マタイの福音書 8
1 第三款 ガリレアに於る種々の奇蹟 イエズス山を下り給ひしに、群衆夥しく從ひしが、
And when he had come down from the mountain, great crowds followed him.
2 折しも、一人の癩病者來り、拝して云ひけるは、主よ、思召ならば我を潔くすることを得給ふ、と。
And behold, a leper came up to [him] and did him homage, saying, Lord, if thou wilt, thou art able to cleanse me.
3 イエズス、手を伸べて彼に触れ、我意なり潔くなれ、と曰ひければ、其癩病直に潔くなれり。
And he stretched out his hand and touched him, saying, I will; be cleansed. And immediately his leprosy was cleansed.
4 イエズス之に曰ひけるは、慎みて人に語る勿れ、但往きて己を司祭に見せ、彼等への證據として、モイゼの命ぜし禮物を献げよ、と。
And Jesus says to him, See thou tell no man, but go, shew thyself to the priest, and offer the gift which Moses ordained, for a testimony to them.
5 斯てイエズスカファルナウムに入り給ひしが、百夫長近づきて、
And when he had entered into Capernaum, a centurion came to him, beseeching him,
6 願ひて云ひけるは、主よ、我僕癱瘋にて家に臥し、甚く苦しめり、と。
and saying, Lord, my servant lies paralytic in the house, suffering grievously.
7 イエズス、我往きて其を醫さん、と曰ひしかば、
And Jesus says to him, I will come and heal him.
8 百夫長答へて云ひけるは、主よ、我は不肖にして、主の我屋根の下に入り給ふに足らず、唯一言にて命じ給へ、然らば我僕痊えん。
And the centurion answered and said, Lord, I am not fit that thou shouldest enter under my roof; but only speak a word, and my servant shall be healed.
9 蓋我も人の権下に立つ者ながら、部下に兵卒ありて、此に往けと云へば往き、彼に來れ[と云へば]來り、又我僕に是を為せ[と云へば]為すなり、と。
For I also am a man under authority, having under me soldiers, and I say to this [one], Go, and he goes; and to another, Come, and he comes; and to my bondman, Do this, and he does it.
10 イエズス之を聞きて感嘆し、從へる者に曰ひけるは、我誠に汝等に告ぐ、イスラエルの中にても、斯程の信仰に遇ひし事なし。
And when Jesus heard it, he wondered, and said to those who followed, Verily I say unto you, Not even in Israel have I found so great faith.
11 我汝等に告ぐ、多くの人東西より來りて、アブラハムイザアクヤコブと共に天國に坐せん、
But I say unto you, that many shall come from [the] rising and setting [sun], and shall lie down at table with Abraham, and Isaac, and Jacob in the kingdom of the heavens;
12 然れど國の子等は外の暗に逐出されん、其處には痛哭と切歯とあらん、と。
but the sons of the kingdom shall be cast out into the outer darkness: there shall be the weeping and the gnashing of teeth.
13 斯てイエズス百夫長に向ひ、往け、汝の信ぜし如く汝に成れ、と曰ひければ僕即時に痊えたり。
And Jesus said to the centurion, Go, and as thou hast believed, be it to thee. And his servant was healed in that hour.
14 イエズスペトロの家に入り給ひて、彼が姑の熱を病みて臥せるを見、
And when Jesus had come to Peter's house, he saw his mother-in-law laid down and in a fever;
15 其手に触れ給ひしかば、熱其身を去り、起きて彼等に給仕したり。
and he touched her hand, and the fever left her, and she arose and served him.
16 日暮れて後、人々惡魔に憑かれたる者を多く差出ししが、イエズス惡魔を一言にて逐払い、病者をも悉く醫し給へり。
And when the evening was come, they brought to him many possessed by demons, and he cast out the spirits with a word, and healed all that were ill;
17 是預言者イザヤによりて云はれし事の成就せん為なり、曰く「彼は我等の患を受け、我等の病を負ひ給へり」と。
so that that should be fulfilled which was spoken through Esaias the prophet, saying, Himself took our infirmities and bore our diseases.
