< Revelation 18 >

1 And after that I sawe another angell come from heven havinge gret power and the erth was lyghtned with hys bryghtnes.
この後また他の一人の御使の大なる權威を有ちて天より降るを見しに、地はその榮光によりて照されたり。
2 And he cryed myghtyly with a stronge voyce sayinge: Great Babilon is fallen ys fallen and ys become the habitation of devels and the holde of all fowle sprettes and a cage of all vnclene and hatefull byrdes
かれ強き聲にて呼はりて言ふ『大なるバビロンは倒れたり、倒れたり、かつ惡魔の住家、もろもろの穢れたる靈の檻、もろもろの穢れたる憎むべき鳥の檻となれり。
3 for all nacions have dronken of the wyne of the wrath of her fornycacion. And the kynges of the erth have committed fornicacion with her and her marchauntes are wexed ryche of the abundance of her pleasures.
もろもろの國人はその淫行の憤恚の葡萄酒を飮み、地の王たちは彼と淫をおこなひ、地の商人らは彼の奢の勢力によりて富みたればなり』
4 And I herde another voyce from heven saye: come a waye from her my people that ye be not parttakers in her synnes that ye receave not of her plages.
また天より他の聲あるを聞けり。曰く『わが民よ、かれの罪に干らず、彼の苦難を共に受けざらんため、その中を出でよ。
5 For her synnes are gon vp to heven and God hath remembred her wyckednes.
かれの罪は積りて天にいたり、神その不義を憶え給ひたればなり。
6 Rewarde her even as she rewarded you and geve her dubble accordynge to her workes. And poure in dubble to her in the same cuppe which she fylled vnto you.
彼が爲しし如く彼に爲し、その行爲に應じ倍して之を報い、かれが酌み與へし酒杯に倍して之に酌み與へよ。
7 And as moche as she gloryfied her silfe and lyved wantanly so moche poure ye in for her of punysshment and sorowe for she sayde in her herte: I sytt beinge a quene and am no wyddowe and shall se no sorowe.
かれが自ら尊びみづから奢りしと同じほどの苦難と悲歎とを之に與へよ。彼は心のうちに「われは女王の位に坐する者にして寡婦にあらず、決して悲歎を見ざるべし」と言ふ。
8 Therfore shall her plages come at one daye deeth and sorowe and honger and she shallbe brent with fyre: for stronge ys the lorde god which iudgeth her.
この故に、さまざまの苦難、一日のうちに彼の身にきたらん、即ち死と悲歎と饑饉となり。彼また火にて燒き盡されん、彼を審きたまふ主なる神は強ければなり。
9 And the kynges of the erth shalbe wepe her and wayle over her which have committed fornicacion with her and have lyved wantanly with her when they shall se the smoke of her burnynge
彼と淫をおこなひ、彼とともに奢りたる地の王たちは、其の燒かるる煙を見て泣きかつ歎き、
10 and shall stonde a farre of for feare of her punnysshment sayinge: Alas Alas that gret cite Babilon that myghty cite: For at won houre is her iudgment come.
その苦難を懼れ、遙に立ちて「禍害なるかな、禍害なるかな、大なる都、堅固なる都バビロンよ、汝の審判は時の間に來れり」と言はん。
11 And the marchauntes of the erth shall wepe and wayle in them selves for no man wyll bye their ware eny more
地の商人かれが爲に泣き悲しまん。今より後その商品を買ふ者なければなり。
12 the ware of golde and silver and precious stones nether of pearle and raynes and purple and skarlet and all thyne wodde and almanner vessels of yvery and almanner vessels of most precious wodde and of brasse and of yron
その商品は金・銀・寶石・眞珠・細布・紫色・絹・緋色および各樣の香木、また象牙のさまざまの器、價 貴き木、眞鍮・鐵・蝋石などの各樣の器、
13 and synamon and odours and oyntmentes and frankynsence and wyne and oyle and fyne floure and wheate bestes and shepe and horsys and charrettes and boddyes and soules of men.
また肉桂・香料・香・香 油・乳香・葡萄酒・オリブ油・麥粉・麥・牛・羊・馬・車・奴隷および人の靈魂なり。
14 And the apples that thy soule lusted after are departed fro the. And all thynges which were deyntie and had in pryce ar departed fro the and thou shalt fynde them no more.
なんぢの靈魂の嗜みたる果物は汝を去り、すべての美味、華美なる物は亡びて汝を離れん、今より後これを見ること無かるべし。
15 The marchauntes of these thynges which were wexed ryche shall stonde a farre of from her for feare of the punyshment of her wepynge and waylynge
これらの物を商ひ、バビロンに由りて富を得たる商人らは、其の苦難を懼れて遙に立ち、泣き悲しみて言はん、
16 and saying: alas alas that grett cite that was clothed in raynes and purple and scarlett and decked with golde and precious stone and pearles:
「禍害なるかな、禍害なるかな、細布と紫色と緋とを著、金・寶石・眞珠をもて身を飾りたる大なる都、
17 for at one houre so great ryches ys come to nought And every shippe governer and all they that occupied shippes and shippmen which worke in the see stode a farre of
斯ばかり大なる富の時の間に荒涼ばんとは」而して凡ての船 長、すべて海をわたる人々、舟子および海によりて生活を爲すもの遙かに立ち、
18 and cryed when they sawe the smoke of her burnynge sayinge what cite is lyke vnto this grett cite?
バビロンの燒かるる煙を見て叫び「いづれの都か、この大なる都に比ぶべき」と言はん。
19 And they cast dust on their heddes and cryed wepynge and waylinge and sayed: Alas Alas yt greate cite wherin were made ryche all that had shyppes in the see by the reason of her costlynes for atone houre is she made desolate
彼 等また塵をおのが首に被りて泣き悲しみ叫びて「禍害なるかな、禍害なるかな、此の大なる都、その奢によりて海に船を有てる人々の富を得たる都、かく時の間に荒涼ばんとは」と言はん。
20 Reioyce over her thou heven and ye holy Apostles and prophetes: for god hath geven youre iudgment on her.
天よ、聖徒・使徒・預言者よ、この都につきて喜べ、神なんぢらの爲に之を審き給ひたればなり』
21 And a myghty angell toke vp a stone lyke a grett mylstone and cast it into the see sayinge: with suche violence shall that gret cite Babilon be cast and shallbe founde no more.
ここに一人の強き御使、大なる碾臼のごとき石を擡げ海に投げて言ふ『おほいなる都バビロンは斯くのごとく烈しく撃ち倒されて、今より後 見えざるべし。
22 And the voyce of harpers and musicions and of pypers and trompetters shalbe herde no more in the: and no craftes man of whatsoever craft he be shalbe founde eny more in the. and the soude of a myll shalbe herde no more in the
今よりのち立琴を彈くもの、樂を奏するもの、笛を吹く者、ラッパを鳴す者の聲なんぢの中に聞えず、今より後さまざまの細工をなす細工人なんぢの中に見えず、碾臼の音なんぢの中に聞えず、
23 and the voyce of the brydegrome and of the bryde shalbe herde no more in the: for thy marchauntes were ye grett men of ye erth. And with thyne inchantment were deceaved all nacions:
今よりのち燈火の光なんぢの中に輝かず、今よりのち新郎・新婦の聲なんぢの中に聞えざるべし。そは汝の商人は地の大臣となり、諸種の國人はなんぢの咒術に惑され、
24 and in her was founde the bloude of the prophettes and of ye saynctes and of all that were slayne apon ye erth.
また預言者・聖徒および凡て地の上に殺されし者の血は、この都の中に見出されたればなり』
