Acts 18
1 After these things, Paul departed from Athens, and came to Corinth;
其後パウロアデンスを出でてコリントに至りしが
2 And found a certain Jew named Aquila, born in Pontus, lately come from Italy, with his wife Priscilla (because that Claudius had commanded all Jews to depart from Rome) and [he] came to them.
クロウヂオ[皇帝]が、ユデア人は皆ロマを去るべしとの命を下しし為に、近頃イタリアより來れる、ポント生れのアクィラと云へるユデア人と、其妻プリシルラとに遇ひしかば、彼等に近づき、
3 And because he was of the same occupation, he abode with them, and wrought (for by their occupation they were tent-makers)
同業なりければ、同居して共に仕事を為し居たり、其は幕屋製造業なりき。
4 And he reasoned in the synagogue every sabbath, and persuaded the Jews and the Greeks.
然て安息日毎に會堂に於て論じ、主イエズスの御名を挿みて、ユデア人とギリシア人とを勧め居りしが、
5 And when Silas and Timothy had come from Macedonia, Paul was pressed in spirit, and testified to the Jews, [that] Jesus [was] Christ.
シラとチモテオとマケドニアより來りて後は、パウロ専ら宣教に從事し、イエズスのキリストたる事をユデア人に證明しけるに、
6 And when they opposed themselves, and blasphemed, he shook [his] raiment, and said to them, Your blood [be] upon your own heads: I [am] clean: from henceforth I will go to the Gentiles.
彼等之に逆らひ且罵りければ、パウロ衣服を振ひて云ひけるは、汝等の血は汝等の首に歸すべし、我は罪なし、今より異邦人に赴かんとす、と。
7 And he departed thence, and entered into the house of a certain man named Justus, [one] that worshiped God, whose house joined close to the synagogue.
斯て此處を去りて、神を尊べるチト、ユストと云へる人の家に入りしが、其家は會堂の隣にして、
8 And Crispus the chief ruler of the synagogue believed on the Lord with all his house: and many of the Corinthians hearing, believed, and were baptized.
會堂の司クリスポ其家族一同と共に主を信仰し、又コリント人夥しく教を聴きて、信じ且洗せられ居たり。
9 Then the Lord spoke to Paul in the night by a vision, Be not afraid, but speak, and hold not thy peace:
時に主夜中に幻影を以てパウロに曰ひけるは、懼れずして語れ、黙すること勿れ、
10 For I am with thee, and no man shall lay hands on thee, to hurt thee: for I have many people in this city.
蓋我汝と共に在れば、汝に打蒐りて害する人あらじ、其は我民となるもの此市中に多ければなり、と。
11 And he continued [there] a year and six months, teaching the word of God among them.
斯てパウロは一年六箇月の間此處に滞在して、彼等の中に神の御言を教へたり。
12 And when Gallio was the deputy of Achaia, the Jews made insurrection with one accord against Paul, and brought him to the judgment-seat,
然るにガルリオがアカヤ[州]の総督たりし時、ユデア人心を合せてパウロに逆らひ、之を裁判所に召連れ、
13 Saying, This [man] persuadeth men to worship God contrary to the law.
此人律法に反して神を尊ぶ事を人に勧む、と云ひければ、
14 And when Paul was now about to open [his] mouth, Gallio said to the Jews, If it were a matter of wrong, or hainous crime, O [ye] Jews, reason would that I should bear with you:
パウロ口を開かんとしけるを、ガルリオユデア人に向ひて、ユデア人よ、不正の事、極惡の事ならば、我が汝等に聴くは素より道理なれど、
15 But if it is a question of words and names, and [of] your law, look ye [to it]: for I will be no judge of such [matters].
若教と名義と汝等の律法とに関する問題ならば、汝等自ら之を視よ、我は斯る事の審判者となるを好まず、と云ひて、
16 And he drove them from the judgment-seat.
彼等を法廷より追出しければ、
17 Then all the Greeks took Sosthenes, the chief ruler of the synagogue, and beat [him] before the judgment-seat. And Gallio cared for none of those things.
彼等皆會堂の司ソステネスを捕へ、裁判所の前にて打擲きたり、然れどガルリオ豪も之を意とせざりき。
18 And Paul [after this] tarried [there] yet a good while, and took his leave of the brethren, and sailed thence into Syria, and with him Priscilla and Aquila; having shorn [his] head in Cenchrea: for he had a vow.
パウロ尚久しく滞在して後、兄弟等に別を告げ、プリシルラ及びアクィラも同船して、シリアへ出帆せしが、早くよりの誓願にて、ケンクレに於て髪を剃りたりき。
19 And he came to Ephesus, and left them there: but he himself entered into the synagogue, and reasoned with the Jews.
然てエフェゾに至り、彼二人を措きて自らは會堂に入り、ユデア人と論じ居りしが、
20 When they desired [him] to tarry longer time with them, he consented not:
彼等尚久しく留らん事を請ひたれど、諾はずして、
21 But bade them farewell, saying, I must by all means keep this feast that cometh in Jerusalem: but I will return to you, if God will. And he sailed from Ephesus.
別れを告げ、神の思召ならば再び汝等に返るべし、と云ひてエフェゾより出發し、
22 And when he had landed at Cesarea, and gone up and saluted the church, he went down to Antioch.
カイザリアに上陸して[エルザレムに]上り、教會に挨拶してアンチオキアに下れり。
23 And after he had spent some time [there], he departed and went over [all] the country of Galatia and Phrygia in order, strengthening all the disciples.
第四項 聖パウロ第三回の傳道旅行 パウロアンチオキアに滞在する事暫くにして出發せしが、次第にガラチア地方及びフリジアを巡りて、弟子一同を堅固ならしめたり。
24 And a certain Jew named Apollos, born at Alexandria, an eloquent man, [and] mighty in the scriptures, came to Ephesus.
時に名をアポルロと呼ばれ、能弁にして聖書に達したる、アレキサンドリア生れのユデア人、エフェゾに來りしが、
25 This man was instructed in the way of the Lord: and being fervent in the spirit, he spoke and taught diligently the things of the Lord, knowing only the baptism of John.
此人曾て主の道を教へられ、唯ヨハネの洗禮を知るのみなりしかど、熱心家にして、イエズスの事を語り、且詳しく教へつつありき。
26 And he began to speak boldly in the synagogue: Whom, when Aquila and Priscilla had heard, they took him to [them], and expounded to him the way of God more perfectly.
然れば憚る所なく會堂に於て盡力し出でしを、プリシルラとアクィラと聞きて之を誘ひ、尚委しく主の道を説き聞かせたり。
27 And when he was disposed to pass into Achaia, the brethren wrote, exhorting the disciples to receive him: who, when he had come, helped them much who had believed through grace.
アポルロアカヤ[州]に往かんと欲しければ、兄弟等書簡を弟子等に贈りて、之を承容れん事を勧めしに、彼往きて後、既に信じたる人々に益する所多かりき。
28 For he mightily convinced the Jews, [and that] publicly, showing by the scriptures, that Jesus was Christ.
其は聖書によりてイエズスのキリストたる事を證明し、勇を振ひて公然ユデア人を説伏すればなり。
