ヘブル人への手紙 1
1 神むかしは預言者 等により、多くに分ち、多くの方法をもて先祖たちに語り給ひしが、
God spoke to our fathers long ago at many times and in many ways through the prophets, but in these last days he has spoken to us through his Son,
whom he appointed heir of all things, and through whom he made the universe. (aiōn g165)
3 御子は神の榮光のかがやき、神の本質の像にして、己が權能の言をもて萬の物を保ちたまふ。また罪の潔をなして、高き處にある稜威の右に坐し給へり。
He is the radiance of God's glory and the exact representation of his nature, sustaining all things by his powerful word. When he had made purification for our sins by giving his own life, he sat down at the right hand of the Majesty in high places,
4 その受け給ひし名の御使の名に勝れるごとく、御使よりは更に勝る者となり給へり。
having become as much superior to the angels as the name he has inherited is more excellent than theirs.
5 神は孰の御使に曾て斯くは言ひ給ひしぞ『なんぢは我が子なり、われ今日なんぢを生めり』と。また『われ彼の父となり、彼わが子とならん』と。
For to which of the angels did God ever say, “Yoʋ are my Son; today I have begotten yoʋ”? Or again, “I will be his Father, and he will be my Son”?
6 また初子を再び世に入れ給ふとき『神の凡ての使は之を拜すべし』と言ひ給ふ。
And again, when he brings his firstborn into the world, he says, “Let all the angels of God worship him.”
7 また御使たちに就きては『神は、その使たちを風となし、その事ふる者を焔となす』と言ひ給ふ。
Of the angels he says, “He makes his angels winds, and his servants a flame of fire,”
but of the Son he says, “Yoʋr throne, O God, endures forever and ever; the scepter of yoʋr kingdom is a scepter of uprightness. (aiōn g165)
9 なんぢは義を愛し、不法をにくむ。この故に神なんぢの神は歡喜の油を、汝の友に勝りて汝にそそぎ給へり』と。
Yoʋ have loved righteousness and hated lawlessness; therefore God, yoʋr God, has anointed yoʋ with the oil of gladness beyond yoʋr companions.”
10 また『主よ、なんぢ太初に地の基を置きたまへり、天も御手の業なり。
And, “In the beginning yoʋ, O Lord, laid the foundation of the earth, and the heavens are the works of yoʋr hands.
11 これらは滅びん、されど汝は常に存へたまはん。これらはみな衣のごとく舊びん。
They will perish, but yoʋ remain; they will all wear out like a garment.
12 而して汝これらを袍のごとく疊み給はん、これらは衣のごとく變らん。されど汝はかはり給ふことなく汝の齡は終らざるなり』と言ひたまふ。
Yoʋ will roll them up like a robe, and they will be changed. But yoʋ remain the same, and yoʋr years will never come to an end.”
13 又いづれの御使に曾て斯くは言ひ給ひしぞ『われ汝の仇を汝の足臺となすまでは、我が右に坐せよ』と。
To which of the angels did God ever say, “Sit at my right hand until I make yoʋr enemies a footstool for yoʋr feet”?
14 御使はみな事へまつる靈にして、救を嗣がんとする者のために職を執るべく遣されたる者にあらずや。
Are they not all ministering spirits sent out to serve those who will inherit salvation?
