Mark 5
1 Jesus and his disciples arrived on the [east] side of Lake [Galilee. They landed near] where the Gerasene [people lived].
こうして彼らは湖の向こう岸、ゲラサ人の地に着いた。
2 There was a man in that region whom evil spirits controlled.
イエスが舟から上がられると、すぐに、汚れた霊につかれた人が墓場から出て来て、イエスを迎えた。
3 [Because that man was violent and people were afraid of him], they had tied him up many times. [As he grew more violent], no one was able to tie him up any longer, not even with chains,
この人は墓場に住みついており、もはやだれも、鎖をもってしても、彼をつないでおくことができなかった。
4 because the chains would be broken by him {he would break the chains} whenever he was bound {they bound him} with them. The iron shackles would also be smashed by him {He would also smash the iron shackles} whenever they were fastened {they fastened them} [on his feet].
彼はたびたび足かせや鎖でつながれたが、鎖を引きちぎり、足かせも砕いてしまったからで、だれにも彼を押えるだけの力がなかったのである。
5 He lived in one of the caves [where they bury dead people]. During both night and day he would scream among the caves and in the hills. He would also cut himself with [sharp] stones. [That day] he came out of the caves.
それで彼は、夜昼となく、墓場や山で叫び続け、石で自分のからだを傷つけていた。
6 As Jesus [and his disciples got] out of the boat, that man saw Jesus from a distance. He immediately ran to Jesus, and then he knelt before him.
彼はイエスを遠くから見つけ、駆け寄って来てイエスを拝し、
7 Jesus said to the evil spirit, “You evil spirit, come out of this man!” [But the demon did not leave quickly]. It shouted very loudly, “Jesus, I [know that you are the] (Son of/man who is also) God, so (we have nothing in common./what do we have in common?) [IDM, RHQ] [So leave me alone] I ask you to promise, knowing God is listening, that you will not torture me [now]!”
大声で叫んで言った。「いと高き神の子、イエスさま。いったい私に何をしようというのですか。神の御名によってお願いします。どうか私を苦しめないでください。」
それは、イエスが、「汚れた霊よ。この人から出て行け。」と言われたからである。
9 [So, in order to expel the demon more easily], Jesus asked him, “What is your name?” He replied, “My name is Crowd/Mob because there are many of us [evil spirits in this man].”
それで、「おまえの名は何か。」とお尋ねになると、「私の名はレギオンです。私たちは大ぜいですから。」と言った。
10 Then the evil spirits fervently kept begging Jesus that he not send them out of the region.
そして、自分たちをこの地方から追い出さないでくださいと懇願した。
11 [At the same time], a large herd of pigs was (grazing/rooting for food) nearby on the hillside.
ところで、そこの山腹に、豚の大群が飼ってあった。
12 So the evil spirits pleaded with Jesus, “Allow us to go to the pigs in order that we might enter them!”
彼らはイエスに願って言った。「私たちを豚の中に送って、彼らに乗り移らせてください。」
13 He permitted them [to do that]. So the evil spirits left the man and entered the pigs. The herd, [which numbered] about 2,000, rushed down the cliff into the lake, and drowned in the lake.
イエスがそれを許されたので、汚れた霊どもは出て行って、豚に乗り移った。すると、二千匹ほどの豚の群れが、険しいがけを駆け降り、湖へなだれ落ちて、湖におぼれてしまった。
14 The men who had been tending the pigs ran and reported in the town and the countryside [what had happened. Many people] went to see what had happened.
豚を飼っていた者たちは逃げ出して、町や村々でこの事を告げ知らせた。人々は何事が起こったのかと見にやって来た。
15 They came to [the place where] Jesus [was]. Then they saw the man whom evil spirits had [previously] controlled. He was sitting there with clothes on and mentally sound. [As a result], they became afraid [because they thought that Jesus might destroy more of their property]. (OR, [they realized that Jesus must be very powerful].)
そして、イエスのところに来て、悪霊につかれていた人、すなわちレギオンを宿していた人が、着物を着て、正気に返ってすわっているのを見て、恐ろしくなった。
16 The people who had seen what had happened described what had happened to the man whom the evil spirits [previously] controlled. They also described [what had happened to] the pigs.
