歴代誌Ⅱ 3
1 ソロモンはエルサレムのモリアの山に主の宮を建てることを始めた。そこは父ダビデに主が現れられた所、すなわちエブスびとオルナンの打ち場にダビデが備えた所である。
And Solomon began to build the house of Jehovah at Jerusalem on mount Moriah, where he appeared to David his father, in the place that David had prepared in the threshing-floor of Ornan the Jebusite.
2 ソロモンが宮を建て始めたのは、その治世の四年の二月であった。
And he began to build on the second of the second month, in the fourth year of his reign.
3 ソロモンの建てた神の宮の基の寸法は次のとおりである。すなわち昔の尺度によれば長さ六十キュビト、幅二十キュビト、
And this was Solomon's foundation for the construction of the house of God. The length by cubits after the first measure was sixty cubits, and the breadth twenty cubits.
4 宮の前の廊は宮の幅に従って長さ二十キュビト高さ百二十キュビトで、その内部は純金でおおった。
And the porch which was in front was twenty cubits in length, in front of the house broadways, and the height was a hundred and twenty; and he overlaid it within with pure gold.
5 またその拝殿はいとすぎの板で張り、精金をもってこれをおおい、その上にしゅろと鎖の形を施した。
And the greater house he boarded with cypress-wood, which he overlaid with fine gold, and set on it palm-trees and chains.
6 また宝石をはめ込んで宮を飾った。その金はパルワイムの金であった。
And he overlaid the house with precious stones for beauty; and the gold was gold of Parvaim.
7 彼はまた金をもってその宮、すなわち、梁、敷居、壁および戸をおおい、壁の上にケルビムを彫りつけた。
And he covered the house, the beams, the threshold, and its walls, and its doors with gold, and engraved cherubim on the walls.
8 彼はまた至聖所を造った。その長さは宮の長さにしたがって二十キュビト、幅も二十キュビトである。彼は精金六百タラントをもってこれをおおった。
And he made the house of the most holy place, the length of which was according to the breadth of the house, twenty cubits, and its breadth twenty cubits; and he covered it with fine gold, amounting to six hundred talents.
9 その釘の金の重さは五十シケルであった。彼はまた階上の室も金でおおった。
And the weight of the nails was fifty shekels of gold. And he covered the upper chambers with gold.
10 彼は至聖所に木を刻んだケルビムの像を二つ造り、これを金でおおった。
And in the house of the most holy place he made two cherubim of image work, and they overlaid them with gold.
11 ケルビムの翼の長さは合わせて二十キュビトあった。すなわち一つのケルブの一つの翼は五キュビトで、宮の壁に届き、ほかの翼も五キュビトで、他のケルブの翼に届き、
And the wings of the cherubim were twenty cubits long: one wing of five cubits touched the wall of the house; and the other wing of five cubits touched the wing of the other cherub.
12 他のケルブの一つの翼も五キュビトで、宮の壁に届き、ほかの翼も五キュビトで、先のケルブの翼に接していた。
And the wing of the other cherub of five cubits touched the wall of the house; and the other wing was five cubits joining the wing of the other cherub.
13 これらのケルビムの翼は広げると二十キュビトあった。かれらは共に足で立ち、その顔は拝殿に向かっていた。
The wings of these cherubim spread forth were twenty cubits; and they stood on their feet, and their faces were toward the house.
14 ソロモンはまた青糸、紫糸、緋糸および亜麻糸で垂幕を造り、その上にケルビムの縫い取りを施した。
And he made the veil of blue, and purple, and crimson, and byssus, and made cherubim upon it.
15 彼は宮の前に柱を二本造った。その高さは三十五キュビト、おのおのの柱の頂に五キュビトの柱頭を造った。
And before the house he made two pillars thirty-five cubits long; and the capital that was on the top of each of them was five cubits.
16 彼は首飾のような鎖を造って、柱の頂につけ、ざくろ百を造ってその鎖の上につけた。
And he made chains [as] in the oracle, and he put them on the top of the pillars; and he made a hundred pomegranates, and put them on the chains.
17 彼はこの柱を神殿の前に、一本を南の方に、一本を北の方に立て、南の方のをヤキンと名づけ、北の方のをボアズと名づけた。
And he set up the pillars in front of the temple, one on the right hand and the other on the left; and he called the name of that on the right Jachin, and the name of that on the left Boaz.
