使徒行傳 1
Chinese Standard Bible (Traditional)
引言
1 提阿費羅大人[a]哪,在前一卷書[b]中,我確實寫了有關耶穌開始做的和教導的一切事, 2 一直到他藉著聖靈吩咐了他所揀選的使徒們之後,被接升天的那一天為止。 3 耶穌受難之後,用很多確據向這些人顯明自己是活著的。他在四十天的時間裡向他們顯現,並且講說有關神國的事。
應許賜聖靈
4 耶穌和他們聚集的時候,吩咐他們說:「不要離開耶路撒冷,而要等候父所應許的,就是你們從我聽到的, 5 因為約翰是用水[c]施洗[d],但過不了多少日子,你們就要受聖靈的洗。」
6 於是聚集的時候,他們就問耶穌說:「主啊!你復興以色列國,是否在這時候呢?」
7 耶穌對他們說:「父憑著自己的權柄所定的時候和日期,不是你們可以知道的。 8 不過聖靈臨到你們的時候,你們將得著能力,並且要在耶路撒冷,在猶太和撒馬利亞全地,直到地極,做我的見證人。」
升天
9 說了這些話,耶穌就在他們的注視中被接升天,有一朵雲彩把他接去,他們就看不見他了。 10 正當耶穌離去,他們注目望天的時候,忽然有兩個身穿白衣的人站在他們旁邊, 11 說:「各位加利利人哪,你們為什麼站在這裡[e]望著天呢?這位從你們中間被接到天上去的耶穌,將來也要這樣回來,就像你們看到他升天那樣。」
同心禱告
12 於是他們從那叫做「橄欖園」的山上回到耶路撒冷。這山在耶路撒冷附近,有安息日允許走[f]的路程。 13 他們一進城,就到他們所住的樓上房間。在那裡有
14 這些人與一些婦女以及耶穌的母親瑪麗亞、耶穌的兄弟們一起,都同心合意地恆切禱告[j]。
馬提亞被選
15 就在那些日子裡,聚在一起的人約有一百二十名。彼得在弟兄[k]中間站起來,說: 16 「各位弟兄,那段經文是必須應驗的,就是聖靈藉著大衛的口所預言有關猶大的事。這猶大,領人抓了耶穌; 17 他本來算是我們中間的一個,也在這服事的工作上領受了一份; 18 後來,竟然用這個人不義的酬報買了一塊地。猶大一頭栽倒在那裡,肚腹迸裂,腸子都流出來了。 19 所有住在耶路撒冷的人都知道了這件事,因此那塊地按著他們的本地語言被稱為「哈克達瑪」——這意思是「血田」。 20 因為詩篇上記著:
21 「所以,這些人中必須有一個人和我們同做耶穌復活的見證人;這人是主耶穌在我們中間出入的所有時間裡——就是從約翰的洗禮開始,到耶穌被接升天離開我們的那天為止——一直與我們在一起的。」
23 於是他們推舉了兩個人,就是那叫巴撒巴,又被稱為猶斯托的約瑟,還有馬提亞。 24 他們就禱告說:「主啊,你洞察每個人的心。求你從這兩個人中,指明你所揀選的是哪一位, 25 使他得到這服事和使徒的職份。猶大背棄了這職份,去了自己的地方。」 26 接著,他們為這兩個人抽籤,抽到了馬提亞,他就與那十一個使徒同列。

New American Bible (Revised Edition)
I. The Preparation for the Christian Mission
Chapter 1[a]
The Promise of the Spirit. 1 In the first book,(A) Theophilus, I dealt with all that Jesus did and taught 2 until the day he was taken up, after giving instructions through the holy Spirit to the apostles whom he had chosen.(B) 3 He presented himself alive to them by many proofs after he had suffered, appearing to them during forty days[b] and speaking about the kingdom of God.(C) 4 While meeting with them, he enjoined them not to depart from Jerusalem, but to wait for “the promise of the Father[c] about which you have heard me speak;(D) 5 for John baptized with water, but in a few days you will be baptized with the holy Spirit.”(E)
The Ascension of Jesus. 6 When they had gathered together they asked him, “Lord, are you at this time going[d] to restore the kingdom to Israel?” 7 [e]He answered them,(F) “It is not for you to know the times or seasons that the Father has established by his own authority. 8 [f]But you will receive power when the holy Spirit comes upon you,(G) and you will be my witnesses in Jerusalem, throughout Judea and Samaria, and to the ends of the earth.” 9 When he had said this, as they were looking on, he was lifted up, and a cloud took him from their sight.(H) 10 While they were looking intently at the sky as he was going, suddenly two men dressed in white garments stood beside them.(I) 11 They said, “Men of Galilee, why are you standing there looking at the sky? This Jesus who has been taken up from you into heaven will return in the same way as you have seen him going into heaven.”(J) 12 (K)Then they returned to Jerusalem from the mount called Olivet, which is near Jerusalem, a sabbath day’s journey away.
