マタイの福音書 23
1 其時イエズス群衆と弟子とに語りて、
Then spake Jesus to the multitudes and to his disciples,
2 曰ひけるは、律法學士とファリザイ人とはモイゼの講座に坐せり。
saying, The scribes and the Pharisees sit on Moses’ seat:
3 然れば彼等の汝等に云ふ所は、悉く守りて行へ、然れど彼等の行に倣ひて行ふこと勿れ、彼等は言ひて而も行はざればなり。
all things therefore whatsoever they bid you, [these] do and observe: but do not ye after their works; for they say, and do not.
4 即彼等は、重く擔ひ難き荷を括りて人の肩に載すれど、己が指先にて之を動かす事をすら否む。
Yea, they bind heavy burdens and grievous to be borne, and lay them on men’s shoulders; but they themselves will not move them with their finger.
5 其凡ての行は人に見られん為にして、即其経牌を闊くし、其繸を大くす。
But all their works they do to be seen of men: for they make broad their phylacteries, and enlarge the borders [of their garments],
6 また宴席にては上席、會堂にては上座、
and love the chief place at feasts, and the chief seats in the synagogues,
7 衢にては人の敬禮、又ラビと呼ばるる事を好む。
and the salutations in the marketplaces, and to be called of men, Rabbi.
8 汝等はラビと呼ばるる事勿れ、汝等の師は一個にして、汝等は皆兄弟なればなり。
But be not ye called Rabbi: for one is your teacher, and all ye are brethren.
9 又地上の人を汝等の父と稱ふること勿れ、汝等の父は天に在す一個のみなればなり。
And call no man your father on the earth: for one is your Father, [even] he who is in heaven.
10 又指導師と稱へらるること勿れ、汝等の指導師は一個にして、即キリストなればなり。
Neither be ye called masters: for one is your master, [even] the Christ.
11 汝等の中最大なる者は汝等の僕となるべし。
But he that is greatest among you shall be your servant.
12 自驕る人は下げられ、自遜る人は上げらるべし。
And whosoever shall exalt himself shall be humbled; and whosoever shall humble himself shall be exalted.
13 禍なる哉汝等、僞善なる律法學士、ファリザイ人等よ、其は人の前に天國を閉ぢ じて、己も入らず、入りつつある人々をも入らしめざればなり。
But woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! because ye shut the kingdom of heaven against men: for ye enter not in yourselves, neither suffer ye them that are entering in to enter.
14 禍なる哉汝等、僞善なる律法學士ファリザイ人等よ、其は長き祈を唱へて、寡婦等の家を食盡せばなり。汝等は是に由りて最厳しき審判を受けん。
Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye compass sea and land to make one proselyte; and when he is become so, ye make him twofold more a son of hell than yourselves. (Geenna g1067)
16 禍なる哉汝等、瞽者なる手引よ、汝等は云ふ、「総て人[神]殿を指して誓ふは事にも非ず、[神]殿の黄金を指して誓はば果さざるべからず」と。
Woe unto you, ye blind guides, that say, Whosoever shall swear by the temple, it is nothing; but whosoever shall swear by the gold of the temple, he is a debtor.
17 愚にして瞽なる者ども哉、孰か大なるぞ、黄金か、将黄金を聖ならしむる[神]殿か。
Ye fools and blind: for which is greater, the gold, or the temple that hath sanctified the gold?
18 [汝等は又云ふ]「総て人祭壇を指して誓ふは事にも非ず、其上なる供物を指して誓はば果さざるべからず」と。
And, Whosoever shall swear by the altar, it is nothing; but whosoever shall swear by the gift that is upon it, he is a debtor.
19 瞽者等よ、孰れか大なるぞ、供物か、将供物を聖ならしむる祭壇か。
Ye blind: for which is greater, the gift, or the altar that sanctifieth the gift?
20 然れば祭壇を指して誓ふ人は、祭壇と総て其上なる物とを指して誓ふなり。
He therefore that sweareth by the altar, sweareth by it, and by all things thereon.
21 又総て[神]殿を指して誓ふ人は、[神]殿と其中に住み給ふものとを指して誓ふなり。
And he that sweareth by the temple, sweareth by it, and by him that dwelleth therein.
22 又天を指して誓ふ人は、神の玉座と其上に坐し給ふ者とを指して誓ふなり。
And he that sweareth by the heaven, sweareth by the throne of God, and by him that sitteth thereon.
