Chinese Union Version, punctuated (Traditional)
1Christ therefore having suffered in the flesh, be you also armed with the same thought: for he that hath suffered in the flesh, hath ceased from sins:
1基督既在肉身受苦，你們也當將這樣的心志作為兵器，因為在肉身受過苦的，就已經與罪斷絕了。
2That now he may live the rest of his time in the flesh, not after the desires of men, but according to the will of God.
2你們存這樣的心，從今以後就可以不從人的情慾，只從上帝的旨意在世度餘下的光陰。
3For the time past is sufficient to have fulfilled the will of the Gentiles, for them who have walked in riotousness, lusts, excess of wine, revellings, banquetings, and unlawful worshipping of idols.
3因為往日隨從外邦人的心意行邪淫、惡慾、醉酒、荒宴、群飲，並可惡拜偶像的事，時候已經夠了。
4Wherein they think it strange, that you run not with them into the same confusion of riotousness, speaking evil of you.
4他們在這些事上，見你們不與他們同奔那放蕩無度的路，就以為怪，毀謗你們。
5Who shall render account to him, who is ready to judge the living and the dead.
5他們必在那將要審判活人死人的主面前交帳。
6For, for this cause was the gospel preached also to the dead: that they might be judged indeed according to men, in the flesh; but may live according to God, in the Spirit.
6為此，就是死人也曾有福音傳給他們，要叫他們的肉體按着人受審判，他們的靈性卻靠上帝活着。
7But the end of all is at hand. Be prudent therefore, and watch in prayers.
7萬物的結局近了。所以，你們要謹慎自守，警醒禱告。
8But before all things have a constant mutual charity among yourselves: for charity covereth a multitude of sins.
8最要緊的是彼此切實相愛，因為愛能遮掩許多的罪。
9Using hospitality one towards another, without murmuring,
9你們要互相款待，不發怨言。
10As every man hath received grace, ministering the same one to another: as good stewards of the manifold grace of God.
10各人要照所得的恩賜彼此服事，作上帝百般恩賜的好管家。
11If any man speak, let him speak, as the words of God. If any man minister, let him do it, as of the power, which God administereth: that in all things God may be honoured through Jesus Christ: to whom is glory and empire for ever and ever. Amen.
11若有講道的，要按着上帝的聖言講；若有服事 人 的，要按着上帝所賜的力量服事，叫上帝在凡事上因耶穌基督得榮耀。 原來 榮耀、權能都是他的，直到永永遠遠。阿們！
12Dearly beloved, think not strange the burning heat which is to try you, as if some new thing happened to you;
12親愛的 弟兄 啊，有火煉的試驗臨到你們，不要以為奇怪（似乎是遭遇非常的事），
13But if you partake of the sufferings of Christ, rejoice that when his glory shall be revealed, you may also be glad with exceeding joy.
13倒要歡喜；因為你們是與基督一同受苦，使你們在他榮耀顯現的時候，也可以歡喜快樂。
14If you be reproached for the name of Christ, you shall be blessed: for that which is of the honour, glory, and power of God, and that which is his Spirit, resteth upon you.
14你們若為基督的名受辱罵，便是有福的；因為上帝榮耀的靈常住在你們身上。
15But let none of you suffer as a murderer, or a thief, or a railer, or a coveter of other men’s things.
15你們中間卻不可有人因為殺人、偷竊、作惡、好管閒事而受苦。
16But if as a Christian, let him not be ashamed, but let him glorify God in that name.
16若為作基督徒受苦，卻不要羞恥，倒要因這名歸榮耀給上帝。
17For the time is, that judgment should begin at the house of God. And if first at us, what shall be the end of them that believe not the gospel of God?
17因為時候到了，審判要從上帝的家起首。若是先從我們起首，那不信從上帝福音的人將有何等的結局呢？
18And if the just man shall scarcely be saved, where shall the ungodly and the sinner appear?
18若是義人僅僅得救，那不虔敬和犯罪的人將有何地可站呢？
19Wherefore let them also that suffer according to the will of God, commend their souls in good deeds to the faithful Creator.
19所以，那照上帝旨意受苦的人要一心為善，將自己靈魂交與那信實的造化之主。