The First Community in Jerusalem. 13 When they entered the city they went to the upper room where they were staying, Peter and John and James and Andrew, Philip and Thomas, Bartholomew and Matthew, James son of Alphaeus, Simon the Zealot, and Judas son of James. 14 All these devoted themselves with one accord to prayer, together with some women, and Mary the mother of Jesus, and his brothers.(L)
The Choice of Judas’s Successor. 15 During those days Peter stood up in the midst of the brothers (there was a group of about one hundred and twenty persons in the one place). He said, 16 “My brothers, the scripture had to be fulfilled which the holy Spirit spoke beforehand through the mouth of David, concerning Judas, who was the guide for those who arrested Jesus.(M) 17 He was numbered among us and was allotted a share in this ministry. 18 (N)He bought a parcel of land with the wages of his iniquity, and falling headlong, he burst open in the middle, and all his insides spilled out.[g] 19 This became known to everyone who lived in Jerusalem, so that the parcel of land was called in their language ‘Akeldama,’ that is, Field of Blood. 20 For it is written in the Book of Psalms:
‘Let his encampment become desolate,
and may no one dwell in it.’
And:
‘May another take his office.’(O)
21 Therefore, it is necessary that one of the men who accompanied us the whole time the Lord Jesus came and went among us, 22 beginning from the baptism of John until the day on which he was taken up from us, become with us a witness to his resurrection.”(P) 23 So they proposed two, Joseph called Barsabbas, who was also known as Justus, and Matthias. 24 Then they prayed, “You, Lord, who know the hearts of all, show which one of these two you have chosen 25 to take the place in this apostolic ministry from which Judas turned away to go to his own place.” 26 [h](Q)Then they gave lots to them, and the lot fell upon Matthias, and he was counted with the eleven apostles.
Footnotes
- 1:1–26 This introductory material (Acts 1:1–2) connects Acts with the Gospel of Luke, shows that the apostles were instructed by the risen Jesus (Acts 1:3–5), points out that the parousia or second coming in glory of Jesus will occur as certainly as his ascension occurred (Acts 1:6–11), and lists the members of the Twelve, stressing their role as a body of divinely mandated witnesses to his life, teaching, and resurrection (Acts 1:12–26).
- 1:3 Appearing to them during forty days: Luke considered especially sacred the interval in which the appearances and instructions of the risen Jesus occurred and expressed it therefore in terms of the sacred number forty (cf. Dt 8:2). In his gospel, however, Luke connects the ascension of Jesus with the resurrection by describing the ascension on Easter Sunday evening (Lk 24:50–53). What should probably be understood as one event (resurrection, glorification, ascension, sending of the Spirit—the paschal mystery) has been historicized by Luke when he writes of a visible ascension of Jesus after forty days and the descent of the Spirit at Pentecost. For Luke, the ascension marks the end of the appearances of Jesus except for the extraordinary appearance to Paul. With regard to Luke’s understanding of salvation history, the ascension also marks the end of the time of Jesus (Lk 24:50–53) and signals the beginning of the time of the church.
