Romans 16
1 [By means of this letter] I am introducing and recommending to you our fellow believer Phoebe, [who will be taking this letter to you]. She is a deacon in the congregation in Cenchrea [city].
ケンクレヤにある教会の執事、わたしたちの姉妹フィベを、あなたがたに紹介する。
2 [I request that] you receive her because of her relationship with the Lord. [You should do that because] those who are God’s people ought to receive [their fellow believers]. [I am also requesting] that you help her [by giving her] [EUP] whatever she needs, because she has helped many people, including me.
どうか、聖徒たるにふさわしく、主にあって彼女を迎え、そして、彼女があなたがたにしてもらいたいことがあれば、何事でも、助けてあげてほしい。彼女は多くの人の援助者であり、またわたし自身の援助者でもあった。
3 Tell Priscilla and [her husband] Aquila that I (send greetings to/am thinking fondly of) them. They worked with me for Christ Jesus,
キリスト・イエスにあるわたしの同労者プリスカとアクラとに、よろしく言ってほしい。
4 and they were even willing to die [IDM] in order [to save] my life. It is not only I who thank them [for helping me], but the people in all [HYP] the non-Jewish congregations also [thank them for saving my life].
彼らは、わたしのいのちを救うために、自分の首をさえ差し出してくれたのである。彼らに対しては、わたしだけではなく、異邦人のすべての教会も、感謝している。
5 Also tell the congregation [that meets] in their house that I (send my greetings to/am thinking fondly of) them. Tell my dear friend Epaenetus the same thing. He is the first man in Asia [province] who [believed] in Christ.
また、彼らの家の教会にも、よろしく。わたしの愛するエパネトに、よろしく言ってほしい。彼は、キリストにささげられたアジヤの初穂である。
6 Tell Mary, who has worked hard [for Christ] in order to [help] you, that I (send my greetings to/am thinking fondly of) her.
あなたがたのために一方ならず労苦したマリヤに、よろしく言ってほしい。
7 Tell the same thing to Andronicus and [his wife] Junia (OR, and [his sister] Junia) who are my fellow Jews and who were also [previously] in prison with me. They are well-known/respected (OR, respected by the) apostles, and they became Christians before I did.
わたしの同族であって、わたしと一緒に投獄されたことのあるアンデロニコとユニアスとに、よろしく。彼らは使徒たちの間で評判がよく、かつ、わたしよりも先にキリストを信じた人々である。
8 I also send my greetings to Ampliatus, who is a dear friend because of his relationship with the Lord.
主にあって愛するアムプリアトに、よろしく。
9 I also send my greetings to Urbanus, who works for Christ with us, and to my dear friend Stachys.
キリストにあるわたしたちの同労者ウルバノと、愛するスタキスとに、よろしく。
10 I also send my greetings to Apelles, whom Christ has approved [because Apelles successfully endured trials]. Tell the [believers] who [live in the house] of Aristobulus that I send my greetings to them.
キリストにあって錬達なアペレに、よろしく。アリストブロの家の人たちに、よろしく。
11 Also tell Herodion, who is my fellow Jew, that I send my greetings to him. Tell the same thing to those who [live in the house] of Narcissus who belong to the Lord.
同族のヘロデオンに、よろしく。ナルキソの家の、主にある人たちに、よろしく。
12 Tell the same thing to Tryphaena and [her sister] Tryphosa, who work hard for the Lord. I also send my greetings to Persis. [We all] love her and she has worked very hard for the Lord.
主にあって労苦しているツルパナとツルポサとに、よろしく。主にあって一方ならず労苦した愛するペルシスに、よろしく。
13 Tell Rufus, who is an outstanding Christian, that I send my greetings to him. [Tell the same thing to] his mother, [who has treated me as though] I [were her son] [MET].
主にあって選ばれたルポスと、彼の母とに、よろしく。彼の母は、わたしの母でもある。
14 Tell Asyncritus and Phlegon and Hermes and Patrobas and Hermas and the fellow believers who [meet] with them that I am sending my greetings to them.
アスンクリト、フレゴン、ヘルメス、パトロバ、ヘルマスおよび彼らと一緒にいる兄弟たちに、よろしく。
15 I also send my greetings to Philologus, to [his wife] Julia (OR, [his sister] Julia), to Nereus and his sister, and to Olympas, and to all God’s people who [meet] with them.
