使徒行传 19
Chinese Union Version, punctuated (Simplified)
Douay-Rheims Bible, American Edition (1899)
1亚波罗 在 哥林多 的时候, 保罗 经过了上边一带地方,就来到 以弗所 ;在那里遇见几个门徒,
1And it came to pass, while Apollo was at Corinth, that Paul having passed through the upper coasts, came to Ephesus, and found certain disciples.
2问他们说:「你们信的时候受了圣灵没有?」他们回答说:「没有,也未曾听见有圣灵 赐下来 。」
2And he said to them: Have you received the Holy Ghost since ye believed? But they said to him: We have not so much as heard whether there be a Holy Ghost.
3保罗 说:「这样,你们受的是什么洗呢?」他们说:「是 约翰 的洗。」
3And he said: In what then were you baptized? Who said: In John’s baptism.
4保罗 说:「 约翰 所行的是悔改的洗,告诉百姓当信那在他以后要来的,就是耶稣。」
4Then Paul said: John baptized the people with the baptism of penance, saying: That they should believe in him who was to come after him, that is to say, in Jesus.
5他们听见这话,就奉主耶稣的名受洗。
5Having heard these things, they were baptized in the name of the Lord Jesus.
6保罗 按手在他们 头 上,圣灵便降在他们身上,他们就说方言,又说预言。
6And when Paul had imposed his hands on them, the Holy Ghost came upon them, and they spoke with tongues and prophesied.
7一共约有十二个人。
7And all the men were about twelve.
8保罗 进会堂,放胆讲道,一连三个月,辩论 神国的事,劝化众人。
8And entering into the synagogue, he spoke boldly for the space of three months, disputing and exhorting concerning the kingdom of God.
9后来,有些人心里刚硬不信,在众人面前毁谤这道, 保罗 就离开他们,也叫门徒与他们分离,便在 推喇奴 的学房天天辩论。
9But when some were hardened, and believed not, speaking evil of the way of the Lord, before the multitude, departing from them, he separated the disciples, disputing daily in the school of one Tyrannus.
10这样有两年之久,叫一切住在 亚细亚 的,无论是 犹太 人,是 希腊 人,都听见主的道。
10And this continued for the space of two years, so that all they who dwelt in Asia, heard the word of the Lord, both Jews and Gentiles.
11神借 保罗 的手行了些非常的奇事;
11And God wrought by the hand of Paul more than common miracles.
12甚至有人从 保罗 身上拿手巾或围裙放在病人身上,病就退了,恶鬼也出去了。
12So that even there were brought from his body to the sick, handkerchiefs and aprons, and the diseases departed from them, and the wicked spirits went out of them.
13那时,有几个游行各处、念咒赶鬼的 犹太 人,向那被恶鬼附的人擅自称主耶稣的名,说:「我奉 保罗 所传的耶稣敕令你们出来!」
13Now some also of the Jewish exorcists who went about, attempted to invoke over them that had evil spirits, the name of the Lord Jesus, saying: I conjure you by Jesus, whom Paul preacheth.
14做这事的,有 犹太 祭司长 士基瓦 的七个儿子。
14And there were certain men, seven sons of Sceva, a Jew, a chief priest, that did this.
15恶鬼回答他们说:「耶稣我认识, 保罗 我也知道。你们却是谁呢?」
15But the wicked spirit, answering, said to them: Jesus I know, and Paul I know; but who are you?
16恶鬼所附的人就跳在他们身上,胜了其中二人,制伏他们,叫他们赤着身子受了伤,从那房子里逃出去了。
16And the man in whom the wicked spirit was, leaping upon them, and mastering them both, prevailed against them, so that they fled out of that house naked and wounded.
17凡住在 以弗所 的,无论是 犹太 人,是 希腊 人,都知道这事,也都惧怕;主耶稣的名从此就尊大了。
17And this became known to all the Jews and the Gentiles that dwelt at Ephesus; and fear fell on them all, and the name of the Lord Jesus was magnified.
18那已经信的,多有人来承认诉说自己所行的事。
18And many of them that believed, came confessing and declaring their deeds.
19平素行邪术的,也有许多人把书拿来,堆积在众人面前焚烧。他们算计书价,便知道共合五万块钱。
19And many of them who had followed curious arts, brought together their books, and burnt them before all; and counting the price of them, they found the money to be fifty thousand pieces of silver.
20主的道大大兴旺,而且得胜,就是这样。
20So mightily grew the word of God, and was confirmed.
21这些事完了, 保罗 心里定意经过了 马其顿 、 亚该亚 ,就往 耶路撒冷 去;又说:「我到了那里以后,也必须往 罗马 去看看。」
21And when these things were ended, Paul purposed in the spirit, when he had passed through Macedonia and Achaia, to go to Jerusalem, saying: After I have been there, I must see Rome also.
