ヨハネの黙示録 7
1 第四款 中間の二の出現 其後我、四の天使地の四隅に立てるを見しが、彼等は地の四方の風を引止め、地上にも海上にも如何なる樹の上にも吹かざらしめんとせり。
After this I saw four angels standing at the four corners of the earth, holding the four winds of the earth, that no wind should blow on the earth, or on the sea, or upon any tree.
2 此外に又一の天使、活き給へる神の印を持ちて東より上るを見たり。此天使、海陸を害する事を許されたる四の天使に聲高く呼はりて、
And I saw another angel ascend from the sunrising, having the seal of the living God: and he cried with a great voice to the four angels to whom it was given to hurt the earth and the sea,
3 言ひけるは、我等我神の僕等の額に印するまで、海にも陸にも樹木にも触るること勿れ、と。
saying, Hurt not the earth, neither the sea, nor the trees, till we shall have sealed the servants of our God on their foreheads.
4 斯て我、イスラエルの子等の諸族中印せられたる者の數を聞きしに、印せられたる者十四萬四千人、
And I heard the number of them that were sealed, a hundred and forty and four thousand, sealed out of every tribe of the children of Israel:
5 即ちユダ族の中にて一萬二千人印せられ、ルベン族の中にて一萬二千人印せられ、ガド族の中にて一萬二千人印せられ、
Of the tribe of Judah [were] sealed twelve thousand; Of the tribe of Reuben twelve thousand; Of the tribe of Gad twelve thousand;
6 アゼル族の中にて一萬二千人印せられ、ネフタリ族の中にて一萬二千人印せられ、マナッセ族の中にて一萬二千人印せられ、
Of the tribe of Asher twelve thousand; Of the tribe of Naphtali twelve thousand; Of the tribe of Manasseh twelve thousand;
7 シメオン族の中にて一萬二千人印せられ、レヴィ族の中にて一萬二千人印せられ、イッサカアル族の中にて一萬二千人印せられ、
Of the tribe of Simeon twelve thousand; Of the tribe of Levi twelve thousand; Of the tribe of Issachar twelve thousand;
8 ザブロン族の中にて一萬二千人印せられ、ヨゼフ族の中にて一萬二千人印せられ、ベンヤミン族の中にて一萬二千人印せられたるなり。
Of the tribe of Zebulun twelve thousand; Of the tribe of Joseph twelve thousand; Of the tribe of Benjamin [were] sealed twelve thousand.
9 其後我、誰も數ふる事能はざる大群衆を見しが、諸國、諸族、諸民、諸語の中よりして、白き衣を着し、手に棕櫚の葉を持ちて、玉座の前、羔の目前に立ち、
After these things I saw, and behold, a great multitude, which no man could number, out of every nation and of [all] tribes and peoples and tongues, standing before the throne and before the Lamb, arrayed in white robes, and palms in their hands;
10 聲高く呼はりて言ひけるは、救霊は玉座に坐し給ふ我神及び羔に歸す、と。
and they cry with a great voice, saying, Salvation unto our God who sitteth on the throne, and unto the Lamb.
11 玉座と翁等と四の動物との周圍に立ち居たりし天使一同、玉座の前に平伏し、神を禮拝し奉りて、
And all the angels were standing round about the throne, and [about] the elders and the four living creatures; and they fell before the throne on their faces, and worshipped God,
saying, Amen: Blessing, and glory, and wisdom, and thanksgiving, and honor, and power, and might, [be] unto our God for ever and ever. Amen. (aiōn g165)
13 時に翁の一人答へて我に謂ひけるは、白き衣を着せる此人々は誰なるぞ、何處より來れるぞ、と。
And one of the elders answered, saying unto me, These that are arrayed in the white robes, who are they, and whence came they?
14 我、我君よ、汝こそ知れるなれ、と言ひしに翁我に謂ひけるは、此人々は大いなる患難より來り、羔の血に己が衣を洗ひて白く為したる者なり。
And I say unto him, My lord, thou knowest. And he said to me, These are they that come out of the great tribulation, and they washed their robes, and made them white in the blood of the Lamb.
15 故に神の玉座の前に在りて、其[聖]殿に於て日夜之に事へ奉り、又玉座に坐し給ふものは、彼等の上に幕屋を張り給ふべし。
Therefore are they before the throne of God; and they serve him day and night in his temple: and he that sitteth on the throne shall spread his tabernacle over them.
16 彼等最早飢渇く事なかるべく、日光も熱氣も彼等に中るべからず、
They shall hunger no more, neither thirst any more; neither shall the sun strike upon them, nor any heat:
17 其は玉座の正面に在せる羔彼等を牧して、之を生命の水の源に導き給ひ、神は彼等の目より凡ての涙を拭ひ給ふべければなり、と。
for the Lamb that is in the midst of the throne shall be their shepherd, and shall guide them unto fountains of waters of life: and God shall wipe away every tear from their eyes.
