在安息日摘麦穗
(可2.23-28;路6.1-5)
那时,耶稣在安息日从麦田经过。他的门徒饿了,就摘麦穗来吃。
At that time Jesus went on the sabbath day through the corn; and his disciples were an hungred, and began to pluck the ears of corn, and to eat.
2法利赛人看见,对耶稣说:“看哪,你的门徒在安息日做不合法的事了。”But when the Pharisees saw it, they said unto him, Behold, thy disciples do that which is not lawful to do upon the sabbath day.
3耶稣对他们说:“大卫和跟从他的人饥饿时所做的事,你们没有念过吗?But he said unto them, Have ye not read what David did, when he was an hungred, and they that were with him;
4他怎么进了神的居所,吃了供饼呢?这饼是他和跟从他的人不可以吃的,惟独祭司才可以吃。How he entered into the house of God, and did eat the shewbread, which was not lawful for him to eat, neither for them which were with him, but only for the priests?
5再者,律法上所记的,在安息日,祭司在圣殿里犯了安息日也不算有罪,你们没有念过吗?Or have ye not read in the law, how that on the sabbath days the priests in the temple profane the sabbath, and are blameless?
6但我告诉你们,比圣殿更大的在这里。But I say unto you, That in this place is one greater than the temple.
7‘我喜爱怜悯,不喜爱祭祀。’你们若明白这话的意思,就不将无罪的当作有罪了。But if ye had known what this meaneth, I will have mercy, and not sacrifice, ye would not have condemned the guiltless.
8因为人子是安息日的主。”治好萎缩了的手
(可3.1-6;路6.6-11)
For the Son of man is Lord even of the sabbath day.
9耶稣离开那地方,进了犹太人的会堂;And when he was departed thence, he went into their synagogue:
10那里有个一只手萎缩了的人。有人为了要控告耶稣,就问他:“安息日治病合不合法?”And, behold, there was a man which had his hand withered. And they asked him, saying, Is it lawful to heal on the sabbath days? that they might accuse him.
11耶稣对他们说:“你们中间谁有一只羊在安息日掉在坑里,不抓住它,把它拉上来呢?And he said unto them, What man shall there be among you, that shall have one sheep, and if it fall into a pit on the sabbath day, will he not lay hold on it, and lift it out?
12人比羊贵重得多了!所以,在安息日做善事是合法的。”How much then is a man better than a sheep? Wherefore it is lawful to do well on the sabbath days.
13于是对那人说:“伸出手来!”他把手一伸,手就复原了,和另一只一样。Then saith he to the man, Stretch forth thine hand. And he stretched it forth; and it was restored whole, like as the other.
14法利赛人出去,商议怎样除掉耶稣。神所拣选的仆人
Then the Pharisees went out, and held a council against him, how they might destroy him.
15耶稣知道了,就离开那里,有一大群人跟着他。他把所有的病人都治好了,But when Jesus knew it, he withdrew himself from thence: and great multitudes followed him, and he healed them all;
16又嘱咐他们不要把他宣扬出去。And charged them that they should not make him known:
17这是要应验以赛亚先知所说的话:That it might be fulfilled which was spoken by Esaias the prophet, saying,
18“看哪,我所拣选的仆人, 我所亲爱,心所喜悦的; 我要将我的灵赐给他, 他必将公理传给外邦。Behold my servant, whom I have chosen; my beloved, in whom my soul is well pleased: I will put my spirit upon him, and he shall shew judgment to the Gentiles.
19他不争吵,不喧嚷, 街上也没有人听见他的声音。He shall not strive, nor cry; neither shall any man hear his voice in the streets.
20压伤的芦苇,他不折断, 将残的灯火,他不吹灭, 直到他使公理得胜。A bruised reed shall he not break, and smoking flax shall he not quench, till he send forth judgment unto victory.
21外邦人都要仰望他的名。”诬蔑耶稣为别西卜
(可3.20-30;路11.14-23;12.10)
And in his name shall the Gentiles trust.
22当时,有人把一个被鬼附,又盲又哑的人带到耶稣那里,耶稣医治他,那哑巴就能说话,又能看见。Then was brought unto him one possessed with a devil, blind, and dumb: and he healed him, insomuch that the blind and dumb both spake and saw.
23众人都惊奇,说:“这不是大卫之子吗?”And all the people were amazed, and said, Is not this the son of David?
24但法利赛人听见,就说:“这个人赶鬼,无非是靠着鬼王别西卜罢了。”But when the Pharisees heard it, they said, This fellow doth not cast out devils, but by Beelzebub the prince of the devils.
25耶稣知道他们的心思,就对他们说:“一国自相纷争,必定荒芜;一城一家自相纷争,必立不住。And Jesus knew their thoughts, and said unto them, Every kingdom divided against itself is brought to desolation; and every city or house divided against itself shall not stand:
26若撒但赶出撒但,就是自相纷争,他的国怎能立得住呢?And if Satan cast out Satan, he is divided against himself; how shall then his kingdom stand?
27我若靠着别西卜赶鬼,你们的子弟赶鬼又靠着谁呢?这样,他们要作你们的判官。And if I by Beelzebub cast out devils, by whom do your children cast them out? therefore they shall be your judges.
