使徒行傳 23
Chinese Contemporary Bible (Traditional)
23 保羅注視著公會的人，說：「弟兄們，我在上帝面前行事為人一向問心無愧。」 2 大祭司亞拿尼亞一聽，就命那些站在旁邊的人打保羅的嘴。 3 保羅對亞拿尼亞說：「你這偽君子[a]，上帝要擊打你！你坐在那裡不是應當依法審問我嗎？你怎麼違法叫人打我？」
4 站在旁邊的人說：「你竟敢辱罵上帝的大祭司？」 5 保羅說：「弟兄們，我不知道他是大祭司。我知道聖經上說，『不可咒詛百姓的官長。』」
6 保羅發現他們一些是法利賽人，一些是撒都該人，就在公會中高聲說：「弟兄們，我是法利賽人，也是法利賽人的子孫。我因為盼望死人復活，才在這裡受審！」 7 這句話立刻引起法利賽人和撒都該人之間的爭論，公會分成了兩派。 8 因為撒都該人認為沒有復活，也沒有天使和靈，而法利賽人認為這些都有。
9 眾人大聲喧嚷，有幾個法利賽派的律法教師站起來爭辯說：「我們找不出這人有什麼錯處，也許真的有靈或天使跟他說過話。」 10 爭論越來越激烈，千夫長怕保羅會被他們扯碎了，就派人把他從人群中救出來，帶回軍營。
11 當天晚上，主站在保羅身旁對他說：「要勇敢！正如你在耶路撒冷為我作了見證，你也必須在羅馬為我做見證。」
陰謀殺害保羅
12 天亮後，猶太人設下陰謀，並起誓說：「不殺保羅，誓不吃喝！」 13 有四十多人參與了這個陰謀。 14 他們去見祭司長和長老，說：「我們已經發了誓，不殺保羅不吃飯。 15 請你們和公會出面通知千夫長，請他把保羅押到你們這裡來，就說要進一步審訊他。我們準備在他到達之前殺掉他！」
16 保羅的外甥聽到這一陰謀，就去軍營通知保羅。 17 保羅請來一位百夫長，說：「請趕快帶這青年去見千夫長，他有要事稟告！」 18 百夫長領那青年去見千夫長，說：「那囚犯保羅叫我帶這青年來，說有要事稟告。」
19 千夫長就拉著那青年的手走到一旁，私下問他：「你有什麼事要告訴我？」 20 他說：「那些猶太人約好了，要請求你明天帶保羅到公會受審，假裝要詳細審問他的事。 21 你不要答應他們，因為他們有四十多個人會埋伏在半路，並且還起誓說，『不殺保羅就不吃不喝』。他們現在已經準備就緒，就等你答應了。」
22 千夫長聽後，就叫他回去，並叮囑道：「你向我稟告的事，不要告訴別人。」
保羅被押往凱撒利亞
23 於是，千夫長召來兩名百夫長，吩咐道：「預備二百名步兵、七十名騎兵、二百名長槍手，今晚九時出發去凱撒利亞。 24 要給保羅預備坐騎，護送他安全抵達腓利斯總督那裡。」
25 千夫長寫了公文給腓利斯總督，內容如下： 26 「克勞狄·呂西亞敬問腓利斯總督大人安。 27 這人被猶太人抓住，險些被他們殺害。我得知他是羅馬公民，便帶兵去救了他。 28 為了弄清楚他們控告他的緣由，我押他到猶太人的公會受審， 29 發現他被控告與他們的律法有關，他並沒有犯該被監禁或處死的罪。 30 我得知有人準備暗殺他，便立即護送他到你那裡，並通知他的控告者去你那裡告他。」
31 軍兵奉命行事，連夜護送保羅到安提帕底。 32 第二天，由騎兵繼續護送，其餘軍兵返回軍營。 33 他們到了凱撒利亞，將公文呈交總督，把保羅交給他。 34 總督看過公文，便問保羅是哪省的人，得知保羅是基利迦人，就說： 35 「等告你的人來了，我會審理你的案子。」於是下令把保羅關在希律的王府裡。

使徒行传 23
Chinese Contemporary Bible (Simplified)
