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)

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.

[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)

すると、ある律法の専門家が立ち上がり、イエスをためそうとして言った。「先生。何をしたら永遠のいのちを自分のものとして受けることができるでしょうか。」 (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)
恐れなければならない方を、あなたがたに教えてあげましょう。殺したあとで、ゲヘナに投げ込む権威を持っておられる方を恐れなさい。そうです。あなたがたに言います。この方を恐れなさい。 (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)
この世の子らは、自分たちの世のことについては、光の子らよりも抜けめがないものなので、主人は、不正な管理人がこうも抜けめなくやったのをほめた。 (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)

イエスは彼らに言われた。「この世の子らは、めとったり、とついだりするが、 (aiōn g165)
But the men whom God considers worthy of [being in heaven after] they become alive again will not be married. (aiōn g165)
次の世にはいるのにふさわしく、死人の中から復活するのにふさわしい、と認められる人たちは、めとることも、とつぐこともありません。 (aiōn g165)
As a result, everyone who believes/trusts in me will have eternal life.” (aiōnios g166)
それは、信じる者がみな、人の子にあって永遠のいのちを持つためです。」 (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)

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)
御子を信じる者は永遠のいのちを持つが、御子に聞き従わない者は、いのちを見ることがなく、神の怒りがその上にとどまる。 (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)
すでに、刈る者は報酬を受け、永遠のいのちに入れられる実を集めています。それは蒔く者と刈る者がともに喜ぶためです。 (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)
まことに、まことに、あなたがたに告げます。わたしのことばを聞いて、わたしを遣わした方を信じる者は、永遠のいのちを持ち、さばきに会うことがなく、死からいのちに移っているのです。 (aiōnios g166)
You carefully study (OR, Study) the Scriptures, because you think that by [studying] them you will [find the way to] have eternal life. And those Scriptures tell people about me! (aiōnios g166)
あなたがたは、聖書の中に永遠のいのちがあると思うので、聖書を調べています。その聖書が、わたしについて証言しているのです。 (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)

[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)
事実、わたしの父のみこころは、子を見て信じる者がみな永遠のいのちを持つことです。わたしはその人たちをひとりひとり終わりの日によみがえらせます。」 (aiōnios g166)
Listen to this carefully: Everyone who believes ([my message/in me]) has eternal life. (aiōnios g166)
まことに、まことに、あなたがたに告げます。信じる者は永遠のいのちを持ちます。 (aiōnios g166)
I am the one who came down from heaven to enable people to have [spiritual] life. If people take what I will give them, they will live forever. What I will give them is my flesh, which I will give to [all the people in] [MTY] the world in order that they may have [spiritual] life.” (aiōn g165)

すると、シモン・ペテロが答えた。「主よ。私たちがだれのところに行きましょう。あなたは、永遠のいのちのことばを持っておられます。 (aiōnios g166)
A slave is not a permanent member of a family. But a son is a member of a family forever. [Similarly, you say you are members of God’s family because you are descendants of Abraham, but really, because you are like slaves of your sinful desires, you are no longer permanent members of God’s family]. (aiōn g165)
奴隷はいつまでも家にいるのではありません。しかし、息子はいつまでもいます。 (aiōn g165)
But the truth is that anyone who obeys what I say will never die!” (aiōn g165)
まことに、まことに、あなたがたに告げます。だれでもわたしのことばを守るならば、その人は決して死を見ることがありません。」 (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)
ユダヤ人たちはイエスに言った。「あなたが悪霊につかれていることが、今こそわかりました。アブラハムは死に、預言者たちも死にました。しかし、あなたは、『だれでもわたしのことばを守るならば、その人は決して死を味わうことがない。』と言うのです。 (aiōn g165)
No one has ever enabled a man to see who was blind when he was born [like I was]. That has never happened since the world began! (aiōn g165)
盲目に生まれついた者の目をあけた者があるなどとは、昔から聞いたこともありません。 (aiōn g165)
Furthermore, all those who believe in me while they are alive, [their souls] will not die [forever]. Do you believe that?” (aiōn g165)
