マルコの福音書 6
1 イエスはそこを去って、郷里に行かれたが、弟子たちも従って行った。
And he went out from thence, and came into his own country; and his disciples follow him.
2 そして、安息日になったので、会堂で教えはじめられた。それを聞いた多くの人々は、驚いて言った、「この人は、これらのことをどこで習ってきたのか。また、この人の授かった知恵はどうだろう。このような力あるわざがその手で行われているのは、どうしてか。
And when the sabbath day was come, he began to teach in the synagogue: and many hearing him were astonished, saying, From whence has this man these things? and what wisdom is this which is given unto him, that even such mighty works are wrought by his hands?
3 この人は大工ではないか。マリヤのむすこで、ヤコブ、ヨセ、ユダ、シモンの兄弟ではないか。またその姉妹たちも、ここにわたしたちと一緒にいるではないか」。こうして彼らはイエスにつまずいた。
Is not this the carpenter, the son of Mary, the brother of James, and Joses, and of Juda, and Simon? and are not his sisters here with us? And they were offended at him.
4 イエスは言われた、「預言者は、自分の郷里、親族、家以外では、どこででも敬われないことはない」。
But Jesus, said unto them, A prophet is not without honour, but in his own country, and among his own kin, and in his own house.
5 そして、そこでは力あるわざを一つもすることができず、ただ少数の病人に手をおいていやされただけであった。
And he could there do no mighty work, save that he laid his hands upon a few sick folk, and healed them.
6 そして、彼らの不信仰を驚き怪しまれた。それからイエスは、附近の村々を巡りあるいて教えられた。
And he marvelled because of their unbelief. And he went round about the villages, teaching.
7 また十二弟子を呼び寄せ、ふたりずつつかわすことにして、彼らにけがれた霊を制する権威を与え、
And he called unto him the twelve, and began to send them forth by two and two; and gave them power over unclean spirits; (pneuma)
8 また旅のために、つえ一本のほかには何も持たないように、パンも、袋も、帯の中に銭も持たず、
And commanded them that they should take nothing for their journey, save a staff only; no pouch, no bread, no money in their purse:
9 ただわらじをはくだけで、下着も二枚は着ないように命じられた。
But be shod with sandals; and not put on two coats.
10 そして彼らに言われた、「どこへ行っても、家にはいったなら、その土地を去るまでは、そこにとどまっていなさい。
And he said unto them, In what place whatsoever all of you enter into an house, there abide till all of you depart from that place.
11 また、あなたがたを迎えず、あなたがたの話を聞きもしない所があったなら、そこから出て行くとき、彼らに対する抗議のしるしに、足の裏のちりを払い落しなさい」。
And whosoever shall not receive you, nor hear you, when all of you depart thence, shake off the dust under your feet for a testimony against them. Verily I say unto you, It shall be more tolerable for Sodom and Gomorrha in the day of judgment, than for that city.
12 そこで、彼らは出て行って、悔改めを宣べ伝え、
And they went out, and preached that men should repent.
13 多くの悪霊を追い出し、大ぜいの病人に油をぬっていやした。
And they cast out many devils, and anointed with oil many that were sick, and healed them.
14 さて、イエスの名が知れわたって、ヘロデ王の耳にはいった。ある人々は「バプテスマのヨハネが、死人の中からよみがえってきたのだ。それで、あのような力が彼のうちに働いているのだ」と言い、
And king Herod heard of him; (for his name was spread abroad: ) and he said, That John the Baptist was risen from the dead, and therefore mighty works do show forth themselves in him.
15 他の人々は「彼はエリヤだ」と言い、また他の人々は「昔の預言者のような預言者だ」と言った。
Others said, That it is Elijah. And others said, That it is a prophet, or as one of the prophets.
16 ところが、ヘロデはこれを聞いて、「わたしが首を切ったあのヨハネがよみがえったのだ」と言った。
But when Herod heard thereof, he said, It is John, whom I beheaded: he has risen from the dead.
17 このヘロデは、自分の兄弟ピリポの妻ヘロデヤをめとったが、そのことで、人をつかわし、ヨハネを捕えて獄につないだ。
For Herod himself had sent forth and laid hold upon John, and bound him in prison for Herodias' sake, his brother Philip's wife: for he had married her.
18 それは、ヨハネがヘロデに、「兄弟の妻をめとるのは、よろしくない」と言ったからである。
For John had said unto Herod, It is not lawful for you to have your brother's wife.
