ヨハネの福音書 4
1 第三款 イエズスサマリアを過り給ふ 時にイエズス、己が弟子を造り人を洗する事、ヨハネよりも多き由の、ファリザイ人の耳に入りしを知り給ひしかば、
Now when Jesus knew that the Pharisees had heard, “Jesus is making and baptizing more disciples than John”
2 ――但洗せるはイエズスに非ずして、其の弟子等なりき――
(although Jesus Himself was not baptizing, but His disciples),
3 ユデアを去りて再びガリレアに往き給へり。
He left Judea and went away into Galilee.
4 然るにサマリアを通らざるを得ざりしければ、
Now He needed to go through Samaria;
5 ヤコブが其子ヨゼフに與へし土地に近き、サマリアのシカルと云へる町に至り給ひしが、
so He comes to a city of Samaria called Sychar, near the plot of land that Jacob gave to his son Joseph.
6 此處にヤコブの井ありけるに、イエズス旅に疲れて、其儘井の上に坐し給へり、時は十二時頃なりき。
Now Jacob's well was there; so Jesus, being worn out from the journey, sat as He was by the well. It was about 6 p.m.
7 爰にサマリアの一人の婦、水汲みに來りしかば、イエズス之に向ひて、我に飲ませよ、と曰へり。
A woman of Samaria comes to draw water. Jesus says to her, “Give me a drink.”
8 是弟子等は食物を買はんとて町に往きたればなり。
(His disciples had gone into the town to buy food.)
9 其時サマリアの婦云ひけるは、汝はユデア人なるに、何ぞサマリアの婦なる我に飲物を求むるや、と。是ユデア人はサマリア人と交らざる故なり。
So the Samaritan woman says to Him, “How can you, being a Jew, ask a drink from me, being a Samaritan woman?” (for Jews do not associate with Samaritans).
10 イエズス答へて曰ひけるは、汝若神の賜を知り、又我に飲ませよと汝に云へる者の誰なるかを知らば、必ず彼に求め、彼は活ける水を汝に與へしならん。
Jesus answered and said to her: “If you knew the gift of God, and who is the one saying to you, ‘Give me a drink,’ you would have asked him and he would have given you living water.”
11 婦云ひけるは、君よ、汝は汲む物を有たず、井は深し、然るを何處よりして活ける水を有てるぞ。
The woman says to Him: “Sir, you don't even have a bucket, and the well is deep; so where do you get this living water?
12 我等が父ヤコブ此井を我等に與へ、自らも其子等も其家畜も之より飲みしが、汝は彼より優れる者なるか。
You aren't greater than our father Jacob, are you? He gave us the well and drank from it himself, as did his sons and his livestock.”
13 イエズス答へて曰ひけるは、総て此水を飲む者は復渇くべし、
Jesus answered and said to her: “Everyone who drinks of this water will thirst again,
15 婦云ひけるは、君よ、我が渇く事なく此處に汲みにも來らざる様、其水を我に與へよ。
The woman says to Him, “Sir, give me this water! so that I may not thirst, nor come here to draw.”
16 イエズス曰ひけるは、往きて夫を呼來れ。
Jesus says to her, “Go, call your husband and come back here.”
17 婦答へて、我は夫なし、と云ひしかば、イエズス曰ひけるは、善くこそ夫なしと云ひたれ、
The woman answered and said, “I don't have a husband.” Jesus says to her: “You stated correctly that you do not have a husband,
18 夫は五人まで有ちたりしに、今あるは汝の夫に非ず、汝が然云ひしは實なり。
because you have had five husbands, and the one you have now is no husband of yours. You spoke the truth there!”
19 婦云ひけるは、君よ、我観るに、汝は預言者なり。
The woman says to Him: “Sir, I perceive that you are a prophet.
20 我等が先祖は此山にて禮拝したるに、汝等は云ふ、禮拝すべき處はエルザレムなりと。
Our fathers worshiped on this mountain, while you (pl) say that the place where one must worship is in Jerusalem.”
21 イエズス曰ひけるは、婦よ、我を信ぜよ、汝等が此山となくエルザレムとなく、父を禮拝せん時來るなり。
Jesus says to her: “Woman, believe me, a time is coming when neither on this mountain nor in Jerusalem will you worship the Father.
22 汝等は知らざる者を禮拝し、我等は知りたる者を禮拝す、救はユデア人の中より出づればなり。
You [Samaritans] worship what you do not know; we [Jews] worship what we do know, because the salvation is from the Jews.
23 然て眞の禮拝者が、霊と實とを以て父を禮拝すべき時來る、今既に其時なり。其は父も、斯く己を禮拝する人を求め給へばなり。
But the time is coming, in fact now is, when the genuine worshipers will worship the Father in spirit and truth. Really, because the Father is looking for such people to worship Him.
24 神は霊にて在せば、之を禮拝する人は、霊と實とを以て禮拝せざるべからず、と。
God is Spirit, and those who worship Him must worship in spirit and truth.”
25 婦イエズスに謂ひけるは、我はメッシア（所謂キリスト）の來るを知る。然れば彼來らば萬事を我等に告ぐべし。
The woman says to Him: “I know that Messiah is coming (who is called Christ). When He comes He will explain everything to us.”
26 イエズス之に曰ひけるは、汝と語りつつある我、即ち其なり、と。
Jesus says to her, “I am He, the one who is talking with you!”
27 軈て弟子等來り、イエズスの婦と語り給へるを怪しみしかど、誰も何をか求め何故彼と語り給ふ、と云ふ者なかりき。
At that point His disciples arrived, and they were amazed that He was talking with a woman; yet no one said, “What do you want?” or “Why are You talking with her?”
