< Acts 19 >

1 And it bifelle, whanne Apollo was at Corinthi, that Poul whanne he hadde go the hiyer coostis, he cam to Efesie, and foond summe of disciplis.
然るにアポルロコリントに居りし時、パウロは高地の方を巡りてエフェゾに來り、或弟子等に遇ひて、
2 And he seide to hem, Whethir ye that bileuen han resseyued the Hooli Goost? And thei seiden to hym, But nether `han we herd, if the Hooli Goost is.
汝等信者となりて聖霊を蒙りたるか、と云ひしに、彼等、我等は聖霊の在る事すら聞きし事なし、と云ひしかば、
3 And he seide, Therfor in what thing ben ye baptisid? And thei seiden, In the baptym of Joon.
パウロ云ひけるは、然らば何によりて洗せられたるぞ、と。彼等云へらく、ヨハネの洗禮を受けたるなり、と。
4 And Poul seide, Joon baptiside the puple in baptym of penaunce, and tauyte, that thei schulden bileue in hym that was to comynge `after hym, that is, in Jhesu.
パウロ云ひけるは、ヨハネは、己の後に來るべき者、即ちイエズスを信ずべし、と言ひつつ、改心の洗禮を以て人民を洗したるなり、と。
5 Whanne thei herden these thingis, thei weren baptisid in the name of the Lord Jhesu.
彼等之を聞きて主イエズスの御名に由りて洗せられ、
6 And whanne Poul hadde leid on hem his hoondis, the Hooli Goost cam in hem, and thei spaken with langagis, and profecieden.
パウロ之に按手せしかば、聖霊彼等の上に降り給ひて、彼等異國語を語り、且預言したり、
7 And alle weren almest twelue men.
是等の男子凡十二人なりき。
8 And he yede in to the synagoge, and spak with trist thre monethis, disputinge and tretinge of the kingdom of God.
パウロ會堂に入りて三箇月の間憚らず語り、神の國に就きて論じ、人々を勧め居りしが、
9 But whanne summe weren hardid, and bileueden not, and cursiden the weie of the Lord bifor the multitude, he yede awei fro hem, and departide the disciplis, and disputide in the scole of a myyti man eche dai.
或は頑固になりて信ぜず、主の道を群衆の前に罵る者ありければ、パウロ彼等を去りて弟子等をも別れしめ、日々チランノと云へる人の教場にて弁論し居たり。
10 This was doon bi twei yeeris, so that alle that dwelliden in Asie herden the word of the Lord, Jewis and hethene men.
斯く為る事二年に渉りしかば、ユデア人も異邦人も[小]アジアに住める者は総て主の御言を聞くに至り、
11 And God dide vertues not smale bi the hoond of Poul,
神は又凡ならぬ奇蹟をパウロの手に由りて行ひ給ひ、
12 so that on sijk men the sudaries weren borun fro his bodye, and sijknessis departiden fro hem, and wickid spiritis wenten out.
其身より手拭或は帯を取りて病人に着くれば、病ひ彼等を離れ惡鬼立去る程なりき。
13 But also summe of the Jewis exorsisists yeden aboute, and assaieden to clepe the name of the Lord Jhesu Crist on hem that hadden yuele spiritis, and seiden, Y coniure you bi Jhesu, whom Poul prechith.
然るに各地を巡るユデアの呪術師の中なる或人々は、パウロが宣ぶるイエズスによりて我汝に命ず、と云ひて、惡鬼に憑かれたる人の上に、試に主イエズスの御名を呼べり。
14 And ther weren seuene sones of a Jewe, Steuen, a prince of preestis, that diden this thing.
斯く為せるはユデア人なるスケヴァ大司祭の七人の男子なりしが、
15 But the yuel spirit answeride, and seide to hem, Y knowe Jhesu, and Y knowe Poul; but who ben ye?
惡鬼答へて、我イエズスを知り、パウロを知れり、然れど汝等は誰ぞ、と云ひて、
16 And the man in which was the worste deuel, lippide on hem, and hadde victorie of bothe, and was stronge ayens hem, that thei nakid and woundid fledden awei fro that hous.
極惡の魔鬼に憑かれたる其人彼等に飛蒐り、二人を取押へて責めしかば、彼等裸體に為られ傷けられて、其家を逃去れり。
17 And this thing was maad knowun to alle the Jewis and to hethene men, that dwelliden at Effesie; and drede felle doun on hem alle, and thei magnyfieden the name of the Lord Jhesu.
此事エフェゾに住めるユデア人及びギリシア人一般に知れ渡りしかば、恐怖は一同の上を襲ひて、主イエズスの御名崇められつつありき。
18 And many men bileueden, and camen, knowlechinge and tellynge her dedis.
斯て信仰せる人々多く來り、己が行ひし事を説顕はして之を告白し居り、
19 And manye of them that sueden curiouse thingis, brouyten togidere bookis, and brenneden hem bifor alle men; and whanne the prices of tho weren acountid, thei founden monei of fifti thousynd pens;
又曾て魔術を行ひたりし人々多く其書籍を持來り、衆人の前にて焼盡ししが、其代價を算りて銀貨五萬なる事を認めたり。
20 so strongli the word of God wexide, and was confermyd.
神の御言の弘まりて勢力を得つつある事斯の如くなりき。
21 And whanne these thingis weren fillid, Poul purposide in spirit, aftir that Macedony was passid and Acaie, to go to Jerusalem, and seide, For aftir that Y schal be there, it bihoueth me `to se also Rome.
