ルカの福音書 7
1 イエス凡て此らの言を民に聞かせ終へて後、カペナウムに入り給ふ。
After he had ended all his sayings in the ears of the people, he entered into Capernaum.
2 時に或 百卒長、その重んずる僕やみて死ぬばかりなりしかば、
And a certain centurion’s servant, who was dear unto him, was sick and at the point of death.
3 イエスの事を聽きて、ユダヤ人の長老たちを遣し、來りて僕を救ひ給はんことを願ふ。
And when he heard concerning Jesus, he sent unto him elders of the Jews, asking him that he would come and save his servant.
4 彼らイエスの許にいたり、切に請ひて言ふ『かの人は此の事を爲らるるに相應し。
And they, when they came to Jesus, besought him earnestly, saying, He is worthy that thou shouldest do this for him:
5 わが國人を愛し、我らのために會堂を建てたり』
for he loveth our nation, and himself built us our synagogue.
6 イエス共に往き給ひて、その家はや程 近くなりしとき、百卒長、數人の友を遣して言はしむ『主よ、自らを煩はし給ふな。我は汝をわが屋根の下に入れまつるに足らぬ者なり。
And Jesus went with them. And when he was now not far from the house, the centurion sent friends to him, saying unto him, Lord, trouble not thyself: for I am not worthy that thou shouldest come under my roof:
7 されば御前に出づるにも相應しからずと思へり、ただ御言を賜ひて我が僕をいやし給へ。
wherefore neither thought I myself worthy to come unto thee: but say the word, and my servant shall be healed.
8 我みづから權威の下に置かるる者なるに、我が下にまた兵卒ありて、此に「往け」と言へば往き、彼に「來れ」と言へば來り、わが僕に「これを爲せ」と言へば爲すなり』
For I also am a man set under authority, having under myself soldiers: and I say to this one, Go, and he goeth; and to another, Come, and he cometh; and to my servant, Do this, and he doeth it.
9 イエス聞きて彼を怪しみ、振反りて從ふ群衆に言ひ給ふ『われ汝らに告ぐ、イスラエルの中にだに斯かるあつき信仰は見しことなし』
And when Jesus heard these things, he marveled at him, and turned and said unto the multitude that followed him, I say unto you, I have not found so great faith, no, not in Israel.
10 遣されたる者ども家に歸りて僕を見れば、既に健康となれり。
And they that were sent, returning to the house, found the servant whole.
11 その後イエス、ナインといふ町にゆき給ひしに、弟子たち及び大なる群衆も共に往く。
And it came to pass soon afterwards, that he went to a city called Nain; and his disciples went with him, and a great multitude.
12 町の門に近づき給ふとき、視よ、舁き出さるる死人あり。これは獨 息子にて母は寡婦なり、町の多くの人々これに伴ふ。
Now when he drew near to the gate of the city, behold, there was carried out one that was dead, the only son of his mother, and she was a widow: and much people of the city was with her.
13 主、寡婦を見て憫み『泣くな』と言ひて、
And when the Lord saw her, he had compassion on her, and said unto her, Weep not.
14 近より、柩に手をつけ給へば、舁くもの立ち止る。イエス言ひたまふ『若者よ、我なんぢに言ふ、起きよ』
And he came nigh and touched the bier: and the bearers stood still. And he said, Young man, I say unto thee, Arise.
15 死人、起きかへりて物 言ひ始む。イエス之を母に付したまふ。
And he that was dead sat up, and began to speak. And he gave him to his mother.
16 人々みな懼をいだき、神を崇めて言ふ『大なる預言者われらの中に興れり』また言ふ『神その民を顧み給へり』
And fear took hold on all: and they glorified God, saying, A great prophet is arisen among us: and, God hath visited his people.
17 この事ユダヤ全國および最寄の地に徧くひろまりぬ。
And this report went forth concerning him in the whole of Judaea, and all the region round about.
18 偖ヨハネの弟子たち、凡て此 等のことを告げたれば、
And the disciples of John told him of all these things.