- 1:4 The promise of the Father: the holy Spirit, as is clear from the next verse. This gift of the Spirit was first promised in Jesus’ final instructions to his chosen witnesses in Luke’s gospel (Lk 24:49) and formed part of the continuing instructions of the risen Jesus on the kingdom of God, of which Luke speaks in Acts 1:3.
- 1:6 The question of the disciples implies that in believing Jesus to be the Christ (see note on Lk 2:11) they had expected him to be a political leader who would restore self-rule to Israel during his historical ministry. When this had not taken place, they ask if it is to take place at this time, the period of the church.
- 1:7 This verse echoes the tradition that the precise time of the parousia is not revealed to human beings; cf. Mk 13:32; 1 Thes 5:1–3.
- 1:8 Just as Jerusalem was the city of destiny in the Gospel of Luke (the place where salvation was accomplished), so here at the beginning of Acts, Jerusalem occupies a central position. It is the starting point for the mission of the Christian disciples to “the ends of the earth,” the place where the apostles were situated and the doctrinal focal point in the early days of the community (Acts 15:2, 6). The ends of the earth: for Luke, this means Rome.
- 1:18 Luke records a popular tradition about the death of Judas that differs from the one in Mt 27:5, according to which Judas hanged himself. Here, although the text is not certain, Judas is depicted as purchasing a piece of property with the betrayal money and being killed on it in a fall.
- 1:26 The need to replace Judas was probably dictated by the symbolism of the number twelve, recalling the twelve tribes of Israel. This symbolism also indicates that for Luke (see Lk 22:30) the Christian church is a reconstituted Israel.
Acts 1
King James Version
1 The former treatise have I made, O Theophilus, of all that Jesus began both to do and teach,
2 Until the day in which he was taken up, after that he through the Holy Ghost had given commandments unto the apostles whom he had chosen:
3 To whom also he shewed himself alive after his passion by many infallible proofs, being seen of them forty days, and speaking of the things pertaining to the kingdom of God:
4 And, being assembled together with them, commanded them that they should not depart from Jerusalem, but wait for the promise of the Father, which, saith he, ye have heard of me.
5 For John truly baptized with water; but ye shall be baptized with the Holy Ghost not many days hence.
6 When they therefore were come together, they asked of him, saying, Lord, wilt thou at this time restore again the kingdom to Israel?
7 And he said unto them, It is not for you to know the times or the seasons, which the Father hath put in his own power.
8 But ye shall receive power, after that the Holy Ghost is come upon you: and ye shall be witnesses unto me both in Jerusalem, and in all Judaea, and in Samaria, and unto the uttermost part of the earth.
9 And when he had spoken these things, while they beheld, he was taken up; and a cloud received him out of their sight.
10 And while they looked stedfastly toward heaven as he went up, behold, two men stood by them in white apparel;
11 Which also said, Ye men of Galilee, why stand ye gazing up into heaven? this same Jesus, which is taken up from you into heaven, shall so come in like manner as ye have seen him go into heaven.
12 Then returned they unto Jerusalem from the mount called Olivet, which is from Jerusalem a sabbath day's journey.
13 And when they were come in, they went up into an upper room, where abode both Peter, and James, and John, and Andrew, Philip, and Thomas, Bartholomew, and Matthew, James the son of Alphaeus, and Simon Zelotes, and Judas the brother of James.
14 These all continued with one accord in prayer and supplication, with the women, and Mary the mother of Jesus, and with his brethren.
15 And in those days Peter stood up in the midst of the disciples, and said, (the number of names together were about an hundred and twenty,)
16 Men and brethren, this scripture must needs have been fulfilled, which the Holy Ghost by the mouth of David spake before concerning Judas, which was guide to them that took Jesus.
17 For he was numbered with us, and had obtained part of this ministry.
18 Now this man purchased a field with the reward of iniquity; and falling headlong, he burst asunder in the midst, and all his bowels gushed out.
19 And it was known unto all the dwellers at Jerusalem; insomuch as that field is called in their proper tongue, Aceldama, that is to say, The field of blood.
