路加福音

第12章

1 這時,有無數的[innumerable]人聚集,甚至彼此踐踏,耶穌開講,先對他的[his]門徒說:「你們要防備法利賽人的酵,就是偽善[hypocrisy]

2 掩蓋的事沒有不露出來的;隱藏的事,[neither]沒有不被人知道的。

3 因此,你們在暗中所說的,將要在明處被人聽見;你們[ye]在內室附耳所說的,將要在房上被人宣揚。」

4 「我的朋友,我對你們說:『那殺身體以後不能再作甚麼的,不要怕他們。』

5 只是[But]我要先警戒[forewarn]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。』

6 五個麻雀不是賣二分銀子,但在神面前,一個也不忘記嗎?

7 然而[But],就是你們的頭髮,也都被數過了。所以[therefore],不要懼怕。你們比許多麻雀還貴重。」

8 「我又告訴你們:『凡在人面前認我的,人子在神的天使[angels]面前也必認他;

9 唯獨[But]在人面前不認我的,在神的天使[before the angels of God]面前也必不認他。』

10 凡說話干犯人子的,還可得饒恕[forgiven];唯獨褻瀆聖靈的,總不得饒恕[forgiven]

11 人帶你們到會堂,並官長[magistrates]和有權柄的人面前,不要思慮怎麼分訴,說甚麼話;

12 因為正在那時候,聖靈要指教你們當說的話。」

13 眾人中有一個人對耶穌說:「夫子,請你告訴[speak to]我的兄長,叫他[that he]和我分開家業。」

14 耶穌對他[unto him]說:「你這個人,誰立我作你們斷事的官,[or]給你們作分家業的[divider]呢?」

15 於是耶穌[he]對眾人說:「務要謹慎[Take heed]防備[beware of]貪心;因為人的生命不在乎家道豐富。」

16 [he]就用比喻對他們說:「有一個財主田產豐盛;

17 自己心裏思想說:『我的出產沒有地方收藏,怎麼辦呢?』

18 [he]說:『我要這麼辦:要把我的倉房拆了,另蓋更大的;在那裏[I]好收藏我一切的出產[fruits]和財物。

19 然後[I]要對我的元魂[soul]說:元魂[soul]哪,你有許多財物積存,可作多年的費用;[thine]只管安安逸逸的吃喝快樂吧。』

20 神卻對他說:『你這[Thou]無知的人哪,[this]夜必要你的元魂[soul];你所預備的要歸誰呢?』

21 凡為自己積財,在神面前卻不富足的,也是這樣。」

22 耶穌又對他的[his]門徒說:「所以我告訴你們:『不要為生命憂慮吃甚麼;也不要[neither]為身體憂慮穿甚麼。

23 生命甚於[life is more than]飲食,身體甚於[more than]衣服。』

24 你想烏鴉。烏鴉本[for they]不種也不收;又沒有倉又沒有庫;神尚且養活牠們[them]。你們比飛鳥是何等的貴重呢?

25 你們那一個能用思慮使身量多加一肘呢[add to his stature one cubit]

26 這最小的事,你們尚且不能作,為甚麼還憂慮其餘的事呢?

27 你想百合花怎麼長起來:它們[they]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,還不如這些[these][of]一朵呢。

28 你們這小信的人哪,若是[If]野地裏的草今天還在,明天就丟在爐裏,神還給它這樣的妝飾;何況妝飾[clothe]你們呢?

29 你們不要求吃甚麼,[or]喝甚麼,也不要掛心。

30 這些[these]都是世上列國[nations of the world]所求的;們必須用這些東西,你們的父是知道的。

31 你們只要求[God]的國;這些東西[all]必加給你們了。

32 你們這小群,不要懼怕;因為你們的父樂意把國賜給你們。

33 你們要變賣所有的賙濟人,為自己預備永不壞的口袋[bags],用不盡的財寶在諸天[heavens],就是賊不能近、蟲不能蛀的地方。

34 因為,你們的財寶在哪裏,你們的心也在那裏。」

35 「你們腰間[about]要束上帶,你們的光[your lights]也要[burning]著;

36 你們[ye]自己好像僕人等候主人從婚筵[wedding]上回來;他來到,叩門,就立刻給他開門。

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,主人必自己束上帶[gird himself]叫他們坐席[make them to sit down to meat],進前伺候他們。

38 若是他[if he]第二更[second watch]來,或是第三更[third watch]來,看見僕人這樣,那僕人就有福了。

39 家主若知道賊甚麼時候[would]來,就必警醒,不容賊挖透房屋,這是你們所知道的。

40 所以[therefore]你們也要預備;因為你們想不到的時候,人子就來了。」

41 那時[Then],彼得對他[unto him]說:「主啊,[thou]這比喻是為我們說的呢?還是為眾人呢?」

42 主說:「誰是那忠心有智慧[wise]的管家,[his]主人派他管理主人[his]家裏的人,按時分糧給他們呢?

