マタイの福音書 19
1 第四項 イエズスエルザレムへの最後の旅行 是等の談を畢りて、イエズス遂にガリレアを去り、ヨルダン[河]の向なるユデアの境に至り給ひしが、
And it came to pass, that when Jesus had finished these sayings, (logos) he departed from Galilee, and came into the coasts of Judaea beyond Jordan;
2 群衆夥しく之に從ひければ、其處にて彼等を醫し給へり。
And great multitudes followed him; and he healed them there.
3 ファリザイ人近づきて、彼を試みて云ひけるは、如何なる理由の下にも、人は其妻を出すを得べきか。
The Pharisees also came unto him, tempting him, and saying unto him, Is it lawful for a man to put away his wife for every cause?
4 イエズス答へて曰ひけるは、汝等読まざりしか、即元始に人を造り給ひしもの、之を男女に造りて曰はく、
And he answered and said unto them, Have all of you not read, that he which made them at the beginning made them male and female,
5 「此故に、人は父母を離れて、其妻に就き兩人一體と成るべし」と、
And said, For this cause shall a man leave father and mother, and shall cleave to his wife: and they two shall be one flesh?
6 然れば既に二人に非ずして一體なり、故に神の配せ給ひしもの、人之を分つべからず、と。
Wherefore they are no more two, but one flesh. What therefore God has joined together, let not man put asunder.
7 ファリザイ人云ひけるは、然らば離縁状を與へて妻を出すべし、とモイゼの命ぜしは何ぞや。
They say unto him, Why did Moses then command to give a writing of divorcement, and to put her away?
8 答へて曰ひけるは、モイゼは汝等の心の頑固なるが為に、妻を出す事を汝等に許したれど、元始より然はあらざりき。
He says unto them, Moses because of the hardness of your hearts suffered you to put away your wives: but from the beginning it was not so.
9 即我汝等に告ぐ、総て私通の故ならで其妻を出し、他の女を娶る人は姦淫するなり、又出されたる女を娶る人も姦淫するなり、と。
And I say unto you, Whosoever shall put away his wife, except it be for fornication, and shall marry another, commits adultery: and whoso marries her which is put away does commit adultery.
10 弟子等イエズスに向ひ、若人の妻に於る事斯の如くば、娶らざるに若ず、と云ひしかば、
His disciples say unto him, If the case of the man be so with his wife, it is not good to marry.
11 イエズス曰ひけるは、人皆此言を肯容るるには非ず、[肯容るるは]賜はりたる者のみ。
But he said unto them, All men cannot receive this saying, (logos) save they to whom it is given.
12 即母の胎内より生れながらの閹者あり、人より為られたる閹者あり、又天國の為に自ら作せる閹者あるなり。肯容るるを得る人は肯容るべし、と。
For there are some eunuchs, which were so born from their mother's womb: and there are some eunuchs, which were made eunuchs of men: and there be eunuchs, which have made themselves eunuchs for the kingdom of heaven's sake. He that is able to receive it, let him receive it.
13 時に按手して祈られんが為、孩兒等イエズスに差出されしが、弟子等之を拒みければ、
Then were there brought unto him little children, that he should put his hands on them, and pray: and the disciples rebuked them.
14 イエズス彼等に曰ひけるは、孩兒等を容せ、其我に來るを禁ずること勿れ、天國は斯の如き人の為なればなり、と。
But Jesus said, Suffer little children, and forbid them not, to come unto me: for of such is the kingdom of heaven.
15 斯て彼等に按手し給ひ、さて此處を去り給へり。
And he laid his hands on them, and departed thence.
And, behold, one came and said unto him, Good Master, what good thing shall I do, that I may have eternal life? (aiōnios g166)
17 イエズス曰ひけるは、何ぞ善を我に問ふや、善き者は獨のみ、即神なり。但汝若生命に入らんと欲せば掟を守れ、と。
And he said unto him, Why call you me good? there is none good but one, that is, God: but if you will enter into life, keep the commandments.
18 彼、何れ[の掟]ぞや、と云ひしにイエズス曰ひけるは、汝人を殺す勿れ、姦淫する勿れ、偸盗する勿れ、僞證する勿れ、
He says unto him, Which? Jesus said, You shall do no murder, You shall not commit adultery, You shall not steal, You shall not bear false witness,
19 汝の父母を敬へ、又汝の近き者を己の如く愛せよ、と。
Honour your father and your mother: and, You shall love your neighbour as yourself.
20 青年云ひけるは、是皆我幼年より守りし所、猶我に缼けたるは何ぞや。
The young man says unto him, All these things have I kept from my youth up: what lack I yet?
21 イエズス曰ひけるは、汝若完全ならんと欲せば、往きて有てる物を売り、之を貧者に施せ、然らば天に於て寳を得ん、而して來りて我に從へ、と。
Jesus said unto him, If you will be perfect, go and sell that you have, and give to the poor, and you shall have treasure in heaven: and come and follow me.
22 此言を聞くや青年憂ひて去れり、是多くの財産を有てる者なればなり。
But when the young man heard that saying, (logos) he went away sorrowful: for he had great possessions.
23 イエズス弟子等に曰ひけるは、我誠に汝等に告ぐ、富者は天國に入り難し、
Then said Jesus unto his disciples, Verily I say unto you, That a rich man shall hardly enter into the kingdom of heaven.
24 又汝等に告ぐ、駱駝が針の孔を通るは、富者の天國に入るよりも易し、と。
And again I say unto you, It is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle, than for a rich man to enter into the kingdom of God.
25 弟子等聞きて甚怪しみ、然らば誰か救はるるを得ん、と云ひければ、
When his disciples heard it, they were exceedingly amazed, saying, Who then can be saved?
26 イエズス彼等を凝視めつつ曰ひけるは、是人に於ては能はざる所なれども、神に於ては何事も能はざる所なし、と。
But Jesus beheld them, and said unto them, With men this is impossible; but with God all things are possible.
27 其時ペトロ答へて云ひけるは、然て我等は一切を棄てて汝に從へり、然れば何を得べきぞ、と。
Then answered Peter and said unto him, Behold, we have forsaken all, and followed you; what shall we have therefore?
28 イエズス彼等に曰ひけるは、我誠に汝等に告ぐ、我に從ひたる汝等は、世革りて人の子其光榮の座に坐せん時、汝等も十二の座に坐して、イスラエルの十二族を審くべし。
And Jesus said unto them, Verily I say unto you, That all of you which have followed me, in the regeneration when the Son of man shall sit in the throne of his glory, all of you also shall sit upon twelve thrones, judging the twelve tribes of Israel.
And every one that has forsaken houses, or brethren, or sisters, or father, or mother, or wife, or children, or lands, for my name's sake, shall receive an hundredfold, and shall inherit everlasting life. (aiōnios g166)
30 但多く、先なる人は後になり、後なる人は先にならん。
But many that are first shall be last; and the last shall be first.
