< ヘブル人への手紙 10 >

1 抑律法は、将來の恵の影のみを有して、事物の眞の像を有せざるが故に、毎年絶えず同じ犠牲を献げて、祭壇に近づく人々を完全ならしむる事は、決して能はざるなり。
For the Law, having a shadow of the good to come, not the very image of the things, can never with the same sacrifices year by year, which they offer continually, make perfect those who draw near.
2 然らずんば、祭る人々一旦潔められては、復罪の意識なかるべければ、祭を献ぐる事止むべかりしなり。
Or else would not they have ceased to be offered, because the worshippers, having been once cleansed, would have had no more consciousness of sins?
3 然れど彼祭に於て年々罪を紀念するは、
But in those sacrifices there is yearly reminder of sins.
4 牡牛と牡山羊との血を以てしては罪を除く事能はざるが故なり。
For it is impossible that the blood of bulls and goats should take away sins.
5 然ればキリスト世に入り給ひし時曰ひけるは、「主よ、犠牲と献物とを否みて肉體を我に備へ給へり、
Therefore when he comes into the world, he says, "Sacrifice and offering you did not desire, but a body you prepared for me.
6 燔祭と罪祭とは御心に適はざりしを以て、
Whole burnt offerings and sin-offerings you took no pleasure in.
7 我言へらく、看給へ、巻物の初に我に就きて録したれば、神よ、我は御旨を行はん為に來れり」、と。
Then I said, 'Look, I have come. It is written about me in the scroll of a book; to do your will, God.'"
8 然て初には、「主よ、犠牲と献物と燔祭と罪祭とを否み給ひて、律法に從ひて献げらるるものは御意に適はざりき」、と曰ひて、
Previously saying, "Sacrifices and offerings and whole burnt offerings and sin-offerings you did not desire, nor took pleasure in" (which are offered according to the Law),
9 後には「神よ、看給へ、我は御旨を行はん為に來れり」、と曰へば、是初の事を廃して其次の事を立て給ふなり、
then he said, "Look, I have come to do your will." He takes away the first, that he may establish the second,
10 此御旨の故にこそ、イエズス、キリストの御體が一度献げられしに由りて、我等は聖と為られしなれ。
by which will we have been sanctified through the offering of the body of Jesus Christ once for all.
11 然て司祭は、総て日々に立ちて聖役を行ひ、何時も罪を除く能はざる同じ犠牲を献ぐれども、
Every priest indeed stands day by day serving and often offering the same sacrifices, which can never take away sins,
12 此大司祭は罪の為に一の犠牲を献げ給て、限なく神の御右に坐し、
but this one, when he had offered one sacrifice for sins forever, sat down on the right hand of God;
13 斯て敵の己が足台と為られん事を待ち給ふなり。
from that time waiting until his enemies are made the footstool of his feet.
14 其は聖と為られたる人々を、一の献物を以て限なく全うし給ひたればなり、
For by one offering he has perfected forever those who are being sanctified.
15 聖霊も亦之を我等に證し給ふ。蓋前には、
The Holy Spirit also testifies to us, for after saying,
16 「主曰はく、彼日の後我が立てんとする約は斯なり、我律法を彼等の心に與へ、之を其精神に録さん」、と曰ひて後、
"This is the covenant that I will make with them: 'After those days,' says the Lord, 'I will put my laws on their hearts, I will also write them on their minds.'"
17 「我最早彼等の罪と不義とを記憶せざるべし」、と曰ひしなり。
"And I will remember their sins and their iniquities no more."
18 是等の赦ありたる上は、罪の為の献物は絶えて之ある事なし。
Now where forgiveness of these is, there is no more offering for sin.
