Revelation 8
1 And when he had opened the seventh seal, there was silence in heaven about the space of half an hour.
第七の封印を解き給ひたれば、凡そ半時のあひだ天 靜なりき。
2 And I saw the seven angels who stood before God; and to them were given seven trumpets.
われ神の前に立てる七人の御使を見たり、彼らは七つのラッパを與へられたり。
3 And another angel came and stood at the altar, having a golden censer; and there was given to him much incense, that he should offer [it] with the prayers of all saints upon the golden altar which was before the throne.
また他の一人の御使、金の香爐を持ちきたりて祭壇の前に立ち、多くの香を與へられたり。これは凡ての聖徒の祈に加へて、御座の前なる金の香壇の上に献げんためなり。
4 And the smoke of the incense, [which came] with the prayers of the saints, ascended before God out of the angel's hand.
而して香の煙、御使の手より聖徒たちの祈とともに神の前に上れり。
5 And the angel took the censer, and filled it with fire of the altar, and cast [it] upon the earth: and there were voices, and thunderings, and lightnings, and an earthquake.
御使その香爐をとり、之に祭壇の火を盛りて地に投げたれば、數多の雷霆と聲と電光と、また地震おこれり。
6 And the seven angels who had the seven trumpets prepared themselves to sound.
ここに七つのラッパをもてる七人の御使これを吹く備をなせり。
7 The first angel sounded, and there followed hail and fire mingled with blood, and they were cast upon the earth: and the third part of trees was burnt up, and all green grass was burnt up.
第一の御使ラッパを吹きしに、血の混りたる雹と火とありて、地にふりくだり、地の三分の一 燒け失せ、樹の三分の一 燒け失せ、もろもろの青 草 燒け失せたり。
8 And the second angel sounded, and as it were a great mountain burning with fire was cast into the sea: and the third part of the sea became blood;
第二の御使ラッパを吹きしに、火にて燃ゆる大なる山の如きもの海に投げ入れられ、海の三分の一 血に變じ、
9 And the third part of the creatures which were in the sea, and had life, died; and the third part of the ships were destroyed.
海の中の造られたる生命あるものの三分の一 死に、船の三分の一 滅びたり。
10 And the third angel sounded, and there fell a great star from heaven, burning as it were a lamp, and it fell upon the third part of the rivers, and upon the fountains of waters;
第三の御使ラッパを吹きしに、燈火のごとく燃ゆる大なる星、天より隕ちきたり、川の三分の一と水の源泉との上におちたり。
11 And the name of the star is called Wormwood: and the third part of the waters became wormwood; and many men died by the waters, because they were made bitter.
この星の名は苦艾といふ。水の三分の一は苦艾となり、水の苦くなりしに因りて多くの人 死にたり。
12 And the fourth angel sounded, and the third part of the sun was smitten, and the third part of the moon, and the third part of the stars; so that the third part of them was darkened, and the day shone not for a third part of it, and the night likewise.
第四の御使ラッパを吹きしに、日の三分の一と月の三分の一と星の三分の一と撃たれて、その三分の一は暗くなり、晝も三分の一は光なく、夜も亦おなじ。
13 And I beheld, and heard an angel flying through the midst of heaven, saying with a loud voice, Woe, woe, woe, to the inhabiters of the earth, by reason of the other voices of the trumpet of the three angels, which are yet to sound!
また見しに、一つの鷲の中空を飛び、大なる聲して言ふを聞けり。曰く『地に住める者どもは禍害なるかな、禍害なるかな、禍害なるかな、尚ほかに三人の御使の吹かんとするラッパの聲あるに因りてなり』
