使徒行传 19
Chinese New Version (Traditional)
在以弗所
19 亞波羅在哥林多的時候，保羅經過內地一帶，來到以弗所。他遇見幾個門徒， 2 問他們說：“你們信的時候，受了聖靈沒有？”他們說：“沒有，連聖靈賜下來這件事，我們也沒有聽過。” 3 保羅問：“那麼你們受的是甚麼洗呢？”他們說：“是約翰的洗禮。” 4 保羅說：“約翰施的是悔改的洗禮，他告訴人民當信在他以後要來的那一位，就是耶穌。” 5 他們聽見了，就受洗歸入主耶穌的名下。 6 保羅為他們按手，聖靈就降在他們身上，他們就用各種的語言講話，並且說預言。 7 他們一共約有十二人。
8 一連三個月，保羅都到會堂裡去，放膽宣講，辯論 神的國的事，勸導人。 9 可是有些人心裡剛硬，不受勸化，在群眾面前毀謗這道，保羅就離開他們，也叫門徒與他們分開。他每天在推喇奴學院跟人辯論。 10 這樣過了兩年，全亞西亞的居民，無論猶太人或希臘人，都聽見了主的道。
士基瓦的七個兒子
11 神藉著保羅的手，行了一些不平凡的神蹟。 12 甚至有人把保羅貼身的手巾圍巾拿去，放在病人身上，病就好了，邪靈也出來了。 13 那時，有幾個趕鬼的猶太人，周遊各處，擅自用主耶穌的名，向身上有邪靈的人說：“我奉保羅所傳的耶穌的名，命令你們出來。” 14 有一個猶太人士基瓦，是祭司長，他的七個兒子都作這事。 15 邪靈回答他們：“耶穌我認識，保羅我也知道；你們是誰？” 16 邪靈所附的那人就撲到他們身上，制伏了兩人，勝過了他們，使他們赤著身帶著傷，從那房子逃了出來。 17 所有住在以弗所的猶太人和希臘人，都知道這件事；大家都懼怕，尊主耶穌的名為大。 18 也有許多信了的人，來承認和述說自己行過的事。 19 又有許多行巫術的人，把他們的書堆在一起當眾燒掉。他們估計書價，才知道共值五萬塊銀子。 20 這樣，主的道大有能力地興旺起來，而且得勝。
以弗所的騷動
21 這些事以後，保羅心裡定意要經過馬其頓、亞該亞，往耶路撒冷去。他說：“我到了那邊以後，也該去羅馬看看。” 22 於是從服事他的人中，派了提摩太和以拉都兩人去馬其頓，自己暫時留在亞西亞。
23 那時，因這道起了大擾亂， 24 有一個銀匠，名叫低米丟，是製造亞底米女神銀龕的。他讓技工們作了不少的生意。 25 他把這些人和同業的工人聚集起來，說：“各位，你們知道，我們是靠這生意賺錢的。 26 現在你們看見了，也聽見了，這個保羅不單在以弗所，而且幾乎在整個亞西亞，說服了，也帶壞了許多人，說：‘人手所做的，都不是神。’ 27 這樣，不只我們這一行要給人鄙視，就是大女神亞底米的廟也會給人撇棄，連全亞西亞和普天下所敬拜的女神也要垮臺，威榮盡都失掉了。”
28 他們聽了，怒氣沖沖喊著說：“以弗所人的女神，偉大的亞底米啊！” 29 全城騷動起來，他們捉住了保羅的旅伴馬其頓人該猶和亞里達古，齊心衝進了劇場。 30 保羅想要到人群當中去，門徒卻不許。 31 還有幾位亞西亞的首長，是保羅的朋友，派人來勸他，不要冒險到劇場裡去。 32 那時大家叫這個喊那個，亂成一團，大多數的人都不知道聚集的原因。 33 猶太人把亞歷山大推到前面，群眾中有人把這事的因由告訴他。亞歷山大作了一個手勢，要向民眾申辯。 34 大家一認出他是猶太人，就異口同聲高呼：“以弗所人的女神，偉大的亞底米啊！”喊了約有兩個鐘頭。 35 後來，書記官安撫群眾說：“以弗所人哪！誰不知道你們的城，是看守大亞底米的廟，又是看守宙斯那裡降下的神像的呢？ 36 這些事既然是駁不倒的，你們就應當平心靜氣，不可輕舉妄動。 37 你們帶來的這些人，既沒有行劫廟宇，也沒有褻瀆我們的女神。 38 如果低米丟和同他一起的技工要控告誰，大可以告上法庭，或呈交總督；讓他們彼此控告好了。 39 如果還有其他的事件，可以在合法的集會裡，謀求解決。 40 今天的動亂，本來是無緣無故的，我們可能有被控告的危險；關於這次的騷動，我們實在無法解釋。” 41 說了這些話，就把群眾解散了。

在以弗所
19 亚波罗在哥林多的时候，保罗经过内地一带，来到以弗所。他遇见几个门徒， 2 问他们说：“你们信的时候，受了圣灵没有？”他们说：“没有，连圣灵赐下来这件事，我们也没有听过。” 3 保罗问：“那么你们受的是甚么洗呢？”他们说：“是约翰的洗礼。” 4 保罗说：“约翰施的是悔改的洗礼，他告诉人民当信在他以后要来的那一位，就是耶稣。” 5 他们听见了，就受洗归入主耶稣的名下。 6 保罗为他们按手，圣灵就降在他们身上，他们就用各种的语言讲话，并且说预言。 7 他们一共约有十二人。
