ヨハネの福音書 21
1 其後イエズス、又チベリアデの湖辺にて己を弟子等に現し給ひしが、其現し給ひし次第は次の如し。
After this, Jesus again showed Himself to the disciples. It was at the Lake of Tiberias. The circumstances were as follows.
2 シモン、ペトロとチヂモと呼ばるるトマと、ガリレアのカナ生れなるナタナエルと、ゼベデオの子等と、尚外に二人の弟子共に在りけるに、
Simon Peter was with Thomas, called the Twin, Nathanael of Cana in Galilee, the sons of Zabdi, and two others of the Master's disciples.
3 シモン、ペトロ、我漁に往く、と云ひしかば彼等、我等も共に往く、と云ひて、皆出行きて船に乗りしに、其夜は何をも獲ざりき。
Simon Peter said to them, "I am going fishing." "We will go too," said they. So they set out and went on board their boat; but they caught nothing that night.
4 然て天明に至りてイエズス濱に立ち給へり、然りながら弟子等は其イエズスなる事を認めざれば、
When, however, day was now dawning, Jesus stood on the beach, though the disciples did not know that it was Jesus.
5 イエズス彼等に向ひ、子等よ肴あるか、と曰ひしに彼等、無しと答へたり。
He called to them. "Children," He said, "have you any food there?" "No," they answered.
6 イエズス、網を船の右に下せ、然らば獲物あらん、と曰ひければ、彼等下したるに、魚夥しくして、網を引くこと能はざれば、
"Throw the net in on the right hand side," He said, "and you will find fish." So they threw the net in, and now they could scarcely drag it along for the quantity of fish.
7 イエズスの愛し給へる彼弟子ペトロに向ひて、主なり、と云ひしをシモン、ペトロ、主なりと聞くや、裸なりければ上衣を纏ひて湖に飛入り、
This made the disciple whom Jesus loved say to Peter, "It is the Master." Simon Peter therefore, when he heard the words, "It is the Master," drew on his fisherman's shirt--for he had not been wearing it--put on his girdle, and sprang into the water.
8 他の弟子等は魚の満てる網を引きつつ船にて來れり、陸を距る事遠からず、凡そ五十間許なりければなり。
But the rest of the disciples came in the small boat (for they were not far from land--only about a hundred yards off), dragging the net full of fish.
9 陸に上りて見れば既に炭火ありて、其上に一の魚の乗せられたるあり、又麪ありき。
As soon as they landed, they saw a charcoal fire burning there, with fish broiling on it, and bread close by.
10 イエズス彼等に向ひ、汝等が今獲りたる魚を持來れと曰ひしかば、
Jesus told them to fetch some of the fish which they had just caught.
11 シモン、ペトロ乗りて、大なる魚百五十三尾まで充満たる網を陸に引來りしが、斯くまで夥しかりしかど網は裂けざりき。
So Simon Peter went on board the boat and drew the net ashore full of large fish, 153 in number; and yet, although there were so many, the net had not broken.
12 イエズス彼等に、來りて食せよ、と曰ひしに、弟子等其主なることを知りて、汝は誰ぞと敢て問ふ者一人もなかりしが、
"Come this way and have breakfast," said Jesus. But not one of the disciples ventured to question Him as to who He was, for they felt sure that it was the Master.
13 イエズス近づき給ひ、麪を取りて彼等に與へ、魚も亦同じ様にし給へり。
Then Jesus came and took the bread and gave them some, and the fish in the same way.
14 イエズスが死者の中より復活して、其弟子等に現れ給ひしは是にて既に三度目なりき。
This was now the third occasion on which Jesus showed Himself to the disciples after He had risen from among the dead.
15 然て彼等食したるに、イエズスシモン、ペトロに曰ひけるは、ヨハネの[子]シモン、汝は此人々に優りて我を愛するか、と。彼、主よ、然り、我が汝を愛するは汝の知り給ふ所なり、と云ひしかばイエズス、我羔を牧せよ、と曰へり。
When they had finished breakfast, Jesus asked Simon Peter, "Simon, son of John, do you love me more than these others do?" "Yes, Master," was his answer; "you know that you are dear to me." "Then feed my lambs," replied Jesus.
16 又再び、ヨハネの[子]シモン、汝は我を愛するか、と曰ひしに、彼、主よ、然り、我が汝を愛するは汝の知り給ふ所なり、と云ひしかばイエズス我羔を牧せよ、と曰へり。
Again a second time He asked him, "Simon, son of John, do you love me?" "Yes, Master," he said, "you know that you are dear to me." "Then be a shepherd to my sheep," He said.
17 三度之に向ひて、ヨハネの[子]シモン、汝は我を愛するか、と曰ひしかば、ペトロは、我を愛するかと三度まで言はれたるを憂ひしが、主よ、萬事を知り給へり、我が汝を愛するは汝の知り給ふ所なり、と云ひしに、イエズス之に曰ひけるは、我羊を牧せよ。
A third time Jesus put the question: "Simon, son of John, am I dear to you?" It grieved Peter that Jesus asked him the third time, "Am I dear to you?" "Master," he replied, "you know everything, you can see that you are dear to me." "Then feed my much-loved sheep," said Jesus.
18 誠に實に汝に告ぐ、汝若かりし時、自ら帯して好む處を歩み居たりしが、老いたらん後は手を伸べん、而して他の者汝に帯して、其好まざる處に導かん、と。
"In most solemn truth I tell you that whereas, when you were young, you used to put on your girdle and walk whichever way you chose, when you have grown old you will stretch out your arms and some one else will put a girdle round you and carry you where you have no wish to go."
19 是ペトロが如何なる死を遂げて神に光榮あらしむべきかを示して曰ひしなり。然て之を曰ひ果てて、我に從へ、とペトロが曰ひしが、
This He said to indicate the kind of death by which that disciple would bring glory to God; and after speaking thus He said to him, "Follow me."
20 ペトロ回顧りてイエズスの愛し居給ひし彼弟子、即ち晩餐の時イエズスの御胸に横はりて、主よ汝を付す者は誰なるぞ、と云ひし弟子の從へるを見たり。
Peter turned round and noticed the disciple whom Jesus loved following--the one who at the supper had leaned back on His breast and had asked, "Master, who is it that is betraying you?"
21 ペトロ之を見てイエズスに向ひ、主よ、彼は如何に、と云ひしに、
On seeing him, Peter asked Jesus, "And, Master, what about him?"
22 イエズスペトロに曰ひけるは、我が來るまでに彼の留らん事を命ずとも、汝に於て何かあらん、汝は我に從へ、と。
"If I desire him to remain till I come," replied Jesus, "what concern is that of yours? You, yourself, must follow me."
23 然れば彼弟子死せずとの説兄弟等の中に傳はりしが、彼死せず、とイエズスのペトロに曰ひしには非ず、唯我が來るまで彼の留らん事を命ずとも、汝に於て何かあらん、と曰ひしのみ。
Hence the report spread among the brethren that that disciple would never die. Yet Jesus did not say, "He is not to die," but, "If I desire him to remain till I come, what concern is that of yours?"
24 此等の事に就きて證明し、此等の事を書きし人は、即ち彼弟子にして、我等は其證明の眞實なる事を知る。
That is the disciple who gives his testimony as to these matters, and has written this history; and we know that his testimony is true.
25 然れどイエズスの為し給ひし事尚此他にも夥しく、若之を一々書記さば、我思ふに書記すべき書籍は、世界すらも載盡すこと能はざるべし。
But there are also many other things which Jesus did--so vast a number indeed that if they were all described in detail, I suppose that the world itself could not contain the books that would have to be written.
