2 Chronicles 8

1 And it came to pass, at the end of twenty years, wherein Solomon had built the house of Yahweh, and his own house,

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

2 that, the cities which Huram had given to Solomon, Solomon built them, —and caused, the sons of Israel, to dwell there.

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

3 And Solomon went to Hamath-zobah, —and prevailed against it;

ソロモンまたハマテゾバに往て之に勝り

4 and he built Tadmor, in the wilderness, —and all the store cities, which he built in Hamath;

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

5 and he built Beth-horon, the upper, and Beth-horon, the nether, —fortified cities, with walls, and doors and bars;

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

6 and Baalath, and all the store cities which pertained to Solomon, and all the chariot cities, and the cities of the horsemen, —and every delight of Solomon which he delighted to build in Jerusalem, and in the Lebanon, and in all the land of his dominion.

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

7 As for all the people that were left, of the Hittites and the Amorites and the Perizzites and the Hivites and the Jebusites, who were not, of Israel; —

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

8 of their sons who were left after them in the land, whom the sons of Israel had not utterly destroyed, Solomon enrolled them as tributary—unto this day.

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

9 But, of the sons of Israel, were there none whom he delivered up as bondmen unto his work, —for, they, were men of war, and his captains and his heroes, and captains over his chariots, and his horsemen.

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

10 These, moreover, were the chiefs of his officers whom King Solomon had, two hundred and fifty, —who wielded dominion over the people.

ソロモン王の有司の首は二百五十人ありて民を統ぶ

11 And, the daughter of Pharaoh, Solomon brought up, out of the city of David, unto the house which he had built for her, —for he said, A wife of mine must not dwell in the house of David king of Israel, for holy are those places whereinto the ark of Yahweh hath come.

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

12 Then, Solomon offered up ascending-sacrifices, unto Yahweh, —upon the altar of Yahweh, which he had built before the porch:

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

13 even according to the duty of each a day upon [its own] day, offering up according to the commandment of Moses, for the sabbaths, and for the new moons, and for the appointed feasts, three times in the year, —in the festival of unleavened cakes and in the festival of weeks, and in the festival of booths;

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

14 and he caused to stand, according to the regulation of David his father, the courses of the priests over their service and of the Levites over their charges, to offer praise and to minister before the priests, for the duty of each day upon its own day, and the gate-keepers in their courses, at every several gate, —for, such, was the commandment of David the man of God;

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

15 neither departed they from the commandment of the king, concerning the priests and the Levites as to any duty, or as to the treasuries.

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

16 So all the work of Solomon was prepared, from the day of founding the house of Yahweh, even as far as the finishing thereof, —complete was the house of Yahweh.

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

17 Then, went Solomon to Ezion-geber, and unto Eloth on the seashore in the land of Edom.

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

18 And Huram sent him—by the hand of his servants—ships, and servants skilled in the sea, and they came, with the servants of Solomon, towards Ophir, and took from thence, four hundred and fifty talents of gold, —and brought unto King Solomon.

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
