< ルカの福音書 6 >

1 イエス安息 日に麥 畠を過ぎ給ふとき、弟子たち穗を摘み、手にて揉みつつ食ひたれば、
One (Sabbath/Jewish day of rest), while Jesus was walking through some grain fields with his disciples, the disciples picked some of the heads of grain. They rubbed them in their hands [to separate the grains from the husks], and ate the grain. [The law of Moses permitted people to do that if they were hungry].
2 パリサイ人のうち或 者ども言ふ『なんぢらは何ゆゑ安息 日に爲まじき事をするか』
Some Pharisees [who were watching] said to Jesus, “(You should not be doing on our rest day [work] that [our] laws forbid!/Why are you doing on our rest day [work] that our laws forbid?)” [RHQ]
3 イエス答へて言ひ給ふ『ダビデその伴へる人々とともに飢ゑしとき、爲しし事をすら讀まぬか。
[Jesus wanted to show them that the record in Scriptures indicated that God permitted people to disobey certain religious laws when they needed food]. [So] he replied, “[It is written in the Scriptures] what [our revered ancestor, King] David did when he and the men with him were hungry. You have read about that, ([but you do not think about what it implies/so why do you not think about what it implies]?) [RHQ]
4 即ち神の家に入りて、祭司の他は食ふまじき供のパンを取りて食ひ、己と偕なる者にも與へたり』
David entered God’s big worship tent [and asked for some food]. [The high priest gave him] the bread that the priests had presented to God. It was permitted [in] one of [Moses’ laws] that only the priests could eat that bread. But [even though David was not a priest], he ate some, and gave some to the men who were with him. [And God did not consider that what David did was wrong]!”
5 また言ひたまふ『人の子は安息 日の主たるなり』
Jesus also said to them, “[I am] the one who came from heaven, so [I] have the authority [to determine what is right for my disciples to do on] the day of rest!”
6 又ほかの安息 日に、イエス會堂に入りて教をなし給ひしに、此處に人あり、其の右の手なえたり。
Another (Sabbath/Jewish day of rest) Jesus entered a (synagogue/Jewish meeting place) and taught the people. There was a man there whose right hand was shriveled.
7 學者・パリサイ人ら、イエスを訴ふる廉を見出さんと思ひて、安息 日に人を醫すや否やを窺ふ。
The men who taught the [Jewish] laws and the Pharisees [who were there] watched Jesus, to see if he would heal the man (on the Sabbath/on the Jewish rest day). They did this so that, [if he healed the man], they would accuse him [of disobeying their laws by working on the day of rest].
8 イエス彼らの念を知りて、手なえたる人に『起きて中に立て』と言ひ給へば、起きて立てり。
But Jesus knew what they were thinking. So he said to the man with the shriveled hand, “Come and stand here [in front of everyone]!” So the man got up and stood there.
9 イエス彼らに言ひ給ふ『われ汝らに問はん、安息 日に善をなすと惡をなすと、生命を救ふと亡すと、孰かよき』
Then Jesus said to the others, “I ask you this: Do the laws that [God gave Moses] permit [people] to do what is good (on the Sabbath/on the Jewish rest day), or [do they permit people] to harm [others]? [Do they permit us] to save [a person’s] life [on our day of rest] or to let [him] die [HYP] [by refusing to help him]?”
10 かくて一同を見まはして、手なえたる人に『なんぢの手を伸べよ』と言ひ給ふ。かれ然なしたれば、その手 癒ゆ。
[They refused to answer him. So] after he looked around at them all, he said to the man, “Stretch out your [shriveled] hand!” The man did that, and his hand became all right again!
11 然るに彼ら狂氣の如くなりて、イエスに何をなさんと語り合へり。
But the men who taught the Jewish laws and the Pharisees were very angry, and they discussed with one another what they could do to [get rid of] Jesus.
12 その頃イエス祈らんとて山にゆき、神に祈りつつ夜を明したまふ。
About that time [Jesus] went up into the hills to pray. He prayed to God all night.
