使徒行传 13
Chinese New Version (Simplified)
巴拿巴和扫罗奉差遣
13 安提阿教会中，有几位先知和教师，就是巴拿巴、名叫尼结的西面、古利奈人路求、与分封王希律一同长大的马念，和扫罗。 2 他们事奉主，并且禁食的时候，圣灵说：“要为我把巴拿巴和扫罗分别出来，去作我呼召他们作的工。” 3 于是他们禁食祷告，为两人按手，就派他们去了。
第一次宣教旅程
4 他们既然奉圣灵差遣，就下到西流基，从那里坐船往塞浦路斯。 5 他们到了撒拉米，就在犹太人的各会堂里宣讲 神的道，还有约翰作他们的助手。 6 他们走遍全岛，到了帕弗，遇见一个犹太人，名叫巴．耶稣，是个术士，又是个假先知。 7 他常常和省长士求．保罗在一起；省长是个聪明人，他请了巴拿巴和扫罗来，要听听 神的道。 8 但术士以吕马（以吕马就是“术士”的意思）与使徒作对，要使省长转离真道。 9 扫罗，也就是保罗，却被圣灵充满，定睛看着他， 10 说：“你这充满各样诡诈和各样奸恶的人，魔鬼的儿子，公义的仇敌！你歪曲了主的正路，还不停止吗？ 11 你看，现在主的手临到你，你要瞎了眼睛，暂时看不见阳光。”他就立刻被雾和黑暗笼罩着，周围找人牵他的手，给他领路。 12 那时，省长看见了所发生的事，就信了，因为他惊奇主的教训。
在彼西底的安提阿
13 保罗和同伴从帕弗开船，来到旁非利亚的别加，约翰却离开他们，回耶路撒冷去了。 14 他们从别加往前走，到了彼西底的安提阿，在安息日进了会堂，就坐下来。 15 宣读了律法和先知书以后，会堂的理事们派人到他们那里来，说：“弟兄们，如果有甚么劝勉众人的话，请说吧！” 16 保罗就站起来，作了一个手势，说：
“以色列人和敬畏 神的人，请听！ 17 以色列民的 神，拣选了我们的祖先；当他们在埃及地寄居的时候， 神抬举这民，用大能（“大能”原文作“高”）的膀臂，把他们从那地领出来； 18 又在旷野容忍（“容忍”有些抄本作“养育”）他们，约有四十年之久； 19 灭了迦南地的七族之后，就把那地分给他们为业； 20 这一切历时约四百五十年。后来 神赐给他们士师，直到撒母耳先知为止。 21 那时，他们要求立一个王， 神就把便雅悯支派中一个人，基士的儿子扫罗，赐给他们作王，共四十年之久。 22 废去扫罗之后，又为他们兴起大卫作王，并且为他作证说：‘我找到耶西的儿子大卫，他是合我心意的人，必遵行我的一切旨意。’ 23 神照着应许，已经从这人的后裔中，给以色列带来了一位救主，就是耶稣。 24 在他来临之前，约翰早已向以色列全民宣讲悔改的洗礼。 25 约翰快要跑完他的路程的时候，说：‘你们以为我是谁？我不是基督。他是在我以后来的，我就是给他解脚上的鞋带也不配。’
26 “弟兄们，亚伯拉罕的子孙，和你们中间敬畏 神的人哪，这救恩之道是传给我们的。 27 住在耶路撒冷的人和他们的官长，因为不认识基督，也不明白每逢安息日所读的先知的话，就把他定了罪，正好应验了先知的话。 28 他们虽然找不出该死的罪状，还是要求彼拉多杀害他。 29 他们把所记载一切关于他的事作成了，就把他从木头上取下来，放在坟墓里。 30 但 神却使他从死人中复活了。 31 有许多日子，他向那些跟他一同从加利利上耶路撒冷的人显现，现在这些人在民众面前作了他的见证人， 32 我们报好信息给你们： 神给列祖的应许， 33 借着耶稣的复活，向我们这些作子孙的应验了。就如诗篇第二篇所记的：
‘你是我的儿子，
我今日生了你。’
34 至于 神使他从死人中复活，不再归于朽坏，他曾这样说：
‘我必把应许大卫的、神圣可靠的恩福赐给你们。’
35 所以他在另一篇说：
‘你必不容你的圣者见朽坏。’
36 “大卫在他自己的世代里，遵行了 神的计划，就睡了，归回他列祖那里，见了朽坏。 37 唯独 神所复活的那一位，没有见过朽坏。 38 所以弟兄们，你们当知道，赦罪之道是由这位耶稣传给你们的。在你们靠摩西律法不能称义的一切事上， 39 信靠他的人就得称义了。 40 你们要小心，免得先知书上所说的临到你们：
41 ‘傲慢的人哪！
你们要看、要惊奇、要灭亡，
因为在你们的日子，我要作一件事，
就算有人告诉你们，你们总是不信。’”
42 保罗和巴拿巴出来的时候，众人请求他们下一个安息日再对他们讲这些话。 43 散会以后，许多犹太人和归信犹太教的虔诚人，跟从了保罗和巴拿巴。两人对他们谈话，勉励他们要恒久住在 神的恩典中。
44 下一个安息日，几乎全城的人都聚了来，要听主的道。 45 犹太人看见这么多人，就满心嫉妒，反驳保罗所讲的，并且毁谤他们。 46 保罗和巴拿巴却放胆说：“ 神的道，先讲给你们听，是应该的。但因为你们弃绝这道，断定自己不配得永生，所以我们现在就转向外族人去了。 47 因为主曾这样吩咐我们说：
‘我已立你作外族人的光，
使你把救恩带到地极去。’”
