1When he opened the seventh seal, there was silence in heaven for about half an hour.
1小羊が第七の封印を開くと、天に半時間ほどの静寂があった。
2I saw the seven angels who stand before God, and seven trumpets were given to them.
2私は、神の前に立つ七人の御使いを見た。彼らには七つのラッパが与えられた。
3Another angel came and stood over the altar, having a golden censer. Much incense was given to him, that he should add it to the prayers of all the saints on the golden altar which was before the throne.
3また、別の御使いが来て、金の香炉を持って祭壇のそばに立った。王座の前にある金の祭壇の上で、すべての聖徒の祈りとともにささげるため、多くの香がその御使いに与えられた。
4The smoke of the incense, with the prayers of the saints, went up before God out of the angel’s hand.
4香の煙は、聖徒たちの祈りとともに、御使いの手から神の前に立ち上った。
5The angel took the censer, and he filled it with the fire of the altar, then threw it on the earth. Thunders, sounds, lightnings, and an earthquake followed.
5御使いは香炉を取り、それを祭壇の火で満たして地上に投げた。すると、雷鳴とさまざまな響きと稲妻と地震が起こった。
6The seven angels who had the seven trumpets prepared themselves to sound.
6七つのラッパを持つ七人の御使いは、ラッパを吹く用意をした。
7The first sounded, and there followed hail and fire, mixed with blood, and they were thrown to the earth. One third of the earth was burned up, and one third of the trees were burned up, and all green grass was burned up.
7第一の御使いがラッパを吹くと、血の混じった雹と火が起こり、地上に投げつけられた。地の三分の一が焼け、木々の三分の一が焼け、すべての青草も焼けた。
8The second angel sounded, and something like a great burning mountain was thrown into the sea. One third of the sea became blood,
8第二の御使いがラッパを吹くと、火で燃えている大きな山のようなものが海に投げ込まれた。海の三分の一が血となり、
9and one third of the living creatures which were in the sea died. One third of the ships were destroyed.
9海にいる生き物のうち、命のあるものの三分の一が死に、船の三分の一が破壊された。
10The third angel sounded, and a great star fell from the sky, burning like a torch, and it fell on one third of the rivers, and on the springs of water.
10第三の御使いがラッパを吹くと、たいまつのように燃える大きな星が空から落ち、川の三分の一と水の泉の上に落ちた。
11The name of the star is “Wormwood.” One third of the waters became wormwood. Many people died from the waters, because they were made bitter.
11その星の名は「苦よもぎ」という。水の三分の一が苦よもぎのように苦くなり、その水が苦くされたため、多くの人が死んだ。
12The fourth angel sounded, and one third of the sun was struck, and one third of the moon, and one third of the stars, so that one third of them would be darkened; and the day wouldn’t shine for one third of it, and the night in the same way.
12第四の御使いがラッパを吹くと、太陽の三分の一、月の三分の一、星の三分の一が打たれ、それぞれの三分の一が暗くなった。そのため、昼はその三分の一が光を失い、夜も同じようになった。
13I saw, and I heard an eagle, flying in mid heaven, saying with a loud voice, “Woe! Woe! Woe to those who dwell on the earth, because of the other blasts of the trumpets of the three angels, who are yet to sound!”
13また、一羽の鷲が中天を飛びながら、大声でこう叫ぶのを見聞きした。「災いだ。災いだ。災いだ。なおラッパを吹こうとしている三人の御使い、そのラッパの音のために、地上に住む者たちは災いだ。」
