぢの言に效驗あらしめたまへ

And now, O Lord God of Israel, let thy worde be verified, which thou spakest vnto thy seruant Dauid.

18 但し神果して地の上に人とともに居たまふや夫天も諸天の天も汝を容るに足ず况て我が建たる此家をや

(Is it true in deede that God will dwell with man on earth? beholde, the heauens, and the heauens of heauens are not able to conteine thee: how much more vnable is this house, which I haue buylt?)

19 然れども我神ヱホバよ僕の祈祷と懇願をかへりみて僕が今汝の前に祈るその號呼と祈祷を聽たまへ

But haue thou respect to the prayer of thy seruant, and to his supplication, O Lord my God, to heare the crye and prayer which thy seruant prayeth before thee,

20 願くは汝の目を夜晝此家の上即ち汝が其名を置んと言たまへる所の上に開きたまへ願くは僕がこの處にむかひて祈らん祈祷を聽たまへ

That thine eyes may be open toward this house day and night, euen toward the place, whereof thou hast sayde, that thou wouldest put thy Name there, that thou mayest hearken vnto the prayer, which thy seruant prayeth in this place.

21 願くは僕と汝の民イスラエルがこの處にむかひて祈る時にその懇願を聽たまへ請ふ汝の住處なる天より聽き聽て赦したまへ

Heare thou therefore the supplication of thy seruant, and of thy people Israel, which they pray in this place: and heare thou in the place of thine habitation, euen in heauen, and when thou hearest, be mercifull.

22 人その隣人にむかひて罪を犯せることありてその人誓をもて誓ふことを要められんに若し來りてこの家において汝の壇の前に誓ひなば

When a man shall sinne against his neighbour, and he laye vpon him an othe to cause him to sweare, and the swearer shall come before thine altar in this house,

23 汝天より聽て行ひ汝の僕等を鞫き惡き者に返報をなしてその道をその首に歸し義者を義としてその義にしたがひて之を待ひたまへ

Then heare thou in heauen, and doe, and iudge thy seruants, in recompensing the wicked to bring his way vpon his head, and in iustifying the righteous, to giue him according to his righteousnes.

24 汝の民イスラエルなんぢに罪を犯したるがために敵の前に敗れんに若なんぢに歸りて汝の名を崇め此家にて汝の前に祈り願ひなば

And when thy people Israel shalbe ouerthrowen before the enemie, because they haue sinned against thee, and turne againe, and confesse thy Name, and pray, and make supplication before thee in this house,

25 汝天より聽て汝の民イスラエルの罪を赦し汝が彼等とその先祖に與へし地に彼等を歸らしめたまへ

Then heare thou in heauen, and be mercifull vnto the sinne of thy people Israel, and bring them againe vnto the land which thou gauest to them and to their fathers.

26 彼らが汝に罪を犯したるがために天閉て雨なからんに彼ら若この處にむかひて祈り汝の名を崇め汝が彼らを苦しめたまふ時にその罪を離れなば

When heauen shall be shut vp, and there shalbe no rayne, because they haue sinned against thee, and shall pray in this place, and confesse thy Name, and turne from their sinne, when thou doest afflict them,

27 汝天より聽きて汝の僕等なんぢの民イスラエルの罪を赦したまへ汝旣にかれらにその歩むべき善道を敎へたまへり汝の民に與へて產業となさしめたまひし汝の地に雨を降したまへ

Then heare thou in heauen, and pardon the sinne of thy seruants, and of thy people Israel (when thou hast taught them the good way wherein they may walke) and giue rayne vpon thy lande, which thou hast giuen vnto thy people for an inheritance.

28 若くは國に饑饉あるか若くは疫病枯死朽腐蟊賊稲蠹あるか若くは其敵かれらをその國の邑に圍む等如何なる災禍如何なる疾病あるとも

When there shalbe famine in the land, when there shalbe pestilence, blasting, or mildew, when there shall be grashopper, or caterpiller, when their enemie shall besiege them in the cities of their land, or any plague or any sickenesse,

29 もし一人或は汝の民イスラエルみな各々おのれの災禍と憂患を知てこの家にむかひて手を舒なば如何なる祈祷如何なる懇願をなすとも

Then what prayer and supplication so euer shalbe made of any man, or of all thy people Israel, whe euery one shall knowe his owne plague, and his owne disease, and shall stretch forth his hands toward this house,

30 汝の住處なる天より聽て赦し各々の人にその心を知たまふごとくその道々にしたがひて報いたまへ其は汝のみ人々の心を知たまへばなり

Heare thou then in heauen, thy dwelling place, and be merciful, and giue euery man according vnto all his wayes, as thou doest knowe his heart (for thou onely knowest the hearts of the children of men)

31 汝かく彼らをして汝が彼らの先祖に與へたまへる地に居る日の間つねに汝を畏れしめ汝の道に歩ましめたまへ

That they may feare thee, and walke in thy wayes as long as they liue in the land which thou gauest vnto our fathers.