19 第一款 信仰を保ちて棄教の念に遠ざかるべし 第二編 道義的勧告 第一項 一般に渉る勧告 然れば兄弟等よ、我等はイエズスの御血により、
Having therefore, brothers, boldness to enter into the holy place by the blood of Jesus,
20 イエズスの己が肉なる幔を経て我等に開き給ひし、新にして活ける道より聖所に入るべき事を確信し、
by the way which he dedicated for us, a new and living way, through the curtain, that is to say, his flesh;
21 且神の家を司る大司祭を有する者なれば、
and having a great priest over the house of God,
22 心を惡き料簡より濯がれ、身を清き水に洗はれて、眞心と完全なる信仰とを以て之に近づき奉り、
let us draw near with a true heart in fullness of faith, having our hearts sprinkled from an evil conscience, and having our body washed with pure water,
23 確乎として我等が希望の宣言を保つべし、約し給ひし者は眞實にて在せばなり。
let us hold fast the confession of our hope without wavering; for he who promised is faithful.
24 又互に顧みて親愛と善業とを相励まし、
Let us consider how to motivate one another to love and good works,
25 或人々の為馴れたるが如くに集を缺く事なく、寧相勧めて、日の近づくを見るに随ひて愈励むべきなり。
not forsaking our own assembling together, as the custom of some is, but exhorting one another; and so much the more, as you see the Day approaching.
26 蓋我等既に眞理の知識を受けたる後、故に罪を犯さば、殘る所は最早罪を贖ふ犠牲に非ずして、
For if we sin willfully after we have received the knowledge of the truth, there remains no more a sacrifice for sins,
27 唯懼る懼る審判を待つ事と、敵對する者を焼盡すべき火の烈しさとのみ。
but a certain fearful expectation of judgment, and a fierceness of fire which will devour the adversaries.
28 モイゼの律法を破りたる人すら、二三人の證言によりて容赦なく死するなれば、
Anyone who disregards the Law of Moses dies without compassion on the word of two or three witnesses.
29 况て神の御子を蹂躪け、己が由りて以て聖と為られし約の血を蔑視し、恩寵を賜ふ聖霊に侮辱を加へたる人の受くべき刑罰の厳しさの、如何許なるかを思へ。
How much worse punishment, do you think, will he be judged worthy of, who has trodden under foot the Son of God, and has counted the blood of the covenant with which he was sanctified an unholy thing, and has insulted the Spirit of grace?
30 「復讐は我事なり、我報ゆべし」と曰ひ、又「主は其民を審判すべし」と曰ひし者の誰なるかは我等の知れる所なり。
For we know him who said, "Vengeance belongs to me; I will repay." Again, "The Lord will judge his people."
31 恐るべき哉、活き給へる神の御手に罹る事。
It is a fearful thing to fall into the hands of the living God.
32 汝等曩に照らされつつ、苦の大いなる戰を忍びたりし日を追想せよ。
But remember the former days, in which, after you were enlightened, you endured a great struggle with sufferings;
33 即ち或は侮辱と患難とを以て人の観物と為られ、或は斯る事に遇へる人々の侶と成りたりき。
partly, being exposed to insults and abuse in public, and sometimes you came to share with others who were treated in the same way.
34 蓋囚人の上をも思遣り、又己が立勝りたる永存の寳を有せるを知りて、我財産を奪はるるをも喜びて忍びたるなり。
For you both had compassion on them that were in chains, and joyfully accepted the plundering of your possessions, since you knew that you yourselves had a better possession and an enduring one.
35 然れば大いなる報を得べき汝等の希望を失ふ勿れ。
Therefore do not throw away your boldness, which has a great reward.
36 即ち神の御旨を行ひて約束のものを得ん為に、汝等に必要なるは忍耐なり。
For you need patient endurance so that, having done the will of God, you may receive the promise.
37 蓋來らんとする者は軈て來り給ふべく、延引し給ふ事あらじ。
"For in just a little while, he who is coming will come and will not delay.
38 我義人は信仰によりて活く、若自ら退かば我心に適はざるべし。
But the righteous will live by faith, and if he holds back, my soul has no pleasure in him."
39 我等は亡に至らんとして退く者に非ず、魂を得んとして信仰する者なり。
But we are not of those who shrink back to destruction, but of those who have faith to the saving of the soul.
