< 1 Kings 8 >

1 Then doth Solomon assemble the elders of Israel, and all the heads of the tribes, princes of the fathers of the sons of Israel, unto king Solomon, to Jerusalem, to bring up the ark of the covenant of Jehovah from the city of David — it [is] Zion;
爰にソロモン、ヱホバの契約の櫃をダビデの城即ちシオンより舁上らんとてイスラエルの長老と諸の支派の首イスラエルの子孫の家の長等をエルサレムにてソロモン王の所に召集む
2 and all the men of Israel are assembled unto king Solomon, in the month of Ethanim, in the festival — [is] the seventh month.
イスラエルの人皆エタニムの月即ち七月の節筵に當てソロモン王の所に集まれり
3 And all the elders of Israel come in, and the priests lift up the ark,
イスラエルの長老皆至り祭司櫃を執りあげて
4 and bring up the ark of Jehovah, and the tent of meeting, and all the holy vessels that [are] in the tent, yea, the priests and the Levites bring them up.
ヱホバの櫃と集會の幕屋と幕屋にありし諸の聖き器を舁上れり即ち祭司とレビの人之を舁のぼれり
5 And king Solomon and all the company of Israel who are met unto him [are] with him before the ark, sacrificing sheep and oxen, that are not counted nor numbered for multitude.
ソロモン王および其許に集れるイスラエルの會衆皆彼と偕に櫃の前にありて羊と牛を献げたりしが其數多くして書すことも數ふることも能はざりき
6 And the priests bring in the ark of the covenant of Jehovah unto its place, unto the oracle of the house, unto the holy of holies, unto the place of the wings of the cherubs;
祭司ヱホバの契約の櫃を其處に舁いれたり即ち家の神殿なる至聖所の中のケルビムの翼の下に置めたり
7 for the cherubs are spreading forth two wings unto the place of the ark, and the cherubs cover over the ark, and over its staves from above;
ケルビムは翼を櫃の所に舒べ且ケルビム上より櫃と其棹を掩へり
8 and they lengthen the staves, and the heads of the staves are seen from the holy [place] on the front of the oracle, and are not seen without, and they are there unto this day.
杠長かりければ杠の末は神殿の前の聖所より見えたり然ども外には見えざりき其杠は今日まで彼處にあり
9 There is nothing in the ark, only the two tables of stone which Moses put there in Horeb, when Jehovah covenanted with the sons of Israel in their going out of the land of Egypt.
櫃の内には二の石牌の外何もあらざりき是はイスラエルの子孫のエジプトの地より出たる時ヱホバの彼等と契約を結たまへる時にモーセがホレブにて其處に置めたる者なり
10 And it cometh to pass, in the going out of the priests from the holy [place], that the cloud hath filled the house of Jehovah,
斯て祭司聖所より出けるに雲ヱホバの家に盈たれば
11 and the priests have not been able to stand to minister because of the cloud, for the honour of Jehovah hath filled the house of Jehovah.
祭司は雲のために立て供事ること能はざりき其はヱホバの榮光ヱホバの家に盈たればなり
12 Then said Solomon, 'Jehovah hath said to dwell in thick darkness;
是においてソロモンいひけるはヱホバは濃き雲の中に居んといひたまへり
13 I have surely built a house of habitation for Thee; a fixed place for Thine abiding to the ages.'
我誠に汝のために住むべき家永久に居べき所を建たりと
14 And the king turneth round his face, and blesseth the whole assembly of Israel; and all the assembly of Israel is standing.
王其面を轉てイスラエルの凡の會衆を祝せり時にイスラエルの會衆は皆立ゐたり
15 And he saith, 'Blessed [is] Jehovah, God of Israel, who spake by His mouth with David my father, and by His hand hath fulfilled [it], saying,
彼言けるはイスラエルの神ヱホバは譽べきかなヱホバは其口をもて吾父ダビデに言ひ其手をもて之を成し遂げたまへり
16 From the day that I brought out My people, even Israel, from Egypt, I have not fixed on a city out of all the tribes of Israel, to build a house for My name being there; and I fix on David to be over My people Israel.
