ルカの福音書 4
1 イエズス、聖霊に満ちてヨルダン[河]より歸り、聖霊によりて荒野に導かれ、
On returning from the Jordan, full of the Holy Spirit, Jesus was led by the power of the Spirit through the Wilderness for forty days, tempted by the Devil.
2 四十日の間[留りて]惡魔に試みられ居給ひしが、此間何をも食し給はず、日數満ちて飢ゑ給へり。
All that time he ate nothing; and, when it was over, he became hungry.
3 惡魔イエズスに向ひ、汝若神の子ならば、此石に命じて麪とならしめよ、と云ひしかば、
So the Devil said to him: “If you are God’s Son, tell this stone to become a loaf of bread.”
4 イエズス答へ給ひけるは、録して「人の活くるは、麪のみに由らず、又神の凡ての言に由る」とあり、と。
And Jesus answered him: “Scripture says — ‘It is not on bread alone that man is to live.’”
5 惡魔之を高き山に携へ行き、寸時に世界の國々を示して、
And the Devil led Jesus up, and showing him in a single moment all the kingdoms of the earth, said to him:
6 云ひけるは、我此所有権力と國々の榮華とを汝に與へん。蓋是等のもの我に任せられて、我は我が好む者に之を與ふ。
“I will give you all this power, and the splendour of them; for it has been given into my hands and I give it to whom I wish.
7 故に汝若我前に禮拝せば、是等悉く汝の有と成るべし。
If you, therefore, will do homage before me, it shall all be yours.”
8 イエズス答へて曰ひけるは、録して「汝の神たる主を拝し、是にのみ事へよ」とあり、と。
And Jesus answered him: “Scripture says — ‘Thou shalt do homage to the Lord thy God, and worship him only.’”
9 惡魔又イエズスをエルサレムに携へ、[神]殿の頂に立たせて云ひけるは、汝若神の子ならば、此處より身を投げよ、
The Devil next led him into Jerusalem, and, placing him on the parapet of the Temple, said: “If you are God’s Son throw yourself down from here,
10 其は録して「神其使等に命じて、汝を守らせ給ひ、
for Scripture says — ‘He will give his angels commands about thee, to guard thee safely,’
11 汝の足の石に突當らざる様、彼等手にて汝を支へん」とあればなり。
And ‘On their hands they will upbear thee, Lest ever thou shouldst strike thy foot against a stone.’”
12 イエズス答へ給ひけるは、録して「汝の神たる主を試むべからず」とあり、と。
But Jesus answered him: “It is said — ‘Thou shalt not tempt the Lord thy God.’”
13 凡ての試終りて、惡魔一時イエズスを離れたり。
When he had tried every kind of temptation, the Devil left Jesus, till another opportunity.
14 第一款 十二使徒選定以前の事實 第二項 イエズスガリレアに布教し給ふ イエズス[聖]霊の能力によりてガリレアに歸り給ひしに、其名聲全地方に広まり、
Moved by the power of the Spirit, Jesus returned to Galilee. Reports about him spread through all that neighbourhood;
15 所々の會堂にて教へ給ひ、凡ての人に崇められ給ひつつありき。
and he began to teach in their Synagogues, and was honoured by everyone.
16 然て曾て育てられ給ひしナザレトの地に至り、安息日に當りて例の如く會堂に入り、読まんとて立ち給ひしに、
Coming to Nazareth, where he had been brought up, Jesus, as was his custom, went on the Sabbath into the Synagogue, and stood up to read the Scriptures.
17 預言者イザヤの書を付され、之を開きて次の如く録されたる處に見當り給へり。
The book given him was that of the Prophet Isaiah; and Jesus opened the book and found the place where it says —
18 「主の霊我上に在せば、我に注油して遣はし給ひ、貧者に福音を宣べしめ、心の砕けたるたる人を醫さしめ、
‘The Spirit of the Lord is upon me, For he has consecrated me to bring Good News to the poor, He has sent me to proclaim release to captives and restoration of sight to the blind, To set the oppressed at liberty,
19 虜には免を、瞽者には見ゆる事を告げしめ、壓へられたる人を解きて自由ならしめ、主の喜ばしき年及報の日を告げしめ給ふ」と。
to proclaim the accepted year of the Lord.’
20 イエズス書を巻きて役員に還し、然て坐し給ひしかば、堂内の人皆之に注目し居たり。
Then, closing the book and returning it to the attendant, he sat down. The eyes of all in the Synagogue were fixed upon him,
21 イエズス先彼等に向ひて、此書は今日汝等の耳に成就せり、と説出し給ひしかば、
and Jesus began: “This very day this passage has been fulfilled in your hearing.”
22 人皆彼を證明し、其口より出づる麗しき言に驚きて、是ヨゼフの子に非ずや、と云ひければ、
All who were present spoke well of him, and were astonished at the beautiful words that fell from his lips. “Is not he Joseph’s son?” they asked.
23 イエズス彼等に曰ひけるは、汝等必ず我に、醫者自らを醫せとの諺を引きて、汝がカファルナウムにて為せりと我等の聞ける程の事を、己が故郷なる此處にも為せ、と云はん、と。
“Doubtless,” said Jesus, “you will remind me of the saying — ‘Doctor, cure yourself;’ and you will say ‘Do here in your own country all that we have heard that has been done at Capernaum.’
