マルコの福音書 1
1 神の子イエス、キリストの福音の始。
([This is/I want to tell you]) the good message about Jesus Christ, the Son of God (OR, the man who was also God). [What I want to tell you] begins just like the prophet Isaiah [said it would begin, when] he wrote [these words that God said to Jesus: ] Listen! I am sending my messenger ahead of you. He will prepare [people for] your [coming].
2 預言者イザヤの書に、『視よ、我なんぢの顏の前に、わが使を遣す、彼なんぢの道を設くべし。
3 荒野に呼はる者の聲す、「主の道を備へ、その路すぢを直くせよ」』と録されたる如く、
He will call out to people [who pass by where he is] in the desolate area, “As people improve and straighten out pathways [before an important official arrives] [MET], make [yourselves] ready [DOU] [in order that you will be prepared when] the Lord [comes].”
4 バプテスマのヨハネ出で、荒野にて罪の赦を得さする悔改のバプテスマを宣傳ふ。
[The messenger that Isaiah predicted was] John. [People called him] ‘The Baptizer’. In the desolate area near the Jordan River he kept telling people, “If you want God to forgive you for having sinned, you must turn away from your sinful behavior [before you ask me to] baptize [you].”
5 ユダヤ全國またエルサレムの人々、みな其の許に出で來りて罪を言ひあらはし、ヨルダン川にてバプテスマを受けたり。
A great number [HYP] of people who lived in Jerusalem [city] and [elsewhere] in the Judea [district] were going out to where John was. There, [after hearing John’s message], they [responded by] confessing the sinful things [that they had done]. Then they were being baptized by John {John was baptizing them} in the Jordan River.
6 ヨハネは駱駝の毛織を著、腰に皮の帶して、蝗と野蜜とを食へり。
John wore [rough] clothes made of camel’s hair. And [as the prophet Elijah had done], he wore a leather belt around his waist; and what he ate was [only] grasshoppers and honey [that he found] in that desolate area.
7 かれ宣傳へて言ふ『我よりも力ある者、わが後に來る。我は屈みてその鞋の紐をとくにも足らず、
He was preaching, “Very shortly a man will come who is very great. I [am nothing compared to him. Because he is so superior to me], I am not even worthy to [serve him like a slave] by stooping down and untying his sandals.
8 我は水にて汝らにバプテスマを施せり。されど彼は聖 靈にてバプテスマを施さん』
I used [only] water when I baptized you [because you said that you wanted to change your lives], but he will put his Holy Spirit [within] you [to truly change your lives].”
9 その頃イエス、ガリラヤのナザレより來り、ヨルダンにてヨハネよりバプテスマを受け給ふ。
During that time [when John was preaching], Jesus came from Nazareth [town], which is in Galilee [district]. He went to [where John was preaching] and he was baptized by John {John baptized him} in the Jordan [River].
10 かくて水より上るをりしも、天さけゆき、御靈、鴿のごとく己に降るを見 給ふ。
Immediately after [Jesus] came up out of the water, he saw heaven opened up [and he saw] the Spirit [of God] descending on himself. He came in the form of a dove.
11 かつ天より聲 出づ『なんぢは我が愛しむ子なり、我なんぢを悦ぶ』
And [God] [MTY] spoke to him from heaven saying, “You are my Son, whom I love dearly. I am very pleased with you.”
12 かくて御靈ただちにイエスを荒野に逐ひやる。
(Then/Right away) the Spirit [of God] sent Jesus into the desolate area.
13 荒野にて四十 日の間サタンに試みられ、獸とともに居給ふ、御使たち之に事へぬ。
He was there for 40 days. During that time, he was tempted by Satan {Satan tempted him}. There were wild animals [there] also. But angels took care of him.
14 ヨハネの囚はれし後、イエス、ガリラヤに到り、神の福音を宣傳へて言ひ給ふ、
Later, after John was put in prison {after [soldiers] put John in prison} [because he had rebuked the governor Herod Antipas for his sins], Jesus went to Galilee [district]. There he was preaching the good message [that came] from God.
15 『時は滿てり、神の國は近づけり、汝ら悔改めて福音を信ぜよ』
He was repeatedly saying, “Now is the time when God will begin to rule people’s lives [in a new way]. [So] turn away from your sinful behavior! Believe the good message [in order] ([to belong to him/to become those whose lives he will rule])!”
