< マタイの福音書 5 >

1 第二款 山上の説教 イエズス群衆を見て、山に登りて坐し給ひしかば、弟子等是に近づきけるに、
But seeing the crowds, he went up into the mountain, and having sat down, his disciples came to him;
2 口を開きて、彼等に教へて曰ひけるは、
and, having opened his mouth, he taught them, saying,
3 福なるかな心の貧しき人、天國は彼等の有なればなり。
Blessed [are] the poor in spirit, for theirs is the kingdom of the heavens.
4 福なるかな柔和なる人、彼等は地を得べければなり。
Blessed they that mourn, for they shall be comforted.
5 福なるかな泣く人、彼等は慰めらるべければなり。
Blessed the meek, for they shall inherit the earth.
6 福なるかな義に飢渇く人、彼等は飽かさるべければなり。
Blessed they who hunger and thirst after righteousness, for they shall be filled.
7 福なるかな慈悲ある人、彼等は慈悲を得べければなり。
Blessed the merciful, for they shall find mercy.
8 福なるかな心の潔き人、彼等は神を見奉るべければなり。
Blessed the pure in heart, for they shall see God.
9 福なるかな和睦せしむる人、彼等は神の子等と稱へらるべければなり。
Blessed the peace-makers, for they shall be called sons of God.
10 福なるかな義の為に迫害を忍ぶ人、天國は彼等の有なればなり。
Blessed they who are persecuted on account of righteousness, for theirs is the kingdom of the heavens.
11 我が為に人々汝等を詛ひ、且迫害し、且僞りて、汝等に就きて所有る惡聲を放たん時、汝等は福なるかな、
Blessed are ye when they may reproach and persecute you, and say every wicked thing against you, lying, for my sake.
12 歓躍れ、其は天に於る汝等の報甚多かるべければなり。蓋汝等より先に在りし預言者等も斯く迫害せられたり。
Rejoice and exult, for your reward is great in the heavens; for thus have they persecuted the prophets who were before you.
13 汝等は地の塩なり、塩若其味を失はば、何を以てか是に塩せん、最早用なく、外に棄てられて人に踏まるべきのみ。
Ye are the salt of the earth; but if the salt have become insipid, wherewith shall it be salted? It is no longer fit for anything but to be cast out and to be trodden under foot by men.
14 汝等は世の光なり。山の上に建てたる街は隠るること能はず。
Ye are the light of the world: a city situated on the top of a mountain cannot be hid.
15 人は又燈を點して枡の下に置かず、家に在る凡ての物を照らさん為に、之を燭台の上に置く。
Nor do [men] light a lamp and put it under the bushel, but upon the lamp-stand, and it shines for all who are in the house.
16 斯の如く、汝等の光は人の前に輝くべし、然らば人は汝等の善業を見て、天に在す汝等の父に光榮を歸し奉らん。
Let your light thus shine before men, so that they may see your upright works, and glorify your Father who is in the heavens.
17 我律法若くは預言者を廃せんとて來れりと思ふこと勿れ、廃せんとて來りしには非ず、全うせんが為なり。
Think not that I am come to make void the law or the prophets; I am not come to make void, but to fulfil.
18 蓋我誠に汝等に告ぐ、天地の過ぐるまでは、律法より一點一画も廃らずして、悉く成就するに至るべし。
For verily I say unto you, Until the heaven and the earth pass away, one iota or one tittle shall in no wise pass from the law till all come to pass.
19 故に彼最も小き掟の一を廃し、且其儘人に教ふる者は、天國にて最小き者と稱へられん、然れど之を行ひ且教ふる者は、天國にて大なる者と稱へられん。
Whosoever then shall do away with one of these least commandments, and shall teach men so, shall be called least in the kingdom of the heavens; but whosoever shall practise and teach [them], he shall be called great in the kingdom of the heavens.
20 蓋我汝等に告ぐ、若汝等の義、律法學士ファリザイ人等の其に優るに非ずば、汝等天國に入らざるべし。
For I say unto you, that unless your righteousness surpass [that] of the scribes and Pharisees, ye shall in no wise enter into the kingdom of the heavens.
21 「殺す勿れ、殺す人は裁判せらるべし」と、古の人に云はれしは、汝等の聞ける所なり。
Ye have heard that it was said to the ancients, Thou shalt not kill; but whosoever shall kill shall be subject to the judgment.
22 然れど我汝等に告ぐ、総て其兄弟を怒る人は裁判せらるべし、其兄弟を愚者よと云ふ人は衆議所の處分を受けん、狂妄者よと云ふ人は地獄の火に當るべし。 (Geenna g1067)
But I say unto you, that every one that is lightly angry with his brother shall be subject to the judgment; but whosoever shall say to his brother, Raca, shall be subject to [be called before] the sanhedrim; but whosoever shall say, Fool, shall be subject to the penalty of the hell of fire. (Geenna g1067)
23 故に汝若禮物を祭壇に献ぐる時、其處に於て、何にもあれ兄弟に怨まるる事あるを思出さば、
If therefore thou shouldest offer thy gift at the altar, and there shouldest remember that thy brother has something against thee,
24 其禮物を其處に、祭壇の前に措き、先往きて兄弟と和睦し、然る後に來りて其禮物を献げよ。
leave there thy gift before the altar, and first go, be reconciled to thy brother, and then come and offer thy gift.
