What you [and your fellow apostles teach] (OR, [what] you [do]) [will be like a foundation on which I] will create congregations of people who [believe in] me.

我も亦汝に告ぐ、汝は磐なり、我此磐の上に我教會を建てん、斯て地獄の門是に勝たざるべし。 (Hadēs g86)
So, if you [are wanting to use] one of your hands or feet to sin, [stop using that hand or foot! Even if you have to] cut it off [to avoid sinning, do it] [MET]!

As Jesus was starting to travel [again with his disciples], a [young] man ran up to him. He knelt before Jesus and then he asked him, “Good teacher, what must I do to have eternal life/in order to live [with God] eternally?” (aiōnios g166)
イエズス途に出で給ひしに、一人馳來り、其前に跪きて、善き師よ、永遠の生命を得んには、我何を為すべきか、と問ひければ、 (aiōnios g166)
will receive in this life 100 times as much [as they left behind. That will include houses and people as dear as] brothers and sisters and mothers and children, and plots of ground. Furthermore, although people will persecute them [here on earth because they believe in me], in the future age [they] will ([have] eternal life/live [with God] eternally). (aiōn g165, aiōnios g166)
[But to illustrate how God would punish the nation of Israel, ] he said to the tree, “No one shall ever eat from you again [because you will no longer bear figs].” The disciples heard what he said. (aiōn g165)
イエズス是に言ひて、今より後何時までも汝の實を食ふ人あらざれ、と曰ひしを弟子等聞きたりき。 (aiōn g165)
He will be the King of [the] Jews, the descendants [MTY] of [your ancestor] Jacob, forever. He will rule as king forever!” (aiōn g165)
ヤコブの家を限なく治め、其治世は終なかるべし、と。 (aiōn g165)
He promised to Abraham and all our other ancestors who descended from him that he would act mercifully toward them forever.” (aiōn g165)
我等の先祖に曰ひし如く、アブラハムにも其子孫にも、世々に限なく及ぼし給はん、と。 (aiōn g165)
Long ago God caused his prophets to say that he would do that. (aiōn g165)
是古より聖なる預言者等の口に籍りて語り給ひし如く、 (aiōn g165)
[The demons] kept begging [Jesus] that he would not command them to go into the deep place [where God punishes demons]. (Abyssos g12)
然てイエズスの命じて底なき淵に往かしめ給はざらん事を請ひたりしが、 (Abyssos g12)
[I also have something to say to] you [people who live in] Capernaum [city]. (Do not [think that you will be honored] {[that God] will honor you} in heaven!/Do you [think that you will be honored] {[that God] will honor you} in heaven?) [RHQ] [That will not happen! On the contrary], [after you die, God] will send you down to the place where [sinful people] will be punished [forever]!” (Hadēs g86)
又カファルナウムよ、汝も地獄にまで沈めらるべし、天にまでも上げられたるものを。 (Hadēs g86)
[One day as Jesus was teaching people], a man was there who had studied carefully the laws that [God gave Moses]. He wanted to ask Jesus a difficult question. So he stood up and asked, “Teacher, what shall I do in order to live [with God] forever?” (aiōnios g166)
折しも一人の律法學士立上り、イエズスを試みんとして云ひけるは、師よ、我何を為してか永遠の生命を得べき。 (aiōnios g166)
But I will warn you about the one that you should truly be afraid of. You should be afraid of [God], because he not only has [the power to] cause people to die, he has the power to throw them into hell afterward! Yes, he is truly the one that you should be afraid of! (Geenna g1067)
爰に汝等の懼るべき者を示さん、即ち殺したる後地獄に投入るる権能ある者を懼れよ、然り、我汝等に告ぐ、之を懼れよ。 (Geenna g1067)
When his master [heard what the manager had done], he admired the dishonest manager for the clever thing he had done. [The truth] is that the ungodly people in this world act more wisely toward other people than godly people [MET] act. (aiōn g165)
然るに主人、此不正なる家令を誉めて、其手段を巧なりとせり。蓋此世の子等は互に光の子等よりも巧なればなり。 (aiōn g165)
[So] I tell you [(pl)] this: Use the money that you have [here] on earth to help others so that they will become your friends. Then when [you die and] you cannot [take] any money with you, [God and his angels] will welcome you into a home [in heaven] that will last forever. (aiōnios g166)
我も亦汝等に告ぐ、汝等不正の富を以て友人を作り、息絶えし後、汝等に永遠の住處に承入れしむべく為よ。 (aiōnios g166)

一人の重立ちたる者イエズスに問ひて、善き師よ、我何を為してか永遠の生命を得べき、と云ひしかば、 (aiōnios g166)
Jesus replied to them, “Men who live here in this world take wives, or are given wives [by their parents] {their [parents] choose wives [for them]}. (aiōn g165)
イエズス彼等に曰ひけるは、現世の子等は娶嫁すれども、 (aiōn g165)
But the men whom God considers worthy of [being in heaven after] they become alive again will not be married. (aiōn g165)
來世及び復活に堪へたりとせらるべき人々は、嫁がず娶らざらん、 (aiōn g165)
As a result, everyone who believes/trusts in me will have eternal life.” (aiōnios g166)
是総て之を信仰する人の、亡びずして永遠の生命を得ん為なり。 (aiōnios g166)
God loved us people [MTY] in the world so much that he gave his only Son [as a sacrifice for us], in order that everyone who believes in him would not be separated from God forever. Instead, they would have eternal life. (aiōnios g166)
蓋神の此世を愛し給へる事は、御獨子を賜ふ程にして、是総て之を信仰する人の亡びずして永遠の生命を得ん為なり。 (aiōnios g166)
Those who trust in [God’s] Son have eternal life. But those who reject God’s Son will never have [eternal] life. Instead, God is angry with them [and he will surely punish them]. (aiōnios g166)
御子を信仰する人は永遠の生命を有す。然れど御子を信ぜざる人は生命を見ざるべく、神の怒却て彼が上に止る、と。 (aiōnios g166)
[If you help them to accept my message], I will reward you [MET], [as an owner of a field] pays those who harvest the crops. Because of your work, people will gain eternal life.’ [I have been telling people God’s message. That is like] [MET] a man who plants seeds. [You will help people to accept my message. That will be like] [MET] harvesting crops. [When that happens], both you and I will rejoice. (aiōnios g166)
穫る人は報を受けて永遠の生命に至るべき果を収むれば、捲く人も穫る人も共に喜ぶべし。 (aiōnios g166)
Listen to this carefully: Those who hear my message and believe that [God] is the one who sent me have eternal life. [God will] not (condemn them/say that he will punish them). They are no longer separated from God. Instead, they have [eternal] life. (aiōnios g166)
誠に實に汝等に告ぐ、我言を聴きて我を遣はし給ひし者を信ずる人は、永遠の生命を有し、且審判に至らずして、死より生に移りたる者なり。 (aiōnios g166)

汝等は聖書に永遠の生命を有すと思ひて之を探る、彼等も亦我を證明するものなり、 (aiōnios g166)
Stop desiring food that will soon spoil! Instead, desire to get [spiritual] food that will last forever! Yearn for eternal life! That is what I, the one who came from heaven, will give you. God [my] Father has shown that he approves of me [enabling me to do that].” (aiōnios g166)
働く事は朽つる糧の為にせずして、永遠の生命に至るまで存する糧、即ち人の子が汝等に與へんとする糧の為にせよ、其は父なる神彼を證印し給ひたればなり、と。 (aiōnios g166)
[Long ago in the desolate area when those who were bitten by snakes looked at the bronze replica of a snake, they were healed] [MET]. What my Father wants is that [similarly] everyone who looks at [what] I [have done] and believes in me will have eternal life. I will cause them to become alive again (on the last day/on the day [when I judge everyone]) [MTY].” (aiōnios g166)

Simon Peter replied to him, “Lord, [we] will not [leave you], [because] (there is no other person [like you] to whom we can go!/what other person is there like [you] to whom we can go?) [RHQ] You have the message about eternal life! (aiōnios g166)
シモン、ペトロ答へけるは、主よ、我等誰にか之かん、汝こそ永遠の生命の言を有し給ふなれ。 (aiōnios g166)
A slave is not a permanent member of a family. But a son is a member of a family forever.