48 外族人听见了就欢喜，赞美主的道，凡指定得永生的都信了。 49 于是主的道传遍那地。 50 但犹太人唆使虔诚尊贵的妇女和城内的显要，煽动大家迫害保罗和巴拿巴，把他们驱逐出境。 51 两人当众跺掉脚上的尘土，往以哥念去了。 52 门徒满有喜乐，又被圣灵充满。
Acts 13
Maori Bible
13 Na tera etahi poropiti me etahi kaiwhakaako i Anatioka, i te hahi i reira, ko Panapa, ko Himiona i huaina nei ko Nikera, ko Rukia no Hairini, ko Manaena, he mea whakatupu ngatahi nei raua ko Herora tetaraki, me Haora.
2 A, i a ratou e karakia ana ki te Ariki, e nohopuku ana, ka mea te Wairua Tapu, Motuhia mai ki ahau a Panapa raua ko Haora ki te mahi i karangatia ai raua e ahau.
3 Na, ka mutu ta ratou nohopuku me te inoi, a ka popoki iho i o ratou ringa ki a raua, ka tonoa atu raua kia haere.
4 Na, ka tonoa nei raua e te Wairua Tapu, ka haere ki Herukia; a rere atu ana i reira ki Kaiperu.
5 Na, i a raua i Harami, ka kauwhautia e raua te kupu a te Atua i roto i nga whare karakia o nga Hurai: i a raua ano a Hoani hei kaimahi.
6 A, no to ratou putanga i te motu katoa ki Papaho, ka kitea tetahi tangata makutu, he poropiti teka, he Hurai, ko Paraihu te ingoa:
7 I te tino kawana ia, i a Herekiu Paora; he tangata mahara a Herekiu. A karangatia ana e ia a Panapa raua ko Haora, a ka whai kia rongo i te kupu a te Atua.
8 Otira i tautohe ki a raua a Erima te kaimakutu, ko te whakamaoritanga hoki tenei o tona ingoa, i mea kia tahuri ke te tino kawana i te whakapono.
9 Otira ko Haora, e huaina nei ano ko Paora, ki tonu i te Wairua Tapu, i whakamau i ona kanohi ki a ia,
10 A i mea, E te tangata ki tonu i te tinihanga, i nga tini mahi pokanoa, e te tama a te rewera, hoariri o nga mahi tika katoa, e kore ianei e mutu tau whakaputa ke i nga ara tika a te Ariki?
11 Nana, ianei pa ai te ringa o te Ariki ki a koe, ka matapotia koe, e kore e kite i te ra a taka noa tetahi wa. Na taka tonu iho ki a ia he kohu, he pouri; a haereere noa ia ki te rapu kaiarahi mona.
12 A, no te kitenga o te tino kawana i taua meatanga, ka whakapono ia, i miharo hoki ki te ako a te Ariki.
13 Na ka rere atu a Paora ratou ko ona hoa i Papaho, ka u ki Pereka i Pamapuria: a whakarere ana a Hoani i a raua, hoki ana ki Hiruharama.
