< ヨハネの福音書 21 >

1 其後イエズス、又チベリアデの湖辺にて己を弟子等に現し給ひしが、其現し給ひし次第は次の如し。
Later on, Jesus showed himself again to the disciples by the Sea of Tiberias.
2 シモン、ペトロとチヂモと呼ばるるトマと、ガリレアのカナ生れなるナタナエルと、ゼベデオの子等と、尚外に二人の弟子共に在りけるに、
It was in this way: — Simon Peter, Thomas, who was called ‘The Twin,’ Nathanael of Cana in Galilee, Zebediah’s sons, and two other disciples of Jesus, were together, when Simon Peter said:
3 シモン、ペトロ、我漁に往く、と云ひしかば彼等、我等も共に往く、と云ひて、皆出行きて船に乗りしに、其夜は何をも獲ざりき。
“I am going fishing.” “We will come with you,” said the others. They went out and got into the boat, but caught nothing that night.
4 然て天明に至りてイエズス濱に立ち給へり、然りながら弟子等は其イエズスなる事を認めざれば、
Just as day was breaking, Jesus came and stood on the beach; but the disciples did not know that it was he.
5 イエズス彼等に向ひ、子等よ肴あるか、と曰ひしに彼等、無しと答へたり。
“My children,” he said, “have you anything to eat?” “No,” they answered.
6 イエズス、網を船の右に下せ、然らば獲物あらん、と曰ひければ、彼等下したるに、魚夥しくして、網を引くこと能はざれば、
“Cast your net to the right of the boat,” he said, “and you will find fish.” So they cast the net, and now they could not haul it in on account of the quantity of fish.
7 イエズスの愛し給へる彼弟子ペトロに向ひて、主なり、と云ひしをシモン、ペトロ、主なりと聞くや、裸なりければ上衣を纏ひて湖に飛入り、
Upon this the disciple whom Jesus loved said to Peter: “It is the Master!” When Simon Peter heard that it was the Master, he fastened his coat round him (for he had taken it off), and threw himself into the Sea.
8 他の弟子等は魚の満てる網を引きつつ船にて來れり、陸を距る事遠からず、凡そ五十間許なりければなり。
But the rest of the disciples came in the boat (for they were only about a hundred yards from shore), dragging the net full of fish.
9 陸に上りて見れば既に炭火ありて、其上に一の魚の乗せられたるあり、又麪ありき。
When they had come ashore, they found a charcoal fire ready, with some fish already on it, and some bread as well.
10 イエズス彼等に向ひ、汝等が今獲りたる魚を持來れと曰ひしかば、
“Bring some of the fish which you have just caught,” said Jesus.
11 シモン、ペトロ乗りて、大なる魚百五十三尾まで充満たる網を陸に引來りしが、斯くまで夥しかりしかど網は裂けざりき。
So Simon Peter got into the boat and hauled the net ashore full of large fish, a hundred and fifty-three of them; and yet, although there were so many, the net had not been torn.
12 イエズス彼等に、來りて食せよ、と曰ひしに、弟子等其主なることを知りて、汝は誰ぞと敢て問ふ者一人もなかりしが、
And Jesus said to them: “Come and breakfast.” Not one of the disciples ventured to ask him who he was, knowing that it was the Master.
13 イエズス近づき給ひ、麪を取りて彼等に與へ、魚も亦同じ様にし給へり。
Jesus went and took the bread and gave it to them, and the fish too.
14 イエズスが死者の中より復活して、其弟子等に現れ給ひしは是にて既に三度目なりき。
This was the third time that Jesus showed himself to the disciples after he had risen from the dead.
15 然て彼等食したるに、イエズスシモン、ペトロに曰ひけるは、ヨハネの[子]シモン、汝は此人々に優りて我を愛するか、と。彼、主よ、然り、我が汝を愛するは汝の知り給ふ所なり、と云ひしかばイエズス、我羔を牧せよ、と曰へり。
When breakfast was over, Jesus said to Simon Peter: “Simon, son of John, do you love me more than the others?” “Yes, Master,” he answered, “you know that I am your friend.” “Feed my lambs,” said Jesus.
16 又再び、ヨハネの[子]シモン、汝は我を愛するか、と曰ひしに、彼、主よ、然り、我が汝を愛するは汝の知り給ふ所なり、と云ひしかばイエズス我羔を牧せよ、と曰へり。
Then, a second time, Jesus asked: “Simon, son of John, do you love me?” “Yes, Master,” he answered, “you know that I am your friend.” “Tend my sheep,” said Jesus.
17 三度之に向ひて、ヨハネの[子]シモン、汝は我を愛するか、と曰ひしかば、ペトロは、我を愛するかと三度まで言はれたるを憂ひしが、主よ、萬事を知り給へり、我が汝を愛するは汝の知り給ふ所なり、と云ひしに、イエズス之に曰ひけるは、我羊を牧せよ。
The third time, Jesus said to him: “Simon, son of John, are you my friend?” Peter was hurt at his third question being ‘Are you my friend?’; and exclaimed: “Master, you know everything! You can tell that I am your friend.” “Feed my sheep,” said Jesus.
18 誠に實に汝に告ぐ、汝若かりし時、自ら帯して好む處を歩み居たりしが、老いたらん後は手を伸べん、而して他の者汝に帯して、其好まざる處に導かん、と。
“In truth I tell you,” he continued, “when you were young, you used to put on your own girdle, and walk wherever you wished; but, when you have grown old, you will have to stretch out your hands, while some one else puts on your girdle, and takes you where you do not wish.”
19 是ペトロが如何なる死を遂げて神に光榮あらしむべきかを示して曰ひしなり。然て之を曰ひ果てて、我に從へ、とペトロが曰ひしが、
Jesus said this to show the death by which Peter was to honour God, and then he added: “Follow me.”
20 ペトロ回顧りてイエズスの愛し居給ひし彼弟子、即ち晩餐の時イエズスの御胸に横はりて、主よ汝を付す者は誰なるぞ、と云ひし弟子の從へるを見たり。
Peter turned round, and saw the disciple whom Jesus loved following — the one who at the supper leant back on the Master’s shoulder, and asked him who it was that would betray him.
21 ペトロ之を見てイエズスに向ひ、主よ、彼は如何に、と云ひしに、
Seeing him, Peter said to Jesus: “Master, what about this man?”
22 イエズスペトロに曰ひけるは、我が來るまでに彼の留らん事を命ずとも、汝に於て何かあらん、汝は我に從へ、と。
“If it is my will that he should wait till I come,” answered Jesus, “what has that to do with you? Follow me yourself.”
23 然れば彼弟子死せずとの説兄弟等の中に傳はりしが、彼死せず、とイエズスのペトロに曰ひしには非ず、唯我が來るまで彼の留らん事を命ずとも、汝に於て何かあらん、と曰ひしのみ。
So the report spread among the Brethren that that disciple was not to die; yet Jesus did not say that he was not to die, but said “If it is my will that he should wait till I come, what has that to do with you?”
24 此等の事に就きて證明し、此等の事を書きし人は、即ち彼弟子にして、我等は其證明の眞實なる事を知る。
It is this disciple who states these things, and who recorded them; and we know that his statement is true.
25 然れどイエズスの為し給ひし事尚此他にも夥しく、若之を一々書記さば、我思ふに書記すべき書籍は、世界すらも載盡すこと能はざるべし。
There are many other things which Jesus did; but, if every one of them were to be recorded in detail, I suppose that even the world itself would not hold the books that would be written.