(aiōn g165)

Then the Jewish [leaders] [SYN], [thinking that he was talking about ordinary death and not about spiritual death], said to him, “Now we are sure that a demon [controls] you! Abraham and the prophets died [long ago]! But you say that anyone who obeys what you teach will never die! (aiōn g165)
是に於てユデア人云ひけるは、我等汝が惡魔に憑かれたるを今こそは暁りたれ、アブラハムも死し、預言者等も死せり、然るを汝、人若我言を守らば永遠に死を味はじと云ふ。 (aiōn g165)

[Someone in] the crowd answered him, “We understand from the Scriptures that the Messiah will live forever. So why do you say that the one who came from heaven, [who is the Messiah], will be lifted up {that [men] will lift up the one who came from heaven, [who is the Messiah], } on a cross? What kind of man who came from heaven are you [talking about]? (OR, That’s not the [kind] of Messiah [we are expecting]!)” (aiōn g165)
群衆之に答へけるは、キリストは永遠に存すとこそ、我等は律法より聞けるものを、汝何ぞ人の子上げられるべしと云ふや、人の子とは是誰なるぞ、と。 (aiōn g165)
I know that [paying attention to] what he has instructed us [leads to] eternal life. So whatever I say is exactly (OR, only) what [my] Father has told me to say.” (aiōnios g166)
我は其命令が永遠の生命たる事を知る、然れば我が語るは、父の我に曰ひし儘に之を語るなり、と。 (aiōnios g166)
Peter said, “I will never, ever, [allow you to] wash my feet!” Jesus replied to him, “If I do not wash you, you cannot continue (to be my [disciple/to belong to] me).” (aiōn g165)
ペトロ云ひけるは、我足を洗ひ給ふ事決してあるべからず、と。イエズス我若汝を洗はずば、我と一致する所あらじ、と答へ給ひしかば、 (aiōn g165)
Then I myself will request [my] Father, and he will send you someone else who will (encourage/be like a legal counsel for) you. (aiōn g165)
而して我は父に請ひ、父は他の弁護者を汝等に賜ひて、永遠に汝等と共に止らしめ給はん。 (aiōn g165)
You gave me authority over all people, in order that I might enable all those whom you chose [to come] to me to live eternally. (aiōnios g166)
其は父より賜はりし人々に永遠の生命を與へしめんとて、之に萬民の上に権能を賜ひたればなり。 (aiōnios g166)
[The way for people] to live eternally is for them to know that you are the only true God, and to know that [I], Jesus, am the Messiah, the one you have sent. (aiōnios g166)
抑永遠の生命は、唯一の眞の神にて在す汝と、其遣はし給へるイエズス、キリストとを知るに在り。 (aiōnios g166)
You will not allow my spirit to remain in the place where the dead are. You will not [even] let my body decay, [because] I am devoted to you and always obey [you]. (Hadēs g86)
其は汝我魂を冥府に棄置き給はず、汝の聖なる者に腐敗を見せ給ふ事なかるべければなり、 (Hadēs g86)
David knew beforehand [what God would do], so he [was able to] say that God would cause the Messiah to live again [after he died]. He said that God would not let the Messiah remain in the place of the dead, nor let his body decay.” (Hadēs g86)
先見してキリストの復活を示し、其冥府に棄置かれざりし事と、其肉體の腐敗を見ざりし事とを語りたるなり。 (Hadēs g86)
Jesus must stay in heaven until the time when God will cause all that he has created to become new. Long ago God promised [to do that, and] he chose holy prophets to tell [that to people]. (aiōn g165)
天は先之を受けざるべからず、是世の始より、神が其聖なる預言者等の口を以て告げ給ひし、萬物の回復の時代に至る迄の間なり。 (aiōn g165)
Then, speaking very boldly, Paul and Barnabas said [to those Jewish leaders], “[We two] had to speak the message from God [about Jesus] to you [Jews] first [before we proclaim it to non-Jews, because God commanded us to do that. But] you are rejecting God’s message. [By doing that], you have shown that you are not worthy (to have eternal life/to live eternally [with God]). [Therefore], we are leaving [you, and now we] will go to the non-Jewish people [to tell them the message from God]. (aiōnios g166)
パウロバルナバ毅然として云ひけるは、神の御言は先汝等に語るべかりき。然るに汝等之を退けて、自ら永遠の生命を得るに足らずとせるを以て、看よ我等転じて異邦人に向はんとするなり。 (aiōnios g166)
While the non-Jewish people were listening [to those words], they began to rejoice, and they repeatedly said that the message about the Lord [Jesus] was wonderful. And all of the non-Jewish people whom [God] had chosen (to have eternal [life/to live eternally with God]) believed [the message about the Lord Jesus]. (aiōnios g166)
異邦人之を聞きて喜び、又主の御言を崇め居りしが、永遠の生命に預定せられし人々悉く之を信仰せり。 (aiōnios g166)
[People] cannot see what God is like. But ever since he created the world, by means of what he created he has clearly revealed what he is like. He has made clear to everyone that he has always been able to do very powerful things. [Therefore, we should recognize that] God is powerful, [completely different from all that he created]. So no one has a basis for saying, [“We never knew about God].” (aïdios g126)
即ち其見得べからざる所、其永遠の能力も神性も、世界創造以來造られたる物によりて覚られ、明かに見ゆるが故に、人々弁解する事を得ず。 (aïdios g126)
Also, they [chose to worship] false [gods] instead (of admitting/of choosing to believe) what is true [about] God. They worshipped and served things [that God] created instead of [worshipping and serving God himself], the one who created [everything. They did this even though] he [deserves that those he created] would forever praise him. Amen!/May it be so! (aiōn g165)
神の眞實を虚僞に易へ、造物主を措きて被造物を拝み、之に事ふるに至りたればなり。造物主こそは世々に祝せられ給ふなれ、アメン。 (aiōn g165)
[Specifically], some people, by continuing to doing good things, strive to be highly honored [by God] [DOU] and to receive a life that will not end. [God will reward them by enabling them] to live forever. (aiōnios g166)
即ち忍耐を以て善行を力め、光榮と尊貴と不朽とを求むる人々には永遠の生命を以て報い給ふべしと雖も、 (aiōnios g166)
He did that in order that just like people everywhere inevitably sin, [which results in their] dying [MET, PRS], people everywhere might inevitably experience God’s acting kindly towards them in a way they do not deserve [MET, PRS] by [erasing the record of their sins]. [The result is that people can] live eternally because of what Jesus Christ our Lord [did for them]. (aiōnios g166)
是罪が死を以て王となりし如く、恩寵も亦我主イエズス、キリストに由りて義を以て王となり、永遠の生命に至らしめん為なり。 (aiōnios g166)
But you have been freed {[God] has freed you} from [letting the desire to] sin control you. You have become [as though you are] [MET] the slaves of God. So now the result is that God has caused you to completely belong to him and, as a result, you will live eternally. (aiōnios g166)
今は既に罪より救はれて神の僕と成り、其得る所の好果は聖と成る事にして、其終は永遠の生命なり。 (aiōnios g166)
[What people receive for] sinning [is that they are] eternally separated from God. That is [like] wages that [people receive] [MET]. But what God gives us is a gift. What he gives us is that we live eternally because of [our relationship with] (OR, because [we are united to]) Christ Jesus our Lord. (aiōnios g166)
蓋罪の報酬は死なるに、神の賜は我主イエズス、キリストに由れる永遠の生命なり。 (aiōnios g166)
It was our ancestors, [Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, whom God chose to found our nation]. And, [most importantly], it was from us Israelites that the Messiah received his human nature. [Nevertheless, most of my fellow Israelites have rejected Christ], who is the one who controls all things! He is God, the one who is worthy that we praise him forever! This is true! (OR, Amen!) (aiōn g165)
