使徒の働き 13
1 アンテオケの教會にバルナバ、ニゲルと稱ふるシメオン、クレネ人ルキオ、國守ヘロデの乳 兄弟マナエン及びサウロなどいふ預言者と教師とあり。
Now in the assembly that was at Antioch there were some prophets and teachers: Barnabas, Simeon who was called Niger, Lucius of Cyrene, Manaen the foster brother of Herod the tetrarch, and Saul.
2 彼らが主に事へ斷食したるとき、聖 靈いひ給ふ『わが召して行はせんとする業の爲に、バルナバとサウロとを選び、別て』
As they served the Lord and fasted, the Holy Spirit said, “Separate Barnabas and Saul for me, for the work to which I have called them.”
3 ここに彼ら斷食し、祈りて二人の上に手を按きて往かしむ。
Then, when they had fasted and prayed and laid their hands on them, they sent them away.
4 この二人、聖 靈に遣されてセルキヤに下り、彼處より船にてクプロに渡り、
So, being sent out by the Holy Spirit, they went down to Seleucia. From there they sailed to Cyprus.
5 サラミスに著きてユダヤ人の諸 會堂にて神の言を宣傳へ、またヨハネを助人として伴ふ。
When they were at Salamis, they proclaimed God’s word in the Jewish synagogues. They also had John as their attendant.
6 徧くこの島を經 行きてパポスに到り、バルイエスといふユダヤ人にて僞 預言者たる魔術 者に遇ふ。
When they had gone through the island to Paphos, they found a certain sorcerer, a false prophet, a Jew whose name was Bar Jesus,
7 彼は地方 總督なる慧き人セルギオ・パウロと偕にありき。總督はバルナバとサウロとを招き神の言を聽かんとしたるに、
who was with the proconsul, Sergius Paulus, a man of understanding. This man summoned Barnabas and Saul, and sought to hear the word of God.
8 かの魔術 者エルマ（この名を釋けば魔術 者）二人に敵 對して總督を信仰の道より離れしめんとせり。
But Elymas the sorcerer (for so is his name by interpretation) withstood them, seeking to turn the proconsul away from the faith.
9 サウロ又の名はパウロ、聖 靈に滿され、彼に目を注めて言ふ、
But Saul, who is also called Paul, filled with the Holy Spirit, fastened his eyes on him
10 『ああ有らゆる詭計と奸惡とにて滿ちたる者、惡魔の子、すべての義の敵よ、なんぢ主の直き道を曲げて止まぬか。
and said, “You son of the devil, full of all deceit and all cunning, you enemy of all righteousness, will you not cease to pervert the right ways of the Lord?
11 視よ、いま主の御手なんぢの上にあり、なんぢ盲目となりて暫く日を見ざるべし』かくて立刻に朦と闇とその目を掩ひたれば、探り囘りて導きくるる者を求む。
Now, behold, the hand of the Lord is on you, and you will be blind, not seeing the sun for a season!” Immediately a mist and darkness fell on him. He went around seeking someone to lead him by the hand.
12 ここに總督この有りし事を見て、主の教に驚きて信じたり。
Then the proconsul, when he saw what was done, believed, being astonished at the teaching of the Lord.
13 さてパウロ及び之に伴ふ人々、パポスより船出してパンフリヤのペルガに到り、ヨハネは離れてエルサレムに歸れり。
Now Paul and his company set sail from Paphos and came to Perga in Pamphylia. John departed from them and returned to Jerusalem.
14 彼らはペルガより進み往きてピシデヤのアンテオケに到り、安息 日に會堂に入りて坐せり。
But they, passing on from Perga, came to Antioch of Pisidia. They went into the synagogue on the Sabbath day and sat down.
15 律法および預言者の書の朗讀ありしのち、會堂 司たち人を彼らに遣し『兄弟たちよ、もし民に勸の言あらば言へ』と言はしめたれば、
After the reading of the law and the prophets, the rulers of the synagogue sent to them, saying, “Brothers, if you have any word of exhortation for the people, speak.”
16 パウロ起ちて手を搖かして言ふ、『イスラエルの人々および神を畏るる者よ、聽け。
Paul stood up, and gesturing with his hand said, “Men of Israel, and you who fear God, listen.
