Daniel 11
1 “And I, in the first year of Darius the Mede, stood up to strengthen and protect him.
我はまたメデア人ダリヨスの元年にかれを助け彼に力をそへたる事ありしなり
2 Now then, I will tell you the truth: Three more kings will arise in Persia, and then a fourth, who will be far richer than all the others. By the power of his wealth, he will stir up everyone against the kingdom of Greece.
我いま眞實を汝に示さん視よ此後ペルシヤに三人の王興らんその第四の者は富ること一切の者に勝りその富強の大なるを恃みて一切を激發してギリシヤの國を攻ん
3 Then a mighty king will arise, who will rule with great authority and do as he pleases.
また一箇の強き王おこり大なる威權を振ふて世を治めその意のままに事を爲ん
4 But as soon as he is established, his kingdom will be broken up and parceled out toward the four winds of heaven. It will not go to his descendants, nor will it have the authority with which he ruled, because his kingdom will be uprooted and given to others.
但し彼の正に旺盛なる時にその國は破裂して天の四方に分れん其は彼の兒孫に歸せず又かれの振ひしほどの威權あらず即ち彼の國は抜とられて是等の外なる者等に歸せん
5 The king of the South will grow strong, but one of his commanders will grow even stronger and will rule his own kingdom with great authority.
南の王は強からん然どその大臣の一人これに逾て強くなり威權を振はんその威權は大なる威權なるべし
6 After some years they will form an alliance, and the daughter of the king of the South will go to the king of the North to seal the agreement. But his daughter will not retain her position of power, nor will his strength endure. At that time she will be given up, along with her royal escort and her father and the one who supported her.
年を經て後彼等相結ばん即ち南の王の女子北の王に適て和好を圖らん然どその腕には力なしまたその王およびその腕は立ことを得じこの女とこれを導ける者とこれを生せたる者とこれに力をつけたる者はみな時におよびて付されん
7 But one from her family line will rise up in his place, come against the army of the king of the North, and enter his fortress, fighting and prevailing.
斯て後この女の根より出たる芽興りて之に代り北の王の軍勢にむかひて來りこれが城に打いりて之を攻て勝を得
8 He will take even their gods captive to Egypt, with their metal images and their precious vessels of silver and gold. For some years he will stay away from the king of the North,
之が神々鑄像および金銀の貴き器具をエジプトに携へさらん彼は北の王の上に立て年を重ねん
9 who will invade the realm of the king of the South and then return to his own land.
彼南の王の國に打入ことあらん然ど自己の國に退くべし
10 But his sons will stir up strife and assemble a great army, which will advance forcefully, sweeping through like a flood, and will again carry the battle as far as his fortress.
その子等また憤激して許多の大軍を聚め進みきたり溢れて往來しその城まで攻寄せん
11 In a rage, the king of the South will march out to fight the king of the North, who will raise a large army, but it will be delivered into the hand of his enemy.
是において南の王大に怒り出きたりて北の王と戰ふべし彼大軍を興してこれに當らん然れどもその軍兵はこれが手に付されん
12 When the army is carried off, the king of the South will be proud in heart and will cast down tens of thousands, but he will not triumph.
大軍すなはち興りて彼心に高ぶり數萬人を仆さん然れどもその勢力はこれがために増さじ
13 For the king of the North will raise another army, larger than the first, and after some years he will advance with a great army and many supplies.
また北の王は退きて初よりも大なる軍兵を興し或時すなはち或年數を經て後かならず大兵を率ゐ莫大の輜重を備へて攻來らん
14 In those times many will rise up against the king of the South. Violent ones among your own people will exalt themselves in fulfillment of the vision, but they will fail.
是時にあたりて衆多の者興りて南の王に敵せん又なんぢの民の中の奸惡人等みづから高ぶりて事を爲しつひに預言をして應ぜしめん即ち彼らは自ら仆るべし
15 Then the king of the North will come, build up a siege ramp, and capture a fortified city. The forces of the South will not stand; even their best troops will not be able to resist.
