マタイの福音書 8
1 第三款 ガリレアに於る種々の奇蹟 イエズス山を下り給ひしに、群衆夥しく從ひしが、
And when he came down from the mount, great multitudes did follow him,
2 折しも、一人の癩病者來り、拝して云ひけるは、主よ、思召ならば我を潔くすることを得給ふ、と。
and lo, a leper having come, was bowing to him, saying, 'Sir, if thou art willing, thou art able to cleanse me;'
3 イエズス、手を伸べて彼に触れ、我意なり潔くなれ、と曰ひければ、其癩病直に潔くなれり。
and having stretched forth the hand, Jesus touched him, saying, 'I will, be thou cleansed,' and immediately his leprosy was cleansed.
4 イエズス之に曰ひけるは、慎みて人に語る勿れ、但往きて己を司祭に見せ、彼等への證據として、モイゼの命ぜし禮物を献げよ、と。
And Jesus saith to him, 'See, thou mayest tell no one, but go, thyself shew to the priest, and bring the gift that Moses commanded for a testimony to them.'
5 斯てイエズスカファルナウムに入り給ひしが、百夫長近づきて、
And Jesus having entered into Capernaum, there came to him a centurion calling upon him,
6 願ひて云ひけるは、主よ、我僕癱瘋にて家に臥し、甚く苦しめり、と。
and saying, 'Sir, my young man hath been laid in the house a paralytic, fearfully afflicted,'
7 イエズス、我往きて其を醫さん、と曰ひしかば、
and Jesus saith to him, 'I, having come, will heal him.'
8 百夫長答へて云ひけるは、主よ、我は不肖にして、主の我屋根の下に入り給ふに足らず、唯一言にて命じ給へ、然らば我僕痊えん。
And the centurion answering said, 'Sir, I am not worthy that thou mayest enter under my roof, but only say a word, and my servant shall be healed;
9 蓋我も人の権下に立つ者ながら、部下に兵卒ありて、此に往けと云へば往き、彼に來れ[と云へば]來り、又我僕に是を為せ[と云へば]為すなり、と。
for I also am a man under authority, having under myself soldiers, and I say to this one, Go, and he goeth, and to another, Be coming, and he cometh, and to my servant, Do this, and he doth [it].'
10 イエズス之を聞きて感嘆し、從へる者に曰ひけるは、我誠に汝等に告ぐ、イスラエルの中にても、斯程の信仰に遇ひし事なし。
And Jesus having heard, did wonder, and said to those following, 'Verily I say to you, not even in Israel so great faith have I found;
11 我汝等に告ぐ、多くの人東西より來りて、アブラハムイザアクヤコブと共に天國に坐せん、
and I say to you, that many from east and west shall come and recline (at meat) with Abraham, and Isaac, and Jacob, in the reign of the heavens,
12 然れど國の子等は外の暗に逐出されん、其處には痛哭と切歯とあらん、と。
but the sons of the reign shall be cast forth to the outer darkness — there shall be the weeping and the gnashing of the teeth.'
13 斯てイエズス百夫長に向ひ、往け、汝の信ぜし如く汝に成れ、と曰ひければ僕即時に痊えたり。
And Jesus said to the centurion, 'Go, and as thou didst believe let it be to thee;' and his young man was healed in that hour.
14 イエズスペトロの家に入り給ひて、彼が姑の熱を病みて臥せるを見、
And Jesus having come into the house of Peter, saw his mother-in-law laid, and fevered,
15 其手に触れ給ひしかば、熱其身を去り、起きて彼等に給仕したり。
and he touched her hand, and the fever left her, and she arose, and was ministering to them.
16 日暮れて後、人々惡魔に憑かれたる者を多く差出ししが、イエズス惡魔を一言にて逐払い、病者をも悉く醫し給へり。
And evening having come, they brought to him many demoniacs, and he did cast out the spirits with a word, and did heal all who were ill,
17 是預言者イザヤによりて云はれし事の成就せん為なり、曰く「彼は我等の患を受け、我等の病を負ひ給へり」と。
that it might be fulfilled that was spoken through Isaiah the prophet, saying, 'Himself took our infirmities, and the sicknesses he did bear.'
