22 エリアシブ、ヨイアダ、ヨハナンおよびヤドアの日にレビ人の宗家の長等冊に録さる亦ペルシヤ王ダリヨスの治世に祭司等も然せらる
In the days of Eliashib, Joiada, Johanan, and Jaddua, during the reign of Darius the Persian, the heads of the families of the Levites and priests were recorded.
23 宗家の長たるレビ人はエリアシブの子ヨハナンの日まで凡て歴代志の書に記さる
As for the descendants of Levi, the family heads up to the days of Johanan son of Eliashib were recorded in the Book of the Chronicles.
24 レビ人の長はハシヤビヤ、セレビヤおよびカデミエルの子ヱシユアなりその兄弟等これと相對ひて居る即ち彼らは班列と班列とあひむかひ居り神の人ダビデの命令に本づきて讃美と感謝とをつとむ
The leaders of the Levites were Hashabiah, Sherebiah, and Jeshua son of Kadmiel, along with their associates, who stood across from them to give praise and thanksgiving as one section alternated with the other, as prescribed by David the man of God.
25 マツタニヤ、バクブキヤ、オバデヤ、メシユラム、タルモン、アツクブは門を守る者にして門の内の府庫を伺ひ守れり
Mattaniah, Bakbukiah, Obadiah, Meshullam, Talmon, and Akkub were gatekeepers who guarded the storerooms at the gates.
26 是等はヨザダクの子ヱシユアの子ヨアキムの日に在り総督ネヘミヤおよび學士たる祭司エズラの日に在りし者なり
They served in the days of Joiakim son of Jeshua, the son of Jozadak, and in the days of Nehemiah the governor and Ezra the priest and scribe.
27 ヱルサレムの石垣の落成せし節會に当りてレビ人をその一切の處より招きてヱルサレムに來らせ感附と歌と鐃鈸と瑟と琴とをもて歓喜を盡してその落成の節會を行はんとす
At the dedication of the wall of Jerusalem, the Levites were sought out from all their homes and brought to Jerusalem to celebrate the joyous dedication with thanksgiving and singing, accompanied by cymbals, harps, and lyres.
28 是において謳歌ふ徒輩ヱルサレムの周圍の窪地およびネトパ人の村々より集り來り
The singers were also assembled from the region around Jerusalem, from the villages of the Netophathites,
29 またベテギルガルおよびゲバとアズマウテとの野より集り來れりこの謳歌者等はヱルサレムの周圍に己の村々を建たりき
from Beth-gilgal, and from the fields of Geba and Azmaveth, for they had built villages for themselves around Jerusalem.
30 茲に祭司およびレビ人身を潔めまた民および諸の門と石垣とを潔めければ
After the priests and Levites had purified themselves, they purified the people, the gates, and the wall.
31 我すなはちユダの牧伯等をして石垣の上に上らしめ又二の大なる隊を作り設けて之に感謝の詞を唱へて並進ましむ即ちその一は糞の門を指て石垣の上を右に進めり
Then I brought the leaders of Judah up on the wall, and I appointed two great thanksgiving choirs. One was to proceed along the top of the wall to the right, toward the Dung Gate.
32 その後につきて進める者はホシヤヤおよびユダの牧伯の半
Hoshaiah and half the leaders of Judah followed,
33 ならびにアザリヤ、エズラ、メシユラム
along with Azariah, Ezra, Meshullam,
34 ユダ、ベニヤミン、シマヤ、ヱレミヤなりき
Judah, Benjamin, Shemaiah, Jeremiah,
35 又祭司の徒數人喇叭を吹て伴ふあり即ちヨナタンの子ゼカリヤ、ヨナタンはシマヤの子シマヤはマツタニヤの子マツタニヤはミカヤの子ミカヤはザツクルの子ザツクルはアサフの子なり
and some of the priests with trumpets, and also Zechariah son of Jonathan, the son of Shemaiah, the son of Mattaniah, the son of Micaiah, the son of Zaccur, the son of Asaph,
36 またゼカリヤの兄弟シマヤ、アザリエル、ミラライ、ギラライ、マアイ、ネタンエル、ユダ、ハナニ等ありて神の人ダビデの樂器を執り學士エズラこれに先だつ
and his associates—Shemaiah, Azarel, Milalai, Gilalai, Maai, Nethanel, Judah, and Hanani—with the musical instruments prescribed by David the man of God. Ezra the scribe led the procession.