43 他的[his]主人來到,看見僕人這樣行,那僕人就有福了。

44 我實在告訴你們,主人要派他管理一切所有的。

45 [But]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;

46 在他不昐望他[looketh not for him]的日子,不知不覺[not aware]的時辰,那僕人的主人要來,把他腰斬[cut him in sunder]又要[and will]定他和不信[unbelievers]的人同罪。

47 [that]僕人知道[his]主人的意思,自己[himself]卻不預備,又不順他的意思行,[shall]多受責打。

48 唯有那不知道的,犯了[did commit]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。」

49 「我來要把火[send]在地上;倘若已經著起來,這是我何其願意的呢[what will I]

50 [But]我有當受的浸還沒有成就;我是何等的迫切呢。

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。

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。

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。』」

54 耶穌又對百姓[people]說:「你們[straightway]看見雲彩自西邊起[cloud rise out of the west],就說:『要下一陣雨;』果然就有。

55 你們看見[ye see]起了南風,就說:『將要炎熱[heat];』也就有了。

56 你們這些偽善之人[Ye hypocrites],你們知道分辨天地的氣色,怎麼不知道分辨這時候呢?」

57 「你們又為何不自己審量甚麼是合理的呢?

58 你同告你的對頭去見官,當趁你[as thou art]還在路上,務要盡力的脫離他[delivered from him];恐怕他拉你到官面前,官將你[thee]交付差役,差役把你下在監裏。

59 我告訴你,[thou]若有半文錢沒有還清,你不可離開那裏去[thou shalt not depart thence] 。」

Luke

Chapter 12

1 In the mean time,1722 3739 when there were gathered together1996 an innumerable multitude3461 of people,3793 insomuch that5620 they trod2662 one upon another,240 he began756 to say3004 unto4314 his848 disciples3101 first of all,4412 Beware4337 ye1438 of575 the3588 leaven2219 of the3588 Pharisees,5330 which3748 is2076 hypocrisy.5272

2 For1161 there is2076 nothing3762 covered,4780 that3739 shall not3756 be revealed;601 neither2532 hid,2927 that3739 shall not3756 be known.1097

3 Therefore473 3739 whatsoever3745 ye have spoken2036 in1722 darkness4653 shall be heard191 in1722 the3588 light;5457 and2532 that which3739 ye have spoken2980 in4314 the3588 ear3775 in1722 closets5009 shall be proclaimed2784 upon1909 the3588 housetops.1430

4 And1161 I say3004 unto you5213 my3450 friends,5384 Be not afraid5399 3361 of575 them that kill615 the3588 body,4983 and2532 after3326 that5023 have2192 no3361 more5100 4055 that they can do.4160

5 But1161 I will forewarn5263 you5213 whom5101 ye shall fear: 5399 Fear5399 him, which after he hath killed615 hath2192 power1849 to cast1685 into1519 hell;1067 yea,3483 I say3004 unto you,5213 Fear5399 him.5126

6 Are not3780 five4002 sparrows4765 sold4453 for two1417 farthings,787 and2532 not3756 one1520 of1537 them846 is2076 forgotten1950 before1799 God?2316

7 But235 even2532 the3588 very hairs2359 of your5216 head2776 are all3956 numbered.705 Fear5399 not3361 therefore: 3767 ye are of more value1308 than many4183 sparrows.4765

8 Also1161 I say3004 unto you,5213 Whosoever3956 3739 302 shall confess3670 me1698 before1715 men,444 1722 him846 shall the3588 Son5207 of man444 also2532 confess3670 before1715 the3588 angels32 of God: 2316

9 But1161 he that denieth720 me3165 before1799 men444 shall be denied533 before1799 the3588 angels32 of God.2316

10 And2532 whosoever3956 3739 shall speak2046 a word3056 against1519 the3588 Son5207 of man,444 it shall be forgiven863 him: 846 but1161 unto him that blasphemeth987 against1519 the3588 Holy40 Ghost4151 it shall not3756 be forgiven.863

11 And1161 when3752 they bring4374 you5209 unto1909 the3588 synagogues,4864 and2532 unto magistrates,746 and2532 powers,1849 take ye no thought3309 3361 how4459 or2228 what thing5101 ye shall answer,626 or2228 what5101 ye shall say: 2036

12 For1063 the3588 Holy40 Ghost4151 shall teach1321 you5209 in1722 the3588 same846 hour5610 what3739 ye ought1163 to say.2036

13 And1161 one5100 of1537 the3588 company3793 said2036 unto him,846 Master,1320 speak2036 to my3450 brother,80 that he divide3307 the3588 inheritance2817 with3326 me.1700

14 And1161 he3588 said2036 unto him,846 Man,444 who5101 made2525 me3165 a judge1348 or2228 a divider3312 over1909 you?5209

15 And1161 he said2036 unto4314 them,846 Take heed,3708 and2532 beware5442 of575 covetousness: 4124 for3754 a man's5100 life2222 consisteth2076 not3756 in the abundance4052 of1537 the things which he possesseth.5224 846