19 ヨハネ兩 三人の弟子を呼び、主に遣して言はしむ『來るべき者は汝なるか、或は他に待つべきか』
And John calling unto him two of his disciples sent them to the Lord, saying, Art thou he that cometh, or look we for another?
20 彼ら御許に到りて言ふ『バプテスマのヨハネ、我らを遣して言はしむ「來るべき者は汝なるか、或は他に待つべきか」』
And when the men were come unto him, they said, John the Baptist hath sent us unto thee, saying, Art thou he that cometh, or look we for another?
21 この時イエス多くの者の病・疾患を醫し、惡しき靈を逐ひいだし、又おほくの盲人に見ることを得しめ給ひしが、
In that hour he cured many of diseases and plagues and evil spirits; and on many that were blind he bestowed sight.
22 答へて言ひたまふ『往きて汝らが見 聞せし所をヨハネに告げよ。盲人は見、跛者はあゆみ、癩病人は潔められ、聾者はきき、死人は甦へらせられ、貧しき者は福音を聞かせらる。
And he answered and said unto them, Go your way, and tell John what things ye have seen and heard; the blind receive their sight, the lame walk, the lepers are cleansed, and the deaf hear, the dead are raised up, the poor have good tidings preached to them.
23 おほよそ我に躓かぬ者は幸福なり』
And blessed is he, whosoever shall find none occasion of stumbling in me.
24 ヨハネの使の去りたる後、ヨハネの事を群衆に言ひいで給ふ『なんぢら何を眺めんとて野に出でし、風にそよぐ葦なるか。
And when the messengers of John were departed, he began to say unto the multitudes concerning John, What went ye out into the wilderness to behold? a reed shaken with the wind?
25 さらば何を見んとて出でし、柔かき衣を著たる人なるか。視よ、華美なる衣をきて奢り暮す者は王宮に在り。
But what went ye out to see? a man clothed in soft raiment? Behold, they which are gorgeously apparelled, and live delicately, are in kings’ courts.
26 さらば何を見んとて出でし、預言者なるか。然り、我なんぢらに告ぐ、預言者よりも勝る者なり。
But what went ye out to see? a prophet? Yea, I say unto you, and much more than a prophet.
27 「視よ、わが使を汝の顏の前につかはす。かれは汝の前になんじの道をそなへん」と録されたるは此の人なり。
This is he of whom it is written, Behold, I send my messenger before thy face, Who shall prepare thy way before thee.
28 われ汝らに告ぐ、女の産みたる者の中、ヨハネより大なる者はなし。されど神の國にて小き者も、彼よりは大なり。
I say unto you, Among them that are born of women there is none greater than John: yet he that is but little in the kingdom of God is greater than he.
29 （凡ての民これを聞きて、取税人までも神を正しとせり。ヨハネのバプテスマを受けたるによる。
And all the people when they heard, and the publicans, justified God, being baptized with the baptism of John.
30 されどパリサイ人・教法師らは、其のバプテスマを受けざりしにより、各自にかかはる神の御旨をこばみたり）
But the Pharisees and the lawyers rejected for themselves the counsel of God, being not baptized of him.
31 さればわれ今の代の人を何に比へん。彼らは何に似たるか。
Whereunto then shall I liken the men of this generation, and to what are they like?
32 彼らは、童 市場に坐し、たがひに呼びて「われら汝らの爲に笛 吹きたれど、汝ら躍らず。歎きたれど、汝ら泣かざりき」と云ふに似たり。
They are like unto children that sit in the marketplace, and call one to another; which say, We piped unto you, and ye did not dance; we wailed, and ye did not weep.
33 それはバプテスマのヨハネ來りて、パンをも食はず葡萄酒をも飮まねば、「惡鬼に憑かれたる者なり」と汝ら言ひ、
For John the Baptist is come eating no bread nor drinking wine; and ye say, He hath a devil.
