使徒行传 8
Chinese New Version (Traditional)
8 司提反被害，掃羅也欣然同意。
掃羅迫害教會
從那天起，耶路撒冷的教會大受迫害；除了使徒以外，所有的人都分散到猶太和撒瑪利亞各地。 2 有些虔誠的人安葬了司提反，為他大大悲痛一番。 3 掃羅卻殘害教會，逐家進去，連男帶女拉去坐監。
福音傳到撒瑪利亞
4 那些分散的人，經過各地，傳揚福音真道。 5 腓利下到撒瑪利亞城，宣講基督。 6 群眾聽了腓利所講的，看見他所行的神蹟，就同心聽從了他的話。 7 許多人有污靈附在他們身上，污靈大聲喊叫了之後，就出來了；還有許多癱子瘸子都醫好了。 8 在那城裡，就大有歡樂。
9 有一個人名叫西門，從前在城裡行過邪術，使撒瑪利亞的居民驚奇，他又自命不凡， 10 城裡大大小小都聽從他，說：“這就是那稱為‘ 神的大能’的人。” 11 他們聽從他，因為他長久用邪術，使他們驚奇。 12 等到腓利向他們傳了 神的國的福音，和耶穌基督的名，他們就信了腓利，連男帶女都受了洗。 13 連西門自己也信了，他受洗之後，常和腓利在一起，看見所發生的神蹟和大能的事，就覺得很驚奇。
14 在耶路撒冷的使徒，聽見撒瑪利亞居民領受了 神的道，就差派彼得和約翰到他們那裡去。 15 二人到了，就為大家禱告，要讓他們接受聖靈。 16 因為聖靈還沒有降在他們任何一個身上，他們只是受了洗歸入主耶穌的名下。 17 於是使徒為他們按手，他們就受了聖靈。 18 西門看見使徒一按手，就有聖靈賜下來，就拿錢給他們， 19 說：“請把這權柄也給我，叫我為誰按手，誰就可以受聖靈。” 20 彼得對他說：“你的銀子跟你一同滅亡吧！因為你以為 神的恩賜，是可以用錢買的。 21 你和這件事是毫無關係的，因為你在 神面前存心不正。 22 所以，你要悔改離棄這罪惡，要祈求主，也許你心中的意念可以得到赦免。 23 我看出你正在苦膽之中，邪惡捆綁著你。” 24 西門回答：“請你們為我求主，好讓你們所說的，沒有一樣臨到我身上。”
25 使徒作了見證，講了主的道，就回耶路撒冷去，一路上在撒瑪利亞人的許多村莊裡傳揚福音。
腓利對太監傳講耶穌
26 有主的一位使者對腓利說：“起來，向南走，往那從耶路撒冷下迦薩的路上去。”那條路在曠野裡。 27 他就動身去了。有一個衣索匹亞人，是衣索匹亞女王干大基有權力的太監，掌管女王全部國庫。他上耶路撒冷去禮拜。 28 他回去的時候，坐在車上讀以賽亞先知的書。 29 聖靈對腓利說：“你往前去，靠近那車子！” 30 腓利就跑過去，聽見他讀以賽亞先知的書，就問他：“你所讀的，你明白嗎？” 31 他說：“沒有人指導我，怎能明白呢？”於是請腓利上車，同他坐在一起。 32 他所讀的那段經文，就是：
“他像羊被牽去宰殺，
又像羊羔在剪毛的人面前無聲，
他總是這樣不開口。
33 他受屈辱的時候，
得不到公平的審判，
誰能說出他的身世呢？
因為他的生命從地上被奪去。”
34 太監對腓利說：“請問先知這話是指誰說的？指他自己呢？還是指別人？” 35 腓利就開口，從這段經文開始，向他傳講耶穌。 36 他們一路走，到了有水的地方，太監說：“你看，這裡有水，有甚麼可以阻止我受洗呢？”（有些抄本在此有第37節：“腓利說：‘你若全心相信，就可以受洗。’他回答說：‘我信耶穌基督是 神的兒子。’”） 38 於是太監吩咐停車，腓利和他兩人下到水中，腓利就給他施洗。 39 他們從水裡上來的時候，主的靈就把腓利提去了，太監再也看不見他，就歡歡喜喜地上路。 40 後來有人在亞鎖都遇見腓利。他走遍各城，傳講福音，直到該撒利亞。

教會受迫害
8 當時，掃羅也贊成殺死司提凡。從那天起，耶路撒冷的教會開始遭到極大的迫害。除了使徒之外，門徒都分散到猶太和撒瑪利亞各地。 2 有些虔誠人將司提凡埋葬了，為他大聲痛哭。
3 掃羅卻在摧毀教會，他挨家挨戶搜尋，把男女信徒抓進監裡。
