ダニエル書 11
1 我はまたメデア人ダリヨスの元年にかれを助け彼に力をそへたる事ありしなり
“And so, from the first year of Darius the Mede, I stood firm, so that he might be reinforced and strengthened.
2 我いま眞実を汝に示さん視よ此後ペルシャに三人の王興らんその第四の者は富ること一切の者に勝りその富強の大なるを恃みて一切を激發してギリシヤの國を攻ん
And now I will announce to you the truth. Behold, up to a certain point, three kings will stand in Persia, and the fourth will be exceedingly enriched in power above them all. And when he has grown strong by his resources, he will stir up all against the kingdom of Greece.
3 また一箇の強き王おこり大なる威權を振ふて世を治めその意のままに事を爲ん
But there will rise up a strong king, and he will rule with great power, and he will do what he pleases.
4 但し彼の正に旺盛なる時にその國は破裂して天の四方に分れん其は彼の兒孫に歸せず又かれの振ひしほどの威權あらず即ち彼の國は抜とられて是等の外なる者等に歸せん
And when he has been firmly established, his kingdom will be shattered and will be divided towards the four winds of the heaven, but not to his posterity, nor according to his power with which he ruled. For his kingdom will be torn to pieces, even for the outsiders who have been expelled from these.
5 南の王は強からん然どその大臣の一人これに逾て強くなり威權を振はんその威權は大だる威朧なるべし
And the king of the South will be reinforced, yet one of his leaders will prevail over him, and he will rule with riches, for great is his domain.
6 年を經て後彼等相結ばん即ち南の王の女子北の王に適て和好を圖らん然どその腕には力なしまたその王およびその腕は立ことを得じこの女とこれを導ける者とこれを生せたる者とこれに力をつけたる者はみな時におよびて付されん
And after the end of years, they will form a federation, and the daughter of the king of the South will come to the king of the North to make friendship, but she will not obtain the strength of arms, neither will her offspring stand firm, and she will be handed over, along with those who brought her, her young men, and those who comforted her in these times.
7 期て後この女の根より出たる芽興りて之に代り北の王の軍勢にむかひて來りこれが城に打いりて之を攻て勝を得
And a transplant from the germination of her roots will stand up, and he will come with an army, and will enter into the province of the king of the North, and he will abuse them, and will hold it fast.
8 之が神々鑄像および金銀の貴き器具をエジプトに携へさらん彼は北の王の上に立て年を重ねん
And, in addition, he will carry away captive into Egypt their gods, and their graven images, and likewise their precious vessels of gold and silver. He will prevail against the king of the North.
9 彼南の王の國に打入ことあらん然ど自己の國に退くべし
And the king of the South will enter into the kingdom, and will return to his own land.
10 その子等また憤激して許多の大軍を聚め進みきたり溢れて往來しその城まで攻寄せん
But his sons will be challenged, and they will assemble a multitude of very many forces. And he will arrive rushing and overflowing. And he will be turned back, and he will be enraged, and he will join the battle in his redness.
11 是において南の王大に怒り出きたりて北の王と戦ふべし彼大軍を興してこれに當らん然れどもその軍兵はこれが手に付されん
And the king of the South, having being challenged, will go forth and will fight against the king of the North, and he will prepare an exceedingly great multitude, and a multitude will be given into his hand.
12 大軍すなはち興りて彼心に高ぶり數萬人を仆さん然れどもその勢力はこれがために増さじ
And he will seize a multitude, and his heart will be exalted, and he will cast down many thousands, but he will not prevail.
13 また北の王は退きて初よりも大なる軍兵を興し或時すなはち或年數を經て後かならず大兵を率ゐ莫大の輜重を備へて攻來らん
For the king of the North will change strategy and will prepare a multitude much greater than before, and at the end of times and years, he will rush forward with a great army and exceedingly great resources.
14 是時にあたりて衆多の者興りて南の王に敵せん又なんぢの民の中の奸惡人等みづから高ぶりて事を爲しつひに預言をして應ぜしめん即ち彼らは自ら仆るべし
And in those times, many will rise up against the king of the South. And likewise the sons of the deceivers among your people will extol themselves, so as to fulfill the vision, and they will collapse.
15 茲に北の王襲ひきたり塁を築きて堅城を攻おとさん南の王の腕はこれに當ることを得じ又その撰抜の民もこれに當る力なかるべし
And the king of the North will arrive and will transport siege works, and he will seize the most fortified cities. And the arms of the South will not withstand him, and his elect will rise up to resist, but the strength will not.
