ヨハネの黙示録 8
1 第一款 豫備の出現 [羔]第七の封印を解き給ひしかば、天上静まりかへる事半時間。
And when He opened the seventh seal, there was silence in heaven for about half an hour:
2 我又見たるに、七の天使神の御前に立ちて七の喇叭を授けられ、
and I saw the seven angels, that stood before God; and seven trumpets were given to them.
3 別に又一の天使、金の香炉を持來りて香台の上に立ち、多くの香を授けられしが、是諸聖人の祈に加へて、神の玉座の前なる金の香台の上に献げん為なり。
And another angel came and stood at the altar, having a golden censer; and there was given to Him much incense, that He might present it with the prayers of all the saints on the golden altar, which was before the throne.
4 斯て香の烟は、諸聖人の祈と共に天使の手より神の御前に立昇りしが、
And the smoke of the incense went up with the prayers of the saints, out of the hand of the angel, before God.
5 天使香炉を取り、之に香台の火を盛りて地に投げしかば、雷と聲と電光と大地震と起り、
And the angel took the censer, and filled it with fire of the altar, and cast it upon the earth: and there were voices, and thunders, and lightnings, and an earthquake.
6 又七の喇叭を持てる七の天使、喇叭を吹かん身構を為せり。
And the seven angels, that had the seven trumpets, prepared themselves to sound their trumpets.
7 第二款 初の六の喇叭 斯て第一の天使喇叭を吹きしに、血の雑りたる雹と火と起りて地に降らされ、地の三分の一燃上り、樹木の三分の一燃上り、緑草悉く焼盡されたり。
And the first angel sounded his trumpet, and there was hail and fire mingled with blood, and it was cast down upon the earth: and a third part of the trees and every green herb was burnt up.
8 第二の天使喇叭を吹きしに、火の燃ゆる大いなる山の如きもの海に投げられ、海の三分の一血に變じて、
And the second angel sounded, and I saw as it were a great mountain on fire cast into the sea, and a third part of the sea became blood.
9 海の中に活ける被造物の三分の一死し、船の三分の一も亡びたり。
And a third part of the creatures in the sea, that had life, died; and a third part of the ships were destroyed.
10 第三の天使喇叭を吹きしに、松明の如くに燃ゆる大いなる星天より落ちて、河の三分の一と水の源との上に落ちたり。
And the third angel sounded, and there fell from heaven a great star burning like a torch, and it fell upon a third part of the rivers, and the fountains of waters: and the name of the star is Wormwood;
11 此星は名を苦艾と云ひ、水の三分の一は苦艾の如くに成りて、水の苦く成りしが為に多くの人死せり。
and a third part of the waters became as wormwood: and many men died of the waters, because they were bitter.
12 第四の天使喇叭を吹きしに、日の三分の一と月の三分の一と打たれしかば、其三分の一は暗み、晝も三分の一は光らず、夜も亦同じ。
And the fourth angel sounded, and a third part of the sun was smitten, and a third part of the moon, and a third part of the stars; so that the third part of them was darkened, and the day lost a third part of it's light, and the night likewise.
13 我尚見たるに、天の中央を飛べる一の鷲聲高く、禍なる哉、禍なる哉、禍なる哉、地上に住める人々、尚喇叭を吹かんとする三の天使の聲によりて、と言へるを聞けり。
And I beheld, and heard an angel flying in the midst of heaven saying with a loud voice, Wo, wo, wo to the inhabitants on the earth from the other voices of the trumpet of the three angels, that are yet to sound.
