路加福音 22
Chinese New Version (Traditional)
商議怎樣殺害耶穌(A)
22 除酵節又名逾越節近了。 2 祭司長和經學家設法怎樣殺害耶穌,因為他們懼怕群眾。 3 那時,撒但已經進入加略人猶大的心,他原是十二門徒中的一個。 4 他去與祭司長和守殿官商量怎樣把耶穌交給他們。 5 他們很高興,約定了給他銀子。 6 他答應了,就尋找機會,要趁群眾不在的時候,把耶穌交給他們。
預備逾越節的筵席(B)
7 除酵日到了,在這一天應當宰殺逾越節的羊羔。 8 耶穌差派彼得和約翰,說:“你們去為我們預備逾越節的晚餐給我們吃。” 9 他們說:“你要我們在哪裡預備呢?” 10 他說:“你們進了城,必有一個人頂著水罐,迎面而來,你們就跟著他,到他所進的那一家, 11 對家主說,老師問你:‘客廳在哪裡?我和門徒好在那裡吃逾越節的晚餐。’ 12 他必指示你們樓上一間布置整齊的大房子,你們就在那裡預備。” 13 他們去了,所遇見的正像耶穌所說的一樣,就預備好了逾越節的晚餐。
最後的晚餐(C)
14 到了時候,耶穌和使徒一同吃飯。 15 他說:“我十分願意在受難以前,跟你們吃這逾越節的晚餐。 16 我告訴你們,我決不再吃這晚餐,直到它成就在 神的國裡。” 17 耶穌接過杯來,感謝了,說:“你們拿這個,大家分著喝。 18 我告訴你們,從今以後,我決不再喝這葡萄酒,直到 神的國來臨。” 19 他拿起餅來,感謝了,擘開遞給他們,說:“這是我的身體,為你們捨的,你們應當這樣行,為的是記念我。” 20 飯後,他照樣拿起杯來,說:“這杯是用我的血所立的新約,這血是為你們流的。 21 你看,出賣我的人的手和我一同在桌子上, 22 人子固然要照所預定的離世,但出賣人子的那人有禍了!” 23 於是,門徒彼此對問,他們中間誰要作這事。
門徒再爭論誰最大
24 門徒中間又起了爭論:他們中間誰是最大的。 25 耶穌對他們說:“各國都有君王統治他們,他們的掌權者稱為恩主, 26 但你們卻不要這樣;你們中間最大的,應當像最小的;作首領的,應當像服事人的。 27 哪一個大呢?是坐著吃喝的還是服事人的呢?不是坐著吃喝的嗎?然而我在你們中間,如同服事人的。 28 我在磨煉之中,常常和我同在的就是你們。 29 父怎樣把王權賜給我,我也照樣賜給你們, 30 叫你們在我的國裡坐在我的席上吃喝,又坐在寶座上審判以色列的十二支派。
預言彼得不認主(D)
31 “西門,西門,撒但設法要得著你們,好篩你們像篩麥子一樣; 32 但我已經為你祈求,叫你的信心不至失掉。你回頭的時候,要堅固你的弟兄。” 33 彼得說:“主啊!我已經準備好要跟你一同下監,一同死。” 34 耶穌說:“彼得,我告訴你,今天雞叫以前,你會三次說不認得我。”
要帶錢囊、口袋和刀
35 耶穌又對他們說:“從前我差你們出去,沒有帶錢囊、口袋、鞋子,你們缺乏甚麼沒有?”他們說:“沒有。” 36 耶穌說:“但現在,有錢囊的應當帶著,有口袋的也是這樣;沒有刀的,要賣掉衣服去買刀。 37 我告訴你們,‘他被列在不法者之中’這句經文,必定應驗在我身上,因為關於我的事必然成就。” 38 他們說:“主啊,請看,這裡有兩把刀。”耶穌說:“夠了。”
在客西馬尼禱告(E)