18 イエズス周圍に群衆の夥しきを見て、湖の彼方へ往かん事を命じ給ひしかば、
And Jesus, seeing great crowds around him, commanded to depart to the other side.
19 一人の律法學士近づきて、師よ、何處へ往き給ふとも我は從はん、と云ひしに、
And a scribe came up and said to him, Teacher, I will follow thee whithersoever thou mayest go.
20 イエズス是に曰ひけるは、狐は穴あり空の鳥は巣あり、然れど人の子は枕する處なし、と。
And Jesus says to him, The foxes have holes, and the birds of the heaven roosting-places; but the Son of man has not where he may lay his head.
21 又弟子の一人、主よ、我が先往きて父を葬る事を允し給へ、と云ひしに、
But another of his disciples said to him, Lord, suffer me first to go away and bury my father.
22 イエズス曰ひけるは、我に從へ、死人をして其死人を葬らしめよ、と。
But Jesus said to him, Follow me, and leave the dead to bury their own dead.
23 イエズス小舟に乗り給ひ、弟子等之に從ひしが、
And he went on board ship and his disciples followed him;
24 折しも湖に大なる暴嵐起りて、小舟涛に蔽はるる程なるに、イエズスは眠り居給へり。
and behold, [the water] became very agitated on the sea, so that the ship was covered by the waves; but he slept.
25 弟子等近づきて之を起し、主よ、我等を救ひ給へ、我等亡ぶ、と云ひければ、
And the disciples came and awoke him, saying, Lord save: we perish.
26 イエズス彼等に曰ひけるは、何ぞ怖るるや、信仰薄き者よ、と。即起て風と湖とを戒め給ひしに、大凪となれり。
And he says to them, Why are ye fearful, O ye of little faith? Then, having arisen, he rebuked the winds and the sea, and there was a great calm.
27 斯て人々感嘆して、是は何人ぞや、風も湖も是に從ふよ、と云へり。
But the men were astonished, saying, What sort [of man] is this, that even the winds and the sea obey him?
28 イエズス湖の彼方なるゲラサ人の地に至り給ひしに、惡魔に憑かれたる者二人、墓より出でて迎へ來れり。豫てより其猛き事甚しく、誰も其途を過ぎ得ざる程なりしが、
And there met him, when he came to the other side, to the country of the Gergesenes, two possessed by demons, coming out of the tombs, exceeding dangerous, so that no one was able to pass by that way.
29 忽叫びて云ひけるは、神の御子イエズスよ、我等と汝と何の関係かあらん、期未至らざるに、我等を苦しめんとて此處に來り給へるか、と。
And behold, they cried out, saying, What have we to do with thee, Son of God? hast thou come here before the time to torment us?
30 然るに彼等を距る事遠からぬ處に、多くの豚の群物喰ひ居ければ、
Now there was, a great way off from them, a herd of many swine feeding;
31 惡魔等イエズスに願ひて云ひけるは、若我等を此處より逐払い給はば、豚の群の中に遣り給へ、と。
and the demons besought him, saying, If thou cast us out, send us away into the herd of swine.
32 イエズス彼等に、往け、と曰ひしかば、彼等出でて豚に憑き、見る見る群皆遽しく、崖より湖に飛入りて水に死せり。
And he said to them, Go. And they, going out, departed into the herd of swine; and lo, the whole herd [of swine] rushed down the steep slope into the sea, and died in the waters.
33 牧者等逃げて町に至り、一切の事と惡魔に憑かれたりし人々の事とを吹聴せしかば、
But they that fed them fled, and went away into the city and related everything, and what had happened as to those possessed by demons.
34 直に町挙りてイエズスを出迎へ、是を見るや其境を過ぎ給はん事を乞へり。
And behold, the whole city went out to meet Jesus; and when they saw him, they begged [him] to go away out of their coasts.
