< ヘブル人への手紙 1 >

1 第一款 キリストは大いに天使等に優り給ふ 神は昔預言者等を以て、幾度にも幾様にも先祖等に語り給ひしに、
In manifold portions and in all manners, spake Aloha with our fathers by the prophets from the first: but in these last days he hath spoken with us by his Son;
2 此末の日に至り、曾て萬物の世嗣に立て、又之によりて世を造り給ひたる御子を以て、我等に語り給へり。 (aiōn g165)
whom he constituted the heir of every thing, and by whom he made the worlds; (aiōn g165)
3 彼は神の光榮の輝、其本體の印章に在して、己が権能の言を以て、萬物を保ち、罪の潔を為し給ひて、天に於て稜威の右に坐し給ふなり。
who himself is the resplendence of his glory, and the image of his Being, and upholdeth all (things) by the power of his word; and he, in his (own) person, hath made purification of sins, and hath sat down at the right hand of the Majesty on high.
4 彼が天使等に優る者と成り給へるは、猶其受け給ひし御名の彼等に優れるが如し。
And this (person) is altogether more excellent than the angels, by so much as the name he hath inherited (is) more excellent than theirs.
5 蓋神曾て天使等の敦れに斯は曰ひしぞ、[曰く]、「汝は我子なり、我今日汝を生めり」と、又「我彼に父たり彼我に子たらん」と。
For unto which one from (among) the angels at any time said Aloha, Thou art MY SON; I to-day have begotten thee? And again, I will be to him the Father, and he shall be to me the Son?
6 又冢子を更に世に入れ給ひし時に曰く、「神の天使皆之を禮拝すべし」、と。
But again, when bringing in the First-begotten into the world, he said, Let all the angels of Aloha worship him.
7 而して天使等に就きては、「彼風を其使者と為し、焔を其の役者となし給ふ」と言へるに、
But concerning the angels, thus hath he spoken: Who hath made his angels spirit, and his ministers a flaming fire.
8 御子に就きては、「神よ、汝の玉座は世々に在り、汝の王位の笏は義の笏なり、 (aiōn g165)
But concerning the Son he hath said, Thy throne, Aloha, (is) for ever and ever, a right sceptre (is) the sceptre of thy kingdom. (aiōn g165)
9 汝正義を愛し不義を憎めり、故に汝の神たる神は、喜の油を汝が同輩に優りて汝に注ぎ給へり、」と言ふ。
Thou hast loved righteousness, and hast hated iniquity; therefore Aloha thy God hath anointed thee with the oil of exultation more (abundantly) than thy fellows.
10 又曰く、「主よ、汝初に地を据置き給へり、而して諸の天も御手の業なり、
And again, Thou in the beginning hast laid the foundations of the earth, and the heavens are the work of thy hands.
11 是等は亡びん、然れど汝は永存し給ひ、是等は皆衣服の如く古びん。
They pass away, but thou art enduring; and all they as vestments shall become old,
12 汝之を上衣の如く畳み給はんに、是等は變るべしと雖も、汝は同じきものにして變る事なく、汝の齢終なかるべし」と。
and as a garment thou shalt fold them up, they shall be changed; but thou (shalt be) as Thou Art, and thy years shall not fail
13 然るに曾て天使等の敦れに向ひてか、「我汝の敵を汝の足台と成らしむるまで我右に坐せよ」、と曰ひし事ある、
But to which from (among) the angels hath he said at any time, Sit at my right hand, until I put thine adversaries a footstool beneath thy feet?
14 天使は悉く役者と成る霊にして、救霊の世嗣を受くべき人々の為に役者として遣はさるるに非ずや。
Are not all they spirits of ministration, who (are) sent forth in service on behalf of those who are hereafter to inherit salvation?
