Luke 3
1 Now in the fifteenth year of the reign of Tiberius Cesar, Pontius Pilate being governor of Judea, and Herod being tetrarch of Galilee, and his brother Philip tetrarch of Iturea and of the region of Trachonitis, and Lysanius the tetrarch of Abilene,
第一款 洗者ヨハネの先駆 チベリオ、セザルの在位の十五年、ポンシオ、ピラトはユデアの総督たり、ヘロデはガリレア分國の王たり、其兄弟フィリッポはイチュレア及トラコニト地方分國の王たり、リサニアはアビリナ分國の王たり、
2 Annas and Caiaphas being the high priests, the word of God came to John the son of Zacharias in the wilderness.
アンナとカイファとは司祭長たりし時、ザカリアの子ヨハネ、荒野に在りて主の御言を蒙り、
3 And he came into all the country about Jordan, preaching the baptism of repentance, for the remission of sins;
ヨルダン[河]の全地方を巡りて、罪の赦を得させん為に、改心の洗禮を宣傳へたり。
4 As it is written in the book of the words of Isaiah the prophet, saying, The voice of one crying in the wilderness, Prepare ye the way of the Lord, make his paths straight.
預言者イザヤの言の書に録して「荒野に呼はる者の聲ありて曰く、汝等主の道を備へ、其徑を直くせよ。
5 Every valley shall be filled, and every mountain and hill shall be brought low; and the crooked shall be made straight, and the rough ways [shall be] made smooth;
凡ての谷は填められ、凡ての山丘は坦され、曲れるは直くせられ、険しき處は平なる路となり、
6 And all flesh shall see the salvation of God.
人皆神の救を見ん」とあるに違はず。
7 Then said he to the multitude that came forth to be baptized by him, O generation of vipers, who hath warned you to flee from the wrath to come?
然てヨハネ、己に洗せられんとて出來れる群衆に云ひけるは、蝮の裔よ、來るべき怒を遁るる事を、誰か汝等に教へしぞ。
8 Bring forth therefore fruits worthy of repentance, and begin not to say within yourselves, We have Abraham for [our] father: for I say to you, that God is able of these stones to raise up children to Abraham.
然れば改心の相當なる果を結べよ。又我等の父にアブラハム在りと云はんとすること勿れ。蓋我汝等に告ぐ、神は是等の石よりアブラハムの為に子等を起すことを得給ふ。
9 And now also the ax is laid to the root of the trees: every tree therefore which bringeth not forth good fruit, is hewn down, and cast into the fire.
既に斧樹の根に置かれたり。故に総て善き果を結ばざる樹は、伐られて火に投入れらるべし、と。
10 And the people asked him, saying, What shall we do then?
群衆ヨハネに問ひて、然らば我等何を為すべきぞ、と云ひければ、
11 He answereth and saith to them, He that hath two coats, let him impart to him that hath none; and he that hath provisions, let him do likewise.
彼答へて、二枚の肌着を有てる人は有たぬ人に與へよ、食物を有てる人も同じ様にせよ、と云ひ居たり。
12 Then came also publicans to be baptized, and said to him, Master, what shall we do?
又税吏ありて、洗せられんとて來り、師よ、我等何を為すべきぞ、と云ひしかば、
13 And he said to them, Exact no more than that which is appointed you.
ヨハネ彼等に向ひ、汝等は定まりたる物の外、何をも取ること勿れ、と云へり。
14 And the soldiers likewise asked him, saying, And what shall we do? And he said to them, Do violence to no man, neither accuse [any] falsely, and be content with your wages.
兵卒も亦之に問ひて、我等は何を為すべきぞ、と云へば、ヨハネ彼等に向ひ、汝等は、誰をも悩ますこと勿れ、又讒訴すること勿れ、己が給料を以て足れりとせよ、と云へり。
15 And as the people were in expectation, and all men mused in their hearts concerning John, whether he was the Christ, or not;
人民は待佗びて、ヨハネを或はキリストならんと、皆心に推量りつつありければ、
16 John answered, saying to [them] all, I indeed baptize you with water; but one mightier than I cometh, the latchet of whose shoes I am not worthy to unloose: he will baptize you with the Holy Spirit, and with fire:
ヨハネ答へて人々に云ひけるは、實に我は水にて汝等を洗す、然れど我に優りて力或もの将に來らんとす、我は其履の紐を解くにも足らず。彼は聖霊と火とにて汝等を洗し給ふべし。
17 Whose fan [is] in his hand, and he will thoroughly cleanse his floor, and will gather the wheat into his granary; but the chaff he will burn with fire unquenchable.
彼の手に箕ありて其禾場を潔め、麦は倉に収め、殻は滅えざる火にて焼き給ふべし、と。
18 And many other things in his exhortation he preached to the people.
ヨハネ尚多くの事を人に教へて、福音を宣べ居たり。
19 But Herod the tetrarch, being reproved by him on account of Herodias, his brother Philip's wife, and for all the evils which Herod had done,
然れど分國の王ヘロデ、其兄弟の妻ヘロヂァデの事に就き、又自ら為せる凡ての惡事に就きてヨハネに諌められければ、
20 Added yet this above all, that he shut up John in prison.
諸の惡事に今一を加へてヨハネを監獄に閉籠めたりき。
21 Now when all the people were baptized, it came to pass, that Jesus also being baptized, and praying, the heaven was opened,
第二款 イエズス自身の準備 人民挙りて洗せらるる時、イエズスも洗せられて祈り給ふに、天開け、
22 And the Holy Spirit descended in a bodily shape like a dove upon him, and a voice came from heaven, which said, Thou art my beloved Son; in thee I am well pleased.
聖霊形に顕れて、鴿の如くイエズスの上に降り給ひ、又天より聲して、汝は我愛子なり、我汝によりて心を安んぜり、と曰へり。
23 And Jesus himself began to be about thirty years of age, being (as was supposed) the son of Joseph, who was [the son] of Heli,
