ヨハネの黙示録 14
1 われ見しに、視よ、羔羊シオンの山に立ちたまふ。十四萬 四千の人これと偕に居り、その額には羔羊の名および羔羊の父の名 記しあり。
I saw, and behold, the Lamb standing on Mount Zion, and with him a number, one hundred forty-four thousand, having his name and the name of his Father written on their foreheads.
2 われ天よりの聲を聞けり、多くの水の音のごとく、大なる雷霆の聲のごとし。わが聞きし此の聲は彈琴者の立琴を彈く音のごとし。
I heard a sound from heaven like the sound of many waters and like the sound of a great thunder. The sound which I heard was like that of harpists playing on their harps.
3 かれら新しき歌を御座の前および四つの活物と長老たちとの前にて歌ふ。この歌は地より贖はれたる十四萬 四千 人の他は誰も學びうる者なかりき。
They sing a new song before the throne and before the four living creatures and the elders. No one could learn the song except the one hundred forty-four thousand, those who had been redeemed out of the earth.
4 彼らは女に汚されぬ者なり、潔き者なり、何處にまれ羔羊の往き給ふところに隨ふ。彼らは人の中より贖はれて神と羔羊とのために初穗となれり。
These are those who were not defiled with women, for they are virgins. These are those who follow the Lamb wherever he goes. These were redeemed by Jesus from among men, the first fruits to God and to the Lamb.
5 その口に虚僞なし、彼らは瑕なき者なり。
In their mouth was found no lie, for they are blameless.
I saw an angel flying in mid heaven, having an eternal Good News to proclaim to those who dwell on the earth—to every nation, tribe, language, and people. (aiōnios g166)
7 大聲にて言ふ『なんぢら神を畏れ、神に榮光を歸せよ。その審判のとき既に至りたればなり。汝ら天と地と海と水の源泉とを造り給ひし者を拜せよ』
He said with a loud voice, “Fear the Lord, and give him glory, for the hour of his judgment has come. Worship him who made the heaven, the earth, the sea, and the springs of waters!”
8 ほかの第二の御使、かれに從ひて言ふ『倒れたり、倒れたり。大なるバビロン、己が淫行より出づる憤恚の葡萄酒をもろもろの國人に飮ませし者』
Another, a second angel, followed, saying, “Babylon the great has fallen, which has made all the nations to drink of the wine of the wrath of her sexual immorality.”
9 ほかの第三の御使、かれらに從ひ大聲にて言ふ『もし獸とその像とを拜し、且その額あるいは手に徽章を受くる者あらば、
Another angel, a third, followed them, saying with a great voice, “If anyone worships the beast and his image, and receives a mark on his forehead or on his hand,
10 必ず神の怒の酒杯に盛りたる混りなき憤恚の葡萄酒を飮み、かつ聖なる御使たち及び羔羊の前にて、火と硫黄とにて苦しめらるべし。
he also will drink of the wine of the wrath of God, which is prepared unmixed in the cup of his anger. He will be tormented with fire and sulfur in the presence of the holy angels and in the presence of the Lamb.
The smoke of their torment goes up forever and ever. They have no rest day and night, those who worship the beast and his image, and whoever receives the mark of his name. (aiōn g165)
12 神の誡命とイエスを信ずる信仰とを守る聖徒の忍耐は茲にあり』
Here is the perseverance of the saints, those who keep the commandments of God and the faith of Jesus.”
13 我また天より聲ありて『書き記せ「今よりのち主にありて死ぬる死人は幸福なり」御靈も言ひたまふ「然り、彼 等はその勞役を止めて息まん。その業これに隨ふなり」』と言ふを聞けり。
I heard a voice from heaven saying, “Write, ‘Blessed are the dead who die in the Lord from now on.’” “Yes,” says the Spirit, “that they may rest from their labors, for their works follow with them.”
14 また見しに、視よ、白き雲あり、その雲の上に人の子の如きもの坐して、首には金の冠冕をいただき、手には利き鎌を持ちたまふ。
I looked, and saw a white cloud, and on the cloud one sitting like a son of man, having on his head a golden crown, and in his hand a sharp sickle.
15 又ほかの御使、聖所より出で、雲のうへに坐したまふ者にむかひ、大聲に呼はりて『なんぢの鎌を入れて刈れ、地の穀物は全く熟し、既に刈り取るべき時 至ればなり』と言ふ。
Another angel came out of the temple, crying with a loud voice to him who sat on the cloud, “Send your sickle and reap, for the hour to reap has come; for the harvest of the earth is ripe!”
16 かくて雲の上に坐したまふ者その鎌を地に入れたれば、地の穀物は刈り取られたり。
He who sat on the cloud thrust his sickle on the earth, and the earth was reaped.
17 又ほかの御使、天の聖所より出で、同じく利き鎌を持てり。
Another angel came out of the temple which is in heaven. He also had a sharp sickle.
18 又ほかの火を掌どる御使、祭壇より出で、利き鎌を持つ者にむかひ大聲に呼はりて『なんぢの利き鎌を入れて地の葡萄の樹の房を刈り收めよ、葡萄は既に熟したり』と言ふ。
Another angel came out from the altar, he who has power over fire, and he called with a great voice to him who had the sharp sickle, saying, “Send your sharp sickle and gather the clusters of the vine of the earth, for the earth’s grapes are fully ripe!”
19 御使その鎌を地に入れて地の葡萄を刈りをさめ、神の憤恚の大なる酒槽に投げ入れたり。
The angel thrust his sickle into the earth, and gathered the vintage of the earth and threw it into the great wine press of the wrath of God.
20 かくて都の外にて酒槽を踐みしに、血 酒槽より流れ出でて馬の轡に達くほどになり、一 千 六 百 町に廣がれり。
The wine press was trodden outside of the city, and blood came out of the wine press, up to the bridles of the horses, as far as one thousand six hundred stadia.