また、生きていてわたしを信じる者は、決して死ぬことがありません。このことを信じますか。」 (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)
そこで、群衆はイエスに答えた。「私たちは、律法で、キリストはいつまでも生きておられると聞きましたが、どうしてあなたは、人の子は上げられなければならない、と言われるのですか。その人の子とはだれですか。」 (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)
わたしは、父の命令が永遠のいのちであることを知っています。それゆえ、わたしが話していることは、父がわたしに言われたとおりを、そのままに話しているのです。」 (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)
ペテロはイエスに言った。「決して私の足をお洗いにならないでください。」イエスは答えられた。「もしわたしが洗わなければ、あなたはわたしと何の関係もありません。」 (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)
わたしは父にお願いします。そうすれば、父はもうひとりの助け主をあなたがたにお与えになります。その助け主がいつまでもあなたがたと、ともにおられるためにです。 (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)
それは子が、あなたからいただいたすべての者に、永遠のいのちを与えるため、あなたは、すべての人を支配する権威を子にお与えになったからです。 (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)
その永遠のいのちとは、彼らが唯一のまことの神であるあなたと、あなたの遣わされたイエス・キリストとを知ることです。 (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)
あなたは私のたましいをハデスに捨てて置かず、 あなたの聖者が朽ち果てるのを お許しにならないからである。 (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)
それで後のことを予見して、キリストの復活について、『彼はハデスに捨てて置かれず、その肉体は朽ち果てない。』と語ったのです。 (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)
このイエスは、神が昔から、聖なる預言者たちの口を通してたびたび語られた、あの万物の改まる時まで、天にとどまっていなければなりません。 (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)
そこでパウロとバルナバは、はっきりとこう宣言した。「神のことばは、まずあなたがたに語られなければならなかったのです。しかし、あなたがたはそれを拒んで、自分自身を永遠のいのちにふさわしくない者と決めたのです。見なさい。私たちは、これからは異邦人のほうへ向かいます。 (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)
異邦人たちは、それを聞いて喜び、主のみことばを賛美した。そして、永遠のいのちに定められていた人たちは、みな、信仰にはいった。 (aiōnios g166)
I [caused my people to know about them] long ago.” (aiōn g165)
大昔からこれらのことを知らせておられる主が、 こう言われる。』 (aiōn g165)
[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)
神の、目に見えない本性、すなわち神の永遠の力と神性は、世界の創造された時からこのかた、被造物によって知られ、はっきりと認められるのであって、彼らに弁解の余地はないのです。 (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)
それは、彼らが神の真理を偽りと取り代え、造り主の代わりに造られた物を拝み、これに仕えたからです。造り主こそ、とこしえにほめたたえられる方です。アーメン。 (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)
忍耐をもって善を行ない、栄光と誉れと不滅のものとを求める者には、永遠のいのちを与え、 (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)
それは、罪が死によって支配したように、恵みが、私たちの主イエス・キリストにより、義の賜物によって支配し、永遠のいのちを得させるためなのです。 (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)
しかし今は、罪から解放されて神の奴隷となり、聖潔に至る実を得たのです。その行き着く所は永遠のいのちです。 (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)
罪から来る報酬は死です。しかし、神の下さる賜物は、私たちの主キリスト・イエスにある永遠のいのちです。 (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)
先祖たちも彼らのものです。またキリストも、人としては彼らから出られたのです。このキリストは万物の上にあり、とこしえにほめたたえられる神です。アーメン。 (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)
また、「だれが地の奥底に下るだろうか、と言ってはいけない。」それはキリストを死者の中から引き上げることです。 (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)
なぜなら、神は、すべての人をあわれもうとして、すべての人を不従順のうちに閉じ込められたからです。 (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)
というのは、すべてのことが、神から発し、神によって成り、神に至るからです。どうか、この神に、栄光がとこしえにありますように。アーメン。 (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)
この世と調子を合わせてはいけません。いや、むしろ、神のみこころは何か、すなわち、何が良いことで、神に受け入れられ、完全であるのかをわきまえ知るために、心の一新によって自分を変えなさい。 (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)
私の福音とイエス・キリストの宣教によって、すなわち、世々にわたって長い間隠されていたが、 (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)
今や現わされて、永遠の神の命令に従い、預言者たちの書によって、信仰の従順に導くためにあらゆる国の人々に知らされた奥義の啓示によって、あなたがたを堅く立たせることができる方、 (aiōnios g166)
[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)
知恵に富む唯一の神に、イエス・キリストによって、御栄えがとこしえまでありますように。アーメン。 (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)
