约翰福音 12
Chinese Standard Bible (Simplified)
在伯大尼被膏抹
12 逾越节前六天，耶稣来到[a]拉撒路所在的伯大尼，就是他使拉撒路从死人中复活的地方。 2 有些人在那里为耶稣预备晚餐，玛妲正伺候着。拉撒路也在与耶稣坐席的人当中。 3 这时候，玛丽亚拿了一斤[b]极其贵重的纯哪哒香液，膏抹耶稣的脚，又用自己的头发擦干，屋子里就充满了香液的气味。
4 他的一个门徒，就是后来要出卖耶稣的那个加略人犹大却说： 5 “为什么不把这香液卖三百个银币[c]去分给穷人呢？” 6 他说这话，并不是因为顾念穷人，而是因为他是个贼。他管钱包，常常拿走其中所存的。
7 耶稣说：“由她吧！她是为我安葬的日子而保存的。 8 要知道，你们总是有穷人与你们在一起，但你们不总是有我。”
决定杀害拉撒路
9 有一大群犹太人知道耶稣在那里，就来了。他们不仅是为了耶稣的缘故，也是为了看拉撒路，就是耶稣使他从死人中复活的那个人。 10 于是祭司长们就商议，连拉撒路也要杀掉， 11 因为有许多犹太人为了拉撒路的缘故，离开他们，信了耶稣。
光荣进圣城
12 第二天，一大群上来过节的人听说耶稣要来到耶路撒冷， 13 就拿着棕榈树枝出去迎接他，欢呼说：
“和散那！
奉主名而来的那一位，
以色列的王啊，
是蒙祝福的！”[d]
14 耶稣找来一头驴驹，骑在上面，正如经上所记： 15 “锡安的女儿啊，不要怕！看哪，你的王骑着驴驹来了！”[e]
16 耶稣的门徒们当初不明白这些事，等到耶稣得了荣耀以后，才想起这些话是指着他写的，人们果然向他做了这些事。 17 当耶稣呼唤拉撒路从坟墓中出来，使他从死人中复活的时候，那些与耶稣在一起的众人就见证了这件事。 18 众人之所以也去迎接他，是因为他们听说他行了这神迹。
19 于是法利赛人互相说：“可见你们真没用！看，这世界都跟随他去了。”
预言受难
20 当时，上来过节敬拜的人中，有一些希腊人。 21 这些人来到加利利的伯赛达人腓力那里，求他说：“先生，我们想见耶稣。”
22 腓力去告诉安得烈，安得烈和腓力就去告诉耶稣。 23 耶稣回答他们，说：“人子得荣耀的时候到了！ 24 我确确实实地告诉你们：一粒麦子如果不落在地里死去，它仍然是一粒；如果死了，就结出很多子粒[f]来。 25 爱惜自己生命的，就失去生命；在这世上恨恶自己生命的，将保全生命到永生。 26 一个人如果要服事我，就当跟从我；我在哪里，我的仆人也将要在哪里。如果有人服事我，父将尊重他。
27 “现在我的灵魂烦扰。我该说什么呢？说‘父啊，救我脱离这时刻’吗？但我正是为了这时刻而来的。 28 父啊，愿你荣耀你的名[g]！”
这时候，有声音从天上传来：“我已经荣耀了我的名，还要再荣耀！”
29 站在那里的众人听见了，就说：“打雷了。”另有人说：“是天使在对他说话。”
30 耶稣就回答说：“这声音不是为我，而是为你们来的。 31 现在，是这世界受审判的时候了；现在，世界的那掌权者要被赶出去了。 32 至于我，当我从地上被举起来的时候，就会吸引所有的人归向我。” 33 耶稣说这话是指自己将要怎样死。
34 众人回答他：“我们从律法中听到，基督是永远长存的。你怎么说‘人子必须被举起来’呢？这‘人子’到底是谁？”
35 耶稣说：“光在你们当中的时候不多了。要趁着有光的时候行走，免得黑暗抓住你们！因为在黑暗里行走的人，不知道自己往哪里去。 36 你们要趁着有光的时候信这光，好使你们成为光明的儿女。”耶稣说了这些话，就离开他们被隐藏了。
应验以赛亚的预言
37 耶稣虽然在他们面前行了这么多神迹，他们仍然不信他。 38 这是为要应验先知以赛亚所说的话：
39 他们之所以不能相信，是因为以赛亚又说过：
40 “神使他们瞎了眼，
硬了心，
免得他们眼睛看见，
心里明白，
回转过来，
我就使他们痊愈。”[j]
41 以赛亚说了这些话，是因为看见了耶稣的荣耀[k]，就讲论他的事。
42 不过甚至是首领当中也有许多信耶稣的。但是为了法利赛人的缘故，他们不敢承认，免得被赶出会堂， 43 这是因为他们喜爱人的荣耀，胜过喜爱神的荣耀。