8 一连三个月，保罗都到会堂里去，放胆宣讲，辩论 神的国的事，劝导人。 9 可是有些人心里刚硬，不受劝化，在群众面前毁谤这道，保罗就离开他们，也叫门徒与他们分开。他每天在推喇奴学院跟人辩论。 10 这样过了两年，全亚西亚的居民，无论犹太人或希腊人，都听见了主的道。
士基瓦的七个儿子
11 神借着保罗的手，行了一些不平凡的神迹。 12 甚至有人把保罗贴身的手巾围巾拿去，放在病人身上，病就好了，邪灵也出来了。 13 那时，有几个赶鬼的犹太人，周游各处，擅自用主耶稣的名，向身上有邪灵的人说：“我奉保罗所传的耶稣的名，命令你们出来。” 14 有一个犹太人士基瓦，是祭司长，他的七个儿子都作这事。 15 邪灵回答他们：“耶稣我认识，保罗我也知道；你们是谁？” 16 邪灵所附的那人就扑到他们身上，制伏了两人，胜过了他们，使他们赤着身带着伤，从那房子逃了出来。 17 所有住在以弗所的犹太人和希腊人，都知道这件事；大家都惧怕，尊主耶稣的名为大。 18 也有许多信了的人，来承认和述说自己行过的事。 19 又有许多行巫术的人，把他们的书堆在一起当众烧掉。他们估计书价，才知道共值五万块银子。 20 这样，主的道大有能力地兴旺起来，而且得胜。
以弗所的骚动
21 这些事以后，保罗心里定意要经过马其顿、亚该亚，往耶路撒冷去。他说：“我到了那边以后，也该去罗马看看。” 22 于是从服事他的人中，派了提摩太和以拉都两人去马其顿，自己暂时留在亚西亚。
23 那时，因这道起了大扰乱， 24 有一个银匠，名叫低米丢，是制造亚底米女神银龛的。他让技工们作了不少的生意。 25 他把这些人和同业的工人聚集起来，说：“各位，你们知道，我们是靠这生意赚钱的。 26 现在你们看见了，也听见了，这个保罗不单在以弗所，而且几乎在整个亚西亚，说服了，也带坏了许多人，说：‘人手所做的，都不是神。’ 27 这样，不只我们这一行要给人鄙视，就是大女神亚底米的庙也会给人撇弃，连全亚西亚和普天下所敬拜的女神也要垮台，威荣尽都失掉了。”
28 他们听了，怒气冲冲喊着说：“以弗所人的女神，伟大的亚底米啊！” 29 全城骚动起来，他们捉住了保罗的旅伴马其顿人该犹和亚里达古，齐心冲进了剧场。 30 保罗想要到人群当中去，门徒却不许。 31 还有几位亚西亚的首长，是保罗的朋友，派人来劝他，不要冒险到剧场里去。 32 那时大家叫这个喊那个，乱成一团，大多数的人都不知道聚集的原因。 33 犹太人把亚历山大推到前面，群众中有人把这事的因由告诉他。亚历山大作了一个手势，要向民众申辩。 34 大家一认出他是犹太人，就异口同声高呼：“以弗所人的女神，伟大的亚底米啊！”喊了约有两个钟头。 35 后来，书记官安抚群众说：“以弗所人哪！谁不知道你们的城，是看守大亚底米的庙，又是看守宙斯那里降下的神像的呢？ 36 这些事既然是驳不倒的，你们就应当平心静气，不可轻举妄动。 37 你们带来的这些人，既没有行劫庙宇，也没有亵渎我们的女神。 38 如果低米丢和同他一起的技工要控告谁，大可以告上法庭，或呈交总督；让他们彼此控告好了。 39 如果还有其他的事件，可以在合法的集会里，谋求解决。 40 今天的动乱，本来是无缘无故的，我们可能有被控告的危险；关于这次的骚动，我们实在无法解释。” 41 说了这些话，就把群众解散了。
Acts 19
King James Version
19 And it came to pass, that, while Apollos was at Corinth, Paul having passed through the upper coasts came to Ephesus: and finding certain disciples,
2 He said unto them, Have ye received the Holy Ghost since ye believed? And they said unto him, We have not so much as heard whether there be any Holy Ghost.