知者はどこにいるのですか。学者はどこにいるのですか。この世の議論家はどこにいるのですか。神は、この世の知恵を愚かなものにされたではありませんか。 (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)
しかし私たちは、成人の間で、知恵を語ります。この知恵は、この世の知恵でもなく、この世の過ぎ去って行く支配者たちの知恵でもありません。 (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)
私たちの語るのは、隠された奥義としての神の知恵であって、それは、神が、私たちの栄光のために、世界の始まる前から、あらかじめ定められたものです。 (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)
この知恵を、この世の支配者たちは、だれひとりとして悟りませんでした。もし悟っていたら、栄光の主を十字架につけはしなかったでしょう。 (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)
だれも自分を欺いてはいけません。もしあなたがたの中で、自分は今の世の知者だと思う者がいたら、知者になるためには愚かになりなさい。 (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)
ですから、もし食物が私の兄弟をつまずかせるなら、私は今後いっさい肉を食べません。それは、私の兄弟につまずきを与えないためです。 (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)
これらのことが彼らに起こったのは、戒めのためであり、それが書かれたのは、世の終わりに臨んでいる私たちへの教訓とするためです。 (aiōn g165)
Death [APO] will not win a victory over us. Death will not be able to hurt us. (Hadēs g86)
「死よ。おまえの勝利はどこにあるのか。死よ。おまえのとげはどこにあるのか。」 (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)
そのばあい、この世の神が不信者の思いをくらませて、神のかたちであるキリストの栄光にかかわる福音の光を輝かせないようにしているのです。 (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)
今の時の軽い患難は、私たちのうちに働いて、測り知れない、重い永遠の栄光をもたらすからです。 (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)
私たちは、見えるものにではなく、見えないものにこそ目を留めます。見えるものは一時的であり、見えないものはいつまでも続くからです。 (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)
私たちの住まいである地上の幕屋がこわれても、神の下さる建物があることを、私たちは知っています。それは、人の手によらない、天にある永遠の家です。 (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)
「この人は散らして、貧しい人々に与えた。 その義は永遠にとどまる。」 と書いてあるとおりです。 (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)
主イエス・キリストの父なる神、永遠にほめたたえられる方は、私が偽りを言っていないのをご存じです。 (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)
キリストは、今の悪の世界から私たちを救い出そうとして、私たちの罪のためにご自身をお捨てになりました。私たちの神であり父である方のみこころによったのです。 (aiōn g165)
[I pray that people will] praise God forever. (May it be so!/Amen!) (aiōn g165)
どうか、この神に栄光がとこしえにありますように。アーメン。 (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)
自分の肉のために蒔く者は、肉から滅びを刈り取り、御霊のために蒔く者は、御霊から永遠のいのちを刈り取るのです。 (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)
すべての支配、権威、権力、主権の上に、また、今の世ばかりでなく、次に来る世においてもとなえられる、すべての名の上に高く置かれました。 (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)
そのころは、それらの罪の中にあってこの世の流れに従い、空中の権威を持つ支配者として今も不従順の子らの中に働いている霊に従って、歩んでいました。 (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)
それは、あとに来る世々において、このすぐれて豊かな御恵みを、キリスト・イエスにおいて私たちに賜わる慈愛によって明らかにお示しになるためでした。 (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)
また、万物を創造された神の中に世々隠されていた奥義を実行に移す務めが何であるかを明らかにするためにほかなりません。 (aiōn g165)
That is what God had always planned, and it is what he accomplished by what our Lord Jesus [has done]. (aiōn g165)
私たちの主キリスト・イエスにおいて実現された神の永遠のご計画に沿ったことです。 (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)
教会により、またキリスト・イエスにより、栄光が、世々にわたって、とこしえまでありますように。アーメン。 (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)
私たちの格闘は血肉に対するものではなく、主権、力、この暗やみの世界の支配者たち、また、天にいるもろもろの悪霊に対するものです。 (aiōn g165)
[So], praise God our Father forever and ever! Amen! (aiōn g165)
どうか、私たちの父なる神に御栄えがとこしえにありますように。アーメン。 (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)
これは、多くの世代にわたって隠されていて、いま神の聖徒たちに現わされた奥義なのです。 (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)
そのような人々は、主の御顔の前とその御力の栄光から退けられて、永遠の滅びの刑罰を受けるのです。 (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)
どうか、私たちの主イエス・キリストであり、私たちの父なる神である方、すなわち、私たちを愛し、恵みによって永遠の慰めとすばらしい望みとを与えてくださった方ご自身が、 (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)