16 イエス、ガリラヤの海にそひて歩みゆき、シモンと其の兄弟アンデレとが、海に網うちをるを見 給ふ。かれらは漁人なり。
[One day], while Jesus was walking along by Galilee Lake, he saw [two men], Simon and Simon’s [younger] brother, Andrew. They were casting their [fishing] net into the lake. They [earned money by] catching [and selling] fish.
17 イエス言ひ給ふ『われに從ひきたれ、汝 等をして人を漁る者とならしめん』
Then Jesus said to them, “[Just like you have been] gathering fish, come with me and I will [teach] you how to [gather people to become my disciples]” [MET].
18 彼ら直ちに網をすてて從へり。
Immediately they abandoned [the work that they were doing with] their nets, and they went with him.
19 少し進みゆきて、ゼベダイの子ヤコブとその兄弟ヨハネとを見 給ふ、彼らも舟にありて網を繕ひゐたり。
After they had gone on a little further, Jesus saw [two other men], James and James’ [younger] brother, John. They were the sons of [a man named] Zebedee. They were both in a boat mending [fishing] nets.
20 直ちに呼び給へば、父ゼベダイを雇人とともに舟に遺して從ひゆけり。
As soon as Jesus saw them, he told them that [they should leave their work and to come with him]. So they left their father, [who remained] in the boat with the hired servants, and they went away with Jesus.
21 かくて彼らカペナウムに到る、イエス直ちに安息 日に會堂にいりて教へ給ふ。
[Later] Jesus [and those disciples] arrived at Capernaum [town]. On the next (Sabbath/Jewish rest day), after Jesus had entered (the synagogue/the Jewish meeting place), he began teaching [the people who had gathered there].
22 人々その教に驚きあへり。それは學者の如くならず、權威ある者のごとく教へ給ふゆゑなり。
They were continually amazed at the way he taught. [He did] not [just teach what others had taught], like the men who teach the [Jewish] laws did. [They habitually just repeated what other people had taught]. Instead, he taught with [his own] authority.
23 時にその會堂に、穢れし靈に憑かれたる人あり、叫びて言ふ
Suddenly, [while he was teaching], a man [appeared] in their worship place who had an evil spirit in him, and he shouted,
24 『ナザレのイエスよ、我らは汝と何の關係あらんや、汝は我らを亡さんとて來給ふ。われは汝の誰なるを知る、神の聖者なり』
“Jesus, from Nazareth [town, since] we [evil spirits] have nothing in common with you, ([do not interfere with us]!/what do you want with us [evil spirits]?) [RHQ] (Do not destroy us [now]!/Have you come to destroy us [now]?) [RHQ] I know who you are. I know that you are the holy one [who has come] from God!”
25 イエス禁めて言ひ給ふ『默せ、その人を出でよ』
Jesus rebuked [the evil spirit], saying, “Be quiet! And come out [of the man]!”
26 穢れし靈その人を痙攣けさせ、大聲をあげて出づ。
The evil spirit shook the man hard. He screamed loudly, and then he came out of the man [and left].
27 人々みな驚き相 問ひて言ふ『これ何事ぞ、權威ある新しき教なるかな、穢れし靈すら命ずれば從ふ』
All [the people who were there] were amazed. As a result, they discussed this among themselves, [exclaiming], “(This is [amazing]!/What is this?) [RHQ] Not only does he teach in a new and authoritative way, but also the evil spirits obey him [when] he commands [them]!”
28 ここにイエスの噂あまねくガリラヤの四方に弘りたり。
The people very soon told [many others] throughout the whole Galilee district what Jesus [had done].
29 會堂をいで、直ちにヤコブとヨハネとを伴ひて、シモン及びアンデレの家に入り給ふ。
After they left (the synagogue/the Jewish meeting place), [Jesus, Simon and Andrew], along with James and John went directly to Simon and Andrew’s house.
30 シモンの外姑、熱をやみて臥しゐたれば、人々ただちに之をイエスに告ぐ。
Simon’s mother-in-law was lying in bed because she had a [high] fever. Right away someone told Jesus about her [being sick].