16 And1161 he spake2036 a parable3850 unto4314 them,846 saying,3004 The3588 ground5561 of a certain5100 rich4145 man444 brought forth plentifully: 2164

17 And2532 he thought1260 within1722 himself,1438 saying,3004 What5101 shall I do,4160 because3754 I have2192 no3756 room where4226 to bestow4863 my3450 fruits?2590

18 And2532 he said,2036 This5124 will I do: 4160 I will pull down2507 my3450 barns,596 and2532 build3618 greater;3187 and2532 there1563 will I bestow4863 all3956 my3450 fruits1081 and2532 my3450 goods.18

19 And2532 I will say2046 to my3450 soul,5590 Soul,5590 thou hast2192 much4183 goods18 laid up2749 for1519 many4183 years;2094 take thine ease,373 eat,5315 drink,4095 and be merry.2165

20 But1161 God2316 said2036 unto him,846 Thou fool,878 this5026 night3571 thy4675 soul5590 shall be required523 of575 thee: 4675 then1161 whose5101 shall those things3739 be,2071 which thou hast provided?2090

21 So3779 is he3588 that layeth up treasure2343 for himself,1438 and2532 is not rich4147 3361 toward1519 God.2316

22 And1161 he said2036 unto4314 his848 disciples,3101 Therefore1223 5124 I say3004 unto you,5213 Take no thought3309 3361 for your5216 life,5590 what5101 ye shall eat;5315 neither3366 for the3588 body,4983 what5101 ye shall put on.1746

23 The3588 life5590 is2076 more4119 than meat,5160 and2532 the3588 body4983 is more than raiment.1742

24 Consider2657 the3588 ravens: 2876 for3754 they neither3756 sow4687 nor3761 reap;2325 which3739 neither3756 have2076 storehouse5009 nor3761 barn;596 and2532 God2316 feedeth5142 them: 846 how much4214 more3123 are ye better1308 5210 than the3588 fowls?4071

25 And1161 which5101 of1537 you5216 with taking thought3309 can1410 add4369 to1909 his848 stature2244 one1520 cubit?4083

26 If1487 ye then3767 be not able1410 3777 to do that thing which is least,1646 why5101 take ye thought3309 for4012 the3588 rest?3062

27 Consider2657 the3588 lilies2918 how4459 they grow: 837 they toil2872 not,3756 they spin3514 not;3761 and1161 yet I say3004 unto you,5213 that Solomon4672 in1722 all3956 his848 glory1391 was not3761 arrayed4016 like5613 one1520 of these.5130

28 1161 If1487 then God2316 so3779 clothe294 the3588 grass,5528 which is5607 today4594 in1722 the3588 field,68 and2532 tomorrow839 is cast906 into1519 the oven;2823 how much4214 more3123 will he clothe you,5209 O ye of little faith?3640

29 And2532 seek2212 not3361 ye5210 what5101 ye shall eat,5315 or2228 what5101 ye shall drink,4095 neither2532 3361 be ye of doubtful mind.3349

30 For1063 all3956 these things5023 do the3588 nations1484 of the3588 world2889 seek after: 1934 and1161 your5216 Father3962 knoweth1492 that3754 ye have need5535 of these things.5130

31 But4133 rather seek2212 ye the3588 kingdom932 of God;2316 and2532 all3956 these things5023 shall be added4369 unto you.5213

32 Fear5399 not,3361 little3398 flock;4168 for3754 it is your Father's good pleasure2106 5216 3962 to give1325 you5213 the3588 kingdom.932

33 Sell4453 that ye have,5216 5224 and2532 give1325 alms;1654 provide4160 yourselves1438 bags905 which wax not old,3822 3361 a treasure2344 in1722 the3588 heavens3772 that faileth not,413 where3699 no3756 thief2812 approacheth,1448 neither3761 moth4597 corrupteth.1311

34 For1063 where3699 your5216 treasure2344 is,2076 there1563 will your5216 heart2588 be2071 also.2532

35 Let your5216 loins3751 be2077 girded about,4024 and2532 your lights3088 burning;2545

36 And2532 ye yourselves5210 like unto3664 men444 that wait for4327 their1438 lord,2962 when4219 he will return360 from1537 the3588 wedding;1062 that2443 when he cometh2064 and2532 knocketh,2925 they may open455 unto him846 immediately.2112

37 Blessed3107 are those1565 servants,1401 whom3739 the3588 lord2962 when he cometh2064 shall find2147 watching: 1127 verily281 I say3004 unto you,5213 that3754 he shall gird4024 himself, and2532 make them846 to sit down to meat,347 and2532 will come forth3928 and serve1247 them.846

38 And2532 if1437 he shall come2064 in1722 the3588 second1208 watch,5438 or2532 come2064 in1722 the3588 third5154 watch,5438 and2532 find2147 them so,3779 blessed3107 are1526 those1565 servants.1401

