约翰福音 4
Chinese Contemporary Bible (Simplified)
井边谈道
4 1-3 耶稣得知法利赛人听见祂收门徒、为人施洗比约翰还多,便离开犹太回加利利。其实不是耶稣亲自施洗,而是祂的门徒施洗。 4 祂回加利利的路上必须经过撒玛利亚。 5 于是,祂来到撒玛利亚的一座城,名叫叙加,靠近雅各留给他儿子约瑟的那块地。 6 雅各井就在那个地方。耶稣走路疲乏,坐在井旁休息。那时是中午时分, 7-8 门徒都进城买食物去了。有一个撒玛利亚的妇人来打水,耶稣说:“请你给我一点水吧。”
9 撒玛利亚妇人说:“你是个犹太人,怎么向我这撒玛利亚妇人要水喝?”原来犹太人和撒玛利亚人互不往来。
10 耶稣回答说:“要是你知道上帝的恩赐,又知道向你要水喝的是谁,你早就求祂了,祂也早就把活水给你了。”
11 妇人说:“先生,你没有打水的器具,井又深,你从哪里得到活水呢? 12 我们的祖先雅各把这口井留给我们,他自己和他的儿女、牲畜都喝这井里的水,难道你比他更伟大吗?”
13 耶稣说:“人喝了这井里的水,还会再渴, 14 但是喝了我所赐的活水,永远不会再渴。我所赐的水要在他里面成为生命的泉源,涌流不息,直到永生。”
15 妇人说:“先生,请你把这种水赐给我,我就不会再渴了,也用不着来打水了。”
16 耶稣说:“去叫你的丈夫来。”
17 妇人说:“我没有丈夫。”耶稣说:“你说的对,你没有丈夫, 18 因为你已经有过五个丈夫了,现在和你同居的也不是你的丈夫。你说的是实话。”
19 妇人说:“先生,你一定是先知。 20 我们的祖先一向都是在这山上敬拜上帝,你们却说耶路撒冷才是敬拜的地方。”
21 耶稣回答说:“妇人,你当信我。时候快到了,你们将不在这山上,也不在耶路撒冷敬拜父。 22 你们不知道你们敬拜的是谁,我们知道我们敬拜的是谁,因为救恩是从犹太人出来的。 23 时候快到了,其实就是现在,真正敬拜父的,要用心灵按真理敬拜祂,因为父寻找的正是这样敬拜祂的人。 24 上帝是灵,所以必须用心灵按真理敬拜祂。”
25 妇人说:“据我所知,那被称为基督的弥赛亚要来。祂来了,会把一切都告诉我们。”
26 耶稣说:“我这跟你说话的人就是祂。”
27 这时,门徒回来了,看见耶稣和一个妇人谈话,感到惊奇,可是没有人问:“你想要什么?”或问:“你为什么和她说话?”
28 那妇人撇下水罐,回到城里,对人们说: 29 “你们快来看啊!有一个人把我过去的事全部说了出来。莫非祂就是基督?” 30 众人听了就到城外去看耶稣。
撒种与收割
31 其间,门徒对耶稣说:“老师,请吃点东西吧。”
32 耶稣说:“我有食物吃,是你们不知道的。”
33 门徒彼此议论说:“难道有人给祂吃的了?”
34 耶稣说:“我的食物就是遵行差我来者的旨意,完成祂的工作。 35 你们不是说还有四个月才到收割的时候吗?举目向田观看吧,庄稼已经熟了,可以收割了。 36 收割的人不但可以得到报酬,而且可以为永生收获果实,叫撒种的和收割的一同快乐。 37 俗语说得好,‘那人撒种,这人收割。’ 38 我派你们去收割那些你们没有劳作的庄稼,别人劳苦,你们享受他们劳苦的成果。”
39 那城里有许多撒玛利亚人信了耶稣,因为那妇人做见证说:“祂将我以前做的一切事情都说了出来。” 40 撒玛利亚人来见耶稣,恳求祂留下来,祂就在那里住了两天。 41 因为耶稣传的道,信的人更多了。 42 他们对那妇人说:“现在我们信,不再是因为你的话,而是我们亲耳听见了,知道祂真的是救世主。”
耶稣治好大臣的儿子
43 两天后,耶稣动身前往加利利。 44 祂以前说过:“先知在他本乡不受人尊敬。” 45 然而,祂回到加利利却受到当地的人欢迎,因为他们上耶路撒冷过节时,看见了祂所做的一切。
46 祂又到了加利利的迦拿,就是祂从前把水变成酒的地方。有一个大臣的儿子在迦百农患了病。 47 大臣听说耶稣从犹太来到加利利,立刻赶来见祂,求祂去医治他病危的儿子。
48 耶稣对他说:“你们不看见神迹奇事,总不相信。”
49 大臣说:“先生,趁我的孩子还没死,求你赶快去!”
