Daniel 7
1 In year one of Belshazzar [the] king of Babylon Daniel a dream he saw and [the] visions of head his on bed his then dream the he wrote [the] head of matters he said.
バビロンの王ベルシャザルの元年に、ダニエルは床にあって夢を見、また脳中に幻を得たので、彼はその夢をしるして、その事の大意を述べた。
2 [was] replying Daniel and [was] saying seeing I was in vision my with night the and lo! [the] four [the] winds of heavens the [were] stirring up sea the great.
ダニエルは述べて言った、「わたしは夜の幻のうちに見た。見よ、天の四方からの風が大海をかきたてると、
3 And four beasts great [were] coming up from sea the [they were] different this [one] from this [one].
四つの大きな獣が海からあがってきた。その形は、おのおの異なり、
4 First the [was] like a lion and wings of an eagle [were] to it seeing I was until that they were plucked off wings its and it was lifted away from earth the and on two feet like a human it was made to stand and a heart of a human it was given to it.
第一のものは、ししのようで、わしの翼をもっていたが、わたしが見ていると、その翼は抜きとられ、また地から起されて、人のように二本の足で立たせられ、かつ人の心が与えられた。
5 And lo! a beast another a second [was] like a bear and to a side one it was raised and three ribs [were] in mouth its between (tooth its *Q(K)*) and as follows [they were] saying to it arise devour! flesh much.
見よ、第二の獣は熊のようであった。これはそのからだの一方をあげ、その口の歯の間に、三本の肋骨をくわえていたが、これに向かって『起きあがって、多くの肉を食らえ』と言う声があった。
6 After this seeing I was and lo! another like a leopard and to it wings four of a bird [were] on (back its *Q(K)*) and four heads [were] to beast the and dominion it was given to it.
その後わたしが見たのは、ひょうのような獣で、その背には鳥の翼が四つあった。またこの獣には四つの頭があり、主権が与えられた。
7 After this seeing I was in [the] visions of night the and lo! a beast (fourth *Q(k)*) [was] fearful and terrible and strong exceedingly and teeth of iron [were] to it great [it was] devouring and [it was] shattering and rest the (with foot its *Q(K)*) [it was] trampling and it [was] different from all beasts the which [was] before it and horns ten [were] to it.
その後わたしが夜の幻のうちに見た第四の獣は、恐ろしい、ものすごい、非常に強いもので、大きな鉄の歯があり、食らい、かつ、かみ砕いて、その残りを足で踏みつけた。これは、その前に出たすべての獣と違って、十の角を持っていた。
8 Considering I was horns the and lo! a horn another small it came up (between them *Q(K)*) and three of horns the former (they were uprooted *Q(K)*) from (before it *Q(k)*) and lo! eyes like [the] eyes of humankind [were] on horn the this and a mouth [was] speaking great [things].
わたしが、その角を注意して見ていると、その中に、また一つの小さい角が出てきたが、この小さい角のために、さきの角のうち三つがその根から抜け落ちた。見よ、この小さい角には、人の目のような目があり、また大きな事を語る口があった。
9 Seeing I was until that thrones they were placed and [one] ancient of days he sat clothing his - like snow [was] white and [the] hair of head his like wool [was] pure throne his [was] flames of fire wheels its [were] fire burning.
わたしが見ていると、もろもろのみ座が設けられて、日の老いたる者が座しておられた。その衣は雪のように白く、頭の毛は混じりもののない羊の毛のようであった。そのみ座は火の炎であり、その車輪は燃える火であった。
10 A river of fire [was] flowing and [was] coming out from before him a thousand of (thousands *Q(k)*) they were ministering to him and a myriad of (myriads *Q(k)*) before him they were standing court the it sat and books they were opened.
彼の前から、ひと筋の火の流れが出てきた。彼に仕える者は千々、彼の前にはべる者は万々、審判を行う者はその席に着き、かずかずの書き物が開かれた。
11 Seeing I was then from [the] sound of words the great which horn the [was] speaking seeing I was until that it was killed beast the and it was destroyed body its and it was given to [the] burning of fire.
わたしは、その角の語る大いなる言葉の声がするので見ていたが、わたしが見ている間にその獣は殺され、そのからだはそこなわれて、燃える火に投げ入れられた。
12 And [the] rest of beasts the they removed dominion their and a prolonging in life it was given to them until a time and a time.
その他の獣はその主権を奪われたが、その命は、時と季節の来るまで延ばされた。
13 Seeing I was in [the] visions of night the and lo! with [the] clouds of heavens the like a son of man coming he was and to [the] [one] ancient of days he reached and before him they brought near him.
