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, in due course, that he was passing through, city by city and village by village, proclaiming, and delivering the glad-message 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, who had been cured from evil spirits and infirmities, —Mary, the one called Magdalene, from whom seven demons had gone forth,
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 Joana, wife of Chuza steward of Herod, and Susanna, and many others, —who indeed were ministering unto them out of their possessions.
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, seeing that a great multitude were coming together, and they who from every city were journeying forth unto him, he spake through means of 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。
The sower went forth to sow his seed, —and, as he sowed, some, indeed, fell beside the pathway, and was trodden down; and, the birds of heaven, 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, other, fell down upon the rock; and, growing, was withered, because it had not 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, other, fell and thorns; and, growing together, the thorns, 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 into good ground; and, growing, brought forth fruit, a hundredfold. These things, saying, he went on to cry aloud—He that hath ears to hear, let him hear.
9 弟子等、此喩を如何にと問ひしに、
But his disciples began to question him—What might, this very, 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, hath it been given, to get to know the sacred secrets of the kingdom of God; but, unto the rest, in parables, —in order that, seeing, they may not see, and, hearing, they may 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 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。
And, those beside the pathway, are they who have heard; afterwards, cometh the adversary, and catcheth away the word from their heart, lest, believing, they should, 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。
And, those upon the rock, are they who, as soon as they hear, with joy, welcome the word; and, these, not having, root, are they who, for a season, believe, —and, in a season of testing, draw back.
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 in among the thorns fell, these, are they who have heard; and, by anxieties and wealth and pleasures of life being borne along, are choked up, and bear not 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 in the good ground, these, are they who, indeed, in a noble and good heart having heard the word, hold fast, and bear fruit with endurance.
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。
And, no one having lit a lamp, covereth it up with a vessel, or, beneath a couch, putteth it; but, upon a lamp-stand, putteth it, that, they who come 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 there is no secret, which shall not be made, manifest; neither a hidden thing, which shall in anywise not be made known, or not come, where it can be seen.
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。
Be taking heed therefore how ye hear; for, whosoever shall have, it shall be given unto him; and, whosoever shall not have, even what he seemeth to have, shall be taken from him.
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、
And his mother and brethren came near unto him, and were unable to reach him, because of the multitude.
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 reported to him—Thy mother and thy brethren, are standing outside, desiring, to see, thee.
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。
But, he, answering, said unto them—My mother and my brethren, are, these—they who, the word of God, are hearing and doing.
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。
And it came to pass, on one of the days, that, he, entered into a boat, and his disciples; and he said unto them—Let us pass over unto the other side of the lake. And they set sail.
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、
Now, as they were sailing, he fell asleep. And there came down a hurricane of wind upon the lake, and they began to be filled, and to be in peril.
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, coming near, they roused him up, saying—Master! Master! we perish! And, he, roused up, rebuked the wind, and the surging of the water; and they ceased, and it became 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 was your faith? But, struck with fear, they marvelled, saying one to another—Who then is, this, —that, even unto the winds, he giveth orders, and unto the water, and they hearken unto him.
26 又ガリレアに對へるゲラサ人の地方に渡りて、
And they sailed down into the country of the Gerasenes, the which is over against 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 upon the land, there met him a certain man, out of the city, having demons; and, for a considerable time, he had put on no garment, and, in a house, would not abide, but among 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。
But, seeing Jesus, he cried out aloud, and fell down before him, and, with a loud voice, said—What have I in common with thee, O Jesus, Son of [God] the Most High? I beg of thee—Do not torment me!—
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 was about to charge the impure spirit to come out from the man. For, many times, had it snatched him away; and he used to be bound with chains and fetters, for a safe-guard, and was wont to break in pieces the bonds, and to be driven by the demon into the deserts.
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 questioned him—What name hast thou? And, he, said—Legion! because many demons had entered into him.
And they were beseeching him that he would not order them, into the abyss, to depart. (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、
Now there was there, a herd of a good many swine, feeding in the mountain; and they besought him, that he would suffer them, into those, to enter; 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。
And the demons, going forth from the man entered into the swine; and the herd rushed down the cliff, 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、
And they who had been feeding them, seeing what had happened, fled, and carried tidings into the city, and into the country-places.
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。
And they went forth to see what had happened; and came unto Jesus, and found the man from whom the demons had gone forth, sitting, clothed, and of sound mind, near the feet of Jesus, —and they were struck with fear.
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、
And they who had seen it, reported unto them, how the demonized man was saved.
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、
And one and all of the throng of the surrounding country of the Gerasenes, requested him, to depart from them; because, with a great fear, were they oppressed. And, he, entering into a boat, returned.
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、
And the man from whom the demons had gone forth, began to beg of him, that he might be with him; but he dismissed him, 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。
Be returning unto thy house, and telling forth what great things, God, for thee, hath done. And he departed, through all the city, proclaiming what great things, Jesus, had done for 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。
Now, when Jesus returned, the multitude welcomed him back, for they were all expecting 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 lo! there came a man, whose name was Jairus, and, the same, was, a ruler of the synagogue, —and, falling down near the feet of Jesus, he began beseeching him to enter 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、
because he had, an only-begotten daughter, about twelve years old, and, she, was dying. Now, as he withdrew, the multitudes, were hemming him in.
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, with a flow of blood of twelve years standing, who indeed could, from no one, be cured,
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。
coming near behind, touched the fringe of his mantle; and, instantly, was stayed the flow of her blood.
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, is it that touched me? And, when all were denying, Peter said—Master! the multitudes, are hemming thee in, and pressing along.
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。
But, Jesus, said—Some one touched me, for, I, took note of power, gone out from 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, the woman seeing that she had not escaped notice, trembling, came, and, falling down before him, reported before all the people, for what cause she had touched him, and how she was healed instantly!
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 to her—Daughter! thy faith, hath saved thee: Go thy way into 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 yet he is speaking, there cometh one from the synagogue ruler’s, saying—Thy daughter, is dead: No further, be troubling the teacher.
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, Jesus, hearing, answered him—Do not fear! Only believe, and she shall be saved.
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 one to enter with him, save Peter and John and James, and the father of the girl, and the mother.
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 they were all weeping, and beating themselves, for her. And he said—Be not weeping; for she died not, but is sleeping.
53 人々は彼の死したるを知りて、之を嘲笑ひ居たり。
And they were deriding him, knowing that she died.
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、
But, he, grasping her hand, called aloud, saying—O girl! 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 returned, and she rose up instantly, and he ordered that something should be given her to eat.
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 beside themselves. But, he, charged them to tell, no one, what had happened.
