约翰福音 12
Chinese Contemporary Bible (Simplified)
香膏抹脚
12 逾越节前六天，耶稣来到伯大尼，就是祂叫拉撒路从死里复活的村子。 2 村里有人为耶稣预备了晚饭，拉撒路也与耶稣同席，玛大在旁边伺候。 3 玛丽亚拿出一瓶[a]珍贵的纯哪哒香膏来抹耶稣的脚，又用自己的头发去擦，屋里顿时充满了香气。
4 有一个门徒，就是将要出卖耶稣的加略人犹大说： 5 “为什么不把香膏卖三百个银币[b]去周济穷人呢？” 6 他这样说不是因为他真的关心穷人，其实他是个贼，常常借管钱的机会中饱私囊。
7 耶稣说：“由她吧！她这是为我安葬作预备。 8 因为你们身边总会有穷人，可是你们身边不会总有我。”
9 有许多犹太人知道耶稣在那里，就来看祂，不单是为了看耶稣，也想看看从死里复活的拉撒路。 10 于是，祭司长计划连拉撒路也杀掉， 11 因为有许多犹太人因为拉撒路的缘故离开他们，去信了耶稣。
光荣进圣城
12 第二天，很多上来过节的人听见耶稣快到耶路撒冷了， 13 就拿着棕树枝出去迎接祂，并且高声欢呼：
“和散那[c]！
奉主名来的以色列王当受称颂！”
14 那时，耶稣找到一头驴驹，就骑上它，正如圣经记载：
15 “锡安的居民啊，不要害怕！
你的君王骑着驴驹来了。”
16 起初门徒不明白这些事，后来耶稣得了荣耀，他们才想起圣经上这些有关耶稣的记载果然在祂身上应验了。 17 那些亲眼看见耶稣叫拉撒路复活、走出坟墓的人不断传扬这件事。 18 许多听过耶稣行这神迹的人都去迎接祂。 19 法利赛人彼此议论说：“我们真是枉费心思！你看，整个世界都跟着祂跑了。”
耶稣预言自己的死
20 有几个希腊人也上耶路撒冷过节。 21 他们找到了加利利的伯赛大人腓力，请求说：“先生，我们想见见耶稣。” 22 腓力把这件事告诉安得烈，二人去转告耶稣。
23 耶稣说：“人子得荣耀的时候到了。 24 我实实在在地告诉你们，一粒麦子如果不落在地里死了，仍是一粒，如果死了，就会结出许多麦粒来。 25 爱惜自己生命的，必会失掉生命；憎恶自己今世生命的，才能保住生命，直到永生。 26 谁要事奉我，就要跟从我。我在哪里，事奉我的人也要在哪里。我父必尊重事奉我的人。
27 “我现在心里忧伤，说什么才好呢？求父救我离开这个时刻吗？然而，我原是为这个时刻来的。 28 父啊！愿你使自己的名得荣耀！”
当时天上有声音说：“我已使自己的名得了荣耀，并且还要得荣耀。”
29 站在那里的人群中有人听见就说：“打雷了！”也有人说：“是天使在跟祂说话。”
30 耶稣说：“这声音不是为我发出的，是为你们发出的。 31 现在是这世界受审判的时候，世界的王[d]要被赶出去了。 32 至于我，当我从地上被举起来时，必吸引万人归向我。” 33 耶稣这句话指的是祂会怎样死。
34 众人问：“我们从律法书上知道，基督是永远长存的，你怎么说‘人子要被举起来’呢？这人子是谁呢？”
35 耶稣对他们说：“光在你们中间照耀的时候不多了，你们要趁着有光的时候走路，免得黑暗来临后，走在黑暗里的人不知道要往哪里去。 36 所以你们当趁着有光的时候信从光，好成为光明的儿女。”
耶稣说完后，便离开他们，隐藏起来。
犹太人不信祂
37 耶稣虽然在他们面前行了许多神迹，他们还是不信祂。 38 这是要应验以赛亚先知的话：
“主啊，谁相信我们所传的呢？主的能力[e]向谁显现呢？”
39 接着，以赛亚又说出他们不能信的缘故：
40 “主使他们眼瞎、心硬，
免得他们眼睛看见，
心里明白，回心转意，
就得到我的医治。”
41 以赛亚看见了祂的荣耀，所以才这样说。 42 虽然这样，仍有很多犹太的官员信了耶稣，只是在法利赛人面前不敢公开承认，因为害怕会被赶出会堂。 43 因为他们爱从世人而来的荣耀，胜过爱从上帝而来的荣耀。
耶稣的道要审判人
44 耶稣高声说：“信我的，其实不只是信我，而是信差我来的那位。 45 人看见了我，就是看见了差我来的那位。 46 我来是要作世界的光，好叫信我的人脱离黑暗。 47 听了我的话却不遵守的人，我不审判他，因为我来不是要审判世人，而是要拯救世人。 48 弃绝我、不接受我话的人将受到审判，我讲过的道在末日要审判他， 49 因为我不是凭自己讲的，我说什么、讲什么都是差我来的父吩咐的。 50 我知道祂的命令能带来永生。所以祂怎么告诉我，我就怎么说。”

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。」
John 12
Wycliffe Bible
12 Therefore Jesus before six days of pask came to Bethany, where Lazarus had been dead [where Lazarus was dead], whom Jesus raised.
2 And they made to him a supper there, and Martha ministered to him; and Lazarus was one of the men that sat at the meat with him.