16 之に攻きたる者はその意に任せて事をなさんその前に立ことを得る者なかるべし彼は美しき地に到らんその地はこれがために荒さるべし
And when he arrives, he will do just as he pleases, and there will be none who stand against his face. And he will stand in the illustrious land, and it will be consumed by his hand.
17 彼その全國の力を盡して打入んとその面をこれに向べけれどまたこれと和好をなして婦人の女子を之に與へん然るにその婦人の女子は之がために身を滅すに至り何事をも成あたはす毫も彼のために益する所なかるべし
And he will set his face to strive to hold his entire kingdom, and he will make fair conditions with him. And he will give him a daughter among women, so as to overthrow it. But she will not stand, neither will she be for him.
18 彼またその面を島々にむけて之を多く取らん茲に一人の大将ありて彼が與へたる恥辱を雪ぎその恥辱をかれの身に與へかへさん
And he will turn his face towards the islands, and he will seize many. And he will cause the leader of his reproach to cease, and his reproach will be turned around for him.
19 かくて彼その面を自己の國の城々に向ん而して終に躓き仆れて亡ん
And he will turn his face to the empire of his own land, and he will strike, and will overthrow, but he will not succeed.
20 彼に代りて興る者は榮光の國に人を出して租税を征斂しめん但し彼は忿怒にも戦門にもよらずして數日の内に滅亡せん
And there will stand up in his place one who is most worthless and unworthy of kingly honor. And in a short time, he will be worn out, but not in fury, nor in battle.
21 また之にかはりて起る者は賤まるる者にして國の尊榮これに歸せざらん然れども彼不意に來り巧言をもて國を獲ん
And there will stand up in his place the despicable one, and he will not be assigned the honor of a king. And he will arrive in secret, and he will obtain the kingdom by deceitfulness.
22 洪水のごとき軍勢かれのために押流されて敗れん契約の君たる者も然らん
And the arms of the fighting will be assaulted before his face and will be shattered, and, in addition, the leader of the federation.
23 彼は之に契約をむすびて後詭詐を行ひ上りきたりて僅少の民をもて勢を得ん
And, after making friends, he will trick him, and he will go up and will overcome with a small people.
24 彼すなはち不意にきたりてその國の膏腴なる處に攻いりその父もその父の父も爲ざりしところの事を行はん彼はその奪ひたる物掠めたる物および財寳を衆人の中に散すべし彼は謀略をめぐらして堅固なる城々を攻取べし時の至るまで斯のごとくならん
And he will enter into rich and resourceful cities, and he will do what his fathers never did, nor his fathers’ fathers. He will scatter their spoils, and their prey, and their riches, and will form a plan against the most steadfast, and this until a time.
25 彼はその勢力を奮ひ心を勵まし大軍を率ゐて南の王に攻よせん南の王もまた自ら奮ひ甚だ大なる強き軍勢をもて迎へ戦はん然ど謀略をめぐらして攻るが故にこれに當ることを得ざるべし
And his strength and his heart will be enraged against the king of the South with a great army. And the king of the South will be provoked into going to war by having many allies and exceedingly good circumstances, and yet these will not stand, for they will form plans against him.
26 すなはち彼の珍膳に與り食ふ者彼を倒さんその軍兵溢れん打死する者衆かるべし
And those who eat bread with him will crush him, and his army will be suppressed, and very many will die, having been executed.
27 此二人の王は害をなさんと心にはかり同席に共に食して詭詐を言ん然どもその志ならざるべし定まれる時のいたる迄は其事終らじ
And the heart of two kings will be similar, to do harm, and they will speak lies at one table, but they will not succeed, because as yet the end is for another time.
28 彼は莫大の財寳をもちて自己の國に歸らん彼は聖約に敵する心を懐きて事をなし而してその國にかへらん
And he will return to his land with many resources. And his heart will be against the holy testament, and he will act, and he will return to his own land.
29 定まれる時にいたりて彼また進みて南に到らん然ど後の模様は先の模様のごとくならざらん
At the appointed time, he will return, and he will approach the South, but the latter time will not be like the former.
