< ヨハネの黙示録 11 >

1 斯て我杖の如き葦の測量竿與へられて謂れけるは、起きよ、神の聖殿と祭壇と、其處に禮拝する人々とを度れ。
AND there was given me a cane like a measuring staff; and the angel stood by, saying, Arise, and measure the temple of God, and the altar, and those who worship therein.
2 然れど殿外の庭は、措きて之を度ること勿れ、其は異邦人に委ねられたればなり。而して彼等は四十二箇月の間、聖なる都を踏荒さんとす。
But the exterior court of the temple leave out, and measure it not; because it is given to the Gentiles: and they shall trample under foot the holy city forty-two months.
3 我わが二個の證人に力を與へん、斯て彼等毛衣を着て、一千二百六十日の間預言すべし。
And I will give charge to my two witnesses, and they shall prophesy a thousand two hundred and sixty days, clothed in sackcloth.
4 彼等は地の主の御前に立てる二の橄欖樹、二の燈台なり。
These are the two olive trees, and the two lamps which stand before the face of the God of the earth.
5 若是等を害せんとする人あらば、火其口より出でて其敵を亡ぼさん。若彼等を傷はんとする人あらば、斯の如くにして亡ぼさるべし。
And if any person attempts to hurt them, fire proceedeth out of their mouth, and devoureth their enemies: and if any person attempts to injure them, he must thus be slain.
6 彼等は預言する間、雨をして降らざらしむべく、天を閉づる力あり、又水をして血に變ぜしめ、思ふが儘に幾度も有らゆる天災を以て地を打つの力あり。
These have power to shut up the heaven, that no rain water the earth during the days of their prophecy: and they have power over the waters to turn them into blood, and to smite the earth with every plague, as often as they will.
7 彼等其證明を終へたらん後は、底なき淵より上る獣ありて彼等と戰を為し、勝ちて之を殺すべく、 (Abyssos g12)
And when they shall have finished their testimony, the beast which ascendeth out of hell shall make war with them, and shall overcome them, and put them to death. (Abyssos g12)
8 其屍は例へばソドマともエジプトとも名づけらるる大都會、即ち彼等の主の十字架に釘けられ給ひし所の衢に遺らん。
And their corpses shall be exposed in the streets of the great city, which is called spiritually Sodom and Egypt, where also our Lord was crucified.
9 且諸族、諸民、諸語、諸國に属する人、三日半の間其屍を見るも之を墓に収むるを許さじ。
And they of the people and tribes and tongues and nations will look upon their corpses three days and half, and they will not permit their corpses to be laid in sepulchres.
10 地上に住める人は之が為に歓樂しみ、且互に禮物を贈らん、其は彼二人の預言者地上の人を苦しめたればなり。
And the dwellers upon earth will rejoice over them, and be very glad, and will send gifts to each other; because these two prophets were a torment to those who dwell on the earth.
11 然れども三日半の後は、生命の霊神よりして彼等に入り、彼等足にて立ち、之を見たる人々は大いに懼を懐きしが、
And after three days and half, the spirit of life from God entered into them, and they stood up on their feet; and great terror fell on those who beheld them.
12 天より大いなる聲聞えて、此處に昇れと言ひしかば、彼等雲に乗りて天に昇り、彼等之を見たり。
And they heard a great voice out of heaven, saying unto them, Ascend up hither. And they ascended into heaven in a cloud: and their enemies beheld them.
13 尚其時大いなる地震ありて、市の十分の一は倒れ、七千人の人地震の為に殺され、殘れる者は懼しさに堪へず、天の神に光榮を歸し奉れり。
And in the same hour there was a great earthquake, and the tenth part of the city fell, and there were slain in the earthquake seven thousand men of note: and the rest were affrighted, and gave glory to the God of heaven.
14 第二の禍過去りて第三の禍将に來らんとす。
The second woe is past; behold the third woe is coming quickly.
15 第四款 第七の喇叭神の國を報ず 第七の天使喇叭を吹きしかば、天に大いなる聲響きて言ひけるは、此世の國は我主と其キリストとのものと成りたれば、世々に限なく統治し給ふべし、アメン、と。 (aiōn g165)
And the seventh angel sounded; and there were great voices in heaven, saying, The kingdoms of the world are become our Lord’s, and his Messiah’s, and he shall reign for ever and ever. (aiōn g165)
16 是に於て神の御前に、己が座に坐し居たりし廿四人の翁、平伏して神を禮拝し、
And the four and twenty presbyters, who were seated before God upon their thrones, fell upon their faces, and worshipped God,
17 然て言ひけるは、曾て在し、今も在し、且來り給ふべき全能の神にて在す主よ、我等汝に感謝し奉る、其は、己が大いなる能力を執りて統治し給へばなり。
saying, We give thanks to thee, Lord the Almighty God, who is and who was, and who is coming, because thou hast assumed thy great power, and hast set up the throne of thy kingdom.
18 諸國民怒を起したるに、主の御怒亦來れり、且死者審判せられて、主の僕なる預言者、聖人等、及び大小を問はず御名を畏める人々に報を與へ、地上を腐敗せしめたる人々を亡ぼし給ふ時來れり、と。
Though the nations were incensed, yet thy wrath came, and the time of the dead to be judged, and to give the reward to thy servants the prophets, and to the saints, and to all who fear thy name, to the small and to the great; and to destroy those who have destroyed the earth.
19 斯て天に於て神の聖殿開け、神の契約の櫃其聖殿に現れ、電光と多くの聲と地震と大いなる雹と起れり。
And the temple of God was opened in the heaven, and there appeared the ark of his covenant in his temple: and there were lightnings, and voices, and thunders, and earthquake, and a great hail.
