< Revelation 14 >

1 And I looked, and, see, a Lamb stood on the mount Sion, and with him an hundred forty and four thousand, having his Father’s name written in their foreheads.
第四款 羔及び童貞者 我又見たるに、折しも羔シオン山に立ち給ひ、其御名及び父の御名を額に印されたる十四萬四千人之と共に在り。
2 And I heard a voice from heaven, as the voice of many waters, and as the voice of a great thunder: and I heard the voice of harpers harping with their harps:
我又天よりの聲を聞きしが、大水の聲の如く、又大いなる雷の聲の如くにして、又此我が聞きし聲は弾琴者の其琴を弾ずるが如し。
3 And they sung as it were a new song before the throne, and before the four beasts, and the elders: and no man could learn that song but the hundred and forty and four thousand, which were redeemed from the earth.
斯て彼等、玉座の前、四の動物と翁等との前に於て、新しき賛美歌の如きものを謳ひ居りしが、地上より贖はれたる彼十四萬四千人の外、誰も此賛美歌を唱うる事能はざりき。
4 These are they which were not defiled with women; for they are virgins. These are they which follow the Lamb wherever he goes. These were redeemed from among men, being the first fruits to God and to the Lamb.
彼等は女に触れず汚されざるもの、蓋童貞者たるなり。彼等は何處にもあれ羔の往き給ふ處に從ひ、人間の中より、初穂として、神と羔との為に贖はれたる者にして、
5 And in their mouth was found no guile: for they are without fault before the throne of God.
其口に僞ありし事なく、神の玉座の御前に汚なき者なり。
6 And I saw another angel fly in the middle of heaven, having the everlasting gospel to preach to them that dwell on the earth, and to every nation, and kindred, and tongue, and people, (aiōnios g166)
第五款 三の天使神の宣告を傳ふ 又見たるに、別に天の中央を飛べる一の天使あり、地上に住める人と、諸國、諸族、諸語、諸民とに福音を告げん為に、永遠の福音を携へ、 (aiōnios g166)
7 Saying with a loud voice, Fear God, and give glory to him; for the hour of his judgment is come: and worship him that made heaven, and earth, and the sea, and the fountains of waters.
聲高く言ひけるは、汝等主を畏れて之に尊榮を歸し奉れ、蓋其審判の時は至れり、天地と海と水の源とを造り給へるものを禮拝し奉れ、と。
8 And there followed another angel, saying, Babylon is fallen, is fallen, that great city, because she made all nations drink of the wine of the wrath of her fornication.
又別に一の天使、其後に從ひて言ひけるは、倒れたり倒れたり、私通の為に起せる怒の酒を萬民に飲ませし彼大いなるバビロネは、と。
9 And the third angel followed them, saying with a loud voice, If any man worship the beast and his image, and receive his mark in his forehead, or in his hand,
又第三の天使、彼等の後に從ひて聲高く言ひけるは、若獣と其像とを拝し、己が額若くは右の手に其印章を受けたる人あらば、
10 The same shall drink of the wine of the wrath of God, which is poured out without mixture into the cup of his indignation; and he shall be tormented with fire and brimstone in the presence of the holy angels, and in the presence of the Lamb:
彼も亦神の御怒の酒、即ち御怒の杯に物を雑へずして盛りたる酒を飲むべく、又聖なる天使等の前及び羔の御前に、火と硫黄とを以て苦しめらるべし、
11 And the smoke of their torment ascends up for ever and ever: and they have no rest day nor night, who worship the beast and his image, and whoever receives the mark of his name. (aiōn g165)
而して其刑罰の烟は世々に限なく立昇り、獣と其像とを拝せし人々と彼の名の印章を受けし者等とは、夜晝休息なかるべし。 (aiōn g165)
12 Here is the patience of the saints: here are they that keep the commandments of God, and the faith of Jesus.
神の掟とイエズスに於る信仰とを保てる聖人等の忍耐は茲に在り、と。
13 And I heard a voice from heaven saying to me, Write, Blessed are the dead which die in the Lord from now on: Yes, says the Spirit, that they may rest from their labors; and their works do follow them.
斯て天より聲ありて我に斯く言へるを聞けり、書記せ、福なる哉今より主に於て死する死人、[聖]霊曰はく、然り、彼等が其働を息まん為なり、其は其業之に從へばなり、と。
14 And I looked, and behold a white cloud, and on the cloud one sat like to the Son of man, having on his head a golden crown, and in his hand a sharp sickle.
第六款 人の子及び刈取 又見たるに、折しも白き雲ありて、其雲の上には人の子の如きもの、頭に金の冠を戴き、手に利き鎌を持ちて坐し居れり。
15 And another angel came out of the temple, crying with a loud voice to him that sat on the cloud, Thrust in your sickle, and reap: for the time is come for you to reap; for the harvest of the earth is ripe.
又別に一の天使、[聖]殿より出でて、雲の上に坐せるものに向ひ、聲高く呼はりけるは、地上の穀物は熟したるが故に、刈取るべき時は來れり、汝其鎌を入れて刈取れ、と。
16 And he that sat on the cloud thrust in his sickle on the earth; and the earth was reaped.
斯て雲の上に坐せるもの、其鎌を地に入れしかば、地の面は刈取られたり。
17 And another angel came out of the temple which is in heaven, he also having a sharp sickle.
又別に一の天使、天に在る[聖]殿より出でしが、彼も亦利き釜を持てり。
18 And another angel came out from the altar, which had power over fire; and cried with a loud cry to him that had the sharp sickle, saying, Thrust in your sharp sickle, and gather the clusters of the vine of the earth; for her grapes are fully ripe.
又別に火を司る権威を有せる一の天使、香台より出でて、利き鎌を持てるものに對ひ、聲高く呼はりて言ひけるは、地上の葡萄は熟したるが故に、汝利き鎌を入れて葡萄の房を刈取れ、と。
19 And the angel thrust in his sickle into the earth, and gathered the vine of the earth, and cast it into the great wine press of the wrath of God.
斯て天使其利き鎌を地に入れて地上の葡萄を刈取り、神の御怒の大いなる搾槽に入れ、
20 And the wine press was trodden without the city, and blood came out of the wine press, even to the horse bridles, by the space of a thousand and six hundred furlongs.
其搾槽は市外に於て踏籍けられしが、血搾槽より出でて、馬の轡に達くほど、七十五里の間に弘がれり。
