1 Peter 5
1 The elders which are among you I exhort, who am also an elder, and a witness of the sufferings of Messiah, and also a partaker of the glory that shall be revealed:
第二項 牧師及び信徒に関する特別の勧告。 汝等の中の長老には、我も共に長老として、又キリストの苦難の證人として、将來顕るべき光榮に與る者として希ふ。
2 Feed the flock of YHWH which is among you, taking the oversight thereof, not by constraint, but willingly; not for filthy lucre, but of a ready mind;
汝等の中に在る所の神の羊の群を牧せよ、之を監督するに、強ひられてせずして喜びて神の御為にし、耻かしき利の為にせずして特志を以て行ひ、
3 Neither as being masters over those entrusted to you, but being ensamples to the flock.
托せられたる人々を壓制せずして、心より群の模範と成るべし。
4 And when the chief Shepherd shall appear, ye shall receive a crown of glory that fadeth not away.
然らば大牧者の顕れ給はん時、汝等凋まざる光榮の冠を得べし。
5 Likewise, ye younger, submit yourselves unto the elder. Yea, all of you be subject one to another, and be clothed with humility: for YHWH resisteth the proud, and giveth favour to the humble.
若き者よ、汝等も亦長老に服せよ、皆互に謙遜を帯びよ、神は傲慢なる者に逆らひて、謙遜なる者に恩寵を賜へばなり。
6 Humble yourselves therefore under the mighty hand of YHWH, that he may exalt you in due time:
然れば汝等、神の全能なる御手の下に謙れ、然せば時至りて彼汝等を高め給はん。
7 Casting all your care upon him; for he careth for you.
思ひ煩ふ所を悉く神に委ね奉れ、神は汝等の為に慮り給へばなり。
8 Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil, as a roaring lion, walketh about, seeking whom he may devour:
汝等節制して警戒せよ、其は汝等の仇なる惡魔は、吼ゆる獅子の如く、食盡すべきものを探しつつ行廻ればなり、
9 Whom resist stedfast in the faith, knowing that the same afflictions are accomplished in your brethren that are in the world.
汝等此世に在る兄弟等の同じく苦しめる事を知りて、信仰に心を堅めて之に抵抗せよ。
10 But the Elohim of all favour, who hath called us unto his eternal glory by Messiah Yahushua, after that ye have suffered a while, make you perfect, stablish, strengthen, settle you. (aiōnios g166)
一切の恩寵の神はキリスト、イエズスによりて其永遠の光榮に汝等を呼び給ひしものなれば、聊苦しみたる上は、御自ら完全にし堅うし強からしめ給はん、 (aiōnios g166)
12 By Silvanus, a faithful brother unto you, as I suppose, I have written briefly, exhorting, and testifying that this is the true favour of YHWH wherein ye stand.
結末。 忠信なる兄弟シルヴァノを以て我が汝等に書贈りし所は、我思ふに簡単なり。是此神の恩寵の眞なる事を勧告し、且保證するもののにして、汝等宜しく之に立つべし。
13 The assembly that is at Babylon, elected together with you, saluteth you; and so doth Marcus my son.
汝等と共に選まれてバビロンに在る教會、及び我子マルコは汝等に宜しくと言へり。
14 Greet ye one another with a kiss of charity. Peace be with you all that are in Messiah Yahushua. amein.
愛の接吻を以て互に宜しく傳へよ。願はくは、キリストに在る汝等一同に平安あらん事を、アメン。
