马太福音 9
Chinese Contemporary Bible (Simplified)
医治瘫子
9 耶稣坐船回到湖对岸自己住的城镇。
2 有人用担架把一个瘫子抬到耶稣面前。耶稣看见他们的信心，就对瘫子说：“孩子，放心吧！你的罪得到赦免了。”
3 几个律法教师听了，心里想：“这个人是在亵渎上帝。”
4 耶稣知道他们的心思，就说：“你们为什么心怀恶念呢？ 5 说‘你的罪得到赦免了’容易呢？还是说‘你起来行走’容易呢？ 6 如今我要让你们知道人子在世上有赦罪的权柄。”于是祂对瘫子说：“起来！收拾你的担架回家去吧。”
7 那人立刻站起来，回家去了。 8 看见的人都充满了敬畏，就赞美把这样的权柄赐给人的上帝。
呼召马太
9 耶稣离开那里往前走，看见一个名叫马太的人坐在收税站里，便对他说：“跟从我！”马太就站起来跟从了耶稣。
10 耶稣在马太家里坐席的时候，很多税吏和罪人前来跟耶稣和祂的门徒一起坐席。 11 法利赛人看见了，就质问耶稣的门徒：“你们的老师为何跟税吏和罪人一起吃饭？” 12 耶稣听见后，答道：“健康的人不需要医生，有病的人才需要。 13 圣经上说，‘我喜爱怜悯之心，而非祭物’，你们去揣摩这句话的意思吧。我来不是要召义人，乃是要召罪人。”
禁食的问题
14 那时，约翰的门徒来问耶稣：“我们和法利赛人常常禁食，为什么你的门徒不禁食呢？”
15 耶稣对他们说：“新郎和宾客还在一起的时候，宾客怎能悲伤呢？但有一天新郎将被带走，那时他们就要禁食了。
16 “没有人用新布缝补旧衣，恐怕新布会把旧衣扯破，破洞会更大。 17 也没有人用旧皮囊来盛新酒，否则皮囊会胀破，酒也漏了，皮囊也毁了。人们总是把新酒装在新皮囊里，以便两样都能保住。”
起死回生
18 当耶稣在说话的时候，来了一个管理会堂的人跪在祂面前，说：“我的女儿刚刚死了，请你去把手按在她身上，她就会活过来。” 19 耶稣和门徒就起身跟着他去了。 20 途中，有一个患了十二年血漏病的女人挤到耶稣的背后，摸了一下祂衣服的穗边， 21 因为她心想：“我只要摸到祂的衣服，病就会好。” 22 耶稣转过头来，看见她，就说：“女儿，放心吧，你的信心救了你。”就在那一刻，她的顽疾痊愈了。
23 耶稣来到管理会堂之人的家，看见殡葬的吹乐手和乱嚷嚷的人群， 24 就吩咐他们：“你们出去吧，这女孩并没有死，只是睡着了。”他们都讥笑祂。
25 耶稣让众人都出去，然后进去拉着女孩的手，女孩就起来了。 26 这件事传遍了整个地区。
医治瞎子和哑巴
27 耶稣从那里往前走，有两个瞎子跟着祂，高声呼叫：“大卫的后裔啊，可怜我们吧！”
28 耶稣进了房子，那两个瞎子来到祂面前。耶稣问他们：“你们相信我能做这事吗？”他们说：“主啊，我们相信。”
29 于是，耶稣摸他们的眼睛，并说：“照你们的信心成全你们吧。” 30 他们立刻得见光明。耶稣郑重地叮嘱他们：“不要张扬这件事。” 31 但他们出去后把祂所行的事传遍了那一带。
32 他们正要离去，有人带着一个被鬼附身的哑巴来见耶稣。 33 耶稣把鬼赶出去后，哑巴就能说话了。
众人都感到惊奇，说：“在以色列从未见过这样的事。”
34 法利赛人却说：“祂只不过是靠鬼王赶鬼。”
耶稣怜悯众人
35 耶稣走遍了各城各乡，在会堂里教导人，传讲天国的福音，医治各样的疾病。 36 祂看见众人，心里怜悯他们，因为他们困苦无助，好像没有牧人的羊。 37 耶稣对门徒说：“要收割的庄稼很多，工人却很少。 38 因此，你们要祈求庄稼的主人派更多的工人去收割。”
Mattityahu 9
Orthodox Jewish Bible
9 And, having embarked into a sirah (boat), Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach crossed over [to the other side of the lake] and came into his own shtetl.
2 And hinei! They brought to Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach a paralytic lying upon a mat. Having seen their emunah, he said to the paralytic, Chazak! (Be strong!) Selicha (forgiveness) is granted on your averos (sins)!
3 And hinei! Some of the Sofrim said to themselves, This one commits Chillul Hashem! [VAYIKRA 22:32]
4 And Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach, reading their minds, said, Why are you thinking ra’ah (evil) in your levavot (hearts)?
