约翰福音 1
Chinese New Version (Simplified)
道成肉身
1 太初有道,道与 神同在,道就是 神。 2 这道太初与 神同在。 3 万有是借着他造的;凡被造的,没有一样不是借着他造的。 4 在他里面有生命,(有些抄本第3、4节或译:“万有是借着他造的,没有一样不是借着他造的;凡被造的,都在他里面有生命……”)这生命就是人的光。 5 光照在黑暗中,黑暗不能胜过光。
6 有一个人,名叫约翰,是 神所差来的。 7 他来是要作见证,就是为光作见证,使众人借着他可以相信。 8 他不是那光,而是要为那光作见证。 9 那光来到世界,是普照世人的真光。 10 他在世界,世界也是借着他造的,世界却不认识他。 11 他到自己的地方来,自己的人却不接受他。 12 凡接受他的,就是信他名的人,他就赐给他们权利,成为 神的儿女。 13 他们不是从血统生的,不是从肉身的意思生的,也不是从人意生的,而是从 神生的。
14 道成了肉身,住在我们中间,满有恩典和真理。我们见过他的荣光,正是从父而来的独生子的荣光。
15 约翰为他作见证,大声说:“这一位就是我所说的:‘那在我以后来的,位分比我高,因为他本来是在我以前的。’” 16 从他的丰盛里我们都领受了,而且恩上加恩。 17 律法是借着摩西颁布的,恩典和真理却是借着耶稣基督而来的。 18 从来没有人见过 神,只有在父怀里的独生子把他彰显出来。
施洗约翰的见证(A)
19 以下是约翰的见证:犹太人从耶路撒冷派祭司和利未人到约翰那里,问他:“你是谁?” 20 约翰并不否认,坦白地承认说:“我不是基督。” 21 他们又问:“那么你是谁?是以利亚吗?”他说:“我不是。”“是那位先知吗?”他回答:“不是。” 22 于是他们再问:“你是谁?好让我们回复派我们来的人。你说你自己是谁?” 23 他说:“我就是在旷野呼喊者的声音:‘修直主的路!’正如以赛亚先知所说的。” 24 这些人是法利赛人派来的。 25 他们问约翰:“你既然不是基督,不是以利亚,也不是那位先知,那么你为甚么施洗呢?” 26 约翰回答:“我是用水施洗,但有一位站在你们中间,是你们不认识的; 27 他是在我以后来的,我就是给他解鞋带也不配。” 28 这些事发生在约旦河东的伯大尼,约翰施洗的地方。
神的羊羔
29 第二天,约翰见耶稣迎面而来,就说:“看哪, 神的羊羔,是除去世人的罪孽的! 30 这一位就是我所说的:‘有一个人,是在我以后来的,位分比我高,因为他本来是在我以前的。’ 31 我本来不认识他,但为了要把他显明给以色列人,因此我来用水施洗。” 32 约翰又作见证说:“我曾看见圣灵,好象鸽子从天上降下来,停留在他的身上。 33 我本来不认识他,但那差我来用水施洗的对我说:‘你看见圣灵降下来,停留在谁身上,谁就是用圣灵施洗的。’ 34 我看见了,就作见证说:‘这就是 神的儿子。’”
呼召第一批门徒(B)
35 过了一天,约翰和他的两个门徒又站在那里。 36 约翰看见耶稣走过的时候,就说:“看哪, 神的羊羔!” 37 那两个门徒听见他的话,就跟从了耶稣。 38 耶稣转过身来,看见他们跟着,就问:“你们要甚么?”他们说:“拉比,你在哪里住?”(“拉比”的意思就是“老师”。) 39 他说:“你们来看吧!”于是他们就去看他所住的地方。那一天他们就和耶稣住在一起;那时大约是下午四点钟。 40 听了约翰的话而跟从耶稣的那两个人,一个是西门.彼得的弟弟安得烈。 41 他先找到自己的哥哥西门,告诉他:“我们遇见弥赛亚了!”(“弥赛亚”的意思就是“基督”。) 42 安得烈就带他到耶稣那里。耶稣定睛看着他,说:“你是约翰的儿子西门,你要称为矶法。”(“矶法”翻译出来就是“彼得”。)
呼召腓力和拿但业
43 再过一天,耶稣决定往加利利去;他遇见腓力,就对他说:“来跟从我!” 44 腓力是伯赛大人,与安得烈和彼得同乡。 45 腓力找到拿但业,告诉他:“摩西在律法书上所写的,和众先知所记的那位,我们已经遇见了,他就是约瑟的儿子拿撒勒人耶稣。” 46 拿但业说:“拿撒勒还能出甚么好的吗?”腓力说:“你来看!” 47 耶稣看见拿但业向他走过来,就论到他说:“看哪,这的确是个以色列人,他心里没有诡诈。” 48 拿但业问他:“你怎么认识我呢?”耶稣回答:“腓力还没有招呼你,你在无花果树下的时候,我就看见你了。” 49 拿但业说:“拉比,你是 神的儿子,你是以色列的王!” 50 耶稣说:“因为我告诉你‘我看见你在无花果树下’,你就信了吗?你还要看见比这些更大的事。” 51 又对他说:“我实实在在告诉你们,你们要看见天开了, 神的众使者在人子的身上,上去下来。”
約翰福音 1
Chinese Contemporary Bible (Traditional)
生命之道
