コリント人への手紙第一 6

1 汝 等のうち互に事あるとき、之を聖徒の前に訴へずして、正しからぬ者の前に訴ふることを敢へてする者あらんや。

DARE any of you, having a matter of controversy with another, sue for judgment before the unjust, and not before the saints?

2 汝ら知らぬか、聖徒は世を審くべき者なるを。世もし汝らに審かれんには、汝ら最 小き事を審くに足らぬ者ならんや。

Know ye not that the saints shall judge the world? and if the world shall be judged by you, are ye unworthy to be judges in the smallest matters?

3 なんぢら知らぬか、我らは御使を審くべき者なるを、ましてこの世の事をや。

Know ye not that we shall judge angels, much more things pertaining to this life?

4 然るに汝ら審くべき此の世の事のあるとき、教會にて輕しむる所の者を審判の座に坐らしむるか。

If then ye have disputes about the things of this life, do you seat those on the bench who are least esteemed in the church?

5 わが斯く言ふは汝らを辱しめんとてなり。汝 等のうちに兄弟の間のことを審き得る智きもの一人だになく、

I speak to you to shame you. Is it so, that there is not among you a wise man? Not so much as one who is able to judge between one brother and another?

6 兄弟は兄弟を、而も不 信者の前に訴ふるか。

But brother goes to law with brother, and this before the unbelievers.

7 互に相 訴ふるは既に當しく汝らの失態なり。何 故むしろ不義を受けぬか、何 故むしろ欺かれぬか。

Now verily therefore there is altogether a fault among you, because ye have law-suits one with another. Why do ye not rather submit to the wrong? Why do ye not rather suffer yourselves to be defrauded?

8 然るに汝ら不義をなし、詐欺をなし、兄弟にも之を爲す。

But ye do wrong and defraud, and that the brethren.

9 汝ら知らぬか、正しからぬ者の神の國を嗣ぐことなきを。自ら欺くな、淫行のもの、偶像を拜むもの、姦淫をなすもの、男娼となるもの、男色を行ふ者、

Know ye not that the unrighteous shall not inherit the kingdom of God? Be not deceived; neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor effeminate, nor sodomites,

10 盜するもの、貪欲のもの、酒に醉ふもの、罵るもの、奪ふ者などは、みな神の國を嗣ぐことなきなり。

nor thieves, nor the covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor extortioners, shall inherit the kingdom of God.

11 汝 等のうち曩には斯くのごとき者ありしかど、主イエス・キリストの名により、我らの神の御靈によりて、己を洗ひかつ潔められ、かつ義とせらるることを得たり。

Yet such were some of you: but ye have been washed, but ye have been sanctified, but ye have been justified in the name of the Lord Jesus, and by the spirit of our God.

12 一切のもの我に可からざるなし、然れど一切のもの益あるにあらず。一切のもの我に可からざるなし、されど我は何 物にも支配せられず、

All things are lawful for me, but all things are not expedient; all things are lawful for me, but I will not put myself under the power of any.

13 食物は腹のため、腹は食物のためなり。されど神は之をも彼をも亡し給はん。身は淫行をなさん爲にあらず、主の爲なり、主はまた身の爲なり。

Meats are for the belly, and the belly for meats; but God will destroy both it and them. Now the body is not for whoredom, but for the Lord, and the Lord for the body.

14 神は既に主を甦へらせ給へり、又その能力をもて我等をも甦へらせ給はん。

And God hath both raised up the Lord, and will raise us up by his own power.

15 汝らの身はキリストの肢體なるを知らぬか、然らばキリストの肢體をとりて遊女の肢體となすべきか、決して然すべからず。

Know ye not that your bodies are the members of Christ? Taking then the members of Christ, shall I make them members of an harlot? God forbid.

16 遊女につく者は彼と一つ體となることを知らぬか『二人のもの一體となるべし』と言ひ給へり。

Do you not know that he that is joined to an harlot is one body with her? For they two, saith he, shall be “one flesh.”

17 主につく者は之と一つ靈となるなり。

But he that is joined to the Lord is one spirit.

18 淫行を避けよ。人のをかす罪はみな身の外にあり、されど淫行をなす者は己が身を犯すなり。

Flee whoredom. Every other sin which a man may commit is without the body; but he who committeth whoredom sinneth against his own body.

19 汝らの身は、その内にある神より受けたる聖 靈の宮にして、汝らは己の者にあらざるを知らぬか。

Do ye not know that your body is the temple of the Holy Ghost, which is in you, which ye have from God, and ye are not your own?

20 汝らは價をもて買はれたる者なり、然らばその身をもて神の榮光を顯せ。

For ye have been bought with a price: glorify then God in your body, and in your spirit, which are God’s.
