Revelation 14
1 Then I looked and saw the Lamb standing on Mount Zion, and with Him 144,000 who had His name and His Father’s name written on their foreheads.
第四款 羔及び童貞者 我又見たるに、折しも羔シオン山に立ち給ひ、其御名及び父の御名を額に印されたる十四萬四千人之と共に在り。
2 And I heard a sound from heaven like the roar of many waters and the loud rumbling of thunder. And the sound I heard was like harpists strumming their harps.
我又天よりの聲を聞きしが、大水の聲の如く、又大いなる雷の聲の如くにして、又此我が聞きし聲は弾琴者の其琴を弾ずるが如し。
3 And they sang a new song before the throne and before the four living creatures and the elders. And no one could learn the song except the 144,000 who had been redeemed from the earth.
斯て彼等、玉座の前、四の動物と翁等との前に於て、新しき賛美歌の如きものを謳ひ居りしが、地上より贖はれたる彼十四萬四千人の外、誰も此賛美歌を唱うる事能はざりき。
4 These are the ones who have not been defiled with women, for they are virgins. They follow the Lamb wherever He goes. They have been redeemed from among men as firstfruits to God and to the Lamb.
彼等は女に触れず汚されざるもの、蓋童貞者たるなり。彼等は何處にもあれ羔の往き給ふ處に從ひ、人間の中より、初穂として、神と羔との為に贖はれたる者にして、
5 And no lie was found in their mouths; they are blameless.
其口に僞ありし事なく、神の玉座の御前に汚なき者なり。
6 Then I saw another angel flying overhead, with the eternal gospel to proclaim to those who dwell on the earth—to every nation and tribe and tongue and people. (aiōnios g166)
第五款 三の天使神の宣告を傳ふ 又見たるに、別に天の中央を飛べる一の天使あり、地上に住める人と、諸國、諸族、諸語、諸民とに福音を告げん為に、永遠の福音を携へ、 (aiōnios g166)
7 And he said in a loud voice, “Fear God and give Him glory, because the hour of His judgment has come. Worship the One who made the heavens and the earth and the sea and the springs of waters.”
聲高く言ひけるは、汝等主を畏れて之に尊榮を歸し奉れ、蓋其審判の時は至れり、天地と海と水の源とを造り給へるものを禮拝し奉れ、と。
8 Then a second angel followed, saying, “Fallen, fallen is Babylon the great, who has made all the nations drink the wine of the passion of her immorality.”
又別に一の天使、其後に從ひて言ひけるは、倒れたり倒れたり、私通の為に起せる怒の酒を萬民に飲ませし彼大いなるバビロネは、と。
9 And a third angel followed them, calling out in a loud voice, “If anyone worships the beast and its image, and receives its mark on his forehead or on his hand,
又第三の天使、彼等の後に從ひて聲高く言ひけるは、若獣と其像とを拝し、己が額若くは右の手に其印章を受けたる人あらば、
10 he too will drink the wine of God’s anger, poured undiluted into the cup of His wrath. And he will be tormented in fire and sulfur in the presence of the holy angels and of the Lamb.
彼も亦神の御怒の酒、即ち御怒の杯に物を雑へずして盛りたる酒を飲むべく、又聖なる天使等の前及び羔の御前に、火と硫黄とを以て苦しめらるべし、
11 And the smoke of their torment rises forever and ever. Day and night there is no rest for those who worship the beast and its image, or for anyone who receives the mark of its name.” (aiōn g165)
而して其刑罰の烟は世々に限なく立昇り、獣と其像とを拝せし人々と彼の名の印章を受けし者等とは、夜晝休息なかるべし。 (aiōn g165)
12 Here is a call for the perseverance of the saints who keep the commandments of God and the faith of Jesus.
神の掟とイエズスに於る信仰とを保てる聖人等の忍耐は茲に在り、と。
13 And I heard a voice from heaven telling me to write, “Blessed are the dead—those who die in the Lord from this moment on.” “Yes,” says the Spirit, “they will rest from their labors, for their deeds will follow them.”
斯て天より聲ありて我に斯く言へるを聞けり、書記せ、福なる哉今より主に於て死する死人、[聖]霊曰はく、然り、彼等が其働を息まん為なり、其は其業之に從へばなり、と。
14 And I looked and saw a white cloud, and seated on the cloud was One like the Son of Man, with a golden crown on His head and a sharp sickle in His hand.
第六款 人の子及び刈取 又見たるに、折しも白き雲ありて、其雲の上には人の子の如きもの、頭に金の冠を戴き、手に利き鎌を持ちて坐し居れり。
15 Then another angel came out of the temple, crying out in a loud voice to the One seated on the cloud, “Swing Your sickle and reap, because the time has come to harvest; for the crop of the earth is ripe.”
又別に一の天使、[聖]殿より出でて、雲の上に坐せるものに向ひ、聲高く呼はりけるは、地上の穀物は熟したるが故に、刈取るべき時は來れり、汝其鎌を入れて刈取れ、と。
16 So the One seated on the cloud swung His sickle over the earth, and the earth was harvested.
斯て雲の上に坐せるもの、其鎌を地に入れしかば、地の面は刈取られたり。
17 Then another angel came out of the temple in heaven, and he too had a sharp sickle.
又別に一の天使、天に在る[聖]殿より出でしが、彼も亦利き釜を持てり。
18 Still another angel, with authority over the fire, came from the altar and called out in a loud voice to the angel with the sharp sickle, “Swing your sharp sickle and gather the clusters of grapes from the vine of the earth, because its grapes are ripe.”
又別に火を司る権威を有せる一の天使、香台より出でて、利き鎌を持てるものに對ひ、聲高く呼はりて言ひけるは、地上の葡萄は熟したるが故に、汝利き鎌を入れて葡萄の房を刈取れ、と。
19 So the angel swung his sickle over the earth and gathered the grapes of the earth, and he threw them into the great winepress of God’s wrath.
斯て天使其利き鎌を地に入れて地上の葡萄を刈取り、神の御怒の大いなる搾槽に入れ、
20 And the winepress was trodden outside the city, and the blood that flowed from it rose as high as the bridles of the horses for a distance of 1,600 stadia.
其搾槽は市外に於て踏籍けられしが、血搾槽より出でて、馬の轡に達くほど、七十五里の間に弘がれり。
