使徒行傳 17
Chinese Union Version, punctuated (Traditional)
Douay-Rheims Bible, American Edition (1899)
1保羅 和 西拉 經過 暗妃坡里 、 亞波羅尼亞 ，來到 帖撒羅尼迦 ，在那裏有 猶太 人的會堂。
1And when they had passed through Amphipolis and Apollonia, they came to Thessalonica, where there was a synagogue of the Jews.
2保羅 照他素常的規矩進去，一連三個安息日，本着聖經與他們辯論，
2And Paul, according to his custom, went in unto them; and for three sabbath days he reasoned with them out of the scriptures:
3講解陳明基督必須受害，從死裏復活；又說：「我所傳與你們的這位耶穌就是基督。」
3Declaring and insinuating that the Christ was to suffer, and to rise again from the dead; and that this is Jesus Christ, whom I preach to you.
4他們中間有些人聽了勸，就附從 保羅 和 西拉 ，並有許多虔敬的 希臘 人，尊貴的婦女也不少。
4And some of them believed, and were associated to Paul and Silas; and of those that served God, and of the Gentiles a great multitude, and of noble women not a few.
5但那 不信的 猶太 人心裏嫉妒，招聚了些市井匪類，搭夥成群，聳動合城的人闖進 耶孫 的家，要將 保羅 、 西拉 帶到百姓那裏。
5But the Jews, moved with envy, and taking unto them some wicked men of the vulgar sort, and making a tumult, set the city in an uproar; and besetting Jason’s house, sought to bring them out unto the people.
6找不着他們，就把 耶孫 和幾個弟兄拉到地方官那裏，喊叫說：「那攪亂天下的也到這裏來了，
6And not finding them, they drew Jason and certain brethren to the rulers of the city, crying: They that set the city in an uproar, are come hither also;
7耶孫 收留他們。這些人都違背凱撒的命令，說另有一個王耶穌。」
7Whom Jason hath received; and these all do contrary to the decrees of Caesar, saying that there is another king, Jesus.
8眾人和地方官聽見這話，就驚慌了；
8And they stirred up the people, and the rulers of the city hearing these things,
9於是取了 耶孫 和其餘之人的保狀，就釋放了他們。
9And having taken satisfaction of Jason and of the rest, they let them go.
10弟兄們隨即在夜間打發 保羅 和 西拉 往 庇哩亞 去。二人到了，就進入 猶太 人的會堂。
10But the brethren immediately sent away Paul and Silas by night unto Berea. Who, when they were come thither, went into the synagogue of the Jews.
11這地方的人賢於 帖撒羅尼迦 的人，甘心領受這道，天天考查聖經，要曉得這道是與不是。
11Now these were more noble than those in Thessalonica, who received the word with all eagerness, daily searching the scriptures, whether these things were so.
12所以他們中間多有相信的，又有 希臘 尊貴的婦女，男子也不少。
12And many indeed of them believed, and of honourable women that were Gentiles, and of men not a few.
13但 帖撒羅尼迦 的 猶太 人知道 保羅 又在 庇哩亞 傳上帝的道，也就往那裏去，聳動攪擾眾人。
13And when the Jews of Thessalonica had knowledge that the word of God was also preached by Paul at Berea, they came thither also, stirring up and troubling the multitude.
14當時弟兄們便打發 保羅 往海邊去， 西拉 和 提摩太 仍住在 庇哩亞 。
14And then immediately the brethren sent away Paul, to go unto the sea; but Silas and Timothy remained there.
15送 保羅 的人帶他到了 雅典 ，既領了 保羅 的命，叫 西拉 和 提摩太 速速到他這裏來，就回去了。
15And they that conducted Paul, brought him as far as Athens; and receiving a commandment from him to Silas and Timothy, that they should come to him with all speed, they departed.
16保羅 在 雅典 等候他們的時候，看見滿城都是偶像，就心裏着急；
16Now whilst Paul waited for them at Athens, his spirit was stirred within him, seeing the city wholly given to idolatry.