13 夜明になりて弟子たちを呼び寄せ、その中より十二 人を選びて、之を使徒と名づけたまふ。
The next day he summoned all his disciples to come near him. From them he chose twelve men, whom he called apostles.
14 即ちペテロと名づけ給ひしシモンと其の兄弟アンデレと、ヤコブとヨハネと、ピリポとバルトロマイと、
They were Simon, to whom he gave the [new] name, Peter; Andrew, Peter’s [younger] brother; James and [his younger brother], John; Philip; Bartholomew;
15 マタイとトマスと、アルパヨの子ヤコブと熱心 黨と呼ばるるシモンと、
Matthew, whose other name was Levi; Thomas; [another] James, the [son] of Alpheus; Simon, who belonged to the party [that encouraged people to] rebel [against the Roman government];
16 ヤコブの子ユダとイスカリオテのユダとなり。このユダはイエスを賣る者となりたり。
Judas, the [son] of [another] James; and Judas Iscariot (OR, Judas, the man from Kerioth [Town]), the one who later (betrayed Jesus./enabled the Jewish leaders to seize Jesus.)
17 イエス此 等とともに下りて、平かなる處に立ち給ひしに、弟子の大なる群衆、およびユダヤ全國、エルサレム又ツロ、シドンの海邊より來りて、或は教を聽かんとし、或は病を醫されんとする民の大なる群も、そこにあり。
[Jesus] came down from the hills with his disciples and stood on a level area. There was a very big crowd of his disciples there. There was also a large group of people who had come from Jerusalem and from many [other] places [in] Judea [district], and from the coastal areas near Tyre and Sidon [cities].
18 穢れし靈に惱されたる者も醫される。
They came to hear Jesus talk to them and to be healed {and for him to heal them} from their diseases. He also healed those whom evil spirits had troubled.
19 能力イエスより出でて、凡ての人を醫せば、群衆みなイエスに觸らん事を求む。
Everyone [in the crowd] tried to touch him, because he was healing everyone by [his/God’s] power.
20 イエス目をあげ弟子たちを見て言ひたまふ『幸福なるかな、貧しき者よ、神の國は汝らの有なり。
He looked [MTY] at his disciples and said, “[God] is pleased with you [who know] that you lack what [he wants you to have; ] he will allow you to be the people whose lives he rules over.
21 幸福なる哉、いま飢うる者よ、汝ら飽くことを得ん。幸福なる哉、いま泣く者よ、汝ら笑ふことを得ん。
[God] is pleased with you who sincerely desire to receive what [MTY] [he wants you to have]; he will give you what you need, until you are satisfied. [God] is pleased with you that grieve now [because of sin]. Later you will be joyful.
22 人なんぢらを憎み、人の子のために遠ざけ、謗り、汝らの名を惡しとして棄てなば、汝ら幸福なり。
[God] is pleased with you when [other] people hate you, when they will not let you join them, when they insult you, when they say that you are evil because [you believe in] me, the one who came from heaven.
23 その日には喜び躍れ。視よ、天にて汝らの報は大なり、彼らの先祖が預言者たちに爲ししも斯くありき。
When that happens, rejoice! Jump up and down because you are so happy! [God will give] you a great reward in heaven! [When they do these things to you, it will prove that you are God’s servants]. (OR, [People have always treated God’s servants like that].) Do not forget that these people’s ancestors did the same things to the prophets [who served God faithfully]!
24 されど禍害なるかな、富む者よ、汝らは既にその慰安を受けたり。
But there will be terrible punishment for you that are rich; the happiness you have received [from your riches] is the only happiness that you will get.
25 禍害なる哉、いま飽く者よ、汝らは飢ゑん。禍害なる哉、いま笑ふ者よ、汝らは、悲しみ泣かん。
There will be terrible punishment for you who [think that you] have all that you need now; you will [realize] that these things will not make you feel satisfied. There will be terrible punishment for you who are joyful now; you will [later] be very sad.