茲に北の王襲ひきたり壘を築きて堅城を攻おとさん南の王の腕はこれに當ることを得じ又その撰抜の民もこれに當る力なかるべし
16 The invader will do as he pleases, and no one will stand against him. He will establish himself in the Beautiful Land, with destruction in his hand.
之に攻きたる者はその意に任せて事をなさんその前に立ことを得る者なかるべし彼は美しき地に到らんその地はこれがために荒さるべし
17 He will resolve to come with the strength of his whole kingdom, and will reach an agreement with the king of the South. He will give him a daughter in marriage in order to overthrow the kingdom, but his plan will not succeed or help him.
彼その全國の力を盡して打入んとその面をこれに向べけれどまたこれと和好をなして婦人の女子を之に與へん然るにその婦人の女子は之がために身を滅すに至り何事をも成あたはす毫も彼のために益する所なかるべし
18 Then he will turn his face to the coastlands and capture many of them. But a commander will put an end to his reproach and will turn it back upon him.
彼またその面を島々にむけて之を多く取らん茲に一人の大將ありて彼が與へたる恥辱を雪ぎその恥辱をかれの身に與へかへさん
19 After this, he will turn back toward the fortresses of his own land, but he will stumble and fall and be no more.
かくて彼その面を自己の國の城々に向ん而して終に躓き仆れて亡ん
20 In his place one will arise who will send out a tax collector for the glory of the kingdom; but within a few days he will be destroyed, though not in anger or in battle.
彼に代りて興る者は榮光の國に人を出して租税を征斂しめん但し彼は忿怒にも戰門にもよらずして數日の内に滅亡せん
21 In his place a despicable person will arise; royal honors will not be given to him, but he will come in a time of peace and seize the kingdom by intrigue.
また之にかはりて起る者は賤まるる者にして國の尊榮これに歸せざらん然れども彼不意に來り巧言をもて國を獲ん
22 Then a flood of forces will be swept away before him and destroyed, along with a prince of the covenant.
洪水のごとき軍勢かれのために押流されて敗れん契約の君たる者も然らん
23 After an alliance is made with him, he will act deceitfully; for he will rise to power with only a few people.
彼は之に契約をむすびて後詭計を行ひ上りきたりて僅少の民をもて勢を得ん
24 In a time of peace, he will invade the richest provinces and do what his fathers and forefathers never did. He will lavish plunder, loot, and wealth on his followers, and he will plot against the strongholds—but only for a time.
彼すなはち不意にきたりてその國の膏腴なる處に攻いりその父もその父の父も爲ざりしところの事を行はん彼はその奪ひたる物掠めたる物および財寳を衆人の中に散すべし彼は謀略をめぐらして堅固なる城々を攻取べし時の至るまで斯のごとくならん
25 And with a large army he will stir up his power and his courage against the king of the South, who will mobilize a very large and powerful army but will not withstand the plots devised against him.
彼はその勢力を奮ひ心を勵まし大軍を率ゐて南の王に攻よせん南の王もまた自ら奮ひ甚だ大なる強き軍勢をもて迎へ戰はん然ど謀略をめぐらして攻るが故にこれに當ることを得ざるべし
26 Those who eat from his provisions will seek to destroy him; his army will be swept away, and many will fall slain.
すなはち彼の珍膳に與り食ふ者彼を倒さんその軍兵溢れん打死する者衆かるべし
27 And the two kings, with their hearts bent on evil, will speak lies at the same table, but to no avail, for still the end will come at the appointed time.
此二人の王は害をなさんと心にはかり同席に共に食して詭計を言ん然どもその志ならざるべし定まれる時のいたる迄は其事終らじ
28 The king of the North will return to his land with great wealth, but his heart will be set against the holy covenant; so he will do damage and return to his own land.
彼は莫大の財寳をもちて自己の國に歸らん彼は聖約に敵する心を懐きて事をなし而してその國にかへらん
29 At the appointed time he will invade the South again, but this time will not be like the first.
定まれる時にいたりて彼また進みて南に到らん然ど後の模樣は先の模樣のごとくならざらん
30 Ships of Kittim will come against him, and he will lose heart. Then he will turn back and rage against the holy covenant and do damage. So he will return and show favor to those who forsake the holy covenant.
