使徒行傳 13
Revised Chinese Union Version (Traditional Script) Shen Edition
巴拿巴和掃羅奉差遣
13 在安提阿的教會中，有幾位先知和教師，就是巴拿巴和稱為尼結的西面、古利奈人路求，與希律分封王一起長大的馬念，和掃羅。 2 他們在事奉主和禁食的時候，聖靈說：「要為我分派巴拿巴和掃羅去做我召他們做的工作。」 3 於是他們禁食禱告後，給巴拿巴和掃羅按手，然後派遣他們走了。
在塞浦路斯傳道
4 他們既蒙聖靈差遣，就下到西流基，從那裏坐船往塞浦路斯去， 5 到了撒拉米，就在猶太人各會堂裏宣講 神的道，也有約翰作他們的幫手。 6 他們走遍全島，直到帕弗，在那裏遇見一個術士—猶太人的假先知，名叫巴耶穌。 7 這人常和士求‧保羅省長在一起。士求‧保羅是個通達人，他請巴拿巴和掃羅來，要聽 神的道。 8 只是術士以呂馬（他的名字翻出來就是行法術的意思）敵對使徒，設法使省長遠離這信仰。 9 掃羅，又名保羅，被聖靈充滿，定睛看他， 10 說：「你這充滿各樣詭詐奸惡，魔鬼的兒子，一切正義的仇敵，你還不停止扭曲主的正道嗎？ 11 現在你看，主的手臨到你身上，你會瞎眼，暫時看不見日光。」立刻迷濛和黑暗籠罩着他，他到處摸索，求人拉着手領他。 12 省長看見所發生的事就信了，因對主的教導感到驚奇。
在彼西底的安提阿傳道
13 保羅和他的同伴從帕弗開船，來到旁非利亞的別加，約翰卻離開他們，回耶路撒冷去了。 14 他們從別加往前行，來到彼西底的安提阿。在安息日，他們進了會堂就坐下。 15 在讀完了律法和先知的書，會堂主管們叫人過去，對他們說：「二位弟兄，你們若有甚麼勸勉眾人的話，請說。」
16 保羅就站起來，做個手勢，說：「諸位以色列人和一切敬畏 神的人，請聽。 17 這以色列民的 神揀選了我們的祖宗，當百姓寄居埃及的時候抬舉他們，用大能的手領他們從那地出來。 18 他在曠野容忍[a]他們，約有四十年。 19 他消滅了迦南地七族的人後，把那地分給他們為業， 20 約有四百五十年。此後[b]，他給他們設立士師，直到撒母耳先知的時候。 21 從那時起，他們要求立一個王， 神就將便雅憫支派中基士的兒子掃羅給他們作王，共四十年。 22 他廢了掃羅之後，就興起大衛作他們的王，又為他作見證說：『我尋得耶西的兒子大衛，他是合我心意的人，他要遵行我一切的旨意。』 23 從這人的後裔中， 神已經照着所應許的為以色列人興起一位救主，就是耶穌。 24 在他沒有出來以前，約翰已向以色列全民宣講悔改的洗禮。 25 約翰快走完他的人生路程時，說：『你們以為我是誰？我不是[c]；但是有一位在我以後來的，我就是解他腳上的鞋帶也不配。』
26 「諸位弟兄—亞伯拉罕的子孫和你們中間敬畏 神的人哪，這救世的道是傳給我們的。 27 耶路撒冷的居民和他們的官長，因為不認識這基督，也不明白每安息日所讀的先知的書，把他定了死罪，正應驗了先知的預言。 28 雖然他們查不出他有該死的罪狀，還是要求彼拉多把他殺了。 29 他們既實現了經上指着他所記的一切話，就從木頭上把他取下來，放在墳墓裏。 30 神卻使他從死人中復活。 31 有許多日子，他向那些從加利利同他上耶路撒冷的人顯現，這些人如今在民間成為他的見證人。 32 我們報好信息給你們，就是那應許祖宗的話， 33 神已經向我們這些作他們兒女的[d]應驗，使耶穌復活了。正如《詩篇》第二篇上記着：
『你是我的兒子，
我今日生了你。』
34 論到 神使他從死人中復活，不再歸於朽壞，他曾這樣說：
『我必將所應許大衛那聖潔、
可靠的恩典賜給你們。』
35 所以他也在另一篇說：
『你必不讓你的聖者見朽壞。』
36 大衛在世的時候，遵行了 神的旨意就長眠了[e]，歸到他祖宗那裏，已見朽壞； 37 惟獨 神使他復活的那一位，他並未見朽壞。 38 所以弟兄們，你們當知道：赦罪的道是由這人傳給你們的， 39 你們靠摩西的律法在不得稱義的一切事上，每一個信靠這位耶穌的都得稱義了。 40 所以，你們要小心，免得先知書上所說的臨到你們：
41 『要觀看，你們這些藐視的人，
要驚訝，要滅亡，
因為在你們的日子，我行一件事，
雖有人告訴你們，你們總是不信。』」
42 他們走出會堂的時候，眾人請他們在下一個安息日再講這些話給他們聽。 43 散會以後，有許多猶太人和敬虔的皈依猶太教的人跟從了保羅和巴拿巴。二人對他們講話，勸他們務要恆久倚靠 神的恩典。
44 到下一個安息日，全城的人幾乎都聚集起來，要聽主的道[f]。 45 但猶太人看見這麼多的人，就滿心嫉妒，辯駁保羅所說的話，並且毀謗他。 46 於是保羅和巴拿巴放膽說：「 神的道本應先傳給你們；只因你們棄絕這道，斷定自己不配得永生，我們就轉向外邦人。 47 因為主曾這樣吩咐我們：
『我已經立你作萬邦之光，
使你施行我的救恩，直到地極。』」
48 外邦人聽見這話很歡喜，讚美主的道，凡被指定得永生的人都信了。 49 於是主的道傳遍了那一帶地方。 50 但猶太人挑唆虔敬尊貴的婦女和城內有名望的人，迫害保羅和巴拿巴，把他們趕出境外。 51 二人對着眾人跺掉腳上的塵土，然後往以哥念去了。 52 門徒滿心喜樂，又被聖靈充滿。
Gevurot 13
Orthodox Jewish Bible
