出エジプト記 36
1 偖ベザレルとアホリアブおよび凡て心の頴敏き人即ちヱホバが智慧と了知をあたへて聖所の用に供ふるところの諸の工をなすことを知得せしめたまへる者等はヱホバの凡て命じたまひし如くに事をなすべかりし
“Bezalel and Oholiab, and all the other men to whom Yahweh has given ability and enabled them to understand how to do all the work to make the Sacred Tent, must make everything just as Yahweh has commanded.”
2 モーセすなはちベザレルとアホリアブおよび凡て心の頴敏き人すなはちその心にヱホバが智慧をさづけたまひし者凡そ來りてその工をなさんと心に望ところの者を召よせたり
So Moses/I summoned Bezalel and Oholiab and all the other skilled men to whom Yahweh had given special ability and who wanted to do some of the work.
3 彼等は聖所の用にそなふるところの工事をなさしむるためにイスラエルの子孫が携へきたりし諸の献納物をモーセの手より受とりしが民は尚また朝ごとに自意の献納物をモーセに持きたる
Moses/I gave them all the things that the people had brought as offerings to Yahweh for making the Sacred Tent. But the people continued bringing more things every morning.
4 是に於て聖所の諸の工をなすところの智き人等みな各々その爲ところの工をやめて來り
As a result, the skilled men who were doing various things to make the Sacred Tent came to Moses/me
5 モーセに告て言けるは民餘りに多く持きたればヱホバが爲せと命じたまひし工事をなすに用ふるに餘ありと
and said, “The people are bringing more than we need to do the work that Yahweh has commanded us!”
6 モーセすなはち命を傳へて營中に宣布しめて云く男女ともに今よりは聖所に獻納物をなすに及ばずと是をもて民は携へきたることを止たり
So Moses/I gave the skilled men this message that was proclaimed throughout the camp: “No one should bring anything more as an offering to make the Sacred Tent!” When the people [heard that], they did not bring anything more.
7 其はその有ところの物すでに一切の工をなすに足て且餘あればなり
What they had already brought was enough to do all the work. [In fact], it was more than was needed!