1 太初,道已經存在,道與上帝同在,道就是上帝。 2 太初,道就與上帝同在。 3 萬物都是藉著祂造的[a],受造之物沒有一樣不是藉著祂造的。 4 祂裡面有生命,這生命是人類的光。 5 光照進黑暗裡,黑暗不能勝過[b]光。
6 有一個人名叫約翰,是上帝差來的。 7 他來是要為光做見證,叫世人可以藉著他而相信。 8 約翰不是那光,他來是為那光做見證。 9 那照亮世人的真光來到了世上。 10 祂來到自己所創造的世界,世界卻不認識祂。 11 祂來到自己的地方,自己的人卻不接納祂。 12 但所有接納祂的,就是那些信祂的人,祂就賜給他們權利成為上帝的兒女。 13 這些人既不是從人的血緣關係生的,也不是從人的情慾或意願生的,而是從上帝生的。
14 道成為肉身,住在我們中間,充滿了恩典和真理。我們見過祂的榮耀,正是父獨一兒子的榮耀。
15 約翰為祂做見證的時候,高聲喊道:「這就是我以前所說的那位,『祂在我以後來卻比我位分高,因為祂在我之前已經存在了。』」 16 從祂的豐盛裡,我們一次又一次地領受了恩典。 17 因為律法是藉著摩西頒佈的,恩典和真理是藉著耶穌基督賜下來的。 18 從來沒有人見過上帝,只有父懷中的獨一上帝[c]把祂顯明出來。
施洗者約翰的見證
19 以下是約翰的見證。猶太人從耶路撒冷派祭司和利未人來找約翰,查問他是誰。 20 約翰毫不隱瞞地說:「我不是基督。」
21 他們問:「那麼,你是誰?是以利亞嗎?」
他說:「不是。」
他們又問:「你是那位先知嗎?」
他說:「也不是。」
22 他們又追問:「你到底是誰?我們好回覆差我們來的人。你自己說你是誰?」
23 他說:「我就是在曠野大聲呼喊『修直主的路』的那個人,正如以賽亞先知所言。」
24 派來的人當中有幾個法利賽人[d],他們問他: 25 「你既然不是基督,不是以利亞,也不是那位先知,那你為什麼給人施洗呢?」
26 約翰答道:「我是用水施洗,但在你們中間有一位你們不認識的, 27 祂雖然是在我以後來的,我就是給祂解鞋帶也不配。」 28 這事發生在約旦河東岸的伯大尼,那裡是約翰給人施洗的地方。
上帝的羔羊
29 次日,約翰看見耶穌走過來,就說:「看啊!上帝的羔羊,除去世人罪惡的! 30 這就是我以前所說的那位,『有一個人在我以後來卻比我位分高,因為祂在我之前已經存在了。』 31 我以前並不認識祂,現在我用水給人施洗,是要把祂顯明給以色列人。」
32 約翰又做見證說:「我看見聖靈好像鴿子一樣從天降下,住在祂身上。 33 我本來不認識祂,但那位差我來用水給人施洗的告訴我,『你看見聖靈降下,住在誰身上,誰就是用聖靈給人施洗的。』 34 我看見了,便做見證,祂就是上帝的兒子。」
第一批門徒
35 再次日,約翰和兩個門徒站在那裡, 36 他看見耶穌經過,就說:「看啊!這是上帝的羔羊!」 37 兩個門徒聽見他的話,便跟從了耶穌。 38 耶穌轉過身來,看見他們跟著,便問:「你們想要什麼?」
他們說:「老師[e],你住在哪裡?」
39 耶穌說:「你們來看吧。」他們便跟著去看耶穌住的地方。到了那裡大約下午四點了,他們就住在耶穌那裡。 40 聽見約翰的話後跟從耶穌的兩個人中,有一個是西門·彼得的弟弟安得烈。 41 他首先去找他哥哥西門,說:「我們找到彌賽亞了!」彌賽亞的意思是基督[f]。 42 他帶著西門去見耶穌。
耶穌看著西門,對他說:「約翰的兒子西門,你要改名為磯法。」磯法的意思是彼得。
43 又過了一天,耶穌決定去加利利。祂遇見了腓力,就對他說:「跟從我!」 44 腓力是伯賽大人,與彼得、安得烈是同鄉。 45 腓力去找拿但業,對他說:「我們遇見了摩西律法書和先知書記載的那位!祂是約瑟的兒子耶穌,從拿撒勒來的。」
46 拿但業說:「拿撒勒還會出什麼好東西?」
腓力說:「你來看看吧!」
47 耶穌看見拿但業走過來,就指著他說:「看啊,這是個真正的以色列人!他心裡毫無詭詐。」
48 拿但業問耶穌:「你怎麼會認識我?」
耶穌答道:「腓力還沒有去找你之前,我就看見你在無花果樹下了。」
49 拿但業說:「老師,你是上帝的兒子!你是以色列的王!」
50 耶穌說:「我說看見你在無花果樹下,你就信我嗎?將來你還要看見比這更大的事。 51 我實實在在地告訴你們,你們會看見天門敞開,上帝的天使以人子[g]為梯上上下下。」
John 1
Wycliffe Bible
1 In the beginning was the word, and the word was at God, and God was the word. [In the beginning was the word, that is, God's Son, and the word was at God, and God was the word.]
2 This was in the beginning at God.