22于是从帮助他的人中打发 提摩太 、 以拉都 二人往 马其顿 去,自己暂时等在 亚细亚 。
22And sending into Macedonia two of them that ministered to him, Timothy and Erastus, he himself remained for a time in Asia.
23那时,因为这道起的扰乱不小。
23Now at that time there arose no small disturbance about the way of the Lord.
24有一个银匠,名叫 底米丢 ,是制造 亚底米 神银龛的,他使这样手艺人生意发达。
24For a certain man named Demetrius, a silversmith, who made silver temples for Diana, brought no small gain to the craftsmen;
25他聚集他们和同行的工人,说:「众位,你们知道我们是倚靠这生意发财。
25Whom he calling together, with the workmen of like occupation, said: Sirs, you know that our gain is by this trade;
26这 保罗 不但在 以弗所 ,也几乎在 亚细亚 全地,引诱迷惑许多人,说:『人手所做的,不是神。』这是你们所看见所听见的。
26And you see and hear, that this Paul by persuasion hath drawn away a great multitude, not only of Ephesus, but almost of all Asia, saying: They are not gods which are made by hands.
27这样,不独我们这事业被人藐视,就是大女神 亚底米 的庙也要被人轻忽,连 亚细亚 全地和普天下所敬拜的大女神之威荣也要消灭了。」
27So that not only this our craft is in danger to be set at nought, but also the temple of great Diana shall be reputed for nothing; yea, and her majesty shall begin to be destroyed, whom all Asia and the world worshippeth.
28众人听见,就怒气填胸,喊着说:「大哉, 以弗所 人的 亚底米 啊!」
28Having heard these things, they were full of anger, and cried out, saying: Great is Diana of the Ephesians.
29满城都轰动起来。众人拿住与 保罗 同行的 马其顿 人 该犹 和 亚里达古 ,齐心拥进戏园里去。
29And the whole city was filled with confusion; and having caught Gaius and Aristarchus, men of Macedonia, Paul’s companions, they rushed with one accord into the theatre.
30保罗 想要进去,到百姓那里,门徒却不许他去。
30And when Paul would have entered in unto the people, the disciples suffered him not.
31还有 亚细亚 几位首领,是 保罗 的朋友,打发人来劝他,不要冒险到戏园里去。
31And some also of the rulers of Asia, who were his friends, sent unto him, desiring that he would not venture himself into the theatre.
32聚集的人纷纷乱乱,有喊叫这个的,有喊叫那个的;大半不知道是为什么聚集。
32Now some cried one thing, some another. For the assembly was confused, and the greater part knew not for what cause they were come together.
33有人把 亚历山大 从众人中带出来, 犹太 人推他往前, 亚历山大 就摆手,要向百姓分诉;
33And they drew forth Alexander out of the multitude, the Jews thrusting him forward. And Alexander beckoning with his hand for silence, would have given the people satisfaction.
34只因他们认出他是 犹太 人,就大家同声喊着说:「大哉! 以弗所 人的 亚底米 啊。」如此约有两小时。
34But as soon as they perceived him to be a Jew, all with one voice, for the space of about two hours, cried out: Great is Diana of the Ephesians.
35那城里的书记安抚了众人,就说:「 以弗所 人哪,谁不知道 以弗所 人的城是看守大 亚底米 的庙和从 宙斯 那里落下来的 像 呢?
35And when the town clerk had appeased the multitudes, he said: Ye men of Ephesus, what man is there that knoweth not that the city of the Ephesians is a worshipper of the great Diana, and of Jupiter’s offspring.
36这事既是驳不倒的,你们就当安静,不可造次。
36For as much therefore as these things cannot be contradicted, you ought to be quiet, and to do nothing rashly.
37你们把这些人带来,他们并没有偷窃庙中之物,也没有谤 我们的女神。
37For you have brought hither these men, who are neither guilty of sacrilege, nor of blasphemy against your goddess.
38若是 底米丢 和他同行的人有控告人的事,自有放告的日子,也有方伯可以彼此对告。
38But if Demetrius and the craftsmen that are with him, have a matter against any man, the courts of justice are open, and there are proconsuls: let them accuse one another.
39你们若问别的事,就可以照常例聚集断定。
39And if you inquire after any other matter, it may be decided in a lawful assembly.
40今日的扰乱本是无缘无故,我们难免被查问。论到这样聚众,我们也说不出所以然来。」
40For we are even in danger to be called in question for this day’s uproar, there being no man guilty (of whom we may give account) of this concourse. And when he had said these things, he dismissed the assembly.
41说了这话,便叫众人散去。