見ていた人たちが、悪霊につかれていた人に起こったことや、豚のことを、つぶさに彼らに話して聞かせた。
17 Then the people pleaded with Jesus to leave their region.
すると、彼らはイエスに、この地方から離れてくださるよう願った。
18 As Jesus got in the boat [in order to leave], the man whom the evil spirits [previously] controlled begged Jesus, “[Please let me] go with you!”
それでイエスが舟に乗ろうとされると、悪霊につかれていた人が、お供をしたいとイエスに願った。
19 But Jesus did not let him [go with him]. On the contrary, he said to him, “Go home to your family and tell them how much the Lord [God] has done for you, and tell them how [God] was kind to you.”
しかし、お許しにならないで、彼にこう言われた。「あなたの家、あなたの家族のところに帰り、主があなたに、どんなに大きなことをしてくださったか、どんなにあわれんでくださったかを、知らせなさい。」
20 So the man left [and traveled around] the Ten Towns [district]. He told people how much Jesus had done for him. All the people [who heard what the man said] were amazed.
そこで、彼は立ち去り、イエスが自分にどんなに大きなことをしてくださったかを、デカポリスの地方で言い広め始めた。人々はみな驚いた。
21 Jesus [and his disciples] went in a boat back around Lake [Galilee] to where they were before. When they arrived at the shore of the lake, a large crowd gathered around Jesus.
イエスが舟でまた向こう岸へ渡られると、大ぜいの人の群れがみもとに集まった。イエスは岸べにとどまっておられた。
22 One of the men who presided over a (synagogue/Jewish meeting place), whose name was Jairus, came there. When he saw Jesus, he prostrated himself at his feet.
すると、会堂管理者のひとりでヤイロという者が来て、イエスを見て、その足もとにひれ伏し、
23 Then he pleaded with Jesus earnestly, “My twelve-year old daughter is [sick and] nearly dead! [Please] come [to my house] and place your hands on her in order that she will be healed {to heal her}, so that she will not die!”
いっしょうけんめい願ってこう言った。「私の小さい娘が死にかけています。どうか、おいでくださって、娘の上に御手を置いてやってください。娘が直って、助かるようにしてください。」
24 So Jesus [and the disciples] went with him. A large crowd followed [Jesus] and [many] pushed close to him.
そこで、イエスは彼といっしょに出かけられたが、多くの群衆がイエスについて来て、イエスに押し迫った。
25 There was a woman [in the crowd] who had vaginal bleeding [EUP] [every day] for twelve years.
ところで、十二年の間長血をわずらっている女がいた。
26 She had suffered much while many doctors [treated her]. But although she had spent all [her money] to pay the doctors, she had not been helped {they had not helped her}. Instead, she had become worse [EUP].
この女は多くの医者からひどいめに会わされて、自分の持ち物をみな使い果たしてしまったが、何のかいもなく、かえって悪くなる一方であった。
27 After she heard that Jesus [healed people], she came [to where he was and pushed] in the crowd [close] behind Jesus.
彼女は、イエスのことを耳にして、群衆の中に紛れ込み、うしろから、イエスの着物にさわった。
28 She did that because she was thinking, “If I [touch him or] even if I touch his clothes, I will be healed {his power will heal me}.” So she touched Jesus’ clothes.
「お着物にさわることでもできれば、きっと直る。」と考えていたからである。
29 At once her bleeding stopped. At the same time, she sensed that she had been cured of {that [he] had cured} her illness.
すると、すぐに、血の源がかれて、ひどい痛みが直ったことを、からだに感じた。
30 Jesus [also] immediately sensed that his power had healed someone. So he turned around in the crowd and asked, “Who touched my clothes?”