50 耶稣说:“回去吧,你的儿子好了。”他相信耶稣的话,就回去了。
51 他途中遇见奴仆来报信说他儿子好了, 52 就问什么时候好的。仆人说:“昨天下午一点钟,烧就退了。”
53 他想起正是那时候耶稣对他说:“你的儿子好了!”他和全家都信了。
54 这是耶稣从犹太回到加利利后所行的第二个神迹。
約翰福音 4
Chinese Union Version Modern Punctuation (Traditional)
耶穌與撒馬利亞婦人談道
4 主知道法利賽人聽見他收門徒施洗比約翰還多 2 (其實不是耶穌親自施洗,乃是他的門徒施洗), 3 他就離了猶太,又往加利利去。 4 必須經過撒馬利亞, 5 於是到了撒馬利亞的一座城,名叫敘加,靠近雅各給他兒子約瑟的那塊地。 6 在那裡有雅各井。耶穌因走路困乏,就坐在井旁。那時約有午正。 7 有一個撒馬利亞的婦人來打水,耶穌對她說:「請你給我水喝。」 8 那時門徒進城買食物去了。 9 撒馬利亞的婦人對他說:「你既是猶太人,怎麼向我一個撒馬利亞婦人要水喝呢?」(原來猶太人和撒馬利亞人沒有來往。) 10 耶穌回答說:「你若知道神的恩賜和對你說『給我水喝』的是誰,你必早求他,他也必早給了你活水。」 11 婦人說:「先生,沒有打水的器具,井又深,你從哪裡得活水呢? 12 我們的祖宗雅各將這井留給我們,他自己和兒子並牲畜也都喝這井裡的水,難道你比他還大嗎?」
喝主所賜之水永遠不渴
13 耶穌回答說:「凡喝這水的,還要再渴, 14 人若喝我所賜的水,就永遠不渴。我所賜的水要在他裡頭成為泉源,直湧到永生。」 15 婦人說:「先生,請把這水賜給我,叫我不渴,也不用來這麼遠打水。」 16 耶穌說:「你去叫你丈夫也到這裡來。」 17 婦人說:「我沒有丈夫。」耶穌說:「你說沒有丈夫是不錯的。 18 你已經有五個丈夫,你現在有的並不是你的丈夫。你這話是真的。」 19 婦人說:「先生,我看出你是先知。 20 我們的祖宗在這山上禮拜,你們倒說,應當禮拜的地方是在耶路撒冷。」
須用心靈誠實拜父
21 耶穌說:「婦人,你當信我。時候將到,你們拜父也不在這山上,也不在耶路撒冷。 22 你們所拜的你們不知道,我們所拜的我們知道,因為救恩是從猶太人出來的。 23 時候將到,如今就是了,那真正拜父的,要用心靈和誠實拜他,因為父要這樣的人拜他。 24 神是個[a]靈,所以拜他的必須用心靈和誠實拜他。」 25 婦人說:「我知道彌賽亞,就是那稱為基督的要來,他來了,必將一切的事都告訴我們。」 26 耶穌說:「這和你說話的就是他。」
27 當下門徒回來,就稀奇耶穌和一個婦人說話,只是沒有人說「你是要什麼?」,或說「你為什麼和她說話?」。 28 那婦人就留下水罐子,往城裡去,對眾人說: 29 「你們來看!有一個人將我素來所行的一切事都給我說出來了,莫非這就是基督嗎?」 30 眾人就出城,往耶穌那裡去。
耶穌以遵行父意為食物
31 這其間,門徒對耶穌說:「拉比,請吃。」 32 耶穌說:「我有食物吃,是你們不知道的。」 33 門徒就彼此對問說:「莫非有人拿什麼給他吃嗎?」 34 耶穌說:「我的食物就是遵行差我來者的旨意,做成他的工。 35 你們豈不說,到收割的時候還有四個月嗎?我告訴你們:舉目向田觀看!莊稼已經熟了[b],可以收割了。 36 收割的人得工價,積蓄五穀到永生,叫撒種的和收割的一同快樂。 37 俗語說:『那人撒種,這人收割。』這話可見是真的。 38 我差你們去收你們所沒有勞苦的,別人勞苦,你們享受他們所勞苦的。」
39 那城裡有好些撒馬利亞人信了耶穌,因為那婦人作見證說:「他將我素來所行的一切事都給我說出來了。」 40 於是撒馬利亞人來見耶穌,求他在他們那裡住下,他便在那裡住了兩天。 41 因耶穌的話,信的人就更多了, 42 便對婦人說:「現在我們信,不是因為你的話,是我們親自聽見了,知道這真是救世主。」
耶穌在本地無人尊敬
43 過了那兩天,耶穌離了那地方,往加利利去。 44 因為耶穌自己作過見證說,先知在本地是沒有人尊敬的。 45 到了加利利,加利利人既然看見他在耶路撒冷過節所行的一切事,就接待他,因為他們也是上去過節。
醫大臣之子
46 耶穌又到了加利利的迦拿,就是他從前變水為酒的地方。有一個大臣,他的兒子在迦百農患病。 47 他聽見耶穌從猶太到了加利利,就來見他,求他下去醫治他的兒子,因為他兒子快要死了。 48 耶穌就對他說:「若不看見神蹟奇事,你們總是不信!」 49 那大臣說:「先生,求你趁著我的孩子還沒有死就下去。」 50 耶穌對他說:「回去吧,你的兒子活了!」那人信耶穌所說的話就回去了。 51 正下去的時候,他的僕人迎見他,說他的兒子活了。 52 他就問什麼時候見好的,他們說:「昨日未時熱就退了。」 53 他便知道這正是耶穌對他說「你兒子活了」的時候,他自己和全家就都信了。 54 這是耶穌在加利利行的第二件神蹟,是他從猶太回去以後行的。
John 4
King James Version
4 When therefore the Lord knew how the Pharisees had heard that Jesus made and baptized more disciples than John,
2 (Though Jesus himself baptized not, but his disciples,)
3 He left Judaea, and departed again into Galilee.