祖先等は彼等のもの、キリストも肉身上よりすれば彼等より出で給ひしなり。即ち萬物の上に世々祝せられ給ふ神にて在す、アメン。 (aiōn g165)
“Or [you should not think inwardly], ‘(Someone will have to go down and enter the place where [the spirits] of dead persons are!/Who will go down and enter the place where [the spirits] of dead persons are?)’ [RHQ]” That is to say, someone will have to [go down and] bring Christ up [from there to bring the message of salvation to us. You should not say that because Christ has already come down to save us, and has already become alive after he died]! (Abyssos g12)
「或は誰か陰府に降らんと」、是キリストを死より呼起す為ならん。 (Abyssos g12)
God has declared and proved that all people, [both Jews and non-Jews] [MET], disobey ([him/his laws]). He has declared that because he wants to act mercifully towards us all. (eleēsē g1653)
是衆人を憫み給はん為に、神が之を不從順に籠め給へるなり。 (eleēsē g1653)
God [is the one who created] all things. He is also the one who [sustains all things]. The reason that he created them was that [everything he created might praise] him. May [all people] honor him forever! (May it be so!/Amen!) (aiōn g165)
蓋萬事は彼に倚りて彼を以て彼の為に在り、光榮世々彼に歸す、アメン。 (aiōn g165)
Do not let anything non-Christian determine how you should act. Instead, let God change your [way of life] by making your way of thinking new, in order that you may know what he wants you to do. That is, you will know what is good, and you will know what pleases [God], and you will know how to be all that he wants you to be. (aiōn g165)
又此世に倣ひ從ふ事なく、却て神の御旨、即ち善と御意に適ふ事と完全との如何なるものなるかを暁らん為、精神を一新して自ら改革せよ。 (aiōn g165)
As [I] proclaim [the good message about] Jesus Christ, [I tell about God], the one who is able to strengthen you [spiritually]. I also proclaim the [truth] that was not revealed {which [God] did not reveal} in all previous ages/times (aiōnios g166)
尚長き世の間黙せられしに、今や預言者等の書に應じて、永遠の神の命に由り、信仰に服せしめんとて、萬民に顕れたる奥義の示に随ひ、 (aiōnios g166)
but which has now been {which [he] has now} revealed. [I, along with others, have proclaimed] what the prophets wrote [about Christ]. We are doing what the eternal God commanded [us(exc)/me to do]. We want [people in] all ethnic groups to know [Christ] so that they can believe [in him] and obey [him]. (aiōnios g166)
(parallel missing)
[I desire that by] Jesus Christ [enabling us, we] will forever praise the one who alone is God, who alone is [truly] wise. (May it be so!/Amen!) (aiōn g165)
即ち唯一の智者に在せる神に、イエズス、キリストを以て世々尊貴と光榮とあれかし、アメン。 (aiōn g165)
So, do you know [what God thinks] about what [RHQ] people who [IRO] consider themselves to be wise and scholars and philosophers say? [He does not pay attention to what they say, because] [RHQ] he has shown clearly that what unbelievers [think is] [IRO] wise is [not wise at all], but is really foolish. (aiōn g165)
此世の智者何處にか在る、律法學者何處にか在る、論者何處にか在る。神は此世の智を愚ならしめ給ひしに非ずや。 (aiōn g165)
I do teach a message that people who are [spiritually] mature [consider to] be wise. But I do not teach a message that unbelievers [consider to be] wise. I also do not teach a message that unbelieving rulers in the world consider to be wise. [What they think about it does not matter], because [some day] (they will lose their power/not be ruling any more). (aiōn g165)
然れども完全なる人々の中に於ては、我等智恵の事を語る。但し此世の智恵に非ず、此世に於る亡ぶべき君主等の智恵に非ず、 (aiōn g165)
Instead, I teach about what God planned wisely [long ago]. It is something that people did not know about previously because [God] did not reveal it previously. But God determined before he created the world that he would greatly benefit us by his wise plan. (aiōn g165)
語る所は神の不可思議なる智恵にして、即ち（永く）隠れたりしもの、神が代々に先ちて我等の光榮として豫定し給ひしものなり。 (aiōn g165)
None of those who rule this world knew that wise plan. If they had known it, they would not have nailed our wonderful Lord to the cross. (aiōn g165)
此世の君主等は一人も之を知らざりき。蓋知りたりしならば、彼等は決して光榮の主を十字架に釘けざりしならん。 (aiōn g165)
Some among you think that you are wise because unbelievers thought you were wise previously. Stop deceiving yourselves. [If you really want to be wise, by accepting what God considers to be wise] you should [be willing to let unbelievers consider that you are] foolish [IRO]. (aiōn g165)
誰も自ら欺くこと勿れ、汝等の中に己を敏しと思ふ者あらば、智者たらん為に此世に於て愚なるべし。 (aiōn g165)
So if [I, Paul, think that by] eating a certain food I might cause a fellow believer to be ruined spiritually, I will never eat such food again. I do not want to cause any fellow believer (to be ruined spiritually/to stop believing in Christ). [And you should] ([do as I do/imitate my example]). (aiōn g165)
故に若食物我兄弟を躓かするならば、我は兄弟を躓かせざらん為に、何時までも肉を食せじ。 (aiōn g165)
All those things [that happened to our ancestors long ago] are examples for us. [Moses] wrote those things to warn us [who are living at this time which is near the end]. We are the people for whom God has done [the things that he decided to do in] the previous periods of time. (aiōn g165)
是等の事は皆前兆として彼等に起りつつありしが、其録されたるは、世の末が身に及べる我等の誡とならん為なり。 (aiōn g165)
Death [APO] will not win a victory over us. Death will not be able to hurt us. (Hadēs g86)
「死よ、汝の勝利は何處にかある、死よ、汝の針は何處にかある」と。 (Hadēs g86)
[Satan, who is] the one [who rules] this world, controls the thoughts of those unbelievers. He prevents them from understanding the message about how wonderful Christ is. [They are not able to understand that] Jesus is like God [in every way]. (aiōn g165)
即ち彼等に於て、世間の神不信者の心を暗まし、神の像に在せるキリストの光榮の福音の光を、彼等の上に輝かしめじとせるなり。 (aiōn g165)
[I know that] all these troubles that [happen to us in this life are] not significant and will not last forever. [When we think of] the glorious things [that God is preparing] for us [to enjoy] forever [in heaven], all [our suffering now] is not important. (aiōnios g166)
其は我等の短く軽き現在の患難が、我等に永遠重大にして無比なる光榮を準備すればなり。 (aiōnios g166)
That is why we say, “We will not continue thinking about [all the suffering that we] are experiencing now. Even though [we] cannot see [all the things that God has prepared for us in heaven], those are what we should be thinking about.” [That is how we should think], because [all these troubles] that [we(exc)] have [now] will last only a short time. But what [we will have in heaven], what [we] cannot see [now], will last forever. (aiōnios g166)
我等の顧みるは見ゆるものに非ずして見えざるものなり、其は見ゆるものは此世に限れど見えざるものは永遠なればなり。 (aiōnios g166)