39 耶穌照常到橄欖山去,門徒也跟著他。 40 到了那裡,他對門徒說:“你們應當禱告,免得陷入試探。” 41 於是耶穌離開他們約有扔一塊石頭那麼遠,跪下禱告說: 42 “父啊,如果你願意,就把這杯拿走!但不要成就我的意思,只要成就你的旨意。”(有些抄本有第43、44節:“有一位天使從天上顯現,加給他力量。耶穌非常傷痛,禱告更加懇切,汗如大血點滴在地上。”) 45 他禱告完了,就起來到門徒那裡,看見他們因為憂愁都睡著了, 46 就說:“你們為甚麼睡覺呢?起來禱告!免得陷入試探。”
耶穌被捕(F)
47 耶穌還在說話的時候,來了一群人,十二門徒中的猶大走在前頭,到了耶穌跟前要用嘴親他。 48 耶穌對他說:“猶大,你用親吻作暗號出賣人子嗎?” 49 左右的人見了,就說:“主啊,我們用刀砍好嗎?” 50 他們中間有一個人砍了大祭司的僕人一刀,削掉他的右耳。 51 耶穌說:“由他們吧!”就摸那人的耳朵,醫好了他。 52 耶穌對那些前來捉拿他的祭司長、守殿官和長老說:“你們帶著刀棒出來,把我當作強盜捉拿嗎? 53 我天天跟你們在殿裡,你們不向我下手;但現在是你們的時候了,也是黑暗掌權的時候了。”
彼得三次不認主(G)
54 他們拿住耶穌,押到大祭司家裡,彼得遠遠地跟著。 55 他們在院內生了火,一同坐著,彼得也坐在他們中間。 56 有一個使女,見他面向火光坐著,就注視他,說:“這人是和他一夥的。” 57 彼得卻否認,說:“你這個女人,我不認得他。” 58 不久,另一個人看見他,就說:“你也是他們中間的一個。”彼得說:“你這個人,我不是。” 59 大約過了一小時,又有一個人肯定地說:“這人真是和他一夥的,因為他也是加利利人。” 60 彼得說:“你這個人,我不知道你說的是甚麼!”他還在說話的時候,雞就叫了。 61 主轉過身來看彼得,彼得就想起主對他說過的話:“今天雞叫以前,你要三次說不認得我。” 62 他就出去痛哭。
公議會審問耶穌(H)
63 看管耶穌的人戲弄他,打他, 64 蒙住他的眼睛問他:“你說預言吧,說打你的是誰。” 65 他們還說了許多別的辱罵他的話。
66 天一亮,民間的長老、祭司長和經學家就都聚集,把他帶到他們的公議會裡,說: 67 “你若是基督,就告訴我們吧。”耶穌說:“就算我告訴你們,你們也決不相信。 68 如果我問你們,你們也決不回答。 69 從今以後,人子要坐在 神權能的右邊。” 70 他們說:“那麼你是 神的兒子嗎?”耶穌說:“你們說了,我是。” 71 他們說:“我們還需要甚麼見證呢?我們親自聽見他所說的話了。”

43 有 一 位 天 使 從 天 上 顯 現 , 加 添 他 的 力 量 。
44 耶 穌 極 其 傷 痛 , 禱 告 更 加 懇 切 , 汗 珠 如 大 血 點 滴 在 地 上 。
45 禱 告 完 了 , 就 起 來 , 到 門 徒 那 裡 , 見 他 們 因 為 憂 愁 都 睡 著 了 ,
46 就 對 他 們 說 : 你 們 為 甚 麼 睡 覺 呢 ? 起 來 禱 告 , 免 得 入 了 迷 惑 !
47 說 話 之 間 , 來 了 許 多 人 。 那 十 二 個 門 徒 裡 名 叫 猶 大 的 , 走 在 前 頭 , 就 近 耶 穌 , 要 與 他 親 嘴 。
48 耶 穌 對 他 說 : 猶 大 ! 你 用 親 嘴 的 暗 號 賣 人 子 麼 ?