耶稣宣告使命
44 耶稣喊着说：“信我的人，不是信我，而是信派我来的那一位。 45 谁看见我，就是看见派我来的那一位。 46 我就是光。我来到世上，好让所有信我的人不住在黑暗里。 47 如果有人听了我的话却不遵守[l]，我不定他的罪；因为我来，不是为了定世人的罪，而是为了拯救世人。 48 拒绝我，又不接受我话的人，自有定他罪的：我所讲的话语，在末日要定他的罪。 49 这是因为我没有凭自己讲话，而是派我来的父给了我命令，要我说什么和讲什么。 50 我知道他的命令就是永恒的生命。所以我所讲的，正是照着父所告诉我的来讲的。”

Chinese Contemporary Bible (Traditional)
香膏抹腳
12 逾越節前六天，耶穌來到伯大尼，就是祂叫拉撒路從死裡復活的村子。 2 村裡有人為耶穌預備了晚飯，拉撒路也與耶穌同席，瑪大在旁邊伺候。 3 瑪麗亞拿出一瓶[a]珍貴的純哪噠香膏來抹耶穌的腳，又用自己的頭髮去擦，屋裡頓時充滿了香氣。
4 有一個門徒，就是將要出賣耶穌的加略人猶大說： 5 「為什麼不把香膏賣三百個銀幣[b]去賙濟窮人呢？」 6 他這樣說不是因為他真的關心窮人，其實他是個賊，常常藉管錢的機會中飽私囊。
7 耶穌說：「由她吧！她這是為我安葬作預備。 8 因為你們身邊總會有窮人，可是你們身邊不會總有我。」
9 有許多猶太人知道耶穌在那裡，就來看祂，不單是為了看耶穌，也想看看從死裡復活的拉撒路。 10 於是，祭司長計劃連拉撒路也殺掉， 11 因為有許多猶太人因為拉撒路的緣故離開他們，去信了耶穌。
光榮進聖城
12 第二天，很多上來過節的人聽見耶穌快到耶路撒冷了， 13 就拿著棕樹枝出去迎接祂，並且高聲歡呼：
「和散那[c]！
奉主名來的以色列王當受稱頌！」
14 那時，耶穌找到一頭驢駒，就騎上牠，正如聖經記載：
15 「錫安的居民啊，不要害怕！
你的君王騎著驢駒來了。」
16 起初門徒不明白這些事，後來耶穌得了榮耀，他們才想起聖經上這些有關耶穌的記載果然在祂身上應驗了。 17 那些親眼看見耶穌叫拉撒路復活、走出墳墓的人不斷傳揚這件事。 18 許多聽過耶穌行這神蹟的人都去迎接祂。 19 法利賽人彼此議論說：「我們真是枉費心思！你看，整個世界都跟著祂跑了。」
耶穌預言自己的死
20 有幾個希臘人也上耶路撒冷過節。 21 他們找到了加利利的伯賽大人腓力，請求說：「先生，我們想見見耶穌。」 22 腓力把這件事告訴安得烈，二人去轉告耶穌。
23 耶穌說：「人子得榮耀的時候到了。 24 我實實在在地告訴你們，一粒麥子如果不落在地裡死了，仍是一粒，如果死了，就會結出許多麥粒來。 25 愛惜自己生命的，必會失掉生命；憎惡自己今世生命的，才能保住生命，直到永生。 26 誰要事奉我，就要跟從我。我在哪裡，事奉我的人也要在哪裡。我父必尊重事奉我的人。
27 「我現在心裡憂傷，說什麼才好呢？求父救我離開這個時刻嗎？然而，我原是為這個時刻來的。 28 父啊！願你使自己的名得榮耀！」
當時天上有聲音說：「我已使自己的名得了榮耀，並且還要得榮耀。」
29 站在那裡的人群中有人聽見就說：「打雷了！」也有人說：「是天使在跟祂說話。」
30 耶穌說：「這聲音不是為我發出的，是為你們發出的。 31 現在是這世界受審判的時候，世界的王[d]要被趕出去了。 32 至於我，當我從地上被舉起來時，必吸引萬人歸向我。」 33 耶穌這句話指的是祂會怎樣死。
34 眾人問：「我們從律法書上知道，基督是永遠長存的，你怎麼說『人子要被舉起來』呢？這人子是誰呢？」
35 耶穌對他們說：「光在你們中間照耀的時候不多了，你們要趁著有光的時候走路，免得黑暗來臨後，走在黑暗裡的人不知道要往哪裡去。 36 所以你們當趁著有光的時候信從光，好成為光明的兒女。」
耶穌說完後，便離開他們，隱藏起來。
猶太人不信祂
37 耶穌雖然在他們面前行了許多神蹟，他們還是不信祂。 38 這是要應驗以賽亞先知的話：
「主啊，誰相信我們所傳的呢？主的能力[e]向誰顯現呢？」
39 接著，以賽亞又說出他們不能信的緣故：