即ちキツテムの船かれに到るべければ彼力をおとして還り聖約にむかひて忿怒をもらして事をなさん而して彼歸りゆき聖約を棄る者と相謀らん
31 His forces will rise up and desecrate the temple fortress. They will abolish the daily sacrifice and set up the abomination of desolation.
彼より腕おこりて聖所すなはち堅城を汚し常供の物を撤除かせかつ殘暴可惡者を立ん
32 With flattery he will corrupt those who violate the covenant, but the people who know their God will firmly resist him.
彼はまた契約に關て罪を獲る者等を巧言をもて引誘して背かせん然どその神を知る人々は力ありて事をなさん
33 Those with insight will instruct many, though for a time they will fall by sword or flame, or be captured or plundered.
民の中の頴悟者ども衆多の人を敎ふるあらん然ながら彼らは暫時の間刃にかかり火にやかれ擄はれ掠められ等して仆れん
34 Now when they fall, they will be granted a little help, but many will join them insincerely.
その仆るる時にあたりて彼らは少しく扶助を獲ん又衆多の人詐りて彼らに合せん
35 Some of the wise will fall, so that they may be refined, purified, and made spotless until the time of the end, for it will still come at the appointed time.
また穎悟者等の中にも仆るる者あらん斯のごとく彼らの中に試むる事淨むる事潔よくする事おこなはれて終の時にいたらん即ち定まれる時まで然るべし
36 Then the king will do as he pleases and will exalt and magnify himself above every god, and he will speak monstrous things against the God of gods. He will be successful until the time of wrath is completed, for what has been decreed must be accomplished.
此王その意のままに事をおこなひ萬の神に逾て自己を高くし自己を大にし神々の神たる者にむかひて大言を吐き等して忿怒の息む時までその志を得ん其はその定まれるところの事成ざるべからざればなり
37 He will show no regard for the gods of his fathers, nor for the one desired by women, nor for any other god, because he will magnify himself above them all.
彼はその先祖の神々を顧みず婦女の愉快を思はずまた何の神をも顧みざらん其は彼一切に逾て自己を大にすればなり
38 And in their place, he will honor a god of fortresses—a god his fathers did not know—with gold, silver, precious stones, and riches.
彼は之の代に軍神を崇め金銀珠玉および寳物をもてその先祖等の識ざりし神を崇めん
39 He will attack the strongest fortresses with the help of a foreign god and will greatly honor those who acknowledge him, making them rulers over many and distributing the land for a price.
彼はこの異邦の神に由り要害の城々にむかひて事を爲ん凡て彼を尊ぶ者には彼加ふるに榮を以てし之をして衆多の人を治めしめ土地をこれに分ち與へて賞賜とせん
40 At the time of the end, the king of the South will engage him in battle, but the king of the North will storm out against him with chariots, horsemen, and many ships, invading many countries and sweeping through them like a flood.
終の時にいたりて南の王彼と戰はん北の王は車と馬と衆多の船をもて大風のごとく之に攻寄せ國に打いりて潮のごとく溢れ渉らん
41 He will also invade the Beautiful Land, and many countries will fall. But these will be delivered from his hand: Edom, Moab, and the leaders of the Ammonites.
彼はまた美しき國に進み入ん彼のために亡ぶる者多かるべし然どエドム、モアブ、アンモン人の中の第一なる者などは彼の手を免かれん
42 He will extend his power over many countries, and not even the land of Egypt will escape.
彼國々にその手を伸さんエジプトの地も免かれがたし
43 He will gain control of the treasures of gold and silver and over all the riches of Egypt, and the Libyans and Cushites will also submit to him.
彼は遂にエジプトの金銀財寳を手に入れんリブア人とエテオピア人は彼の後に從はん
44 But news from the east and the north will alarm him, and he will go out with great fury to destroy many and devote them to destruction.
彼東と北より報知を得て周章ふためき許多の人を滅し絶んと大に忿りて出ゆかん
45 He will pitch his royal tents between the sea and the beautiful holy mountain, but he will meet his end with no one to help him.
彼は海の間において美しき聖山に天幕の宮殿をしつらはん然ど彼つひにその終にいたらん之を助くる者なかるべし
