约翰福音 3
Chinese New Version (Simplified)
人必须重生
3 有一个法利赛人,名叫尼哥德慕,是犹太人的官长。 2 他夜间来到耶稣那里,对他说:“拉比,我们知道你是从 神那里来的教师,因为如果没有 神同在,你所行的这些神迹,就没有人能行。” 3 耶稣回答:“我实实在在告诉你,人若不重生,就不能见 神的国。” 4 尼哥德慕说:“人老了,怎能重生呢?难道他能再进母腹生出来吗?” 5 耶稣回答:“我实实在在告诉你,人若不是从水和圣灵生的,就不能进 神的国。 6 从肉身生的就是肉身,从灵生的就是灵。 7 你不要因为我对你说‘你们必须重生’而感到希奇。 8 风随意而吹,你听见它的响声,却不知道它从哪里来,往哪里去;凡从圣灵生的,也是这样。” 9 尼哥德慕说:“怎能有这事呢?” 10 耶稣说:“你是以色列人的教师,还不明白这事吗? 11 我实实在在告诉你,我们知道的,才讲论;见过的,就作证,然而你们却不接受我们的见证。 12 我对你们讲地上的事,你们尚且不信,如果讲天上的事,怎能相信呢? 13 除了那从天上降下来的人子(有些抄本作“除了那从天上降下来仍旧在天上的人子”),没有人升过天。 14 摩西在旷野怎样把铜蛇举起,人子也必照样被举起来, 15 使所有信他的人都得永生。
16 “ 神爱世人,甚至把他的独生子赐给他们,叫一切信他的,不至灭亡,反得永生。 17 因为 神差他的儿子到世上来,不是要定世人的罪,而是要使世人借着他得救。 18 信他的,不被定罪;不信的,罪已经定了,因为他不信 神独生子的名。 19 光来到世上,世人因为自己的行为邪恶,不爱光倒爱黑暗,定他们罪的原因,就在这里。 20 凡作恶的都恨光,不来接近光,免得他的恶行暴露出来。 21 凡行真理的,就来接近光,好显明他所作的都是靠着 神而作的。”
他必兴旺,我必衰微
22 这事以后,耶稣和门徒来到犹太地,他和他们住在那里,并且施洗。 23 约翰也在靠近撒冷的艾嫩施洗,因为那里水多;众人都去受洗。 24 那时约翰还没有入狱。 25 约翰的门徒和一个犹太人为洁净礼发生辩论。 26 他们来到约翰那里,对他说:“拉比,你看,从前和你在约旦河东,你为他作见证的那一位,他也在施洗,众人都到他那里去了。” 27 约翰回答:“除了从天上赐下来给他的,人就不能得到甚么。 28 你们自己可以为我作证:我曾说,我不是基督,不过是奉差遣作他的先锋的。 29 娶新娘的是新郎。新郎的好友站在那里听着,听见新郎的声音就非常喜乐。因此,我这喜乐满溢了! 30 他必兴旺,我必衰微。
从天上来的
31 “那从天上来的,是在万有之上;从地上来的,是属于地,所讲的也是属于地。那从天上来的,是超越万有之上。 32 他把所见所闻的见证出来,可是没有人接受他的见证。 33 那接受他的见证的,就确认 神是真的。 34 神所差来的那一位讲 神的话,因为 神把圣灵无限地赐给他。 35 父爱子,已经把万有交在他手里。 36 信子的,有永生;不信从子的,必不得见永生, 神的震怒却常在他身上。”
約翰福音 3
Chinese Standard Bible (Traditional)
耶穌與尼克迪莫
3 有一個人,屬於法利賽人,名叫尼克迪莫,是猶太人的一位首領。 2 他夜裡來到耶穌那裡,說:「拉比,我們知道你是從神那裡來的老師,因為你所行的這些神蹟,如果沒有神的同在,沒有人能做得到。」
3 耶穌回答說:「我確確實實地告訴你:一個人如果不重生[a],就不能見神的國。」
4 尼克迪莫問:「人老了,怎麼能出生呢?他難道能再進母腹又出生嗎?」
5 耶穌回答:「我確確實實地告訴你:一個人如果不是由水和聖靈所生的,就不能進入神的國。 6 由肉體所生的,就是肉體;由聖靈所生的,就是靈。 7 我說『你們必須重生[b]』,你不要感到驚奇。 8 風[c]隨意而吹,你聽見風聲,卻不知道它從哪裡來,往哪裡去。所有由聖靈所生的,也是這樣。」
9 尼克迪莫又問:「怎麼能有這些事呢?」
10 耶穌回答說:「你是以色列的老師,還不明白這些事嗎? 11 我確確實實地告訴你:我們講論我們所知道的,我們見證我們所看到的,而你們卻不接受我們的見證。 12 我告訴你們地上的事,你們尚且不信,如果我告訴你們天上的事,你們怎麼會信呢? 13 除了從天上降下來的人子,[d]沒有人升過天。 14 摩西在曠野怎樣把銅蛇舉起,人子也必須照樣被舉起來, 15 好使所有相信他的人[e],都得到永恆的生命。
16 「神愛世人,甚至賜下他的獨生子,好讓所有信他的人不至於滅亡,反得永恆的生命, 17 因為神差派他的[f]兒子來到世上,不是為了定世人的罪,而是為了世人藉著他得救。 18 信他的人,不被定罪;不信的人,已經被定罪了,因為他不信神獨生子的名。
19 「所定的罪是這樣的:光來到了世界,人們卻因自己的行為邪惡,不喜愛光,反喜愛黑暗。 20 事實上,所有作惡的人,都憎恨光,不來到光那裡,免得自己的行為被揭露出來; 21 但行真理的人,卻來到光那裡,為了顯明自己所做的是在神裡面被做成的。」
耶穌與施洗約翰
22 這些事以後,耶穌和他的門徒們來到猶太地區,住在那裡,並且給人施洗。 23 約翰也在撒令附近的艾嫩施洗,因為那裡水多。眾人紛紛而來受洗。 24 原來,約翰那時候還沒有被投進監獄。
25 約翰的門徒們與一個[g]猶太人,為了潔淨禮起了辯論。 26 他們就到約翰那裡,對他說:「拉比,你看,以前與你在約旦河對岸的,就是你所見證的那一位,他也在施洗,而且大家都到他那裡去了。」
27 約翰回答說:「如果不是從天上賜下的,人就不能得到什麼。 28 你們自己可以為我見證:我曾經說過『我不是基督,而是奉差派在他前面的。』 29 迎娶新娘的是新郎。新郎的朋友站在那裡,聽到新郎的聲音,就歡喜快樂。這樣,我這喜樂得以滿足了。 30 他必興旺,我必衰微。」
來自天上的那一位
31 那從上面來的,是在萬有之上;那從地而出的,屬於地,而且所說的也屬於地。那從天上來的,是在萬有之上, 32 他見證他所看到的、他所聽到的,可是沒有人接受他的見證。 33 那接受他見證的人,就印證了神是真實的。 34 神所差派的那一位,就說神的話語,因為神不靠著量度賜下聖靈。 35 父愛子,把一切都交在他手裡了。 36 信從子的人,就有永恆的生命;但是不肯信從子的人,見不到生命,而且神的震怒也停留在他身上。
John 3
King James Version
3 There was a man of the Pharisees, named Nicodemus, a ruler of the Jews:
2 The same came to Jesus by night, and said unto him, Rabbi, we know that thou art a teacher come from God: for no man can do these miracles that thou doest, except God be with him.
3 Jesus answered and said unto him, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God.
4 Nicodemus saith unto him, How can a man be born when he is old? can he enter the second time into his mother's womb, and be born?
5 Jesus answered, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born of water and of the Spirit, he cannot enter into the kingdom of God.
