Revelation 6
1 And I saw when the Lamb opened one of the seals, and I heard one of the four animate beings saying, as with a voice of thunder, Come and see.
羔羊その七つの封印の一つを解き給ひし時、われ見しに、四つの活物の一つが雷霆のごとき聲して『來れ』と言ふを聞けり。
2 And I saw, and behold a white horse; and He that sat upon it had a bow, and a crown was given Him, and He went forth conquering and to conquer.
また見しに、視よ、白き馬あり、之に乘るもの弓を持ち、かつ冠冕を與へられ、勝ちて復 勝たんとて出でゆけり。
3 And when He opened the second seal, I heard the second animal saying, Come and see.
第二の封印を解き給ひたれば、第二の活物の『來れ』と言ふを聞けり。
4 And there came out another horse, which was red: and it was given to him, that sat upon it, to take peace from the earth, that they should kill one another: and there was given him a great sword.
かくて赤き馬いで來り、これに乘るもの地より平和を奪ひ取ることと、人をして互に殺さしむる事とを許され、また大なる劍を與へられたり。
5 And when He opened the third seal, I heard the third animal say, Come and see. And I beheld, and lo, a black horse, and he that sat upon it had a balance in his hand.
第三の封印を解き給ひたれば、第三の活物の『來れ』と言ふを聞けり。われ見しに、視よ、黒き馬あり、之に乘るもの手に權衝を持てり。
6 And I heard a voice in the midst of the four animals saying, One measure of wheat for a denary, and but three measures of barley for a denary: but see that thou hurt not the oil and the wine.
かくてわれ四つの活物の間より出づるごとき聲を聞けり。曰く『小麥 五合は一デナリ、大麥 一升 五合は一デナリなり、油と葡萄酒とを害ふな』
7 And when He opened the fourth seal, I heard the voice of the fourth animal saying, Come and see.
第四の封印を解き給ひたれば、第四の活物の『來れ』と言ふを聞けり。
8 And I saw, and behold a pale horse, and the name of him that sat upon it was Death, and Hades followed him: and power was given them to slay a fourth part of the earth, by sword, and by famine, and by pestilence, and by wild beasts. (Hadēs g86)
われ見しに、視よ、青ざめたる馬あり、之に乘る者の名を死といひ、陰府これに隨ふ。かれらは地の四 分の一を支配し、劍と饑饉と死と地の獸とをもて人を殺すことを許されたり。 (Hadēs g86)
9 And when He opened the fifth seal, I saw under the altar the souls of those that had been slain for the word of God, and for the testimony which they maintained.
第五の封印を解き給ひたれば、曾て神の言のため、又その立てし證のために殺されし者の靈魂の祭壇の下に在るを見たり。
10 And they cried with a loud voice, saying, How long, O Lord, holy and true, dost thou not judge and avenge our blood on those that dwell upon the earth?
彼ら大聲に呼はりて言ふ『聖にして眞なる主よ、何時まで審かずして地に住む者に我らの血の復讐をなし給はぬか』
11 And white robes were given to each of them, and it was told them to rest a little while longer, till the number of their fellow-servants, and their brethren that should be killed as they were, should be complete.
ここにおのおの白き衣を與へられ、かつ己 等のごとく殺されんとする同じ僕たる者と兄弟との數の滿つるまで、なほ暫く安んじて待つべきを言ひ聞けられたり。
12 And I saw when He opened the sixth seal, and behold there was a great earthquake, and the sun became black as sack-cloth of hair, and the moon was red as blood;
第六の封印を解き給ひし時、われ見しに、大なる地震ありて日は荒き毛 布のごとく黒く、月は全面 血の如くなり、
13 and the stars of heaven fell to the earth, as a fig-tree droppeth it's unripe figs, when shaken by a strong wind;
天の星は無花果の樹の大風に搖られて、生り後の果の落つるごとく地におち、
14 and the heaven passed away as a book rolled up, and every mountain and island were moved out of their places:
天は卷 物を卷くごとく去りゆき、山と島とは悉とくその處を移されたり。
15 and the kings of the earth, and the grandees, and the rich men, and the chief captains, and the mighty men, and every slave, and every free man, hid themselves in the caverns and in the rocks of the mountains;
地の王たち・大臣・將校・富める者・強き者・奴隷・自主の人、みな洞と山の巖間とに匿れ、
16 and said to the mountains and to the rocks, "Fall upon us, and hide us from the face of Him that sitteth on the throne, and from the wrath of the Lamb:
山と巖とに對ひて言ふ『請ふ、我らの上に墜ちて御座に坐したまふ者の御顏より、羔羊の怒より、我らを隱せ。
17 for the great day of his wrath is come, and who can stand before Him?"
そは御怒の大なる日 既に來ればなり。誰か立つことを得ん』
