歴代誌Ⅱ 1
1 ダビデの子ソロモン堅くその國にたてりその神ヱホバこれとともに在して之を甚だ大ならしめたまひき
And Solomon son of David strengthens himself over his kingdom, and his God YHWH [is] with him, and makes him exceedingly great.
2 茲にソロモン、イスラエルの一切の人々すなはち千人の長百人の長裁判人ならびにイスラエルの全地の諸の牧伯等宗家の長などに告る所あり
And Solomon says to all Israel, to heads of the thousands, and of the hundreds, and to the ones judging, and to every honorable one of all Israel, heads of the fathers,
3 而してソロモンおよび全會衆ともにギベオンなる崇邱に往りヱホバの僕モーセが荒野にて作りたる神の集會の幕屋かしこにあればなり
and they go—Solomon, and all the assembly with him—to the high place that [is] in Gibeon, for God’s Tent of Meeting has been there, that Moses, servant of YHWH, made in the wilderness,
4 されど神の契約の櫃はダビデすでにキリアテヤリムよりこれが爲に備へたる處に携へ上れりダビデ曩にヱルサレムにて之が爲に幕屋を張まうけたりき
but David had the Ark of God brought up from Kirjath-Jearim to the [place] David had prepared for it, for he stretched out a tent for it in Jerusalem;
5 またホルの子ウリの子なるベザレルが作りたる銅の壇彼處においてヱホバの幕屋の前にありソロモンおよび會衆これに就きて求む
and the altar of bronze that Bezaleel son of Uri, son of Hur made, he put before the Dwelling Place of YHWH; and Solomon and the assembly seek Him [there].
6 即ちソロモン彼處に上りゆき集會の幕屋の中にあるヱホバの前なる銅の壇に就き燔祭一千を其上に献げたり
And Solomon goes up there, on the altar of bronze, before YHWH, that [is] at the Tent of Meeting, and causes one thousand burnt-offerings to ascend on it.
7 その夜神ソロモンに顯れてこれに言たまひけるは我なんぢに何を與ふべきか求めよ
In that night God has appeared to Solomon and says to him, “Ask—what do I give to you?”
8 ソロモン神に申しけるは汝は我父ダビデに大なる恩惠をほどこし又我をして彼に代りて王とならしめたまへり
And Solomon says to God, “You have done great kindness with my father David, and have caused me to reign in his stead.
9 今ヱホバ神よ願くは我父ダビデに宣ひし事を堅うしたまへ其は汝地の塵のごとき衆多の民の上に我を王となしたまへばなり
Now, O YHWH God, Your word with my father David is steadfast, for You have caused me to reign over a people [as] numerous as the dust of the earth;
10 我が此民の前に出入することを得んために今我に智慧と智識とを與へたまへ斯のごとき大なる汝の民を誰か鞫きえんや
now, give wisdom and knowledge to me, and I go out before this people, and I come in, for who judges this—Your great people?”
11 神ソロモンに言たまひけるは此事なんぢの心にあり汝は富有をも財寶をも尊貴をも汝を惡む者の生命をも求めずまた壽長からんことをも求めず惟智慧と智識とを己のためにもとめて我が汝を王となしたる我民を鞫かんとすれば
And God says to Solomon, “Because that this has been with your heart, and you have not asked for riches, wealth, and honor, and the life of those hating you, and also have not asked for many days, and ask for wisdom and knowledge for yourself, so that you judge My people over which I have caused you to reign—
12 智慧と智識は已に汝に授かれり我また汝の前の王等の未だ得たること有ざる程の富有と財寳と尊貴とを汝に與へん汝の後の者もまた是のごときを得ざるべし
the wisdom and the knowledge is given to you, and riches and wealth and honor I [also] give to you, that there has not been so to the kings who [are] before you, and after you it is not so.”
13 斯てソロモンはギベオンの崇邱を去り集會の幕屋の前を去りてヱルサレムに歸りイスラエルを治めたり
And Solomon comes in to Jerusalem [from] the high place that [is] in Gibeon, from before the Tent of Meeting, and reigns over Israel,
14 ソロモン戰車と騎兵とを集めしに戰車一千四百輛騎兵一萬二千人ありきソロモンこれを戰車の邑々に置き又ヱルサレムにて王の所に置り
and Solomon gathers chariots and horsemen, and he has one thousand and four hundred chariots, and twelve thousand horsemen, and he places them in the cities of the chariots, and with the king in Jerusalem.
15 王銀と金とを石のごとくヱルサレムに多からしめまた香柏を平野の桑樹のごとく多からしめたり
And the king makes the silver and the gold in Jerusalem as stones, and the cedars he made as sycamores that [are] in the low country, for abundance.
16 ソロモンの有る馬は皆エジプトよりひききたれり王の商買一群一群となして之を取いだし群ごとに價金をはらへり
And the source of the horses that [are] for Solomon [is] from Egypt and from Keva; merchants of the king take [them] from Keva at a price,
17 エジプトより取いだして携へ上る戰車一輛は銀六百馬一匹は百五十なりき是のごとくヘテ人の諸の王等およびスリアの王等のためにもその手をもて取いだせり
and they come up, and bring out a chariot from Egypt for six hundred pieces of silver, and a horse for one hundred and fifty, and so for all the kings of the Hittites and the kings of Aram—they bring [them] out by their hand.