3 And he said unto them, Unto what then were ye baptized? And they said, Unto John's baptism.
4 Then said Paul, John verily baptized with the baptism of repentance, saying unto the people, that they should believe on him which should come after him, that is, on Christ Jesus.
5 When they heard this, they were baptized in the name of the Lord Jesus.
6 And when Paul had laid his hands upon them, the Holy Ghost came on them; and they spake with tongues, and prophesied.
7 And all the men were about twelve.
8 And he went into the synagogue, and spake boldly for the space of three months, disputing and persuading the things concerning the kingdom of God.
9 But when divers were hardened, and believed not, but spake evil of that way before the multitude, he departed from them, and separated the disciples, disputing daily in the school of one Tyrannus.
10 And this continued by the space of two years; so that all they which dwelt in Asia heard the word of the Lord Jesus, both Jews and Greeks.
11 And God wrought special miracles by the hands of Paul:
12 So that from his body were brought unto the sick handkerchiefs or aprons, and the diseases departed from them, and the evil spirits went out of them.
13 Then certain of the vagabond Jews, exorcists, took upon them to call over them which had evil spirits the name of the Lord Jesus, saying, We adjure you by Jesus whom Paul preacheth.
14 And there were seven sons of one Sceva, a Jew, and chief of the priests, which did so.
15 And the evil spirit answered and said, Jesus I know, and Paul I know; but who are ye?
16 And the man in whom the evil spirit was leaped on them, and overcame them, and prevailed against them, so that they fled out of that house naked and wounded.
17 And this was known to all the Jews and Greeks also dwelling at Ephesus; and fear fell on them all, and the name of the Lord Jesus was magnified.
18 And many that believed came, and confessed, and shewed their deeds.
19 Many of them also which used curious arts brought their books together, and burned them before all men: and they counted the price of them, and found it fifty thousand pieces of silver.
20 So mightily grew the word of God and prevailed.
21 After these things were ended, Paul purposed in the spirit, when he had passed through Macedonia and Achaia, to go to Jerusalem, saying, After I have been there, I must also see Rome.
22 So he sent into Macedonia two of them that ministered unto him, Timotheus and Erastus; but he himself stayed in Asia for a season.
23 And the same time there arose no small stir about that way.
24 For a certain man named Demetrius, a silversmith, which made silver shrines for Diana, brought no small gain unto the craftsmen;
25 Whom he called together with the workmen of like occupation, and said, Sirs, ye know that by this craft we have our wealth.
26 Moreover ye see and hear, that not alone at Ephesus, but almost throughout all Asia, this Paul hath persuaded and turned away much people, saying that they be no gods, which are made with hands:
27 So that not only this our craft is in danger to be set at nought; but also that the temple of the great goddess Diana should be despised, and her magnificence should be destroyed, whom all Asia and the world worshippeth.
28 And when they heard these sayings, they were full of wrath, and cried out, saying, Great is Diana of the Ephesians.
29 And the whole city was filled with confusion: and having caught Gaius and Aristarchus, men of Macedonia, Paul's companions in travel, they rushed with one accord into the theatre.
30 And when Paul would have entered in unto the people, the disciples suffered him not.
31 And certain of the chief of Asia, which were his friends, sent unto him, desiring him that he would not adventure himself into the theatre.
32 Some therefore cried one thing, and some another: for the assembly was confused: and the more part knew not wherefore they were come together.
33 And they drew Alexander out of the multitude, the Jews putting him forward. And Alexander beckoned with the hand, and would have made his defence unto the people.
34 But when they knew that he was a Jew, all with one voice about the space of two hours cried out, Great is Diana of the Ephesians.
35 And when the townclerk had appeased the people, he said, Ye men of Ephesus, what man is there that knoweth not how that the city of the Ephesians is a worshipper of the great goddess Diana, and of the image which fell down from Jupiter?
36 Seeing then that these things cannot be spoken against, ye ought to be quiet, and to do nothing rashly.
37 For ye have brought hither these men, which are neither robbers of churches, nor yet blasphemers of your goddess.
38 Wherefore if Demetrius, and the craftsmen which are with him, have a matter against any man, the law is open, and there are deputies: let them implead one another.
39 But if ye enquire any thing concerning other matters, it shall be determined in a lawful assembly.
40 For we are in danger to be called in question for this day's uproar, there being no cause whereby we may give an account of this concourse.
41 And when he had thus spoken, he dismissed the assembly.