28 斯て婦、其水瓶を遺して町に往き、其處なる人々に向ひ、
So the woman left her water jar, went her way into the town, and says to the men:
29 來て見よ、我が為しし事を殘らず我に云ひたる人を、是はキリストならんか、と云ひしかば、
“Come see a man who told me everything I ever did! Could this be the Messiah?”
30 彼等町より出でてイエズスの許に來れり。
So out they went from the town and started toward Him.
31 其隙に弟子等イエズスに請ひて、ラビ食し給へ、と云ひしに、
Now in the meantime the disciples were urging Him saying, “Rabbi, eat.”
32 曰ひけるは、我には汝等の知らざる食物の食すべきあり、と。
But He said to them, “I have food to eat that you do not know about.”
33 弟子等、誰か食物を持來りしぞ、と云ひ合へるを、
So the disciples started saying to one another, “Could someone have brought Him something to eat?”
34 イエズス曰ひけるは、我が食物は、我を遣はし給ひし者の御旨を行ひて其業を全うする事是なり。
Jesus says to them: “My food is to do the will of Him who sent me and to complete His work.
35 汝等は、尚四箇月の間あり、其後収穫の時來る、と云ふに非ずや。我汝等に告ぐ、目を翹げて田畑を見よ、最早穫取るべく白みたり。
Do you not say, ‘There are four months before the harvest comes?’ Well I say, Look! Lift your eyes and observe the fields; they are white for harvest already!
Now he who reaps receives pay and gathers fruit into eternal life, so that both he who sows and he who reaps may rejoice together. (aiōnios g166)
37 諺に一人は撒き一人は穫ると云へる事、是に於て乎實なり。
Now the saying, ‘One is the sower and another the reaper,’ is true in this:
38 我汝等を遣はして、勞作せざりし物を穫らしめたり。即ち他の人前に勞作して、其勞作したる所を、汝等が承継ぎたるなり、と。
I sent you to reap that for which you have not labored; others have labored and you have entered into their labors.”
39 然て彼町にては、彼人我が為しし事を殘らず我に告げたり、と證したる婦の言によりて、多くのサマリア人イエズスを信ぜしかば、
Now many of the Samaritans from that city believed into Him because of the word of the woman, testifying that “He told me everything I ever did!”
40 人々御許に來りて、此處に留り給はんことを請へり、然れば此處に留り給ふ事二日にして、
So when the Samaritans came to Him they urged Him to stay with them; and He did stay there two days.
41 尚多くの人御言によりて之を信仰せり。
Many more believed through His own word,
42 斯て彼婦に向ひ、我等は最早汝の語る所によりて信ずる者に非ず、即ち自ら彼に聴きて、其眞に救世主たる事を知れり、と云ひ居たり。
and they kept saying to the woman, “It is not just because of what you said that we believe, because we ourselves have heard Him, and we know that this One is truly the Messiah, the Savior of the world!”
43 第四款 イエズスガリレアに至り給ふ 然るに二日の後、イエズス其處を出でてガリレアに往き給へり。
So after the two days He departed from there and went on into Galilee.
44 預言者其本國に尊ばれず、と自ら證し給ひしが、
(For Jesus Himself testified that a prophet does not have honor in his own country.)
45 ガリレアに至り給ひしに、ガリレア人は、曾て祭日にエルザレムにて行ひ給ひし一切の事を見たりければ、イエズスを歓迎せり、其は彼等も祭日に往きてありしなり。
So when He came into Galilee the Galileans welcomed Him, having seen all the things that He did in Jerusalem, at the festival; for they too had gone to the festival.
46 斯てイエズス再び、嚮に水を酒に化し給ひしガリレアのカナに至り給ひしに、一人の王官あり、其子カファルナウムにて病み居ければ、
So Jesus went again to Cana of Galilee, where He made the water wine. Now there was a certain royal official whose son was sick in Capernaum.
47 イエズスユデアよりガリレアに來給ふと聞きて、御許に至り、下りて己が子を醫し給はん事を切に願ひ居たり、彼将に死なんとすればなり。
When this man heard that Jesus had come out of Judea into Galilee, he went to Him and implored Him to come down and heal his son, for he was about to die.
48 イエズス之に曰ひけるは、汝等は徴と奇蹟とを見ざれば信ぜず、と。
So Jesus said to him, “Unless you people see signs and wonders you will not believe!”
49 官人イエズスに向ひて、主よ、我子の死なざる前に下り來給へ、と云ひしに、
The official says to Him, “Sir, come down before my child dies!”
50 イエズス、往け、汝の子活く、と曰ひしかば、此人イエズスの己に曰ひし御言を信じて往きたり。
Jesus says to him, “Go; your son lives.” Well the man believed the word that Jesus spoke to him and off he went.
51 然て下る途に、僕等行逢ひて、其子の活きたる由を告げければ、
Now while he was still going down his slaves met him and reported saying, “Your son lives!”
52 其回復せし時刻を問ひしに、彼等、昨日の午後一時に熱去れり、と云ふにぞ、
So he inquired of them the hour in which he got better. And they said to him, “Yesterday at the seventh hour the fever left him.”
53 父は恰もイエズスが汝の子活くと己に曰ひしと同時なりしを知り、其身も一家も挙りて信仰せり。
So the father knew that it was at the exact hour in which Jesus told him, “Your son lives.” Both he himself and his whole household believed.
54 此第二の奇蹟は、イエズスユデアよりガリレアに至り給ひし時に行ひ給ひしなり。
Again, coming out of Judea into Galilee, Jesus performed this second miraculous sign.