4 And he must needs go through Samaria.
5 Then cometh he to a city of Samaria, which is called Sychar, near to the parcel of ground that Jacob gave to his son Joseph.
6 Now Jacob's well was there. Jesus therefore, being wearied with his journey, sat thus on the well: and it was about the sixth hour.
7 There cometh a woman of Samaria to draw water: Jesus saith unto her, Give me to drink.
8 (For his disciples were gone away unto the city to buy meat.)
9 Then saith the woman of Samaria unto him, How is it that thou, being a Jew, askest drink of me, which am a woman of Samaria? for the Jews have no dealings with the Samaritans.
10 Jesus answered and said unto her, If thou knewest the gift of God, and who it is that saith to thee, Give me to drink; thou wouldest have asked of him, and he would have given thee living water.
11 The woman saith unto him, Sir, thou hast nothing to draw with, and the well is deep: from whence then hast thou that living water?
12 Art thou greater than our father Jacob, which gave us the well, and drank thereof himself, and his children, and his cattle?
13 Jesus answered and said unto her, Whosoever drinketh of this water shall thirst again:
14 But whosoever drinketh of the water that I shall give him shall never thirst; but the water that I shall give him shall be in him a well of water springing up into everlasting life.
15 The woman saith unto him, Sir, give me this water, that I thirst not, neither come hither to draw.
16 Jesus saith unto her, Go, call thy husband, and come hither.
17 The woman answered and said, I have no husband. Jesus said unto her, Thou hast well said, I have no husband:
18 For thou hast had five husbands; and he whom thou now hast is not thy husband: in that saidst thou truly.
19 The woman saith unto him, Sir, I perceive that thou art a prophet.
20 Our fathers worshipped in this mountain; and ye say, that in Jerusalem is the place where men ought to worship.
21 Jesus saith unto her, Woman, believe me, the hour cometh, when ye shall neither in this mountain, nor yet at Jerusalem, worship the Father.
22 Ye worship ye know not what: we know what we worship: for salvation is of the Jews.
23 But the hour cometh, and now is, when the true worshippers shall worship the Father in spirit and in truth: for the Father seeketh such to worship him.