34 人の子きたりて飮食すれば「視よ、食を貪り、酒を好む人、また取税人・罪人の友なり」と汝ら言ふなり。
The Son of man is come eating and drinking; and ye say, Behold, a gluttonous man, and a winebibber, a friend of publicans and sinners!
35 されど智慧は己が凡ての子によりて正しとせらる』
And wisdom is justified of all her children.
36 ここに或パリサイ人ともに食せん事をイエスに請ひたれば、パリサイ人の家に入りて、席につき給ふ。
And one of the Pharisees desired him that he would eat with him. And he entered into the Pharisee’s house, and sat down to meat.
37 視よ、この町に罪ある一人の女あり。イエスのパリサイ人の家にて食事の席にゐ給ふを知り、香 油の入りたる石膏の壺を持ちきたり、
And behold, a woman which was in the city, a sinner; and when she knew that he was sitting at meat in the Pharisee’s house, she brought an alabaster cruse of ointment,
38 泣きつつ御足 近く後にたち、涙にて御足をうるほし、頭の髮にて之を拭ひ、また御足に接吻して香 油を抹れり。
and standing behind at his feet, weeping, she began to wet his feet with her tears, and wiped them with the hair of her head, and kissed his feet, and anointed them with the ointment.
39 イエスを招きたるパリサイ人これを見て、心のうちに言ふ『この人もし預言者ならば、觸る者の誰、如何なる女なるかを知らん、彼は罪人なるに』
Now when the Pharisee which had bidden him saw it, he spake within himself, saying, This man, if he were a prophet, would have perceived who and what manner of woman this is which touched him, that she is a sinner.
40 イエス答へて言ひ給ふ『シモン、我なんぢに言ふことあり』シモンいふ『師よ、言ひたまへ』
And Jesus answering said unto him, Simon, I have somewhat to say unto thee. And he saith, Master, say on.
41 『或 債主に二人の負債者ありて、一人はデナリ五 百、一人は五 十の負債せしに、
A certain lender had two debtors: the one owed five hundred pence, and the other fifty.
42 償ひかたなければ、債主この二人を共に免せり。されば二人のうち債主を愛すること孰か多き』
When they had not [wherewith] to pay, he forgave them both. Which of them therefore will love him most?
43 シモン答へて言ふ『われ思ふに、多く免されたる者ならん』イエス言ひ給ふ『なんぢの判斷は當れり』
Simon answered and said, He, I suppose, to whom he forgave the most. And he said unto him, Thou hast rightly judged.
44 かくて女の方に振向きてシモンに言ひ給ふ『この女を見るか。我なんぢの家に入りしに、なんぢは我に足の水を與へず、此の女は涙にて我 足を濡し、頭髮にて拭へり。
And turning to the woman, he said unto Simon, Seest thou this woman? I entered into thine house, thou gavest me no water for my feet: but she hath wetted my feet with her tears, and wiped them with her hair.
45 なんぢは我に接吻せず、此の女は我が入りし時より、我が足に接吻して止まず。
Thou gavest me no kiss: but she, since the time I came in, hath not ceased to kiss my feet.
46 なんぢは我が頭に油を抹らず、此の女は我が足に香 油を抹れり。
My head with oil thou didst not anoint: but she hath anointed my feet with ointment.
47 この故に我なんぢに告ぐ、この女の多くの罪は赦されたり。その愛すること大なればなり。赦さるる事の少き者は、その愛する事もまた少し』
Wherefore I say unto thee, Her sins, which are many, are forgiven; for she loved much: but to whom little is forgiven, [the same] loveth little.
48 遂に女に言ひ給ふ『なんぢの罪は赦されたり』
And he said unto her, Thy sins are forgiven.
49 同席の者ども心の内に『罪をも赦す此の人は誰なるか』と言ひ出づ。
And they that sat at meat with him began to say within themselves, Who is this that even forgiveth sins?
50 ここにイエス女に言ひ給ふ『なんぢの信仰なんぢを救へり、安らかに往け』
And he said unto the woman, Thy faith hath saved thee; go in peace.
