使徒行傳 16
Chinese Union Version, punctuated (Traditional)
King James Version with Apocrypha
1保羅 來到 特庇 ，又到 路司得 。在那裏有一個門徒，名叫 提摩太 ，是信主之 猶太 婦人的兒子，他父親卻是 希臘 人。
1Then came he to Derbe and Lystra: and, behold, a certain disciple was there, named Timotheus, the son of a certain woman, which was a Jewess, and believed; but his father was a Greek:
2路司得 和 以哥念 的弟兄都稱讚他。
2Which was well reported of by the brethren that were at Lystra and Iconium.
3保羅 要帶他同去，只因那些地方的 猶太 人都知道他父親是 希臘 人，就給他行了割禮。
3Him would Paul have to go forth with him; and took and circumcised him because of the Jews which were in those quarters: for they knew all that his father was a Greek.
4他們經過各城，把 耶路撒冷 使徒和長老所定的條規交給門徒遵守。
4And as they went through the cities, they delivered them the decrees for to keep, that were ordained of the apostles and elders which were at Jerusalem.
5於是眾教會信心越發堅固，人數天天加增。
5And so were the churches established in the faith, and increased in number daily.
6聖靈既然禁止他們在 亞細亞 講道，他們就經過 弗呂家 、 加拉太 一帶地方。
6Now when they had gone throughout Phrygia and the region of Galatia, and were forbidden of the Holy Ghost to preach the word in Asia,
7到了 每西亞 的邊界，他們想要往 庇推尼 去，耶穌的靈卻不許。
7After they were come to Mysia, they assayed to go into Bithynia: but the Spirit suffered them not.
8他們就越過 每西亞 ，下到 特羅亞 去。
8And they passing by Mysia came down to Troas.
9在夜間有異象現與 保羅 。有一個 馬其頓 人站着求他說：「請你過到 馬其頓 來幫助我們。」
9And a vision appeared to Paul in the night; There stood a man of Macedonia, and prayed him, saying, Come over into Macedonia, and help us.
10保羅 既看見這異象，我們隨即想要往 馬其頓 去，以為上帝召我們傳福音給那裏的人聽。
10And after he had seen the vision, immediately we endeavoured to go into Macedonia, assuredly gathering that the Lord had called us for to preach the gospel unto them.
11於是從 特羅亞 開船，一直行到 撒摩特喇 ，第二天到了 尼亞坡里 。
11Therefore loosing from Troas, we came with a straight course to Samothracia, and the next day to Neapolis;
12從那裏來到 腓立比 ，就是 馬其頓 這一方的頭一個城，也是 羅馬 的駐防城。我們在這城裏住了幾天。
12And from thence to Philippi, which is the chief city of that part of Macedonia, and a colony: and we were in that city abiding certain days.
13當安息日，我們出城門，到了河邊，知道那裏有一個禱告的地方，我們就坐下對那聚會的婦女講道。
13And on the sabbath we went out of the city by a river side, where prayer was wont to be made; and we sat down, and spake unto the women which resorted thither.
14有一個賣紫色布疋的婦人，名叫 呂底亞 ，是 推雅推喇 城的人，素來敬拜上帝。她聽見了，主就開導她的心，叫她留心聽 保羅 所講的話。
14¶ And a certain woman named Lydia, a seller of purple, of the city of Thyatira, which worshipped God, heard us : whose heart the Lord opened, that she attended unto the things which were spoken of Paul.
15她和她一家既領了洗，便求我們說：「你們若以為我是真信主的，請到我家裏來住」；於是強留我們。
15And when she was baptized, and her household, she besought us , saying, If ye have judged me to be faithful to the Lord, come into my house, and abide there . And she constrained us.
16後來，我們往那禱告的地方去。有一個使女迎着面來，她被巫鬼所附，用法術，叫她主人們大得財利。
16¶ And it came to pass, as we went to prayer, a certain damsel possessed with a spirit of divination met us, which brought her masters much gain by soothsaying:
17她跟隨 保羅 和我們，喊着說：「這些人是至高上帝的僕人，對你們傳說救人的道。」
17The same followed Paul and us, and cried, saying, These men are the servants of the most high God, which shew unto us the way of salvation.
18她一連多日這樣喊叫， 保羅 就心中厭煩，轉身對那鬼說：「我奉耶穌基督的名，吩咐你從她身上出來！」那鬼當時就出來了。
18And this did she many days. But Paul, being grieved, turned and said to the spirit, I command thee in the name of Jesus Christ to come out of her. And he came out the same hour.
