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。
Then Solomon began to build the LORD’s house at Jerusalem on Mount Moriah, where the LORD appeared to David his father, which he prepared in the place that David had appointed, on 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。
He began to build in the second day 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、
Now these are the foundations which Solomon laid for the building of God’s house: the length by cubits after the first measure was sixty cubits, and the width 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。
The porch that was in front, its length, across the width of the house, was twenty cubits, and the height one hundred 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。
He made the larger room with a ceiling of cypress wood, which he overlaid with fine gold, and ornamented it with 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。
He decorated the house with precious stones for beauty. The gold was gold from 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。
He also overlaid the house, the beams, the thresholds, 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。
He made the most holy place. Its length, according to the width of the house, was twenty cubits, and its width twenty cubits; and he overlaid 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。
The weight of the nails was fifty shekels of gold. He overlaid the upper rooms 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。
In the most holy place he made two cherubim by carving, 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、
The wings of the cherubim were twenty cubits long: the wing of the one was five cubits, reaching to the wall of the house; and the other wing was five cubits, reaching to 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。
The wing of the other cherub was five cubits, reaching to the wall of the house; and the other wing was five cubits, joining to 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 themselves out twenty cubits. 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。
He made the veil of blue, purple, crimson, and fine linen, and ornamented it with cherubim.
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。
Also he made before the house two pillars thirty-five cubits high, 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。
He made chains in the inner sanctuary, and put them on the tops of the pillars; and he made one 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。
He set up the pillars before the temple, one on the right hand and the other on the left; and called the name of that on the right hand Jachin, and the name of that on the left Boaz.