39 And1161 this5124 know,1097 that3754 if1487 the3588 goodman of the house3617 had known1492 what4169 hour5610 the3588 thief2812 would come,2064 he would have watched,1127 302 and2532 not3756 have suffered863 302 his848 house3624 to be broken through.1358

40 Be1096 ye5210 therefore3767 ready2092 also: 2532 for3754 the3588 Son5207 of man444 cometh2064 at3739 an hour5610 when ye think1380 not.3756

41 Then1161 Peter4074 said2036 unto him,846 Lord,2962 speakest3004 thou this5026 parable3850 unto4314 us,2248 or2228 even2532 to4314 all?3956

42 And1161 the3588 Lord2962 said,2036 Who5101 then686 is2076 that faithful4103 and2532 wise5429 steward,3623 whom3739 his lord2962 shall make ruler2525 over1909 his848 household,2322 to give1325 them their portion of meat4620 in1722 due season?2540

43 Blessed3107 is that1565 servant,1401 whom3739 his846 lord2962 when he cometh2064 shall find2147 so3779 doing.4160

44 Of a truth230 I say3004 unto you,5213 that3754 he will make him ruler2525 846 over1909 all3956 that he hath.5224 848

45 But1161 and if1437 that1565 servant1401 say2036 in1722 his848 heart,2588 My3450 lord2962 delayeth5549 his coming;2064 and2532 shall begin756 to beat5180 the3588 menservants3816 and2532 maidens,3814 and5037 to eat2068 and2532 drink,4095 and2532 to be drunken;3182

46 The3588 lord2962 of that1565 servant1401 will come2240 in1722 a day2250 when3739 he looketh not for4328 3756 him, and2532 at1722 an hour5610 when3739 he is not aware,1097 3756 and2532 will cut him in sunder,1371 846 and2532 will appoint5087 him846 his portion3313 with3326 the3588 unbelievers.571

47 And1161 that1565 servant,1401 which knew1097 his1438 lord's2962 will,2307 and2532 prepared2090 not3361 himself, neither3366 did4160 according to4314 his846 will,2307 shall be beaten1194 with many4183 stripes.

48 But1161 he that knew1097 not,3361 and1161 did commit4160 things worthy514 of stripes,4127 shall be beaten1194 with few3641 stripes. For1161 unto whomsoever3956 3739 much4183 is given,1325 of3844 him846 shall be much4183 required: 2212 and2532 to whom3739 men have committed3908 much,4183 of him846 they will ask154 the more.4055

49 I am come2064 to send906 fire4442 on1519 the3588 earth;1093 and2532 what5101 will2309 I, if1487 it be already2235 kindled?381

50 But1161 I have2192 a baptism908 to be baptized907 with; and2532 how4459 am I straitened4912 till2193 it3739 be accomplished!5055

51 Suppose1380 ye that3754 I am come3854 to give1325 peace1515 on1722 earth?1093 I tell3004 you,5213 Nay;3780 but235 rather2228 division: 1267

52 For1063 from575 henceforth3568 there shall be2071 five4002 in1722 one1520 house3624 divided,1266 three5140 against1909 two,1417 and2532 two1417 against1909 three.5140

53 The father3962 shall be divided1266 against1909 the son,5207 and2532 the son5207 against1909 the father;3962 the mother3384 against1909 the daughter,2364 and2532 the daughter2364 against1909 the mother;3384 the mother in law3994 against1909 her848 daughter in law,3565 and2532 the daughter in law3565 against1909 her848 mother in law.3994

54 And1161 he said3004 also2532 to the3588 people,3793 When3752 ye see1492 a cloud3507 rise393 out of575 the west,1424 straightway2112 ye say,3004 There cometh2064 a shower;3655 and2543 so3779 it is.1096

55 And2532 when3752 ye see the south wind3558 blow,4154 ye say,3004 There will be2071 heat;2742 and2532 it cometh to pass.1096

56 Ye hypocrites,5273 ye can1492 discern1381 the3588 face4383 of the3588 sky3772 and2532 of the3588 earth;1093 but1161 how4459 is it that ye do not3756 discern1381 this5126 time?2540

57 Yea, and1161 why5101 even2532 of575 yourselves1438 judge2919 ye not3756 what is right?1342

58 1161 When5613 thou goest5217 with3326 thine4675 adversary476 to1909 the magistrate,758 as thou art in1722 the3588 way,3598 give1325 diligence2039 that thou mayest be delivered525 from575 him;846 lest3379 he hale2694 thee4571 to4314 the3588 judge,2923 and2532 the3588 judge2923 deliver3860 thee4571 to the3588 officer,4233 and2532 the3588 officer4233 cast906 thee4571 into1519 prison.5438

59 I tell3004 thee,4671 thou shalt not3364 depart1831 thence,1564 till2193 3757 thou hast paid591 the3588 very2532 last2078 mite.3016