19使女的主人們見得利的指望沒有了，便揪住 保羅 和 西拉 ，拉他們到市上去見首領；
19¶ And when her masters saw that the hope of their gains was gone, they caught Paul and Silas, and drew them into the marketplace unto the rulers,
20又帶到官長面前說：「這些人原是 猶太 人，竟騷擾我們的城，
20And brought them to the magistrates, saying, These men, being Jews, do exceedingly trouble our city,
21傳我們 羅馬 人所不可受不可行的規矩。」
21And teach customs, which are not lawful for us to receive, neither to observe, being Romans.
22眾人就一同起來攻擊他們。官長吩咐剝了他們的衣裳，用棍打；
22And the multitude rose up together against them: and the magistrates rent off their clothes, and commanded to beat them .
23打了許多棍，便將他們下在監裏，囑咐禁卒嚴緊看守。
23And when they had laid many stripes upon them, they cast them into prison, charging the jailor to keep them safely:
24禁卒領了這樣的命，就把他們下在內監裏，兩腳上了木狗。
24Who, having received such a charge, thrust them into the inner prison, and made their feet fast in the stocks.
25約在半夜， 保羅 和 西拉 禱告，唱詩讚美上帝，眾囚犯也側耳而聽。
25¶ And at midnight Paul and Silas prayed, and sang praises unto God: and the prisoners heard them.
26忽然，地大震動，甚至監牢的地基都搖動了，監門立刻全開，眾囚犯的鎖鍊也都鬆開了。
26And suddenly there was a great earthquake, so that the foundations of the prison were shaken: and immediately all the doors were opened, and every one’s bands were loosed.
27禁卒一醒，看見監門全開，以為囚犯已經逃走，就拔刀要自殺。
27And the keeper of the prison awaking out of his sleep, and seeing the prison doors open, he drew out his sword, and would have killed himself, supposing that the prisoners had been fled.
28保羅 大聲呼叫說：「不要傷害自己！我們都在這裏。」
28But Paul cried with a loud voice, saying, Do thyself no harm: for we are all here.
29禁卒叫人拿燈來，就跳進去，戰戰兢兢地俯伏在 保羅 、 西拉 面前；
29Then he called for a light, and sprang in, and came trembling, and fell down before Paul and Silas,
30又領他們出來，說：「二位先生，我當怎樣行才可以得救？」
30And brought them out, and said, Sirs, what must I do to be saved?
31他們說：「當信主耶穌，你和你一家都必得救。」
31And they said, Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and thou shalt be saved, and thy house.
32他們就把主的道講給他和他全家的人聽。
32And they spake unto him the word of the Lord, and to all that were in his house.
33當夜，就在那時候，禁卒把他們帶去，洗他們的傷；他和屬乎他的人立時都受了洗。
33And he took them the same hour of the night, and washed their stripes; and was baptized, he and all his, straightway.
34於是禁卒領他們上自己家裏去，給他們擺上飯。他和全家，因為信了上帝，都很喜樂。
34And when he had brought them into his house, he set meat before them, and rejoiced, believing in God with all his house.
35到了天亮，官長打發差役來，說：「釋放那兩個人吧。」
35And when it was day, the magistrates sent the serjeants, saying, Let those men go.
36禁卒就把這話告訴 保羅 說：「官長打發人來叫釋放你們，如今可以出監，平平安安地去吧。」
36And the keeper of the prison told this saying to Paul, The magistrates have sent to let you go: now therefore depart, and go in peace.
37保羅 卻說：「我們是 羅馬 人，並沒有定罪，他們就在眾人面前打了我們，又把我們下在監裏，現在要私下攆我們出去嗎？這是不行的。叫他們自己來領我們出去吧！」
37But Paul said unto them, They have beaten us openly uncondemned, being Romans, and have cast us into prison; and now do they thrust us out privily? nay verily; but let them come themselves and fetch us out.
38差役把這話回稟官長。官長聽見他們是 羅馬 人，就害怕了，
38And the serjeants told these words unto the magistrates: and they feared, when they heard that they were Romans.
39於是來勸他們，領他們出來，請他們離開那城。
39And they came and besought them, and brought them out, and desired them to depart out of the city.
40二人出了監，往 呂底亞 家裏去， 見了弟兄們，勸慰他們一番，就走了。
40And they went out of the prison, and entered into the house of Lydia: and when they had seen the brethren, they comforted them, and departed.