We know that [these bodies] we live in [here in this world are like] [MET] tents. [They are like temporary living/dwelling places]. [So we should not be concerned about what happens to our bodies]. We know that if we are killed {if [someone] kills us}, God will give us [permanent living places. Those permanent living places] [MET] will not be houses that people have made. They [will be new bodies in which we will live forever] in heaven. (aiōnios g166)
蓋我等は、幕屋なる我が地上の住處破るれば、人の手に成らずして神より賜はれる住處、永遠の家が我等の為に天に在る事を知る。 (aiōnios g166)
[Those who give willingly and cheerfully will be rewarded like the man about whom] it is written {[about whom] (someone/the Psalmist) wrote} in the Scriptures, He generously [helps others], [he gives to those] who are poor. [God will remember] the good things that he did, [and reward him with] good things forever. (aiōn g165)
録して、「[義人]蒔散らして貧人に與へたり、其義は世々に存す」、とあるが如し。 (aiōn g165)
God, who is the Father of our [(inc)] Lord Jesus, and who is the one [whom we should] praise forever, knows that I am not lying [about this]. (aiōn g165)
世々に祝せられ給ふ我主イエズス、キリストの神及び父は、我が僞らざる事を知り給ふ。 (aiōn g165)
Christ offered himself [as a sacrifice] in order that [he might remove the guilt for] our sins. He did that in order that he might enable us to not [do the evil things that people who do not know him] do. [He did this] because God, who is our Father, wanted it. (aiōn g165)
此キリストは即ち我父にて在す神の思召によりて、我等を此惡き世より救出さんとて、我等の罪の為に己を献げ給ひし者なれば、 (aiōn g165)
[I pray that people will] praise God forever. (May it be so!/Amen!) (aiōn g165)
之に世々光榮あれかし、アメン。 (aiōn g165)
[God] will punish eternally those who do what their self-directed natures urge them to do. But those who please [God’s] Spirit will live forever [with God] because of what [God’s] Spirit does for them. (aiōnios g166)
即ち己が肉の為に蒔く人は、又肉より腐敗を刈取り、霊の為に撒く人は、又霊より永遠の生命を刈取らん。 (aiōnios g166)
[There], Christ is the supreme ruler over every powerful spirit of every level of authority. His rank is much higher than any powerful spirit can receive, not only now, but forever. (aiōn g165)
一切の権勢と能力と、勢力と主権との上、又凡て今世のみならず來世にも名けられて名[あるもの]の上に置き給ひ、 (aiōn g165)
You were acting in the same [evil] way as those who oppose Christ [MTY] act. That is, you were behaving in the [evil] ways [that Satan wanted you to behave]. He rules over evil spiritual beings that no person can see [MTY]. He is the spirit who now powerfully controls the people who disobey God. (aiōn g165)
曾て此世間に從ひ、又空中の権を有して今も尚不信の子等の中に働ける、霊の君に從ひて歩めり。 (aiōn g165)
in order that he might show to everyone at all times in the future that he has acted toward us in an extremely kind way because of what Christ Jesus [did for us]. (aiōn g165)
是キリスト、イエズスに於る其善良を以て、我等の上に於る恩寵の非常なる富を、将來の世々に顕し給はん為なり。 (aiōn g165)
and to enable everyone to understand clearly how God accomplished what he planned. God, who created everything, [has now revealed] this message, which he never revealed to anyone before. (aiōn g165)
是萬物を創造し給ひたる神に於て、世の初より隠れたりし奥義の度の如何を、衆人に説明す恩寵にして、 (aiōn g165)
That is what God had always planned, and it is what he accomplished by what our Lord Jesus [has done]. (aiōn g165)
我主イエズス、キリストに於て全うし給へる、世々の預定に應ぜん為なり。 (aiōn g165)
Because of our relationship with Christ Jesus, may all (believers/those who belong to him) praise him forever. (Amen!/May it be so!) (aiōn g165)
教會及びキリスト、イエズスに於て、永遠の世に至るまで光榮あらん事を、アメン。 (aiōn g165)
You must do this because the fighting that we [believers] do is not only against human beings [SYN]. Instead, we are also fighting against evil spirits who rule and have authority over all that is evil [MET] in the world. And we are fighting against evil spirits who are in heavenly places (OR, everywhere). (aiōn g165)
其は我等の戰ふべきは血肉に對ひてには非ず、権勢及び能力、此暗黒の世の司等、天空の惡霊等に對ひてなればなり。 (aiōn g165)
[So], praise God our Father forever and ever! Amen! (aiōn g165)
願はくは我父にて在す神に世々光榮あらんことを、アメン。 (aiōn g165)
[We did not know this message previously; that is, God] concealed it from [the people who lived in all] the previous ages, but he has now revealed it to his people. (aiōn g165)
今や其聖徒等に顕れたる奥義を、具に傳へん為なり。 (aiōn g165)
[Our Lord Jesus] will forbid them from ever coming near to him and near to the glory which he has [because he is so] powerful (OR, the glory that is manifested by his power). He will cause those people to suffer forever. (aiōnios g166)
彼等は主の御顔と其能力の光榮とを離れて終なき亡の罰を受けん、 (aiōnios g166)
Our Lord Jesus Christ himself and God, our Father, loves us and encourages us and causes us to confidently expect [to receive] the eternal things that [he has promised to give to us] as a result of [Christ] acting kindly toward us in a way we did not deserve. (aiōnios g166)
願はくは我主イエズス、キリスト御自ら、并に我等を愛し給ひて恩寵による永遠の慰と善き希望とを賜ひし我父にて在す神、 (aiōnios g166)
Yet Christ Jesus acted mercifully to me in order that he might demonstrate [to people that he is perfectly patient with them]. He did that by his being patient with me, one who has sinned worse than everyone else. He wanted what he did for me (to be an example/to demonstrate his patience) to people who would [later] believe in him, and as a result would live forever. (aiōnios g166)
然るに慈悲を蒙りしはキリスト、イエズス其諸の堪忍を我に於て第一に顕し給ひ、永遠の生命を得んとて将に信ぜんとする人々に例を示し給はん為なり。 (aiōnios g166)
I desire that people will honor and praise the only [true] God forever! Even though no one can see him, he is the King who rules for all time, who will never die! (Amen!/That is true!) (aiōn g165)
願はくは萬世の王に在し不朽にして見え給はざる唯一の神に、世々尊崇と光榮と在らん事を、アメン。 (aiōn g165)
Try earnestly and with all your energy/strength [MET] to live in accordance with what you believe. [Continue to do your tasks well in order that] you will know for sure that you will live eternally. Remember that [God] chose you to [live with him], and that when many elders were listening you said strongly ([what you believe/that you trust in Christ]). (aiōnios g166)
信仰の善き戰を戰ひて永遠の生命を捉へよ。其は之に召されて、多くの證人の前に之が為に善き宣言を為したればなり。 (aiōnios g166)
He is the only one who will never die, [and he lives in heaven surrounded by] light [that is so bright that] no one can approach it! He is the one whom no person has ever seen and whom no person is able to see! My desire is that all people will honor him and that he [will rule] powerfully [MTY] forever! (May it be so!/Amen!) (aiōnios g166)
彼は獨不死を有し、近づくべからざる光に住み給ひ、一人も曾て見奉りし事なく又見奉る能はざる者に在し、尊榮と永遠の権能と之に歸す、アメン。 (aiōnios g166)
Tell [the believers] who are rich here in this present world that they should not be proud, and that they should not trust in their many [possessions], because they cannot be certain [how long they will have them]. Teach them that instead of [trusting in their wealth, they should trust] in God. He is the one who generously gives us everything we have in order that we may enjoy it. (aiōn g165)