19 そこで、ヘロデヤはヨハネを恨み、彼を殺そうと思っていたが、できないでいた。
Therefore Herodias had a quarrel against him, and would have killed him; but she could not:
20 それはヘロデが、ヨハネは正しくて聖なる人であることを知って、彼を恐れ、彼に保護を加え、またその教を聞いて非常に悩みながらも、なお喜んで聞いていたからである。
For Herod feared John, knowing that he was a just man and an holy, and observed him; and when he heard him, he did many things, and heard him gladly.
21 ところが、よい機会がきた。ヘロデは自分の誕生日の祝に、高官や将校やガリラヤの重立った人たちを招いて宴会を催したが、
And when a convenient day was come, that Herod on his birthday made a supper to his lords, high captains, and chief estates of Galilee;
22 そこへ、このヘロデヤの娘がはいってきて舞をまい、ヘロデをはじめ列座の人たちを喜ばせた。そこで王はこの少女に「ほしいものはなんでも言いなさい。あなたにあげるから」と言い、
And when the daughter of the said Herodias came in, and danced, and pleased Herod and them that sat with him, the king said unto the damsel, Ask of me whatsoever you will, and I will give it you.
23 さらに「ほしければ、この国の半分でもあげよう」と誓って言った。
And he swore unto her, Whatsoever you shall ask of me, I will give it you, unto the half of my kingdom.
24 そこで少女は座をはずして、母に「何をお願いしましょうか」と尋ねると、母は「バプテスマのヨハネの首を」と答えた。
And she went forth, and said unto her mother, What shall I ask? And she said, The head of John the Baptist.
25 するとすぐ、少女は急いで王のところに行って願った、「今すぐに、バプテスマのヨハネの首を盆にのせて、それをいただきとうございます」。
And she came in immediately with haste unto the king, and asked, saying, I will that you give me by and by in a charger the head of John the Baptist.
26 王は非常に困ったが、いったん誓ったのと、また列座の人たちの手前、少女の願いを退けることを好まなかった。
And the king was exceeding sorry; yet for his oath's sake, and for their sakes which sat with him, he would not reject her.
27 そこで、王はすぐに衛兵をつかわし、ヨハネの首を持って来るように命じた。衛兵は出て行き、獄中でヨハネの首を切り、
And immediately the king sent an executioner, and commanded his head to be brought: and he went and beheaded him in the prison,
28 盆にのせて持ってきて少女に与え、少女はそれを母にわたした。
And brought his head in a charger, and gave it to the damsel: and the damsel gave it to her mother.
29 ヨハネの弟子たちはこのことを聞き、その死体を引き取りにきて、墓に納めた。
And when his disciples heard of it, they came and took up his corpse, and laid it in a tomb.
30 さて、使徒たちはイエスのもとに集まってきて、自分たちがしたことや教えたことを、みな報告した。
And the apostles gathered themselves together unto Jesus, and told him all things, both what they had done, and what they had taught.
31 するとイエスは彼らに言われた、「さあ、あなたがたは、人を避けて寂しい所へ行って、しばらく休むがよい」。それは、出入りする人が多くて、食事をする暇もなかったからである。
And he said unto them, Come all of you yourselves apart into a desert place, and rest a while: for there were many coming and going, and they had no leisure so much as to eat.
32 そこで彼らは人を避け、舟に乗って寂しい所へ行った。
And they departed into a desert place by ship privately.
33 ところが、多くの人々は彼らが出かけて行くのを見、それと気づいて、方々の町々からそこへ、一せいに駆けつけ、彼らより先に着いた。
And the people saw them departing, and many knew him, and ran on foot thither out of all cities, and advanced before them, and came together unto him.
34 イエスは舟から上がって大ぜいの群衆をごらんになり、飼う者のない羊のようなその有様を深くあわれんで、いろいろと教えはじめられた。
And Jesus, when he came out, saw much people, and was moved with compassion toward them, because they were as sheep not having a shepherd: and he began to teach them many things.
35 ところが、はや時もおそくなったので、弟子たちはイエスのもとにきて言った、「ここは寂しい所でもあり、もう時もおそくなりました。
And when the day was now far spent, his disciples came unto him, and said, This is a desert place, and now the time is far passed:
36 みんなを解散させ、めいめいで何か食べる物を買いに、まわりの部落や村々へ行かせてください」。
Send them away, that they may go into the country round about, and into the villages, and buy themselves bread: for they have nothing to eat.
