路加福音 12
Chinese Union Version, punctuated (Traditional)
Berean Standard Bible
1這時,有幾萬人聚集,甚至彼此踐踏。耶穌開講,先對門徒說:「你們要防備法利賽人的酵,就是假冒為善。
1In the meantime, a crowd of many thousands had gathered, so that they were trampling one another. Jesus began to speak first to His disciples: “Beware of the leaven of the Pharisees, which is hypocrisy.
2掩蓋的事沒有不露出來的;隱藏的事沒有不被人知道的。
2There is nothing concealed that will not be disclosed, and nothing hidden that will not be made known.
3因此,你們在暗中所說的,將要在明處被人聽見;在內室附耳所說的,將要在房上被人宣揚。」
3What you have spoken in the dark will be heard in the daylight, and what you have whispered in the inner rooms will be proclaimed from the housetops.
4「我的朋友,我對你們說,那殺身體以後不能再做甚麼的,不要怕他們。
4I tell you, My friends, do not be afraid of those who kill the body and after that can do no more.
5我要指示你們當怕的是誰:當怕那殺了以後又有權柄丟在地獄裏的。我實在告訴你們,正要怕他。
5But I will show you whom you should fear: Fear the One who, after you have been killed, has authority to throw you into hell. Yes, I tell you, fear Him!
6五個麻雀不是賣二分銀子嗎?但在上帝面前,一個也不忘記;
6Are not five sparrows sold for two pennies? Yet not one of them is forgotten by God.
7就是你們的頭髮,也都被數過了。不要懼怕,你們比許多麻雀還貴重!」
7And even the very hairs of your head are all numbered. So do not be afraid; you are worth more than many sparrows.
8「我又告訴你們,凡在人面前認我的,人子在上帝的使者面前也必認他;
8I tell you, everyone who confesses Me before men, the Son of Man will also confess him before the angels of God.
9在人面前不認我的,人子在上帝的使者面前也必不認他。
9But whoever denies Me before men will be denied before the angels of God.
10凡說話干犯人子的,還可得赦免;惟獨褻瀆聖靈的,總不得赦免。
10And everyone who speaks a word against the Son of Man will be forgiven, but whoever blasphemes against the Holy Spirit will not be forgiven.
11人帶你們到會堂,並官府和有權柄的人面前,不要思慮怎麼分訴,說甚麼話;
11When you are brought before synagogues, rulers, and authorities, do not worry about how to defend yourselves or what to say.
12因為正在那時候,聖靈要指教你們當說的話。」
12For at that time the Holy Spirit will teach you what you should say.”
13眾人中有一個人對耶穌說:「夫子!請你吩咐我的兄長和我分開家業。」
13Someone in the crowd said to Him, “Teacher, tell my brother to divide the inheritance with me.”
14耶穌說:「你這個人!誰立我作你們斷事的官,給你們分家業呢?」
14But Jesus replied, “Man, who appointed Me judge or executor between you?”
15於是對眾人說:「你們要謹慎自守,免去一切的貪心,因為人的生命不在乎家道豐富。」
15And He said to them, “Watch out! Guard yourselves against every form of greed, for one’s life does not consist in the abundance of his possessions.”
16就用比喻對他們說:「有一個財主田產豐盛;
16Then He told them a parable: “The ground of a certain rich man produced an abundance.
17自己心裏思想說:『我的出產沒有地方收藏,怎麼辦呢?』
17So he thought to himself, ‘What shall I do, since I have nowhere to store my crops?’
18又說:『我要這麼辦:要把我的倉房拆了,另蓋更大的,在那裏好收藏我一切的糧食和財物,
18Then he said, ‘This is what I will do: I will tear down my barns and will build bigger ones, and there I will store up all my grain and my goods.
19然後要對我的靈魂說:靈魂哪,你有許多財物積存,可作多年的費用,只管安安逸逸地吃喝快樂吧!』
19Then I will say to myself, “You have plenty of good things laid up for many years. Take it easy. Eat, drink, and be merry!”’
