マタイの福音書 10
1 かくてイエスその十二 弟子を召し、穢れし靈を制する權威をあたへて、之を逐ひ出し、もろもろの病、もろもろの疾患を醫すことを得しめ給ふ。
And he called unto him his twelve disciples, and gave them authority over unclean spirits, to cast them out, and to heal all manner of disease and all manner of sickness.
2 十二 使徒の名は左のごとし。先づペテロといふシモン及びその兄弟アンデレ、ゼベダイの子ヤコブ及びその兄弟ヨハネ、
Now the names of the twelve apostles are these: The first, Simon, who is called Peter, and Andrew his brother; James the [son] of Zebedee, and John his brother;
3 ピリポ及びバルトロマイ、トマス及び取税人マタイ、アルパヨの子ヤコブ及びタダイ、
Philip, and Bartholomew; Thomas, and Matthew the publican; James the [son] of Alphaeus, and Thaddaeus;
4 熱心 黨のシモン及びイスカリオテのユダ、このユダはイエスを賣りし者なり。
Simon the Cananaean, and Judas Iscariot, who also betrayed him.
5 イエスこの十二 人を遣さんとて、命じて言ひたまふ。『異邦人の途にゆくな、又サマリヤ人の町に入るな。
These twelve Jesus sent forth, and charged them, saying, Go not into [any] way of the Gentiles, and enter not into any city of the Samaritans:
6 むしろイスラエルの家の失せたる羊にゆけ。
but go rather to the lost sheep of the house of Israel.
7 往きて宣べつたへ「天國は近づけり」と言へ。
And as ye go, preach, saying, The kingdom of heaven is at hand.
8 病める者をいやし、死にたる者を甦へらせ、癩病人をきよめ、惡鬼を逐ひいだせ。價なしに受けたれば價なしに與へよ。
Heal the sick, raise the dead, cleanse the lepers, cast out devils: freely ye received, freely give.
9 帶のなかに金・銀または錢をもつな。
Get you no gold, nor silver, nor brass in your purses;
10 旅の嚢も、二 枚の下衣も、鞋も、杖ももつな。勞動人の、その食物を得るは相應しきなり。
no wallet for [your] journey, neither two coats, nor shoes, nor staff: for the labourer is worthy of his food.
11 いづれの町いづれの村に入るとも、その中にて相應しき者を尋ねいだして、立ち去るまでは其處に留れ。
And into whatsoever city or village ye shall enter, search out who in it is worthy; and there abide till ye go forth.
12 人の家に入らば平安を祈れ。
And as ye enter into the house, salute it.
13 その家もし之に相應しくば、汝らの祈る平安はその上に臨まん。もし相應しからずば、その平安はなんぢらに歸らん。
And if the house be worthy, let your peace come upon it: but if it be not worthy, let your peace return to you.
14 人もし汝らを受けず、汝らの言を聽かずば、その家その町を立ち去るとき、足の塵をはらへ。
And whosoever shall not receive you, nor hear your words, as ye go forth out of that house or that city, shake off the dust of your feet.
15 まことに汝らに告ぐ、審判の日には、その町よりもソドム、ゴモラの地のかた耐へ易からん。
Verily I say unto you, It shall be more tolerable for the land of Sodom and Gomorrah in the day of judgment, than for that city.
16 視よ、我なんぢらを遣すは、羊を豺狼のなかに入るるが如し。この故に蛇のごとく慧く、鴿のごとく素直なれ。
Behold, I send you forth as sheep in the midst of wolves: be ye therefore wise as serpents, and harmless as doves.
17 人々に心せよ、それは汝らを衆議所に付し、會堂にて鞭うたん。
But beware of men: for they will deliver you up to councils, and in their synagogues they will scourge you;
18 また汝 等わが故によりて、司たち王たちの前に曳かれん。これは彼らと異邦人とに證をなさん爲なり。
yea and before governors and kings shall ye be brought for my sake, for a testimony to them and to the Gentiles.
19 かれら汝らを付さば、如何に何を言はんと思ひ煩ふな、言ふべき事は、その時さづけらるべし。
But when they deliver you up, be not anxious how or what ye shall speak: for it shall be given you in that hour what ye shall speak.
20 これ言ふものは汝 等にあらず、其の中にありて言ひたまふ汝らの父の靈なり。
For it is not ye that speak, but the Spirit of your Father that speaketh in you.