Chapter 12

1 這時,有無數的[innumerable]人聚集,甚至彼此踐踏,耶穌開講,先對他的[his]門徒說:「你們要防備法利賽人的酵,就是偽善[hypocrisy]

1 In the mean time,1722 3739 when there were gathered together1996 an innumerable multitude3461 of people,3793 insomuch that5620 they trod2662 one upon another,240 he began756 to say3004 unto4314 his848 disciples3101 first of all,4412 Beware4337 ye1438 of575 the3588 leaven2219 of the3588 Pharisees,5330 which3748 is2076 hypocrisy.5272

2 掩蓋的事沒有不露出來的;隱藏的事,[neither]沒有不被人知道的。

2 For1161 there is2076 nothing3762 covered,4780 that3739 shall not3756 be revealed;601 neither2532 hid,2927 that3739 shall not3756 be known.1097

3 因此,你們在暗中所說的,將要在明處被人聽見;你們[ye]在內室附耳所說的,將要在房上被人宣揚。」

3 Therefore473 3739 whatsoever3745 ye have spoken2036 in1722 darkness4653 shall be heard191 in1722 the3588 light;5457 and2532 that which3739 ye have spoken2980 in4314 the3588 ear3775 in1722 closets5009 shall be proclaimed2784 upon1909 the3588 housetops.1430

4 「我的朋友,我對你們說:『那殺身體以後不能再作甚麼的,不要怕他們。』

4 And1161 I say3004 unto you5213 my3450 friends,5384 Be not afraid5399 3361 of575 them that kill615 the3588 body,4983 and2532 after3326 that5023 have2192 no3361 more5100 4055 that they can do.4160

5 只是[But]我要先警戒[forewarn]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。』

5 But1161 I will forewarn5263 you5213 whom5101 ye shall fear: 5399 Fear5399 him, which after he hath killed615 hath2192 power1849 to cast1685 into1519 hell;1067 yea,3483 I say3004 unto you,5213 Fear5399 him.5126

6 五個麻雀不是賣二分銀子,但在神面前,一個也不忘記嗎?

6 Are not3780 five4002 sparrows4765 sold4453 for two1417 farthings,787 and2532 not3756 one1520 of1537 them846 is2076 forgotten1950 before1799 God?2316

7 然而[But],就是你們的頭髮,也都被數過了。所以[therefore],不要懼怕。你們比許多麻雀還貴重。」

7 But235 even2532 the3588 very hairs2359 of your5216 head2776 are all3956 numbered.705 Fear5399 not3361 therefore: 3767 ye are of more value1308 than many4183 sparrows.4765

8 「我又告訴你們:『凡在人面前認我的,人子在神的天使[angels]面前也必認他;

8 Also1161 I say3004 unto you,5213 Whosoever3956 3739 302 shall confess3670 me1698 before1715 men,444 1722 him846 shall the3588 Son5207 of man444 also2532 confess3670 before1715 the3588 angels32 of God: 2316

9 唯獨[But]在人面前不認我的,在神的天使[before the angels of God]面前也必不認他。』

9 But1161 he that denieth720 me3165 before1799 men444 shall be denied533 before1799 the3588 angels32 of God.2316

10 凡說話干犯人子的,還可得饒恕[forgiven];唯獨褻瀆聖靈的,總不得饒恕[forgiven]

10 And2532 whosoever3956 3739 shall speak2046 a word3056 against1519 the3588 Son5207 of man,444 it shall be forgiven863 him: 846 but1161 unto him that blasphemeth987 against1519 the3588 Holy40 Ghost4151 it shall not3756 be forgiven.863

11 人帶你們到會堂,並官長[magistrates]和有權柄的人面前,不要思慮怎麼分訴,說甚麼話;

11 And1161 when3752 they bring4374 you5209 unto1909 the3588 synagogues,4864 and2532 unto magistrates,746 and2532 powers,1849 take ye no thought3309 3361 how4459 or2228 what thing5101 ye shall answer,626 or2228 what5101 ye shall say: 2036

12 因為正在那時候,聖靈要指教你們當說的話。」

12 For1063 the3588 Holy40 Ghost4151 shall teach1321 you5209 in1722 the3588 same846 hour5610 what3739 ye ought1163 to say.2036

13 眾人中有一個人對耶穌說:「夫子,請你告訴[speak to]我的兄長,叫他[that he]和我分開家業。」

13 And1161 one5100 of1537 the3588 company3793 said2036 unto him,846 Master,1320 speak2036 to my3450 brother,80 that he divide3307 the3588 inheritance2817 with3326 me.1700

14 耶穌對他[unto him]說:「你這個人,誰立我作你們斷事的官,[or]給你們作分家業的[divider]呢?」

14 And1161 he3588 said2036 unto him,846 Man,444 who5101 made2525 me3165 a judge1348 or2228 a divider3312 over1909 you?5209