26 凡ての人、なんぢらを譽めなば、汝ら禍害なり。彼らの先祖が虚僞の預言者たちに爲ししも斯くありき。
When most [HYP] people speak well about you, trouble is ahead for you; [it will not prove that you are God’s servants, because] your ancestors used to speak well about those who falsely [claimed that they were] prophets.”
27 われ更に汝ら聽くものに告ぐ、なんじらの仇を愛し、汝らを憎む者を善くし、
“But I say this to each of you [disciples] who are listening [to what I say]: Love your enemies [as well as your friends]. Do good things for those who hate you!
28 汝らを詛ふ者を祝し、汝らを辱しむる者のために祈れ。
[Ask God to] bless those who curse you! Pray for those who mistreat you!
29 なんぢの頬を打つ者には、他の頬をも向けよ。なんぢの上衣を取る者には下衣をも拒むな。
If someone [insults one of you by] striking you on one of your cheeks, turn your face [so that he can strike] the other cheek [also]. If [a bandit] wants to take away your [(sg)] coat, let him also have your shirt.
30 すべて求むる者に與へ、なんぢの物を奪ふ者に復 索むな。
Give something to everyone who asks you [(sg) for something]. If someone takes away things that belong to you [(sg)], do not ask him to return them.
31 なんぢら人に爲られんと思ふごとく、人にも然せよ。
In whatever way you [(pl)] want others to act toward you, that is the way that you should act toward them.
32 なんぢら己を愛する者を愛せばとて、何の嘉すべき事あらん、罪人にても己を愛する者を愛するなり。
If you love [only] those who love you, do not [expect God] to praise you for [doing that] [RHQ], [because] even sinners love those who love them.
33 汝 等おのれに善をなす者に善を爲すとも、何の嘉すべき事あらん、罪人にても然するなり。
If you do good things [only] for those who do good things for you, do not [expect God] to reward you [for doing that] [RHQ], [because] even sinners do that.
34 なんぢら得る事あらんと思ひて人に貸すとも、何の嘉すべき事あらん、罪人にても均しきものを受けんとて罪人に貸すなり。
If you lend [things or money only] to those who you expect will give something back to you, do not [expect that God] will reward you [RHQ] [for doing that]. Even sinners lend to other sinners, because they expect them to pay everything back.
35 汝らは仇を愛し、善をなし、何をも求めずして貸せ、さらば、その報は大ならん。かつ至高者の子たるべし。至高者は、恩を知らぬもの惡しき者にも、仁慈あるなり。
Instead, love your enemies! Do good things for them! Lend to them, and do not expect them to pay anything back! [If you do that, God will give] you a big reward. And you will be [acting like] his children [should]. Remember that God is kind to people who are not grateful and to people who are wicked, [and he expects you to be like that too].
36 汝らの父の慈悲なるごとく、汝らも慈悲なれ。
Act mercifully toward others, just like your Father [in heaven acts] mercifully [toward you].”
37 人を審くな、さらば汝らも審かるる事あらじ。人を罪に定むな、さらば、汝らも罪に定めらるる事あらじ。人を赦せ、さらば汝らも赦されん。
“Do not say how sinfully others have acted, and then [God] will not say how sinfully you have acted. Do not condemn others, and then [he] will not condemn you [DOU]. Forgive others [for the evil things that they have done to you], and then [God] will forgive you.
38 人に與へよ、さらば汝らも與へられん。人は量をよくし、押し入れ、搖り入れ、溢るるまでにして、汝らの懷中に入れん。汝 等おのが量る量にて量らるべし』
Give [good things to others], and then [God] will give [good] things to you. It will be [as though] [MET] [God is putting things in a basket] for you. He will give you a full amount, pressed down in the basket, which he will shake [so that he can put more in], and it will spill over the sides! [Remember that] the way you act [toward others] will be the way that [God] will act toward you!”