40 「主使他們眼瞎、心硬，
免得他們眼睛看見，
心裡明白，回心轉意，
就得到我的醫治。」
41 以賽亞看見了祂的榮耀，所以才這樣說。 42 雖然這樣，仍有很多猶太的官員信了耶穌，只是在法利賽人面前不敢公開承認，因為害怕會被趕出會堂。 43 因為他們愛從世人而來的榮耀，勝過愛從上帝而來的榮耀。
耶穌的道要審判人
44 耶穌高聲說：「信我的，其實不只是信我，而是信差我來的那位。 45 人看見了我，就是看見了差我來的那位。 46 我來是要作世界的光，好叫信我的人脫離黑暗。 47 聽了我的話卻不遵守的人，我不審判他，因為我來不是要審判世人，而是要拯救世人。 48 棄絕我、不接受我話的人將受到審判，我講過的道在末日要審判他， 49 因為我不是憑自己講的，我說什麼、講什麼都是差我來的父吩咐的。 50 我知道祂的命令能帶來永生。所以祂怎麼告訴我，我就怎麼說。」

Mary anoints Jesus’ feet
12 Six days before Passover, Jesus came to Bethany, home of Lazarus, whom Jesus had raised from the dead. 2 Lazarus and his sisters hosted a dinner for him. Martha served and Lazarus was among those who joined him at the table. 3 Then Mary took an extraordinary amount, almost three-quarters of a pound,[a] of very expensive perfume made of pure nard. She anointed Jesus’ feet with it, then wiped his feet dry with her hair. The house was filled with the aroma of the perfume. 4 Judas Iscariot, one of his disciples (the one who was about to betray him), complained, 5 “This perfume was worth a year’s wages![b] Why wasn’t it sold and the money given to the poor?” (6 He said this not because he cared about the poor but because he was a thief. He carried the money bag and would take what was in it.)
7 Then Jesus said, “Leave her alone. This perfume was to be used in preparation for my burial, and this is how she has used it. 8 You will always have the poor among you, but you won’t always have me.”
9 Many Jews learned that he was there. They came not only because of Jesus but also to see Lazarus, whom he had raised from the dead. 10 The chief priests decided that they would kill Lazarus too. 11 It was because of Lazarus that many of the Jews had deserted them and come to believe in Jesus.