14 Ko raua ia haere atu ana i Pereka, tae tonu atu ki Anatioka i Pihiria, a tomo ana ki te whare karakia i te ra hapati, noho ana.
15 A ka mutu te korerotanga o te ture, o nga poropiti, ka tono tangata nga rangatira o te whare karakia ki a raua, ka mea, E hoa ma, ki te mea he kupu whakaako ta korua ki te hunga nei, korerotia.
16 Na ka tu a Paora ki runga, ka tawhiri tona ringa, ka mea, E nga tangata o Iharaira, e te hunga e wehi ana ki te Atua, whakarongo mai.
17 Na te Atua o tenei iwi, o Iharaira i whiriwhiri o tatou matua, a whakanuia ana e ia tenei iwi, i a ratou e noho manene ana i te whenua o Ihipa, i runga tonu ano te ringa i arahina mai ai ratou e ia i reira.
18 Na me te mea e wha tekau nga tau i whakamanawanui ai ki to ratou ahua i te koraha.
19 A ka whitu nga iwi ka ngaro i a ia i te whenua o Kanaana, ka hoatu e ia ki a ratou to ratou whenua hei whenua pumau, mo nga tau me te mea e wha rau e rima tekau:
20 A, muri iho i enei mea, ka hoatu e ia ki a ratou he kaiwhakawa, taea noatia a Hamuera poropiti.
21 A muri iho ka tono ratou ki tetahi kingi: a hoatu ana e te Atua ki a ratou a Haora, tama a Kihi, he tangata no te pu o Pineamine, a e wha tekau nga tau.
22 A ka oti ia te whakataka, ka whakaarahia ake e ia a Rawiri hei kingi mo ratou; i whakaaturia hoki ia e ia, i korerotia, Kua kitea e ahau a Rawiri tama a Hehe, he tangata e whakaaetia ana e toku ngakau; ka meatia e ia nga mea katoa e pai ai ahau.
23 He uri no tenei tangata ta te Atua i homai ai ki a Iharaira, he Kaiwhakaora, ko Ihu, hei whakarite i te mea i korerotia ai i mua;
24 No mua tata ano hoki i tona haerenga mai te kauwhautanga a Hoani i te iriiri ripeneta, ki te iwi katoa o Iharaira.
25 A ka tutuki a Hoani ki tona tutukitanga, ka mea ia, Ko wai koia ahau ki to koutou whakaaro? ehara ra ahau i a ia. Engari tera te haere mai ana tetahi i muri i ahau, ko ona hu e kore ahau e tau hei wewete.
26 E oku tuakana, e nga tama o te kawei o Aperahama, e te hunga i roto i a koutou e wehi ana ki te Atua, kua homai te kupu o tenei ora kia whakapuakina ki a tatou.
27 Na ko te hunga e noho ana i Hiruharama, me o ratou rangatira, i te mea kihai ratou i mohio ki a ia, ki nga reo ranei o nga poropiti e korerotia ana i nga hapati katoa, na ratou i whakarite aua reo, i a ratou i tuku i a ia ki te mate.
28 Ahakoa kihai i kitea e ratou he mea e mate ai ia, ka tohe ratou ki a Pirato kia whakamatea ia.
29 A, no ka rite i a ratou nga mea katoa i tuhituhia mona, tangohia iho ana ia i te rakau, whakatakotoria ana ki roto ki te urupa.
30 Heoi na te Atua ia i whakaara ake i te hunga mate:
31 A he maha nga ra i kitea ai ia e te hunga i haere tahi i a ia i Kariri ki Hiruharama, ko ratou nei nga kaiwhakaatu mona ki te iwi.
32 Na he kauwhau tenei na maua ki a koutou i te rongopai, i korerotia i mua ki nga matua,
33 Ara kua mana tenei i te Atua, hei mea ma a tatou tamariki, i a ia i whakaara nei i a Ihu: ko te mea hoki tena i tuhituhia i te rua o nga waiata, Ko taku Tama koe, nonaianei koe i whakatupuria ai e ahau.
34 Ko tana korero ano tenei mona i whakaarahia nei e ia i te hunga mate, te hoki ano ki te pirau i muri iho, ka hoatu e ahau ki a koutou nga mea tapu, nga manaakitanga pono o Rawiri.