腓利傳揚福音
4 但那些逃往各地的信徒逃到哪裡，就將福音傳到哪裡。 5 腓利來到撒瑪利亞城宣講基督。 6 城裡的人耳聞目睹他所行的神蹟，都聚精會神地聽他講道。 7 當時有許多人被污鬼附身，那些污鬼大聲喊叫著被趕了出來。還有不少癱子和瘸子也被醫好了。 8 城裡洋溢著歡樂的氣氛。
術士歸主
9 有個名叫西門的術士，向來妄自尊大，曾用邪術使撒瑪利亞人驚奇不已。 10 無論貴賤，眾人都聽從他，稱他為「上帝的大能者」。 11 他們聽從他，因為他長期用邪術迷惑他們。 12 後來，他們相信了腓利所傳關於上帝的國度和耶穌基督的福音，男男女女都接受了洗禮。 13 西門本人也信了基督，接受了洗禮，並常常追隨腓利左右。腓利所行的神蹟奇事令他非常驚奇。
14 耶路撒冷的使徒聽說撒瑪利亞人接受了上帝的道，就派彼得和約翰去那裡。 15 二人到了，為那些信徒禱告，好讓他們領受聖靈， 16 因為他們只是奉耶穌的名受了洗，聖靈還沒有降在他們身上。 17 使徒把手按在他們身上，他們就領受了聖靈。
18 西門看見使徒把手一按在人身上，就有聖靈賜下來，便拿錢給使徒， 19 說：「請把這能力也給我吧，以便我把手按在誰身上，就使誰領受聖靈。」
20 彼得責備他說：「你和你的錢都一同毀滅吧！因為你以為可以用錢買上帝的恩賜！ 21 你在上帝面前心術不正，休想在我們的事工上有份。 22 你要悔改，離棄邪惡，向主禱告，或許主會赦免你心中的邪念。 23 我看得出你正因為嫉妒而心裡充滿了苦澀，被罪惡捆綁。」
24 西門說：「請為我求求主，免得我遭受你們所說的刑罰。」
25 彼得和約翰為主做見證，傳講主的道。之後，他們啟程回耶路撒冷，沿途又在撒瑪利亞各村莊傳揚福音。
太監歸主
26 有一天，主的天使對腓利說：「起來，向南走，往耶路撒冷通往迦薩的路去。」那條路很荒涼。 27 腓利立刻動身，結果在那條路上遇見一個衣索匹亞的太監。他是衣索匹亞女王甘大基手下的重臣，負責管理國庫。他剛從耶路撒冷參加敬拜回來， 28 正坐在車上誦讀以賽亞先知的書。 29 聖靈吩咐腓利：「趕上去，貼近那輛馬車！」
30 腓利跑上前，聽見太監在誦讀以賽亞先知的書，就問：「你明白所讀的經文嗎？」
31 他說：「沒有人為我解釋，我怎能明白呢？」他就請腓利上車和他一起坐。 32 他剛才念的那段經文是：
「祂默然不語，
像被人牽去宰殺的羔羊，
又如在剪毛人手下一聲不吭的綿羊。
33 祂忍受恥辱，
無人為祂主持公道，
誰能明白那個世代呢？
因為祂的生命竟然被奪去。」
34 太監問腓利：「請問先知是在說誰？在說他自己還是在說別人？」 35 腓利就從這段經文入手向他傳耶穌的福音。 36 他們往前走的時候，經過一處有水的地方，太監說：「你看，這裡有水，我可以在這裡接受洗禮嗎？」 37 腓利說：「只要你全心相信，當然可以。」太監說：「我相信耶穌基督是上帝的兒子！」
38 於是，太監吩咐停車，二人一同下到水裡，腓利為他施洗。 39 他們從水裡上來時，主的靈把腓利帶走了。太監看不見腓利了，就繼續前行，滿心歡喜。 40 後來，腓利出現在亞鎖都。他走遍那裡，在各城各鄉傳揚福音，直到凱撒利亞。

Acts 8

8 And Saul approved of his murder.
Saul Persecutes the Church
That very day the church in Jerusalem began to suffer cruel persecution. All the believers, except the apostles, were scattered throughout the provinces of Judea and Samaria. 2 Some devout men buried Stephen, mourning for him with loud cries.
