ヨハネの黙示録 10
1 我また一人の強き御使の、雲を著て天より降るを見たり。その頭の上に虹あり、その顏は日の如く、その足は火の柱のごとし。
And I saw another mighty angel come down from heaven, clothed with a cloud: and a rainbow was upon his head, and his face was as it were the sun, and his feet as pillars of fire:
2 その手には展きたる小き卷 物をもち、右の足を海の上におき、左の足を地の上におき、
And he had in his hand a little book open: and he set his right foot upon the sea, and his left foot on the earth,
3 獅子の吼ゆる如く大聲に呼はれり、呼はりたるとき七つの雷霆おのおの聲を出せり。
And cried with a loud voice, as when a lion roareth: and when he had cried, seven thunders uttered their voices.
4 七つの雷霆の語りし時、われ書き記さんとせしに、天より聲ありて『七つの雷霆の語りしことは封じて書き記すな』といふを聞けり。
And when the seven thunders had uttered their voices, I was about to write: and I heard a voice from heaven saying unto me, Seal up those things which the seven thunders uttered, and write them not.
5 かくて我が見しところの海と地とに跨り立てる御使は、天にむかひて右の手を擧げ、
And the angel which I saw stand upon the sea and upon the earth lifted up his hand to heaven,
And sware by him that liveth for ever and ever, who created heaven, and the things that therein are, and the earth, and the things that therein are, and the sea, and the things which are therein, that there should be time no longer: (aiōn g165)
7 第七の御使の吹かんとするラッパの聲の出づる時に至りて、神の僕なる預言者たちに示し給ひし如く、その奧義は成就せらるべし』
But in the days of the voice of the seventh angel, when he shall begin to sound, the mystery of God should be finished, as he hath declared to his servants the prophets.
8 かくて我が前に天より聞きし聲のまた我に語りて『なんぢ往きて、海と地とに跨り立てる御使の手にある展きたる卷 物を取れ』と言ふを聞けり。
And the voice which I heard from heaven spake unto me again, and said, Go and take the little book which is open in the hand of the angel which standeth upon the sea and upon the earth.
9 われ御使のもとに往きて、小き卷 物を我に與へんことを請ひたれば、彼いふ『これを取りて食ひ盡せ、さらば汝の腹 苦くならん、然れど其の口には蜜のごとく甘からん』
And I went unto the angel, and said unto him, Give me the little book. And he said unto me, Take it, and eat it up; and it shall make thy belly bitter, but it shall be in thy mouth sweet as honey.
10 われ御使の手より小き卷 物をとりて食ひ盡したれば、口には蜜のごとく甘かりしが、食ひし後わが腹は苦くなれり。
And I took the little book out of the angel’s hand, and ate it up; and it was in my mouth sweet as honey: and as soon as I had eaten it, my belly was bitter.
11 また或 物われに言ふ『なんぢ再び多くの民・國・國語・王たちに就きて預言すべし』
And he said unto me, Thou must prophesy again before many peoples, and nations, and tongues, and kings.
