彼得后书 2
Chinese New Version (Simplified)
提防假先知和假教师
2 从前在人民中,曾有假先知出来;照样,将来在你们中间,也必有假教师出现。他们偷偷把使人灭亡的异端引进来,甚至否认那曾经买赎他们的主,迅速地自取灭亡。 2 许多人会随从他们的淫行,因此真理的道,就因他们的缘故被人毁谤。 3 他们因为有贪心,就用捏造的话,想在你们身上图利;惩罚他们的,自古以来就没有松懈;毁灭他们的,也不会打盹。
4 神没有姑息犯罪的天使,反而把他们丢入地狱,囚禁在幽暗的坑里,等候审判。 5 神也没有姑息上古的世界,反而使洪水临到那不敬虔的世人,只保存了传义道的挪亚一家八口。 6 神判定了所多玛、蛾摩拉二城的罪,把它们倾覆,烧成灰烬,作为后世不敬虔的人的鉴戒; 7 只救了那因恶人的淫行而常受委屈的义人罗得; 8 (因为这义人住在他们中间,天天看见和听见他们不法的事,他正直的心就感到伤痛。) 9 主知道怎样搭救敬虔的人脱离试探,又把不义的人留下来,等候在审判的日子受刑罚, 10 尤其是那些随从肉体,生活在污秽的私欲中,和轻蔑当权的,更是这样。他们胆大任性,毫无畏惧地毁谤在尊位的。 11 就是天使,虽有更大的力量与权能,尚且不用毁谤的话在主面前控告他们。 12 但这些人,好象没有理性的牲畜,生下来就是给人捉去宰杀的;他们毁谤自己所不知道的事,必在自己的败坏中灭亡。 13 他们行不义,就得了不义的工价。他们在白昼纵情作乐,满了污点与瑕疵,和你们一同吃饭的时候,就因自己的诡诈而沾沾自喜。 14 他们满眼淫色,而且不住地犯罪。他们引诱心志不坚固的人。他们的心习惯了贪婪,是应当受咒诅的族类。 15 他们离弃正路,走入歧途,跟从了比珥的儿子巴兰的道路。这巴兰贪爱不义的工价, 16 他曾经因着自己的过犯受了责备:不能说话的驴,竟用人的声音说出话来,制止了这先知的狂妄。
17 这些人是无水的泉源,是暴风催逼的雾气,有漆黑的幽暗为他们存留。 18 因为他们说虚妄夸大的话,用肉体的私欲和邪荡的事,引诱那些刚刚逃脱了错谬生活的人。 19 他们应许给人自由,自己却作了败坏的奴仆;因为人给谁制伏了,就作谁的奴仆。 20 如果他们因为认识我们的主、救主耶稣基督,可以脱离世上的污秽,后来又在其中被缠住、受制伏,他们末了的景况,就比先前的更不好了。 21 既然认识了义路,竟又背弃传给他们的圣诫命,对他们来说,倒不如不认识好得多了。 22 他们的情形,正像俗语所说的:
“狗转过来,又吃自己所吐的;
猪洗净了,又到污泥中去打滚。”
2 Peter 2
New International Version
False Teachers and Their Destruction
2 But there were also false prophets(A) among the people, just as there will be false teachers among you.(B) They will secretly introduce destructive heresies, even denying the sovereign Lord(C) who bought them(D)—bringing swift destruction on themselves. 2 Many will follow their depraved conduct(E) and will bring the way of truth into disrepute. 3 In their greed(F) these teachers will exploit you(G) with fabricated stories. Their condemnation has long been hanging over them, and their destruction has not been sleeping.
4 For if God did not spare angels when they sinned,(H) but sent them to hell,[a] putting them in chains of darkness[b] to be held for judgment;(I) 5 if he did not spare the ancient world(J) when he brought the flood on its ungodly people,(K) but protected Noah, a preacher of righteousness, and seven others;(L) 6 if he condemned the cities of Sodom and Gomorrah by burning them to ashes,(M) and made them an example(N) of what is going to happen to the ungodly;(O) 7 and if he rescued Lot,(P) a righteous man, who was distressed by the depraved conduct of the lawless(Q) 8 (for that righteous man,(R) living among them day after day, was tormented in his righteous soul by the lawless deeds he saw and heard)— 9 if this is so, then the Lord knows how to rescue the godly from trials(S) and to hold the unrighteous for punishment on the day of judgment.(T) 10 This is especially true of those who follow the corrupt desire(U) of the flesh[c] and despise authority.
Bold and arrogant, they are not afraid to heap abuse on celestial beings;(V) 11 yet even angels, although they are stronger and more powerful, do not heap abuse on such beings when bringing judgment on them from[d] the Lord.(W) 12 But these people blaspheme in matters they do not understand. They are like unreasoning animals, creatures of instinct, born only to be caught and destroyed, and like animals they too will perish.(X)
13 They will be paid back with harm for the harm they have done. Their idea of pleasure is to carouse in broad daylight.(Y) They are blots and blemishes, reveling in their pleasures while they feast with you.[e](Z) 14 With eyes full of adultery, they never stop sinning; they seduce(AA) the unstable;(AB) they are experts in greed(AC)—an accursed brood!(AD) 15 They have left the straight way and wandered off to follow the way of Balaam(AE) son of Bezer,[f] who loved the wages of wickedness. 16 But he was rebuked for his wrongdoing by a donkey—an animal without speech—who spoke with a human voice and restrained the prophet’s madness.(AF)
17 These people are springs without water(AG) and mists driven by a storm. Blackest darkness is reserved for them.(AH) 18 For they mouth empty, boastful words(AI) and, by appealing to the lustful desires of the flesh, they entice people who are just escaping(AJ) from those who live in error. 19 They promise them freedom, while they themselves are slaves of depravity—for “people are slaves to whatever has mastered them.”(AK) 20 If they have escaped the corruption of the world by knowing(AL) our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ(AM) and are again entangled in it and are overcome, they are worse off at the end than they were at the beginning.(AN) 21 It would have been better for them not to have known the way of righteousness, than to have known it and then to turn their backs on the sacred command that was passed on to them.(AO) 22 Of them the proverbs are true: “A dog returns to its vomit,”[g](AP) and, “A sow that is washed returns to her wallowing in the mud.”