15 於是耶穌[he]對眾人說:「務要謹慎[Take heed]防備[beware of]貪心;因為人的生命不在乎家道豐富。」

15 And1161 he said2036 unto4314 them,846 Take heed,3708 and2532 beware5442 of575 covetousness: 4124 for3754 a man's5100 life2222 consisteth2076 not3756 in the abundance4052 of1537 the things which he possesseth.5224 846

16 [he]就用比喻對他們說:「有一個財主田產豐盛;

16 And1161 he spake2036 a parable3850 unto4314 them,846 saying,3004 The3588 ground5561 of a certain5100 rich4145 man444 brought forth plentifully: 2164

17 自己心裏思想說:『我的出產沒有地方收藏,怎麼辦呢?』

17 And2532 he thought1260 within1722 himself,1438 saying,3004 What5101 shall I do,4160 because3754 I have2192 no3756 room where4226 to bestow4863 my3450 fruits?2590

18 [he]說:『我要這麼辦:要把我的倉房拆了,另蓋更大的;在那裏[I]好收藏我一切的出產[fruits]和財物。

18 And2532 he said,2036 This5124 will I do: 4160 I will pull down2507 my3450 barns,596 and2532 build3618 greater;3187 and2532 there1563 will I bestow4863 all3956 my3450 fruits1081 and2532 my3450 goods.18

19 然後[I]要對我的元魂[soul]說:元魂[soul]哪,你有許多財物積存,可作多年的費用;[thine]只管安安逸逸的吃喝快樂吧。』

19 And2532 I will say2046 to my3450 soul,5590 Soul,5590 thou hast2192 much4183 goods18 laid up2749 for1519 many4183 years;2094 take thine ease,373 eat,5315 drink,4095 and be merry.2165

20 神卻對他說:『你這[Thou]無知的人哪,[this]夜必要你的元魂[soul];你所預備的要歸誰呢?』

20 But1161 God2316 said2036 unto him,846 Thou fool,878 this5026 night3571 thy4675 soul5590 shall be required523 of575 thee: 4675 then1161 whose5101 shall those things3739 be,2071 which thou hast provided?2090

21 凡為自己積財,在神面前卻不富足的,也是這樣。」

21 So3779 is he3588 that layeth up treasure2343 for himself,1438 and2532 is not rich4147 3361 toward1519 God.2316

22 耶穌又對他的[his]門徒說:「所以我告訴你們:『不要為生命憂慮吃甚麼;也不要[neither]為身體憂慮穿甚麼。

22 And1161 he said2036 unto4314 his848 disciples,3101 Therefore1223 5124 I say3004 unto you,5213 Take no thought3309 3361 for your5216 life,5590 what5101 ye shall eat;5315 neither3366 for the3588 body,4983 what5101 ye shall put on.1746

23 生命甚於[life is more than]飲食,身體甚於[more than]衣服。』

23 The3588 life5590 is2076 more4119 than meat,5160 and2532 the3588 body4983 is more than raiment.1742

24 你想烏鴉。烏鴉本[for they]不種也不收;又沒有倉又沒有庫;神尚且養活牠們[them]。你們比飛鳥是何等的貴重呢?

24 Consider2657 the3588 ravens: 2876 for3754 they neither3756 sow4687 nor3761 reap;2325 which3739 neither3756 have2076 storehouse5009 nor3761 barn;596 and2532 God2316 feedeth5142 them: 846 how much4214 more3123 are ye better1308 5210 than the3588 fowls?4071

25 你們那一個能用思慮使身量多加一肘呢[add to his stature one cubit]

25 And1161 which5101 of1537 you5216 with taking thought3309 can1410 add4369 to1909 his848 stature2244 one1520 cubit?4083

26 這最小的事,你們尚且不能作,為甚麼還憂慮其餘的事呢?

26 If1487 ye then3767 be not able1410 3777 to do that thing which is least,1646 why5101 take ye thought3309 for4012 the3588 rest?3062

27 你想百合花怎麼長起來:它們[they]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,還不如這些[these][of]一朵呢。

27 Consider2657 the3588 lilies2918 how4459 they grow: 837 they toil2872 not,3756 they spin3514 not;3761 and1161 yet I say3004 unto you,5213 that Solomon4672 in1722 all3956 his848 glory1391 was not3761 arrayed4016 like5613 one1520 of these.5130

28 你們這小信的人哪,若是[If]野地裏的草今天還在,明天就丟在爐裏,神還給它這樣的妝飾;何況妝飾[clothe]你們呢?