17 このイスラエルの民の神は、我らの先祖を選び、そのエジプトの地に寄寓せし時、わが民をおこし、強き御腕にて之を導きいだし、
The God of this people chose our fathers, and exalted the people when they stayed as aliens in the land of Egypt, and with an uplifted arm, he led them out of it.
18 おほよそ四十 年のあひだ、荒野にて彼らの所作を忍び、
For a period of about forty years he put up with them in the wilderness.
19 カナンの地にて七つの民族をほろぼし、その地を彼らに嗣がしめて、
When he had destroyed seven nations in the land of Canaan, he gave them their land for an inheritance for about four hundred fifty years.
20 凡そ四 百 五 十 年を經たり。此ののち預言者サムエルの時代まで審判 人を賜ひしを、
After these things, he gave them judges until Samuel the prophet.
21 後に至りて彼ら王を求めたれば、神は之にキスの子サウロと云ふベニヤミンの族の人を四十 年のあひだ賜ひ、
Afterward they asked for a king, and God gave to them Saul the son of Kish, a man of the tribe of Benjamin, for forty years.
22 之を退けて後、ダビデを擧げて王となし、且これを證して「我エッサイの子ダビデといふ我が心に適ふ者を見出せり、彼わが意をことごとく行はん」と宣給へり。
When he had removed him, he raised up David to be their king, to whom he also testified, ‘I have found David the son of Jesse, a man after my heart, who will do all my will.’
23 神は約束に隨ひて此の人の裔より、イスラエルの爲に救主イエスを興し給ひしが、
From this man’s offspring, God has brought salvation to Israel according to his promise,
24 その來る前にヨハネ預じめイスラエルの凡ての民に悔改のバプテスマを宣傳へたり。
before his coming, when John had first preached the baptism of repentance to Israel.
25 かくてヨハネ己が走るべき道程を終へんとする時「なんぢら我を誰と思ふか、我はかの人にあらず、視よ、我に後れて來る者あり、我はその鞋の紐を解くにも足らず」と云へり。
As John was fulfilling his course, he said, ‘What do you suppose that I am? I am not he. But behold, one comes after me, the sandals of whose feet I am not worthy to untie.’
26 兄弟たち、アブラハムの血統の子ら及び汝 等のうち神を畏るる者よ、この救の言は我らに贈られたり。
“Brothers, children of the stock of Abraham, and those among you who fear God, the word of this salvation is sent out to you.
27 それエルサレムに住める者および其の司らは、彼をも安息 日ごとに讀むところの預言者たちの言をも知らず、彼を刑ひて預言を成就せしめたり。
For those who dwell in Jerusalem, and their rulers, because they didn’t know him, nor the voices of the prophets which are read every Sabbath, fulfilled them by condemning him.
28 その死に當るべき故を得ざりしかど、ピラトに殺さんことを求め、
Though they found no cause for death, they still asked Pilate to have him killed.
29 彼につきて記されたる事をことごとく成しをへ、彼を木より下して墓に納めたり。
When they had fulfilled all things that were written about him, they took him down from the tree and laid him in a tomb.
30 されど神は彼を死人の中より甦へらせ給へり。
But God raised him from the dead,
31 かくてイエスは己と偕にガリラヤよりエルサレムに上りし者に多くの日のあひだ現れ給へり。その人々は今、民の前にイエスの證人たるなり。
and he was seen for many days by those who came up with him from Galilee to Jerusalem, who are his witnesses to the people.
32 我らも先祖たちが與へられし約束につきて喜ばしき音信を汝らに告ぐ、
We bring you good news of the promise made to the fathers,
33 神はイエスを甦へらせて、その約束を我らの子孫に成就したまへり。即ち詩の第二 篇に「なんぢは我が子なり、われ今日なんぢを生めり」と録されたるが如し。
that God has fulfilled this to us, their children, in that he raised up Jesus. As it is also written in the second psalm, ‘You are my Son. Today I have become your father.’
34 また朽腐に歸せざる状に彼を死人の中より甦へらせ給ひし事に就きては、斯く宣給へり。曰く「われダビデに約せし確き聖なる恩惠を汝らに與へん」
“Concerning that he raised him up from the dead, now no more to return to corruption, he has spoken thus: ‘I will give you the holy and sure blessings of David.’
