馬其頓聖徒樂捐的榜樣

弟兄們,我現在把 神賜給馬其頓眾教會的恩典告訴你們: 他們在患難中受到極大的考驗的時候,他們滿溢的喜樂和極度的貧乏,匯流出豐厚的慷慨來。 我可以作證,他們是按著能力,並且是超過了能力,自願地 再三懇求我們,准許他們在供應聖徒的事上有分。 他們超過了我們所期望的,照著 神的旨意,先把自己獻給主,然後獻給我們。 因此,我們勉勵提多,既然開始了這慈善的事,就應當在你們那裡把這事辦好。 你們在一切事上,就如信心、口才、知識、熱情和愛我們的心,既然都是富足的,那麼,在這慈善的事上,也要顯出你們是富足的。

勸信徒完成慈善的事

我這樣說,不是吩咐你們,而是藉著別人的熱心來考驗你們的愛心是否真實。 你們是知道我們的主耶穌基督的恩典的:他本來富足,卻為你們成了貧窮,要使你們因他的貧窮成為富足。 10 我在這裡表示我的意見,這對你們是有益的:你們不僅一年前就在辦這事,而且早就想這樣作了, 11 現在就應當把這事辦好;這樣,你們既然有願意作的心,因著你們盡了自己所能的,就可以完成。 12 因為人要是有願意作的心,按照他所有的,必蒙悅納,不是按照他所沒有的。 13 這不是要別人輕省,你們受累,而是要大家都均等。 14 現在你們富裕,就要補助他們的缺乏,到了他們富裕的時候,也可以補助你們的缺乏,這樣就均等了; 15 正如經上所記:

“多的,沒有剩餘,

少的,也不缺乏。”

16 感謝 神,他把我對你們那樣的熱情,放在提多的心裡。 17 提多一方面接受了勸勉,但他自己更加熱心,自願到你們那裡去。 18 我們還派了一位弟兄和他同去,(這人在福音的事工上,得到了眾教會的稱讚。 19 不但這樣,眾教會更選派了他作我們的旅伴。我們辦理這慈善的事,是為了主的榮耀,也是為了我們的心願。) 20 免得有人因為我們經管的捐款太多,就毀謗我們。 21 因為我們努力去作的,不僅是主認為是美的事,也是眾人認為是美的事。 22 我們還派了另一位弟兄與他們同去;我們在許多的事上多次考驗過他,知道他很熱心;現在他對你們大有信心,就更加熱心了。 23 至於提多,他是我的同伴,為你們的緣故作了我的同工;還有我們那兩位弟兄,他們是眾教會所派的,是基督的榮耀。 24 所以,你們要在眾教會面前,向他們證明你們的愛心和我們所誇耀你們的。

鼓勵信徒慷慨捐助

弟兄姊妹,我們現在要讓你們知道上帝向馬其頓各教會所施的恩典。 他們雖然遭遇極大的患難,受盡熬煉,卻充滿了喜樂,在極度貧窮的情況下仍然十分慷慨樂捐。 我可以證明,他們是甘心樂意,盡其所能地捐助,甚至超過了自己的能力。 他們懇切地求我們准許他們與有需要的聖徒分享上帝的恩典。 他們這樣做超過了我們的期望,並且他們按照上帝的旨意首先把自己獻給主,然後獻給我們。

所以,我們勸提多要繼續完成他早先在你們當中開始的這件善事。 你們既然在信心、口才、知識、熱心和對我們的愛心上都有突出的表現,也要在這件善事上有突出的表現。 我說這話並非命令你們,而是藉著別人的熱心考驗一下你們愛心的真偽。 因為你們知道我們主耶穌基督的恩典,祂本來富足,卻為你們的緣故變得貧窮,使你們藉著祂的貧窮可以變得富足。