18 イエズス周圍に群衆の夥しきを見て、湖の彼方へ往かん事を命じ給ひしかば、
And Jesus having seen great multitudes about him, did command to depart to the other side;
19 一人の律法學士近づきて、師よ、何處へ往き給ふとも我は從はん、と云ひしに、
and a certain scribe having come, said to him, 'Teacher, I will follow thee wherever thou mayest go;'
20 イエズス是に曰ひけるは、狐は穴あり空の鳥は巣あり、然れど人の子は枕する處なし、と。
and Jesus saith to him, 'The foxes have holes, and the birds of the heaven places of rest, but the Son of Man hath not where he may lay the head.'
21 又弟子の一人、主よ、我が先往きて父を葬る事を允し給へ、と云ひしに、
And another of his disciples said to him, 'Sir, permit me first to depart and to bury my father;'
22 イエズス曰ひけるは、我に從へ、死人をして其死人を葬らしめよ、と。
and Jesus said to him, 'Follow me, and suffer the dead to bury their own dead.'
23 イエズス小舟に乗り給ひ、弟子等之に從ひしが、
And when he entered into the boat his disciples did follow him,
24 折しも湖に大なる暴嵐起りて、小舟涛に蔽はるる程なるに、イエズスは眠り居給へり。
and lo, a great tempest arose in the sea, so that the boat was being covered by the waves, but he was sleeping,
25 弟子等近づきて之を起し、主よ、我等を救ひ給へ、我等亡ぶ、と云ひければ、
and his disciples having come to him, awoke him, saying, 'Sir, save us; we are perishing.'
26 イエズス彼等に曰ひけるは、何ぞ怖るるや、信仰薄き者よ、と。即起て風と湖とを戒め給ひしに、大凪となれり。
And he saith to them, 'Why are ye fearful, O ye of little faith?' Then having risen, he rebuked the winds and the sea, and there was a great calm;
27 斯て人々感嘆して、是は何人ぞや、風も湖も是に從ふよ、と云へり。
and the men wondered, saying, 'What kind — is this, that even the wind and the sea do obey him?'
28 イエズス湖の彼方なるゲラサ人の地に至り給ひしに、惡魔に憑かれたる者二人、墓より出でて迎へ來れり。豫てより其猛き事甚しく、誰も其途を過ぎ得ざる程なりしが、
And he having come to the other side, to the region of the Gergesenes, there met him two demoniacs, coming forth out of the tombs, very fierce, so that no one was able to pass over by that way,
29 忽叫びて云ひけるは、神の御子イエズスよ、我等と汝と何の関係かあらん、期未至らざるに、我等を苦しめんとて此處に來り給へるか、と。
and lo, they cried out, saying, 'What — to us and to thee, Jesus, Son of God? didst thou come hither, before the time, to afflict us?'
30 然るに彼等を距る事遠からぬ處に、多くの豚の群物喰ひ居ければ、
And there was far off from them a herd of many swine feeding,
31 惡魔等イエズスに願ひて云ひけるは、若我等を此處より逐払い給はば、豚の群の中に遣り給へ、と。
and the demons were calling on him, saying, 'If thou dost cast us forth, permit us to go away to the herd of the swine;'
32 イエズス彼等に、往け、と曰ひしかば、彼等出でて豚に憑き、見る見る群皆遽しく、崖より湖に飛入りて水に死せり。
and he saith to them, 'Go.' And having come forth, they went to the herd of the swine, and lo, the whole herd of the swine rushed down the steep, to the sea, and died in the waters,
33 牧者等逃げて町に至り、一切の事と惡魔に憑かれたりし人々の事とを吹聴せしかば、
and those feeding did flee, and, having gone to the city, they declared all, and the matter of the demoniacs.
34 直に町挙りてイエズスを出迎へ、是を見るや其境を過ぎ給はん事を乞へり。
And lo, all the city came forth to meet Jesus, and having seen him, they called on [him] that he might depart from their borders.
