Luke 16
1 AND he said also unto his disciples, There was a certain rich man, which had a steward; and the same was accused unto him that he had wasted his goods.
イエズス又弟子等に曰ひけるは、或富豪に一人の家令ありしが、主人の財産を浪費せりとて、訟出でられしかば、
2 And he called him, and said unto him, How is it that I hear this of thee? give an account of thy stewardship; for thou mayest be no longer steward.
主人彼を召び、我が汝に就きて聞く所は是何事ぞや、汝最早家令たるを得ざれば、家令たりし時の會計を差出せ、と云ひしに、
3 Then the steward said within himself, What shall I do? for my lord taketh away from me the stewardship: I cannot dig; to beg I am ashamed.
家令心の中に謂ひけるは、我主人家令の職を我より褫へる上は、我何を為すべきぞ、耕す事は叶はず、乞食するは羞し、
4 I am resolved what to do, that, when I am put out of the stewardship, they may receive me into their houses.
家令を罷められたる後、人々の家に承けられん為には、為すべき様こそあれ、とて、
5 So he called every one of his lord’s debtors unto him, and said unto the first, How much owest thou unto my lord?
主人に負債ある人々を呼集めて、初の一人に云ひけるは、我主人に對する汝の負債は幾許ぞ、と。
6 And he said, An hundred measures of oil. And he said unto him, Take thy bill, and sit down quickly, and write fifty.
彼、油百樽なり、と云ひしに、家令云ひけるは、汝の證書を取り、早く坐して五十と書け、と。
7 Then said he to another, And how much owest thou? And he said, An hundred measures of wheat. And he said unto him, Take thy bill, and write fourscore.
又次の者に云ひけるは、汝の負債は幾許ぞと、彼、麦百石なりと云ひしに、家令云ひけるは、汝の證書を取りて八十と書け、と。
8 And the lord commended the unjust steward, because he had done wisely: for the children of this world are in their generation wiser than the children of light. (aiōn g165)
然るに主人、此不正なる家令を誉めて、其手段を巧なりとせり。蓋此世の子等は互に光の子等よりも巧なればなり。 (aiōn g165)
9 And I say unto you, Make to yourselves friends of the mammon of unrighteousness; that, when ye fail, they may receive you into everlasting habitations. (aiōnios g166)
我も亦汝等に告ぐ、汝等不正の富を以て友人を作り、息絶えし後、汝等に永遠の住處に承入れしむべく為よ。 (aiōnios g166)
10 He that is faithful in that which is least is faithful also in much: and he that is unjust in the least is unjust also in much.
抑小事に忠なる人は大事にも亦忠なり、小事に不正なる人は大事にも亦不正なり。
11 If therefore ye have not been faithful in the unrighteous mammon, who will commit to your trust the true riches?
然れば汝等若し不正の富に於て忠ならざりせば、誰か眞の富を汝等に托せん。
12 And if ye have not been faithful in that which is another man’s, who shall give you that which is your own?
又他人の物に於て忠ならざりせば、誰か汝等の物を汝等に與へん。
13 No servant can serve two masters: for either he will hate the one, and love the other; or else he will hold to the one, and despise the other. Ye cannot serve God and mammon.
一人の僕は二人の主に兼事ふること能はず、或は一人を憎みて一人を愛し、或は一人に從ひて一人を疎むべければなり。汝等は神と富とに兼事ふること能はず、[と宣へり]。
14 And the Pharisees also, who were covetous, heard all these things: and they derided him.
然るに貪欲なるファリザイ人等、此始終の事を聞きて嘲りければ、
15 And he said unto them, Ye are they which justify yourselves before men; but God knoweth your hearts: for that which is highly esteemed among men is abomination in the sight of God.
イエズス彼等に曰ひけるは、汝等は人の前に自ら義とする者なり、然れど神は汝等の心を知り給ふ、蓋人に取りて高き者は、神の御前に憎むべき者なり。
16 The law and the prophets were until John: since that time the kingdom of God is preached, and every man presseth into it.