汝此世の富者に命ぜよ、驕る事なく、確ならぬ富を恃まず、快樂の為にも萬物を豊に供給し給ふ活き給へる神を頼み奉り、 (aiōn g165)
[God] saved us and chose us to conduct our lives in a pure way. It was not our doing good deeds/actions [that caused him to do this for us—something] that we did not deserve. Instead, before (time began/he created the world) he purposed/planned to [be kind to us] as a result of what Christ Jesus [would do for us]. (aiōnios g166)
神の我等を救ひ、且聖なる召を以て召し給ひしは、我等の業によれるには非ず、御自らの規定により、又イエズス、キリストに於て世々の以前より我等に賜ひたる恩寵によれるなり。 (aiōnios g166)
Therefore I [willingly] endure all [that I am suffering] for the sake of those [whom God has] chosen. [I do this] in order that Christ Jesus will save them, too, and that they will be forever with [him in the] glorious [place where he is]. (aiōnios g166)
故に我は選まれたる人々の為に萬事を忍ぶ、是彼等をしてイエズス、キリストに於る救霊と天の榮光とを得しめん為なり。 (aiōnios g166)
[I say that] because Demas has left me. He wanted very much [the good things that he might enjoy] [MTY] in this world [right now], and so he went to Thessalonica [city]. Crescens [went to serve the Lord] in Galatia [province], and Titus went to Dalmatia [district]. (aiōn g165)
蓋デマスは此世を好み、我を棄ててテサロニケに行き、クレセンスはガラチアに、チトはダルマチアに行き、 (aiōn g165)
[Therefore, I am sure that] the Lord will rescue me from everything that is truly evil and will bring me safely to heaven, where he rules. Praise him forever! (Amen!/May it be so!) (aiōn g165)
主は我を一切の惡業より逃れしめ給ひ、尚其天國に於て我を救ひ給ふべし、主に世々光榮あれかし、アメン。 (aiōn g165)
[As a result of my doing these things, his people] confidently expect that God will cause them to live forever. God, who never lies, promised before he created the world that [his people] would live forever. (aiōnios g166)
永遠の生命の希望を生ぜしむる眞理の知識に應ずる為なり。即ち僞り給はざる神は世々の以前より此希望を約し給ひしに、 (aiōnios g166)
God teaches/tells us [PRS] how to stop doing what he dislikes, and to stop desiring the things that (ungodly people/people who habitually do things that do not please God) desire [MTY]. He wants us to control our behavior and to do what is right and to do what pleases him while we live in this present age/time. (aiōn g165)
我等に諭すに、不敬虔と世俗の欲とを棄てて、謹慎と正義と敬虔とを以て此世に生活すべき事、 (aiōn g165)
He wanted to erase the record of our sins even though we did not deserve that, and he wanted us to receive all that [God desires] to give us. [These are the things that we] confidently expect to receive when we live [with him] eternally. (aiōnios g166)
我等が其恩寵によりて義とせられ、永遠の生命の希望に於る世嗣と成らん為なり。 (aiōnios g166)
Perhaps the reason that [God permitted] Onesimus to be separated from {to leave} you for a little while was that [he would believe in Christ, and as a result] you would have him (back/with you) forever! (aiōnios g166)
彼が一時汝を離れしは、或は汝が永遠に之を受けて、 (aiōnios g166)
But now when this final age [is beginning], God has communicated to us [just once] by means of what (his Son/the man who was also God) [said and did. God] appointed him in order that he would possess everything [that truly belongs to God. God also appointed] him in order that he would create the universe. (aiōn g165)
此末の日に至り、曾て萬物の世嗣に立て、又之によりて世を造り給ひたる御子を以て、我等に語り給へり。 (aiōn g165)
But on the other hand, [in the Scriptures it is written that God said] this to his Son: You [(sg)] who are [also] God will rule forever [MTY], and you will reign righteously over your kingdom [MTY]. (aiōn g165)
御子に就きては、「神よ、汝の玉座は世々に在り、汝の王位の笏は義の笏なり、 (aiōn g165)
And he also said [to Christ what the Psalmist wrote] in another Scripture passage, You are a priest eternally just like Melchizedek was a priest. (aiōn g165)
他の篇に又、「汝は限なくメルキセデクの如き司祭なり」、と曰ひしが如し。 (aiōn g165)
By becoming (all [that] God intended him to be/perfect), [he has now] become fully qualified [to be our Supreme Priest. As a result, he is the one who saves] eternally all who obey him. (aiōnios g166)
然て全うせられ給ひて、從ひ奉る凡ての人に永遠の救霊の原と成り、 (aiōnios g166)
[I am referring to the teaching about what] various [Jewish and Christian] rituals for purifying people [signify. I am referring to the teaching about how elders enable people to receive spiritual gifts by] laying hands [on them] [MTY]. [I am referring to the teaching that God will] ([cause] those who have died to live again/raise people from the dead). And [I am referring to the teaching that God] will judge [some people and punish them] eternally. (aiōnios g166)
及び諸洗禮、按手禮、死者の復活、永遠の審判等に関する教の基礎を再び築く事を為ずして、尚完全なる事に進まん、 (aiōnios g166)
They have experienced that God’s message is good. And by what they have experienced [now], they know how [God will work] powerfully in the future. If those people reject [the message about Christ], it will not be possible for anyone to persuade them to turn away from their sinful behavior again! (aiōn g165)
且神の善き御言と來世の勢力とを味ひながら、 (aiōn g165)
Jesus went [into God’s presence] ahead of us [(inc)] to [help] us when he became a Supreme Priest eternally in the way that Melchizedek was a Supreme Priest. (aiōn g165)
更にイエズスが限なくメルキセデクの如き大司祭と為られて、我等の為に先駆として入り給ひし幕屋の中までも、[此希望は]入るものなり。 (aiōn g165)
[We know this] since [God] confirmed it in [the Scripture passage in which he said to his Son], You [(sg)] are a priest eternally just like Melchizedek was a priest. (aiōn g165)
其は、「汝は限なくメルキセデクの如き司祭なり」と稱せられたればなり。 (aiōn g165)
However, when he [appointed Christ to be a priest], it was by these words that [the Psalmist wrote in Scripture]: The Lord has solemnly declared [to the Messiah], —and he will not change his mind— “You will be a priest forever!” (aiōn g165)
イエズスは誓を以て、即ち、「主誓ひ給へり、取返し給ふ事なかるべし、汝は限なく司祭なり」と曰ひし者によりて立てられ給ひしなり。 (aiōn g165)
But because [Jesus] lives eternally, he will continue to be a Supreme Priest forever. (aiōn g165)
然れどイエズスは限なく存し給ふによりて、不朽の司祭職を有し給ふ。 (aiōn g165)
[We need a Supreme Priest like] him, because in the laws [that God gave Moses] [PRS] the ones who would be appointed to be priests would be men who tended [to sin easily]. But [God] solemnly [declared] [PRS] after [he had given] his laws [to Moses] that [he would appoint] (his Son/the man who is also God) [to be a Supreme Priest. Now] ([his Son/the man who is also God]) has forever become all that God intends him to be. (aiōn g165)
其は律法の立てし司祭は弱點或人々なるに、律法の後なる誓の言の立てしは、限なく完全に在す御子なればなり。 (aiōn g165)
[When a Supreme Priest goes into the inner room in the tent each year, he takes] goats’ blood and calves’ blood [to offer as a sacrifice]. But Christ did not [do that. It was as though] he went into that very holy place only once, taking his own blood with him. By doing that, he eternally redeemed us. (aiōnios g166)
牡山羊、犢の血を用ひず、己が血を以て一度聖所に入り、不朽の贖を得させ給ひしなり。 (aiōnios g166)