49 左 右 的 人 見 光 景 不 好 , 就 說 : 主 阿 ﹗ 我 們 拿 刀 砍 可 以 不 可 以 ?
50 內 中 有 一 個 人 把 大 祭 司 的 僕 人 砍 了 一 刀 , 削 掉 了 他 的 右 耳 。
51 耶 穌 說 : 到 了 這 個 地 步 , 由 他 們 罷 ! 就 摸 那 人 的 耳 朵 , 把 他 治 好 了 。
52 耶 穌 對 那 些 來 拿 他 的 祭 司 長 和 守 殿 官 並 長 老 說 : 你 們 帶 著 刀 棒 出 來 拿 我 , 如 同 拿 強 盜 麼 ?
53 我 天 天 同 你 們 在 殿 裡 , 你 們 不 下 手 拿 我 。 現 在 卻 是 你 們 的 時 候 , 黑 暗 掌 權 了 。
54 他 們 拿 住 耶 穌 , 把 他 帶 到 大 祭 司 的 宅 裡 。 彼 得 遠 遠 的 跟 著 。

60 彼 得 說 : 你 這 個 人 ! 我 不 曉 得 你 說 的 是 甚 麼 ! 正 說 話 之 間 , 雞 就 叫 了 。
61 主 轉 過 身 來 看 彼 得 。 彼 得 便 想 起 主 對 他 所 說 的 話 : 今 日 雞 叫 以 先 , 你 要 三 次 不 認 我 。

Luke 22
King James Version
22 Now the feast of unleavened bread drew nigh, which is called the Passover.
2 And the chief priests and scribes sought how they might kill him; for they feared the people.
3 Then entered Satan into Judas surnamed Iscariot, being of the number of the twelve.
4 And he went his way, and communed with the chief priests and captains, how he might betray him unto them.
5 And they were glad, and covenanted to give him money.
6 And he promised, and sought opportunity to betray him unto them in the absence of the multitude.
7 Then came the day of unleavened bread, when the passover must be killed.
8 And he sent Peter and John, saying, Go and prepare us the passover, that we may eat.
9 And they said unto him, Where wilt thou that we prepare?
10 And he said unto them, Behold, when ye are entered into the city, there shall a man meet you, bearing a pitcher of water; follow him into the house where he entereth in.
11 And ye shall say unto the goodman of the house, The Master saith unto thee, Where is the guestchamber, where I shall eat the passover with my disciples?
12 And he shall shew you a large upper room furnished: there make ready.
13 And they went, and found as he had said unto them: and they made ready the passover.
14 And when the hour was come, he sat down, and the twelve apostles with him.
15 And he said unto them, With desire I have desired to eat this passover with you before I suffer:
16 For I say unto you, I will not any more eat thereof, until it be fulfilled in the kingdom of God.
17 And he took the cup, and gave thanks, and said, Take this, and divide it among yourselves:
18 For I say unto you, I will not drink of the fruit of the vine, until the kingdom of God shall come.
19 And he took bread, and gave thanks, and brake it, and gave unto them, saying, This is my body which is given for you: this do in remembrance of me.
20 Likewise also the cup after supper, saying, This cup is the new testament in my blood, which is shed for you.
21 But, behold, the hand of him that betrayeth me is with me on the table.
22 And truly the Son of man goeth, as it was determined: but woe unto that man by whom he is betrayed!
23 And they began to enquire among themselves, which of them it was that should do this thing.
24 And there was also a strife among them, which of them should be accounted the greatest.
25 And he said unto them, The kings of the Gentiles exercise lordship over them; and they that exercise authority upon them are called benefactors.
26 But ye shall not be so: but he that is greatest among you, let him be as the younger; and he that is chief, as he that doth serve.
27 For whether is greater, he that sitteth at meat, or he that serveth? is not he that sitteth at meat? but I am among you as he that serveth.
