< Jude 1 >
1 Jude, a servant of Jesus Christ, and brother of James, to those who are called, loved by God the Father, and kept for Jesus Christ:
イエス・キリストの僕にしてヤコブの兄弟なるユダ、書を召されたる者、すなはち父なる神に愛せられ、イエス・キリストの爲に守らるる者に贈る。
2 Mercy to you and peace and love be multiplied.
願はくは憐憫と平安と愛と、なんぢらに増さんことを。
3 Beloved, while I was very eager to write to you about our common salvation, I was constrained to write to you exhorting you to contend earnestly for the faith which was once for all delivered to the saints.
愛する者よ、われ我らが共に與る救につき勵みて汝らに書き贈らんとせしが、聖徒の一たび傳へられたる信仰のために戰はんことを勸むる書を、汝らに贈るを必要と思へり。
4 For there are certain people who crept in secretly, even those who were long ago written about for this condemnation: ungodly people, turning the grace of our God into sensuality, and denying our only Master and Lord, Jesus Christ.
そは敬虔ならずして我らの神の恩惠を好色に易へ、唯一の主なる我らの主イエス・キリストを否むものども潜り入りたればなり。彼らが此の審判を受くべきことは昔より預じめ録されたり。
5 Now I want to remind you, though you already know all these things, that the Lord, having saved a people out of the land of Egypt, afterward destroyed those who did not believe.
汝らは固より凡ての事を知れど、我さらに汝 等をして思ひ出さしめんとする事あり、即ち主エジプトの地より民を救ひ出して、後に信ぜぬ者を亡し給へり。
6 Angels who did not keep their first domain, but deserted their own dwelling place, he has kept in everlasting bonds under darkness for the judgment of the great day. (aïdios )
又おのが位を保たずして己が居所を離れたる御使を、大なる日の審判まで、闇黒のうちに長久の繩目をもて看守し給へり。 (aïdios )
7 Even as Sodom and Gomorrah, and the cities around them, having, in the same way as these, given themselves over to sexual immorality and gone after strange flesh, are set forth as an example, suffering the punishment of everlasting fire. (aiōnios )
ソドム、ゴモラ及びその周圍の町々も亦これと同じく、淫行に耽り、背倫の肉 慾に走り、永遠の火の刑罰をうけて鑑とせられたり。 (aiōnios )
8 Yet in like manner these also in their dreaming defile the flesh, despise authority, and blaspheme the glories.
かくの如くかの夢 見る者どもも肉を汚し、權威ある者を輕んじ、尊き者を罵る。
9 But Michael, the archangel, when contending with the devil and arguing about the body of Moses, dared not bring against him an abusive condemnation, but said, "May the Lord rebuke you."
御使の長ミカエル惡魔と論じてモーセの屍體を爭ひし時に、敢へて罵りて審かず、唯『ねがはくは主なんぢを戒め給はんことを』と云へり。
10 But these speak evil of whatever things they do not know. What they understand naturally, like the creatures without reason, they are destroyed in these things.
されど此の人々は知らぬことを罵り、無知の獸のごとく、自然に知る所によりて亡ぶるなり。
11 Woe to them. For they went in the way of Cain, and ran riotously in the error of Balaam for profit, and perished in Korah's rebellion.
禍害なるかな、彼らはカインの道にゆき、利のためにバラムの迷に走り、またコラの如き謀反によりて亡びたり。
12 These are hidden rocky reefs in your love feasts when they feast with you, shepherds who without fear feed themselves; clouds without water, carried along by winds; autumn leaves without fruit, twice dead, plucked up by the roots;
彼らは汝らと共に宴席に與り、その愛餐の暗礁たり、憚らずして自己をやしなふ牧者、風に逐はるる水なき雲、枯れて又かれ、根より拔かれたる果なき秋の木、
13 wild waves of the sea, foaming out their own shame; wandering stars, for whom the blackness of darkness has been reserved forever. (aiōn )
おのが恥を湧き出す海のあらき波、さまよふ星なり。彼らの爲に暗き闇、とこしへに蓄へ置かれたり。 (aiōn )
14 About these also Hanoch, the seventh from Adam, prophesied, saying, "Look, the Lord comes with ten thousands of his holy ones,
アダムより七代に當るエノク彼らに就きて預言せり。曰く『視よ、主はその聖なる千萬の衆を率ゐて來りたまへり。
15 to execute judgment on all, and to convict every person of all their works of ungodliness which they have done in an ungodly way, and of all the hard things which ungodly sinners have spoken against him."
これ凡ての人の審判をなし、すべて敬虔ならぬ者の不 敬虔を行ひたる不 敬虔の凡ての業と、敬虔ならぬ罪人の、主に逆ひて語りたる凡ての甚だしき言とを責め給はんとてなり』
16 These are murmurers and complainers, walking after their lusts (and their mouth speaks proud things), showing respect of persons to gain advantage.
彼らは呟くもの、不滿をならす者にして、おのが慾に隨ひて歩み、口に誇をかたり、利のために人に諂ふなり。
17 But you, beloved, remember the words which have been spoken before by the apostles of our Lord Jesus Christ.
愛する者よ、汝らは我らの主イエス・キリストの使徒たちの預じめ言ひし言を憶えよ。
18 They said to you that "In the end time there will be mockers, walking after their own ungodly lusts."
即ち汝らに曰らく『末の時に嘲る者おこり、己が不 敬虔なる慾に隨ひて歩まん』と。
19 These are they who cause divisions, and are sensual, not having the Spirit.
彼らは分裂をなし、情 慾に屬し、御靈を有たぬ者なり。
20 But you, beloved, keep building yourselves up in your most holy faith, praying in the Holy Spirit.
されど愛する者よ、なんぢらは己がいと潔き信仰の上に徳を建て、聖 靈によりて祈り、
21 Keep yourselves in the love of God, looking for the mercy of our Lord Jesus Christ to everlasting life. (aiōnios )
神の愛のうちに己をまもり、永遠の生命を得るまで我らの主イエス・キリストの憐憫を待て。 (aiōnios )
22 And be merciful on those who doubt,
また彼らの中なる疑ふ者をあはれみ、
23 and some save, snatching them out of the fire, and on some have mercy with fear; hating even the clothing stained by the flesh.
或 者を火より取出して救ひ、或 者をその肉に汚れたる下衣をも厭ひ、かつ懼れつつ憐め。
24 Now to him who is able to keep you from stumbling, and to present you faultless before the presence of his glory in great joy,
願はくは汝らを守りて躓かしめず、瑕なくして榮光の御前に歡喜をもて立つことを得しめ給ふ者、
25 to the only God our Savior, through Jesus Christ our Lord, be glory and majesty, dominion and power, both now and forever. Amen. (aiōn )
即ち我らの救主なる唯一の神に、榮光・稜威・權力・權威、われらの主イエス・キリストに由りて、萬 世の前にも今も萬 世までも在らんことを、アァメン (aiōn )