17於是在會堂裏與 猶太 人和虔敬的人，並每日在市上所遇見的人，辯論。
17He disputed, therefore, in the synagogue with the Jews, and with them that served God, and in the marketplace, every day with them that were there.
18還有 伊壁鳩魯 和 斯多亞 兩門的學士，與他爭論。有的說：「這胡言亂語的要說甚麼？」有的說：「他似乎是傳說外邦鬼神的。」這話是因 保羅 傳講耶穌與復活的道。
18And certain philosophers of the Epicureans and of the Stoics disputed with him; and some said: What is it, that this word sower would say? But others: He seemeth to be a setter forth of new gods; because he preached to them Jesus and the resurrection.
19他們就把他帶到 亞略‧巴古 ，說：「你所講的這新道，我們也可以知道嗎？
19And taking him, they brought him to the Areopagus, saying: May we know what this new doctrine is, which thou speakest of?
20因為你有些奇怪的事傳到我們耳中，我們願意知道這些事是甚麼意思。」（
20For thou bringest in certain new things to our ears. We would know therefore what these things mean.
21雅典 人和住在那裏的客人都不顧別的事，只將新聞說說聽聽。）
21(Now all the Athenians, and strangers that were there, employed themselves in nothing else, but either in telling or in hearing some new thing.)
22保羅 站在 亞略‧巴古 當中，說：「眾位 雅典 人哪，我看你們凡事很敬畏鬼神。
22But Paul standing in the midst of the Areopagus, said: Ye men of Athens, I perceive that in all things you are too superstitious.
23我遊行的時候，觀看你們所敬拜的，遇見一座壇，上面寫着『未識之神』。你們所不認識而敬拜的，我現在告訴你們。
23For passing by, and seeing your idols, I found an altar also, on which was written: To the unknown God. What therefore you worship, without knowing it, that I preach to you:
24創造宇宙和其中萬物的上帝，既是天地的主，就不住人手所造的殿，
24God, who made the world, and all things therein; he, being Lord of heaven and earth, dwelleth not in temples made with hands;
25也不用人手服事，好像缺少甚麼；自己倒將生命、氣息、萬物，賜給萬人。
25Neither is he served with men’s hands, as though he needed any thing; seeing it is he who giveth to all life, and breath, and all things:
26他從一本造出萬族的人，住在全地上，並且預先定準他們的年限和所住的疆界，
26And hath made of one, all mankind, to dwell upon the whole face of the earth, determining appointed times, and the limits of their habitation.
27要叫他們尋求上帝，或者可以揣摩而得，其實他離我們各人不遠；
27That they should seek God, if happily they may feel after him or find him, although he be not far from every one of us:
28我們生活、動作、存留，都在乎他。就如你們作詩的，有人說：『我們也是他所生的。』
28For in him we live, and move, and are; as some also of your own poets said: For we are also his offspring.
29我們既是上帝所生的，就不當以為上帝的神性像人用手藝、心思所雕刻的金、銀、石。
29Being therefore the offspring of God, we must not suppose the divinity to be like unto gold, or silver, or stone, the graving of art, and device of man.
30世人蒙昧無知的時候，上帝並不監察，如今卻吩咐各處的人都要悔改。
30And God indeed having winked at the times of this ignorance, now declareth unto men, that all should every where do penance.
31因為他已經定了日子，要藉着他所設立的人按公義審判天下，並且叫他從死裏復活，給萬人作可信的憑據。」
31Because he hath appointed a day wherein he will judge the world in equity, by the man whom he hath appointed; giving faith to all, by raising him up from the dead.
32眾人聽見從死裏復活的話，就有譏誚他的；又有人說：「我們再聽你講這個吧！」
32And when they had heard of the resurrection of the dead, some indeed mocked, but others said: We will hear thee again concerning this matter.
33於是 保羅 從他們當中出去了。
33So Paul went out from among them.
34但有幾個人貼近他，信了 主 ，其中有 亞略‧巴古 的官 丟尼修 ，並一個婦人，名叫 大馬哩 ，還有別人一同信從。
34But certain men adhering to him, did believe; among whom was also Dionysius, the Areopagite, and a woman named Damaris, and others with them.