[So, because we know what] Christ [accomplished when] his blood flowed [when he died for us] [PRS, MTY], we will be very certain that we are not guilty [of having] done those things [that those who are spiritually] dead do. [As a result], we can serve God, who is all-powerful. [The priests always offer to God animals] with no defects. Similarly, when Christ offered himself [as a sacrifice] to God, he was sinless [MET]. He did that as a result of [God’s] eternal Spirit [helping him]. (aiōnios g166)
况や聖霊を以て、己が穢なき身を神に献げ給ひしキリストの御血は、活き給へる神に事へ奉らしめん為に、死せる業より我等の良心を潔むべきをや。 (aiōnios g166)
[By] dying [for us], [Christ] ([redeemed/] free from the penalty for their sins) even those who disobeyed the [conditions of] (OR, [during the time of]) the first covenant. So, [because] no [one could be made perfect by obeying the old covenant], now Christ establishes [between God and people] a new covenant. He does that in order that those whom God has chosen may eternally have [the blessings that God] has promised them. (aiōnios g166)
故にキリストは新約の仲介者に在して、死を凌ぎて前の約の下に犯されたる過を贖ひ、召されたる人々に永遠の世嗣の約束を得させ給ふなり。 (aiōnios g166)
[If that were so], he would have needed to suffer [and shed his blood] repeatedly since [the time when God] created the world. But instead, in this final age, [Christ] has appeared once in order that by sacrificing himself he could cause [that people] no longer will be [punished for their] sins. (aiōn g165)
然らずんば、開闢以來屡苦しみ給ふべかりしなり。然れど今世の末に當りて、己を犠牲として罪を亡ぼさん為に、一度現れ給ひしなり。 (aiōn g165)
It is because we trust in God that we understand that he formed the universe by commanding [it to exist]. The result is that the things that we see were not made from things that already existed. (aiōn g165)
信仰に由りて我等は、世界が神の一言にて組立てられ、現に見ゆるものが見ゆるものより成出でざりしことを暁る。 (aiōn g165)
Jesus Christ [is] the same now as he was previously, and he will be the same forever. (aiōn g165)
イエズス、キリストは昨日も今日も同一に在して、世々にも亦然り。 (aiōn g165)
Jesus [provides for us], [protects us, and guides us as] a great shepherd does for his sheep [MET]. And God, who gives us [inner] peace, brought our Lord Jesus back to life. By doing that, God ratified his eternal covenant with us by the blood [that flowed from Jesus when he died on the] cross. (aiōnios g166)
願はくは永遠の約の御血に由て、羊の大牧者にて在す我主イエズス、キリストを、死より復活せしめ給ひし平和の神、 (aiōnios g166)
So I pray that God will equip you with everything good [that you need in order] that you may do the things that he desires. May he accomplish in our lives whatever he considers pleasing as a result of Jesus Christ [equipping us]. May Jesus Christ be praised forever. (Amen!/May it be so!) (aiōn g165)
御旨を行はしめん為に、汝等を凡ての善事に完全ならしめ、御前に於て御意に適ふ所を、イエズス、キリストによりて、汝等の中に為し給はん事を。光榮世々之に歸す、アメン。 (aiōn g165)
[Just like a fire damages a forest] [MET], when we say things that are evil, [we harm many people]. What we say [MTY] reveals that we are very evil. What we say contaminates/defiles everything that we think and do [PRS, MET]. [Just like a flame of fire easily] causes [the whole surrounding area] [MET] to burn, what we say [MTY] can cause [others] to want to do evil. It is the devil himself [MTY] who causes us to say evil things. (Geenna g1067)
舌も亦火なり、不義の世界なり。舌は我等が五體の中に備はりて全身を穢し、地獄の火を以て燃され、我等が一生の車輪を焼く。 (Geenna g1067)
[I ask you to do this, because you now have] a new life [MET]. It was not [by means of] something that will perish that you received this new life. Instead, it was [by means of] something that will last forever; that is, by believing the life-giving and enduring message of God. (aiōn g165)
汝等が新に生れたるは、腐るべき種によらず、腐るべからざる種により、活きて永遠に存する神の御言によれり。 (aiōn g165)
but God’s message endures/lasts forever. This message [that endures/lasts] is the message [about Christ] that was proclaimed to you. (aiōn g165)
主の御言は永遠に存す。汝等に福音と成りし言は即ち是なり。 (aiōn g165)
Those who speak [to the congregation] should do that as though they are speaking the [very] words of God. Those who do kind things to others should do it with the strength that God gives them, in order that God may be honored by all this {that all this may honor God} as Jesus Christ [enables us to do it. I pray that we will] praise [God] (OR, [Jesus]) and allow him [to rule over us] forever. (May it be so!/Amen!) (aiōn g165)
即ち人語る時は神の御言を語るが如くし、務むる時は神の賜へる能力を以てするが如くすべし。是神が一切に於てイエズス、キリストを以て尊ばれ給はん為にして、光榮と主権と世々之に歸す、アメン。 (aiōn g165)
God is the one who kindly helps us in every [situation], and [he is the one] who chose us to share his eternal glory/greatness [in heaven] because of our relationship with Christ. [And] after you have suffered for a while [because of things that people do to harm you], he will remove your spiritual defects/imperfections, he will strengthen you [spiritually] [DOU], and he will support you [emotionally]. (aiōnios g166)
一切の恩寵の神はキリスト、イエズスによりて其永遠の光榮に汝等を呼び給ひしものなれば、聊苦しみたる上は、御自ら完全にし堅うし強からしめ給はん、 (aiōnios g166)
[I pray/desire that] he will [rule] powerfully forever. (May it be so!/Amen!) (aiōn g165)
光榮と主権と世々之に歸す、アメン。 (aiōn g165)
and [God] will very wholeheartedly welcome you into the place where our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ will rule [his people] forever. (aiōnios g166)
其は我主にして救主に在すイエズス、キリストの永遠の國に入るの恵を豊に加へらるべければなり。 (aiōnios g166)
God destroyed [LIT] the angels who sinned. He threw them into the worst place in hell and imprisoned them [there] in darkness in order to keep them there until he judges [and punishes them]. (Tartaroō g5020)
蓋神は罪を犯したる天使等を赦し給はずして、之を地獄の暗黒に繋置き、苦に委ねんとして審判を待たせ給ひ、 (Tartaroō g5020)
[Instead, live in such a manner that you] experience more and more our Savior Jesus Christ being kind [to you], and that you get to know him [better and better]. 2 Peter 3:18b [I pray/desire that Jesus Christ] will be honored both now and forever! (aiōn g165)
却て益恩寵を増し、益我主にして且救主にて在すイエズス、キリストを識り奉ることを努めよ。今も永遠の日にも、光榮彼に歸す、アメン。 (aiōn g165)
Because he came here [to the earth] and we have seen him, we proclaim to you clearly that the one whom we have seen is the [one who] has always lived. He was [previously] with his Father in heaven, but he came to live among us. (aiōnios g166)
即ち生命[たるもの]顕れ給へり、我等は曾て父の御許に在して、我等に顕れ給ひし永遠の生命を見奉り、之を保證し且汝等に告ぐるなり。 (aiōnios g166)
The [godless people in] the world [MTY], along with what they desire, will disappear, but those who do what God wants [them to do] will live forever! You know that it is now the final period of this age when there are liars who deny that Jesus is God’s Chosen One. But you have the power of God’s Spirit and you know what is true and what is false. So continue to live according to the true message that you heard when you began to believe in Christ, in order that you may continue to live united both to God’s Son and to the Father. (aiōn g165)