20上帝卻對他說:『無知的人哪,今夜必要你的靈魂;你所預備的要歸誰呢?』
20But God said to him, ‘You fool! This very night your life will be required of you. Then who will own what you have accumulated?’
21凡為自己積財,在上帝面前卻不富足的,也是這樣。」
21This is how it will be for anyone who stores up treasure for himself but is not rich toward God.”
22耶穌又對門徒說:「所以我告訴你們,不要為生命憂慮吃甚麼,為身體憂慮穿甚麼;
22Then Jesus said to His disciples, “Therefore I tell you, do not worry about your life, what you will eat, or about your body, what you will wear.
23因為生命勝於飲食,身體勝於衣裳。
23For life is more than food, and the body more than clothes.
24你想烏鴉,也不種也不收,又沒有倉又沒有庫,上帝尚且養活牠。你們比飛鳥是何等地貴重呢!
24Consider the ravens: They do not sow or reap, they have no storehouse or barn; yet God feeds them. How much more valuable you are than the birds!
25你們哪一個能用思慮使壽數多加一刻呢?
25Who of you by worrying can add a single hour to his life?
26這最小的事,你們尚且不能做,為甚麼還憂慮其餘的事呢?
26So if you cannot do such a small thing, why do you worry about the rest?
27你想百合花怎麼長起來;它也不勞苦,也不紡線。然而我告訴你們,就是 所羅門 極榮華的時候,他所穿戴的,還不如這花一朵呢!
27Consider how the lilies grow: They do not labor or spin. Yet I tell you, not even Solomon in all his glory was adorned like one of these.
28你們這小信的人哪,野地裏的草今天還在,明天就丟在爐裏,上帝還給它這樣的妝飾,何況你們呢!
28If that is how God clothes the grass of the field, which is here today and tomorrow is thrown into the furnace, how much more will He clothe you, O you of little faith!
29你們不要求吃甚麼,喝甚麼,也不要掛心;
29And do not be concerned about what you will eat or drink. Do not worry about it.
30這都是外邦人所求的。你們必須用這些東西,你們的父是知道的。
30For the Gentiles of the world strive after all these things, and your Father knows that you need them.
31你們只要求他的國,這些東西就必加給你們了。
31But seek His kingdom, and these things will be added unto you.
32你們這小群,不要懼怕,因為你們的父樂意把國賜給你們。
32Do not be afraid, little flock, for your Father is pleased to give you the kingdom.
33你們要變賣所有的賙濟人,為自己預備永不壞的錢囊,用不盡的財寶在天上,就是賊不能近、蟲不能蛀的地方。
33Sell your possessions and give to the poor. Provide yourselves with purses that will not wear out, an inexhaustible treasure in heaven, where no thief approaches and no moth destroys.
34因為,你們的財寶在哪裏,你們的心也在那裏。」
34For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also.
35「你們腰裏要束上帶,燈也要點着,
35Be dressed for service and keep your lamps burning.
36自己好像 僕 人等候主人從婚姻的筵席上回來。他來到,叩門,就立刻給他開門。
36Then you will be like servants waiting for their master to return from the wedding banquet, so that when he comes and knocks, they can open the door for him at once.
37主人來了,看見僕人警醒,那僕人就有福了。我實在告訴你們,主人必叫他們坐席,自己束上帶,進前伺候他們。
37Blessed are those servants whom the master finds on watch when he returns. Truly I tell you, he will dress himself to serve and will have them recline at the table, and he himself will come and wait on them.
38或是二更天來,或是三更天來,看見僕人這樣,那僕人就有福了。
38Even if he comes in the second or third watch of the night and finds them alert, those servants will be blessed.
39家主若知道賊甚麼時候來,就必警醒,不容賊挖透房屋,這是你們所知道的。
39But understand this: If the homeowner had known at what hour the thief was coming, he would not have let his house be broken into.