即ち我は吾民イスラエルをエジプトより導き出せし日より我名を置べき家を建しめんためにイスラエルの諸の支派の中より何れの城邑をも選みしことなし但ダビデを選みてわが民イスラエルの上に立しめたりと言たまへり
17 'And it is with the heart of David my father to build a house for the name of Jehovah, God of Israel,
夫イスラエルの神ヱホバの名のために家を建ることはわが父ダビデの心にありき
18 and Jehovah saith unto David my father, Because that it hath been with thy heart to build a house for My name, thou hast done well that it hath been with thy heart;
しかるにヱホバわが父ダビデにいひたまひけるはわが名のために家を建ること汝の心にあり汝の心に此事あるは善し
19 only, thou dost not build the house, but thy son who is coming out from thy loins, he doth build the house for My name.
然ども汝は其家を建べからず汝の腰より出る汝の子其人吾名のために家を建べしと
20 'And Jehovah doth establish His word which He spake, and I am risen up instead of David my father, and sit on the throne of Israel, as Jehovah spake, and build the house for the name of Jehovah, God of Israel,
而してヱホバ其言たまひし言を行ひたまへり即ち我わが父ダビデに代りて立ちヱホバの言たまひし如くイスラエルの位に坐しイスラエルの神ヱホバの名のために家を建たり
21 and set there a place for the ark, where [is] the covenant of Jehovah which He made with our fathers in His bringing them out from the land of Egypt.'
我又其處にヱホバの契約を蔵めたる櫃のために一の所を設けたり即ち我儕の父祖をエジプトの地より導き出したまひし時に彼等に爲したまひし者なりと
22 And Solomon standeth before the altar of Jehovah, over-against all the assembly of Israel, and spreadeth his hands towards the heavens,
ソロモン、イスラエルの凡の會衆の前にてヱホバの壇のまへに立ち其手を天に舒て
23 and saith, 'Jehovah, God of Israel, there is not a God like Thee, in the heavens above, and on the earth beneath, keeping the covenant and the kindness for Thy servants, those walking before Thee with all their heart,
言けるはイスラエルの神ヱホバよ上の天にも下の地にも汝の如き神なし汝は契約を持ちたまひ心を全うして汝のまへに歩むところの汝の僕等に恩惠を施したまふ
24 who hast kept for Thy servant David my father that which Thou spakest to him; yea, Thou speakest with Thy mouth, and with Thy hand hast fulfilled [it], as [at] this day.
汝は汝の僕わが父ダビデに語たまへる所を持ちたまへり汝は口をもて語ひ手をもて成し遂たまへること今日のごとし
25 'And now, Jehovah, God of Israel, keep for Thy servant David my father that which Thou spakest to him, saying, There is not cut off to thee a man from before Me, sitting on the throne of Israel — only, if thy sons watch their way, to walk before Me as thou hast walked before Me.
イスラエルの神ヱホバよ然ば汝が僕わが父ダビデに語りて若し汝の子孫其道を愼みて汝がわが前に歩めるごとくわが前に歩まばイスラエルの位に坐する人わがまへにて汝に缺ること無るべしといひたまひし事をダビデのために持ちたまへ
26 'And now, O God of Israel, let it be established, I pray Thee, Thy word which Thou hast spoken to Thy servant, David my father.
然ばイスラエルの神よ爾が僕わが父ダビデに言たまへる爾の言に效驗あらしめたまへ
27 But, is it true? — God dwelleth on the earth! lo, the heavens, and the heavens of the heavens do not contain Thee, how much less this house which I have builded!
神果して地の上に住たまふや視よ天も諸の天の天も爾を容るに足ず况て我が建たる此家をや
28 'Then thou hast turned unto the prayer of Thy servant, and unto his supplication, O Jehovah my God, to hearken unto the cry and unto the prayer which Thy servant is praying before Thee to-day,
然どもわが神ヱホバよ僕の祈祷と懇願を顧みて其號呼と僕が今日爾のまへに祈る祈祷を聽たまへ
29 for Thine eyes being open towards this house night and day, towards the place of which Thou hast said, My Name is there; to hearken unto the prayer which Thy servant prayeth towards this place.