ピロロゴとユリヤとに、またネレオとその姉妹とに、オルンパに、また彼らと一緒にいるすべての聖徒たちに、よろしく言ってほしい。
16 Greet one another affectionately, but in a pure way, [when you gather together]. The [believers in] all the Christian congregations [HYP] [in this area (send their] greetings to/say they are thinking fondly of) you.
きよい接吻をもって、互にあいさつをかわしなさい。キリストのすべての教会から、あなたがたによろしく。
17 My fellow believers, I exhort you that you beware of those people who are causing divisions among you and who cause people to turn away [from God] [MTY] [because they teach things that] are contrary to the message [about Christ] that you have learned (OR, that others taught you). Keep away from such people!
さて兄弟たちよ。あなたがたに勧告する。あなたがたが学んだ教にそむいて分裂を引き起し、つまずきを与える人々を警戒し、かつ彼らから遠ざかるがよい。
18 They do not serve our Lord Christ! On the contrary, they only want to satisfy their own desires [MTY]! Also, by all the eloquent things that they say [DOU] they deceive those people who do not realize [that their teaching is false].
なぜなら、こうした人々は、わたしたちの主キリストに仕えないで、自分の腹に仕え、そして甘言と美辞とをもって、純朴な人々の心を欺く者どもだからである。
19 [Believers] everywhere know that you have paid attention to [the good message about Christ], with the result that I rejoice about you. But I also want you to be wise, [with the result that you do] what is good. I also want you to avoid doing what is evil.
あなたがたの従順は、すべての人々の耳に達しており、それをあなたがたのために喜んでいる。しかし、わたしの願うところは、あなたがたが善にさとく、悪には、うとくあってほしいことである。
20 [If you avoid people who teach what is false], what will [soon happen] [MET] [will be as though] God, who causes us to be peaceful, will be crushing Satan under your feet! [I pray that] our Lord Jesus will continue to act kindly towards you.
平和の神は、サタンをすみやかにあなたがたの足の下に踏み砕くであろう。どうか、わたしたちの主イエスの恵みが、あなたがたと共にあるように。
21 Timothy, who works with me, and Lucius and Jason and Sosipater, who are my fellow Jews, [want you to know that they are] (sending their greetings to/thinking fondly of) you.
わたしの同労者テモテおよび同族のルキオ、ヤソン、ソシパテロから、あなたがたによろしく。
22 I, Tertius, [one who belongs to] the Lord, [also want you to know] that I am (sending my greetings to/thinking fondly of) you. [I am writing this letter as Paul tells me what to write for him].
（この手紙を筆記したわたしテルテオも、主にあってあなたがたにあいさつの言葉をおくる。）
23 I, [Paul], am staying in the house of Gaius, and the whole congregation [here meets] in his house. He [also wants you to know] that he is (sending his greetings to/thinking fondly of) you. Erastus, the treasurer of [this] city, also [wants you to know that] he is (sending his greetings to/thinking fondly of) you. Our fellow believer Quartus also (sends his greetings to you./says he is thinking fondly of you.)
わたしと全教会との家主ガイオから、あなたがたによろしく。市の会計係エラストと兄弟クワルトから、あなたがたによろしく。〔
わたしたちの主イエス・キリストの恵みが、あなたがた一同と共にあるように、アァメン。〕
25 As [I] proclaim [the good message about] Jesus Christ, [I tell about God], the one who is able to strengthen you [spiritually]. I also proclaim the [truth] that was not revealed {which [God] did not reveal} in all previous ages/times (aiōnios g166)
願わくは、わたしの福音とイエス・キリストの宣教とにより、かつ、長き世々にわたって、 (aiōnios g166)
26 but which has now been {which [he] has now} revealed. [I, along with others, have proclaimed] what the prophets wrote [about Christ]. We are doing what the eternal God commanded [us(exc)/me to do]. We want [people in] all ethnic groups to know [Christ] so that they can believe [in him] and obey [him]. (aiōnios g166)
隠されていたが、今やあらわされ、預言の書をとおして、永遠の神の命令に従い、信仰の従順に至らせるために、もろもろの国人に告げ知らされた奥義の啓示によって、あなたがたを力づけることのできるかた、 (aiōnios g166)
