ヨハネの黙示録 10
1 第三款 第七の喇叭に先てる中間の二出現 我又見たるに、別に天より下る一の強き天使ありて、身には雲を纏ひ、頭には虹あり、其顔は日の如く、其足は火柱の如く、
I saw another mighty angel coming down out of the sky, clothed with a cloud. A rainbow was on his head. His face was like the sun, and his legs like pillars of fire.
2 手には開きたる小き巻物あり、右の足を海の上に、左の足を地の上に踏み、
He had in his hand a little open scroll. He set his right foot on the sea, and his left on the land.
3 獅子の吼ゆるが如き大いなる聲して叫びしが、叫び終りて七の雷聲を出せり。
He shouted with a loud voice, as a lion roars. When he shouted, the seven thunders uttered their voices.
4 然て七の雷聲を出したる時、我之を書記さんとせしに、天より聲ありて、七の雷の語りし事を封じて、之を書記すこと勿れと我に謂へるを聞けり。
When the seven thunders sounded, I was about to write; but I heard a voice from the sky saying, "Seal up the things which the seven thunders said, and do not write them."
5 斯て前に見たりし海陸の上に跨りて立てる天使、右の手を挙げて天を指し、
The angel whom I saw standing on the sea and on the land lifted up his right hand to the sky,
and swore by him who lives forever and ever, who created heaven and the things that are in it, the earth and the things that are in it, and the sea and the things that are in it, that there will no longer be delay, (aiōn g165)
7 然れど第七の天使の聲を出し、喇叭を吹始むる時に至りて、神の奥義は其僕なる預言者等を以て幸に告げ給ひしが如く成就すべし、と。
but in the days of the voice of the seventh angel, when he is about to sound, then the mystery of God is finished, as he declared to his servants, the prophets.
8 又天より聲聞えて、再び我に語り、往きて海陸に跨りて立てる天使の手より、開きたる巻物を取れと言ひしかば、我天使の許に至りて、我に巻物を與へよ、と言ひしに彼我に謂ひけるは、
The voice which I heard from heaven, again speaking with me, said, "Go, take the scroll which is open in the hand of the angel who stands on the sea and on the land."
9 巻物を取りて食盡せ、汝の腹を苦からしめんも、口には蜜の如く甘かるべし、と。
I went to the angel, telling him to give me the little scroll. He said to me, "Take it, and eat it up. It will make your stomach bitter, but in your mouth it will be as sweet as honey."
10 斯て我天使の手より巻物を受けて之を食盡ししに、我口に在りては蜜の如く甘かりしも、食盡して後我腹は苦く成れり。
I took the little scroll out of the angel's hand, and ate it up. It was as sweet as honey in my mouth. When I had eaten it, my stomach was made bitter.
11 又我に謂ふものあり、汝は多くの民族と國民と、國語と國王に就きて、再び預言せざるべからず、と。
They told me, "You must prophesy again about many peoples, nations, languages, and kings."