24 God is a Spirit: and they that worship him must worship him in spirit and in truth.
25 The woman saith unto him, I know that Messias cometh, which is called Christ: when he is come, he will tell us all things.
26 Jesus saith unto her, I that speak unto thee am he.
27 And upon this came his disciples, and marvelled that he talked with the woman: yet no man said, What seekest thou? or, Why talkest thou with her?
28 The woman then left her waterpot, and went her way into the city, and saith to the men,
29 Come, see a man, which told me all things that ever I did: is not this the Christ?
30 Then they went out of the city, and came unto him.
31 In the mean while his disciples prayed him, saying, Master, eat.
32 But he said unto them, I have meat to eat that ye know not of.
33 Therefore said the disciples one to another, Hath any man brought him ought to eat?
34 Jesus saith unto them, My meat is to do the will of him that sent me, and to finish his work.
35 Say not ye, There are yet four months, and then cometh harvest? behold, I say unto you, Lift up your eyes, and look on the fields; for they are white already to harvest.
36 And he that reapeth receiveth wages, and gathereth fruit unto life eternal: that both he that soweth and he that reapeth may rejoice together.
37 And herein is that saying true, One soweth, and another reapeth.
38 I sent you to reap that whereon ye bestowed no labour: other men laboured, and ye are entered into their labours.
39 And many of the Samaritans of that city believed on him for the saying of the woman, which testified, He told me all that ever I did.
40 So when the Samaritans were come unto him, they besought him that he would tarry with them: and he abode there two days.
41 And many more believed because of his own word;
42 And said unto the woman, Now we believe, not because of thy saying: for we have heard him ourselves, and know that this is indeed the Christ, the Saviour of the world.
43 Now after two days he departed thence, and went into Galilee.
44 For Jesus himself testified, that a prophet hath no honour in his own country.
45 Then when he was come into Galilee, the Galilaeans received him, having seen all the things that he did at Jerusalem at the feast: for they also went unto the feast.
46 So Jesus came again into Cana of Galilee, where he made the water wine. And there was a certain nobleman, whose son was sick at Capernaum.
47 When he heard that Jesus was come out of Judaea into Galilee, he went unto him, and besought him that he would come down, and heal his son: for he was at the point of death.
48 Then said Jesus unto him, Except ye see signs and wonders, ye will not believe.
49 The nobleman saith unto him, Sir, come down ere my child die.
50 Jesus saith unto him, Go thy way; thy son liveth. And the man believed the word that Jesus had spoken unto him, and he went his way.
51 And as he was now going down, his servants met him, and told him, saying, Thy son liveth.
52 Then enquired he of them the hour when he began to amend. And they said unto him, Yesterday at the seventh hour the fever left him.
53 So the father knew that it was at the same hour, in the which Jesus said unto him, Thy son liveth: and himself believed, and his whole house.
54 This is again the second miracle that Jesus did, when he was come out of Judaea into Galilee.
John 4
New King James Version
A Samaritan Woman Meets Her Messiah
4 Therefore, when the Lord knew that the Pharisees had heard that Jesus made and (A)baptized more disciples than John 2 (though Jesus Himself did not baptize, but His disciples), 3 He left Judea and departed again to Galilee. 4 But He needed to go through Samaria.
5 So He came to a city of Samaria which is called Sychar, near the plot of ground that (B)Jacob (C)gave to his son Joseph. 6 Now Jacob’s well was there. Jesus therefore, being wearied from His journey, sat thus by the well. It was about the sixth hour.
7 A woman of Samaria came to draw water. Jesus said to her, “Give Me a drink.” 8 For His disciples had gone away into the city to buy food.
9 Then the woman of Samaria said to Him, “How is it that You, being a Jew, ask a drink from me, a Samaritan woman?” For (D)Jews have no dealings with (E)Samaritans.
10 Jesus answered and said to her, “If you knew the (F)gift of God, and who it is who says to you, ‘Give Me a drink,’ you would have asked Him, and He would have given you (G)living water.”
11 The woman said to Him, “Sir, You have nothing to draw with, and the well is deep. Where then do You get that living water? 12 Are You greater than our father Jacob, who gave us the well, and drank from it himself, as well as his sons and his livestock?”
