< ルカの福音書 8 >

1 其後イエズス、説教し且神の國の福音を宣べつつ、町々村々を巡廻し給ひければ、十二使徒之に伴ひ、
And it came to pass afterward, that he went throughout every city and village, preaching and showing the glad tidings of the kingdom of God: and the twelve were with him,
2 又曾て惡鬼を逐払はれ、病を醫されたる數人の婦人、即ち七の惡魔の其身より出でたる、マグダレナと呼ばるるマリア、
And certain women, which had been healed of evil spirits (pneuma) and infirmities, Mary called Magdalene, out of whom went seven devils,
3 ヘロデの家令クサの妻ヨハンナ及スザンナ、其他多くの婦人ありて、己が財産を以て彼等に供給し居たり。
And Joanna the wife of Chuza Herod's steward, and Susanna, and many others, which ministered unto him of their substance.
4 然て夥しき人、町々よりイエズスの許に走集りければ、イエズス喩を以て語り給ひけるは、
And when much people were gathered together, and were come to him out of every city, he spoke by a parable:
5 種播く人其種を播きに出でしが、播く時或者は路傍に落ちしかば、踏着けられ、空の鳥之を啄めり。
A sower went out to sow his seed: and as he sowed, some fell by the way side; and it was trodden down, and the fowls of the air devoured it.
6 或者は石の上に落ちしかば、生出たれど、潤なきに由りて枯れたり。
And some fell upon a rock; and as soon as it was sprung up, it withered away, because it lacked moisture.
7 或者は茨の中に落ちしかば、茨共に長ちて之を蔽塞げり。
And some fell among thorns; and the thorns sprang up with it, and choked it.
8 或者は沃壌に落ちしかば、生出でて百倍の實を結べり、と。イエズス此事を曰ひて、聞く耳を有てる人は聞け、と呼はり居給へり。
And other fell on good ground, and sprang up, and bare fruit an hundredfold. And when he had said these things, he cried, He that has ears to hear, let him hear.
9 弟子等、此喩を如何にと問ひしに、
And his disciples asked him, saying, What might this parable be?
10 曰ひけるは、汝等は神の國の奥義を知る事を賜はりたれど、他の人は喩を以てせらる、是は彼等が見つつ視えず、聞きつつ暁らざらん為なり。
And he said, Unto you it is given to know the mysteries of the kingdom of God: but to others in parables; that seeing they might not see, and hearing they might not understand.
11 此喩は斯の如し、種は神の御言なり、
Now the parable is this: The seed is the word (logos) of God.
12 路傍の者は聞く人々にして、彼等の信じて救はれざらん為、後に惡魔來りて言を其心より奪ふなり。
Those by the way side are they that hear; then comes the devil, and takes away the word (logos) out of their hearts, lest they should believe and be saved.
13 石の上の者は、聞く時に喜びて言を受くれど、己に根無く、暫く信じて、誘の時には退く人々なり。
They on the rock are they, which, when they hear, receive the word (logos) with joy; and these have no root, which for a while believe, and in time of temptation fall away.
14 茨の中に落ちしは、聞きたる後、往く往く世の慮と富と快樂とに蔽塞がれて、實を結ばざる人々なり。
And that which fell among thorns are they, which, when they have heard, go forth, and are choked with cares and riches and pleasures of this life, and bring no fruit to perfection.
15 然るに沃壌に落ちしは、善良なる心にて、言を聞きて之を保ち、忍耐を以て實を結ぶ人々なり。
But that on the good ground are they, which in an honest and good heart, having heard the word, (logos) keep it, and bring forth fruit with patience.
16 誰も燈を點して、器を以て之を覆ひ、或は寝台の下に置く者はあらず、入來る者に明を見せん為に、之を燭台の上に置く。
No man, when he has lighted a candle, covers it with a vessel, or puts it under a bed; but sets it on a candlestick, that they which enter in may see the light.
17 蓋秘して露れざるはなく、隠れて遂に知れず公にならざるはなし。
For nothing is secret, that shall not be made manifest; neither any thing hid, that shall not be known and come abroad.
18 此故に汝等聞方に注意せよ。其は有てる人は尚與へられ、有たぬ人は其有てりと思ふ物をも奪はるべければなり、と。
Take heed therefore how all of you hear: for whosoever has, to him shall be given; and whosoever has not, from him shall be taken even that which he seems to have.
19 然てイエズスの母、兄弟、逢はんとて來りしかど、群衆の為に近づくこと能はざりしかば、
Then came to him his mother and his brethren, and could not come at him for the press.