3 All things were made by him, and without him was made nothing [nought], that thing that was made.
4 In him was life, and the life was the light of men;
5 and the light shineth in darknesses, and [the] darknesses comprehended not it.
6 A man was sent from God, to whom the name was John.
7 This man came into witnessing, that he should bear witnessing of the light, that all men should believe by him.
8 He was not that light, but that he should bear witnessing of the light.
9 There was a very light, which lighteneth each man that cometh into this world [that lighteth each man coming into this world].
10 He was in the world, and the world was made by him, and the world knew him not.
11 He came into his own things, and his received him not.
12 But how many ever received him, he gave to them power to be made the sons of God, to them that believe in his name;
13 the which not of bloods [which not of bloods], neither of the will of flesh, neither of the will of man, but be born of God.
14 And the word was made man, and dwelled among us, and we have seen the glory of him, as the glory of the one begotten Son of the Father, full of grace and of truth. [And the word, that is, God's Son, is made flesh, or man, and hath dwelled in us, and we have seen the glory of him, the glory as of the one begotten of the Father, the Son full of grace and truth.]
15 John beareth witnessing of him, and crieth, and saith, This is he of whom I said, He that shall come after me, is made before me [saying, This it was, whom I said, He that cometh after me, is made before me], for he was before me;
16 and of the plenty of him we all have taken, and grace for grace.
17 For the law was given by Moses; but grace and truth is made by Jesus Christ.
18 No man saw ever God [No man ever saw God], but the one begotten Son, that is in the bosom of the Father, he hath told out.
19 And this is the witnessing of John, when Jews sent from Jerusalem priests and deacons to him, that they should ask him, Who art thou?