13 Jesus answered and said to her, “Whoever drinks of this water will thirst again, 14 but (H)whoever drinks of the water that I shall give him will never thirst. But the water that I shall give him (I)will become in him a fountain of water springing up into everlasting life.”
15 (J)The woman said to Him, “Sir, give me this water, that I may not thirst, nor come here to draw.”
16 Jesus said to her, “Go, call your husband, and come here.”
17 The woman answered and said, “I have no husband.”
Jesus said to her, “You have well said, ‘I have no husband,’ 18 for you have had five husbands, and the one whom you now have is not your husband; in that you spoke truly.”
19 The woman said to Him, “Sir, (K)I perceive that You are a prophet. 20 Our fathers worshiped on (L)this mountain, and you Jews say that in (M)Jerusalem is the place where one ought to worship.”
21 Jesus said to her, “Woman, believe Me, the hour is coming (N)when you will neither on this mountain, nor in Jerusalem, worship the Father. 22 You worship (O)what you do not know; we know what we worship, for (P)salvation is of the Jews. 23 But the hour is coming, and now is, when the true worshipers will (Q)worship the Father in (R)spirit (S)and truth; for the Father is seeking such to worship Him. 24 (T)God is Spirit, and those who worship Him must worship in spirit and truth.”
25 The woman said to Him, “I know that Messiah (U)is coming” (who is called Christ). “When He comes, (V)He will tell us all things.”
26 Jesus said to her, (W)“I who speak to you am He.”
The Whitened Harvest
27 And at this point His disciples came, and they marveled that He talked with a woman; yet no one said, “What do You seek?” or, “Why are You talking with her?”
28 The woman then left her waterpot, went her way into the city, and said to the men, 29 “Come, see a Man (X)who told me all things that I ever did. Could this be the Christ?” 30 Then they went out of the city and came to Him.
31 In the meantime His disciples urged Him, saying, “Rabbi, eat.”
32 But He said to them, “I have food to eat of which you do not know.”
33 Therefore the disciples said to one another, “Has anyone brought Him anything to eat?”
34 Jesus said to them, (Y)“My food is to do the will of Him who sent Me, and to (Z)finish His work. 35 Do you not say, ‘There are still four months and then comes (AA)the harvest’? Behold, I say to you, lift up your eyes and look at the fields, (AB)for they are already white for harvest! 36 (AC)And he who reaps receives wages, and gathers fruit for eternal life, that (AD)both he who sows and he who reaps may rejoice together. 37 For in this the saying is true: (AE)‘One sows and another reaps.’ 38 I sent you to reap that for which you have not labored; (AF)others have labored, and you have entered into their labors.”
The Savior of the World
39 And many of the Samaritans of that city believed in Him (AG)because of the word of the woman who testified, “He told me all that I ever did.” 40 So when the Samaritans had come to Him, they urged Him to stay with them; and He stayed there two days. 41 And many more believed because of His own (AH)word.
42 Then they said to the woman, “Now we believe, not because of what you said, for (AI)we ourselves have heard Him and we know that this is indeed [a]the Christ, the Savior of the world.”
Welcome at Galilee
43 Now after the two days He departed from there and went to Galilee. 44 For (AJ)Jesus Himself testified that a prophet has no honor in his own country. 45 So when He came to Galilee, the Galileans received Him, (AK)having seen all the things He did in Jerusalem at the feast; (AL)for they also had gone to the feast.
A Nobleman’s Son Healed
46 So Jesus came again to Cana of Galilee (AM)where He had made the water wine. And there was a certain [b]nobleman whose son was sick at Capernaum. 47 When he heard that Jesus had come out of Judea into Galilee, he went to Him and implored Him to come down and heal his son, for he was at the point of death. 48 Then Jesus said to him, (AN)“Unless you people see signs and wonders, you will by no means believe.”
49 The nobleman said to Him, “Sir, come down before my child dies!”
50 Jesus said to him, “Go your way; your son lives.” So the man believed the word that Jesus spoke to him, and he went his way. 51 And as he was now going down, his servants met him and told him, saying, “Your son lives!”
52 Then he inquired of them the hour when he got better. And they said to him, “Yesterday at the seventh hour the fever left him.” 53 So the father knew that it was at the same hour in which Jesus said to him, “Your son lives.” And he himself believed, and his whole household.
54 This again is the second sign Jesus did when He had come out of Judea into Galilee.
