路加福音 10
Chinese Contemporary Bible (Traditional)
差遣門徒
10 事後,主揀選了七十個門徒[a],差遣他們兩個兩個地出去,先到祂將要去的城鎮村莊, 2 並對他們說:「要收割的莊稼很多,工人卻很少,因此你們要祈求莊稼的主人派更多的工人去收割祂的莊稼。
3 「你們去吧!我差你們出去,就像把羊羔送入狼群。 4 錢袋、背包和鞋都不要帶,在路上也不要與人寒暄。 5 無論到哪一戶人家,要先說,『願祝福臨到這家!』 6 如果那裡有配得祝福的人,祝福自然會臨到那人,否則祝福仍歸給你們。 7 不要搬來搬去,要固定住在一家,接受那家的款待,因為工人理應得到工錢。
8 「你們無論到哪一個城鎮,如果人們接待你們,就吃他們擺上的飲食。 9 要醫治那城裡的病人,告訴他們,『上帝的國臨近你們了。』 10 但如果哪一個城鎮的人不歡迎你們,你們就到街上宣告, 11 『就連你們城裡的塵土粘在我們腳上,我們都要跺掉,但是要知道,上帝的國臨近了。』 12 我告訴你們,在審判之日,那城所受的刑罰將比所多瑪所受的還重!
13 「哥拉汛啊,你大禍臨頭了!伯賽大啊,你大禍臨頭了!我在你們當中所行的神蹟,如果行在泰爾和西頓,那裡的人早就身披麻衣,頭蒙灰塵,坐在地上悔改了。 14 在審判之日,你們將比泰爾和西頓受更重的刑罰!
15 「迦百農啊,你將被提升到天上嗎?不!你將被打落到陰間。」
16 耶穌繼續對門徒說:「誰聽從你們,就是聽從我;誰拒絕你們,就是拒絕我;拒絕我的,就是拒絕差我來的那位。」
17 七十個門徒興高采烈地回來說:「主啊,我們奉你的名行事,甚至降服了鬼魔。」
18 耶穌回答說:「我看見撒旦像閃電一樣從天上墜下。 19 我已經給你們權柄,使你們能踐踏蛇和蠍子,勝過仇敵的權勢,沒有什麼能傷害你們。 20 然而,不要為了邪靈向你們降服而高興,要因你們的名字記錄在天上而高興。」
21 就在這時候,耶穌受聖靈感動,充滿喜樂地說:「父啊,天地的主,我頌讚你!因為你把這些事向聰明、有學問的人隱藏起來,卻啟示給像孩童一般的人。父啊!是的,這正是你的美意。 22 我父將一切交給了我。除了父,沒有人認識子;除了子和受子啟示的人,沒有人認識父。」
23 隨後,耶穌轉身悄悄地對門徒說:「誰看到你們今日所看到的,誰就有福了。 24 我告訴你們,以前有許多先知和君王渴望看見你們所看見的,聽見你們所聽見的,卻未能如願。」
好撒瑪利亞人的比喻
25 有一次,一名律法教師站起來試探耶穌,說:「老師,我應該怎樣做才能得永生呢?」
26 耶穌反問他:「律法怎麼說?你怎麼理解?」
27 律法教師答道:「『你要全心、全情、全力、全意愛主——你的上帝』,又要『愛鄰如己』。」 28 耶穌說:「你答得對,照著去做就有永生了。」
29 律法教師想證明自己有理,就問:「那麼,誰是我的鄰居呢?」
30 耶穌回答說:「有個人從耶路撒冷去耶利哥,途中被劫。強盜剝了他的衣服,把他打個半死,丟在那裡,然後揚長而去。
31 「剛好有位祭司經過,看見那人躺在地上,連忙從旁邊繞過,繼續趕路。 32 又有個利未人經過,也跟先前那個祭司一樣從旁邊繞過去了。
33 「後來,有位撒瑪利亞人[b]經過,看見這個人,就動了慈心, 34 連忙上前用油和酒替他敷傷口,包紮妥當,然後把他扶上自己騎的牲口,帶到附近的客店照料。 35 次日還交給店主兩個銀幣,說,『請替我好好照顧這個人。如果錢不夠的話,等我回來再補給你。』 36 那麼,你認為這三個人中誰是被劫者的鄰居呢?」
37 律法教師說:「是那個同情他的人。」
耶穌說:「你去照樣做吧。」
上好的福分
38 耶穌和門徒去耶路撒冷的途中路過一個村莊,遇到一位名叫瑪大的女子接待他們到家裡作客。 39 瑪大的妹妹瑪麗亞坐在耶穌腳前聽道, 40 瑪大為了招待客人忙亂不已,於是上前對耶穌說:
「主啊,我妹妹讓我一個人伺候大家,你都不管嗎?請你叫她來幫幫我吧。」
41 耶穌對她說:「瑪大,瑪大,你為太多事情憂慮煩惱。 42 其實最要緊的事只有一件,瑪麗亞選擇了上好的,是奪不走的。」
Luke 10

Jesus Sends Disciples to Do Mission Work
10 After this, the Lord appointed 70[a] other disciples to go ahead of him to every city and place that he intended to go. They were to travel in pairs.
