Acts 1
1 I have made the former treatise, O Theophilus, of al that Jesus began to doe and teach,
テオピロよ、我さきに前の書をつくりて、凡そイエスの行ひはじめ教へはじめ給ひしより、
2 Vntill the day that hee was taken vp, after that hee through the holy Ghost, had giuen commandements vnto the Apostles, whome hee had chosen:
その選び給へる使徒たちに、聖 靈によりて命じたるのち、擧げられ給ひし日に至るまでの事を記せり。
3 To whome also he presented himselfe aliue after that he had suffered, by many infallible tokens, being seene of them by the space of fourtie daies, and speaking of those thinges which appertaine to the kingdome of God.
イエスは苦難をうけしのち、多くの慥なる證をもて、己の活きたることを使徒たちに示し、四十 日の間、しばしば彼らに現れて、神の國のことを語り、
4 And when he had gathered them together, he commanded them, that they should not depart from Hierusalem, but to waite for the promise of the Father, which sayde hee, yee haue heard of me.
また彼 等とともに集りゐて命じたまふ『エルサレムを離れずして、我より聞きし父の約束を待て。
5 For Iohn in deede baptized with water, but ye shall be baptized with the holy Ghost within these fewe daies.
ヨハネは水にてバプテスマを施ししが、汝らは日ならずして聖 靈にてバプテスマを施されん』
6 When they therefore were come together, they asked of him, saying, Lord, wilt thou at this time restore the kingdome to Israel?
弟子たち集れるとき問ひて言ふ『主よ、イスラエルの國を囘復し給ふは此の時なるか』
7 And hee saide vnto them, It is not for you to know the times, or the seasons, which the Father hath put in his owne power,
イエス言ひたまふ『時また期は父おのれの權威のうちに置き給へば、汝らの知るべきにあらず。
8 But yee shall receiue power of the holy Ghost, when he shall come on you: and ye shalbe witnesses vnto me both in Hierusalem and in all Iudea, and in Samaria, and vnto the vttermost part of the earth.
然れど聖 靈なんぢらの上に臨むとき、汝ら能力をうけん、而してエルサレム、ユダヤ全國、サマリヤ、及び地の極にまで我が證人とならん』
9 And when he had spoken these things, while they behelde, he was taken vp: for a cloude tooke him vp out of their sight.
此 等のことを言ひ終りて、彼らの見るがうちに擧げられ給ふ。雲これを受けて見えざらしめたり。
10 And while they looked stedfastly towarde heauen, as hee went, beholde, two men stoode by them in white apparell,
その昇りゆき給ふとき、彼ら天に目を注ぎゐたりしに、視よ、白き衣を著たる二人の人かたはらに立ちて言ふ、
11 Which also sayde, Yee men of Galile, why stande yee gasing into heauen? This Iesus which is taken vp from you into heauen, shall so come, as yee haue seene him goe into heauen.
『ガリラヤの人々よ、何ゆゑ天を仰ぎて立つか、汝らを離れて天に擧げられ給ひし此のイエスは、汝らが天に昇りゆくを見たるその如く復きたり給はん』
12 Then returned they vnto Hierusalem from the mount that is called the mount of Oliues, which is neere to Hierusalem, being from it a Sabbath daies iourney.
ここに彼 等オリブといふ山よりエルサレムに歸る。この山はエルサレムに近く、安息 日の道程なり。
13 And when they were come in, they went vp into an vpper chamber, where abode both Peter and Iames, and Iohn, and Andrew, Philip, and Thomas, Bartlemew, and Matthewe, Iames the sonne of Alpheus, and Simon Zelotes, and Iudas Iames brother.
既に入りてその留りをる高樓に登る。ペテロ、ヨハネ、ヤコブ及びアンデレ、ピリポ及びトマス、バルトロマイ及びマタイ、アルパヨの子ヤコブ、熱心 黨のシモン及びヤコブの子ユダなり。
14 These all continued with one accorde in prayer and supplication with the women, and Marie the mother of Iesus, and with his brethren.
この人々はみな女たち及びイエスの母マリヤ、イエスの兄弟たちと共に、心を一つにして只管いのりを務めゐたり。
15 And in those dayes Peter stoode vp in the middes of the disciples, and sayde (nowe the nomber of names that were in one place were about an hundreth and twentie.)
その頃ペテロ、百二十 名ばかり共に集りて群をなせる兄弟たちの中に立ちて言ふ、
16 Yee men and brethren, this scripture must needes haue beene fulfilled, which the holy Ghost by the mouth of Dauid spake before of Iudas, which was guide to them that tooke Iesus.
『兄弟たちよ、イエスを捕ふる者どもの手引となりしユダにつきて、聖 靈ダビデの口によりて預じめ言ひ給ひし聖書は、かならず成就せざるを得ざりしなり。
17 For hee was nombred with vs, and had obteined fellowship in this ministration.
彼は我らの中に數へられ、此の務に與りたればなり。
18 He therefore hath purchased a field with the reward of iniquitie: and when he had throwen downe himselfe headlong, hee brast asunder in the middes, and all his bowels gushed out.
（この人は、かの不義の價をもて地所を得、また俯伏に墜ちて直中より裂けて臓腑みな流れ出でたり。
19 And it is knowen vnto all the inhabitants of Hierusalem, in so much, that that field is called in their owne language, Aceldama, That is, the field of blood.
この事エルサレムに住む凡ての人に知られて、その地所は國語にてアケルダマと稱へらる、血の地所との義なり）
20 For it is written in the booke of Psalmes, Let his habitation be void, and let no man dwel therein: also, Let another take his charge.
それは詩 篇に録して「彼の住處は荒れ果てよ、人その中に住はざれ」と云ひ、又「その職はほかの人に得させよ」と云ひたり。
21 Wherefore of these men which haue companied with vs, all the time that the Lord Iesus was conuersant among vs,
然れば主イエス我等のうちに往來し給ひし間、
22 Beginning from the baptisme of Iohn vnto the day that hee was taken vp from vs, must one of them bee made a witnesse with vs of his resurrection.
即ちヨハネのバプテスマより始り、我らを離れて擧げられ給ひし日に至るまで、常に我らと偕に在りし此の人々のうち一人、われらと共に主の復活の證人となるべきなり』
23 And they presented two, Ioseph called Barsabas, whose surname was Iustus, and Matthias.
ここにバルサバと稱へられ、またの名をユストと呼ばるるヨセフ及びマツテヤの二人をあげ、
24 And they praied, saying, Thou Lord, which knowest the hearts of all men, shewe whether of these two thou hast chosen,
祈りて言ふ『凡ての人の心を知りたまふ主よ、ユダ己が所に往かんとて此の務と使徒の職とより墮ちたれば、その後を繼がするに、此の二人のうち孰を選び給ふか示したまへ』
25 That he may take the roume of this ministration and Apostleship, from which Iudas hath gone astray, to goe to his owne place.
祈りて言ふ『凡ての人の心を知りたまふ主よ、ユダ己が所に往かんとて此の務と使徒の職とより墮ちたれば、その後を繼がするに、此の二人のうち孰を選び給ふか示したまへ』
26 Then they gaue foorth their lottes: and the lotte fell on Matthias, and hee was by a common consent counted with the eleuen Apostles.
かくて鬮せしに、鬮はマツテヤに當りたれば、彼は十 一の使徒に加へられたり。