20 [And] He acknowledged, and denied not, and he acknowledged, For I am not Christ.
21 And they asked him, What then? Art thou Elias? And he said, I am not. Art thou a prophet [Art thou the prophet]? And he answered, Nay.
22 Therefore they said to him, Who art thou? That we give an answer to these that sent us. What sayest thou of thyself?
23 He said, I am a voice of a crier in desert [I am a voice of a man crying in desert], Dress ye the way of the Lord, as Esaias, the prophet, said.
24 And they that were sent, were of the Pharisees.
25 And they asked him, and said to him, What then baptizest thou, if thou art not Christ, neither Elias, neither a prophet?
26 John answered to them, and said [saying], I baptize in water, but in the middle of you hath stand one, that ye know not [whom ye know not];
27 he it is, that shall come after me [he it is, that is to coming after me], that was made before me, of whom I am not worthy to loose the thong of his shoe.
28 These things were done in Bethany beyond Jordan, where John was baptizing.
29 Another day John saw Jesus coming to him, and he said, Lo! the lamb of God; lo! he that doeth away the sins of the world.[a]
30 This is he, that I said of, After me is come a man [This is he, of whom I said, After me cometh a man], which was made before me; for he was rather than I.
31 And I knew him not, but that he be showed in Israel, therefore I came baptizing in water.
32 And John bare witnessing, and said, I saw the Spirit coming down as a culver from heaven, and dwelled on him. [And John bare witnessing, saying, For I saw the Spirit coming down, as a culver from heaven, and dwelling upon him.]
33 And I knew him not; but he that sent me to baptize in water, said to me, On whom thou seest the Spirit coming down [Upon whom thou shalt see the Spirit coming down], and dwelling on him, this is he, that baptizeth in the Holy Ghost.
34 And I saw, and bare witnessing, that this is the Son of God.
35 Another day John stood [Again John stood in another day], and two of his disciples;
36 and he beheld Jesus walking, and saith [and he beholding Jesus walking, saith], Lo! the lamb of God.
37 And two disciples heard him speaking, and [they] followed Jesus.
38 And Jesus turned, and saw them following him, and saith to them, What seek ye? And they said to him, Rabbi, that is to say [that is interpreted], Master, where dwellest thou?
39 And he saith to them, Come ye, and see. And they came, and saw where he dwelled [He saith to them, Come, and see ye. They came, and saw where he dwelt]; and dwelt with him that day. And it was as the tenth hour.
40 And Andrew, the brother of Simon Peter, was one of the twain, that heard of John, and had followed him.
41 This found first his brother Simon, and he said to him, We have found Messias, that is to say, Christ; [This found first his brother Simon, and he saith to him, We have found Messias, that is interpreted Christ;]
42 and he led him to Jesus. And Jesus beheld him, and said, Thou art Simon, the son of Jona; thou shalt be called Cephas, that is to say [that is interpreted], Peter.
43 And on the morrow he would go out into Galilee, and he found Philip; and he saith to him [and Jesus saith to him], Follow thou me.
44 Philip was of Bethsaida, the city of Andrew and of Peter [the city of Andrew and Peter].
45 Philip found Nathanael, and said to him [and he saith to him], We have found Jesus, the son of Joseph, of Nazareth, whom Moses wrote in the law and the prophets.
46 And Nathanael said to him, Of Nazareth may some good thing be? Philip said to him [Philip saith to him], Come, and see.
47 Jesus saw Nathanael coming to him, and said of him [and saith of him], Lo! verily a man of Israel, in whom is no guile.
48 Nathanael said to him [Nathanael saith to him], Whereof hast thou known me? Jesus answered, and said to him, Before that Philip called thee, when thou were under the fig tree, I saw thee.
49 Nathanael answered to him, and said [and saith], Rabbi, thou art the Son of God, thou art king of Israel.
50 Jesus answered, and said to him, For I said to thee, I saw thee under the fig tree, thou believest; thou shalt see more than these things [thou shalt see more things than these].
51 And he said to them, Truly, truly, I say to you, ye shall see heaven opened, and the angels of God ascending up and coming down on man's Son [and the angels of God ascending up and coming down upon man's Son].
