使徒行傳 14
Revised Chinese Union Version (Traditional Script) Shen Edition
在以哥念傳道
14 同樣的事也發生在以哥念。保羅和巴拿巴進了猶太人的會堂,在那裏講道,所以有很多猶太人和希臘人都信了。 2 但那不順從的猶太人煽動外邦人,使他們心裏仇恨弟兄。 3 二人在那裏住了好些日子,倚靠主放膽講道,主藉他們的手施行神蹟奇事,證明他恩惠的道。 4 城裏的眾人卻分裂了:有依附猶太人的,有依附使徒的。 5 那時,外邦人、猶太人和他們的官長,一齊擁上來,要凌辱使徒,用石頭打他們。 6 使徒知道了,就逃到呂高尼的路司得和特庇兩個城,以及周圍地方去, 7 在那裏繼續傳福音。
在路司得傳道
8 路司得城裏有一個兩腳無力的人,他從母腹裏就是瘸腿的,老是坐着,從來沒有走過。 9 他聽保羅講道;保羅定睛看他,見他有信心,可得痊癒, 10 就大聲說:「起來!兩腳站直。」那人就跳起來,開始行走。 11 眾人看見保羅所做的事,就用呂高尼話大聲說:「有神明藉着人形降臨在我們中間了。」 12 於是他們稱巴拿巴為宙斯,稱保羅為希耳米,因為他總是帶頭說話。 13 城外有宙斯廟的祭司牽着牛,拿着花環,來到門前,要同眾人一起獻祭。 14 巴拿巴和保羅二位使徒聽見,就撕開衣裳,跳進眾人中間,喊着: 15 「諸位,為甚麼做這些事呢?我們也是人,性情和你們一樣。我們傳福音給你們,是要你們離棄這些虛妄的事,歸向那創造天、地、海和其中萬物的永生的 神。 16 他在從前的世代,任憑萬國各行其道; 17 然而他未嘗不為自己留下證據來,就如常行善事,從天降雨,賞賜豐年,使你們飲食飽足,滿心喜樂。」 18 二人說了這些話,總算攔住眾人不獻祭給他們。 19 但有些猶太人,從安提阿和以哥念來,挑唆眾人,並且用石頭打保羅,以為他死了,就把他拖到城外。 20 當門徒圍着他的時候,他站了起來,走進城去。第二天,保羅同巴拿巴往特庇去。
回到敘利亞的安提阿
21 保羅和巴拿巴對那城裏的人傳了福音,使好些人成為門徒後,又回路司得、以哥念、安提阿去, 22 堅固門徒的心,勸他們持守他們的信仰,說:「我們進入 神的國,必須經歷許多艱難。」 23 二人在各教會中選立了長老,禁食禱告後,把他們交託給他們所信的主。
24 二人經過彼西底來到旁非利亞, 25 在別加講了道,就下亞大利去, 26 從那裏坐船回安提阿去。當初,眾人就在這地方,把他們交託在 神的恩典中,要完成現在所做的工。 27 他們一到那裏,就聚集了會眾,述說 神藉他們所行的一切事,並且 神怎樣為外邦人開了信道的門。 28 二人在那裏同門徒住了一段日子。

在以哥念傳道
14 保羅和巴拿巴一同進入以哥念的猶太會堂講道,許多猶太人和希臘人信了耶穌。 2 但那些頑梗不信的猶太人卻慫恿外族人敵視信徒。 3 二人在那裡逗留了好些日子,靠著主勇敢地傳道。主賜給他們行神蹟奇事的能力,為祂的恩典之道做見證。 4 城裡的居民分成了兩派,有些附和猶太人,有些支持使徒。
5 當時,有些外族人、猶太人及其官長企圖惡待使徒,用石頭打他們。 6 保羅和巴拿巴得知後,就逃往呂高尼的路司得和特庇二城並周圍的地區, 7 在那裡繼續傳揚福音。
在路司得和特庇傳福音
8 路司得城裡坐著一個天生雙腳無力、不能走路的瘸子。 9 他也聽保羅講道。保羅定睛看他,見這個人有信心,可以得醫治, 10 就高聲對他說:「起來,兩腳站直!」那人就跳了起來,開始行走。 11 周圍的人看見保羅所行的,就用呂高尼話大聲說:「神明化成人形下凡了!」 12 於是,他們稱巴拿巴為希臘天神宙斯,又因為保羅是主要的發言人,就稱他為希耳米[a]。 13 城外宙斯廟的祭司也牽著牛、拿著花環來到城門口,要和眾人一同向使徒獻祭。
14 巴拿巴和保羅見此情形,就撕裂衣服,衝進人群中,大聲喊著說: 15 「各位,你們為什麼這樣做?我們和你們一樣只是凡人!我們來這裡是要向你們傳福音,叫你們離棄這些虛妄的事,轉向那創造天、地、海和其中萬物的永活上帝。 16 在以往的世代,祂雖然容許萬國各行其道, 17 卻從未停止用美善的事證實自己的存在。祂常施恩惠,降下甘霖,賞賜豐年,又叫你們衣食飽足,滿心喜樂。」
18 保羅和巴拿巴說了這些話,才勉強制止住向他們獻祭的人群。 19 有些猶太人從安提阿和以哥念來煽動民眾,他們用石頭打保羅,以為他死了,就把他拖到城外。 20 當門徒圍過來看他的時候,他站了起來,走回城裡。第二天,保羅和巴拿巴前往特庇。
返回安提阿
21 他們向那裡的人傳福音,有很多人作了門徒。然後,他們又回到路司得、以哥念和安提阿, 22 堅固各地門徒的信心,鼓勵他們要持守信仰,並且說:「我們在進入上帝國的道路上必經歷許多苦難。」 23 二人又為每個教會選立長老,禁食禱告,把他們交託給所信靠的主。
24 後來,二人又經過彼西底,來到旁非利亞, 25 在別加講道,然後下到亞大利, 26 從那裡乘船回安提阿。當初就是在安提阿,他們被交託在上帝的恩手中去傳道,如今工作已經完成了。
27 他們到達之後,就召集教會的人,報告上帝藉著他們所做的一切事,以及上帝如何給外族人開了信仰之門。 28 之後,二人和門徒同住了很久。

Acts 14
King James Version
14 And it came to pass in Iconium, that they went both together into the synagogue of the Jews, and so spake, that a great multitude both of the Jews and also of the Greeks believed.
2 But the unbelieving Jews stirred up the Gentiles, and made their minds evil affected against the brethren.
3 Long time therefore abode they speaking boldly in the Lord, which gave testimony unto the word of his grace, and granted signs and wonders to be done by their hands.
4 But the multitude of the city was divided: and part held with the Jews, and part with the apostles.
5 And when there was an assault made both of the Gentiles, and also of the Jews with their rulers, to use them despitefully, and to stone them,