28 Ye are they which have continued with me in my temptations.
29 And I appoint unto you a kingdom, as my Father hath appointed unto me;
30 That ye may eat and drink at my table in my kingdom, and sit on thrones judging the twelve tribes of Israel.
31 And the Lord said, Simon, Simon, behold, Satan hath desired to have you, that he may sift you as wheat:
32 But I have prayed for thee, that thy faith fail not: and when thou art converted, strengthen thy brethren.
33 And he said unto him, Lord, I am ready to go with thee, both into prison, and to death.
34 And he said, I tell thee, Peter, the cock shall not crow this day, before that thou shalt thrice deny that thou knowest me.
35 And he said unto them, When I sent you without purse, and scrip, and shoes, lacked ye any thing? And they said, Nothing.
36 Then said he unto them, But now, he that hath a purse, let him take it, and likewise his scrip: and he that hath no sword, let him sell his garment, and buy one.
37 For I say unto you, that this that is written must yet be accomplished in me, And he was reckoned among the transgressors: for the things concerning me have an end.
38 And they said, Lord, behold, here are two swords. And he said unto them, It is enough.
39 And he came out, and went, as he was wont, to the mount of Olives; and his disciples also followed him.
40 And when he was at the place, he said unto them, Pray that ye enter not into temptation.
41 And he was withdrawn from them about a stone's cast, and kneeled down, and prayed,
42 Saying, Father, if thou be willing, remove this cup from me: nevertheless not my will, but thine, be done.
43 And there appeared an angel unto him from heaven, strengthening him.
44 And being in an agony he prayed more earnestly: and his sweat was as it were great drops of blood falling down to the ground.
45 And when he rose up from prayer, and was come to his disciples, he found them sleeping for sorrow,
46 And said unto them, Why sleep ye? rise and pray, lest ye enter into temptation.
47 And while he yet spake, behold a multitude, and he that was called Judas, one of the twelve, went before them, and drew near unto Jesus to kiss him.
48 But Jesus said unto him, Judas, betrayest thou the Son of man with a kiss?
49 When they which were about him saw what would follow, they said unto him, Lord, shall we smite with the sword?
50 And one of them smote the servant of the high priest, and cut off his right ear.
51 And Jesus answered and said, Suffer ye thus far. And he touched his ear, and healed him.
52 Then Jesus said unto the chief priests, and captains of the temple, and the elders, which were come to him, Be ye come out, as against a thief, with swords and staves?
53 When I was daily with you in the temple, ye stretched forth no hands against me: but this is your hour, and the power of darkness.
54 Then took they him, and led him, and brought him into the high priest's house. And Peter followed afar off.
55 And when they had kindled a fire in the midst of the hall, and were set down together, Peter sat down among them.
56 But a certain maid beheld him as he sat by the fire, and earnestly looked upon him, and said, This man was also with him.
57 And he denied him, saying, Woman, I know him not.
58 And after a little while another saw him, and said, Thou art also of them. And Peter said, Man, I am not.
59 And about the space of one hour after another confidently affirmed, saying, Of a truth this fellow also was with him: for he is a Galilaean.
60 And Peter said, Man, I know not what thou sayest. And immediately, while he yet spake, the cock crew.
61 And the Lord turned, and looked upon Peter. And Peter remembered the word of the Lord, how he had said unto him, Before the cock crow, thou shalt deny me thrice.
62 And Peter went out, and wept bitterly.
63 And the men that held Jesus mocked him, and smote him.
64 And when they had blindfolded him, they struck him on the face, and asked him, saying, Prophesy, who is it that smote thee?
65 And many other things blasphemously spake they against him.
66 And as soon as it was day, the elders of the people and the chief priests and the scribes came together, and led him into their council, saying,
67 Art thou the Christ? tell us. And he said unto them, If I tell you, ye will not believe:
68 And if I also ask you, ye will not answer me, nor let me go.
69 Hereafter shall the Son of man sit on the right hand of the power of God.
70 Then said they all, Art thou then the Son of God? And he said unto them, Ye say that I am.
71 And they said, What need we any further witness? for we ourselves have heard of his own mouth.
Luke 22
New King James Version
The Plot to Kill Jesus(A)
22 Now (B)the Feast of Unleavened Bread drew near, which is called Passover. 2 And (C)the chief priests and the scribes sought how they might kill Him, for they feared the people.