イエスも、すぐに、自分のうちから力が外に出て行ったことに気づいて、群衆の中を振り向いて、「だれがわたしの着物にさわったのですか。」と言われた。
31 [One of] his disciples replied, “You can see that many people are crowding close to you! [Probably many people touched you]! So (why do you ask ‘Who touched me?’[/We are surprised] that you ask ‘Who touched me?’ [RHQ])”
そこで弟子たちはイエスに言った。「群衆があなたに押し迫っているのをご覧になっていて、それでも『だれがわたしにさわったのか。』とおっしゃるのですか。」
32 But Jesus kept looking around in order to see the one who had done it.
イエスは、それをした人を知ろうとして、見回しておられた。
33 The woman was very afraid and trembling. [She thought that Jesus might be angry because she had violated the law that women who had such a] sickness [should not touch other people. But] she knew [that Jesus had healed her]. So she prostrated herself before him. Then she told him truthfully [about what she had done].
女は恐れおののき、自分の身に起こった事を知り、イエスの前に出てひれ伏し、イエスに真実を余すところなく打ち明けた。
34 He said to her, “(Ma’am/Young lady), because you have believed [that I could heal you], I have healed you. You may go home with peace [in your heart/inner being], [because I promise that] you will not be sick [this way any more].”
そこで、イエスは彼女にこう言われた。「娘よ。あなたの信仰があなたを直したのです。安心して帰りなさい。病気にかからず、すこやかでいなさい。」
35 While Jesus was still speaking [to that woman], some people arrived who had come from Jairus’ house. They said [to Jairus], “Your daughter has [now] died. So (it is useless that you bother the teacher any longer [by urging him to go to your house]!/why do you bother the teacher any longer [by urging him to go to your house]?) [RHQ]”
イエスが、まだ話しておられるときに、会堂管理者の家から人がやって来て言った。「あなたのお嬢さんはなくなりました。なぜ、このうえ先生を煩わすことがありましょう。」
36 But when Jesus heard what these men said, he said to Jairus, “Do not think that the situation is hopeless! Just keep believing [that she will live]!”
イエスは、その話のことばをそばで聞いて、会堂管理者に言われた。「恐れないで、ただ信じていなさい。」
37 Then he allowed only [his three closest disciples], Peter, James, and John, to go with him [to Jairus’ house]. He did not allow any other people to go with him. After they arrived near the house, Jesus saw that the people there were in turmoil. They were weeping and wailing [DOU] loudly.
そして、ペテロとヤコブとヤコブの兄弟ヨハネのほかは、だれも自分といっしょに行くのをお許しにならなかった。
彼らはその会堂管理者の家に着いた。イエスは、人々が、取り乱し、大声で泣いたり、わめいたりしているのをご覧になり、
39 He entered the house and then he said to them, knowing that [he was going to cause her to live again], “(Do not make such a disturbance!/Why are you making such a disturbance?) [RHQ] Stop crying, for the child is not dead! On the contrary, she is [only] sleeping [HYP, EUP]!”
中にはいって、彼らにこう言われた。「なぜ取り乱して、泣くのですか。子どもは死んだのではない。眠っているのです。」
40 The people laughed at him, [because they knew that she was dead]. But he sent all the other people outside the house. Then he took the child’s father and mother and the [three disciples] who were with him. He went into [the room] where the child was [lying].
人々はイエスをあざ笑った。しかし、イエスはみんなを外に出し、ただその子どもの父と母、それにご自分の供の者たちだけを伴って、子どものいる所へはいって行かれた。
41 He took hold of the child’s hand and said to her [in her own language], “Talitha, Koum!” That means, “Little girl, get up!”
そして、その子どもの手を取って、「タリタ、クミ。」と言われた。（訳して言えば、「少女よ。あなたに言う。起きなさい。」という意味である。）
42 At once the girl got up and walked around. ([It was not surprising that she could walk], because she was twelve years old.) [When this happened, all who were present] were very astonished.
すると、少女はすぐさま起き上がり、歩き始めた。十二歳にもなっていたからである。彼らはたちまち非常な驚きに包まれた。
43 Jesus ordered them strictly, “Do not tell anyone about [what I have done]!” Afterwards he told them that something to eat should be brought to the girl {that they should bring the girl something to eat}.
イエスは、このことをだれにも知らせないようにと、きびしくお命じになり、さらに、少女に食事をさせるように言われた。
