Daniel 10
1 In the third year of Cyrus king of Persia a thing was revealed unto Daniel, whose name was called Belteshazzar; and the thing was true, but the time appointed was long: and he understood the thing, and had understanding of the vision.
ペルシャの王クロスの三年にベルテシヤザルといふダニエル一の事の黙旨を得たるがその事は眞實にしてその戦争は大なり彼その事を暁りその示現の義を暁れり
2 In those days I Daniel was mourning three full weeks.
常時我ダニエル三七日の間哀めり 即ち三七日の全く満るまでは旨き物を食ず肉と酒とを口にいれずまた身に膏油を抹ざりき
3 I ate no pleasant bread, neither came flesh nor wine in my mouth, neither did I anoint myself at all, till three whole weeks were fulfilled.
4 And in the four and twentieth day of the first month, as I was by the side of the great river, which is Hiddekel;
正月の二十四日に我ヒデケルといふ大河の邊に在り
5 Then I lifted up mine eyes, and looked, and behold a certain man clothed in linen, whose loins were girded with fine gold of Uphaz:
目を挙て望観しに一箇の人ありて布の衣を衣ウバズの金の帯を腰にしめをり
6 His body also was like the beryl, and his face as the appearance of lightning, and his eyes as lamps of fire, and his arms and his feet like in colour to polished brass, and the voice of his words like the voice of a multitude.
その體は黄金色の玉のごとくその面は電光の如くその目は火の熖のごとくその手とその足の色は磨ける銅のごとくその言ふ聲は群衆の聲の如し
7 And I Daniel alone saw the vision: for the men that were with me saw not the vision; but a great quaking fell upon them, so that they fled to hide themselves.
この示現は唯我ダニエル一人これを観たり我と偕なる人々はこの示現を見ざりしが何となくその身大に慄きて逃かくれたり
8 Therefore I was left alone, and saw this great vision, and there remained no strength in me: for my loveliness was turned in me into corruption, and I retained no strength.
故に我ひとり遺りたるがこの大なる示現を観るにおよびて力ぬけさり顔色まつたく變りて毫も力なかりき
9 Yet heard I the voice of his words: and when I heard the voice of his words, then was I in a deep sleep on my face, and my face toward the ground.
我その語ふ聲を聞けるがその語ふ聲を聞る時我は氣を喪へる状にて俯伏し面を土につけゐたりしに
10 And, behold, an hand touched me, which set me upon my knees and upon the palms of my hands.
一の手ありて我に捫りければ我戦ひながら跪づきて手をつきたるに
11 And he said unto me, O Daniel, a man greatly beloved, understand the words that I speak unto you, and stand upright: for unto you am I now sent. And when he had spoken this word unto me, I stood trembling.
彼われに言けるは愛せらるる人ダニエルよ我が汝に告る言を暁れよ汝まづ起あがれ我は今汝の許に遣されたるなりと彼がこの言を我に告る時に我は戦ひて立り
12 Then said he unto me, Fear not, Daniel: for from the first day that you did set your heart to understand, and to chasten yourself before your God, your words were heard, and I am come for your words.
彼すなはち我に言けるはダニエルよ懼るる勿れ汝が心をこめて悟らんとし汝の神の前に身をなやませるその初の日よりして汝の言はすでに聴れたれば我汝の言によりて來れり
13 But the prince of the kingdom of Persia withstood me one and twenty days: but, lo, Michael, one of the chief princes, came to help me; and I remained there with the kings of Persia.
然るにペルシャの國の君二十一日の間わが前に立塞がりけるが長たる君の一なるミカエル來りて我を肋けたれば我勝留りてペルシャの王等の傍にをる
14 Now I am come to make you understand what shall befall your people in the latter days: for yet the vision is for many days.
我は末の日に汝の民に臨まんとするところの事を汝に暁らせんとて米れりまた後の日に関はる所の異象ありと
15 And when he had spoken such words unto me, I set my face toward the ground, and I became dumb.
かれ是等の言を我に宣たる時に我は面を土につけて居り辭を措ところ無りしが
16 And, behold, one like the embodiment of the sons of men touched my lips: then I opened my mouth, and spoke, and said unto him that stood before me, O my lord, by the vision my sorrows are turned upon me, and I have retained no strength.
人の子のごとき者わが唇に捫りければ我すなはち口を開きわが前に立る者に陳て言り我主よこの示現によりて我は畏怖にたへず全く力を失へり
17 For how can the servant of this my lord talk with this my lord? for as for me, immediately there remained no strength in me, neither is there breath left in me.
此わが主の僕いかでか此わが主と語ふことを得んとその時は我まつたく力を失ひて氣息も止らんばかりなりしが
18 Then there came again and touched me one like the appearance of a man, and he strengthened me,
人の形のごとき者ふたたび我に捫り我に力をつけて
19 And said, O man greatly beloved, fear not: peace be unto you, be strong, yea, be strong. And when he had spoken unto me, I was strengthened, and said, Let my lord speak; for you have strengthened me.
言けるは愛せらるる人よ懼るる勿れ安んぜよ心強かれ心強かれと斯われに言ければ我力づきて曰り我主よ語りたまへ汝われに力をつけたまへりと
20 Then said he, Know you wherefore I come unto you? and now will I return to fight with the prince of Persia: and when I am gone forth, lo, the prince of Grecia shall come.
彼われに言けるは汝は我が何のために汝に臨めるかを知るや我今また歸りゆきてペルシャの君と戦はんとす我が出行ん後にギリシャの君きたらん
21 But I will show you that which is noted in the scripture of truth: and there is none that holds with me in these things, but Michael your prince.
但し我まづ眞実の書に記されたる所を汝に示すべし我を助けて彼らに敵る者は汝らの君ミカエルのみ