23 禍なる哉汝等、僞善なる律法學士ファリザイ人等よ、汝等は薄荷茴香馬芹の十分の一を納めて、而も律法に於て尚重大なる、正義と慈悲と忠實とを遺せり、此事等を為してこそ彼の事をも怠らざるべかりしなれ。
Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye tithe mint and anise and cummin, and have left undone the weightier matters of the law, justice, and mercy, and faith: but these ye ought to have done, and not to have left the other undone.
24 蝐蠉を濾出だして駱駝を呑む瞽者なる手引等よ。
Ye blind guides, that strain out the gnat, and swallow the camel!
25 禍なる哉汝等、僞善なる律法學士ファリザイ人等よ、其は杯と盤との外を淨めて、内は貪と汚とに充ちたればなり。
Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye cleanse the outside of the cup and of the platter, but within they are full from extortion and excess.
26 汝瞽者なるファリザイ人よ、先杯と盤との内を淨めよ、然らば外も淨くなるべし。
Thou blind Pharisee, cleanse first the inside of the cup and of the platter, that the outside thereof may become clean also.
27 禍なる哉汝等、僞善なる律法學士ファリザイ人等よ、其は白く塗りたる墓に似たればなり。外は人に麗しく見ゆれども、内は死人の骨と諸の汚とに充てり。
Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye are like unto whited sepulchres, which outwardly appear beautiful, but inwardly are full of dead men’s bones, and of all uncleanness.
28 斯の如く、汝等も外は義人の如く人に見ゆれども、内は僞善と不義とに充てり。
Even so ye also outwardly appear righteous unto men, but inwardly ye are full of hypocrisy and iniquity.
29 禍なる哉汝等、僞善なる律法學士ファリザイ人等よ、汝等は預言者等の墓を建て、義人等の記念碑を飾りて、
Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye build the sepulchres of the prophets, and garnish the tombs of the righteous,
30 曰く、「我等若先祖の時代に在りしならば、預言者等の血[を流す]に與せざりしものを」と。
and say, If we had been in the days of our fathers, we should not have been partakers with them in the blood of the prophets.
31 斯て汝等は、預言者等を殺しし人の子孫たる事を自證するなり。
Wherefore ye witness to yourselves, that ye are sons of them that slew the prophets.
32 然らば汝等も先祖の量を盈たせよ。
Fill ye up then the measure of your fathers.
Ye serpents, ye offspring of vipers, how shall ye escape the judgment of hell? (Geenna g1067)
34 然れば看よ、我汝等に預言者、智者、律法學士等を遣はせども、汝等は其或者を殺し、十字架に釘け、或者を汝等の會堂に鞭ちて、街より街に遂迫めん。
Therefore, behold, I send unto you prophets, and wise men, and scribes: some of them shall ye kill and crucify; and some of them shall ye scourge in your synagogues, and persecute from city to city:
35 斯て義人アベルの血より、汝等が[神]殿と祭壇との間にて殺ししパラキアの子ザカリアの血に至る迄、総て地上に流されたる義しき血は、汝等の上に歸すべし。
that upon you may come all the righteous blood shed on the earth, from the blood of Abel the righteous unto the blood of Zachariah son of Barachiah, whom ye slew between the sanctuary and the altar.
36 我誠に汝等に告ぐ、此事皆現代の上に歸すべし。
Verily I say unto you, All these things shall come upon this generation.
37 エルザレムよ、エルザレムよ、預言者等を殺し、且汝に遣はされたる人々に石を擲つ者よ、我牝鶏の其雛を翼の下に集むる如く、汝の子等を集めんとせしこと幾度ぞや、然れど、汝之を否めり。
O Jerusalem, Jerusalem, that killeth the prophets, and stoneth them that are sent unto her! how often would I have gathered thy children together, even as a hen gathereth her chickens under her wings, and ye would not!
38 看よ、汝等の家は荒廃れて汝等に遺されん。
Behold, your house is left unto you desolate.
39 我汝等に告ぐ、汝等「主の名によりて來る者は祝せられ給へ」と云ふ迄は、今より我を見ざるべし、[と語り給へり]。
For I say unto you, Ye shall not see me henceforth, till ye shall say, Blessed [is] he that cometh in the name of the Lord.