3 (D)Then Satan entered Judas, surnamed Iscariot, who was numbered among the (E)twelve. 4 So he went his way and conferred with the chief priests and captains, how he might betray Him to them. 5 And they were glad, and (F)agreed to give him money. 6 So he promised and sought opportunity to (G)betray Him to them in the absence of the multitude.
Jesus and His Disciples Prepare the Passover
7 (H)Then came the Day of Unleavened Bread, when the Passover must be [a]killed. 8 And He sent Peter and John, saying, “Go and prepare the Passover for us, that we may eat.”
9 So they said to Him, “Where do You want us to prepare?”
10 And He said to them, “Behold, when you have entered the city, a man will meet you carrying a pitcher of water; follow him into the house which he enters. 11 Then you shall say to the master of the house, ‘The Teacher says to you, “Where is the guest room where I may eat the Passover with My disciples?” ’ 12 Then he will show you a large, furnished upper room; there make ready.”
13 So they went and (I)found it just as He had said to them, and they prepared the Passover.
Jesus Institutes the Lord’s Supper
14 (J)When the hour had come, He sat down, and the [b]twelve apostles with Him. 15 Then He said to them, “With fervent desire I have desired to eat this Passover with you before I suffer; 16 for I say to you, I will no longer eat of it (K)until it is fulfilled in the kingdom of God.”
17 Then He took the cup, and gave thanks, and said, “Take this and divide it among yourselves; 18 for (L)I say to you, [c]I will not drink of the fruit of the vine until the kingdom of God comes.”
19 (M)And He took bread, gave thanks and broke it, and gave it to them, saying, “This is My (N)body which is given for you; (O)do this in remembrance of Me.”
20 Likewise He also took the cup after supper, saying, (P)“This cup is the new covenant in My blood, which is shed for you. 21 (Q)But behold, the hand of My betrayer is with Me on the table. 22 (R)And truly the Son of Man goes (S)as it has been determined, but woe to that man by whom He is betrayed!”
23 (T)Then they began to question among themselves, which of them it was who would do this thing.
The Disciples Argue About Greatness
24 (U)Now there was also a dispute among them, as to which of them should be considered the greatest. 25 (V)And He said to them, “The kings of the Gentiles exercise lordship over them, and those who exercise authority over them are called ‘benefactors.’ 26 (W)But not so among you; on the contrary, (X)he who is greatest among you, let him be as the younger, and he who governs as he who serves. 27 (Y)For who is greater, he who sits at the table, or he who serves? Is it not he who sits at the table? Yet (Z)I am among you as the One who serves.
28 “But you are those who have continued with Me in (AA)My trials. 29 And (AB)I bestow upon you a kingdom, just as My Father bestowed one upon Me, 30 that (AC)you may eat and drink at My table in My kingdom, (AD)and sit on thrones judging the twelve tribes of Israel.”
Jesus Predicts Peter’s Denial(AE)
31 [d]And the Lord said, “Simon, Simon! Indeed, (AF)Satan has asked for you, that he may (AG)sift you as wheat. 32 But (AH)I have prayed for you, that your faith should not fail; and when you have returned to Me, (AI)strengthen your brethren.”
33 But he said to Him, “Lord, I am ready to go with You, both to prison and to death.”
34 (AJ)Then He said, “I tell you, Peter, the rooster shall not crow this day before you will deny three times that you know Me.”
Supplies for the Road
35 (AK)And He said to them, “When I sent you without money bag, knapsack, and sandals, did you lack anything?”
So they said, “Nothing.”
36 Then He said to them, “But now, he who has a money bag, let him take it, and likewise a knapsack; and he who has no sword, let him sell his garment and buy one. 37 For I say to you that this which is written must still be [e]accomplished in Me: (AL)‘And He was numbered with the transgressors.’ For the things concerning Me have an end.”