而して世も其慾も過去れど、神の御旨を行ふ人は限なく存するなり。 (aiōn g165)
And what God told us is that [he will cause us] to live forever! (aiōnios g166)
夫御子が自ら我等に約し給ひし約束は、即ち永遠の生命なり。 (aiōnios g166)
Those who hate [any of] their fellow believers, [God considers] [MET] them [to be] murderers. And you know that no murderer has eternal life. (aiōnios g166)
総て己が兄弟を憎む人は人殺者なり、総て人殺者は永遠の生命の其身に止る事なきは汝等の知る所なり。 (aiōnios g166)
This is what [God] says [to us]: “I have given you eternal life!” We will live forever if we have a close relationship with his Son. (aiōnios g166)
其證は是なり、即ち神我等に永遠の生命を賜ひて、此生命は其御子に在り、 (aiōnios g166)
I have written this [letter] to you who believe that Jesus is [MTY] (God’s Son/the one who is also God) in order that you may know that you have eternal life. (aiōnios g166)
結末。 我が是等の事を汝等に書贈るは、神の御子の御名を信じ奉る汝等をして、自ら永遠の生命を有せる事を知らしめん為なり。 (aiōnios g166)
We also know that (God’s Son/the one who is also God) has come [to us], and [we know] that he has enabled us to know God, the one who is really/truly God. So now we have a close relationship with [God because] we belong to Jesus Christ, the one who is the (Son of/man who is also) God. Jesus Christ is truly God, and [he is the one who enables us to have] eternal life. (aiōnios g166)
神の御子が我等に眞の神を識らしめ、我等を其眞の御子に在らしめん為に、來りて智識を與へ給へる事は我等又之を知れり。是ぞ眞の神にして又永遠の生命にて在す。 (aiōnios g166)
All of us [believe God’s] true message. It is in our ([inner beings/hearts]) and we will continue [to believe it] forever! (aiōn g165)
今我等の中に止りて、而も限なく我等と共に存すべき眞理に對して、眞に愛する所の者に[書簡を贈る]。 (aiōn g165)
And there were [many] angels to [whom God assigned/gave positions of authority in heaven]. But many did not continue to rule with authority [in those positions]. Instead, they abandoned the place that [God] gave them to live [in heaven]. So God has put those angels in chains forever in the darkness [in hell. They will stay there] until the great day when [God] will judge [and punish] them. (aïdios g126, questioned)
又己が位を保たず己が居處を棄てたりし天使等を、大いなる日の審判の為に、無窮の縲絏を以て暗黒の中に閉ぢ給ひ、 (aïdios g126)
Similarly, the people who lived [MTY] in Sodom and Gomorrah [cities] and the nearby cities committed sexual immorality. They sought all kinds of sexual relations that differ [from what God permits. So God destroyed their cities. What happened to those people and those angels] shows that [God will] punish [people, such as the ones who teach false doctrine], in the eternal fire [of hell]. (aiōnios g166, questioned)
又ソドマ、ゴモラ及び其付近の市町は、同じく淫亂に耽り、異なる肉身を冒したるが故に、永遠の火の刑罰を受けて見せしめと為られしなり。 (aiōnios g166)
They are [restless] [MET], [like] the pounding waves of the ocean. [Just like] waves [produce foul-smelling] foam on the shore, [those teachers of false doctrine do] shameful [MTY] [deeds. We cannot depend/rely on them to show us how to conduct our lives] [MET], [just like we cannot depend/rely on] (meteors/falling stars) [to show us the way when we travel]. [God] has reserved intense darkness for them forever [in hell]. (aiōn g165, questioned)
己が醜行を泡立たする海の暴波、暗黒が彼等の為に限なく備はれる惑星なり。 (aiōn g165)
Keep conducting your lives in [a way that is appropriate for those whom] God loves. Keep constantly expecting that our Lord Jesus Christ will [act] mercifully toward you. Keep expecting that until [the time when we begin] living eternally [with him]. (aiōnios g166)
己を神の愛の中に守り、永遠の生命を得ん為に、我主イエズス、キリストの御慈悲を待て。 (aiōnios g166)
He is the only true God. He has saved us as a result of what Jesus Christ our Lord [did for us]. God was glorious and great and mighty and he [ruled] with great authority before time began. [He is still like that], and [he will remain like that] forever! (Amen!/That is true!) (aiōn g165)
即ち我主イエズス、キリストによりて、我救主にて在す唯一の神に、萬世の以前に於ても、今に於ても、又萬世に至る迄も、光榮、威光、能力、権能歸す、アメン。 (aiōn g165)
He is [the one who] has caused us to become people whose lives God rules, and he has made us to be priests [who serve] God his Father. [As a result of this, we acknowledge that] Jesus Christ is eternally divine and eternally powerful. (Amen!/That is true!) (aiōn g165)
我等を以て其父にて在す神の為に國と為し祭司と為し給ひしものにして、光榮と権威と是に在りて世々に限なし、アメン。 (aiōn g165)
The living [creatures praise], honor [DOU], and thank the one who sits on the throne, the one who lives forever. (aiōn g165)
斯て此四の動物、玉座に坐し給ひて世々に限なく活き給ふものに、光榮と尊崇と感謝とを歸し奉るに、 (aiōn g165)
Whenever they do that, the 24 elders (prostrate themselves/kneel down) before the one who sits on the throne, and they worship him, the one who lives forever. They lay their crowns in front of the throne and sing: (aiōn g165)
廿四人の翁、玉座に坐し給ふものの御前に平伏し、世々に限なく活き給ふものを禮拝し奉り、己が冠を玉座の前に投じつつ、 (aiōn g165)
I also heard every creature that is in heaven and on the earth and under the earth and on the ocean, every creature in all those places, saying (OR, singing): “We must forever praise and honor the one who sits on the throne and the one who is like a lamb, May they reign with complete power forever!” (aiōn g165)
又天にも、地上にも地下にも、海上にも何處にも、被造物の悉く言へるを聞けり、玉座に坐し給ふものと羔とに、祝福と尊貴と、光榮と権能と、世々に限なし、と。 (aiōn g165)
This time I saw a pale horse [come out]. The one who sat on it is named ‘[The one who causes] death [PRS]’, and [the one that is named ‘The place where dead people go’] accompanied him. [God] gave them authority over one quarter of the people on earth to incite them to kill each other with weapons [SYN], and also authority to kill them (by [causing them to] starve, by [their causing them to become] sick from epidemics, and by [their causing them to be attacked by] wild animals. (Hadēs g86)
折しも死色の馬ありて、之に乗れるものは名を死と云ひ、冥府其後に從ひ、彼は剣と飢饉と死亡と地の猛獣とを以て地上の人の四分の一を殺す権力を授けられたり。 (Hadēs g86)
They said, “May it be so! [We(exc)] praise, thank, and honor [you], our [(exc)] God, forever! [We(exc) acknowledge] that you are completely wise, the powerful one, who is forever able to accomplish everything he wants to. (May everyone acknowlege that it is so!/Amen!)” (aiōn g165)
言ひけるは、アメン、祝福と光榮と、叡智と感謝と、尊貴と能力と、世々に限なく我神に歸す、アメン、と。 (aiōn g165)
The fifth angel blew his trumpet. Then I saw [an evil angel. He was like] a star that had fallen from the sky to the earth. He was given {[Someone] gave him} the key to the shaft [that descended] ([to] the underworld/[to] the deep dark pit). (Abyssos g12)
第五の天使喇叭を吹きしに、我一の星の天より地に落ちたるを見たり。然て彼は底なき淵の穴の鍵を授けられ、 (Abyssos g12)
When he opened that shaft, smoke arose from it like smoke from a huge burning furnace. The smoke prevented [anyone from seeing] the sky and the light of the sun. (Abyssos g12)