28我若靠着神的灵赶鬼,那么,神的国就已临到你们了。But if I cast out devils by the Spirit of God, then the kingdom of God is come unto you.
29人怎能进壮士家里抢夺他的东西呢?除非先绑住那壮士,否则无法抢夺他的家。Or else how can one enter into a strong man's house, and spoil his goods, except he first bind the strong man? and then he will spoil his house.
30不跟我一起的,就是反对我;不与我一起收聚的,就是在拆散。He that is not with me is against me; and he that gathereth not with me scattereth abroad.
31所以我告诉你们,人一切的罪和亵渎的话都可得赦免,但是亵渎圣灵,总不得赦免。Wherefore I say unto you, All manner of sin and blasphemy shall be forgiven unto men: but the blasphemy against the Holy Ghost shall not be forgiven unto men.
32凡说话干犯人子的,还可得赦免;但是说话干犯圣灵的,今世来世总不得赦免。”树和果子
(路6.43-45)
And whosoever speaketh a word against the Son of man, it shall be forgiven him: but whosoever speaketh against the Holy Ghost, it shall not be forgiven him, neither in this world, neither in the world to come.
33“你们知道树好,果子也好;又知道树坏,果子也坏;因为看果子就可以知道树。Either make the tree good, and his fruit good; or else make the tree corrupt, and his fruit corrupt: for the tree is known by his fruit.
34毒蛇的孽种啊,你们既是恶人,怎能说出好话来呢?因为心里所充满的,口里就说出来。O generation of vipers, how can ye, being evil, speak good things? for out of the abundance of the heart the mouth speaketh.
35善人从他所存的善发出善来;恶人从他所存的恶发出恶来。A good man out of the good treasure of the heart bringeth forth good things: and an evil man out of the evil treasure bringeth forth evil things.
36我告诉你们,凡是人所说的闲话,在审判的日子,要句句供出来;But I say unto you, That every idle word that men shall speak, they shall give account thereof in the day of judgment.
37因为要凭你的话定你为义,也要凭你的话定你有罪。”求神迹
(可8.11-12;路11.29-32)
For by thy words thou shalt be justified, and by thy words thou shalt be condemned.
38当时,有几个文士和法利赛人对耶稣说:“老师,我们想请你显个神迹给我们看看。”Then certain of the scribes and of the Pharisees answered, saying, Master, we would see a sign from thee.
39耶稣回答他们:“邪恶淫乱的世代求看神迹,除了先知约拿的神迹以外,再没有神迹给他们看了。But he answered and said unto them, An evil and adulterous generation seeketh after a sign; and there shall no sign be given to it, but the sign of the prophet Jonas:
40约拿三日三夜在大鱼肚腹中,同样,人子也要三日三夜在地里面。For as Jonas was three days and three nights in the whale's belly; so shall the Son of man be three days and three nights in the heart of the earth.
41在审判的时候,尼尼微人要起来定这世代的罪,因为尼尼微人听了约拿所传的就悔改了。看哪,比约拿更大的在这里!The men of Nineveh shall rise in judgment with this generation, and shall condemn it: because they repented at the preaching of Jonas; and, behold, a greater than Jonas is here.
42在审判的时候,南方的女王要起来定这世代的罪,因为她从地极而来,要听所罗门智慧的话。看哪,比所罗门更大的在这里!”污灵回来
(路11.24-26)
The queen of the south shall rise up in the judgment with this generation, and shall condemn it: for she came from the uttermost parts of the earth to hear the wisdom of Solomon; and, behold, a greater than Solomon is here.
43“污灵离了人身,走遍无水之地寻找安歇之处,却找不到。When the unclean spirit is gone out of a man, he walketh through dry places, seeking rest, and findeth none.
44于是他说:‘我要回到我原来的屋里去。’他到了,看见里面空着,打扫干净,修饰好了,Then he saith, I will return into my house from whence I came out; and when he is come, he findeth it empty, swept, and garnished.
45就去另带了七个比自己更恶的灵来,都进去住在那里。那人后来的景况比先前更坏了。这邪恶的世代也要如此。”遵父旨意的人都是亲属
(可3.31-35;路8.19-21)
Then goeth he, and taketh with himself seven other spirits more wicked than himself, and they enter in and dwell there: and the last state of that man is worse than the first. Even so shall it be also unto this wicked generation.
46耶稣还在对众人说话的时候,不料,他母亲和他兄弟站在外边想要跟他说话。While he yet talked to the people, behold, his mother and his brethren stood without, desiring to speak with him.
47有人告诉他:“看哪!你母亲和你兄弟站在外边,想要跟你说话。”☛有古卷没有47节。Then one said unto him, Behold, thy mother and thy brethren stand without, desiring to speak with thee.
48他却回答那对他说话的人,说:“谁是我的母亲?谁是我的兄弟?”But he answered and said unto him that told him, Who is my mother? and who are my brethren?
49于是他伸手指着门徒,说:“看哪,我的母亲,我的兄弟!And he stretched forth his hand toward his disciples, and said, Behold my mother and my brethren!
50凡遵行我天父旨意的人就是我的兄弟、姊妹和母亲。”For whosoever shall do the will of my Father which is in heaven, the same is my brother, and sister, and mother.