わたしはまた夜の幻のうちに見ていると、見よ、人の子のような者が、天の雲に乗ってきて、日の老いたる者のもとに来ると、その前に導かれた。
14 And to him it was given dominion and honor and a kingdom and all peoples the nations the and languages the to him they will pay reverence dominion his [was] a dominion of perpetuity which not it will pass away and kingdom his which not it will be destroyed.
彼に主権と光栄と国とを賜い、諸民、諸族、諸国語の者を彼に仕えさせた。その主権は永遠の主権であって、なくなることがなく、その国は滅びることがない。
15 It was distressed spirit my I Daniel in [the] midst of [the] sheath and [the] visions of head my they alarmed me.
そこで、われダニエル、わがうちなる霊は憂え、わが脳中の幻は、わたしを悩ましたので、
16 I approached to one of [ones] standing the and truth the I was asking from him concerning all this and he said to me and [the] interpretation of matters the he made known to me.
わたしは、そこに立っている者のひとりに近寄って、このすべての事の真意を尋ねた。するとその者は、わたしにこの事の解き明かしを告げ知らせた。
17 These beasts the great which they [are] four four kings they will arise from earth the.
『この四つの大きな獣は、地に起らんとする四人の王である。
18 So they may receive kingdom the [the] holy [ones] of [the] Most High so they may take possession of kingdom the until perpetuity and until perpetuity of perpetuities.
しかしついには、いと高き者の聖徒が国を受け、永遠にその国を保って、世々かぎりなく続く』。
19 Then I desired to make certain concerning beast the fourth which it was different from (all of them *Q(K)*) [it was] terrible exceedingly (tooth its *Q(K)*) of iron and claws its of bronze [it was] devouring [it was] shattering and rest the with feet its [it was] trampling.
そこでわたしは、さらに第四の獣の真意を知ろうとした。その獣は他の獣と異なって、はなはだ恐ろしく、その歯は鉄、そのつめは青銅であって、食らい、かつ、かみ砕いて、その残りを足で踏みつけた。
20 And concerning horns the ten which [were] on head its and another [horn] which it came up (and they fell *Q(K)*) from (before it *Q(k)*) three [horns] and horn the this and eyes [were] to it and a mouth [was] speaking great [things] and appearance its [was] great more than companion its.
この獣の頭には、十の角があったが、そのほかに一つの角が出てきたので、この角のために、三つの角が抜け落ちた。この角には目があり、また大きな事を語る口があって、その形は、その同類のものよりも大きく見えた。
21 Seeing I was and horn the this [was] making war with [the] holy [ones] and [it was] prevailing to them.
わたしが見ていると、この角は聖徒と戦って、彼らに勝ったが、
22 Until that he came [the] [one] ancient of days and judgment it was given for [the] holy [ones] of [the] Most High and appointed time the it arrived and kingdom the they took possession of [the] holy [ones].
ついに日の老いたる者がきて、いと高き者の聖徒のために審判をおこなった。そしてその時がきて、この聖徒たちは国を受けた。
23 As follows he said beast the fourth a kingdom (fourth the *Q(k)*) it will be on earth the which it will be different from all kingdoms the so it may devour all earth the and it will tread down it and it will shatter it.
彼はこう言った、『第四の獣は地上の第四の国である。これはすべての国と異なって、全世界を併合し、これを踏みつけ、かつ打ち砕く。
24 And horns the ten from it kingdom the ten kings they will arise and another he will arise after them and he he will be different from former [kings] the and three kings he will bring low.
十の角はこの国から起る十人の王である。その後にまたひとりの王が起る。彼は先の者と異なり、かつ、その三人の王を倒す。
25 And words to [the] side of (Most High the *Q(k)*) he will speak and [the] holy [ones] of [the] Most High he will wear out so he may think to change appointed times and law so they may be given in hand his until a time and times and half of a time.
彼は、いと高き者に敵して言葉を出し、かつ、いと高き者の聖徒を悩ます。彼はまた時と律法とを変えようと望む。聖徒はひと時と、ふた時と、半時の間、彼の手にわたされる。
26 And court the it will sit and dominion his they will remove to annihilate and to destroy until end the.
しかし審判が行われ、彼の主権は奪われて、永遠に滅び絶やされ、
27 And kingdom the and dominion the and greatness the of kingdoms under all heavens the it was given to a people [the] holy [ones] of [the] Most High kingdom his [will be] a kingdom of perpetuity and all empires the to him they will pay reverence so they may obey.
国と主権と全天下の国々の権威とは、いと高き者の聖徒たる民に与えられる。彼らの国は永遠の国であって、諸国の者はみな彼らに仕え、かつ従う』。
28 To here end the of matter the I Daniel exceedingly - thoughts my they alarmed me and brightness my they were changed on me and matter the in heart my I have kept.
その事はここで終った。われダニエルは、これを思いまわして、非常に悩み、顔色も変った。しかし、わたしはこの事を心に留めた」。