37 イエスは答えて言われた、「あなたがたの手で食物をやりなさい」。弟子たちは言った、「わたしたちが二百デナリものパンを買ってきて、みんなに食べさせるのですか」。
He answered and said unto them, Give all of you them to eat. And they say unto him, Shall we go and buy two hundred pennyworth of bread, and give them to eat?
38 するとイエスは言われた、「パンは幾つあるか。見てきなさい」。彼らは確かめてきて、「五つあります。それに魚が二ひき」と言った。
He says unto them, How many loaves have all of you? go and see. And when they knew, they say, Five, and two fishes.
39 そこでイエスは、みんなを組々に分けて、青草の上にすわらせるように命じられた。
And he commanded them to make all sit down by companies upon the green grass.
40 人々は、あるいは百人ずつ、あるいは五十人ずつ、列をつくってすわった。
And they sat down in ranks, by hundreds, and by fifties.
41 それから、イエスは五つのパンと二ひきの魚とを手に取り、天を仰いでそれを祝福し、パンをさき、弟子たちにわたして配らせ、また、二ひきの魚もみんなにお分けになった。
And when he had taken the five loaves and the two fishes, he looked up to heaven, and blessed, and brake the loaves, and gave them to his disciples to set before them; and the two fishes divided he among them all.
42 みんなの者は食べて満腹した。
And they did all eat, and were filled.
43 そこで、パンくずや魚の残りを集めると、十二のかごにいっぱいになった。
And they took up twelve baskets full of the fragments, and of the fishes.
44 パンを食べた者は男五千人であった。
And they that did eat of the loaves were about five thousand men.
45 それからすぐ、イエスは自分で群衆を解散させておられる間に、しいて弟子たちを舟に乗り込ませ、向こう岸のベツサイダへ先におやりになった。
And immediately he constrained his disciples to get into the ship, and to go to the other side before unto Bethsaida, while he sent away the people.
46 そして群衆に別れてから、祈るために山へ退かれた。
And when he had sent them away, he departed into a mountain to pray.
47 夕方になったとき、舟は海のまん中に出ており、イエスだけが陸地におられた。
And when even was come, the ship was in the midst of the sea, and he alone on the land.
48 ところが逆風が吹いていたために、弟子たちがこぎ悩んでいるのをごらんになって、夜明けの四時ごろ、海の上を歩いて彼らに近づき、そのそばを通り過ぎようとされた。
And he saw them toiling in rowing; for the wind was contrary unto them: and about the fourth watch of the night he comes unto them, walking upon the sea, and would have passed by them.
49 彼らはイエスが海の上を歩いておられるのを見て、幽霊だと思い、大声で叫んだ。
But when they saw him walking upon the sea, they supposed it had been a spirit, and cried out:
50 みんなの者がそれを見て、おじ恐れたからである。しかし、イエスはすぐ彼らに声をかけ、「しっかりするのだ。わたしである。恐れることはない」と言われた。
For they all saw him, and were troubled. And immediately he talked with them, and says unto them, Be of good cheer: it is I; be not afraid.
51 そして、彼らの舟に乗り込まれると、風はやんだ。彼らは心の中で、非常に驚いた。
And he went up unto them into the ship; and the wind ceased: and they were sore amazed in themselves beyond measure, and wondered.
52 先のパンのことを悟らず、その心が鈍くなっていたからである。
For they considered not the miracle of the loaves: for their heart was hardened.
53 彼らは海を渡り、ゲネサレの地に着いて舟をつないだ。
And when they had passed over, they came into the land of Gennesaret, and drew to the shore.
54 そして舟からあがると、人々はすぐイエスと知って、
And when they were come out of the ship, immediately they knew him,
55 その地方をあまねく駆けめぐり、イエスがおられると聞けば、どこへでも病人を床にのせて運びはじめた。
And ran through that whole region round about, and began to carry about in beds those that were sick, where they heard he was.
56 そして、村でも町でも部落でも、イエスがはいって行かれる所では、病人たちをその広場におき、せめてその上着のふさにでも、さわらせてやっていただきたいと、お願いした。そしてさわった者は皆いやされた。
And anywhere he entered, into villages, or cities, or country, they laid the sick in the streets, and besought him that they might touch if it were but the border of his garment: and as many as touched him were made whole.
