Revelation 21
1 I saw the new heaven and the new earth. For the first heaven and the first earth passed away, and the sea is no more.
第二項 聖會の決勝 我又新しき天と新しき地とを見たり、蓋曩の天と曩の地とは過去りて、海も既に在らざるなり。
2 And I, John, saw the Holy City, the New Jerusalem, descending out of heaven from God, prepared like a bride adorned for her husband.
我ヨハネ又、聖なる都會新しきエルザレムが、恰も其夫の為に飾れる新婦の如く備はりて、神より天降るを見たり。
3 And I heard a great voice from the throne, saying: “Behold the tabernacle of God with men. And he will dwell with them, and they will be his people. And God himself will be their God with them.
又大いなる聲の玉座より來るを聞けり、曰く、看よ神の幕屋は人々と共に在り、神彼等と共に住み給ひて、彼等其民と成り、神御自ら彼等と共に在して、其神と成り給はん。
4 And God will wipe away every tear from their eyes. And death shall be no more. And neither mourning, nor crying out, nor grief shall be anymore. For the first things have passed away.”
又神彼等の目より涙を悉く拭去り給ひ、此後は死ある事なく、悔も叫も苦も更に之あらざるべし、其は前の事既に去りたればなり、と。
5 And the One who was sitting upon the throne, said, “Behold, I make all things new.” And he said to me, “Write, for these words are entirely faithful and true.”
又玉座に坐し給ふもの曰ひけるは、看よ我萬事を新にす、と。又我に曰ひけるは、汝書記せ、其は此言は信ずべくして眞なればなり、と。
6 And he said to me: “It is done. I am the Alpha and the Omega, the Beginning and the End. To those who thirst, I will give freely from the fountain of the water of life.
又我に曰ひけるは、事既に成れり、我はアルファなり、オメガなり、始なり、終なり、我渇く人をして生命の水の源より價なく飲むことを得しめん。
7 Whoever prevails shall possess these things. And I will be his God, and he shall be my son.
勝利を得たる人は、是等のものを有して、我其神と成り、彼我子と成るべし。
9 And one of the seven Angels, those holding the bowls filled with the seven last afflictions, approached and spoke with me, saying: “Come, and I will show you the bride, the wife of the Lamb.”
又七の最後の禍の充てる器を持ちたる七の天使の一、來りて我に語り言ひけるは、來れ、我羔の配偶者たる新婦を汝に示さん、と。
10 And he took me up in spirit to a great and high mountain. And he showed me the Holy City Jerusalem, descending out of heaven from God,
斯て我氣を奪ひて、我を大いにして高き山に携へ、聖なる都エルザレムが神より天降るを示せり。
11 having the glory of God. And its light was like that of a precious stone, even like that of the jasper stone or like crystal.
即ち神の榮光を有して、其燈は水晶の如くに透明れる碧玉の如き寳石に似たり。
12 And it had a wall, great and high, having twelve gates. And at the gates were twelve Angels. And names were written upon them, which are the names of the twelve tribes of the sons of Israel.
又十二の門を備へたる、大いにして高き城壁あり、其門に十二の天使ありて記されたる名あり、即ちイスラエルの子等の十二族の名なり。
13 On the East were three gates, and on the North were three gates, and on the South were three gates, and on the West were three gates.
東に三の門、北に三の門、南に三の門、西に三の門あり。
14 And the wall of the City had twelve foundations. And upon them were the twelve names of the twelve Apostles of the Lamb.
又市街の城壁に十二の基礎ありて、羔の十二使徒の名之に記されたり。
15 And he who was speaking with me was holding a golden measuring reed, in order to measure the City, and its gates and wall.
斯て我と語れる者は、市街と其門と城壁とを測る為に、金の葦の測量竿を持ちたりしが、
16 And the city is laid out as a square, and so its length is as great as the width. And he measured the city with the golden reed for twelve thousand stadia, and its length and height and breadth were equal.
市街は四角に立ちて、長さ広さ相等しく、天使其金の葦を以て市街を測りしに、五百五十五里にして、長さ高さ広さ相等し。
17 And he measured its wall as one hundred and forty-four cubits, the measure of a man, which is of an Angel.
又城壁を測りしに、二十五丈あり、人の度にして亦天使の度なり。
18 And the structure of its wall was of jasper stone. Yet truly, the city itself was of pure gold, similar to pure glass.
其城壁は碧玉より成り、市街は清き玻璃に似たる純金にして、
19 And the foundations of the wall of the city were adorned with every kind of precious stone. The first foundation was of jasper, the second was of sapphire, the third was of chalcedony, the fourth was of emerald,
市街の城壁の基礎は有らゆる寳石を鏤め、第一の基礎は碧玉、第二は青玉、第三は玉髄、第四は緑玉、
20 the fifth was of sardonyx, the sixth was of sardius, the seventh was of chrysolite, the eighth was of beryl, the ninth was of topaz, the tenth was of chrysoprasus, the eleventh was of jacinth, the twelfth was of amethyst.
第五はサルドニクス、第六は赤條瑪瑙、第七は貴橄欖石、第八は緑柱玉、第九は黄玉、第十はクリゾプラズ、第十一はヒヤシント、第十二は紫水晶なり。
21 And the twelve gates are twelve pearls, one for each, so that each gate was made from a single pearl. And the main street of the city was of pure gold, similar to transparent glass.
十二の門は十二の眞珠にして、各の門は一の眞珠より成り、市街の衢は透明れる玻璃の如き純金なり。
22 And I saw no temple in it. For the Lord God Almighty is its temple, and the Lamb.
此市街には[聖]殿あるを見ず、其は全能の神にて在す主及び羔は、其[聖]殿にて在せばなり。
23 And the city has no need of sun or moon to shine in it. For the glory of God has illuminated it, and the Lamb is its lamp.
又此市街は日月に照さるるを要せず、其は神の榮光之を照し、羔其燈にて在せばなり。
24 And the nations shall walk by its light. And the kings of the earth shall bring their glory and honor into it.
諸國民彼が光によりて歩むべく、地上の國王等己が光榮と尊崇とを是に齎すべく、
25 And its gates shall not be closed throughout the day, for there shall be no night in that place.
其門は終日閉づる事なかるべし、其は此處には夜無なければなり。
26 And they shall bring the glory and honor of the nations into it.
是には諸國民光榮と尊貴とを齎すべく、
27 There shall not enter into it anything defiled, nor anything causing an abomination, nor anything false, but only those who have been written in the Book of Life of the Lamb.
潔からざるもの、憎むべき事を行ふもの、僞を為すものは之に入らず、羔の生命の名簿に記されたる人々のみ之に入るべし。