30 即ちキツテムの船かれに到るべければ彼力をおとして還り聖約にむかひて忿怒をもらして事をなさん而して彼歸りゆき聖約を棄る者と相謀らん
And the Greek warships and the Romans will come upon him, and he will be pierced, and will retreat, and will have scorn against the testament of the sanctuary, and he will act. And he will return and will consult their adversaries, who have forsaken the covenant of the sanctuary.
31 彼より腕おこりて聖所すなはち堅城を汚し常供の物を撤除かせかつ残暴可惡者を立ん
And arms will take his side, and they will pollute the sanctuary of the strength, and they will take away the continual sacrifice and will replace it with the abomination of desolation.
32 彼はまた契約に関て罪を獲る者等を巧言をもて引誘して背かせん然どその神を知る人々は力ありて事をなさん
And the impious within the testament will imitate deceitfully, but the people, knowing their God, will persevere and will act.
33 民の中の頴悟者ども衆多の人を教ふるあらん然ながら彼らは暫時の間刃にかかり火にやかれ擄はれ掠められ等して仆れん
And the teachers among the people will teach many, but they will be ruined by the sword, and by fire, and by captivity, and by assaults for many days.
34 その仆るる時にあたりて彼らは少しく扶助を獲ん又衆多の人詐りて彼らに合せん
And when they have fallen, they will be supported with a little help, but many will apply to them deceitfully.
35 また穎悟者等の中にも仆るる者あらん斯のごとく彼らの中に試むる事浄むる事潔よくする事おこなはれて終の時にいたらん即ち定まれる時まで然るべし
And some of the learned will be ruined, that they may be kindled and chosen and purified, up to the predetermined time, because there will be still another time.
36 此王その意のままに事をおこなひ萬の神に逾て自己を高くし自己を大にし神々の神たる者にむかひて大言を吐き等して忿怒の息む時までその志を得ん其はその定まれるところの事成ざるべからざればなり
And the king will act according to his will, and he will be lifted up and will be extolled against every god. And he will speak great things against the God of gods, and he will control, until the passion is completed. Once accomplished, the limit is reached with certainty.
37 彼はその先祖の神々を顧みず婦女の愉快を思はずまた何の神をも顧みざらん其は彼一切に逾て自己を大にすればなり
And he will give no thought to the God of his fathers, and he will be in the desire of women, and he will not attend to any gods, because he will rise up against all things.
38 彼は之の代に軍神を崇め金銀珠玉および寳物をもてその先祖等の識ざりし神を崇めん
But he will do homage to the god Maozim in his place, and, a god whom his fathers did not know, he will worship with gold, and silver, and precious stones, and costly things.
39 彼はこの異邦の神に由り要害の城々にむかひて事を爲ん凡て彼を尊ぶ者には彼加ふるに榮を以てし之をして衆多の人を治めしめ土地をこれに分ち與へて賞賜とせん
And he will act to reinforce Maozim with an alien god, of whom he has become aware, and he will increase their glory, and will give them power over many, and he will distribute land for free.
40 終の時にいたりて南の王彼と戦はん北の王は車と馬と衆多の船をもて大風のごとく之に攻寄せ國に打いりて潮のごとく溢れ渉らん
And, at the predetermined time, the king of the South will fight against him, and the king of the North will come against him like a tempest, with chariots, and with horsemen, and with a great fleet, and he will enter into the lands, and will crush and pass through.
And he will enter into the glorious land, and many will fall. But only these will be saved from his hand: Edom, and Moab, and the first part of the sons of Ammon.
42 彼はまた美しき國に進み入ん彼のために亡ぶる者多かるべし然どエドム、モアブ、
And he will cast his hand upon the lands, and the land of Egypt will not escape.
43 アンモン人の中の第一なる者などは彼の手を免かれん
And he will rule over the treasure chests of gold, and silver, and all the precious things of Egypt, and likewise he will pass through Libya and Ethiopia.
44 彼國々にその手を伸さんエジプトの地も免かれがたし
And rumors from the East and from the North will trouble him. And he will arrive with a great multitude to destroy and to execute many.
45 彼は遂にエジプトの金銀財寳を手に入れんリブア人とエテオピア人は彼の後に從はん 彼東と北より報知を得て周章ふためき許多の人を滅し絶んと大に忿りて出ゆかん 彼は海の間において美しき聖山に天幕の宮殿をしつらはん然ど彼つひにその終にいたらん之を助くる者なかるべし
And he will fasten his tabernacle, Apadno, between the seas, upon an illustrious and holy mountain, and he will come even to its summit, and no one will help him.”