39 また譬にて言ひたまふ『盲人は盲人を手引するを得んや。二人とも穴に落ちざらんや。
He also told [his disciples] this parable [to show them that they should be like him, and not be like the Jewish religious leaders]: “(You certainly would not [expect] a blind man to lead another blind man./Would you [expect] a blind man to lead [another] blind man?) [RHQ] If he tried to do [that], (they would both probably fall into a hole!/wouldn’t they both probably fall into a hole?) [RHQ] [I am your teacher, and you disciples should be like me].
40 弟子はその師に勝らず、凡そ全うせられたる者は、その師の如くならん。
A disciple should not [expect to be] better known than his teacher. But if a student is fully trained {if someone fully trains a student}, the student can become like his teacher [MET]. [So you should be content to be like me].
41 何ゆゑ兄弟の目にある塵を見て、己が目にある梁木を認めぬか。
(Why do you notice [someone else’s small faults]?/None of you should be concerned about [someone else’s small faults] [MET, RHQ].) [That would be like] noticing a speck in that person’s eye. But you should be concerned about [your own big faults. They are like] planks in your own eye, [which you do not notice].
42 おのが目にある梁木を見ずして、爭で兄弟に向ひて「兄弟よ、汝の目にある塵を取り除かせよ」といふを得んや。僞善者よ、先づ己が目より梁木を取り除け。さらば明かに見えて、兄弟の目にある塵を取りのぞき得ん。
(You [(sg)] should not say, ‘Friend, let me take out that speck in your eye!’ when you do not notice the log in your own eye!/Why do you say, ‘Friend, let me take out that speck in your eye!’ when you do not notice the log in your own eye?) [RHQ] [If you do that], you are a hypocrite! You should first [stop committing your own sins. That will be like] removing the plank from your own eye. Then, as a result, you will have the spiritual insight you need to help others get rid of the [faults that are like] specks in their eyes.”
43 惡しき果を結ぶ善き樹はなく、また善き果を結ぶ惡しき樹はなし。
“[People are like trees] [MET]. Healthy trees do not bear bad fruit (OR, bear only good fruit), and unhealthy trees do not bear good fruit.
44 樹はおのおの其の果によりて知らる。茨より無花果を取らず、野荊より葡萄を收めざるなり。
[Just like you] can tell if a tree is good or bad by looking at its fruit, [you can tell which people are good and which are bad by looking at the way they] conduct their lives. [For example, because thornbushes cannot produce figs], no one can pick figs from thornbushes. And [since bramble bushes cannot produce grapes], no one can [pick] grapes from bramble bushes.
45 善き人は心の善き倉より善きものを出し、惡しき人は惡しき倉より惡しき物を出す。それ心に滿つるより、口は物 言ふなり。
[Similarly], good people will conduct their lives in a good way because they think a lot of good [things], and evil people will live in an evil way because they think a lot of evil [things]. The basic principle is that people speak [and act] according to all that they think.”
46 なんぢら我を「主よ主よ」と呼びつつ、何ぞ我が言ふことを行はぬか。
“[Because people should obey what their masters tell them], (it is disgraceful that you say that I am your master but you do not do what I tell you!/why do you say that I am your master but you do not do what I tell you?) [RHQ]
47 凡そ我にきたり我が言を聽きて行ふ者は、如何なる人に似たるかを示さん。
Some people come to me, and hear my messages and obey them. I will tell you what they are like.
48 即ち家を建つるに、地を深く掘り岩の上に基を据ゑたる人のごとし。洪水いでて流その家を衝けども動かすこと能はず、これ固く建てられたる故なり。
They are like a man who dug deep [into the ground to prepare to build his house]. He made sure that the foundation was on solid ground. Then when there was a flood, the water tried to wash away the house. But the river could not shake the house, because it was built {he built it} on a solid [foundation].
49 されど聽きて行はぬ者は、基なくして家を土の上に建てたる人のごとし。流その家を衝けば、直ちに崩れて、その破壞はなはだし』
But some people hear my messages but do not obey them. They are like a man who built a house on top of the ground without [digging] a foundation. When the river flooded, the house collapsed immediately and was completely ruined. [So it is important for you to obey what I teach you].”
