馬太福音 20
Chinese Union Version, punctuated (Traditional)
Berean Standard Bible
1「因為天國好像家主清早去雇人進他的葡萄園做工，
1“For the kingdom of heaven is like a landowner who went out early in the morning to hire workers for his vineyard.
2和工人講定一天一錢銀子，就打發他們進葡萄園去。
2He agreed to pay them a denarius for the day and sent them into his vineyard.
3約在巳初出去，看見市上還有閒站的人，
3About the third hour he went out and saw others standing in the marketplace doing nothing.
4就對他們說：『你們也進葡萄園去，所當給的，我必給你們。』他們也進去了。
4‘You also go into my vineyard,’ he said, ‘and I will pay you whatever is right.’
5約在午正和申初又出去，也是這樣行。
5So they went. He went out again about the sixth hour and the ninth hour and did the same thing.
6約在酉初出去，看見還有人站在那裏，就問他們說：『你們為甚麼整天在這裏閒站呢？』
6About the eleventh hour he went out and found still others standing around. ‘Why have you been standing here all day long doing nothing?’ he asked.
7他們說：『因為沒有人雇我們。』他說：『你們也進葡萄園去。』
7‘Because no one has hired us,’ they answered. So he told them, ‘You also go into my vineyard.’
8到了晚上，園主對管事的說：『叫工人都來，給他們工錢，從後來的起，到先來的為止。』
8When evening came, the owner of the vineyard said to his foreman, ‘Call the workers and pay them their wages, starting with the last ones hired and moving on to the first.’
9約在酉初雇的人來了，各人得了一錢銀子。
9The workers who were hired about the eleventh hour came and each received a denarius.
10及至那先雇的來了，他們以為必要多得；誰知也是各得一錢。
10So when the original workers came, they assumed they would receive more. But each of them also received a denarius.
11他們得了，就埋怨家主說：
11On receiving their pay, they began to grumble against the landowner.
12『我們整天勞苦受熱，那後來的只做了一小時，你竟叫他們和我們一樣嗎？』
12‘These men who were hired last worked only one hour,’ they said, ‘and you have made them equal to us who have borne the burden and the scorching heat of the day.’
13家主回答其中的一人說：『朋友，我不虧負你，你與我講定的不是一錢銀子嗎？
13But he answered one of them, ‘Friend, I am not being unfair to you. Did you not agree with me on one denarius?
14拿你的走吧！我給那後來的和給你一樣，這是我願意的。
14Take your pay and go. I want to give this last man the same as I gave you.
15我的東西難道不可隨我的意思用嗎？因為我作好人，你就紅了眼嗎？』
15Do I not have the right to do as I please with what is mine? Or are you envious because I am generous?’
16這樣，那在後的，將要在前；在前的，將要在後了。 」
16So the last will be first, and the first will be last.”
17耶穌上 耶路撒冷 去的時候，在路上把十二個門徒帶到一邊，對他們說：
17As Jesus was going up to Jerusalem, He took the twelve disciples aside and said,
18「看哪，我們上 耶路撒冷 去，人子要被交給祭司長和文士。他們要定他死罪，
18“Look, we are going up to Jerusalem, and the Son of Man will be delivered over to the chief priests and scribes. They will condemn Him to death
19又交給外邦人，將他戲弄，鞭打，釘在十字架上；第三日他要復活。」
19and will deliver Him over to the Gentiles to be mocked and flogged and crucified. And on the third day He will be raised to life.”
20那時， 西庇太 兒子的母親同她兩個兒子上前來拜耶穌，求他一件事。
20Then the mother of Zebedee’s sons came to Jesus with her sons and knelt down to make a request of Him.
21耶穌說：「你要甚麼呢？」她說：「願你叫我這兩個兒子在你國裏，一個坐在你右邊，一個坐在你左邊。」
21“What do you want?” He inquired. She answered, “Declare that in Your kingdom one of these two sons of mine may sit at Your right hand, and the other at Your left.”
22耶穌回答說：「你們不知道所求的是甚麼；我將要喝的杯，你們能喝嗎？」他們說：「我們能。」
22“You do not know what you are asking,” Jesus replied. “Can you drink the cup I am going to drink?” “We can,” the brothers answered.
23耶穌說：「我所喝的杯，你們必要喝；只是坐在我的左右，不是我可以賜的，乃是我父為誰預備的，就賜給誰。」
23“You will indeed drink My cup,” Jesus said. “But to sit at My right or left is not Mine to grant. These seats belong to those for whom My Father has prepared them.”
24那十個門徒聽見，就惱怒他們弟兄二人。
24When the ten heard about this, they were indignant with the two brothers.
25耶穌叫了他們來，說：「你們知道外邦人有君王為主治理他們，有大臣操權管束他們。
25But Jesus called them aside and said, “You know that the rulers of the Gentiles lord it over them, and their superiors exercise authority over them.
26只是在你們中間，不可這樣；你們中間誰願為大，就必作你們的用人；
26It shall not be this way among you. Instead, whoever wants to become great among you must be your servant,
27誰願為首，就必作你們的僕人。
27and whoever wants to be first among you must be your slave—
28正如人子來，不是要受人的服事，乃是要服事人，並且要捨命，作多人的贖價。」
28just as the Son of Man did not come to be served, but to serve, and to give His life as a ransom for many.”
29他們出 耶利哥 的時候，有極多的人跟隨他。
29As they were leaving Jericho, a large crowd followed Him.
30有兩個瞎子坐在路旁，聽說是耶穌經過，就喊着說：「主啊， 大衛 的子孫，可憐我們吧！」
30And there were two blind men sitting beside the road. When they heard that Jesus was passing by, they cried out, “Lord, Son of David, have mercy on us!”
31眾人責備他們，不許他們作聲；他們卻越發喊着說：「主啊， 大衛 的子孫，可憐我們吧！」
31The crowd admonished them to be silent, but they cried out all the louder, “Lord, Son of David, have mercy on us!”
32耶穌就站住，叫他們來，說：「要我為你們做甚麼？」
32Jesus stopped and called them. “What do you want Me to do for you?” He asked.
33他們說：「主啊，要我們的眼睛能看見！」
33“Lord,” they answered, “let our eyes be opened.”
34耶穌就動了慈心，把他們的眼睛一摸，他們立刻看見，就跟從了耶穌。
34Moved with compassion, Jesus touched their eyes, and at once they received their sight and followed Him.
