ヨハネの黙示録 21
1 我また新しき天と新しき地とを見たり。これ前の天と前の地とは過ぎ去り、海も亦なきなり。
And I saw a new heaven and a new earth: for the first heaven and the first earth were passed away; and there was no more sea.
2 我また聖なる都、新しきエルサレムの、夫のために飾りたる新婦のごとく準備して、神の許をいで、天より降るを見たり。
And I John saw the holy city, new Jerusalem, coming down from God out of heaven, prepared as a bride adorned for her husband.
3 また大なる聲の御座より出づるを聞けり。曰く『視よ、神の幕屋、人と偕にあり、神、人と偕に住み、人、神の民となり、神みづから人と偕に在して、
And I heard a great voice out of heaven saying, Behold, the tabernacle of God is with men, and he will dwell with them, and they shall be his people, and God himself shall be with them, and be their God.
4 かれらの目の涙をことごとく拭ひ去り給はん。今よりのち死もなく、悲歎も號叫も苦痛もなかるべし。前のもの既に過ぎ去りたればなり』
And God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes; and there shall be no more death, neither sorrow, nor crying, neither shall there be any more pain: for the former things are passed away.
5 かくて御座に坐し給ふもの言ひたまふ『視よ、われ一切のものを新にするなり』また言ひたまふ『書き記せ、これらの言は信ずべきなり、眞なり』
And he that sat on the throne said, Behold, I make all things new. And he said to me, Write: for these words are true and faithful.
6 また我に言ひたまふ『事すでに成れり、我はアルパなり、オメガなり、始なり、終なり、渇く者には價なくして生命の水の泉より飮むことを許さん。
And he said to me, It is done. I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end. I will give to him that is thirsty of the fountain of the water of life freely.
7 勝を得る者は此 等のものを嗣がん、我はその神となり、彼は我が子とならん。
He that overcomes shall inherit all things; and I will be his God, and he shall be my son.
9 最後の七つの苦難の滿ちたる七つの鉢を持てる七人の御使の一人きたり、我に語りて言ふ『來れ、われ羔羊の妻なる新婦を汝に見せん』
And there came to me one of the seven angels which had the seven vials full of the seven last plagues, and talked with me, saying, Come here, I will show you the bride, the Lamb’s wife.
10 御使、御靈に感じたる我を携へて大なる高き山にゆき、聖なる都エルサレムの、神の榮光をもて神の許を出でて天より降るを見せたり。
And he carried me away in the spirit to a great and high mountain, and showed me that great city, the holy Jerusalem, descending out of heaven from God,
11 その都の光輝はいと貴き玉のごとく、透徹る碧玉のごとし。
Having the glory of God: and her light was like to a stone most precious, even like a jasper stone, clear as crystal;
12 此處に大なる高き石垣ありて十二の門あり、門の側らに一人づつ十二の御使あり、門の上に一つづつイスラエルの子孫の十二の族の名を記せり。
And had a wall great and high, and had twelve gates, and at the gates twelve angels, and names written thereon, which are the names of the twelve tribes of the children of Israel:
13 東に三つの門、北に三つの門、南に三つの門、西に三つの門あり。
On the east three gates; on the north three gates; on the south three gates; and on the west three gates.
14 都の石垣には十二の基あり、これに羔羊の十二の使徒の十二の名を記せり。
And the wall of the city had twelve foundations, and in them the names of the twelve apostles of the Lamb.
15 我と語る者は都と門と石垣とを測らん爲に金の間竿を持てり。
And he that talked with me had a golden reed to measure the city, and the gates thereof, and the wall thereof.
16 都は方形にして、その長さ廣さ相 均し。彼は間竿にて都を測りしに一千 二百 町あり、長さ廣さ高さみな相 均し。
And the city lies foursquare, and the length is as large as the breadth: and he measured the city with the reed, twelve thousand furlongs. The length and the breadth and the height of it are equal.
17 また石垣を測りしに、人の度すなはち御使の度に據れば百 四十 四 尺あり。
And he measured the wall thereof, an hundred and forty and four cubits, according to the measure of a man, that is, of the angel.
18 石垣は碧玉にて築き、都は清らかなる玻璃のごとき純金にて造れり。
And the building of the wall of it was of jasper: and the city was pure gold, like to clear glass.
19 都の石垣の基はさまざまの寶石にて飾れり。第一の基は碧玉、第二は瑠璃、第三は玉髓、第四は緑玉、
And the foundations of the wall of the city were garnished with all manner of precious stones. The first foundation was jasper; the second, sapphire; the third, a chalcedony; the fourth, an emerald;
20 第五は紅縞 瑪瑙、第六は赤瑪瑙、第七は貴橄欖石、第八は緑柱石、第九は黄玉石、第十は緑玉髓、第十 一は青玉、第十二は紫 水晶なり。
The fifth, sardonyx; the sixth, sardius; the seventh, chrysolyte; the eighth, beryl; the ninth, a topaz; the tenth, a chrysoprasus; the eleventh, a jacinth; the twelfth, an amethyst.
21 十二の門は十二の眞珠なり、おのおのの門は一つの眞珠より成り、都の大路は透徹る玻璃のごとき純金なり。
And the twelve gates were twelve pearls: every several gate was of one pearl: and the street of the city was pure gold, as it were transparent glass.
22 われ都の内にて宮を見ざりき、主なる全能の神および羔羊はその宮なり。
And I saw no temple therein: for the Lord God Almighty and the Lamb are the temple of it.
23 都は日月の照すを要せず、神の榮光これを照し、羔羊はその燈火なり。
And the city had no need of the sun, neither of the moon, to shine in it: for the glory of God did lighten it, and the Lamb is the light thereof.
24 諸國の民は都の光のなかを歩み、地の王たちは己が光榮を此處にたづさへきたる。
And the nations of them which are saved shall walk in the light of it: and the kings of the earth do bring their glory and honor into it.
25 都の門は終日 閉ぢず（此處に夜あることなし）
And the gates of it shall not be shut at all by day: for there shall be no night there.
26 人々は諸國の民の光榮と尊貴とを此處にたづさえ來らん。
And they shall bring the glory and honor of the nations into it.
27 凡て穢れたる者また憎むべき事と虚僞とを行ふ者は、此處に入らず、羔羊の生命の書に記されたる者のみ此處に入るなり。
And there shall in no wise enter into it any thing that defiles, neither whatever works abomination, or makes a lie: but they which are written in the Lamb’s book of life.