20 For it is written in the book of Psalms, Let his habitation be desolate, and let no man dwell therein: and his bishoprick let another take.
21 Wherefore of these men which have companied with us all the time that the Lord Jesus went in and out among us,
22 Beginning from the baptism of John, unto that same day that he was taken up from us, must one be ordained to be a witness with us of his resurrection.
23 And they appointed two, Joseph called Barsabas, who was surnamed Justus, and Matthias.
24 And they prayed, and said, Thou, Lord, which knowest the hearts of all men, shew whether of these two thou hast chosen,
25 That he may take part of this ministry and apostleship, from which Judas by transgression fell, that he might go to his own place.
26 And they gave forth their lots; and the lot fell upon Matthias; and he was numbered with the eleven apostles.
Acts 1
New International Version
Jesus Taken Up Into Heaven
1 In my former book,(A) Theophilus, I wrote about all that Jesus began to do and to teach(B) 2 until the day he was taken up to heaven,(C) after giving instructions(D) through the Holy Spirit to the apostles(E) he had chosen.(F) 3 After his suffering, he presented himself to them and gave many convincing proofs that he was alive. He appeared to them(G) over a period of forty days and spoke about the kingdom of God.(H) 4 On one occasion, while he was eating with them, he gave them this command: “Do not leave Jerusalem, but wait(I) for the gift my Father promised, which you have heard me speak about.(J) 5 For John baptized with[a] water,(K) but in a few days you will be baptized with[b] the Holy Spirit.”(L)
6 Then they gathered around him and asked him, “Lord, are you at this time going to restore(M) the kingdom to Israel?”
7 He said to them: “It is not for you to know the times or dates the Father has set by his own authority.(N) 8 But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit comes on you;(O) and you will be my witnesses(P) in Jerusalem, and in all Judea and Samaria,(Q) and to the ends of the earth.”(R)
9 After he said this, he was taken up(S) before their very eyes, and a cloud hid him from their sight.
10 They were looking intently up into the sky as he was going, when suddenly two men dressed in white(T) stood beside them. 11 “Men of Galilee,”(U) they said, “why do you stand here looking into the sky? This same Jesus, who has been taken from you into heaven, will come back(V) in the same way you have seen him go into heaven.”
Matthias Chosen to Replace Judas
12 Then the apostles returned to Jerusalem(W) from the hill called the Mount of Olives,(X) a Sabbath day’s walk[c] from the city. 13 When they arrived, they went upstairs to the room(Y) where they were staying. Those present were Peter, John, James and Andrew; Philip and Thomas, Bartholomew and Matthew; James son of Alphaeus and Simon the Zealot, and Judas son of James.(Z) 14 They all joined together constantly in prayer,(AA) along with the women(AB) and Mary the mother of Jesus, and with his brothers.(AC)
15 In those days Peter stood up among the believers (a group numbering about a hundred and twenty) 16 and said, “Brothers and sisters,[d](AD) the Scripture had to be fulfilled(AE) in which the Holy Spirit spoke long ago through David concerning Judas,(AF) who served as guide for those who arrested Jesus. 17 He was one of our number(AG) and shared in our ministry.”(AH)
18 (With the payment(AI) he received for his wickedness, Judas bought a field;(AJ) there he fell headlong, his body burst open and all his intestines spilled out. 19 Everyone in Jerusalem heard about this, so they called that field in their language(AK) Akeldama, that is, Field of Blood.)
20 “For,” said Peter, “it is written in the Book of Psalms:
and,
21 Therefore it is necessary to choose one of the men who have been with us the whole time the Lord Jesus was living among us, 22 beginning from John’s baptism(AN) to the time when Jesus was taken up from us. For one of these must become a witness(AO) with us of his resurrection.”
