Revelation 4
1 After this I looked, and beholde, a doore was open in heauen, and the first voyce which I heard, was as it were of a trumpet talking with mee, saying, Come vp hither, and I will shewe thee things which must be done hereafter.
第一款 豫備の出現 其後我見たるに、折しも天に開けたる門あり、而して我が初に我に語るを聞きし喇叭の如き聲言ひけるは、此處に登れ、我此後に成るべき事を汝に示さん、と。
2 And immediatly I was rauished in the spirit, and behold, a throne was set in heauen, and one sate vpon the throne.
斯て我忽ち氣を奪はれたるが如くになりしに、折しも天に一の玉座備へられ、其玉座の上に坐し給ふものありて、
3 And he that sate, was to looke vpon, like vnto a iasper stone, and a sardine, and there was a rainbowe rounde about the throne, in sight like to an emeraude.
其坐し給ふものは碧玉及び赤條瑪瑙の象の如く、又玉座の周圍に緑玉の象の如き虹ありき。
4 And round about the throne were foure and twentie seates, and vpon the seates I sawe foure and twentie Elders sitting, clothed in white raiment, and had on their heads crownes of golde.
然て玉座の周圍に廿四の高座あり、其高座の上には白衣を纏ひて頭に金冠を戴ける廿四人の翁坐し居れり。
5 And out of the throne proceeded lightnings, and thundrings, and voyces, and there were seuen lampes of fire burning before the throne, which are the seuen spirits of God.
斯て玉座より電光と數多の聲と雷鳴と出でつつありしが、玉座の正面には輝く七の燈火あり、是即ち神の七霊なり。
6 And before the throne there was a sea of glasse like vnto chrystall: and in the middes of the throne, and round about the throne were foure beasts full of eyes before and behinde.
又玉座の前に水晶に似たる玻璃の海あり、玉座の中央と周圍とに、前後共に目にて満ちたる四の動物ありき。
7 And the first beast was like a lion, and the second beast like a calfe, and the thirde beast had a face as a man, and the fourth beast was like a flying Eagle.
第一の動物は獅子の如く、第二の動物は犢の如く、第三の動物は人の如き顔ありて、第四の動物は飛ぶ鷲の如し。
8 And the foure beasts had eche one of them sixe wings about him, and they were full of eyes within, and they ceased not day nor night, saying, Holy, holy, holy Lord God almighty, Which Was, and Which Is, and Which Is to come.
此四の動物各六の翼ありて、内外共に目にて満ち、晝夜絶間なく、聖なる哉、聖なる哉、聖なる哉、曾て在し、今も在し、又将に來り給ふべき全能の神にて在す主よ、と言ひ居れり。
9 And when those beasts gaue glorie, and honour, and thanks to him that sate on the throne, which liueth for euer and euer, (aiōn g165)
斯て此四の動物、玉座に坐し給ひて世々に限なく活き給ふものに、光榮と尊崇と感謝とを歸し奉るに、 (aiōn g165)
10 The foure and twentie Elders fell downe before him that sate on the throne and worshipped him that liueth for euermore, and cast their crownes before the throne, saying, (aiōn g165)
廿四人の翁、玉座に坐し給ふものの御前に平伏し、世々に限なく活き給ふものを禮拝し奉り、己が冠を玉座の前に投じつつ、 (aiōn g165)
11 Thou art worthy, O Lord, to receiue glory and honour, and power: for thou hast created all things, and for thy wils sake they are, and haue beene created.
主にて在す我等の神よ、主こそは光榮と尊崇と能力とを受け給ふべけれ、其は御自ら萬物を創造し給ひ、萬物の存在にして創造せられしは御旨によればなり、と言ひ居れり。