35 そは他の篇に「なんぢは汝の聖者を朽腐に歸せざらしむべし」と云へり。
Therefore he says also in another psalm, ‘You will not allow your Holy One to see decay.’
36 それダビデは、その代にて神の御旨を行ひ、終に眠りて先祖たちと共に置かれ、かつ朽腐に歸したり。
For David, after he had in his own generation served the counsel of God, fell asleep, was laid with his fathers, and saw decay.
37 然れど神の甦へらせ給ひし者は朽腐に歸せざりき。
But he whom God raised up saw no decay.
38 この故に兄弟たちよ、汝ら知れ。この人によりて罪の赦のなんぢらに傳へらるることを。
Be it known to you therefore, brothers, that through this man is proclaimed to you remission of sins;
39 汝らモーセの律法によりて義とせられ得ざりし凡ての事も、信ずる者は皆この人によりて義とせらるる事を。
and by him everyone who believes is justified from all things, from which you could not be justified by the law of Moses.
40 然れば汝ら心せよ、恐らくは預言者たちの書に云ひたること來らん、
Beware therefore, lest that come on you which is spoken in the prophets:
41 曰く「あなどる者よ、なんぢら視よ、おどろけ、亡びよ、われ汝らの日に一つの事を行はん。これを汝らに具に告ぐる者ありとも信ぜざる程の事なり」』
‘Behold, you scoffers! Wonder and perish, for I work a work in your days, a work which you will in no way believe, if one declares it to you.’”
42 彼らが會堂を出づるとき、人々これらの言を次の安息 日にも語らんことを請ふ。
So when the Jews went out of the synagogue, the Gentiles begged that these words might be preached to them the next Sabbath.
43 集會の散ぜし後、ユダヤ人および敬虔なる改宗者おほくパウロとバルナバとに從ひ往きたれば、彼らに語りて神の恩惠に止らんことを勸めたり。
Now when the synagogue broke up, many of the Jews and of the devout proselytes followed Paul and Barnabas; who, speaking to them, urged them to continue in the grace of God.
44 次の安息 日には、神の言を聽かんとて殆ど町 擧りて集りたり。
The next Sabbath, almost the whole city was gathered together to hear the word of God.
45 されどユダヤ人はその群衆を見て嫉に滿され、パウロの語ることに言ひ逆ひて罵れり。
But when the Jews saw the multitudes, they were filled with jealousy, and contradicted the things which were spoken by Paul, and blasphemed.
46 パウロとバルナバとは臆せずして言ふ『神の言を先づ汝らに語るべかりしを、汝 等これを斥けて己を永遠の生命に相應しからぬ者と自ら定むるによりて、視よ、我ら轉じて異邦人に向はん。 (aiōnios g166)
Paul and Barnabas spoke out boldly, and said, “It was necessary that God’s word should be spoken to you first. Since indeed you thrust it from yourselves, and judge yourselves unworthy of eternal life, behold, we turn to the Gentiles. (aiōnios g166)
47 それ主は斯く我らに命じ給へり。曰く「われ汝を立てて異邦人の光とせり。地の極にまで救とならしめん爲なり」』
For so has the Lord commanded us, saying, ‘I have set you as a light for the Gentiles, that you should bring salvation to the uttermost parts of the earth.’”
As the Gentiles heard this, they were glad and glorified the word of God. As many as were appointed to eternal life believed. (aiōnios g166)
49 主の言この地に徧く弘りたり。
The Lord’s word was spread abroad throughout all the region.
50 然るにユダヤ人ら、敬虔なる貴女たち及び町の重立ちたる人々を唆かして、パウロとバルナバとに迫害をくはへ、遂に彼らを其の境より逐ひ出せり。
But the Jews stirred up the devout and prominent women and the chief men of the city, and stirred up a persecution against Paul and Barnabas, and threw them out of their borders.
51 二人は彼らに對ひて足の塵をはらひ、イコニオムに往く。
But they shook off the dust of their feet against them, and came to Iconium.
52 弟子たちは喜悦と聖 靈とにて滿され居たり。
The disciples were filled with joy and with the Holy Spirit.