是等の事を為遂げて後、パウロ聖霊に勧められて、マケドニア及びアカヤを経てエルザレムへ往かんと志し、我彼處に至りて後ロマをも見ざるべからず、と謂ひて、
22 And he sente in to Macedonye twey men, that mynystriden to hym, Tymothe, and Eraste, and he dwellide for a tyme in Asie.
從者の中チモテオとエラストとの二人をマケドニアに遣し、其身は暫く[小]アジアに留れり。
23 And a greet troubling was maad in that dai, of the weie of the Lord.
然て此時に當り、主の道に就きて、一方ならぬ騒動起れり。
24 For a man, Demetrie bi name, a worcher in siluer, makide siluer housis to Diane, and yaf to crafti men myche wynnyng;
即ちデメトリオと云へる一人の銀細工屋あり、ヂアナ女神の銀の厨子を造りて、細工人等に得さする利益少からざりしが、
25 which he clepide togidere `hem that weren suche maner werkmen, and seide, Men, ye witen that of this craft wynnyng is to vs;
其細工人及び同業の職工を呼集めて云ひけるは、男等よ、我等の利益が此細工に依れる事は汝等の知る所にして、
26 and ye seen and heren, that this Poul counseilith and turneth awei myche puple, not oonli of Effesie, but almest of al Asie, and seith, that thei ben not goddis, that ben maad with hoondis.
彼パウロが、手にて造れるものは神に非ず、と云ひて、既にエフェゾのみならず、殆全アジアを説勧めて、夥しき人を遠ざからしめし事も、亦汝等の見聞せる所なり。
27 And not oonli this part schal be in perel to vs, to come in to repreef, but also the temple of the greet Dian schal be acountid in to nouyt; yhe, and the maieste of hir schal bigynne to be destried, whom al Asie and the world worschipith.
之より起る危険は、啻に我等が職業の信用を失ふ耳ならず、ヂアナ大女神の宮も`蔑にせられ、アジア及び世界挙りて崇め奉る大女神の威厳も失行くべき事是なり、と。
28 Whanne these thingis weren herd, thei weren fillid with ire, and crieden, and seiden, Greet is the Dian of Effesians.
彼等之を聞きて怒胸に満ち、叫びて、大いなる哉エフェゾ人のヂアナ、と云へり。
29 And the citee was fillid with confusioun, and thei maden an asaut with oon wille in to the teaatre, and tooken Gayus and Aristark, men of Macedonye, felawis of Poul.
斯て市中挙りて大いに騒ぎ立ち、相一致して、パウロの友なるマケドニア人ガイオとアリスタルコとを捕へて劇場に押入りたり。
30 And whanne Poul would haue entrid in to the peple, the disciplis suffriden not.
パウロも群衆の中に入込まんとせしを弟子等許さず、
31 And also summe of the princis of Asie, that weren hise freendis, senten to him. and preieden, that he schulde not yyue hym silf in to the teatre.
又[小]アジアにて國祭を司れる上官中に、パウロの親友なる人々あり、使にて、劇場に立入らざらん事を云ひ遣りしが、
32 And othere men crieden othir thing; for the chirche was confusid, and many wisten not for what cause thei weren come togidere.
人々は彼是と叫び居たり、其は會衆混雑して、大方の人は己等が何故に集りしかをさえ知らざればなり。
33 But of the puple thei drowen awei oon Alisaundre, while Jewis puttiden hym forth. And Alisaundre axide with his hoond silence, and wolde yelde a resoun to the puple.
斯てユデア人より突遣られたるアレキサンドルを雑踏の中より引出ししに、彼手眞似して静まらん事を乞ひ、人民に事の由を述べんとしたれど、
34 And as thei knewen that he was a Jew, o vois of alle men was maad, criynge as bi tweyn ouris, Greet Dian of Effesians.
人々彼がユデア人なるを見知るや、皆異口同音に殆二時間に渉りて、大いなる哉エフェゾ人のヂアナ、と叫べり。
35 And whanne the scribe hadde ceessid the puple, he seide, Men of Effesie, what man is he, that knowith not, that the citee of Effesians is the worschipere of greet Dian, and of the child of Jubiter?
斯て書記官群衆を鎮めて後云ひけるは、エフェゾ人よ、エフェゾの市はヅウスの裔なるヂアナ大女神の宮に事へ奉る者たる事誰かは知らざらん、
36 Therfor whanne it may not be ayenseid to these thingis, it behoueth you to be ceessid, and to do no thing folili;
是拒むべからざる事なれば、汝等宜しく穏便にして、何事も軽率に為すべからず。
37 for ye han brouyt these men, nethir sacrilegeris, nethir blasfemynge youre goddesse.
即ち汝等は此人々を召連れたれども、彼等は宮の物を盗みたるにも非ず、我等の女神を罵りたるにも非ず。
38 That if Demetrie, and the werk men that ben with hym, han cause ayens ony man, there ben courtis, and domes, and iugis; accusen thei eche other.
若しデメトリオ及び其友なる細工人等、或人に就きて訴ふる所あらば、法廷の開かれたるあり、地方総督の在るあり、人々互に告訴すべし。
39 If ye seken ouyt of ony othir thing, it may be assoylid in the lawful chirche.
汝等若他の問題に就きて議する事あらば、正當の議會に於て之を決するを得べし。
40 For whi we ben in perel to be repreuyd of this daies dissencioun, sithen no man is gilti, of whom we moun yelde resoun of this rennyng togidre.
蓋今日の事に就きては、騒亂の咎を受くる懼あり、其は此集會の事を弁解すべき理由、我等に一もあらざればなり、と。
41 And whanne he hadde seid this thing, he lete the puple go.
書記官は斯く云ひ終りて散會を告げたり。