21 兄弟は兄弟を、父は子を死に付し、子どもは親に逆ひて之を死なしめん。
And brother shall deliver up brother to death, and the father his child: and children shall rise up against parents, and cause them to be put to death.
22 又なんぢら我が名のために凡ての人に憎まれん。されど終まで耐へ忍ぶものは救はるべし。
And ye shall be hated of all men for my name’s sake: but he that endureth to the end, the same shall be saved.
23 この町にて責めらるる時は、かの町に逃れよ。誠に汝らに告ぐ、なんぢらイスラエルの町々を巡り盡さぬうちに人の子は來るべし。
But when they persecute you in this city, flee into the next: for verily I say unto you, Ye shall not have gone through the cities of Israel, till the Son of man be come.
24 弟子はその師にまさらず、僕はその主にまさらず、
A disciple is not above his master, nor a servant above his lord.
25 弟子はその師のごとく、僕はその主の如くならば足れり。もし家主をベルゼブルと呼びたらんには、ましてその家の者をや。
It is enough for the disciple that he be as his master, and the servant as his lord. If they have called the master of the house Beelzebub, how much more [shall they call] them of his household!
26 この故に、彼らを懼るな。蔽はれたるものに露れぬはなく、隱れたるものに知られぬは無ければなり。
Fear them not therefore: for there is nothing covered, that shall not be revealed; and hid, that shall not be known.
27 暗黒にて我が告ぐることを光明にて言へ。耳をあてて聽くことを屋の上にて宣べよ。
What I tell you in the darkness, speak ye in the light: and what ye hear in the ear, proclaim upon the housetops.
And be not afraid of them which kill the body, but are not able to kill the soul: but rather fear him which is able to destroy both soul and body in hell. (Geenna g1067)
29 二 羽の雀は一錢にて賣るにあらずや、然るに、汝らの父の許なくば、その一 羽も地に落つること無からん。
Are not two sparrows sold for a farthing? and not one of them shall fall on the ground without your Father:
30 汝らの頭の髮までも皆かぞへらる。
but the very hairs of your head are all numbered.
31 この故におそるな、汝らは多くの雀よりも優るるなり。
Fear not therefore; ye are of more value than many sparrows.
32 されど凡そ人の前にて我を言ひあらはす者を、我もまた天にいます我が父の前にて言ひ顯さん。
Every one therefore who shall confess me before men, him will I also confess before my Father which is in heaven.
33 されど人の前にて我を否む者を、我もまた天にいます我が父の前にて否まん。
But whosoever shall deny me before men, him will I also deny before my Father which is in heaven.
34 われ地に平和を投ぜんために來れりと思ふな。平和にあらず、反つて劍を投ぜん爲に來れり。
Think not that I came to send peace on the earth: I came not to send peace, but a sword.
35 それ我が來れるは、人をその父より、娘をその母より、嫁をその姑嫜より分たん爲なり。
For I came to set a man at variance against his father, and the daughter against her mother, and the daughter in law against her mother in law:
36 人の仇はその家の者なるべし。
and a man’s foes [shall be] they of his own household.
37 我よりも父または母を愛する者は、我に相應しからず。我よりも息子または娘を愛する者は、我に相應しからず。
He that loveth father or mother more than me is not worthy of me; and he that loveth son or daughter more than me is not worthy of me.
38 又おのが十字架をとりて我に從はぬ者は、我に相應しからず。
And he that doth not take his cross and follow after me, is not worthy of me.
39 生命を得る者はこれを失ひ、我がために生命を失ふ者はこれを得べし。
He that findeth his life shall lose it; and he that loseth his life for my sake shall find it.
40 汝らを受くる者は、我を受くるなり。我をうくる者は、我を遣し給ひし者を受くるなり。
He that receiveth you receiveth me, and he that receiveth me receiveth him that sent me.
41 預言者たる名の故に預言者をうくる者は、預言者の報をうけ、義人たる名のゆゑに義人をうくる者は、義人の報を受くべし。
He that receiveth a prophet in the name of a prophet shall receive a prophet’s reward; and he that receiveth a righteous man in the name of a righteous man shall receive a righteous man’s reward.
42 凡そわが弟子たる名の故に、この小き者の一人に冷かなる水 一杯にても與ふる者は、まことに汝らに告ぐ、必ずその報を失はざるべし』
And whosoever shall give to drink unto one of these little ones a cup of cold water only, in the name of a disciple, verily I say unto you, he shall in no wise lose his reward.