6 That which is born of the flesh is flesh; and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit.
7 Marvel not that I said unto thee, Ye must be born again.
8 The wind bloweth where it listeth, and thou hearest the sound thereof, but canst not tell whence it cometh, and whither it goeth: so is every one that is born of the Spirit.
9 Nicodemus answered and said unto him, How can these things be?
10 Jesus answered and said unto him, Art thou a master of Israel, and knowest not these things?
11 Verily, verily, I say unto thee, We speak that we do know, and testify that we have seen; and ye receive not our witness.
12 If I have told you earthly things, and ye believe not, how shall ye believe, if I tell you of heavenly things?
13 And no man hath ascended up to heaven, but he that came down from heaven, even the Son of man which is in heaven.
14 And as Moses lifted up the serpent in the wilderness, even so must the Son of man be lifted up:
15 That whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have eternal life.
16 For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.
17 For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved.
18 He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God.
19 And this is the condemnation, that light is come into the world, and men loved darkness rather than light, because their deeds were evil.
20 For every one that doeth evil hateth the light, neither cometh to the light, lest his deeds should be reproved.
21 But he that doeth truth cometh to the light, that his deeds may be made manifest, that they are wrought in God.
22 After these things came Jesus and his disciples into the land of Judaea; and there he tarried with them, and baptized.
23 And John also was baptizing in Aenon near to Salim, because there was much water there: and they came, and were baptized.
24 For John was not yet cast into prison.
25 Then there arose a question between some of John's disciples and the Jews about purifying.
26 And they came unto John, and said unto him, Rabbi, he that was with thee beyond Jordan, to whom thou barest witness, behold, the same baptizeth, and all men come to him.
27 John answered and said, A man can receive nothing, except it be given him from heaven.
28 Ye yourselves bear me witness, that I said, I am not the Christ, but that I am sent before him.
29 He that hath the bride is the bridegroom: but the friend of the bridegroom, which standeth and heareth him, rejoiceth greatly because of the bridegroom's voice: this my joy therefore is fulfilled.
30 He must increase, but I must decrease.
31 He that cometh from above is above all: he that is of the earth is earthly, and speaketh of the earth: he that cometh from heaven is above all.
32 And what he hath seen and heard, that he testifieth; and no man receiveth his testimony.
33 He that hath received his testimony hath set to his seal that God is true.
34 For he whom God hath sent speaketh the words of God: for God giveth not the Spirit by measure unto him.
35 The Father loveth the Son, and hath given all things into his hand.
36 He that believeth on the Son hath everlasting life: and he that believeth not the Son shall not see life; but the wrath of God abideth on him.