37 而して彼ら泉の門を経ただちに進みて石垣の上口に於てダビデの城の段階より登りダビデの家の土を過て東の方水の門に至れり
At the Fountain Gate they climbed the steps of the City of David on the ascent to the wall and passed above the house of David to the Water Gate on the east.
38 また今一隊の感謝する者は彼らに対ひて進み我は民の半とともにその後に從がへり而して皆石垣の上を行き爐戌樓の上を過て石垣の廣き處にいたり
The second thanksgiving choir proceeded to the left, and I followed it with half the people along the top of the wall, past the Tower of the Ovens to the Broad Wall,
39 エフライムの門の上を通り舊門を過ぎ魚の門およびハナニエルの戌樓とハンメアの戌樓を過て羊の門に至り牢の門に立どまれり
over the Gate of Ephraim, the Jeshanah Gate, the Fish Gate, the Tower of Hananel, and the Tower of the Hundred, as far as the Sheep Gate. And they stopped at the Gate of the Guard.
40 かくて二隊の感謝する者神の室にいりて立り我もそこにたち牧伯等の半われと偕にありき
The two thanksgiving choirs then stood in the house of God, as did I, along with the half of the officials accompanying me,
41 また祭司エリアキム、マアセヤ、ミニヤミン、ミカヤ、エリヨエナイ、ゼカリヤ、ハナニヤ等喇叭を執て居り
as well as the priests with their trumpets—Eliakim, Maaseiah, Miniamin, Micaiah, Elioenai, Zechariah, and Hananiah—
42 マアセヤ、シマヤ、エレアザル、ウジ、ヨナハン、マルキヤ、エラム、エゼル之と偕にあり謳歌ふ者聲高くうたへりヱズラヒヤはその監督なりき
and also Maaseiah, Shemaiah, Eleazar, Uzzi, Jehohanan, Malchijah, Elam, and Ezer. Then the choirs sang out under the direction of Jezrahiah.
43 斯してその日みな大なる犠牲を献げて喜悦を盡せり其は神かれらをして大に喜こび樂ませたまひたればなり婦女小兒までも喜悦り是をもてヱルサレムの喜悦の聲とほくまで聞えわたりぬ
On that day they offered great sacrifices, rejoicing because God had given them great joy. The women and children also rejoiced, so that the joy of Jerusalem was heard from afar.
44 その日府庫のすべての室を掌どるべき人々を撰びて挙祭の品初物および什一など律法に定むるところの祭司とレビ人との分を邑々の田圃に准ひて取あつめてすべての室にいるることを掌どらしむ是は祭司およびレビ人の立て奉ふるをユダ人喜こびたればなり
And on that same day men were appointed over the rooms that housed the supplies, contributions, firstfruits, and tithes. The portions specified by the Law for the priests and Levites were gathered into these storerooms from the fields of the villages, because Judah rejoiced over the priests and Levites who were serving.
45 彼らは神の職守および潔齋の職守を勤む謳歌者および門を守る者も然り皆ダビデとその子ソロモンの命令に依る
They performed the service of their God and the service of purification, along with the singers and gatekeepers, as David and his son Solomon had prescribed.
46 在昔ダビデおよびアサフの日には謳歌者の長一人ありて神に讃美感謝をたてまつる事ありき
For long ago, in the days of David and Asaph, there were directors for the singers and for the songs of praise and thanksgiving to God.
47 またゼルバベルの日およびネヘミヤの日にはイスラエル人みな謳歌者と門を守る者に日々の分を與へまたレビ人に物を聖別て與ヘレビ人またこれを聖別てアロンの子孫に與ふ
So in the days of Zerubbabel and Nehemiah, all Israel contributed the daily portions for the singers and gatekeepers. They also set aside daily portions for the Levites, and the Levites set aside daily portions for the descendants of Aaron.
