Chinese Union Version, punctuated (Traditional)
1The apostles and brothers throughout Judea soon heard that the Gentiles also had received the word of God.
1使徒和在 猶太 的眾弟兄聽說外邦人也領受了上帝的道。
2So when Peter went up to Jerusalem, the circumcised believers took issue with him
2及至 彼得 上了 耶路撒冷 ，那些奉割禮的門徒和他爭辯說：
3and said, “You visited uncircumcised men and ate with them.”
3「你進入未受割禮之人的家和他們一同吃飯了。」
4But Peter began and explained to them the whole sequence of events:
4彼得 就開口把這事挨次給他們講解說：
5“I was in the city of Joppa praying, and in a trance I saw a vision of something like a large sheet being let down from heaven by its four corners, and it came right down to me.
5「我在 約帕 城裏禱告的時候，魂遊象外，看見異象，有一物降下，好像一塊大布，繫着四角，從天縋下，直來到我跟前。
6I looked at it closely and saw four-footed animals of the earth, wild beasts, reptiles, and birds of the air.
6我定睛觀看，見內中有地上四足的牲畜和野獸、昆蟲，並天上的飛鳥。
7Then I heard a voice saying to me, ‘Get up, Peter, kill and eat.’
7我且聽見有聲音向我說：『 彼得 ，起來，宰了吃！』
8‘No, Lord,’ I said, ‘for nothing impure or unclean has ever entered my mouth.’
8我說：『主啊，這是不可的！凡俗而不潔淨的物從來沒有入過我的口。』
9But the voice spoke from heaven a second time, ‘Do not call anything impure that God has made clean.’
9第二次，有聲音從天上說：『上帝所潔淨的，你不可當作俗物。』
10This happened three times, and everything was drawn back up into heaven.
10這樣一連三次，就都收回天上去了。
11Just then three men sent to me from Caesarea stopped at the house where I was staying.
11正當那時，有三個人站在我們所住的房門前，是從 凱撒利亞 差來見我的。
12The Spirit told me to accompany them without hesitation. These six brothers also went with me, and we entered the man’s home.
12聖靈吩咐我和他們同去，不要疑惑。同着我去的，還有這六位弟兄，我們都進了那人的家。
13He told us how he had seen an angel standing in his house and saying, ‘Send to Joppa for Simon who is called Peter.
13那人就告訴我們，他如何看見一位天使站在他屋裏，說：『你打發人往 約帕 去，請那稱呼 彼得 的 西門 來，
14He will convey to you a message by which you and all your household will be saved.’
14他有話告訴你，可以叫你和你的全家得救。』
15As I began to speak, the Holy Spirit fell upon them, just as He had fallen upon us at the beginning.
15我一開講，聖靈便降在他們身上，正像當初降在我們身上一樣。
16Then I remembered the word of the Lord, as He used to say, ‘John baptized with water, but you will be baptized with the Holy Spirit.’
16我就想起主的話說：『 約翰 是用水施洗，但你們要受聖靈的洗。』
17So if God gave them the same gift He gave us who believed in the Lord Jesus Christ, who was I to hinder the work of God?”
17上帝既然給他們恩賜，像在我們信主耶穌基督的時候給了我們一樣；我是誰，能攔阻上帝呢？」
18When they heard this, their objections were put to rest, and they glorified God, saying, “So then, God has granted even the Gentiles repentance unto life.”
18眾人聽見這話，就不言語了，只歸榮耀與上帝，說：「這樣看來，上帝也賜恩給外邦人，叫他們悔改得生命了。」
19Meanwhile those scattered by the persecution that began with Stephen traveled as far as Phoenicia, Cyprus, and Antioch, speaking the message only to Jews.
19那些因 司提反 的事遭患難四散的門徒直走到 腓尼基 和 塞浦路斯 ，並 安提阿 ；他們不向別人講道，只向 猶太 人講。
20But some of them, men from Cyprus and Cyrene, went to Antioch and began speaking to the Greeks as well, proclaiming the good news about the Lord Jesus.
20但內中有 塞浦路斯 和 古利奈 人，他們到了 安提阿 也向 希臘 人傳講主耶穌。
21The hand of the Lord was with them, and a great number of people believed and turned to the Lord.
21主與他們同在，信而歸主的人就很多了。
22When news of this reached the ears of the church in Jerusalem, they sent Barnabas to Antioch.
22這風聲傳到 耶路撒冷 教會人的耳中，他們就打發 巴拿巴 出去，走到 安提阿 為止。
23When he arrived and saw the grace of God, he rejoiced and encouraged them all to abide in the Lord with all their hearts.
23他到了那裏，看見上帝所賜的恩就歡喜，勸勉眾人，立定心志，恆久靠主。
24Barnabas was a good man, full of the Holy Spirit and faith, and a great number of people were brought to the Lord.
24這 巴拿巴 原是個好人，被聖靈充滿，大有信心。於是有許多人歸服了主。
25Then Barnabas went to Tarsus to look for Saul,
25他又往 大數 去找 掃羅 ，
26and when he found him, he brought him back to Antioch. So for a full year they met together with the church and taught large numbers of people. The disciples were first called Christians at Antioch.
26找着了，就帶他到 安提阿 去。他們足有一年的工夫和教會一同聚集，教訓了許多人。門徒稱為「基督徒」是從 安提阿 起首。
27In those days some prophets came down from Jerusalem to Antioch.
27當那些日子，有幾位先知從 耶路撒冷 下到 安提阿 。
28One of them named Agabus stood up and predicted through the Spirit that a great famine would sweep across the whole world. (This happened under Claudius.)
28內中有一位，名叫 亞迦布 ，站起來，藉着 聖 靈指明天下將有大饑荒。（這事到 克勞第 年間果然有了。）
29So the disciples, each according to his ability, decided to send relief to the brothers living in Judea.
29於是門徒定意照各人的力量捐錢，送去供給住在 猶太 的弟兄。
30This they did, sending their gifts to the elders with Barnabas and Saul.
30他們就這樣行，把捐項託 巴拿巴 和 掃羅 送到眾長老那裏。
