< 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 said Solomon, The LORD has said that he would dwell in the thick darkness.
2 我汝のために住むべき家永久に居べき所を建たりと
But I have built an house of habitation for you, and a place for your dwelling for ever.
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 the whole congregation of Israel: and all the congregation of Israel stood.
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 has with his hands fulfilled that which he spoke with his mouth to my father David, 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 forth my people out of the land of Egypt I chose no city among all the tribes of Israel to build an house in, that my name might be there; neither chose I any man to be a ruler over 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 have chosen Jerusalem, that my name might be there; and have chosen David to be over 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
Now it was in the heart of David my father to build an house for 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 said to David my father, Forasmuch as it was in your heart to build an house for my name, you did well in that it was in your heart:
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 you shall not build the house; but your son which shall come forth out of your loins, he shall build the house for 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
The LORD therefore has performed his word that he has spoken: for I am risen up in the room of David my father, and am set on the throne of Israel, as the LORD promised, and have built the house for 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 in it have I put the ark, wherein is the covenant 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 he stood before the altar of the LORD in the presence of all the congregation of Israel, and spread forth 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 Solomon had made a brazen scaffold of five cubits long, and five cubits broad, and three cubits high, and had set it in the midst of the court: and upon it he stood, and kneeled down upon his knees before all the congregation of Israel, and spread forth his hands toward heaven.
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 said, O LORD God of Israel, there is no God like you in the heaven, nor in the earth; which keep covenant, and show mercy unto your servants, that walk before you with all their hearts:
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
You which have kept with your servant David my father that which you have promised him; and spoke with your mouth, and have fulfilled it with your hand, as it is 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
Now therefore, O LORD God of Israel, keep with your servant David my father that which you have promised him, saying, There shall not fail you a man in my sight to sit upon the throne of Israel; yet so that your children take heed to their way to walk in my law, as you have 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
Now then, O LORD God of Israel, let your word be verified, which you have spoken unto your servant David.
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
But will God in very deed dwell with men on the earth? behold, heaven and the heaven of heavens cannot contain you; how much less this house which I have built!
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
Have respect therefore to the prayer of your servant, and to his supplication, O LORD my God, to hearken unto the cry and the prayer which your servant prays before you:
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 your eyes may be open upon this house day and night, upon the place whereof you have said that you would put your name there; to hearken unto the prayer which your servant prays toward 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
Hearken therefore unto the supplications of your servant, and of your people Israel, which they shall make toward this place: hear you from your dwelling place, even from heaven; and when you hear, forgive.
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
If a man sin against his neighbour, and an oath be laid upon him to make him swear, and the oath come before your 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 hear you from heaven, and do, and judge your servants, by requiting the wicked, by recompensing his way upon his own head; and by justifying the righteous, by giving him according to his righteousness.
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 if your people Israel be put to the worse before the enemy, because they have sinned against you; and shall return and confess your name, and pray and make supplication before you 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 hear you from the heavens, and forgive the sin of your people Israel, and bring them again unto the land which you gave 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 the heaven is shut up, and there is no rain, because they have sinned against you; yet if they pray toward this place, and confess your name, and turn from their sin, when you do 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 hear you from heaven, and forgive the sin of your servants, and of your people Israel, when you have taught them the good way, wherein they should walk; and send rain upon your land, which you have given unto your 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
If there be dearth in the land, if there be pestilence, if there be blasting, or mildew, locusts, or caterpillars; if their enemies besiege them in the cities of their land; whatsoever sore or whatsoever sickness there be:
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 or what supplication whatsoever shall be made of any man, or of all your people Israel, when every one shall know his own sore and his own grief, and shall spread forth his hands in 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
Then hear you from heaven your dwelling place, and forgive, and render unto every man according unto all his ways, whose heart you know; (for you only know 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 fear you, to walk in your ways, so long as they live in the land which you gave unto 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
Moreover concerning the stranger, which is not of your people Israel, but has come from a far country for your great name's sake, and your mighty hand, and your stretched out arm; if they 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
Then hear you from the heavens, even from your dwelling place, and do according to all that the stranger calls to you for; that all people of the earth may know your name, and fear you, as does your people Israel, and may know that this house which I have built is called by your name.
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
If your people go out to war against their enemies by the way that you shall send them, and they pray unto you toward this city which you have chosen, and the house which I have built for your 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 hear you from the heavens their prayer and their supplication, and maintain 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 sin against you, (for there is no man which sins not, ) and you be angry with them, and deliver them over before their enemies, and they carry them away captives unto a land far off or near;
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
Yet if they call to reflect themselves in the land where they are carried captive, and turn and pray unto you in the land of their captivity, saying, We have sinned, we have done amiss, and have dealt 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 return to you with all their heart and with all their soul in the land of their captivity, where they have carried them captives, and pray toward their land, which you gave unto their fathers, and toward the city which you have chosen, and toward the house which I have built for your 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 hear you from the heavens, even from your dwelling place, their prayer and their supplications, and maintain their cause, and forgive your people which have sinned against you.
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
Now, my God, let, I plead to you, your eyes be open, and let your ears be attentive unto 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
Now therefore arise, O LORD God, into your resting place, you, and the ark of your strength: let your priests, O LORD God, be clothed with salvation, and let your saints rejoice in goodness.
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, turn not away the face of your anointed: remember the mercies of David your servant.
