ヨハネの黙示録 11
1 ここにわれ杖のごとき間竿を與へられたり、かくて或 者いふ『立ちて神の聖所と香壇と其處に拜する者どもとを度れ、
And there was given unto me a reed, like unto a staff, saying—Rise, and measure the Sanctuary of God, and the altar, and them who are doing homage therein;
2 聖所の外の庭は差措きて度るな、これは異邦人に委ねられたり、彼らは四十 二个月のあひだ聖なる都を蹂躙らん。
and, the court that is outside the Sanctuary, cast thou outside, and do not measure, it, because it hath been given unto the nations, and, the holy city, shall they tread under foot, forty and two months.
3 我わが二人の證人に權を與へん、彼らは荒布を著て千二百 六十日のあひだ預言すべし。
And I will give unto my two witnesses, that they shall prophesy, a thousand two hundred and sixty days, arrayed in sackcloth.
4 彼らは地の主の御前に立てる二つのオリブの樹、二つの燈臺なり。
These, are the two olive-trees, and the two lamps, which, before the Lord of the earth, do stand.
5 もし彼らを害はんとする者あらば、火その口より出でてその敵を焚き盡さん。もし彼らを害はんとする者あらば、必ず斯くのごとく殺さるべし。
And, if any one, upon them, chooseth to inflict injury, fire, cometh forth out of their mouth, and devoureth their enemies; and, if anyone shall choose, upon them, to inflict injury, thus, must he be slain.
6 彼らは預言するあひだ雨を降らせぬやうに天を閉づる權力あり、また水を血に變らせ、思ふままに幾度にても諸種の苦難をもて地を撃つ權力あり。
These, have authority to shut heaven, in order that, no rain, be moistening in the days of their prophesying; and, authority, have they, over the waters, to be turning them into blood, and to smite the land, with any manner of plague, as often as they will.
And, as soon as they have completed their witnessing, the wild-beast that is to come up out of the abyss, will make war with them, and overcome them, and slay them. (Abyssos g12)
8 その屍體は大なる都の衢に遺らん。この都を譬へてソドムと云ひ、エジプトの云ふ、即ち彼らの主もまた十字架に釘けられ給ひし所なり。
And their dead bodies [lie] upon the broadway of the great city, the which is called, spiritually, Sodom and Egypt, where, their Lord also was crucified.
9 もろもろの民・族・國語・國のもの、三日半の間その屍體を見、かつ其の屍體を墓に葬ることを許さざるべし。
And [some] of the peoples, and tribes, and tongues, and nations, see, their dead bodies three days and a half, and, their dead bodies, do they not suffer to be put into a tomb.
10 地に住む者どもは彼らに就きて喜び樂しみ互に禮物を贈らん、此の二人の預言者は地に住む者を苦しめたればなり』
And, they who are dwelling upon the earth, rejoice over them, and make merry, and, gifts, will they send one to another, —because, these two prophets, tormented them that were dwelling upon the earth.
11 三日半ののち生命の息、神より出でて彼らに入り、かれら足にて起ちたれば、之を見るもの大に懼れたり。
And, after [the] three days and a half, a spirit of life from God, entered within them, and they stood upon their feet; and, great fear, fell upon them who were beholding them.
12 天より大なる聲して『ここに昇れ』と言ふを彼ら聞きたれば、雲に乘りて天に昇れり、その敵も之を見たり、
And they heard a loud voice out of heaven, saying unto them—Come up hither! And they went up into heaven, in the cloud, and, their enemies, beheld them.
13 このとき大なる地震ありて、都の十分の一は倒れ、地震のために死にしもの七 千 人にして、遺れる者は懼をいだき天の神に榮光を歸したり。
And, in that hour, there came to be a great earthquake; and, the tenth of the city, fell, and there were slain, in the earthquake, names of men—seven thousand. And, the rest, became, greatly afraid, and gave glory unto the God of heaven.
14 第二の禍害すぎ去れり、視よ、第三の禍害すみやかに來るなり。
The second Woe, hath passed away, —lo! the third Woe, cometh speedily.
And, the seventh messenger, sounded; and there came to be loud voices in heaven, saying—The kingdom of the world, hath become [the kingdom] of our Lord and of his Christ, and he shall reign unto the ages of ages. (aiōn g165)
16 かくて神の前にて座位に坐する二十四人の長老ひれふし神を拜して言ふ、
And, the twenty-four elders who, before God, do sit upon their thrones, fell down upon their faces, and rendered homage unto God,
17 『今いまし、昔います主たる全能の神よ、なんぢの大なる能力を執りて王と成り給ひしことを感謝す。
saying—We give thanks unto thee, O Lord God, the Almighty, Who is, and Who was; because thou hast taken thy great power, and hast become king.
18 諸國の民 怒をいだけり、なんぢの怒も亦いたれり、死にたる者を審き、なんぢの僕なる預言者および聖徒、また小なるも大なるも汝の名を畏るる者に報賞をあたへ、地を亡す者を亡したまふ時いたれり』
And, the nations, were angered; and thine anger, came, and the fit time of the dead, to be vindicated, and to give their reward unto thy servants the prophets, and unto the saints, and unto them who revere thy name—the small and the great, and to despoil them who were despoiling the earth.
19 斯くて天にある神の聖所ひらけ、聖所のうちに契約の櫃 見え、數多の電光と聲と雷霆と、また地震と大なる雹とありき。
And the sanctuary of God which is in heaven, was opened, and the ark of his covenant in his sanctuary, appeared, and there came to be lightnings, and voices, and thunderings, and an earthquake, and great hail.