しかし、そのような私があわれみを受けたのは、イエス・キリストが、今後彼を信じて永遠のいのちを得ようとしている人々の見本にしようと、まず私に対してこの上ない寛容を示してくださったからです。 (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)
どうか、世々の王、すなわち、滅びることなく、目に見えない唯一の神に、誉れと栄えとが世々限りなくありますように。アーメン。 (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)
信仰の戦いを勇敢に戦い、永遠のいのちを獲得しなさい。あなたはこのために召され、また、多くの証人たちの前でりっぱな告白をしました。 (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)
ただひとり死のない方であり、近づくこともできない光の中に住まわれ、人間がだれひとり見たことのない、また見ることのできない方です。誉れと、とこしえの主権は神のものです。アーメン。 (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)
この世で富んでいる人たちに命じなさい。高ぶらないように。また、たよりにならない富に望みを置かないように。むしろ、私たちにすべての物を豊かに与えて楽しませてくださる神に望みを置くように。 (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)
神は私たちを救い、また、聖なる招きをもって召してくださいましたが、それは私たちの働きによるのではなく、ご自身の計画と恵みとによるのです。この恵みは、キリスト・イエスにおいて、私たちに永遠の昔に与えられたものであって、 (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)
ですから、私は選ばれた人たちのために、すべてのことを耐え忍びます。それは、彼らもまたキリスト・イエスにある救いと、それとともに、とこしえの栄光を受けるようになるためです。 (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)
デマスは今の世を愛し、私を捨ててテサロニケに行ってしまい、また、クレスケンスはガラテヤに、テトスはダルマテヤに行ったからです。 (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)
主は私を、すべての悪のわざから助け出し、天の御国に救い入れてくださいます。主に、御栄えがとこしえにありますように。アーメン。 (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)
それは、偽ることのない神が、永遠の昔から約束してくださった永遠のいのちの望みに基づくことです。 (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)
私たちに、不敬虔とこの世の欲とを捨て、この時代にあって、慎み深く、正しく、敬虔に生活し、 (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)
それは、私たちがキリストの恵みによって義と認められ、永遠のいのちの望みによって、相続人となるためです。 (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)
彼がしばらくの間あなたから離されたのは、たぶん、あなたが彼を永久に取り戻すためであったのでしょう。 (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)
この終わりの時には、御子によって、私たちに語られました。神は、御子を万物の相続者とし、また御子によって世界を造られました。 (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)
御子については、こう言われます。 「神よ。あなたの御座は世々限りなく、 あなたの御国の杖こそ、まっすぐな杖です。 (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)
別の個所で、こうも言われます。 「あなたは、とこしえに、 メルキゼデクの位に等しい祭司である。」 (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)
完全な者とされ、彼に従うすべての人々に対して、とこしえの救いを与える者となり、 (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)
きよめの洗いについての教え、手を置く儀式、死者の復活、とこしえのさばきなど基礎的なことを再びやり直したりしないようにしましょう。 (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)
神のすばらしいみことばと、後にやがて来る世の力とを味わったうえで、 (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)
イエスは私たちの先駆けとしてそこにはいり、永遠にメルキゼデクの位に等しい大祭司となられました。 (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)
この方については、こうあかしされています。 「あなたは、とこしえに、 メルキゼデクの位に等しい祭司である。」 (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)
――彼らのばあいは、誓いなしに祭司となるのですが、主のばあいには、主に対して次のように言われた方の誓いがあります。 「主は誓ってこう言われ、 みこころを変えられることはない。 『あなたはとこしえに祭司である。』」―― (aiōn g165)
But because [Jesus] lives eternally, he will continue to be a Supreme Priest forever. (aiōn g165)
しかし、キリストは永遠に存在されるのであって、変わることのない祭司の務めを持っておられます。 (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)
律法は弱さを持つ人間を大祭司に立てますが、律法のあとから来た誓いのみことばは、永遠に全うされた御子を立てるのです。 (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)
また、やぎと子牛との血によってではなく、ご自分の血によって、ただ一度、まことの聖所にはいり、永遠の贖いを成し遂げられたのです。 (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)
まして、キリストが傷のないご自身を、とこしえの御霊によって神におささげになったその血は、どんなにか私たちの良心をきよめて死んだ行ないから離れさせ、生ける神に仕える者とすることでしょう。 (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)
こういうわけで、キリストは新しい契約の仲介者です。それは、初めの契約のときの違反を贖うための死が実現したので、召された者たちが永遠の資産の約束を受けることができるためなのです。 (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)