3 Therefore Mary took a pound of ointment of true nard precious [Therefore Mary took a pound of ointment spikenard, or true nard, precious], and anointed the feet of Jesus, and wiped his feet with her hairs; and the house was full-filled with the savour of the ointment.
4 Therefore Judas Iscariot, one of his disciples, that was to betray him, said,
5 Why is not this ointment sold for three hundred pence, and given to poor men [and given to needy men]?
6 But he said this thing, not for it pertained to him of needy men, but for he was a thief, and had the purses, and bare those things that were sent.
7 Therefore Jesus said, Suffer ye her, that into the day of my burying she keep that;
8 for ye shall evermore have poor men with you, but ye shall not evermore have me.[a]
9 Therefore much people of the Jews knew, that Jesus was there; and they came, not only for Jesus, but to see Lazarus, whom he had raised from death [whom he raised from dead].
10 But the princes of priests thought [for] to slay Lazarus,
11 for many of the Jews went away for him [for many of the Jews for him went away], and believed in Jesus.
12 But on the morrow much people, that came together to the feast day, when they had heard, that Jesus came to Jerusalem [when they had heard, for Jesus cometh to Jerusalem],
13 took branches of palms, and came forth to meet him, and cried, Hosanna, blessed is the king of Israel, that cometh in the name of the Lord.
14 And Jesus found a young ass, and sat on [upon] him, as it is written,
15 The daughter of Sion, do not thou dread; lo! thy king cometh, sitting on an ass's foal. [Daughter of Sion, do not thou dread; lo! thy king cometh, sitting on the colt of a she ass.]
16 His disciples knew not first these things, but when Jesus was glorified, then they had mind [then they recorded, or had mind], that these things were written of him, and these things they did to him.
17 Therefore the people bare witnessing, that was with him, when he called Lazarus from the grave, and raised him from death [from dead].
18 And therefore the people came, and met with him, for they heard that he had done this sign.
19 Therefore the Pharisees said to themselves, Ye see, that we profit nothing; lo! all the world hath gone after him [lo! all the world went after him].
20 And there were some heathen men, of them that had come up to worship in the feast day.
21 And these came to Philip, that was of Bethsaida of Galilee, and prayed him, and said, Sire, we will see Jesus [and prayed him, saying, Sire, we would see Jesus].
22 Philip cometh, and saith to Andrew; and again Andrew and Philip said to Jesus.
23 And Jesus answered to them, and said [saying], The hour cometh, that man's Son be clarified.
24 Truly, truly, I say to you, but a corn of wheat fall into the earth, and be dead, it dwelleth alone; but if it be dead, it bringeth [forth] much fruit.
25 He that loveth his life, shall lose it; and he that hateth his life in this world, keepeth it into everlasting life.
26 If any man serve me, follow he me; and where I am, there my minister shall be [there and my minister, or servant, shall be]. If any man serve me, my Father shall honour him [my Father shall worship him].
27 Now my soul is troubled, and what shall I say? Father, save me from this hour; but therefore [but for that thing] I came into this hour;
28 Father, clarify thy name. And a voice came from heaven, and said [saying], And I have clarified, and again I shall clarify.
29 Therefore the people that stood, and heard, said, that thunder was made; other men said, an angel spake to him.
30 Jesus answered, and said, This voice came not for me, but for you.
31 Now is the doom of the world, now the prince of this world shall be cast out.
32 And if I shall be enhanced from the earth, I shall draw all things to myself.
33 And he said this thing [Soothly this thing he said], signifying by what death he was to die.
34 And the people answered to him, We have heard of the law, that Christ dwelleth without end [for Christ dwelleth into without end]; and how sayest thou, It behooveth man's Son to be areared? Who is this man's Son?
35 And then Jesus saith to them, Yet a little light is in you; walk ye, the while ye have light, that darkness catch you not [that darknesses catch not you]; he that wandereth in darknesses, knoweth not whither he goeth.
36 While ye have light, believe ye in the light, that ye be the children of light. Jesus spake these things, and went, and hid him(self) from them.
37 And when he had done so many miracles before them [Soothly when he had done so many signs, or miracles, before them], they believed not in him;
38 that the word of Esaias, the prophet, should be fulfilled, which he said, Lord, who hath believed to our hearing, and to whom is the arm of the Lord showed?
39 Therefore they might not believe, for again Esaias said,
40 He hath blinded their eyes, and hath made hard the heart of them [and he hath endured, or made hard, the heart of them], that they see not with eyes, and understand [not] with heart; and that they be converted, and I heal them.
41 Esaias said these things, when he saw the glory of him, and spake of him.
42 Nevertheless of the princes many believed in him, but for the Pharisees they acknowledged not, that they should not be put out of the synagogue;
43 for they loved the glory of men, more than the glory of God.
44 And Jesus cried, and said, He that believeth in me, believeth not in me, but in him that sent me.
45 He that seeth me, seeth him that sent me.
46 I light came into the world, that each that believeth in me, dwell not in darknesses.
47 And if any man heareth my words, and keepeth them not, I deem him not [And if any man shall hear my words, and shall not keep, I deem not him]; for I came not, that I deem the world, but that I make the world safe.
48 He that despiseth me, and taketh not my words, hath him that shall judge him; that word that I have spoken, [that] shall deem him in the last day [the word that I have spoken, that shall deem him in the last day].
49 For I have not spoken of myself, but that Father that sent me, [he] gave to me a commandment, what I shall say, and what I shall speak.
50 And I know, that his commandment is everlasting life; therefore those things that I speak, as the Father said to me, so I speak.
