1 Peter 5
1 Elders who [are] among you, I exhort [you], [as] a fellow-elder, and a witness of the sufferings of the Christ, and a partaker of the glory about to be revealed,
われ汝らの中なる長老たちに勸む（我は汝らと同じく長老たる者、またキリストの苦難の證人、顯れんとする榮光に與る者なり）
2 feed the flock of God that [is] among you, overseeing not by compulsion, but willingly, neither for shameful gain, but eagerly,
汝らの中にある神の群羊を牧へ。止むを得ずして爲さず、神に從ひて心より爲し、利を貪るために爲さず、悦びてなし、
3 neither as exercising lordship over the heritages, but becoming patterns for the flock,
委ねられたる者の主とならず、群羊の模範となれ。
4 and the Chief Shepherd having appeared, you will receive the unfading garland of glory.
さらば大牧者の現れ給ふとき、萎まざる光榮の冠冕を受けん。
5 In like manner, you young [ones], be subject to elders, and all subjecting yourselves to one another; clothe yourselves with humble-mindedness, because God resists the proud, but He gives grace to the humble;
若き者よ、なんぢら長老たちに服へ、かつ皆たがひに謙遜をまとへ『神は高ぶる者を拒ぎ、へりくだる者に恩惠を與へ給ふ』
6 be humbled, then, under the powerful hand of God, that He may exalt you in good time,
この故に神の能力ある御手の下に己を卑うせよ、さらば時に及びて神なんぢらを高うし給はん。
7 having cast all your care on Him, because He cares for you.
又もろもろの心勞を神に委ねよ、神なんぢらの爲に慮ぱかり給へばなり。
8 Be sober, vigilant, because your opponent the Devil walks around as a roaring lion, seeking whom he may swallow up,
愼みて目を覺しをれ、汝らの仇なる惡魔、ほゆる獅子のごとく歴迴りて呑むべきものを尋ぬ。
9 whom you must resist, steadfast in the faith, having known the same sufferings of your brotherhood to be accomplished in the world.
なんぢら信仰を堅うして彼を禦げ、なんぢらは世にある兄弟たちの同じ苦難に遭ふを知ればなり。
10 And the God of all grace, who called you to His perpetual glory in Christ Jesus, having suffered a little, Himself make you perfect, establish, strengthen, settle [you]; (aiōnios g166)
もろもろの恩惠の神、すなはち永遠の榮光を受けしめんとて、キリストによりて汝らを召し給へる神は、汝らが暫く苦難をうくる後、なんぢらを全うし、堅うし、強くして、その基を定め給はん。 (aiōnios g166)
願はくは權力 世々 限りなく神にあれ、アァメン。 (aiōn g165)
12 Through Silvanus, the faithful brother as I reckon, I wrote through few [words] to you, exhorting and testifying this to be the true grace of God in which you have stood.
われ忠實なる兄弟なりと思ふシルワノに由りて、簡單に書き贈りて汝らに勸め、かつ此は神の眞の恩惠なることを證す、汝 等この恩惠に立て。
13 She in Babylon chosen with you greets you, and my son Marcus.
汝らと共に選ばれてバビロンに在る教會、なんぢらに安否を問ふ、わが子マルコも安否を問ふ。
14 Greet one another in a kiss of love. Peace to you all who [are] in Christ Jesus! Amen.
なんぢら愛の接吻をもて互に安否を問へ。願はくはキリストに在る汝ら衆に平安あらんことを。