23 保罗注视着公会的人，说：“弟兄们，我在上帝面前行事为人一向问心无愧。” 2 大祭司亚拿尼亚一听，就命那些站在旁边的人打保罗的嘴。 3 保罗对亚拿尼亚说：“你这伪君子[a]，上帝要击打你！你坐在那里不是应当依法审问我吗？你怎么违法叫人打我？”
4 站在旁边的人说：“你竟敢辱骂上帝的大祭司？” 5 保罗说：“弟兄们，我不知道他是大祭司。我知道圣经上说，‘不可咒诅百姓的官长。’”
6 保罗发现他们一些是法利赛人，一些是撒都该人，就在公会中高声说：“弟兄们，我是法利赛人，也是法利赛人的子孙。我因为盼望死人复活，才在这里受审！” 7 这句话立刻引起法利赛人和撒都该人之间的争论，公会分成了两派。 8 因为撒都该人认为没有复活，也没有天使和灵，而法利赛人认为这些都有。
9 众人大声喧嚷，有几个法利赛派的律法教师站起来争辩说：“我们找不出这人有什么错处，也许真的有灵或天使跟他说过话。” 10 争论越来越激烈，千夫长怕保罗会被他们扯碎了，就派人把他从人群中救出来，带回军营。
11 当天晚上，主站在保罗身旁对他说：“要勇敢！正如你在耶路撒冷为我做了见证，你也必须在罗马为我做见证。”
阴谋杀害保罗
12 天亮后，犹太人设下阴谋，并起誓说：“不杀保罗，誓不吃喝！” 13 有四十多人参与了这个阴谋。 14 他们去见祭司长和长老，说：“我们已经发了誓，不杀保罗不吃饭。 15 请你们和公会出面通知千夫长，请他把保罗押到你们这里来，就说要进一步审讯他。我们准备在他到达之前杀掉他！”
16 保罗的外甥听到这一阴谋，就去军营通知保罗。 17 保罗请来一位百夫长，说：“请赶快带这青年去见千夫长，他有要事禀告！” 18 百夫长领那青年去见千夫长，说：“那囚犯保罗叫我带这青年来，说有要事禀告。”
19 千夫长就拉着那青年的手走到一旁，私下问他：“你有什么事要告诉我？” 20 他说：“那些犹太人约好了，要请求你明天带保罗到公会受审，假装要详细审问他的事。 21 你不要答应他们，因为他们有四十多个人会埋伏在半路，并且还起誓说，‘不杀保罗就不吃不喝’。他们现在已经准备就绪，就等你答应了。”
22 千夫长听后，就叫他回去，并叮嘱道：“你向我禀告的事，不要告诉别人。”
保罗被押往凯撒利亚
23 于是，千夫长召来两名百夫长，吩咐道：“预备二百名步兵、七十名骑兵、二百名长枪手，今晚九时出发去凯撒利亚。 24 要给保罗预备坐骑，护送他安全抵达腓利斯总督那里。”
25 千夫长写了公文给腓利斯总督，内容如下： 26 “克劳狄·吕西亚敬问腓利斯总督大人安。 27 这人被犹太人抓住，险些被他们杀害。我得知他是罗马公民，便带兵去救了他。 28 为了弄清楚他们控告他的缘由，我押他到犹太人的公会受审， 29 发现他被控告与他们的律法有关，他并没有犯该被监禁或处死的罪。 30 我得知有人准备暗杀他，便立即护送他到你那里，并通知他的控告者去你那里告他。”
31 军兵奉命行事，连夜护送保罗到安提帕底。 32 第二天，由骑兵继续护送，其余军兵返回军营。 33 他们到了凯撒利亚，将公文呈交总督，把保罗交给他。 34 总督看过公文，便问保罗是哪省的人，得知保罗是基利迦人，就说： 35 “等告你的人来了，我会审理你的案子。”于是下令把保罗关在希律的王府里。

Acts 23
New Matthew Bible
Paul comes before the council. Debate arises among the people. The high captain delivers him. God comforts him.