3 (A)But Saul tried to destroy the church; going from house to house, he dragged out the believers, both men and women, and threw them into jail.
The Gospel Is Preached in Samaria
4 The believers who were scattered went everywhere, preaching the message. 5 Philip went to the principal city[a] in Samaria and preached the Messiah to the people there. 6 The crowds paid close attention to what Philip said, as they listened to him and saw the miracles that he performed. 7 Evil spirits came out from many people with a loud cry, and many paralyzed and lame people were healed. 8 So there was great joy in that city.
9 A man named Simon lived there, who for some time had astounded the Samaritans with his magic. He claimed that he was someone great, 10 and everyone in the city, from all classes of society, paid close attention to him. “He is that power of God known as ‘The Great Power,’” they said. 11 They paid this attention to him because for such a long time he had astonished them with his magic. 12 But when they believed Philip's message about the good news of the Kingdom of God and about Jesus Christ, they were baptized, both men and women. 13 Simon himself also believed; and after being baptized, he stayed close to Philip and was astounded when he saw the great wonders and miracles that were being performed.
14 The apostles in Jerusalem heard that the people of Samaria had received the word of God, so they sent Peter and John to them. 15 When they arrived, they prayed for the believers that they might receive the Holy Spirit. 16 For the Holy Spirit had not yet come down on any of them; they had only been baptized in the name of the Lord Jesus. 17 Then Peter and John placed their hands on them, and they received the Holy Spirit.
18 Simon saw that the Spirit had been given to the believers when the apostles placed their hands on them. So he offered money to Peter and John, 19 and said, “Give this power to me too, so that anyone I place my hands on will receive the Holy Spirit.”
20 But Peter answered him, “May you and your money go to hell, for thinking that you can buy God's gift with money! 21 You have no part or share in our work, because your heart is not right in God's sight. 22 Repent, then, of this evil plan of yours, and pray to the Lord that he will forgive you for thinking such a thing as this. 23 For I see that you are full of bitter envy and are a prisoner of sin.”
24 Simon said to Peter and John, “Please pray to the Lord for me, so that none of these things you spoke of will happen to me.”
25 After they had given their testimony and proclaimed the Lord's message, Peter and John went back to Jerusalem. On their way they preached the Good News in many villages of Samaria.
Philip and the Ethiopian Official
26 An angel of the Lord said to Philip, “Get ready and go south[b] to the road that goes from Jerusalem to Gaza.” (This road is not used nowadays.)[c] 27-28 So Philip got ready and went. Now an Ethiopian eunuch, who was an important official in charge of the treasury of the queen of Ethiopia, was on his way home. He had been to Jerusalem to worship God and was going back home in his carriage. As he rode along, he was reading from the book of the prophet Isaiah. 29 The Holy Spirit said to Philip, “Go over to that carriage and stay close to it.” 30 Philip ran over and heard him reading from the book of the prophet Isaiah. He asked him, “Do you understand what you are reading?”
31 The official replied, “How can I understand unless someone explains it to me?” And he invited Philip to climb up and sit in the carriage with him. 32 (B)The passage of scripture which he was reading was this:
“He was like a sheep that is taken to be slaughtered,
like a lamb that makes no sound when its wool is cut off.
He did not say a word.
33 He was humiliated, and justice was denied him.
No one will be able to tell about his descendants,
because his life on earth has come to an end.”
34 The official asked Philip, “Tell me, of whom is the prophet saying this? Of himself or of someone else?” 35 Then Philip began to speak; starting from this passage of scripture, he told him the Good News about Jesus. 36 As they traveled down the road, they came to a place where there was some water, and the official said, “Here is some water. What is to keep me from being baptized?” 37 [d]
38 The official ordered the carriage to stop, and both Philip and the official went down into the water, and Philip baptized him. 39 When they came up out of the water, the Spirit of the Lord took Philip away. The official did not see him again, but continued on his way, full of joy. 40 Philip found himself in Azotus; he went on to Caesarea, and on the way he preached the Good News in every town.

