ダニエル書 10
1 ペルシヤの王クロスの三年にベルテシヤザルといふダニエル一の事の默旨を得たるがその事は眞實にしてその戰爭は大なり彼その事を暁りその示現の義を暁れり
In the third yeere of Cyrus King of Persia, a thing was reueiled vnto Daniel (whose name was called Belteshazzar) and the worde was true, but the time appointed was long, and he vnderstood the thing, and had vnderstanding of the vision.
2 當時我ダニエル三七日の間哀めり
At the same time I Daniel was in heauines for three weekes of dayes.
3 即ち三七日の全く滿るまでは旨き物を食ず肉と酒とを口にいれずまた身に膏油を抹ざりき
I ate no pleasant bread, neither came flesh nor wine in my mouth, neither did I anoint my selfe at all, till three weekes of dayes were fulfilled.
4 正月の二十四日に我ヒデケルといふ大河の邊に在り
And in the foure and twentieth day of the first moneth, as I was by the side of that great riuer, euen Hiddekel,
5 目を擧て望觀しに一箇の人ありて布の衣を衣ウバズの金の帶を腰にしめをり
And I lift vp mine eyes, and looked, and beholde, there was a man clothed in linnen, whose loynes were girded with fine golde of Vphaz.
6 その體は黄金色の玉のごとくその面は電光の如くその目は火の熖のごとくその手とその足の色は磨ける銅のごとくその言ふ聲は群衆の聲の如し
His body also was like the Chrysolite, and his face (to looke vpon) like the lightning, and his eyes as lamps of fire, and his armes and his feete were like in colour to polished brasse, and the voyce of his wordes was like the voyce of a multitude.
7 この示現は唯我ダニエル一人これを觀たり我と偕なる人々はこの示現を見ざりしが何となくその身大に慄きて逃かくれたり
And I Daniel alone sawe the vision: for the men that were with me, sawe not the vision: but a great feare fell vpon them, so that they fled away and hid themselues.
8 故に我ひとり遺りたるがこの大なる示現を觀るにおよびて力ぬけさり顔色まつたく變りて毫も力なかりき
Therefore I was left alone, and sawe this great vision, and there remained no strength in me: for my strength was turned in me into corruption, and I reteined no power.
9 我その語ふ聲を聞けるがその語ふ聲を聞る時我は氣を喪へる状にて俯伏し面を土につけゐたりしに
Yet heard I the voyce of his wordes: and when I heard the voyce of his wordes, I slept on my face: and my face was toward the ground.
10 一の手ありて我に捫りければ我戰ひながら跪づきて手をつきたるに
And behold, an hand touched me, which set me vp vpon my knees and vpon the palmes of mine hands.
11 彼われに言けるは愛せらるる人ダニエルよ我が汝に告る言を暁れよ汝まづ起あがれ我は今汝の許に遣されたるなりと彼がこの言を我に告る時に我は戰ひて立り
And he sayde vnto me, O Daniel, a man greatly beloued, vnderstand the wordes that I speake vnto thee, and stand in thy place: for vnto thee am I nowe sent. And when hee had sayde this worde vnto me, I stood trembling.
12 彼すなはち我に言けるはダニエルよ懼るる勿れ汝が心をこめて悟らんとし汝の神の前に身をなやませるその初の日よりして汝の言はすでに聽れたれば我汝の言によりて來れり
Then sayd he vnto me, Feare not, Daniel: for from the first day that thou diddest set thine heart to vnderstand, and to humble thy selfe before thy God, thy wordes were heard, and I am come for thy wordes.
13 然るにペルシヤの國の君二十一日の間わが前に立塞がりけるが長たる君の一なるミカエル來りて我を助けたれば我勝留りてペルシヤの王等の傍にをる
But the prince of the kingdome of Persia withstoode me one and twentie dayes: but loe, Michael one of the chiefe princes, came to helpe me, and I remained there by the Kings of Persia.
14 我は末の日に汝の民に臨まんとするところの事を汝に暁らせんとて來れりまた後の日に關はる所の異象ありと
Nowe I am come to shewe thee what shall come to thy people in the latter dayes: for yet the vision is for many dayes.
15 かれ是等の言を我に宣たる時に我は面を土につけて居り辭を措ところ無りしが
And when he spake these wordes vnto me, I set my face towarde the grounde, and helde my tongue.
16 人の子のごとき者わが唇に捫りければ我すなはち口を開きわが前に立る者に陳て言り我主よこの示現によりて我は畏怖にたへず全く力を失へり
And beholde, one like the similitude of the sonnes of man touched my lippes: then I opened my mouth, and spake, and said vnto him that stoode before me, O my Lord, by the vision my sorowes are returned vpon me, and I haue reteined no strength.
17 此わが主の僕いかでか此わが主と語ふことを得んとその時は我まつたく力を失ひて氣息も止らんばかりなりしが
For howe can the seruant of this my Lord talke with my Lord being such one? for as for me, straight way there remained no strength in me, neither is there breath left in me.
18 人の形のごとき者ふたたび我に捫り我に力をつけて
Then there came againe, and touched me one like the appearance of a man, and he strengthened me,
19 言けるは愛せらるる人よ懼るる勿れ安んぜよ心強かれ心強かれと斯われに言ければ我力づきて曰り我主よ語りたまへ汝われに力をつけたまへりと
And said, O man, greatly beloued, feare not: peace be vnto thee: be strong and of good courage. And when he had spoken vnto me, I was strengthened, and saide, Let my Lord speake: for thou hast strengthened me.
20 彼われに言けるは汝は我が何のために汝に臨めるかを知るや我今また歸りゆきてペルシヤの君と戰はんとす我が出行ん後にギリシヤの君きたらん
Then saide he, Knowest thou wherefore I am come vnto thee? but nowe will I returne to fight with the prince of Persia: and when I am gone forth, loe, the prince of Grecia shall come.
21 但し我まづ眞實の書に記されたる所を汝に示すべし我を助けて彼らに敵る者は汝らの君ミカエルのみ
But I will shew thee that which is decreeed in the Scripture of trueth: and there is none that holdeth with me in these things, but Michael your prince.