5 For which is easier to say, Selicha is granted on your averos! Or...Arise and walk!?
6 But in order that you may have da’as that the Ben HaAdam [Moshiach] has samchut (authority) on earth to pronounce selicha (forgiveness) on chattaim (sins) Moshiach then declared to the paralytic, Arise, take up your mat and go to your bais (house).
7 And arising, he went away to his bais.
8 And having witnessed this, the multitudes experienced yirat Shomayim and gave kavod to Hashem, who had given such samchut to men.
9 And going away from there, Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach saw a man called Mattityahu sitting in the tax office. And Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach says to him, Follow me. And Mattityahu arose and followed him.
10 And it came about that while Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach was sitting bimesibba (reclining) at tish (table) in the bais, hinei! Many mochesim (tax collectors) and choteim (sinners) came and were sitting bimesibba (reclining) at tish (table) with Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach and his talmidim.
11 When the Perushim saw this, they were saying to Moshiach’s talmidim, Why does your Rebbe eat with the mochesim and the choteim?
12 But when Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach heard this, he said, It is not the bariim (healthy ones) who have need of a rofeh (physician), but the cholim.
13 Go and learn what this means: CHESED CHAFATZTI VLO ZEVACH (I desire loving kindness and not sacrifice HOSHEA 6:6), for I have not come to call the tzaddikim but the choteim (sinners) [to teshuva].
14 Then Yochanan’s talmidim approached Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach, saying, Why do we and the Perushim often undergo tzomot (fasts), but your talmidim do not undergo tzomot?
15 And Moshiach said to them, Surely the Bnei HaChuppah (wedding invitees) are not able to act as avelim (mourners) as long as the Choson (Bridegroom, i.e., Moshiach) is with them. But the days will come when the Choson is taken away from them, and then they will undergo tzomot.
16 No one sews a patch of unshrunk cloth on an old garment, for the patch pulls away from the garment, and a worse tear results.
17 Neither do men put yayin chadash (new wine) into old wineskins; otherwise, the wineskins burst, and the wine is spilled, and the wineskins are ruined. But they pour yayin chadash into new wineskins, and both are preserved.
18 While Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach was speaking these things to them one of the nichbadim (dignitaries) [of the shul] came and fell down before Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach, saying, The bat (daughter) of me has just become niftar (passed away), but come lay your hand upon her and she will live.
19 And Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach got up and, with his talmidim, followed him.
20 And hinei! An isha (woman) hemorrhaging twelve years approached him from behind and touched the garment of Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach’s tzitzit.
21 For she was saying to herself, If only I might touch his garment, I will receive refuah (healing).
22 Turning and seeing her, Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach said, Chazak, bat (daughter) of me! Your emunah has brought you refuah. And the isha was healed from that hour.
23 And having come into the bais (house) of the nichbad (dignitary), and having seen the flute players and the unruly crowd,
24 Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach was saying, Go away! For the yaldah is not among the mesim—she sleeps! And they were making leitzonus (mockery, fun) of Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach.
25 But when the crowd had been put outside, Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach went in and took the yaldah by the hand and the yaldah was made to stand up alive.
26 And this report went out into all that region.
27 And as Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach went on from there, two ivrim (blind men) followed him, shouting loudly, Chaneinu, Ben Dovid!
28 And when Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach [Ben Dovid] entered the bais (house), the ivrim (blind men) approached him, and he says to them, Do you have emunah that I am able to do this? They say to Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach, Ken, Adoneinu.
29 Then Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach touched their eyes, saying, According to your emunah, let it be done for you.
30 And their eyes were opened. Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach sternly warned them, saying, See to it that no one knows!
31 But having gone out, they made him known in that entire district.
32 After they had departed, the people brought to him a mute man who was possessed by shedim.
33 And when the shedim had been cast out by Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach, the mute man spoke. And the multitudes marveled, saying, Never was anything like this seen in Eretz Yisroel!
34 But the Perushim said, It was by the Sar HaShedim (the Prince of Demons) that this man casts out shedim!
35 And Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach went about all the shtetlach and villages exercising the ministry of moreh (teacher) in their shuls and of darshan (preacher) of the Besuras HaGeulah of the Malchut Hashem and bringing refuah to all the cholim, every machla (disease) and every illness.
36 And looking out on the multitudes, Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach felt rachmei Shomayim (heavenly compassion and mercy) for his people, for they were distressed and weary KATZON ASHER EIN LAHEM ROEH (like sheep without a shepherd BAMIDBAR 27:17).
37 Then Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach says to his talmidim, The katzir (harvest) is indeed great but the kotzerim (harvesters) are few.
38 Therefore, offer tefillos to the Adon HaKatzir (the L-rd of the Harvest) that He may send out Kotzerim into His Katzir.
