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、
And I saw another, a mighty messenger, descending out of heaven, —arrayed with a cloud, and, the rainbow, was upon his head, and, his face, was as the sun, and, his feet, were as 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、
and [he was] holding in his hand a little scroll, opened; and he set his right foot upon the sea, and his left upon 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。
and cried out with a loud voice, just as a lion, roareth. And, when he cried out, the seven thunders uttered their own 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。
And, when the seven thunders had spoken, I was about to write, and I heard a voice out of heaven, saying—Seal up the things which the seven thunders have uttered, 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、
And, the messenger, whom I saw standing upon the sea and upon the land, lifted up his right hand unto heaven,
and sware, by him that liveth unto the ages of ages, who created heaven, and the things that are therein, and the earth, and the things that are therein, [and the sea, and the things that are therein, ] Delay, no longer, shall there be; (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 sounding of the seventh messenger, as soon as he is about to blow his trumpet, then shall have been completed the sacred secret of God as he told the good-news unto his own 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、
And, the voice which I had heard out of heaven, [I] again [heard] talking with me; and saying—Go take the opened scroll, that is in the hand of the messenger who is standing upon the sea and upon 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。
And I went away unto the messenger, asking him to give me the little scroll; and he saith unto me—Take it, and eat it up; and it shall embitter thy belly, but, in thy mouth, shall be 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。
And I took the little scroll out of the hand of the messenger, and did eat it up; and it was, in my mouth, as honey, sweet, and, when I had eaten it, embittered was my belly.
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。
And they say unto me—It behoveth thee again to prophesy against peoples and nations and tongues, and many kings.