23 So they nominated two men: Joseph called Barsabbas (also known as Justus) and Matthias. 24 Then they prayed,(AP) “Lord, you know everyone’s heart.(AQ) Show us(AR) which of these two you have chosen 25 to take over this apostolic ministry, which Judas left to go where he belongs.” 26 Then they cast lots, and the lot fell to Matthias; so he was added to the eleven apostles.(AS)

Hechos 1
Biblia del Jubileo
1 ¶ Primero hemos hablado, oh Teófilo, de todas las cosas que Jesús comenzó a hacer y a enseñar,
2 Hasta el día en que, habiendo dado mandamientos por el Espíritu Santo a los apóstoles que escogió, fue recibido arriba;
3 a los cuales, después de haber padecido, se presentó vivo en muchas pruebas, apareciéndoles por cuarenta días, y hablándoles del Reino de Dios.
4 Y juntándolos, les mandó que no se fueran de Jerusalén, sino que esperaran la Promesa del Padre, que oísteis, dijo, de mí.
5 Porque Juan a la verdad bautizó en agua, mas vosotros seréis bautizados en el Espíritu Santo, no muchos días después de éstos.
6 ¶ Entonces los que se habían juntado le preguntaron, diciendo: Señor, ¿restituirás el Reino a Israel en este tiempo?
7 Y les dijo: No es vuestro saber los tiempos o las sazones que el Padre puso en su sola potestad;
8 mas recibiréis la virtud del Espíritu Santo que vendrá sobre vosotros; y me seréis testigos en Jerusalén, y en toda Judea, y Samaria, y hasta lo último de la tierra.
9 Y habiendo dicho estas cosas, viéndolo ellos, fue alzado; y una nube le recibió y le quitó de sus ojos.
10 Y estando ellos con los ojos puestos en el cielo, entre tanto que él iba, he aquí dos varones se pusieron junto a ellos en vestidos blancos;
11 los cuales también les dijeron: Varones galileos, ¿qué estáis mirando al cielo? Este mismo Jesús que ha sido tomado desde vosotros arriba en el cielo, así vendrá como le habéis visto ir al cielo.
12 ¶ Entonces se volvieron a Jerusalén del monte que se llama del Olivar, el cual está cerca de Jerusalén camino de un sábado.
13 Y entrados, subieron al aposento alto, donde estaban Pedro y Jacobo, y Juan y Andrés, Felipe y Tomás, Bartolomé y Mateo, Jacobo hijo de Alfeo, y Simón Zelote, y Judas hermano de Jacobo.
14 Todos éstos perseveraban unánimes en oración y ruego, con las mujeres, y con María la madre de Jesús, y con sus hermanos.
15 ¶ Y en aquellos días, Pedro, levantándose en medio de los discípulos, dijo (y era el número de los nombres como de ciento veinte):
16 Varones hermanos, convino que se cumpliera la Escritura, la cual dijo antes el Espíritu Santo por la boca de David, acerca de Judas, que fue guía de los que prendieron a Jesús;
17 el cual era contado con nosotros, y tenía suerte o herencia en este ministerio.
18 Este, pues, adquirió un campo con el salario de su iniquidad, y colgándose, se reventó por medio, y todas sus entrañas se derramaron.
19 Y fue notorio a todos los moradores de Jerusalén; de tal manera que aquel campo es llamado en su propia lengua, Acéldama, que es, Campo de sangre.
20 Porque está escrito en el libro de los Salmos: Sea hecha desierta su habitación, y no haya quien more en ella; y: Tome otro su oficio.
21 Conviene, pues, que de estos hombres que han estado juntos con nosotros todo el tiempo en que el Señor Jesús entró y salió entre nosotros,
22 comenzando desde el bautismo de Juan, hasta el día que fue recibido arriba de entre nosotros, uno sea hecho testigo con nosotros de su resurrección.
23 Y señalaron a dos: a José, llamado Barsabás, que tenía por sobrenombre el Justo, y a Matías.
24 Y orando, dijeron: Tú, Señor, que conoces los corazones de todos, muestra cuál escoges de estos dos,
25 para que tome la suerte (o herencia) de este ministerio y del apostolado, del cual se rebeló Judas, por irse a su lugar.
26 Y les echaron suertes, y cayó la suerte sobre Matías; y fue contado con los once apóstoles.