願くは爾の目を夜晝此家に即ち爾が我名は彼處に在べしといひたまへる處に向ひて開きたまへ願くは僕の此處に向ひて祈らん祈祷を聽たまへ
30 'Then Thou hast hearkened unto the supplication of Thy servant, and of Thy people Israel, which they pray towards this place; yea, Thou dost hearken in the place of Thy dwelling, in the heavens — and Thou hast hearkened, and hast forgiven,
願くは僕と爾の民イスラエルが此處に向ひて祈る時に爾其懇願を聽たまへ爾は爾の居處なる天において聽き聽て赦したまへ
31 that which a man sinneth against his neighbour, and he hath lifted up upon him an oath to cause him to swear, and the oath hath come in before Thine altar in this house,
若し人其隣人に對ひて犯せることありて其人誓をもて誓ふことを要られんに來りて此家において爾の壇のまへに誓ひなば
32 then Thou dost hear in the heavens, and hast done, and hast judged Thy servants, to declare wicked the wicked, to put his way on his head, and to declare righteous the righteous, to give him according to his righteousness.
爾天において聽て行ひ爾の僕等を鞫き惡き者を罪して其道を其首に歸し義しき者を義として其義に循ひて之に報いたまへ
33 'In Thy people Israel being smitten before an enemy, because they sin against Thee, and they have turned back unto Thee, and have confessed Thy name, and prayed, and made supplication unto Thee in this house,
若爾の民イスラエル爾に罪を犯したるがために敵の前に敗られんに爾に歸りて爾の名を崇め此家にて爾に祈り願ひなば
34 then thou dost hear in the heavens, and hast forgiven the sin of Thy people Israel, and brought them back unto the ground that Thou gavest to their fathers.
爾天において聽き爾の民イスラエルの罪を赦して彼等を爾が其父祖に與へし地に歸らしめたまへ
35 'In the heavens being restrained, and there is no rain, because they sin against Thee, and they have prayed towards this place, and confessed Thy name, and from their sin turn back, for Thou dost afflict them,
若彼等が爾に罪を犯したるが爲に天閉て雨无らんに彼等若此處にむかひて祈り爾の名を崇め爾が彼等を苦めたまふときに其罪を離れなば
36 then Thou dost hear in the heavens, and hast forgiven the sin of Thy servants, and of Thy people Israel, for Thou directest them the good way in which they go, and hast given rain on Thy land which Thou hast given to Thy people for inheritance.
爾天において聽き爾の僕等爾の民イスラエルの罪を赦したまへ爾彼等に其歩むべき善道を敎へたまふ時は爾が爾の民に與へて產業となさしめたまひし爾の地に雨を降したまへ
37 'Famine — when it is in the land; pestilence — when it is; blasting, mildew, locust; caterpillar — when it is; when its enemy hath distressed it in the land [in] its gates, any plague, any sickness, —
若國に饑饉あるか若くは疫病枯死朽腐噬亡ぼす蝗蟲あるか若くは其敵國にいりて彼等を其門に圍むか如何なる災害如何なる病疾あるも
38 any prayer, any supplication that [is] of any man of all Thy people Israel, who know each the plague of his own heart, and hath spread his hands towards this house,
若一人か或は爾の民イスラエル皆各己の心の災を知て此家に向ひて手を舒なば其人如何なる祈祷如何なる懇願を爲とも
39 then Thou dost hear in the heavens, the settled place of Thy dwelling, and hast forgiven, and hast done, and hast given to each according to all his ways, whose heart Thou knowest, (for Thou hast known — Thyself alone — the heart of all the sons of man),
爾の居處なる天に於て聽て赦し行ひ各の人に其心を知給ふ如く其道々にしたがひて報い給へ其は爾のみ凡の人の心を知たまへばなり
40 so that they fear Thee all the days that they are living on the face of the ground that Thou hast given to our fathers.
