Galatians 3
Berean Standard BibleTranslation
Berean Standard Bible
Chinese Union Version, punctuated (Traditional)
1O foolish Galatians! Who has bewitched you? Before your very eyes Jesus Christ was clearly portrayed as crucified.
1無知的 加拉太 人哪,耶穌基督釘十字架,已經活畫在你們眼前,誰又迷惑了你們呢?
2I would like to learn just one thing from you: Did you receive the Spirit by works of the law, or by hearing with faith?
2我只要問你們這一件:你們受了 聖 靈,是因行律法呢?是因聽信 福音 呢?
3Are you so foolish? After starting in the Spirit, are you now finishing in the flesh?
3你們既靠 聖 靈入門,如今還靠肉身成全嗎?你們是這樣的無知嗎?
4Have you suffered so much for nothing, if it really was for nothing?
4你們受苦如此之多,都是徒然的嗎?難道果真是徒然的嗎?
5Does God lavish His Spirit on you and work miracles among you because you practice the law, or because you hear and believe?
5那賜給你們 聖 靈,又在你們中間行異能的,是因你們行律法呢?是因你們聽信 福音 呢?
6So also, “Abraham believed God, and it was credited to him as righteousness.”
6正如「 亞伯拉罕 信上帝,這就算為他的義」。
7Understand, then, that those who have faith are sons of Abraham.
7所以,你們要知道:那以信為本的人,就是 亞伯拉罕 的子孫。
8The Scripture foresaw that God would justify the Gentiles by faith, and foretold the gospel to Abraham: “All nations will be blessed through you.”
8並且聖經既然預先看明,上帝要叫外邦人因信稱義,就早已傳福音給 亞伯拉罕 , 說 :「萬國都必因你得福。」
9So those who have faith are blessed along with Abraham, the man of faith.
9可見那以信為本的人和有信心的 亞伯拉罕 一同得福。
10All who rely on works of the law are under a curse. For it is written: “Cursed is everyone who does not continue to do everything written in the Book of the Law.”
10凡以行律法為本的,都是被咒詛的;因為 經上 記着:「凡不常照律法書上所記一切之事去行的,就被咒詛。」
11Now it is clear that no one is justified before God by the law, because, “The righteous will live by faith.”
11沒有一個人靠着律法在上帝面前稱義,這是明顯的;因為 經上 說:「義人必因信得生。」
12The law, however, is not based on faith; on the contrary, “The man who does these things will live by them.”
12律法原不本乎信,只 說 :「行這些事的,就必因此活着。」
13Christ redeemed us from the curse of the law by becoming a curse for us. For it is written: “Cursed is everyone who is hung on a tree.”
13基督既為我們受了咒詛,就贖出我們脫離律法的咒詛;因為 經上 記着:「凡掛在木頭上都是被咒詛的。」
14He redeemed us in order that the blessing promised to Abraham would come to the Gentiles in Christ Jesus, so that by faith we might receive the promise of the Spirit.
14這便叫 亞伯拉罕 的福,因基督耶穌可以臨到外邦人,使我們因信得着所應許的 聖 靈。
15Brothers, let me put this in human terms. Even a human covenant, once it is ratified, cannot be canceled or amended.
15弟兄們,我且照着人的常話說:雖然是人的文約,若已經立定了,就沒有能廢棄或加增的。
16The promises were spoken to Abraham and to his seed. The Scripture does not say, “and to seeds,” meaning many, but “and to your seed,” meaning One, who is Christ.
16所應許的原是向 亞伯拉罕 和他子孫說的。上帝並不是說「眾子孫」,指着許多人,乃是說「你那一個子孫」,指着一個人,就是基督。
17What I mean is this: The law that came 430 years later does not revoke the covenant previously established by God, so as to nullify the promise.
17我是這麼說,上帝預先所立的約,不能被那四百三十年以後的律法廢掉,叫應許歸於虛空。
18For if the inheritance depends on the law, then it no longer depends on a promise; but God freely granted it to Abraham through a promise.
18因為承受產業,若本乎律法,就不本乎應許;但上帝是憑着應許把產業賜給 亞伯拉罕 。
19Why then was the law given? It was added because of transgressions, until the arrival of the seed to whom the promise referred. It was administered through angels by a mediator.
19這樣說來,律法是為甚麼有的呢?原是為過犯添上的,等候那蒙應許的子孫來到,並且是藉天使經中保之手設立的。
20A mediator is unnecessary, however, for only one party; but God is one.
20但中保本不是為一面作的;上帝卻是一位。
21Is the law, then, opposed to the promises of God? Certainly not! For if a law had been given that could impart life, then righteousness would certainly have come from the law.
21這樣,律法是與上帝的應許反對嗎?斷乎不是!若曾傳一個能叫人得生的律法,義就誠然本乎律法了。
22But the Scripture pronounces all things confined by sin, so that by faith in Jesus Christ the promise might be given to those who believe.
22但聖經把眾人都圈在罪裏,使所應許的 福 因信耶穌基督,歸給那信的人。
23Before this faith came, we were held in custody under the law, locked up until faith should be revealed.
23但這 因 信 得救的理 還未來以先,我們被看守在律法之下,直圈到那將來的真道顯明出來。
24So the law became our guardian to lead us to Christ, that we might be justified by faith.
24這樣,律法是我們訓蒙的師傅, 引我們 到基督那裏,使我們因信稱義。
25Now that faith has come, we are no longer under a guardian.
25但這 因 信 得救的理 既然來到,我們從此就不在師傅的手下了。
26You are all sons of God through faith in Christ Jesus.
26所以,你們因信基督耶穌都是上帝的兒子。
27For all of you who were baptized into Christ have clothed yourselves with Christ.
27你們受洗歸入基督的都是披戴基督了。
28There is neither Jew nor Greek, slave nor free, male nor female, for you are all one in Christ Jesus.
28並不分 猶太 人、 希臘 人,自主的、為奴的,或男或女,因為你們在基督耶穌裏都成為一了。
29And if you belong to Christ, then you are Abraham’s seed and heirs according to the promise.
29你們既屬乎基督,就是 亞伯拉罕 的後裔,是照着應許承受產業的了。