38 So they said, “Lord, look, here are two swords.”
And He said to them, “It is enough.”
The Prayer in the Garden(AM)
39 (AN)Coming out, (AO)He went to the Mount of Olives, as He was accustomed, and His disciples also followed Him. 40 (AP)When He came to the place, He said to them, “Pray that you may not enter into temptation.”
41 (AQ)And He was withdrawn from them about a stone’s throw, and He knelt down and prayed, 42 saying, “Father, if it is Your will, take this cup away from Me; nevertheless (AR)not My will, but Yours, be done.” 43 [f]Then (AS)an angel appeared to Him from heaven, strengthening Him. 44 (AT)And being in agony, He prayed more earnestly. Then His sweat became like great drops of blood falling down to the ground.
45 When He rose up from prayer, and had come to His disciples, He found them sleeping from sorrow. 46 Then He said to them, “Why (AU)do you sleep? Rise and (AV)pray, lest you enter into temptation.”

47 And while He was still speaking, (AX)behold, a multitude; and he who was called (AY)Judas, one of the twelve, went before them and drew near to Jesus to kiss Him. 48 But Jesus said to him, “Judas, are you betraying the Son of Man with a (AZ)kiss?”
49 When those around Him saw what was going to happen, they said to Him, “Lord, shall we strike with the sword?” 50 And (BA)one of them struck the servant of the high priest and cut off his right ear.
51 But Jesus answered and said, “Permit even this.” And He touched his ear and healed him.
52 (BB)Then Jesus said to the chief priests, captains of the temple, and the elders who had come to Him, “Have you come out, as against a (BC)robber, with swords and clubs? 53 When I was with you daily in the (BD)temple, you did not try to seize Me. But this is your (BE)hour, and the power of darkness.”
Peter Denies Jesus, and Weeps Bitterly(BF)
54 (BG)Having arrested Him, they led Him and brought Him into the high priest’s house. (BH)But Peter followed at a distance. 55 (BI)Now when they had kindled a fire in the midst of the courtyard and sat down together, Peter sat among them. 56 And a certain servant girl, seeing him as he sat by the fire, looked intently at him and said, “This man was also with Him.”
57 But he denied [g]Him, saying, “Woman, I do not know Him.”
58 (BJ)And after a little while another saw him and said, “You also are of them.”
But Peter said, “Man, I am not!”
59 (BK)Then after about an hour had passed, another confidently affirmed, saying, “Surely this fellow also was with Him, for he is a (BL)Galilean.”
60 But Peter said, “Man, I do not know what you are saying!”
Immediately, while he was still speaking, [h]the rooster crowed. 61 And the Lord turned and looked at Peter. Then (BM)Peter remembered the word of the Lord, how He had said to him, (BN)“Before the rooster [i]crows, you will deny Me three times.” 62 So Peter went out and wept bitterly.
Jesus Mocked and Beaten(BO)
63 (BP)Now the men who held Jesus mocked Him and (BQ)beat Him. 64 [j]And having blindfolded Him, they (BR)struck Him on the face and asked Him, saying, “Prophesy! Who is the one who struck You?” 65 And many other things they blasphemously spoke against Him.
Jesus Faces the Sanhedrin(BS)
66 (BT)As soon as it was day, (BU)the elders of the people, both chief priests and scribes, came together and led Him into their council, saying, 67 (BV)“If You are the Christ, tell us.”
But He said to them, “If I tell you, you will (BW)by no means believe. 68 And if I [k]also ask you, you will by no means answer [l]Me or let Me go. 69 (BX)Hereafter the Son of Man will sit on the right hand of the power of God.”
70 Then they all said, “Are You then the Son of God?”
So He said to them, (BY)“You rightly say that I am.”
71 (BZ)And they said, “What further testimony do we need? For we have heard it ourselves from His own mouth.”