10 關於捐助的事,我把自己的意見告訴你們:你們一年前開始捐助,並且甘心樂意——這對你們有益。 11 你們現在要把它完成。你們既有懇切願意的心,就要有始有終。 12 因為人只要按自己的能力甘心樂意地去做,必蒙上帝悅納,上帝不會強求人做無法做的事。 13 這不是說要別人脫離困境,要你們陷入困境,乃是要均平。 14 現在你們這些富足的人可以幫補那些有需要的人,以便你們有需要的時候,那些富足的人也可以幫補你們,這樣才均平。 15 正如聖經上說:「多拾的沒有剩餘,少拾的也沒有缺乏。」

託人送捐款

16 感謝上帝!祂感動了提多的心,使他像我一樣熱誠地關懷你們。 17 這固然是他聽了我們的勸告,但也是他自己非常熱誠,自願去你們那裡。 18 我們還要派一位弟兄和他同去,這位弟兄在傳福音的事上得到各地教會的讚許。 19 此外,他還受各教會的委派,與我們一同把捐款送往耶路撒冷,使主得榮耀,並表明我們熱誠相助的心。 20 我們這樣做是為了避免有人挑我們的不是,因我們經手的捐款數目可觀。 21 無論在主面前或在人面前,我們務求行事為人光明磊落。

22 我們還要再派一位弟兄和他們一同去你們那裡。我們經過多次多方的考驗,證實他很熱心,而且他因為十分信任你們,現在更熱心了。 23 至於提多,他是我的同伴,與我一同服侍你們。另外兩位弟兄是眾教會的代表,是基督的榮耀。 24 所以,你們要在眾教會面前向他們證明你們的愛心,以及我誇耀你們的話並非虛言。

Moreover, brethren, we do you to wit of the grace of God bestowed on the churches of Macedonia;

How that in a great trial of affliction the abundance of their joy and their deep poverty abounded unto the riches of their liberality.

For to their power, I bear record, yea, and beyond their power they were willing of themselves;

Praying us with much intreaty that we would receive the gift, and take upon us the fellowship of the ministering to the saints.

And this they did, not as we hoped, but first gave their own selves to the Lord, and unto us by the will of God.

Insomuch that we desired Titus, that as he had begun, so he would also finish in you the same grace also.

Therefore, as ye abound in every thing, in faith, and utterance, and knowledge, and in all diligence, and in your love to us, see that ye abound in this grace also.

I speak not by commandment, but by occasion of the forwardness of others, and to prove the sincerity of your love.

For ye know the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, that, though he was rich, yet for your sakes he became poor, that ye through his poverty might be rich.

10 And herein I give my advice: for this is expedient for you, who have begun before, not only to do, but also to be forward a year ago.

11 Now therefore perform the doing of it; that as there was a readiness to will, so there may be a performance also out of that which ye have.

12 For if there be first a willing mind, it is accepted according to that a man hath, and not according to that he hath not.

13 For I mean not that other men be eased, and ye burdened:

14 But by an equality, that now at this time your abundance may be a supply for their want, that their abundance also may be a supply for your want: that there may be equality:

15 As it is written, He that had gathered much had nothing over; and he that had gathered little had no lack.

16 But thanks be to God, which put the same earnest care into the heart of Titus for you.

17 For indeed he accepted the exhortation; but being more forward, of his own accord he went unto you.

18 And we have sent with him the brother, whose praise is in the gospel throughout all the churches;

19 And not that only, but who was also chosen of the churches to travel with us with this grace, which is administered by us to the glory of the same Lord, and declaration of your ready mind:

20 Avoiding this, that no man should blame us in this abundance which is administered by us:

21 Providing for honest things, not only in the sight of the Lord, but also in the sight of men.

22 And we have sent with them our brother, whom we have oftentimes proved diligent in many things, but now much more diligent, upon the great confidence which I have in you.

23 Whether any do enquire of Titus, he is my partner and fellowhelper concerning you: or our brethren be enquired of, they are the messengers of the churches, and the glory of Christ.

24 Wherefore shew ye to them, and before the churches, the proof of your love, and of our boasting on your behalf.