爾かく彼等をして爾が彼等の父祖に與へたまへる地に居る日に常に爾を畏れしめたまへ
41 'And also, unto the stranger who is not of Thy people Israel, and hath come from a land afar off for Thy name's sake —
且又爾の民イスラエルの者にあらずして爾の名のために遠き國より來る異邦人は
42 (for they hear of Thy great name, and of Thy strong hand, and of Thy stretched-out arm) — and he hath come in and prayed towards this house,
(其は彼等爾の大なる名と強き手と伸たる腕を聞およぶべければなり)若來りて此家にむかひて祈らば
43 Thou dost hear in the heavens, the settled place of Thy dwelling, and hast done according to all that the stranger calleth unto Thee for, in order that all the peoples of the earth may know Thy name, to fear Thee like Thy people Israel, and to know that Thy name hath been called on this house which I have builded.
爾の居處なる天に於て聽き凡て異邦人の爾に龥求むる如く爲たまへ爾かく地の諸の民をして爾の名をしらしめ爾の民イスラエルのごとく爾を畏れしめ又我が建たる此家は爾の名をもて稱呼るるといふことを知しめ給へ
44 'When Thy people doth go out to battle against its enemy, in the way that Thou dost send them, and they have prayed unto Jehovah the way of the city which thou hast fixed on, and of the house which I have builded for Thy name;
爾の民其敵と戰はんとて爾の遣はしたまふ所に出たる時彼等若爾が選みたまへる城とわが爾の名のために建たる家の方に向ひてヱホバに祈らば
45 then Thou hast heard in the heavens their prayer and their supplication, and hast maintained their cause.
爾天において彼等の祈祷と懇願を聽て彼等を助けたまへ
46 'When they sin against Thee (for there is not a man who sinneth not), and Thou hast been angry with them, and hast given them up before an enemy, and they have taken captive their captivity unto the land of the enemy far off or near;
人は罪を犯さざる者なければ彼等爾に罪を犯すことありて爾彼等を怒り彼等を其敵に付し敵かれらを虜として遠近を諭ず敵の地に引ゆかん時は
47 and they have turned [it] back unto their heart in the land whither they have been taken captive, and have turned back, and made supplication unto Thee, in the land of their captors, saying, We have sinned and done perversely — we have done wickedly;
若彼等虜れゆきし地において自ら顧みて悔い己を虜へゆきし者の地にて爾に願ひて我儕罪を犯し悖れる事を爲たり我儕惡を行ひたりと言ひ
48 yea, they have turned back unto Thee, with all their heart, and with all their soul, in the land of their enemies who have taken them captive, and have prayed unto Thee the way of their land, which Thou gavest to their fathers, the city which Thou hast chosen, and the house which I have builded for Thy name:
己を虜ゆきし敵の地にて一心一念に爾に歸り爾が其父祖に與へたまへる地爾が選みたまへる城とわが爾の名のために建たる家の方に向ひて爾に祈らば
49 'Then Thou hast heard in the heavens, the settled place of Thy dwelling, their prayer and their supplication, and hast maintained their cause,
爾の居處なる天において爾彼等の祈祷と懇願を聽てかれらを助け
50 and hast forgiven Thy people who have sinned against Thee, even all their transgressions which they have transgressed against Thee, and hast given them mercies before their captors, and they have had mercy [on] them —
爾の民の爾に對て犯したる事と爾に對て過てる其凡の罪過を赦し彼等を虜ゆける者の前にて彼等に憐を得させ其人々をして彼等を憐ましめたまへ
51 (for Thy people and Thy inheritance [are] they, whom Thou didst bring out of Egypt, out of the midst of the furnace of iron) —
其は彼等は爾がエジプトより即ち鐵の鑪の中よりいだしたまひし爾の民爾の產業なればなり
52 for Thine eyes being open unto the supplication of Thy servant, and unto the supplication of Thy people Israel, to hearken unto them in all they call unto Thee for;
願くは僕の祈祷と爾の民イスラエルの祈願に爾の目を開きて凡て其爾に龥求むる所を聽たまへ
53 for Thou hast separated them to Thyself for an inheritance, out of all the peoples of the earth, as Thou didst speak by the hand of Moses Thy servant, in Thy bringing out our fathers from Egypt, O Lord Jehovah.'