23 Paul beheld the council and said, Men and brethren, I have lived in all good conscience before God until this day. 2 Then the high priest Ananias commanded those who stood by to strike him on the mouth.
3 Then Paul said to him, God smite you, you painted wall! Do you sit and judge me according to the law, and command me to be struck contrary to the law?
4 And those who stood by said, Do you revile God’s high priest?
5 Then Paul said, I did not know, brethren, that he was the high priest. For it is written: You shall not curse the ruler of your people.
6 When Paul perceived that the one part were Sadducees and the other Pharisees, he cried out in the council, Men and brethren, I am a Pharisee, the son of a Pharisee. It is concerning the hope and resurrection from death that I am on trial.
7 And when he had said this, there arose a quarrel between the Pharisees and the Sadducees, and the assembly was divided. 8 For the Sadducees say that there is no resurrection, and also no angels or spirits. But the Pharisees grant both. 9 And there arose a great cry, and the scribes who were of the Pharisees’ party arose and protested, saying, We find no evil in this man. And if a spirit or an angel has appeared to him, let us not strive against God.
10 And when great controversy arose, the captain, fearing lest Paul should be pulled apart by them, commanded the soldiers to go down and take him from among them, and to bring him into the castle. 11 The night following, the Lord stood by him and said, Be of good cheer, Paul. For as you have testified of me in Jerusalem, so must you bear witness at Rome.
12 When day came, certain of the Jews gathered themselves together and made a vow, saying that they would neither eat nor drink till they had killed Paul. 13 There were about forty who conspired this together. 14 And they went to the chief priests and elders and said, We have bound ourselves with a vow that we will eat nothing until we have slain Paul. 15 Now therefore, petition the high captain and the council to bring him forth to us tomorrow, as though we want to better understand something concerning him. But we, before he comes near, are ready meanwhile to kill him.
16 When the son of Paul’s sister heard of their plan to lie in wait, he went and entered into the castle and told Paul. 17 And Paul called one of the centurions to him and said, Bring this young man to the high captain, because he has a certain thing to tell him. 18 And he brought him and said, Paul the prisoner called me to him, and asked me to bring this young man to you, who has a certain matter to tell you of.
19 The high captain took him by the hand and went apart with him privately, and asked him, What have you to say to me? 20 And he said, The Jews have resolved to ask you to bring forth Paul tomorrow into the council, as though they want to make further enquiries of him. 21 But do not go along with them, because there will be more than forty men lying in wait for him, who have bound themselves with a vow that they will neither eat nor drink till they have killed him. And now they are ready and waiting for your word.
22 The high captain let the young man depart, and instructed him, See you tell no one that you have told these things to me. 23 And he called to him two centurions, saying, Make ready 200 soldiers to go to Caesarea, and 70 horsemen and 200 spearmen, at the third hour of the night. 24 And provide horses to put Paul on, and bring him safe to Felix, the governor. 25 And he wrote a letter in this manner:
26 Claudius Lysias to the most noble Governor Felix, sends greetings. 27 This man was taken by the Jews, and was near to being killed by them. Then I came with soldiers and rescued him, and learned that he was a Roman. 28 And when I wished to know the offence for which they accused him, I brought him forth into their council. 29 There I could see that he was accused concerning questions of their law, but was not guilty of anything worthy of death or of bonds. 30 Afterward, when it was reported to me that the Jews were lying in wait for the man, I sent him straightaway to you, and directed his accusers, if they had anything against him, to tell it to you. Farewell.
31 Then the soldiers, as it was commanded them, took Paul and brought him by night to Antipatris. 32 The next day they left horsemen to go with him and returned to the castle.
33 When the horsemen got to Caesarea, they delivered the epistle to the governor and presented Paul before him. 34 When the governor had read the letter, he asked what province he was from. And when he understood that he was from Cilicia, he said, 35 I will hear you when your accusers have come also.
And he commanded him to be kept in Herod’s palace.