25 汝敵手と共に途に在る中に早く和解せよ、恐らくは敵手より判事に付され、判事より下役に付され、遂に監獄に入れられん、
Make friends with thine adverse party quickly, whilst thou art in the way with him; lest some time the adverse party deliver thee to the judge, and the judge deliver thee to the officer, and thou be cast into prison.
26 我誠に汝に告ぐ、最終の一厘を還す迄は其處を出でざるべし。
Verily I say to thee, Thou shalt in no wise come out thence till thou hast paid the last farthing.
27 「汝姦淫する勿れ」と古の人に云はれしは汝等の聞ける所なり。
Ye have heard that it has been said, Thou shalt not commit adultery.
28 然れど我汝等に告ぐ、総て色情を起さんとて婦を見る人は、既に心の中に之と姦淫したるなり。
But I say unto you, that every one who looks upon a woman to lust after her has already committed adultery with her in his heart.
29 若汝の右の目汝を躓かさば之を抉りて棄てよ、其は汝に取りて、五體の一の亡ぶるは、全身を地獄に投入れらるるに優ればなり。 (Geenna g1067)
But if thy right eye be a snare to thee, pluck it out and cast it from thee: for it is profitable for thee that one of thy members perish, and not thy whole body be cast into hell. (Geenna g1067)
30 若汝の右の手汝を躓かさば之を切りて棄てよ、其は汝に取りて、五體の一の亡ぶるは、全身の地獄に行くに優ればなり。 (Geenna g1067)
And if thy right hand be a snare to thee, cut it off and cast it from thee: for it is profitable for thee that one of thy members perish, and not thy whole body be cast into hell. (Geenna g1067)
31 又「何人も妻を出さば是に離縁状を與ふべし」と云はれたる事あり。
It has been said too, Whosoever shall put away his wife, let him give her a letter of divorce.
32 然れど我汝等に告ぐ、総て私通の故ならで妻を出す人は、之をして姦淫せしむるなり、又出されたる婦を娶る人も姦淫するなり。
But I say unto you, that whosoever shall put away his wife, except for cause of fornication, makes her commit adultery, and whosoever marries one that is put away commits adultery.
33 又「僞り誓ふ勿れ、誓ひたる事は主に果すべし」と古の人に云はれしは、汝等の聞ける所なり。
Again, ye have heard that it has been said to the ancients, Thou shalt not forswear thyself, but shalt render to the Lord what thou hast sworn.
34 然れど我汝等に告ぐ、断じて誓ふ勿れ。天を指して[誓ふ勿れ]、其は神の玉座なればなり。
But I say unto you, Do not swear at all; neither by the heaven, because it is [the] throne of God;
35 地を指して[誓ふ勿れ]、其は神の足台なればなり。エルザレムを指して[誓ふ勿れ]、其は大王の都なればなり。
nor by the earth, because it is [the] footstool of his feet; nor by Jerusalem, because it is [the] city of the great King.
36 汝の頭を指して誓ふ勿れ、其は一縷の髪だも、白く或は黒くすることを得ざればなり。
Neither shalt thou swear by thy head, because thou canst not make one hair white or black.
37 汝等唯、然り然り否々と云へ、是より過ぐる所は惡より出るなり。
But let your word be Yea, yea; Nay, nay; but what is more than these is from evil.
38 又「目にて目を[償ひ]、歯にて歯を[償ふべし]」と云はれしは汝等の聞ける所なり。
Ye have heard that it has been said, Eye for eye and tooth for tooth.
39 然れど我汝等に告ぐ、惡人に抗ふ勿れ、人若し汝の頬を打たば、他の[頬]をも是に向けよ。
But I say unto you, not to resist evil; but whoever shall strike thee on thy right cheek, turn to him also the other;
40 又汝を訟へて下着を取らんとする人には上着をも渡せ。
and to him that would go to law with thee and take thy body coat, leave him thy cloak also.
41 又汝を強て一千歩を歩ませんとする人あらば、尚二千歩を彼と共に歩め。
And whoever will compel thee to go one mile, go with him two.
42 汝に乞ふ人に與へよ、汝に借らんとする人に身を背くること勿れ。
To him that asks of thee give, and from him that desires to borrow of thee turn not away.
43 「汝の近き者を愛し、汝の敵を憎むべし」と云はれしは、汝等の聞ける所なり。
Ye have heard that it has been said, Thou shalt love thy neighbour and hate thine enemy.
44 然れど我汝等に告ぐ、汝等の敵を愛し、汝等を憎む人を恵み、汝等を迫害し且讒謗する人の為に祈れ。
But I say unto you, Love your enemies, [bless those who curse you, ] do good to those who hate you, and pray for those who [insult you and] persecute you,
45 是天に在す汝等の父の子等たらん為なり、其は父は善人にも惡人にも日を照らし、義者にも不義者にも雨を降らし給へばなり。
that ye may be [the] sons of your Father who is in [the] heavens; for he makes his sun rise on evil and good, and sends rain on just and unjust.
46 汝等己を愛する人を愛すればとて、何の報をか得べき、税吏も然するに非ずや。
For if ye should love those who love you, what reward have ye? Do not also the tax-gatherers the same?
47 又己の兄弟等にのみ挨拶すればとて、何の勝れたる事をか為せる、異邦人も然するに非ずや。
And if ye should salute your brethren only, what do ye extraordinary? Do not also the Gentiles the same?
48 故に汝等の天父の完全に在す如く、汝等も亦完全なれ。
Be ye therefore perfect as your heavenly Father is perfect.