8 And Saul(A) approved of their killing him.
The Church Persecuted and Scattered
On that day a great persecution broke out against the church in Jerusalem, and all except the apostles were scattered(B) throughout Judea and Samaria.(C) 2 Godly men buried Stephen and mourned deeply for him. 3 But Saul(D) began to destroy the church.(E) Going from house to house, he dragged off both men and women and put them in prison.
Philip in Samaria
4 Those who had been scattered(F) preached the word wherever they went.(G) 5 Philip(H) went down to a city in Samaria and proclaimed the Messiah there. 6 When the crowds heard Philip and saw the signs he performed, they all paid close attention to what he said. 7 For with shrieks, impure spirits came out of many,(I) and many who were paralyzed or lame were healed.(J) 8 So there was great joy in that city.
Simon the Sorcerer
9 Now for some time a man named Simon had practiced sorcery(K) in the city and amazed all the people of Samaria. He boasted that he was someone great,(L) 10 and all the people, both high and low, gave him their attention and exclaimed, “This man is rightly called the Great Power of God.”(M) 11 They followed him because he had amazed them for a long time with his sorcery. 12 But when they believed Philip as he proclaimed the good news of the kingdom of God(N) and the name of Jesus Christ, they were baptized,(O) both men and women. 13 Simon himself believed and was baptized. And he followed Philip everywhere, astonished by the great signs and miracles(P) he saw.
14 When the apostles in Jerusalem heard that Samaria(Q) had accepted the word of God,(R) they sent Peter and John(S) to Samaria. 15 When they arrived, they prayed for the new believers there that they might receive the Holy Spirit,(T) 16 because the Holy Spirit had not yet come on any of them;(U) they had simply been baptized in the name of the Lord Jesus.(V) 17 Then Peter and John placed their hands on them,(W) and they received the Holy Spirit.(X)
18 When Simon saw that the Spirit was given at the laying on of the apostles’ hands, he offered them money 19 and said, “Give me also this ability so that everyone on whom I lay my hands may receive the Holy Spirit.”
20 Peter answered: “May your money perish with you, because you thought you could buy the gift of God with money!(Y) 21 You have no part or share(Z) in this ministry, because your heart is not right(AA) before God. 22 Repent(AB) of this wickedness and pray to the Lord in the hope that he may forgive you for having such a thought in your heart. 23 For I see that you are full of bitterness and captive to sin.”
24 Then Simon answered, “Pray to the Lord for me(AC) so that nothing you have said may happen to me.”
25 After they had further proclaimed the word of the Lord(AD) and testified about Jesus, Peter and John returned to Jerusalem, preaching the gospel in many Samaritan villages.(AE)
Philip and the Ethiopian
26 Now an angel(AF) of the Lord said to Philip,(AG) “Go south to the road—the desert road—that goes down from Jerusalem to Gaza.” 27 So he started out, and on his way he met an Ethiopian[a](AH) eunuch,(AI) an important official in charge of all the treasury of the Kandake (which means “queen of the Ethiopians”). This man had gone to Jerusalem to worship,(AJ) 28 and on his way home was sitting in his chariot reading the Book of Isaiah the prophet. 29 The Spirit told(AK) Philip, “Go to that chariot and stay near it.”
30 Then Philip ran up to the chariot and heard the man reading Isaiah the prophet. “Do you understand what you are reading?” Philip asked.
31 “How can I,” he said, “unless someone explains it to me?” So he invited Philip to come up and sit with him.
32 This is the passage of Scripture the eunuch was reading:
“He was led like a sheep to the slaughter,
and as a lamb before its shearer is silent,
so he did not open his mouth.
33 In his humiliation he was deprived of justice.
Who can speak of his descendants?
For his life was taken from the earth.”[b](AL)
34 The eunuch asked Philip, “Tell me, please, who is the prophet talking about, himself or someone else?” 35 Then Philip began(AM) with that very passage of Scripture(AN) and told him the good news(AO) about Jesus.
36 As they traveled along the road, they came to some water and the eunuch said, “Look, here is water. What can stand in the way of my being baptized?”(AP) [37] [c] 38 And he gave orders to stop the chariot. Then both Philip and the eunuch went down into the water and Philip baptized him. 39 When they came up out of the water, the Spirit of the Lord suddenly took Philip away,(AQ) and the eunuch did not see him again, but went on his way rejoicing. 40 Philip, however, appeared at Azotus and traveled about, preaching the gospel in all the towns(AR) until he reached Caesarea.(AS)