32 且汝の民イスラエルの者にあらずして汝の大なる名と強き手と伸たる腕とのために遠き國より來れる異邦人においてもまた若來りてこの家にむかひて祈らば

Moreouer, as touching ye stranger which is not of thy people Israel, who shall come out of a farre countrey for thy great Names sake, and thy mighty hande, and thy stretched out arme: when they shall come and pray in this house,

33 汝の住處なる天より聽き凡て異邦人の汝に龥もとむるごとく成たまへ汝かく地の諸の民をして汝の名を知らしめ汝の民イスラエルの爲ごとくに汝を畏れしめ又わが建たる此家は汝の名をもて稱らるるといふことを知しめたまへ

Heare thou in heauen thy dwelling place, and doe according to all that the stranger calleth for vnto thee, that all the people of the earth may knowe thy Name, and feare thee like thy people Israel, and that they may knowe, that thy Name is called vpon in this house which I haue built.

34 汝の民その敵と戰はんとて汝の遣はしたまふ道に進める時もし汝が選びたまへるこの邑およびわが汝の名のために建たる家にむかひて汝に祈らば

When thy people shall goe out to battell against their enemies, by the way that thou shalt send them, and they pray to thee, in the way towarde this citie, which thou hast chosen, euen toward the house which I haue built to thy Name,

35 汝天より彼らの祈祷と懇願を聽て彼らを助けたまへ

Then heare thou in heauen their prayer and their supplication, and iudge their cause.

36 人は罪を犯さざる者なければ彼ら汝に罪を犯すことありて汝かれらを怒り彼らをその敵に付したまひて敵かれらを虜として遠き地または近き地に曳ゆかん時

If they sinne against thee (for there is no man that sinneth not) and thou be angry with them and deliuer them vnto the enemies, and they take them and cary them away captiue vnto a land farre or neere,

37 彼らその擄れゆきし地において自ら心に了るところあり其俘擄の地において翻へりて汝に祈り我らは罪を犯し悖れる事を爲し惡き事を行ひたりと言ひ

If they turne againe to their heart in the lande whither they be caryed in captiues, and turne and pray vnto thee in the lande of their captiuitie, saying, We haue sinned, we haue transgressed and haue done wickedly,

38 その擄へゆかれし俘擄の地にて一心一念に汝に立歸り汝がその先祖に與へたまへる地にむかひ汝が選びたまへる邑と我が汝の名のために建たる家にむかひて祈らば

If they turne againe to thee with all their heart, and with all their soule in the land of their captiuitie, whither they haue caryed them captiues, and pray toward their land, which thou gauest vnto their fathers, and toward the citie which thou hast chosen, and toward the house which I haue built for thy Name,

39 汝の住處なる天より彼らの祈祷と懇願を聽て彼らを助け汝の民が汝にむかひて罪を犯したるを赦したまへ

Then heare thou in heauen, in the place of thine habitation their prayer and their supplication, and iudge their cause, and be mercifull vnto thy people, which haue sinned against thee.

40 然ば我神よ願くは此處にて爲す祈祷に汝の目を開き耳を傾むけたまヘ

Nowe my God, I beseech thee, let thine eyes be open, and thine eares attent vnto the prayer that is made in this place.

41 ヱホバ神よ今汝および汝の力ある契約の櫃起て汝の安居の所にいりたまへヱホバ神よ願くは汝の祭司等に拯救の衣を纒はせ汝の聖徒等に恩惠を喜こばせたまヘ

Nowe therefore arise, O Lord God, to come into thy rest, thou, and the Arke of thy strength: O Lord God, let thy Priestes be clothed with saluation, and let thy Saints reioyce in goodnesse.

42 ヱホバ神よ汝の膏そそぎし者の面を黜ぞけたまふ勿れ汝の僕ダビデの徳行を記念たまへ

O Lord God, refuse not the face of thine anoynted: remember the mercies promised to Dauid thy seruant.