31 イエス往きて、その手をとり、起し給へば、熱さりて女かれらに事ふ。
He went to her, and helped her up by taking hold of her hand. She recovered [at once] from the fever, and then she [got up and] served them [some food].
32 夕となり、日いりてのち、人々すべての病ある者・惡鬼に憑かれたる者をイエスに連れ來り、
That evening, after the sun had gone down [and restrictions about travel on the Sabbath/on the Jewish rest day]) [were ended], some people brought to Jesus many people who were sick and others whose lives evil spirits were controlling.
33 全町こぞりて門に集る。
[It seemed as though] everyone [HYP, MTY] [who lived in] the town was gathered at the doorway [of Simon’s house].
34 イエスさまざまの病を患ふ多くの人をいやし、多くの惡鬼を逐ひいだし、之に物 言ふことを免し給はず、惡鬼イエスを知るに因りてなり。
Jesus healed many people who were ill with various diseases. He also expelled many demons [from people]. He did not allow the demons to tell people [about him], because they knew that he [had come from God, and for various reasons he did not want everyone to know that yet].
35 朝まだき暗き程に、イエス起き出でて、寂しき處にゆき、其處にて祈りゐたまふ。
Jesus got up very early [the next morning] while it was still dark. He left [the house] and went away [from the town] to a place where there were no people. Then he prayed there.
36 シモン及び之と偕にをる者ども、その跡を慕ひゆき、
Simon and his companions searched for him. When they found him, [wanting him to go back to town to help other people], they said to him,
37 イエスに遇ひて言ふ『人みな汝を尋ぬ』
“[Come back to the town with us, because] many [HYP] people [in Capernaum] are looking for you!”
38 イエス言ひ給ふ『いざ最寄の村々に往かん、われ彼處にも教を宣ぶべし、我はこの爲に出で來りしなり』
He said to them, “[No], let’s go on to the neighboring towns in order that I can preach there also, because the reason that I came [into the world] was to [preach to people] in many places!”
39 遂にゆきて、徧くガリラヤの會堂にて教を宣べ、かつ惡鬼を逐ひ出し給へり。
So they went throughout Galilee [district. As they did so, each (Sabbath/Jewish rest day]) he preached in (synagogues/Jewish meeting places). He was also expelling evil spirits [from people].
40 一人の癩病人みもとに來り、跪づき請ひて言ふ『御意ならば、我を潔くなし給ふを得ん』
[One day] a man who had [a bad skin disease called] leprosy came to Jesus. He knelt down in front of Jesus and then he pleaded with him saying, “[Please heal me, because I know] you are able to heal me if you want to!”
41 イエス憫みて、手をのべ彼につけて『わが意なり、潔くなれ』と言ひ給へば、
Jesus felt very sorry for him. [So he ignored the religious laws about coming close to people who had that disease]. He reached out his hand and touched the man. Then he said to him, “Since I am willing [to heal you], be healed {I heal you} [now]!”
42 直ちに癩病さりて、その人きよまれり。
Immediately the man was healed! He was no longer a leper!
43 やがて彼を去らしめんとて、嚴しく戒めて言ひ給ふ
Jesus spoke sternly to him before he sent him away.
44 『つつしみて誰にも語るな、唯ゆきて己を祭司に見せ、モーセが命じたる物を汝の潔のために献げて、人々に證せよ』
What Jesus said was, “Go to a local priest and show yourself to him [in order that he may examine you and verify that you are healed]. Then, [after the priest tells the local people], they will know [that you have been healed, and you will be able to associate with them again]. Make sure that you do not tell others [about what happened] Then go to [Jerusalem and take to the priest what Moses commanded that people who have been healed from leprosy should offer, in order that he] may offer it [as a sacrifice to God].”
45 されど彼いでて此の事を大に述べつたへ、徧く弘め始めたれば、この後イエスあらはに町に入りがたく、外の寂しき處に留りたまふ。人々 四方より御許に來れり。
The man went [and presented himself to the priest. But then] he began to tell many people about [how Jesus had healed him] [DOU]. As a result, Jesus was no longer able to enter any town publicly [because the crowds would surround him]. Instead, he remained outside [the towns] in places [where no people lived]. But people kept coming to him from all over that region.