24 又曰ひけるは、我誠に汝等に告ぐ、預言者にして、其故郷に歓迎せらるる者はあらず。
I tell you,” he continued, “that no Prophet is acceptable in his own country.
25 我誠に汝等に告ぐ、エリアの時、三年六箇月の間、天閉ぢて全地上に大飢饉ありしに、イスラエルの中に多くの寡婦ありしかど、
There were, doubtless, many widows in Israel in Elijah’s days, when the heavens were closed for three years and six months, and a severe famine prevailed throughout the country;
26 エリアは其中の一人にも遣はされず、唯シドンのサレプタの一人の寡婦にのみ遣はされたり、
and yet it was not to one of them that Elijah was sent, but to a widow at Zarephath in Sidonia.
27 又預言者エリゼオの時、イスラエルの中に多くの癩病者ありしかど、シリア人ナアマンの外は、其中一人も潔くせられざりき、と。
And there were many lepers in Israel in the time of the Prophet Elisha, yet it was not one of them who was made clean, but Naaman the Syrian.”
28 堂内の人々之を聞きて、皆怒に堪へず、
All the people in the Synagogue, as they listened to this, became enraged.
29 起ちてイエズスを町より逐出し、其町の立てる山の断崖に連行き、投落さんとせしかども、
Starting up, they drove Jesus out of the town, and led him to the brow of the hill on which their town stood, intending to hurl him down.
30 イエズスは彼等の中を通りて歩み居給へり。
But he passed through the middle of the crowd and went on his way.
31 斯てガリレアの町なるカファルナウムに下り、安息日毎に教へ給ひけるに、
Then Jesus went down to Capernaum, a city in Galilee. On the Sabbath he taught the people.
32 其語り給ふ所権威を帯びたるにより、人々其教に驚き居たり。
They were amazed at his teaching, because his words were spoken with authority.
33 茲に會堂の内に汚鬼に憑かれたる人ありて、聲高く叫びて云ひけるは、
In the Synagogue there was a man with the spirit of a foul demon in him, who called out loudly:
34 ナザレトのイエズスよ、我等を措け、我等と汝と何の関係かあらん。我等を亡さんとて來り給へるか。我汝の誰なるかを知れり、即神の聖なる者なり、と。
“Stop! What do you want with us, Jesus of Nazareth? Have you come to destroy us? I know who you are — the Holy One of God!”
35 イエズス之を責めて、黙せよ、此人より出でよ、と曰ひしかば、惡鬼其人を中央に投倒し、少しも害を加へずして彼より出でたり。
But Jesus rebuked the demon. “Be silent! Come out from him,” he said. The demon flung the man down in the middle of the people, and then came out from him, without causing him further harm.
36 是に於て人々大に驚き怖れ、是は何事ぞ、彼権威と能力とを以て汚鬼等に命じ給へば、即ち出づるよ、と語合ひ、
And they were all lost in amazement, and kept saying to one another: “What words are these? For he gives his commands to the foul spirits with a marvellous authority, and they come out.”
37 イエズスの名聲、彼地方到處に広まり行きたり。
And rumours about Jesus traveled through every place in the neighbourhood.
38 イエズス會堂を立出でて、シモンの家に入り給ひしに、シモンの姑重き熱を煩ひ居りしを、
On leaving the Synagogue, Jesus went into Simon’s house. Now Simon’s mother-in-law was suffering from a severe attack of fever, and they asked Jesus to cure her.
39 人々彼の為に願ひければ、イエズス其傍に立ちて熱に命じ給ふや、熱去りて、彼直に起きて彼等に給仕したり。
Bending over her, he rebuked the fever; the fever left her, and she immediately got up and began to wait upon them.
40 日没りて後、種々の患者を有てる人々、皆之をイエズスの許に連來りければ、一々按手して之を醫し居給へり。
At sunset, all who had friends suffering from various diseases took them to Jesus; and he placed his hands upon every one of them and cured them.
41 又惡魔多くの人より出でて、叫びつつ、汝は神の子なり、と云ひければ、イエズス之を誡めて、言ふ事を許し給はざりき、蓋惡魔は其キリストたる事を知ればなり。
And even demons came out from many people, screaming ‘You are the Son of God.’ Jesus rebuked them, and would not allow them to speak, because they knew that he was the Christ.
42 夜明けて後、イエズス出でて寂しき處に往き給ひしに、群衆尋ねて其許に至り、己等を離れざらしめんとて引止めければ、
At daybreak, Jesus went out and walked to a lonely spot. But crowds of people began to look for him; and they came to where he was and tried to detain him and prevent his leaving them.
43 イエズス彼等に曰ひけるは、我は又他の町にも神の國の福音を宣傳へざるべからず、我は是が為に遣はされたればなり、と。
Jesus, however, said to them: “I must take the Good News of the Kingdom of God to the other town also, for that was why I was sent.”
44 斯てガリレアの諸會堂にて説教しつつ居給へり。
And he continued to make his proclamation in the Synagogues of Judea.