淵の穴を開きしかば、大いなる炉の烟の如き烟穴より立昇りて、日も空も穴の烟の為に暗まされたり。 (Abyssos g12)
The king who ruled over them was the angel of the underworld. His name in the Hebrew language is Abaddon. In the Greek language it is Apollyon. [Both of] those names [mean ‘Destroyer’]. (Abyssos g12)
此蝗を司る王は底なき淵の使にして、名はヘブレオ語にてアバッドン、ギリシア語にてアポルリオンと云ひ、ラテン語[の意味]は破壊者なり。 (Abyssos g12)
and he asked the one who lives forever, the one who created heaven and everything that is in it, [who created] the earth and everything that is in it, and [who created] the ocean and everything that is in it, to affirm that what he said was true. [He said that he] would surely no longer delay [what he had planned to do]. (aiōn g165)
世々に限なく活き給ひ、天と之に有らゆるものと、地と之に有らゆるものと、海と之に有らゆるものとを造り給ひしものを指して誓ひ言ひけるは、最早時あらざるべし、 (aiōn g165)
When they have finished proclaiming [to people the message from God], the beast that comes up (from the underworld/from the deep dark pit) will attack them, overcome them, and kill them. (Abyssos g12)
彼等其證明を終へたらん後は、底なき淵より上る獣ありて彼等と戰を為し、勝ちて之を殺すべく、 (Abyssos g12)
Then the seventh angel blew [his trumpet]. Angels in heaven shouted loudly, “Our Lord [God] and the Messiah [whom he has appointed] can now govern [everyone in] [MTY] the world, and they will continue to rule people forever!” (aiōn g165)
第四款 第七の喇叭神の國を報ず 第七の天使喇叭を吹きしかば、天に大いなる聲響きて言ひけるは、此世の國は我主と其キリストとのものと成りたれば、世々に限なく統治し給ふべし、アメン、と。 (aiōn g165)
I saw another angel that was flying between the sky and heaven. He was bringing [God’s] eternal good message [to earth], in order that he might proclaim it to people who live on the earth. He will proclaim it to every nation, [to every] tribe, [to speakers of every] language [MTY], and [to every] people-[group]. (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)
The smoke [from the fire] that torments them will rise forever. [They will] be tormented {[God will] torment them} continually, day and night. [That is what will happen to] the people who worship the beast and its image and who allow its name to be marked on them {allow [its agent] to mark them with its 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)
One of the four living [creatures] gave [each of] the seven angels a golden bowl, filled with [wine/liquid. That wine/liquid symbolized] that God, who lives forever, would severely punish [rebellious people]. (aiōn g165)
四の動物の一は、世々に限なく活き給ふ神の御怒の満てる七の金の器を、七の天使に與へしかば、 (aiōn g165)
The beast that you saw [lived] previously. Eventually God will destroy him, but now he is dead. He is [about to] come up (from the underworld/from the deep dark pit). [When] the beast who had previously lived, and who then had died, reappears, the people who live on the earth will be amazed. [They are people whose] names were not in the book in which are written the names of people [who will] have eternal life. [The angels have been writing those names in a list] (from the beginning of the world/from the time when the world began). (Abyssos g12)
汝の見し獣は曾て有りしも今在らず、後には底なき淵より上りて亡に至らん。地上に住みて世の開闢より以後生命の名簿に名を記されざる人々は、曾て有りしも今は在らずして後に顕るべき、彼獣を見て驚き怪しまん。 (Abyssos g12)
[The crowd] shouted a second time saying: (Hallelujah!/Praise God!) The smoke of the fire that is burning the cities will rise forever! (aiōn g165)
又重ねて言ひけるは、アレルヤ、彼が烟立昇りて世々に限なし、と。 (aiōn g165)
The beast and the false prophet were captured {[He] captured the beast and the false prophet}. The false prophet is the one who had performed miracles in the beast’s presence. By doing that he had deceived the people who had accepted the beast’s mark [on their foreheads] and who worshipped its image. The beast and the false prophet were thrown {[He] threw the beast and the one who falsely said that he spoke messages that came directly from God} alive into the lake of fire that burns with sulfur. (Limnē Pyr g3041 g4442)
I saw an angel coming down from heaven. He had the key to the deep dark pit, and he was carrying a large chain in his hand. (Abyssos g12)
又見たるに、一の天使底なき淵の鍵と大いなる鎖とを手に持ちて天より降り、 (Abyssos g12)
The angel threw him into the deep dark pit. He shut [the door of the pit], locked it, and sealed it [to prevent anyone from opening it]. He did that in order that Satan might no longer deceive [the people of the] nations [MTY], until those 1,000 years are ended. After that [time], Satan must be released {[God/God’s angel] must release Satan} for a short time [in order that he can do what God has planned]. (Abyssos g12)
底なき淵に投入れて之を閉籠め、封印を其上に為せり。是一千年の終るまで諸民を惑はさざらしめん為にして、其後は暫し解放たるべし、 (Abyssos g12)
Revelation 20:9 (ヨハネの黙示録 20:9)
(parallel missing)
The devil, who had deceived those people, will be thrown {[God’s angel] will throw the devil, who had deceived those people} into the lake of burning sulfur. [This is the same lake] into which both the beast and the false prophet had been [thrown] {[he] had [thrown] both the beast and the false prophet}. [As a result], they will continually suffer severely forever. (aiōn g165, Limnē Pyr g3041 g4442)
彼等を惑はしたる惡魔は火と硫黄との池に投入れられたり。是に於て彼獣と、僞預言者と、世々に限なく晝夜苦しめらるべし。 (aiōn g165)
[The people whose bodies were buried in the] sea [became alive again in order to stand before God’s throne]. Everyone who had been buried on the land (OR, Every person who was waiting in the place where dead people stay) [became alive again, in order to stand before the throne]. [God] judged each one of them according to what each one had done. (Hadēs g86)
斯て海は其中に在りし死者を出し、死も冥府も亦其中に在りし死者を出し、各其業に從ひて審判せられ、 (Hadēs g86)
But those who are cowardly, those who do not believe [in me], those [who do] detestable things, those who are murderers, those who sin sexually, those who commit sorcery, those who worship idols, and every liar, will [all suffer] in the lake that burns with fire and sulfur. [Anyone who suffers in that lake] will be dying the second time.” (Limnē Pyr g3041 g4442)
There will never again be night. [God’s servants] will not need the light of a lamp or the light of the sun, because the Lord God will shine his light upon them. And they will rule forever. (aiōn g165)
最早夜ある事なく、燈の光をも日の光をも要する事なかるべし、其は神にて在す主彼等を照し給へばなり。斯の如くにして彼等は世々に限なく王たるべし。 (aiōn g165)

That way is like a] wide road that people walk on [PRS, MET] until they reach the wide gate, but that road and that gate lead to where [they] will be destroyed {[God] will destroy them}. Many people enter that gate. So I [am telling you to leave the wide road and] enter the narrow gate [to heaven].” (questioned)

And those people who died [EUP] [while they were trusting] in Christ will go to hell. (questioned)