20 汝の母、兄弟汝に逢はんとて外に立てり、と告ぐる者ありしに、
And it was told him by certain which said, Your mother and your brethren stand without, desiring to see you.
21 イエズス答へて人々に曰ひけるは、神の御言を聴き且行ふ人、是我母、兄弟なり、と。
And he answered and said unto them, My mother and my brethren are these which hear the word (logos) of God, and do it.
22 一日イエズス、弟子等と共に小舟に乗り給ひしに、我等湖の彼方に渡らん、と曰ひて軈て乗出せり。
Now it came to pass on a certain day, that he went into a ship with his disciples: and he said unto them, Let us go over unto the other side of the lake. And they launched forth.
23 斯て渡る間にイエズス眠り給ひしが、暴風湖に吹下し來り、水舟に充ちて危かりければ、
But as they sailed he fell asleep: and there came down a storm of wind on the lake; and they were filled with water, and were in jeopardy.
24 弟子等近づきて、師よ、我等亡ぶ、と云ひつつイエズスを覚ましたるに、起きて風と怒涛とを戒め給ひしかば、波風息みて凪となれり。
And they came to him, and awoke him, saying, Master, master, we perish. Then he arose, and rebuked the wind and the raging of the water: and they ceased, and there was a calm.
25 然て、汝等の信仰何處に在る、と曰ひければ、彼等且怖れ且感嘆して、是を誰と思ふぞ、風も湖も、命じ給へば是に從ふよ、と云合へり。
And he said unto them, Where is your faith? And they being afraid wondered, saying one to another, What manner of man is this! for he commands even the winds and water, and they obey him.
26 又ガリレアに對へるゲラサ人の地方に渡りて、
And they arrived at the country of the Gadarenes, which is opposite to Galilee.
27 上陸し給ひしに、一箇の人ありて之を迎へたり。彼惡魔に憑かれたる事既に久しくして、衣服をも着ず家にも住まず、墓にのみ居りしが、
And when he went forth to land, there met him out of the city a certain man, which had devils long time, and ware no clothes, neither abode in any house, but in the tombs.
28 イエズスを見るや御前に平伏し、聲高く叫びて、最高き神の御子イエズスよ、我と汝と何の関係かあらん。願くは我を苦しむること勿れ、と云へり。
When he saw Jesus, he cried out, and fell down before him, and with a loud voice said, What have I to do with you, Jesus, you Son of God most high? I plead to you, torment me not.
29 是イエズス惡鬼に、此人より出でよ、と命じ給へばなり。蓋彼惡鬼に執へらるる事既に久しく、鎖にて縛られ、桎にて護らるるも、繋を破り、惡魔に駆られて、荒野に往き居たりき。
(For he had commanded the unclean spirit (pneuma) to come out of the man. For oftentimes it had caught him: and he was kept bound with chains and in fetters; and he brake the bands, and was driven of the devil into the wilderness.)
30 イエズス之に問ひて、汝の名は何ぞ、と曰ひしに彼、軍団なり、と云へり、其は之に入りたる惡魔多ければなり。
And Jesus asked him, saying, What is your name? And he said, Legion: because many devils were entered into him.
31 然てイエズスの命じて底なき淵に往かしめ給はざらん事を請ひたりしが、 (Abyssos g12)
And they besought him that he would not command them to go out into the deep. (Abyssos g12)
32 其處に多くの豚の群、山にて草を食み居しかば、惡魔等其豚に入るを允されん事を請ひけるに、イエズス之を允し給ひければ、
And there was there an herd of many swine feeding on the mountain: and they besought him that he would suffer them to enter into them. And he suffered them.
33 惡魔等其人より出でて豚に入り、其群周章しく崖より湖に飛入りて溺死せり。
Then went the devils out of the man, and entered into the swine: and the herd ran violently down a steep place into the lake, and were choked.
34 牧者等其成行を見るや迯往きて、町に村に吹聴せしかば、
When they that fed them saw what was done, they fled, and went and told it in the city and in the country.
35 人々事の様を見んとて出でしが、イエズスの許に來り、彼惡魔の出でたりし人の、既に衣服を纏ひ心確にして、イエズスの足下に坐せるを見て怖れたり。
Then they went out to see what was done; and came to Jesus, and found the man, out of whom the devils were departed, sitting at the feet of Jesus, clothed, and in his right mind: and they were afraid.
36 斯て見し人々も亦、惡魔憑の救はれし次第を誰彼に告げしかば、
They also which saw it told them by what means he that was possessed of the devils was healed.