28 1161 If1487 then God2316 so3779 clothe294 the3588 grass,5528 which is5607 today4594 in1722 the3588 field,68 and2532 tomorrow839 is cast906 into1519 the oven;2823 how much4214 more3123 will he clothe you,5209 O ye of little faith?3640

29 你們不要求吃甚麼,[or]喝甚麼,也不要掛心。

29 And2532 seek2212 not3361 ye5210 what5101 ye shall eat,5315 or2228 what5101 ye shall drink,4095 neither2532 3361 be ye of doubtful mind.3349

30 這些[these]都是世上列國[nations of the world]所求的;們必須用這些東西,你們的父是知道的。

30 For1063 all3956 these things5023 do the3588 nations1484 of the3588 world2889 seek after: 1934 and1161 your5216 Father3962 knoweth1492 that3754 ye have need5535 of these things.5130

31 你們只要求[God]的國;這些東西[all]必加給你們了。

31 But4133 rather seek2212 ye the3588 kingdom932 of God;2316 and2532 all3956 these things5023 shall be added4369 unto you.5213

32 你們這小群,不要懼怕;因為你們的父樂意把國賜給你們。

32 Fear5399 not,3361 little3398 flock;4168 for3754 it is your Father's good pleasure2106 5216 3962 to give1325 you5213 the3588 kingdom.932

33 你們要變賣所有的賙濟人,為自己預備永不壞的口袋[bags],用不盡的財寶在諸天[heavens],就是賊不能近、蟲不能蛀的地方。

33 Sell4453 that ye have,5216 5224 and2532 give1325 alms;1654 provide4160 yourselves1438 bags905 which wax not old,3822 3361 a treasure2344 in1722 the3588 heavens3772 that faileth not,413 where3699 no3756 thief2812 approacheth,1448 neither3761 moth4597 corrupteth.1311

34 因為,你們的財寶在哪裏,你們的心也在那裏。」

34 For1063 where3699 your5216 treasure2344 is,2076 there1563 will your5216 heart2588 be2071 also.2532

35 「你們腰間[about]要束上帶,你們的光[your lights]也要[burning]著;

35 Let your5216 loins3751 be2077 girded about,4024 and2532 your lights3088 burning;2545

36 你們[ye]自己好像僕人等候主人從婚筵[wedding]上回來;他來到,叩門,就立刻給他開門。

36 And2532 ye yourselves5210 like unto3664 men444 that wait for4327 their1438 lord,2962 when4219 he will return360 from1537 the3588 wedding;1062 that2443 when he cometh2064 and2532 knocketh,2925 they may open455 unto him846 immediately.2112

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,主人必自己束上帶[gird himself]叫他們坐席[make them to sit down to meat],進前伺候他們。

37 Blessed3107 are those1565 servants,1401 whom3739 the3588 lord2962 when he cometh2064 shall find2147 watching: 1127 verily281 I say3004 unto you,5213 that3754 he shall gird4024 himself, and2532 make them846 to sit down to meat,347 and2532 will come forth3928 and serve1247 them.846

38 若是他[if he]第二更[second watch]來,或是第三更[third watch]來,看見僕人這樣,那僕人就有福了。

38 And2532 if1437 he shall come2064 in1722 the3588 second1208 watch,5438 or2532 come2064 in1722 the3588 third5154 watch,5438 and2532 find2147 them so,3779 blessed3107 are1526 those1565 servants.1401

39 家主若知道賊甚麼時候[would]來,就必警醒,不容賊挖透房屋,這是你們所知道的。

39 And1161 this5124 know,1097 that3754 if1487 the3588 goodman of the house3617 had known1492 what4169 hour5610 the3588 thief2812 would come,2064 he would have watched,1127 302 and2532 not3756 have suffered863 302 his848 house3624 to be broken through.1358

40 所以[therefore]你們也要預備;因為你們想不到的時候,人子就來了。」

40 Be1096 ye5210 therefore3767 ready2092 also: 2532 for3754 the3588 Son5207 of man444 cometh2064 at3739 an hour5610 when ye think1380 not.3756

41 那時[Then],彼得對他[unto him]說:「主啊,[thou]這比喻是為我們說的呢?還是為眾人呢?」

41 Then1161 Peter4074 said2036 unto him,846 Lord,2962 speakest3004 thou this5026 parable3850 unto4314 us,2248 or2228 even2532 to4314 all?3956

42 主說:「誰是那忠心有智慧[wise]的管家,[his]主人派他管理主人[his]家裏的人,按時分糧給他們呢?

42 And1161 the3588 Lord2962 said,2036 Who5101 then686 is2076 that faithful4103 and2532 wise5429 steward,3623 whom3739 his lord2962 shall make ruler2525 over1909 his848 household,2322 to give1325 them their portion of meat4620 in1722 due season?2540

43 他的[his]主人來到,看見僕人這樣行,那僕人就有福了。

43 Blessed3107 is that1565 servant,1401 whom3739 his846 lord2962 when he cometh2064 shall find2147 so3779 doing.4160

44 我實在告訴你們,主人要派他管理一切所有的。

44 Of a truth230 I say3004 unto you,5213 that3754 he will make him ruler2525 846 over1909 all3956 that he hath.5224 848

45 [But]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;

