< 歴代誌Ⅱ 8 >
1 ソロモン二十年を經てヱホバの家と己の家を建をはりけるが
At the end of twenty years, in which Solomon had built the LORD’s house and his own house,
2 ヒラム邑幾何をソロモンに歸しければソロモンまた之を建なほしイスラエルの子孫をしてその中に住しむ
Solomon built the cities which Huram had given to Solomon, and caused the children of Israel to dwell there.
Solomon went to Hamath Zobah, and prevailed against it.
4 彼また曠野のタデモルを建てハマテの諸の府庫邑を建つ
He built Tadmor in the wilderness, and all the storage cities, which he built in Hamath.
5 また上ベテホロンおよび下ベテホロンを建つ是は堅固の邑にして石垣あり門あり關木あり
Also he built Beth Horon the upper and Beth Horon the lower, fortified cities with walls, gates, and bars;
6 ソロモンまたバアラテとおのが有る府庫の邑々と戰車の諸の邑々と騎兵の邑々ならびにそのエルサレム、レバノンおよび己が治むるところの全地に建んと望みし者を盡く建つ
and Baalath, and all the storage cities that Solomon had, and all the cities for his chariots, the cities for his horsemen, and all that Solomon desired to build for his pleasure in Jerusalem, in Lebanon, and in all the land of his dominion.
7 凡てイスラエルの子孫にあらざるヘテ人アモリ人ペリジ人ヒビ人ヱブス人の遺れる者
As for all the people who were left of the Hittites, the Amorites, the Perizzites, the Hivites, and the Jebusites, who were not of Israel—
8 その地にありて彼らの後に遺れるその子孫即ちイスラエルの子孫の滅ぼし盡さざりし民はソロモンこれを使役して今日にいたる
of their children who were left after them in the land, whom the children of Israel didn’t consume—of them Solomon conscripted forced labour to this day.
9 然れどもイスラエルの子孫をばソロモン一人も奴隸となして其工事に使ふことをせざりき彼らは軍人となり軍旅の長となり戰車と騎兵の長となれり
But of the children of Israel, Solomon made no servants for his work, but they were men of war, chief of his captains, and rulers of his chariots and of his horsemen.
10 ソロモン王の有司の首は二百五十人ありて民を統ぶ
These were the chief officers of King Solomon, even two-hundred and fifty, who ruled over the people.
11 ソロモン、パロの女をダビデの邑より携へのぼりて曩にこれがために建おきたる家にいたる彼すなはち言り我妻はイスラエルの王ダビデの家に居べからずヱホバの契約の櫃のいたれる處は皆聖ければなりと
Solomon brought up Pharaoh’s daughter out of David’s city to the house that he had built for her; for he said, “My wife shall not dwell in the house of David king of Israel, because the places where the LORD’s ark has come are holy.”
12 茲にソロモン曩に廊の前に築きおきたるヱホバの壇の上にてヱホバに燔祭を献ぐることをせり
Then Solomon offered burnt offerings to the LORD on the LORD’s altar which he had built before the porch,
13 即ちモーセの命令にしたがひて毎日例のごとくに之を献げ安息日月朔および年に三次の節會すなはち酵いれぬパンの節と七週の節と結茅節とに之を献ぐ
even as the duty of every day required, offering according to the commandment of Moses on the Sabbaths, on the new moons, and on the set feasts, three times per year, during the feast of unleavened bread, during the feast of weeks, and during the feast of booths.
14 ソロモンその父ダビデの定めたる所にしたがひて祭司の班列を定めてその職に任じ又レビ人をその勤務に任じて日々例のごとく祭司の前にて頌讃をなし奉事をなさしめ又門を守る者をしてその班列にしたがひて諸門を守らしむ神の人ダビデの命ぜしところ是の如くなりければなり
He appointed, according to the ordinance of David his father, the divisions of the priests to their service, and the Levites to their offices, to praise and to minister before the priests, as the duty of every day required, the doorkeepers also by their divisions at every gate, for David the man of God had so commanded.
15 祭司とレビ人は諸の事につきまた府庫の事につきて王に命ぜられたる所に違ざりき
They didn’t depart from the commandment of the king to the priests and Levites concerning any matter or concerning the treasures.
16 ソロモンはヱホバの家の基を置る日までにその工事の準備をことごとく爲しおきて遂に之を成をへたればヱホバの家は全備せり
Now all the work of Solomon was accomplished from the day of the foundation of the LORD’s house until it was finished. So the LORD’s house was completed.
17 茲にソロモン、ヱドムの地の海邊にあるエジオンゲベルおよびエロテに往り
Then Solomon went to Ezion Geber and to Eloth, on the seashore in the land of Edom.
18 時にヒラムその僕等の手に託て船を彼に遣りまた海の事を知る僕等を遣りけるが彼等すなはちソロモンの僕とともにオフルに往て彼處より金四百五十タラントを取てソロモン王の許に携へ來れり
Huram sent him ships and servants who had knowledge of the sea by the hands of his servants; and they came with the servants of Solomon to Ophir, and brought from there four hundred and fifty talents of gold, and brought them to King Solomon.