35 Koia hoki ia i mea ai i tetahi atu waiata, E kore koe e tuku i tau Mea Tapu kia kite i te pirau.
36 Ko Rawiri hoki i mahi i ta te Atua i pai ai i tona whakatupuranga ano, a moe iho, whakatakotoria ana ki ona matua, kite ana i te pirau:
37 Ko tenei ia i whakaarahia ake nei e te Atua, kihai ia i kite i te pirau.
38 Na kia mohio koutou, e oku tuakana, na tenei tangata te murunga hara e kauwhautia nei ki a koutou;
39 Mana hoki nga tangata katoa, e whakapono ana, ka whakatikaia ai i nga mea katoa, e kore nei koutou e whakatikaia i runga i ta Mohi ture.
40 Na kia mahara, kei pa ki a koutou te mea i korerotia ra e nga poropiti.
41 Titiro mai, e te hunga whakahawea, ka miharo ai, a whakangaromia iho: ka mahia hoki e ahau he mahi i o koutou ra, he mahi e kore e whakaponohia e koutou, ki te whakapuakina e te tangata ki a koutou.
42 Na, i a ratou e puta ana ki waho, ka tohe ratou kia kauwhautia ano aua kupu ki a ratou i to muri iho hapati.
43 Heoi ka pakarukaru te huihui, he tokomaha nga Hurai me nga porohiraiti karakia i aru i a Paora raua ko Panapa: a ka korero raua ki a ratou, ka ako kia mau tonu ratou ki te aroha noa o te Atua.
44 Na i to muri iho hapati ka huihui mai te pa, me te mea ko ratou katoa, ki te whakarongo ki te kupu a te Atua.
45 No te kitenga ia o nga Hurai i te huihui, ka ki ratou i te hae, ka whakakahore ki nga mea i korerotia e Paora, ka whakateka, ka kohukohu.
46 Katahi a Paora raua ko Panapa ka korero maia atu, ka mea, I takoto te tikanga kia matua korerotia te kupu a te Atua ki a koutou: na ka peia nei e koutou, ka whakaaro koutou e kore koutou e tau mo te ora tonu, na ka tahuri atu nei maua ki nga Tau iwi.
47 I penei hoki te ako a te Ariki ki a matou, Kua waiho koe e ahau hei marama ki nga Tauiwi, kia ai koe hei oranga puta noa i nga pito o te whenua.
48 Na, i te rongonga o nga Tauiwi, ka hari, ka whakakororia i te kupu a te Ariki: ka whakapono ano te hunga i rite mo te ora tonu.
49 A paku ana te kupu a te Ariki puta noa i taua whenua.
50 Otira i whakaohokia e nga Hurai nga wahine karakia, rangatira, me nga tangata nunui o te pa, a ara ana i a ratou he whakatoi mo Paora raua ko Panapa, peia ana raua i o ratou wahi.
51 Heoi ruia atu ana e raua te puehu o o raua waewae ki a ratou, a haere ana ki Ikoniuma.
52 Na ki tonu nga akonga i te hari, i te Wairua Tapu.
Acts 13
Revised Standard Version
Barnabas and Saul Commissioned
13 Now in the church at Antioch there were prophets and teachers, Barnabas, Simeon who was called Niger, Lucius of Cyre′ne, Man′a-en a member of the court of Herod the tetrarch, and Saul. 2 While they were worshiping the Lord and fasting, the Holy Spirit said, “Set apart for me Barnabas and Saul for the work to which I have called them.” 3 Then after fasting and praying they laid their hands on them and sent them off.
The Apostles Preach in Cyprus
4 So, being sent out by the Holy Spirit, they went down to Seleu′cia; and from there they sailed to Cyprus. 5 When they arrived at Sal′amis, they proclaimed the word of God in the synagogues of the Jews. And they had John to assist them. 6 When they had gone through the whole island as far as Paphos, they came upon a certain magician, a Jewish false prophet, named Bar-Jesus. 7 He was with the proconsul, Sergius Paulus, a man of intelligence, who summoned Barnabas and Saul and sought to hear the word of God. 8 But El′ymas the magician (for that is the meaning of his name) withstood them, seeking to turn away the proconsul from the faith. 9 But Saul, who is also called Paul, filled with the Holy Spirit, looked intently at him 10 and said, “You son of the devil, you enemy of all righteousness, full of all deceit and villainy, will you not stop making crooked the straight paths of the Lord? 11 And now, behold, the hand of the Lord is upon you, and you shall be blind and unable to see the sun for a time.” Immediately mist and darkness fell upon him and he went about seeking people to lead him by the hand. 12 Then the proconsul believed, when he saw what had occurred, for he was astonished at the teaching of the Lord.