37 ゲラサ地方の人民挙りて、己等より立去り給はん事をイエズスに請へり、是大いに怖れたればなり。然てイエズス船に乗りて歸り給ひしに、
Then the whole multitude of the country of the Gadarenes round about besought him to depart from them; for they were taken with great fear: and he went up into the ship, and returned back again.
38 惡魔の離れし男伴はん事を願ひしかど、イエズス之を去らして曰ひけるは、
Now the man out of whom the devils were departed besought him that he might be with him: but Jesus sent him away, saying,
39 己が家に歸りて、神が如何ばかり大いなる事を汝に為し給ひしかを告げよ、と。斯くて彼は普く町を廻りて、イエズスの如何ばかり大いなる事を己に為し給ひしか言弘めたり。
Return to your own house, and show how great things God has done unto you. And he went his way, and published throughout the whole city how great things Jesus had done unto him.
40 イエズス歸り給ひしに、人皆待居たりければ、群衆之を歓迎せり。
And it came to pass, that, when Jesus was returned, the people gladly received him: for they were all waiting for him.
41 折しも名をヤイロと云える人來り、會堂の司なりしが、イエズスの足下に平伏して、己が家に入り給はん事を請へり、
And, behold, there came a man named Jairus, and he was a ruler of the synagogue: and he fell down at Jesus' feet, and besought him that he would come into his house:
42 其は己に十二歳ばかりの獨女ありて、将に死なんとすればなり。イエズス往き給ふ途にて、群衆に押蹙られ給へる中に、
For he had one only daughter, about twelve years of age, and she lay a dying. But as he went the people thronged him.
43 十二年來血漏を患へる一人の女、曾て醫者の為に悉く其財産を費したれども、誰の手にも醫され得ざりしが、
And a woman having an issue of blood twelve years, which had spent all her living upon physicians, neither could be healed of any,
44 後より近づきてイエズスの衣服の総に觸れしかば、其の出血忽止れり。
Came behind him, and touched the border of his garment: and immediately her issue of blood stopped.
45 イエズス、我に觸れし者は誰ぞ、と曰へば皆否めるを、ペトロ及び之に伴ひたる人々云ひけるは、師よ、群衆押蹙りて汝を煩はすに、猶誰か我に觸れし、と曰ふか。
And Jesus said, Who touched me? When all denied, Peter and they that were with him said, Master, the multitude crowd upon you and press you, and say you, Who touched me?
46 イエズス曰ひけるは、我に觸れし者あり、我霊能の我身より出でたるを覚ゆればなり、と。
And Jesus said, Somebody has touched me: for I perceive that virtue is gone out of me.
47 女其隠れざりしを見て慄きつつ、來りてイエズスの足下に平伏し、其觸れし理由と直に痊えたる次第とを公衆の前に明しければ、
And when the woman saw that she was not hid, she came trembling, and falling down before him, she declared unto him before all the people for what cause she had touched him, and how she was healed immediately.
48 イエズス之に曰ひけるは、女よ汝の信仰汝を救へり、安んじて往け、と。
And he said unto her, Daughter, be of good comfort: your faith has made you whole; go in peace.
49 言未了らざるに、人會堂の司の許に來り、汝の女死せり、師を煩わすこと勿れ、と云ひしに、
While he yet spoke, there comes one from the ruler of the synagogue's house, saying to him, Your daughter is dead; trouble not the Master.
50 イエズス此言を聞きて女の父に答へ給ひけるは、懼るること勿れ、唯信ぜよ、然らば彼助かるべし、と。
But when Jesus heard it, he answered him, saying, Fear not: believe only, and she shall be made whole.
51 斯て其家に至り給ひて、ペトロ、ヤコボ、ヨハネ及び女の父母の外、共に入る事を誰にも許し給はず、
And when he came into the house, he suffered no man to go in, save Peter, and James, and John, and the father and the mother of the maiden.
52 人皆女の為に泣き且歎き居れるを、泣く勿れ、女は死したるに非ず、寝ねたるなり、と曰ひしに、
And all wept, and bewailed her: but he said, Weep not; she is not dead, but sleeps.
53 人々は彼の死したるを知りて、之を嘲笑ひ居たり。
And they laughed him to scorn, knowing that she was dead.
54 然るにイエズス、女の手を取り、呼はりて、女起きよ、と曰へば、
And he put them all out, and took her by the hand, and called, saying, Maid, arise.
55 其霊還りて女直に起きしかば、之に食物を與ふる事を命じ給へり。
And her spirit (pneuma) came again, and she arose immediately: and he commanded to give her food.
56 兩親は甚く驚きしが、成りし事を誰にも語るな、とイエズス戒め給へり。
And her parents were astonished: but he charged them that they should tell no man what was done.