其は爾彼等を地の凡の民の中より別ちて爾の產業となしたまへばなり神ヱホバ爾が我儕の父祖をエジプトより導き出せし時モーセによりて言給ひし如し
54 And it cometh to pass, at Solomon's finishing to pray unto Jehovah all this prayer and supplication, he hath risen from before the altar of Jehovah, from bending on his knees, and his hands spread out to the heavens,
ソロモン此祈祷と祈願を悉くヱホバに祈り終りし時其天にむかひて手を舒べ膝を屈居たるを止てヱホバの壇のまへより起あがり
55 and he standeth and blesseth all the assembly of Israel [with] a loud voice, saying,
立て大なる聲にてイスラエルの凡の會衆を祝して言けるは
56 'Blessed [is] Jehovah who hath given rest to His people Israel, according to all that He hath spoken; there hath not fallen one word of all His good word, which He spake by the hand of Moses his servant.
ヱホバは譽べきかなヱホバは凡て其言たまひし如く其民イスラエルに太平を與へたまへり其僕モーセによりて言たまひし其善言は皆一も違はざりき
57 'Jehovah our God is with us as He hath been with our fathers; He doth not forsake us nor leave us;
願くは我儕の神ヱホバ我儕の父祖と偕に在せしごとく我儕とともに在せ我儕を離れたまふなかれ我儕を棄たまふなかれ
58 to incline our heart unto Himself, to walk in all His ways, and to keep His commands, and His statutes, and His judgments, which He commanded our fathers;
願くは我儕の心をおのれに傾けたまひて其凡の道に歩ましめ其我儕の父祖に命じたまひし誡命と法憲と律例を守らしめたまへ
59 and these my words with which I have made supplication before Jehovah, are near unto Jehovah our God by day and by night, to maintain the cause of His servant, and the cause of His people Israel, the matter of a day in its day;
願くはヱホバの前にわが願し是等の言日夜われらの神ヱホバに近くあれ而してヱホバ日々の事に僕を助け其民イスラエルを助けたまへ
60 for all the peoples of the earth knowing that Jehovah, He [is] God; there is none else;
斯して地の諸の民にヱホバの神なることと他に神なきことを知しめたまへ
61 and your heart hath been perfect with Jehovah our God, to walk in His statutes, and to keep His commands, as [at] this day.'
されば爾等我儕の神ヱホバとともにありて今日の如く爾らの心を完全しヱホバの法憲に歩み其誡命を守るべしと
62 And the king and all Israel with him are sacrificing a sacrifice before Jehovah;
斯て王および王と偕にありしイスラエル皆ヱホバのまへに犠牲を献たり
63 and Solomon sacrificeth the sacrifice of peace-offerings, which he hath sacrificed to Jehovah, oxen, twenty and two thousand, and sheep, a hundred and twenty thousand; and the king and all the sons of Israel dedicate the house of Jehovah.
ソロモン酬恩祭の犠牲を献げたり即ち之をヱホバに献ぐ其牛二萬二千羊十二萬なりき斯王とイスラエルの子孫皆ヱホバの家を開けり
64 On that day hath the king sanctified the middle of the court that [is] before the house of Jehovah, for he hath made there the burnt-offering, and the present, and the fat of the peace-offerings; for the altar of brass that [is] before Jehovah [is] too little to contain the burnt-offering, and the present, and the fat of the peace-offerings.
其日に王ヱホバの家の前なる庭の中を聖別め其處にて燔祭と禴祭と酬恩祭の脂とを献げたり是はヱホバの前なる銅の壇小くして燔祭と禴祭と酬恩祭の脂とを受るにたらざりしが故なり
65 And Solomon maketh, at that time, the festival — and all Israel with him, a great assembly from the entering in of Hamath unto the brook of Egypt — before Jehovah our God, seven days and seven days; fourteen days.
其時ソロモン七日に七日合て十四日我儕の神ヱホバのまへに節筵を爲りイスラエルの大なる會衆ハマテの入處よりエジプトの河にいたるまで悉く彼と偕にありき
66 On the eighth day he hath sent the people away, and they bless the king, and go to their tents, rejoicing and glad of heart for all the good that Jehovah hath done to David His servant, and to Israel His people.
第八日にソロモン民を歸せり民は王を祝しヱホバが其僕ダビデと其民イスラエルに施したまひし諸の恩惠のために喜び且心に樂みて其天幕に往り