13 Now there was in Antioch there among the Moshiach’s Kehillah nevi’im and morim: Bar-Nabba, and Shimon called Niger, and Lucius from Cyrene, and Menachem (brought up with Herod the tetrarch) and Rav Sha’ul.
2 They were ministering to Adonoi and under a tzom when the Ruach Hakodesh said to them, “Set apart for Me Bar-Nabba and Sha’ul for the avodas kodesh ministry to which I have called them.” [DIVREY HAYAMIM BAIS 13:10; 35:3; YECHEZKEL 40:46; 44:16; 45:4]
3 Then, having continued the tzom and having davened and having laid their hands upon them, they sent them off.
4 They, then, having been sent out by the Ruach Hakodesh, went down to Seleucia, and from there sailed away to Cyprus.
5 Having arrived in Salamis, they were proclaiming the dvar Hashem in the shuls, with Yochanan Markos also as ozer (helper).
6 Having passed through the whole island as far as Paphos, they found a certain ish, a magician, a Jewish navi sheker, by name of Bar-Yehoshua,
7 who was with the proconsul Sergius Paulus, an ish of seichel. This one, having summoned Bar-Nabba and Sha’ul, sought to hear the dvar Hashem.
8 But Elymas the magician was opposing them—for thus is his name translated—and was seeking to be mashpia on the proconsul (seeking to sway him to think undesirably) about the emunah (faith). [YESHAYAH 30:11]
9 But Rav Sha’ul, the one also called Paulos, having been filled with the Ruach Hakodesh, gazed at him,
10 and said, “O ish full of all mirmah (deceit, fraud) and all resha, ben haSatan, oyev (enemy) of all Tzedek, will you not cease making crooked the straight paths of Hashem? [HOSHEA 14:9]
11 “Now—hinei—the yad Hashem is on you, and you will be blind, not seeing the shemesh (sun) for awhile.” Immediately mistiness and choshech (darkness) fell on him, and, going about, he was seeking someone to lead him by the hand [SHEMOT 9:3; SHMUEL ALEF 5:6,7; TEHILLIM 32:4; BERESHIS 19:10,11; MELACHIM BAIS 6:18]
12 Then, the proconsul, having seen what had happened, had emunah, being mishpoyel (standing in awe) at the torah about Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach Adoneinu.
13 And having put out to sea from Paphos, Rav Sha’ul and those with him came to Perga of Pamphylia. But Yochanan (Markos), having left them, returned to Yerushalayim.