45 But1161 and if1437 that1565 servant1401 say2036 in1722 his848 heart,2588 My3450 lord2962 delayeth5549 his coming;2064 and2532 shall begin756 to beat5180 the3588 menservants3816 and2532 maidens,3814 and5037 to eat2068 and2532 drink,4095 and2532 to be drunken;3182

46 在他不昐望他[looketh not for him]的日子,不知不覺[not aware]的時辰,那僕人的主人要來,把他腰斬[cut him in sunder]又要[and will]定他和不信[unbelievers]的人同罪。

46 The3588 lord2962 of that1565 servant1401 will come2240 in1722 a day2250 when3739 he looketh not for4328 3756 him, and2532 at1722 an hour5610 when3739 he is not aware,1097 3756 and2532 will cut him in sunder,1371 846 and2532 will appoint5087 him846 his portion3313 with3326 the3588 unbelievers.571

47 [that]僕人知道[his]主人的意思,自己[himself]卻不預備,又不順他的意思行,[shall]多受責打。

47 And1161 that1565 servant,1401 which knew1097 his1438 lord's2962 will,2307 and2532 prepared2090 not3361 himself, neither3366 did4160 according to4314 his846 will,2307 shall be beaten1194 with many4183 stripes.

48 唯有那不知道的,犯了[did commit]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。」

48 But1161 he that knew1097 not,3361 and1161 did commit4160 things worthy514 of stripes,4127 shall be beaten1194 with few3641 stripes. For1161 unto whomsoever3956 3739 much4183 is given,1325 of3844 him846 shall be much4183 required: 2212 and2532 to whom3739 men have committed3908 much,4183 of him846 they will ask154 the more.4055

49 「我來要把火[send]在地上;倘若已經著起來,這是我何其願意的呢[what will I]

49 I am come2064 to send906 fire4442 on1519 the3588 earth;1093 and2532 what5101 will2309 I, if1487 it be already2235 kindled?381

50 [But]我有當受的浸還沒有成就;我是何等的迫切呢。

50 But1161 I have2192 a baptism908 to be baptized907 with; and2532 how4459 am I straitened4912 till2193 it3739 be accomplished!5055

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。

51 Suppose1380 ye that3754 I am come3854 to give1325 peace1515 on1722 earth?1093 I tell3004 you,5213 Nay;3780 but235 rather2228 division: 1267

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。

52 For1063 from575 henceforth3568 there shall be2071 five4002 in1722 one1520 house3624 divided,1266 three5140 against1909 two,1417 and2532 two1417 against1909 three.5140

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。』」

53 The father3962 shall be divided1266 against1909 the son,5207 and2532 the son5207 against1909 the father;3962 the mother3384 against1909 the daughter,2364 and2532 the daughter2364 against1909 the mother;3384 the mother in law3994 against1909 her848 daughter in law,3565 and2532 the daughter in law3565 against1909 her848 mother in law.3994

54 耶穌又對百姓[people]說:「你們[straightway]看見雲彩自西邊起[cloud rise out of the west],就說:『要下一陣雨;』果然就有。

54 And1161 he said3004 also2532 to the3588 people,3793 When3752 ye see1492 a cloud3507 rise393 out of575 the west,1424 straightway2112 ye say,3004 There cometh2064 a shower;3655 and2543 so3779 it is.1096

55 你們看見[ye see]起了南風,就說:『將要炎熱[heat];』也就有了。

55 And2532 when3752 ye see the south wind3558 blow,4154 ye say,3004 There will be2071 heat;2742 and2532 it cometh to pass.1096

56 你們這些偽善之人[Ye hypocrites],你們知道分辨天地的氣色,怎麼不知道分辨這時候呢?」

56 Ye hypocrites,5273 ye can1492 discern1381 the3588 face4383 of the3588 sky3772 and2532 of the3588 earth;1093 but1161 how4459 is it that ye do not3756 discern1381 this5126 time?2540

57 「你們又為何不自己審量甚麼是合理的呢?

57 Yea, and1161 why5101 even2532 of575 yourselves1438 judge2919 ye not3756 what is right?1342

58 你同告你的對頭去見官,當趁你[as thou art]還在路上,務要盡力的脫離他[delivered from him];恐怕他拉你到官面前,官將你[thee]交付差役,差役把你下在監裏。

58 1161 When5613 thou goest5217 with3326 thine4675 adversary476 to1909 the magistrate,758 as thou art in1722 the3588 way,3598 give1325 diligence2039 that thou mayest be delivered525 from575 him;846 lest3379 he hale2694 thee4571 to4314 the3588 judge,2923 and2532 the3588 judge2923 deliver3860 thee4571 to the3588 officer,4233 and2532 the3588 officer4233 cast906 thee4571 into1519 prison.5438

59 我告訴你,[thou]若有半文錢沒有還清,你不可離開那裏去[thou shalt not depart thence] 。」

59 I tell3004 thee,4671 thou shalt not3364 depart1831 thence,1564 till2193 3757 thou hast paid591 the3588 very2532 last2078 mite.3016
