罗马书 4
Chinese Union Version, punctuated (Simplified)
Berean Standard Bible
1如此说来，我们的祖宗 亚伯拉罕 凭着肉体得了什么呢？
1What then shall we say that Abraham, our forefather, has discovered?
2倘若 亚伯拉罕 是因行为称义，就有可夸的；只是在 神面前并无可夸。
2If Abraham was indeed justified by works, he had something to boast about, but not before God.
3经上说什么呢？说：「 亚伯拉罕 信 神，这就算为他的义。」
3For what does the Scripture say? “Abraham believed God, and it was credited to him as righteousness.”
4做工的得工价，不算恩典，乃是该得的；
4Now the wages of the worker are not credited as a gift, but as an obligation.
5惟有不做工的，只信称罪人为义的 神，他的信就算为义。
5However, to the one who does not work, but believes in Him who justifies the wicked, his faith is credited as righteousness.
6正如 大卫 称那在行为以外蒙 神算为义的人是有福的。
6And David speaks likewise of the blessedness of the man to whom God credits righteousness apart from works:
7他 说： 得赦免其过、遮盖其罪的， 这人是有福的。
7“Blessed are they whose lawless acts are forgiven, whose sins are covered.
8主不算为有罪的， 这人是有福的。
8Blessed is the man whose sin the Lord will never count against him.”
9如此看来，这福是单加给那受割礼的人吗？不也是加给那未受割礼的人吗？因我们所说， 亚伯拉罕 的信，就算为他的义，
9Is this blessing only on the circumcised, or also on the uncircumcised? We have been saying that Abraham’s faith was credited to him as righteousness.
10是怎么算的呢？是在他受割礼的时候呢？是在他未受割礼的时候呢？不是在受割礼的时候，乃是在未受割礼的时候。
10In what context was it credited? Was it after his circumcision, or before? It was not after, but before.
11并且他受了割礼的记号，作他未受割礼的时候因信称义的印证，叫他作一切未受割礼而信之人的父，使他们也算为义；
11And he received the sign of circumcision as a seal of the righteousness that he had by faith while he was still uncircumcised. So then, he is the father of all who believe but are not circumcised, in order that righteousness might be credited to them.
12又作受割礼之人的父，就是那些不但受割礼，并且按我们的祖宗 亚伯拉罕 未受割礼而信之踪迹去行的人。
12And he is also the father of the circumcised who not only are circumcised, but who also walk in the footsteps of the faith that our father Abraham had before he was circumcised.
13因为 神 应许 亚伯拉罕 和他后裔，必得承受世界，不是因律法，乃是因信而得的义。
13For the promise to Abraham and his offspring that he would be heir of the world was not given through the law, but through the righteousness that comes by faith.
14若是属乎律法的人才得为后嗣，信就归于虚空，应许也就废弃了。
14For if those who live by the law are heirs, faith is useless and the promise is worthless,
15因为律法是惹动忿怒的；哪里没有律法，那里就没有过犯。
15because the law brings wrath. And where there is no law, there is no transgression.
16所以 人得为后嗣 是本乎信，因此就属乎恩，叫应许定然归给一切后裔；不但归给那属乎律法的，也归给那效法 亚伯拉罕 之信的。
16Therefore, the promise comes by faith, so that it may rest on grace and may be guaranteed to all Abraham’s offspring—not only to those who are of the law, but also to those who are of the faith of Abraham. He is the father of us all.
17亚伯拉罕 所信的，是那叫死人复活、使无变为有的 神，他在主面前作我们世人的父。如 经上 所记：「我已经立你作多国的父。」
17As it is written: “I have made you a father of many nations.” He is our father in the presence of God, in whom he believed, the God who gives life to the dead and calls into being what does not yet exist.
18他在无可指望的时候，因信仍有指望，就得以作多国的父，正如先前所说：「你的后裔将要如此。」
18Against all hope, Abraham in hope believed and so became the father of many nations, just as he had been told, “So shall your offspring be.”
19他将近百岁的时候，虽然想到自己的身体如同已死， 撒拉 的生育已经断绝，他的信心还是不软弱；
19Without weakening in his faith, he acknowledged the decrepitness of his body (since he was about a hundred years old) and the lifelessness of Sarah’s womb.
20并且仰望 神的应许，总没有因不信心里起疑惑，反倒因信心里得坚固，将荣耀归给 神，
20Yet he did not waver through disbelief in the promise of God, but was strengthened in his faith and gave glory to God,
21且满心相信 神所应许的必能做成。
21being fully persuaded that God was able to do what He had promised.
22所以，这就算为他的义。
22This is why “it was credited to him as righteousness.”
23「算为他义」的这句话不是单为他写的，
23Now the words “it was credited to him” were written not only for Abraham,
24也是为我们将来得算为义之人写的，就是我们这信 神使我们的主耶稣从死里复活的人。
24but also for us, to whom righteousness will be credited—for us who believe in Him who raised Jesus our Lord from the dead.
25耶稣被交给人，是为我们的过犯；复活，是为叫我们称义。
25He was delivered over to death for our trespasses and was raised to life for our justification.