14 But having gone on from Perga, they came to Pisidian Antioch, and, having entered the shul on Shabbos, they sat down.
15 After the kri’at HaTorah (reading of the Sefer Torah) and the kri’at HaNevi’im, the Rashei Beit HaKnesset sent to them, saying “Anashim Achim, if there is any dvar hachizzuk among you to the people, say it.”
16 And having got up and having motioned with his hand, Rav Sha’ul said, “Anshei Yisroel, and Yirei Elohim, listen!
17 “Elohei HaAm Yisroel chose Avoteinu. Hashem made the people great during their sojourn in Eretz Mitzrayim, and with an uplifted arm He led them out of it, [SHEMOT 6:1,6,7; 14:8; DEVARIM 7:6-8]
18 “and lav davka (approximately) ARBA’IM SHANAH He put up with them in the desert [DEVARIM 1:31; BAMIDBAR 14:33,34; TEHILLIM 95:10; SHEMOT 16:35]
19 “and having destroyed SHIVAH GOYIM in eretz Kena’an, he gave as a nachalah (an inheritance) their land [DEVARIM 7:1; YEHOSHUA 14:2; 19:51; TEHILLIM 78:55]
20 “during lav davka (approximately) arba me’ot vachamashim shanah. After these things, He gave shofetim until Shmuel HaNavi. [SHOFETIM 2:16; SHMUEL ALEF 3:19,20]
21 “And then they asked for a melech, and Hashem gave to them Sha’ul Ben Kish, an ish from the shevet of Binyamin, for arba’im shanah [SHMUEL ALEF 8:5,19; 10:1; 9:1,2]
22 ”And after having removed Sha’ul, Hashem raised up Dovid as a Melech for them. About Dovid also Hashem testified, saying ‘I found Dovid Ben Yishai an ISH KILEVAVO [“a man after His (G-d’s) heart”] who will do all My ratzon.’ [SHMUEL ALEF 15:23; 16:13; TEHILLIM 89:20; SHMUEL ALEF 13:14; YIRMEYAH 3:15; YESHAYAH 44:28]
23 “From the zera (seed) of this man, according to the havtachah (promise), Hashem has brought to Yisroel a Moshi’a (Savior), Yehoshua. [SHMUEL BAIS 7:11; 22:51; YIRMEYAH 30:9]
24 “Now previously, before the coming of Moshiach, Yochanan proclaimed to Klal Yisroel a tevilah of teshuva.
25 "Now as Yochanan was completing his course, he was saying, 'What do you suppose me to be? I am not! But, hinei, he comes after me of whom I am not worthy to untie the sandal of his feet."
26 "Achim, Bnei Mishpochah Avraham, and Yirei Elohim, it is to us that the dvar of this Yeshu’ah HaGedolah (Great Deliverance) was sent out. [TEHILLIM 107:20]
27 "For the ones dwelling in Yerushalayim and their moshlim (rulers) did not have da’as of this one or of the dvarim of the Nevi’im being read every Shabbos; they fulfilled these dvarim by condemning him.
28 "Even without finding a cause for a mishpat mavet, they asked Pilate that he be done away with.
29 "When they finished all the things having been written about him, he was taken down from HaEtz (DEVARIM 21:23), and they put him into a kever (tomb, Isa 53:9).
30 "But Hashem made him to stand up alive again from the Mesim,
31 "and he was seen over many yamim by the ones having come up with him from the Galil to Yerushalayim who now are his edim to the people.
32 "And we are preaching to you the Besuras HaGeulah of the Havtachah made to Avoteinu, [YESHAYAH 40:9; 52:7]
33 "That Hashem has fulfilled this havtachah for us, their banim, having made to stand up alive again Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach Yehoshua, as also in the Tehillim it has been written, BENI ATAH, ANI HAYOM YELIDETICHA ("You are My son; today I have become your father"). [TEHILLIM 2:7]
34 "And that He made him to stand up alive again from the Mesim, no longer to return to decay, thus he has said, ‘I will give you CHASEDEI DOVID HANE’EMANIM. [YESHAYAH 55:3 TARGUM HASHIVIM]
35 "Therefore, also elsewhere in the Tehillim, he says LO TITEN CHASIDECHA LIR’OT SHACHAT ("You will not allow your Chasid (Moshiach) to undergo decay"). [TEHILLIM 15:10; 16:10 TARGUM HASHIVIM]
36 "For Dovid, after in his own dor (generation) he had served birtzon Hashem, fell asleep, and VAYISHKAV DOVID IM AVOTAV (“and Dovid rested with his fathers”) and he experienced decay. [SHMUEL BAIS 7:12; MELACHIM ALEF 2:10; SHOFETIM 2:10; DIVREY HAYAMIM BAIS 29:28]
37 "But whom Hashem made to stand up alive again did not experience decay.
