ヘブル人への手紙 9
1 初の契約には禮拜の定と世に屬する聖所とありき。
Now, the first covenant also had ordinances of worship, and the worldly sanctuary:
2 設けられたる幕屋あり、前なるを聖所と稱へ、その中に燈臺と案と供のパンとあり。
for a tabernacle was constructed, the first, in which were the candlestick, and the table, and the presence bread; and this tabernacle is called holy.
3 また第二の幕の後に至 聖所と稱ふる幕屋あり。
But after the second vail, the tabernacle which is called the holy of holies;
4 その中に金の香壇と金にて徧く覆ひたる契約の櫃とあり、この中にマナを納れたる金の壺と芽したるアロンの杖と契約の石碑とあり、
which had the golden censer, and the ark of the covenant overlaid on all sides with gold, in which were the golden pot that held the manna, and the rod of Aaron that budded, and the tables of the covenant;
5 櫃の上に榮光のケルビムありて贖罪所を覆ふ。これらの物に就きては、今 一々 言ふこと能はず、
and over the ark, the cherubim of glory overshadowing the mercy-seat; of which things we can not now speak particularly.
6 此 等のもの斯く備りたれば、祭司たちは常に前なる幕屋に入りて禮拜をおこなふ。
Now, when these things were thus arranged, the priests went, at all times, into the first tabernacle, discharging the service of God.
7 されど奧なる幕屋には、大 祭司のみ年に一度おのれと民との過失のために献ぐる血を携へて入るなり。
But into the second, the high priest alone went, once during the year, not without blood, which he offered for himself, and for the errors of the people:
8 之によりて聖 靈は前なる幕屋のなほ存するあひだ、至 聖所に入る道の未だ顯れざるを示し給ふ。
the Holy Spirit signifying this, that the way into the most holy was not yet made manifest, while the first tabernacle was still standing,
9 この幕屋はその時のために設けられたる比喩なり、之に循ひて献げたる供物と犧牲とは、禮拜をなす者の良心を全うすること能はざりき。
which, as a symbol, remains to the present time, in which are offered both gifts and sacrifices that can not make perfect, as it respects the conscience, him that does the service;
10 此 等はただ食物・飮物さまざまの濯事などに係り、肉に屬する定にして、改革の時まで負せられたるのみ。
since he relies only on meats and drinks and various immersions, ordinances indeed of the flesh, which were imposed till the time of reformation.
11 然れどキリストは來らんとする善き事の大 祭司として來り、手にて造らぬ此の世に屬せぬ更に大なる全き幕屋を經て、
But Christ, having come a high priest of the good things to come, through the greater and more perfect tabernacle, not made with hands, (that is, not of this building, )
entered, not by the blood of goats and calves, but by his own blood, once for all, into the most holy, having obtained eternal redemption. (aiōnios g166)
13 もし山羊および牡牛の血、牝牛の灰などを穢れし者にそそぎて其の肉體を潔むることを得ば、
For if the blood of bulls and goats, and the ashes of a heifer sprinkling the unclean, cleanses them as it respects the purity of the flesh,
how much more will the blood of the Christ, who, through the eternal Spirit, offered himself without spot to God, cleanse your conscience from dead works, in order that you may serve the living God? (aiōnios g166)
And for this reason, he is the mediator of the new covenant: that, since his death has taken place for the redemption of transgressions that were under the former covenant, those who are called may receive the promise of the eternal inheritance. (aiōnios g166)
16 それ遺言は必ず遺言 者の死を要す。
For where a testament is, it is necessary that there be brought in the death of the testator:
17 遺言は遺言 者 死にてのち始めて效あり、遺言 者の生くる間は效なきなり。
for a testament goes into effect after men are dead: seeing that it has no validity at all while the testator lives.
18 この故に初の契約も血なくして立てしにあらず。
Wherefore, the first covenant was not instituted without blood.
19 モーセ律法に循ひて諸般の誡命をすべての民に告げてのち、犢と山羊との血また水と緋色の毛とヒソプとをとりて、書および凡ての民にそそぎて言ふ、
For when Moses had spoken to all the people every commandment of the law, lie took the blood of calves and of goats, with water and scarlet wool and hyssop, and sprinkled both the book itself and all the people, saying:
20 『これ神の汝らに命じたまふ契約の血なり』と。
This is the blood of the covenant which God enjoins on you:
21 また同じく幕屋と祭のすべての器とに血をそそげり。
and, in like manner, he sprinkled with blood both the tabernacle, and all the vessels of the service.
22 おほよそ律法によれば、萬のもの血をもて潔めらる。もし血を流すことなくば、赦さるることなし。
And, indeed, according to the law, almost all things are cleansed by blood; and without the shedding of blood there is no remission.
23 この故に天に在るものに象りたる物は此 等にて潔められ、天にある物は此 等に勝りたる犧牲をもて潔めらるべきなり。
It was necessary, therefore, that the copies of the things in the heavens should be consecrated by these sacrifices; but that the heavenly things themselves should be consecrated by better sacrifices than these.
24 キリストは眞のものに象れる、手にて造りたる聖所に入らず、眞の天に入りて今より我等のために神の前にあらはれ給ふ。
For the Christ has not entered the holy places made with hands, the copies of the true; but he has entered heaven itself, now to present himself in the presence of God for us.
25 これ大 祭司が年ごとに他の物の血をもて聖所に入るごとく、屡次おのれを献ぐる爲にあらず。
Nor has he entered, that he should offer himself often, as the high priest enters the holy places every year with the blood of another:
for then, he must have suffered often since the foundation of the world. But now once in the end of the ages, he has appeared in order to put away sin by the sacrifice of himself. (aiōn g165)
27 一たび死ぬることと死にてのち審判を受くることとの人に定りたる如く、
And, as it is appointed to men once to die, and after this the judgment,
28 キリストも亦おほくの人の罪を負はんが爲に一たび献げられ、復 罪を負ふことなく、己を待 望む者に再び現れて救を得させ給ふべし。
so the Christ was once offered to bear the sins of many; and to those who look for him he will appear the second time, without a sin-offering, in order to salvation.