もしそうでなかったら、世の初めから幾度も苦難を受けなければならなかったでしょう。しかしキリストは、ただ一度、今の世の終わりに、ご自身をいけにえとして罪を取り除くために、来られたのです。 (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)
信仰によって、私たちは、この世界が神のことばで造られたことを悟り、したがって、見えるものが目に見えるものからできたのではないことを悟るのです。 (aiōn g165)
Jesus Christ [is] the same now as he was previously, and he will be the same forever. (aiōn g165)
イエス・キリストは、きのうもきょうも、いつまでも、同じです。 (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)
永遠の契約の血による羊の大牧者、私たちの主イエスを死者の中から導き出された平和の神が、 (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)
イエス・キリストにより、御前でみこころにかなうことを私たちのうちに行ない、あなたがたがみこころを行なうことができるために、すべての良いことについて、あなたがたを完全な者としてくださいますように。どうか、キリストに栄光が世々限りなくありますように。アーメン。 (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)
舌は火であり、不義の世界です。舌は私たちの器官の一つですが、からだ全体を汚し、人生の車輪を焼き、そしてゲヘナの火によって焼かれます。 (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)
あなたがたが新しく生まれたのは、朽ちる種からではなく、朽ちない種からであり、生ける、いつまでも変わることのない、神のことばによるのです。 (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)
しかし、主のことばは、 とこしえに変わることがない。」 とあるからです。あなたがたに宣べ伝えられた福音のことばがこれです。 (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)
語る人があれば、神のことばにふさわしく語り、奉仕する人があれば、神が豊かに備えてくださる力によって、それにふさわしく奉仕しなさい。それは、すべてのことにおいて、イエス・キリストを通して神があがめられるためです。栄光と支配が世々限りなくキリストにありますように。アーメン。 (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)
あらゆる恵みに満ちた神、すなわち、あなたがたをキリストにあってその永遠の栄光の中に招き入れてくださった神ご自身が、あなたがたをしばらくの苦しみのあとで完全にし、堅く立たせ、強くし、不動の者としてくださいます。 (aiōnios g166)
[I pray/desire that] he will [rule] powerfully forever. (May it be so!/Amen!) (aiōn g165)
どうか、神のご支配が世々限りなくありますように。アーメン。 (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)
このようにあなたがたは、私たちの主であり救い主であるイエス・キリストの永遠の御国にはいる恵みを豊かに加えられるのです。 (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)
神は、罪を犯した御使いたちを、容赦せず、地獄に引き渡し、さばきの時まで暗やみの穴の中に閉じ込めてしまわれました。 (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)
私たちの主であり救い主であるイエス・キリストの恵みと知識において成長しなさい。このキリストに、栄光が、今も永遠の日に至るまでもありますように。アーメン。 (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)
――このいのちが現われ、私たちはそれを見たので、そのあかしをし、あなたがたにこの永遠のいのちを伝えます。すなわち、御父とともにあって、私たちに現わされた永遠のいのちです。―― (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)
世と世の欲は滅び去ります。しかし、神のみこころを行なう者は、いつまでもながらえます。 (aiōn g165)
And what God told us is that [he will cause us] to live forever! (aiōnios g166)
それがキリストご自身の私たちにお与えになった約束であって、永遠のいのちです。 (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)
兄弟を憎む者はみな、人殺しです。いうまでもなく、だれでも人を殺す者のうちに、永遠のいのちがとどまっていることはないのです。 (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)
そのあかしとは、神が私たちに永遠のいのちを与えられたということ、そしてこのいのちが御子のうちにあるということです。 (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)
私が神の御子の名を信じているあなたがたに対してこれらのことを書いたのは、あなたがたが永遠のいのちを持っていることを、あなたがたによくわからせるためです。 (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)
しかし、神の御子が来て、真実な方を知る理解力を私たちに与えてくださったことを知っています。それで私たちは、真実な方のうちに、すなわち御子イエス・キリストのうちにいるのです。この方こそ、まことの神、永遠のいのちです。 (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)
このことは、私たちのうちに宿る真理によることです。そして真理はいつまでも私たちとともにあります。 (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)
また、主は、自分の領域を守らず、自分のおるべき所を捨てた御使いたちを、大いなる日のさばきのために、永遠の束縛をもって、暗やみの下に閉じ込められました。 (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)
また、ソドム、ゴモラおよび周囲の町々も彼らと同じように、好色にふけり、不自然な肉欲を追い求めたので、永遠の火の刑罰を受けて、みせしめにされています。 (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)
自分の恥のあわをわき立たせる海の荒波、さまよう星です。まっ暗なやみが、彼らのために永遠に用意されています。 (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)
