以弗所书 4
Chinese Union Version, punctuated (Simplified)
Berean Standard Bible
1我为主被囚的劝你们:既然蒙召,行事为人就当与蒙召的恩相称。
1As a prisoner in the Lord, then, I urge you to walk in a manner worthy of the calling you have received:
2凡事谦虚、温柔、忍耐,用爱心互相宽容,
2with all humility and gentleness, with patience, bearing with one another in love,
3用和平彼此联络,竭力保守 圣 灵所赐合而为一的心。
3and with diligence to preserve the unity of the Spirit through the bond of peace.
4身体只有一个, 圣 灵只有一个,正如你们蒙召同有一个指望。
4There is one body and one Spirit, just as you were called to one hope when you were called;
5一主,一信,一洗,
5one Lord, one faith, one baptism;
6一 神,就是众人的父,超乎众人之上,贯乎众人之中,也住在众人之内。
6one God and Father of all, who is over all and through all and in all.
7我们各人蒙恩,都是照基督所量给各人的恩赐。
7Now to each one of us grace has been given according to the measure of the gift of Christ.
8所以 经上 说: 他升上高天的时候,掳掠了仇敌, 将各样的恩赐赏给人。 (
8This is why it says: “When He ascended on high, He led captives away, and gave gifts to men.”
9既说升上,岂不是先降在地下吗?
9What does “He ascended” mean, except that He also descended to the lower parts of the earth?
10那降下的,就是远升诸天之上要充满万有的。)
10He who descended is the very One who ascended above all the heavens, in order to fill all things.
11他所赐的,有使徒,有先知,有传福音的,有牧师和教师,
11And it was He who gave some to be apostles, some to be prophets, some to be evangelists, and some to be pastors and teachers,
12为要成全圣徒,各尽其职,建立基督的身体,
12to equip the saints for works of ministry and to build up the body of Christ,
13直等到我们众人在真道上同归于一,认识 神的儿子,得以长大成人,满有基督长成的身量,
13until we all reach unity in the faith and in the knowledge of the Son of God, as we mature to the full measure of the stature of Christ.
14使我们不再作小孩子,中了人的诡计和欺骗的法术,被一切异教之风摇动,飘来飘去,就随从各样的异端;
14Then we will no longer be infants, tossed about by the waves and carried around by every wind of teaching and by the clever cunning of men in their deceitful scheming.
15惟用爱心说诚实话,凡事长进,连于元首基督,
15Instead, speaking the truth in love, we will in all things grow up into Christ Himself, who is the head.
16全身都靠他联络得合式,百节各按各职,照着各体的功用彼此相助,便叫身体渐渐增长,在爱中建立自己。
16From Him the whole body, fitted and held together by every supporting ligament, grows and builds itself up in love through the work of each individual part.
17所以我说,且在主里确实地说,你们行事不要再像外邦人存虚妄的心行事。
17So I tell you this, and insist on it in the Lord, that you must no longer walk as the Gentiles do, in the futility of their thinking.
18他们心地昏昧,与 神所赐的生命隔绝了,都因自己无知,心里刚硬;
18They are darkened in their understanding and alienated from the life of God because of the ignorance that is in them due to the hardness of their hearts.
19良心既然丧尽,就放纵私欲,贪行种种的污秽。
19Having lost all sense of shame, they have given themselves over to sensuality for the practice of every kind of impurity, with a craving for more.
20你们学了基督,却不是这样。
20But this is not the way you came to know Christ.
21如果你们听过他的道,领了他的教,学了他的真理,
21Surely you heard of Him and were taught in Him—in keeping with the truth that is in Jesus—
22就要脱去你们从前行为上的旧人,这旧人是因私欲的迷惑渐渐变坏的;
22to put off your former way of life, your old self, which is being corrupted by its deceitful desires;
23又要将你们的心志改换一新,
23to be renewed in the spirit of your minds;
24并且穿上新人;这新人是照着 神 的形象 造的,有真理的仁义和圣洁。
24and to put on the new self, created to be like God in true righteousness and holiness.
25所以,你们要弃绝谎言,各人与邻舍说实话,因为我们是互相为肢体。
25Therefore each of you must put off falsehood and speak truthfully to his neighbor, for we are all members of one another.
26生气却不要犯罪;不可含怒到日落,
26“Be angry, yet do not sin.” Do not let the sun set upon your anger,
27也不可给魔鬼留地步。
27and do not give the devil a foothold.
28从前偷窃的,不要再偷;总要劳力,亲手做正经事,就可有 余 分给那缺少的人。
28He who has been stealing must steal no longer, but must work, doing good with his own hands, that he may have something to share with the one in need.
29污秽的言语一句不可出口,只要随事说造就人的好话,叫听见的人得益处。
29Let no unwholesome talk come out of your mouths, but only what is helpful for building up the one in need and bringing grace to those who listen.
30不要叫 神的圣灵担忧;你们原是受了他的印记,等候得赎的日子来到。
30And do not grieve the Holy Spirit of God, in whom you were sealed for the day of redemption.
31一切苦毒、恼恨、忿怒、嚷闹、毁谤,并一切的恶毒,都当从你们中间除掉;
31Get rid of all bitterness, rage and anger, outcry and slander, along with every form of malice.
32并要以恩慈相待,存怜悯的心,彼此饶恕,正如 神在基督里饶恕了你们一样。
32Be kind and tenderhearted to one another, forgiving each other just as in Christ God forgave you.