6 They were ware of it, and fled unto Lystra and Derbe, cities of Lycaonia, and unto the region that lieth round about:
7 And there they preached the gospel.
8 And there sat a certain man at Lystra, impotent in his feet, being a cripple from his mother's womb, who never had walked:
9 The same heard Paul speak: who stedfastly beholding him, and perceiving that he had faith to be healed,
10 Said with a loud voice, Stand upright on thy feet. And he leaped and walked.
11 And when the people saw what Paul had done, they lifted up their voices, saying in the speech of Lycaonia, The gods are come down to us in the likeness of men.
12 And they called Barnabas, Jupiter; and Paul, Mercurius, because he was the chief speaker.
13 Then the priest of Jupiter, which was before their city, brought oxen and garlands unto the gates, and would have done sacrifice with the people.
14 Which when the apostles, Barnabas and Paul, heard of, they rent their clothes, and ran in among the people, crying out,
15 And saying, Sirs, why do ye these things? We also are men of like passions with you, and preach unto you that ye should turn from these vanities unto the living God, which made heaven, and earth, and the sea, and all things that are therein:
16 Who in times past suffered all nations to walk in their own ways.
17 Nevertheless he left not himself without witness, in that he did good, and gave us rain from heaven, and fruitful seasons, filling our hearts with food and gladness.
18 And with these sayings scarce restrained they the people, that they had not done sacrifice unto them.
19 And there came thither certain Jews from Antioch and Iconium, who persuaded the people, and having stoned Paul, drew him out of the city, supposing he had been dead.
20 Howbeit, as the disciples stood round about him, he rose up, and came into the city: and the next day he departed with Barnabas to Derbe.
21 And when they had preached the gospel to that city, and had taught many, they returned again to Lystra, and to Iconium, and Antioch,
22 Confirming the souls of the disciples, and exhorting them to continue in the faith, and that we must through much tribulation enter into the kingdom of God.
23 And when they had ordained them elders in every church, and had prayed with fasting, they commended them to the Lord, on whom they believed.
24 And after they had passed throughout Pisidia, they came to Pamphylia.
25 And when they had preached the word in Perga, they went down into Attalia:
26 And thence sailed to Antioch, from whence they had been recommended to the grace of God for the work which they fulfilled.
27 And when they were come, and had gathered the church together, they rehearsed all that God had done with them, and how he had opened the door of faith unto the Gentiles.
28 And there they abode long time with the disciples.