Paul and Barnabas in Antioch of Pisidia
13 Now Paul and his company set sail from Paphos, and came to Perga in Pamphyl′ia. And John left them and returned to Jerusalem; 14 but they passed on from Perga and came to Antioch of Pisid′ia. And on the sabbath day they went into the synagogue and sat down. 15 After the reading of the law and the prophets, the rulers of the synagogue sent to them, saying, “Brethren, if you have any word of exhortation for the people, say it.” 16 So Paul stood up, and motioning with his hand said:
“Men of Israel, and you that fear God, listen. 17 The God of this people Israel chose our fathers and made the people great during their stay in the land of Egypt, and with uplifted arm he led them out of it. 18 And for about forty years he bore with[a] them in the wilderness. 19 And when he had destroyed seven nations in the land of Canaan, he gave them their land as an inheritance, for about four hundred and fifty years. 20 And after that he gave them judges until Samuel the prophet. 21 Then they asked for a king; and God gave them Saul the son of Kish, a man of the tribe of Benjamin, for forty years. 22 And when he had removed him, he raised up David to be their king; of whom he testified and said, ‘I have found in David the son of Jesse a man after my heart, who will do all my will.’ 23 Of this man’s posterity God has brought to Israel a Savior, Jesus, as he promised. 24 Before his coming John had preached a baptism of repentance to all the people of Israel. 25 And as John was finishing his course, he said, ‘What do you suppose that I am? I am not he. No, but after me one is coming, the sandals of whose feet I am not worthy to untie.’
26 “Brethren, sons of the family of Abraham, and those among you that fear God, to us has been sent the message of this salvation. 27 For those who live in Jerusalem and their rulers, because they did not recognize him nor understand the utterances of the prophets which are read every sabbath, fulfilled these by condemning him. 28 Though they could charge him with nothing deserving death, yet they asked Pilate to have him killed. 29 And when they had fulfilled all that was written of him, they took him down from the tree, and laid him in a tomb. 30 But God raised him from the dead; 31 and for many days he appeared to those who came up with him from Galilee to Jerusalem, who are now his witnesses to the people. 32 And we bring you the good news that what God promised to the fathers, 33 this he has fulfilled to us their children by raising Jesus; as also it is written in the second psalm,
‘Thou art my Son,
today I have begotten thee.’
34 And as for the fact that he raised him from the dead, no more to return to corruption, he spoke in this way,
‘I will give you the holy and sure blessings of David.’
35 Therefore he says also in another psalm,
‘Thou wilt not let thy Holy One see corruption.’
36 For David, after he had served the counsel of God in his own generation, fell asleep, and was laid with his fathers, and saw corruption; 37 but he whom God raised up saw no corruption. 38 Let it be known to you therefore, brethren, that through this man forgiveness of sins is proclaimed to you, 39 and by him every one that believes is freed from everything from which you could not be freed by the law of Moses. 40 Beware, therefore, lest there come upon you what is said in the prophets:
41 ‘Behold, you scoffers, and wonder, and perish;
for I do a deed in your days,
a deed you will never believe, if one declares it to you.’”
42 As they went out, the people begged that these things might be told them the next sabbath. 43 And when the meeting of the synagogue broke up, many Jews and devout converts to Judaism followed Paul and Barnabas, who spoke to them and urged them to continue in the grace of God.
44 The next sabbath almost the whole city gathered together to hear the word of God. 45 But when the Jews saw the multitudes, they were filled with jealousy, and contradicted what was spoken by Paul, and reviled him. 46 And Paul and Barnabas spoke out boldly, saying, “It was necessary that the word of God should be spoken first to you. Since you thrust it from you, and judge yourselves unworthy of eternal life, behold, we turn to the Gentiles. 47 For so the Lord has commanded us, saying,
‘I have set you to be a light for the Gentiles,
that you may bring salvation to the uttermost parts of the earth.’”
48 And when the Gentiles heard this, they were glad and glorified the word of God; and as many as were ordained to eternal life believed. 49 And the word of the Lord spread throughout all the region. 50 But the Jews incited the devout women of high standing and the leading men of the city, and stirred up persecution against Paul and Barnabas, and drove them out of their district. 51 But they shook off the dust from their feet against them, and went to Ico′nium. 52 And the disciples were filled with joy and with the Holy Spirit.