2 He told them, “The harvest is large, but the workers are few. So ask the Lord who gives this harvest to send workers to harvest his crops. 3 Go! I’m sending you out like lambs among wolves. 4 Don’t carry a wallet, a traveling bag, or sandals, and don’t stop to greet anyone on the way. 5 Whenever you go into a house, greet the family right away with the words, ‘May there be peace in this house.’ 6 If a peaceful person lives there, your greeting will be accepted. But if that’s not the case, your greeting will be rejected. 7 Stay with the family that accepts you. Eat and drink whatever they offer you. After all, the worker deserves his pay. Do not move around from one house to another. 8 Whenever you go into a city and the people welcome you, eat whatever they serve you. 9 Heal the sick that are there, and tell the people, ‘The kingdom of God is near you!’
10 “But whenever you go into a city and people don’t welcome you, leave. Announce in its streets, 11 ‘We are wiping your city’s dust from our feet in protest against you! But realize that the kingdom of God is near you!’ 12 I can guarantee that judgment day will be easier for Sodom than for that city.
13 “How horrible it will be for you, Chorazin! How horrible it will be for you, Bethsaida! If the miracles worked in your cities had been worked in Tyre and Sidon, they would have changed the way they thought and acted. Long ago they would have worn sackcloth and sat in ashes. 14 Judgment day will be better for Tyre and Sidon than for you. 15 And you, Capernaum, will you be lifted to heaven? No, you will go to hell!
16 “The person who hears you hears me, and the person who rejects you rejects me. The person who rejects me rejects the one who sent me.”
17 The 70 disciples came back very happy. They said, “Lord, even demons obey us when we use the power and authority of your name!”
18 Yeshua said to them, “I watched Satan fall from heaven like lightning. 19 I have given you the authority to trample snakes and scorpions and to destroy the enemy’s power. Nothing will hurt you. 20 However, don’t be happy that evil spirits obey you. Be happy that your names are written in heaven.”
21 In that hour the Holy Spirit filled Yeshua with joy. Yeshua said, “I praise you, Father, Lord of heaven and earth, for hiding these things from wise and intelligent people and revealing them to little children. Yes, Father, this is what pleased you.
22 “My Father has turned everything over to me. Only the Father knows who the Son is. And no one knows who the Father is except the Son and those to whom the Son is willing to reveal him.”
23 He turned to his disciples in private and said to them, “How blessed you are to see what you’ve seen. 24 I can guarantee that many prophets and kings wanted to see and hear what you’ve seen and heard, but they didn’t.”
A Story about a Good Samaritan
25 Then an expert in Moses’ Teachings stood up to test Yeshua. He asked, “Teacher, what must I do to inherit eternal life?”
26 Yeshua answered him, “What is written in Moses’ Teachings? What do you read there?”
27 He answered, “‘Love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, with all your strength, and with all your mind. And love your neighbor as you love yourself.’”
28 Yeshua told him, “You’re right! Do this, and life will be yours.”
29 But the man wanted to justify his question. So he asked Yeshua, “Who is my neighbor?”
30 Yeshua replied, “A man went from Jerusalem to Jericho. On the way robbers stripped him, beat him, and left him for dead.
31 “By chance, a priest was traveling along that road. When he saw the man, he went around him and continued on his way. 32 Then a Levite came to that place. When he saw the man, he, too, went around him and continued on his way.
33 “But a Samaritan, as he was traveling along, came across the man. When the Samaritan saw him, he felt sorry for the man, 34 went to him, and cleaned and bandaged his wounds. Then he put him on his own animal, brought him to an inn, and took care of him. 35 The next day the Samaritan took out two silver coins and gave them to the innkeeper. He told the innkeeper, ‘Take care of him. If you spend more than that, I’ll pay you on my return trip.’
36 “Of these three men, who do you think was a neighbor to the man who was attacked by robbers?”
37 The expert said, “The one who was kind enough to help him.”
Yeshua told him, “Go and imitate his example!”
Mary Listens to Jesus
38 As they were traveling along, Yeshua went into a village. A woman named Martha welcomed him into her home. 39 She had a sister named Mary. Mary sat at the Lord’s feet and listened to him talk.
40 But Martha was upset about all the work she had to do. So she asked, “Lord, don’t you care that my sister has left me to do the work all by myself? Tell her to help me.”
41 The Lord answered her, “Martha, Martha! You worry and fuss about a lot of things. 42 There’s only one thing you need.[b] Mary has made the right choice, and that one thing will not be taken away from her.”