38 "Let it be known, therefore, to you, Anashim Achim, that through this one, selicha (forgiveness) of chatta’im (averos [sins]) is proclaimed to you; and from all things of which by the Torah of Moshe Rabbenu you were not able to be justified,
39 "By this one everyone having emunah is justified.
40 "Be shomer then that the thing having been spoken by the Nevi’im (Prophets) may not come upon you,
41 "Look," scoffers, "And be amazed and marvel, and stand in awe" and perish, "because I am working a work in your yamim, a work which you may by no means believe if someone should tell you." [CHABAKUK 1:5 TARGUM HASHIVIM]
42 And as Rav Sha’ul and Bar-Nabba were going out, the people were begging that these dvarim be spoken to them the following Shabbos.
43 And when the gathering was dismissed, rabbim (many) of the Yehudim and of the Gerim (Proselytes) with chassidus followed Rav Sha’ul and Bar-Nabba, who urged them to remain in the Chen v’Chesed Hashem.
44 Now on the following Shabbos nearly all the city was assembled to hear the dvar Hashem.
45 But when the Yehudim saw the multitudes, they were filled with kinah and were choilek (taking issue) and speaking keneged (against, in opposition to) the things being spoken by Rav Sha’ul, and they were committing Chillul Hashem.
46 And having spoken with ometz lev (boldness), Rav Sha’ul and Bar-Nabba said, ‘To you it was necessary rishonah (first) for the dvar Hashem to be spoken; vi-bahlt (since) you reject it, and judge yourselves not worthy of Chayyei Olam, hinei, we are turning to the Goyim.
47 "For thus has Hashem commanded us, "I have placed you as a light to the Nations, that you should bring salvation to the end of the earth." [Isa 49:6]
48 Now hearing this, the Goyim rejoiced with simcha gedolah and were praising the dvar Hashem. And as many as had been destined to Chayyei Olam became ma’aminim hameshichiyim.
49 And the dvar Hashem was spreading through the entire region.
50 But the Yehudim aroused the chashuve (prominent) G-d fearing nashim and the gontser machers of the city, and they instigated redifah keneged Rav Sha’ul and Bar Nabba, and they drove them from out of their territory.
51 And having shaken off the dust of their feet against them, Rav Sha’ul and Bar- Nabba came to Iconium;
52 And the talmidim were being filled with simcha and the Ruach Hakodesh.
Acts 13
King James Version
13 Now there were in the church that was at Antioch certain prophets and teachers; as Barnabas, and Simeon that was called Niger, and Lucius of Cyrene, and Manaen, which had been brought up with Herod the tetrarch, and Saul.
2 As they ministered to the Lord, and fasted, the Holy Ghost said, Separate me Barnabas and Saul for the work whereunto I have called them.
3 And when they had fasted and prayed, and laid their hands on them, they sent them away.
4 So they, being sent forth by the Holy Ghost, departed unto Seleucia; and from thence they sailed to Cyprus.
5 And when they were at Salamis, they preached the word of God in the synagogues of the Jews: and they had also John to their minister.
6 And when they had gone through the isle unto Paphos, they found a certain sorcerer, a false prophet, a Jew, whose name was Barjesus:
7 Which was with the deputy of the country, Sergius Paulus, a prudent man; who called for Barnabas and Saul, and desired to hear the word of God.
8 But Elymas the sorcerer (for so is his name by interpretation) withstood them, seeking to turn away the deputy from the faith.
9 Then Saul, (who also is called Paul,) filled with the Holy Ghost, set his eyes on him.
10 And said, O full of all subtilty and all mischief, thou child of the devil, thou enemy of all righteousness, wilt thou not cease to pervert the right ways of the Lord?
11 And now, behold, the hand of the Lord is upon thee, and thou shalt be blind, not seeing the sun for a season. And immediately there fell on him a mist and a darkness; and he went about seeking some to lead him by the hand.
12 Then the deputy, when he saw what was done, believed, being astonished at the doctrine of the Lord.
13 Now when Paul and his company loosed from Paphos, they came to Perga in Pamphylia: and John departing from them returned to Jerusalem.