律法と預言者等とはヨハネを限とす、其時より神の國は宣傳へられ、人皆力を盡して之に到らんとす。
17 And it is easier for heaven and earth to pass, than one tittle of the law to fail.
天地の廃るは、律法の一画の墜つるよりは易し。
18 Whosoever putteth away his wife, and marrieth another, committeth adultery: and whosoever marrieth her that is put away from her husband committeth adultery.
総て妻を出して他に娶る人は姦淫を行ふ者なり、又夫より出されたる婦を娶る人は姦淫を行ふ者なり。
19 There was a certain rich man, which was clothed in purple and fine linen, and fared sumptuously every day:
曾て一人の富豪あり、緋色の布と亜麻布とを纏ひ、日々奢り暮らしたるに、
20 And there was a certain beggar named Lazarus, which was laid at his gate, full of sores,
又ラザルと云へる一人の乞食あり、全身腫縻れて富豪の門前に偃し、
21 And desiring to be fed with the crumbs which fell from the rich man’s table: moreover the dogs came and licked his sores.
其食卓より落つる屑に飽足らん事を欲すれども與ふる人なく、而も犬等來りて其腫物を舐り居たり。
22 And it came to pass, that the beggar died, and was carried by the angels into Abraham’s bosom: the rich man also died, and was buried;
然るに乞食死にければ、天使に携へられてアブラハムの懐に至りたるに、富豪も亦死して地獄に葬られしが、 (Hadēs g86)
23 And in hell he lift up his eyes, being in torments, and seeth Abraham afar off, and Lazarus in his bosom. (Hadēs g86)
苦痛の中に在りて、目を翹げて、遥にアブラハムと其懐なるラザルとを見、
24 And he cried and said, Father Abraham, have mercy on me, and send Lazarus, that he may dip the tip of his finger in water, and cool my tongue; for I am tormented in this flame.
叫びて云ひけるは、父アブラハムよ、我を憫みてラザルを遣はし、其指先を水に浸して我舌を冷させ給へ、我は此焔の中に甚く苦しめるを、と。
25 But Abraham said, Son, remember that thou in thy lifetime receivedst thy good things, and likewise Lazarus evil things: but now he is comforted, and thou art tormented.
アブラハム之に云ひけるは、子よ、汝が存命の間善き物を受け、ラザルが同じ間に惡き物を受けしを記憶せよ、然ればこそ今彼は慰められて汝は苦しむなれ。
26 And beside all this, between us and you there is a great gulf fixed: so that they which would pass from hence to you cannot; neither can they pass to us, that would come from thence.
加之、我等と汝等との間には大いなる淵の定置かれたれば、此處より汝等の處へ渡らんと欲するも叶はず、其處より此處に移る事も叶はざるなり、と。
27 Then he said, I pray thee therefore, father, that thou wouldest send him to my father’s house:
富豪又云ひけるは、然らば父よ、希はくはラザルを我父の家に遣はし、
28 For I have five brethren; that he may testify unto them, lest they also come into this place of torment.
我に兄弟五人あれば、彼等も亦此苦悩の處に來らざる様、之に證明せしめ給へ、と。
29 Abraham saith unto him, They have Moses and the prophets; let them hear them.
アブラハム之に云ひけるは、モイゼと預言者等とあれば、彼等は之に聴くべきなり、と。
30 And he said, Nay, father Abraham: but if one went unto them from the dead, they will repent.
富豪、否父アブラハムよ、然れど若死者の中より至る者あらば、彼等改心すべし、と云ひければ、
31 And he said unto him, If they hear not Moses and the prophets, neither will they be persuaded, though one rose from the dead.
アブラハム之に向ひて、若モイゼと預言者等とに聴かざる彼等ならば、假令死者の中より復活すとも信ぜざるべし、と云へり、と。