40你們也要預備;因為你們想不到的時候,人子就來了。」
40You also must be ready, because the Son of Man will come at an hour you do not expect.”
41彼得 說:「主啊,這比喻是為我們說的呢?還是為眾人呢?」
41“Lord,” said Peter, “are You addressing this parable to us, or to everyone else as well?”
42主說:「誰是那忠心有見識的管家,主人派他管理家裏的人,按時分糧給他們呢?
42And the Lord answered, “Who then is the faithful and wise manager, whom the master puts in charge of his servants to give them their portion at the proper time?
43主人來到,看見僕人這樣行,那僕人就有福了。
43Blessed is that servant whose master finds him doing so when he returns.
44我實在告訴你們,主人要派他管理一切所有的。
44Truly I tell you, he will put him in charge of all his possessions.
45那僕人若心裏說:『我的主人必來得遲』,就動手打僕人和使女,並且吃喝醉酒;
45But suppose that servant says in his heart, ‘My master will be a long time in coming,’ and he begins to beat the menservants and maidservants, and to eat and drink and get drunk.
46在他想不到的日子,不知道的時辰,那僕人的主人要來,重重地處治他,定他和不忠心的人同罪。
46The master of that servant will come on a day he does not expect and at an hour he does not anticipate. Then he will cut him to pieces and assign him a place with the unbelievers.
47僕人知道主人的意思,卻不預備,又不順他的意思行,那僕人必多受責打;
47That servant who knows his master’s will but does not get ready or follow his instructions will be beaten with many blows.
48惟有那不知道的,做了當受責打的事,必少受責打;因為多給誰,就向誰多取;多託誰,就向誰多要。」
48But the one who unknowingly does things worthy of punishment will be beaten with few blows. From everyone who has been given much, much will be required; and from him who has been entrusted with much, even more will be demanded.
49「我來要把火丟在地上,倘若已經着起來,不也是我所願意的嗎?
49I have come to ignite a fire on the earth, and how I wish it were already kindled!
50我有當受的洗還沒有成就,我是何等地迫切呢?
50But I have a baptism to undergo, and how distressed I am until it is accomplished!
51你們以為我來,是叫地上太平嗎?我告訴你們,不是,乃是叫人紛爭。
51Do you think that I have come to bring peace to the earth? No, I tell you, but division.
52從今以後,一家五個人將要紛爭:三個人和兩個人相爭,兩個人和三個人相爭;
52From now on, five in one household will be divided, three against two and two against three.
53父親和兒子相爭, 兒子和父親相爭; 母親和女兒相爭, 女兒和母親相爭; 婆婆和媳婦相爭, 媳婦和婆婆相爭。」
53They will be divided, father against son and son against father, mother against daughter and daughter against mother, mother-in-law against daughter-in-law and daughter-in-law against mother-in-law.”
54耶穌又對眾人說:「你們看見西邊起了雲彩,就說:『要下一陣雨』;果然就有。
54Then Jesus said to the crowds, “As soon as you see a cloud rising in the west, you say, ‘A shower is coming,’ and that is what happens.
55起了南風,就說:『將要燥熱』;也就有了。
55And when the south wind blows, you say, ‘It will be hot,’ and it is.
56假冒為善的人哪,你們知道分辨天地的氣色,怎麼不知道分辨這時候呢?」
56You hypocrites! You know how to interpret the appearance of the earth and sky. Why don’t you know how to interpret the present time?
57「你們又為何不自己審量甚麼是合理的呢?
57And why don’t you judge for yourselves what is right?
58你同 告 你的對頭去見官,還在路上,務要盡力地和他了結;恐怕他拉你到官面前,官交付差役,差役把你下在監裏。
58Make every effort to reconcile with your adversary while you are on your way to the magistrate. Otherwise, he may drag you off to the judge, and the judge may hand you over to the officer, and the officer may throw you into prison.
59我告訴你,若有半文錢沒有還清,你斷不能從那裏出來。」
59I tell you, you will not get out until you have paid the very last penny.”