14 But when they departed from Perga, they came to Antioch in Pisidia, and went into the synagogue on the sabbath day, and sat down.
15 And after the reading of the law and the prophets the rulers of the synagogue sent unto them, saying, Ye men and brethren, if ye have any word of exhortation for the people, say on.
16 Then Paul stood up, and beckoning with his hand said, Men of Israel, and ye that fear God, give audience.
17 The God of this people of Israel chose our fathers, and exalted the people when they dwelt as strangers in the land of Egypt, and with an high arm brought he them out of it.
18 And about the time of forty years suffered he their manners in the wilderness.
19 And when he had destroyed seven nations in the land of Chanaan, he divided their land to them by lot.
20 And after that he gave unto them judges about the space of four hundred and fifty years, until Samuel the prophet.
21 And afterward they desired a king: and God gave unto them Saul the son of Cis, a man of the tribe of Benjamin, by the space of forty years.
22 And when he had removed him, he raised up unto them David to be their king; to whom also he gave their testimony, and said, I have found David the son of Jesse, a man after mine own heart, which shall fulfil all my will.
23 Of this man's seed hath God according to his promise raised unto Israel a Saviour, Jesus:
24 When John had first preached before his coming the baptism of repentance to all the people of Israel.
25 And as John fulfilled his course, he said, Whom think ye that I am? I am not he. But, behold, there cometh one after me, whose shoes of his feet I am not worthy to loose.
26 Men and brethren, children of the stock of Abraham, and whosoever among you feareth God, to you is the word of this salvation sent.
27 For they that dwell at Jerusalem, and their rulers, because they knew him not, nor yet the voices of the prophets which are read every sabbath day, they have fulfilled them in condemning him.
28 And though they found no cause of death in him, yet desired they Pilate that he should be slain.
29 And when they had fulfilled all that was written of him, they took him down from the tree, and laid him in a sepulchre.
30 But God raised him from the dead:
31 And he was seen many days of them which came up with him from Galilee to Jerusalem, who are his witnesses unto the people.
32 And we declare unto you glad tidings, how that the promise which was made unto the fathers,
33 God hath fulfilled the same unto us their children, in that he hath raised up Jesus again; as it is also written in the second psalm, Thou art my Son, this day have I begotten thee.
34 And as concerning that he raised him up from the dead, now no more to return to corruption, he said on this wise, I will give you the sure mercies of David.
35 Wherefore he saith also in another psalm, Thou shalt not suffer thine Holy One to see corruption.
36 For David, after he had served his own generation by the will of God, fell on sleep, and was laid unto his fathers, and saw corruption:
37 But he, whom God raised again, saw no corruption.
38 Be it known unto you therefore, men and brethren, that through this man is preached unto you the forgiveness of sins:
39 And by him all that believe are justified from all things, from which ye could not be justified by the law of Moses.
40 Beware therefore, lest that come upon you, which is spoken of in the prophets;
41 Behold, ye despisers, and wonder, and perish: for I work a work in your days, a work which ye shall in no wise believe, though a man declare it unto you.
42 And when the Jews were gone out of the synagogue, the Gentiles besought that these words might be preached to them the next sabbath.
43 Now when the congregation was broken up, many of the Jews and religious proselytes followed Paul and Barnabas: who, speaking to them, persuaded them to continue in the grace of God.
44 And the next sabbath day came almost the whole city together to hear the word of God.
45 But when the Jews saw the multitudes, they were filled with envy, and spake against those things which were spoken by Paul, contradicting and blaspheming.
46 Then Paul and Barnabas waxed bold, and said, It was necessary that the word of God should first have been spoken to you: but seeing ye put it from you, and judge yourselves unworthy of everlasting life, lo, we turn to the Gentiles.
47 For so hath the Lord commanded us, saying, I have set thee to be a light of the Gentiles, that thou shouldest be for salvation unto the ends of the earth.
48 And when the Gentiles heard this, they were glad, and glorified the word of the Lord: and as many as were ordained to eternal life believed.
49 And the word of the Lord was published throughout all the region.
50 But the Jews stirred up the devout and honourable women, and the chief men of the city, and raised persecution against Paul and Barnabas, and expelled them out of their coasts.
51 But they shook off the dust of their feet against them, and came unto Iconium.
52 And the disciples were filled with joy, and with the Holy Ghost.