Jesus enters Jerusalem
12 The next day the great crowd that had come for the festival heard that Jesus was coming to Jerusalem. 13 They took palm branches and went out to meet him. They shouted,
“Hosanna!
Blessings on the one who comes in the name of the Lord![c]
Blessings on the king of Israel!”
14 Jesus found a young donkey and sat on it, just as it is written,
15 Don’t be afraid, Daughter Zion.
Look! Your king is coming,
sitting on a donkey’s colt.[d]
16 His disciples didn’t understand these things at first. After he was glorified, they remembered that these things had been written about him and that they had done these things to him.
17 The crowd who had been with him when he called Lazarus out of the tomb and raised him from the dead were testifying about him. 18 That’s why the crowd came to meet him, because they had heard about this miraculous sign that he had done. 19 Therefore, the Pharisees said to each other, “See! You’ve accomplished nothing! Look! The whole world is following him!”
Jesus teaches about his death
20 Some Greeks were among those who had come up to worship at the festival. 21 They came to Philip, who was from Bethsaida in Galilee, and made a request: “Sir, we want to see Jesus.” 22 Philip told Andrew, and Andrew and Philip told Jesus.
23 Jesus replied, “The time has come for the Human One[e] to be glorified. 24 I assure you that unless a grain of wheat falls into the earth and dies, it can only be a single seed. But if it dies, it bears much fruit. 25 Those who love their lives will lose them, and those who hate their lives in this world will keep them forever. 26 Whoever serves me must follow me. Wherever I am, there my servant will also be. My Father will honor whoever serves me.
27 “Now I am deeply troubled.[f] What should I say? ‘Father, save me from this time’? No, for this is the reason I have come to this time. 28 Father, glorify your name!”
Then a voice came from heaven, “I have glorified it, and I will glorify it again.”
29 The crowd standing there heard and said, “It’s thunder.” Others said, “An angel spoke to him.”
30 Jesus replied, “This voice wasn’t for my benefit but for yours. 31 Now is the time for judgment of this world. Now this world’s ruler will be thrown out. 32 When I am lifted up[g] from the earth, I will draw everyone to me.” (33 He said this to show how he was going to die.)
34 The crowd responded, “We have heard from the Law that the Christ remains forever. How can you say that the Human One[h] must be lifted up? Who is this Human One?”[i]
35 Jesus replied, “The light is with you for only a little while. Walk while you have the light so that darkness doesn’t overtake you. Those who walk in the darkness don’t know where they are going. 36 As long as you have the light, believe in the light so that you might become people whose lives are determined by the light.” After Jesus said these things, he went away and hid from them.
Fulfillment of prophecy
37 Jesus had done many miraculous signs before the people, but they didn’t believe in him. 38 This was to fulfill the word of the prophet Isaiah:
Lord, who has believed through our message?
To whom is the arm of the Lord fully revealed?[j]
39 Isaiah explains why they couldn’t believe:
40 He made their eyes blind
and closed their minds
so that they might not see with their eyes,
understand with their minds,
and turn their lives around—
and I would heal them.[k]
41 Isaiah said these things because he saw Jesus’ glory; he spoke about Jesus. 42 Even so, many leaders believed in him, but they wouldn’t acknowledge their faith because they feared that the Pharisees would expel them from the synagogue. 43 They believed, but they loved human praise more than God’s glory.
Summary of Jesus’ teaching
44 Jesus shouted, “Whoever believes in me doesn’t believe in me but in the one who sent me. 45 Whoever sees me sees the one who sent me. 46 I have come as a light into the world so that everyone who believes in me won’t live in darkness. 47 If people hear my words and don’t keep them, I don’t judge them. I didn’t come to judge the world but to save it. 48 Whoever rejects me and doesn’t receive my words will be judged at the last day by the word I have spoken. 49 I don’t speak on my own, but the Father who sent me commanded me regarding what I should speak and say. 50 I know that his commandment is eternal life. Therefore, whatever I say is just as the Father has said to me.”