神の愛のうちに自分自身を保ち、永遠のいのちに至らせる、私たちの主イエス・キリストのあわれみを待ち望みなさい。 (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)
すなわち、私たちの救い主である唯一の神に、栄光、尊厳、支配、権威が、私たちの主イエス・キリストを通して、永遠の先にも、今も、また世々限りなくありますように。アーメン。 (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)
また、私たちを王国とし、ご自分の父である神のために祭司としてくださった方である。キリストに栄光と力とが、とこしえにあるように。アーメン。 (aiōn g165)
The living [creatures praise], honor [DOU], and thank the one who sits on the throne, the one who lives forever. (aiōn g165)
また、これらの生き物が、永遠に生きておられる、御座に着いている方に、栄光、誉れ、感謝をささげるとき、 (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)
二十四人の長老は御座に着いている方の御前にひれ伏して、永遠に生きておられる方を拝み、自分の冠を御座の前に投げ出して言った。 (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)
また私は、天と地と、地の下と、海の上のあらゆる造られたもの、およびその中にある生き物がこう言うのを聞いた。 「御座にすわる方と、小羊とに、賛美と誉れと栄光と力が永遠にあるように。」 (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)
私は見た。見よ。青ざめた馬であった。これに乗っている者の名は死といい、そのあとにはハデスがつき従った。彼らに地上の四分の一を剣とききんと死病と地上の獣によって殺す権威が与えられた。 (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)
言った。 「アーメン。賛美と栄光と知恵と感謝と誉れと力と勢いが、永遠に私たちの神にあるように。アーメン。」 (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)
第五の御使いがラッパを吹き鳴らした。すると、私は一つの星が天から地上に落ちるのを見た。その星には底知れぬ穴を開くかぎが与えられた。 (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)
その星が、底知れぬ穴を開くと、穴から大きな炉の煙のような煙が立ち上り、太陽も空も、この穴の煙によって暗くなった。 (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)
彼らは、底知れぬ所の御使いを王にいただいている。彼の名はヘブル語でアバドンといい、ギリシヤ語でアポリュオンという。 (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)
永遠に生き、天とその中にあるもの、地とその中にあるもの、海とその中にあるものを創造された方をさして、誓った。「もはや時が延ばされることはない。 (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)
そして彼らがあかしを終えると、底知れぬ所から上って来る獣が、彼らと戦って勝ち、彼らを殺す。 (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)
第七の御使いがラッパを吹き鳴らした。すると、天に大きな声々が起こって言った。 「この世の国は私たちの主およびそのキリストのものとなった。主は永遠に支配される。」 (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)
また私は、もうひとりの御使いが中天を飛ぶのを見た。彼は、地上に住む人々、すなわち、あらゆる国民、部族、国語、民族に宣べ伝えるために、永遠の福音を携えていた。 (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)
そして、彼らの苦しみの煙は、永遠にまでも立ち上る。獣とその像とを拝む者、まただれでも獣の名の刻印を受ける者は、昼も夜も休みを得ない。 (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)
また、四つの生き物の一つが、永遠に生きておられる神の御怒りの満ちた七つの金の鉢を、七人の御使いに渡した。 (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)
あなたの見た獣は、昔いたが、今はいません。しかし、やがて底知れぬ所から上って来ます。そして彼は、ついには滅びます。地上に住む者たちで、世の初めからいのちの書に名を書きしるされていない者は、その獣が、昔はいたが、今はおらず、やがて現われるのを見て驚きます。 (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)
彼らは再び言った。「ハレルヤ。彼女の煙は永遠に立ち上る。」 (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)
また私は、御使いが底知れぬ所のかぎと大きな鎖とを手に持って、天から下って来るのを見た。 (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)
底知れぬ所に投げ込んで、そこを閉じ、その上に封印して、千年の終わるまでは、それが諸国の民を惑わすことのないようにした。サタンは、そのあとでしばらくの間、解き放されなければならない。 (Abyssos g12)
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)
[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)
海はその中にいる死者を出し、死もハデスも、その中にいる死者を出した。そして人々はおのおの自分の行ないに応じてさばかれた。 (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)
もはや夜がない。神である主が彼らを照らされるので、彼らにはともしびの光も太陽の光もいらない。彼らは永遠に王である。 (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}.

If [the things that we have taught] are not valuable and long-lasting [MET], [we will not get a reward]. We will be saved {[God] will save us} [from hell], but [that is all that we will get. We will be like a man who] escapes from a fire [without saving any of his possessions]. (questioned)
And those people who died [EUP] [while they were trusting] in Christ will go to hell. (questioned)
