约翰福音 7
Chinese Contemporary Bible (Simplified)
耶稣的弟弟不信祂
7 之后,耶稣周游加利利,不愿去犹太地区,因为犹太人想要杀祂。 2 犹太人的住棚节快到了, 3 耶稣的弟弟们对祂说:“离开这里,去犹太过节吧,好让你的门徒在那里也看见你所做的啊! 4 因为人想出名,都不会暗地里行事,你既然可以做这些事,就把自己显给世人看吧!” 5 原来连祂的弟弟们也不信祂。
6 耶稣对他们说:“我的时候还没有到,你们什么时候都很方便。 7 世人不会恨你们,只会恨我,因为我指证他们行为邪恶。 8 你们先去过节吧,我现在还不上去,因为我的时候还没有到。” 9 耶稣说完这些话,仍留在加利利。
耶稣过住棚节
10 他们走了以后,耶稣避开了人们的注意,暗地里上去过节。 11 节期到了,犹太人到处查问:“耶稣在哪里?”
12 众人对祂议论纷纷,有些人说:“祂是好人,”有些说:“不,祂欺骗民众。” 13 不过,没有人敢公开议论祂的事,因为害怕犹太人。
14 节期约过了一半,耶稣来到圣殿教导人。 15 犹太人感到惊奇,说:“这个人没有受过教育,怎么懂得这么多呢?”
16 耶稣说:“我的教导不是出于我自己,而是出于差我来的那位。 17 如果你们愿意遵行上帝的旨意,就能分辨这些教导是出于上帝,还是出于我自己。 18 凭自己讲论的人是要寻求自己的荣耀,但人子真实无伪,毫无不义,祂是为了使差祂来的那位得荣耀。 19 摩西不是把律法传给了你们吗?你们却没有一个人遵守。为什么想要杀我呢?”
20 众人回答说:“你一定是被鬼附身了!谁要杀你啊?”
21 耶稣说:“我行了一件神迹,你们都感到惊奇。 22 摩西把割礼传给你们,你们也在安息日行割礼。其实割礼不是摩西定的,而是从祖先们的时代就有了。 23 为了避免违背摩西的律法,行割礼的那一天就算是安息日,你们还是照行。那么,我在安息日使一个病人完全康复,你们为什么责怪我呢? 24 不要根据外表来断定是非,要按公义的原则判断。”
耶稣是基督吗
25 有些住在耶路撒冷的人说:“这不是他们要杀的那个人吗? 26 你看祂这样公开讲道,居然没有人说什么,难道官长也真的认为祂是基督吗? 27 可是基督来的时候,根本没有人知道祂从哪里来,我们却知道这个人是从哪里来的。”
28 于是,耶稣在圣殿里高声教导人说:“你们知道我是谁,也知道我是从哪里来的。其实我来不是出于自己的意思,差我来的那位是真实的,你们不认识祂。 29 但我认识祂,因为我是从祂那里来的,差我来的就是祂。” 30 他们听了,想捉拿耶稣,只是没有人下手,因为祂的时候还没有到。
31 人群中有许多人信了耶稣,他们说:“基督来的时候所行的神迹,难道会比这个人行得更多吗?”
32 法利赛人听见众人这样议论耶稣,就联合祭司长派差役去抓祂。 33 耶稣对众人说:“我暂时还会跟你们在一起,不久我要回到差我来的那位那里。 34 那时你们要找我却找不到,你们也不能去我所在的地方。”
35 犹太人彼此议论说:“祂要去哪里使我们找不着呢?难道祂要到我们犹太人侨居的希腊各地去教导希腊人吗? 36 祂说我们找不到祂,又不能去祂所在的地方,是什么意思?”
活水的江河
37 节期最后一天,也是整个节期的高潮,耶稣站起来高声说:“人若渴了,可以到我这里来喝。 38 正如圣经所言,信我的人,‘从他里面要流出活水的江河来’。” 39 耶稣这话是指信祂的人要得到圣灵,但当时圣灵还没有降临,因为耶稣还没有得到荣耀。
40 听见这些话后,有些人说:“祂真是那位先知。” 41 也有些人说:“祂是基督。”还有些人说:“不会吧,基督怎么会出自加利利呢? 42 圣经上不是说基督是大卫的后裔,要降生在大卫的故乡伯利恒吗?” 43 众人因为对耶稣的看法不同,就起了纷争。 44 有些人想抓祂,只是没有人下手。
犹太官长不信耶稣
45 祭司长和法利赛人看见差役空手回来,就问:“你们为什么不把祂带来呢?”
46 差役答道:“从未有人像祂那样说话!”
47 法利赛人说:“难道你们也被祂迷惑了吗? 48 哪有官长和法利赛人信祂呢? 49 这群不明白律法的民众该受咒诅!”
50 曾经夜访耶稣、属于他们当中一员的尼哥德慕说: 51 “难道不听被告申辩,不查明事实真相,我们的律法就定祂的罪吗?”
52 他们回答说:“难道你也是加利利人吗?你去查查看,就会知道没有先知是从加利利来的。”
Yochanan 7
Orthodox Jewish Bible
7 And after these things Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach itinerated in the Galil, for he was not wanting to move about in Yehudah, because those of Yehudah were seeking to kill him.
2 Now the Chag of Sukkot was near. [VAYIKRA 23:34; DEVARIM 16:16]
3 His achim then said to him, Leave here and go away into the land of Yehudah, that also your talmidim will see your ma’asim which you do.
4 For no one who seeks public notice does anything besod (secretly). If these things you do, then manifest yourself to HaOlam.
5 For not even the achim of Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach were believing in him. [TEHILLIM 69:8]
6 Therefore, Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach says to them, My sha’ah has not yet come, but your time is always ready.
7 The Olam Hazeh is not capable of sin’ah (hatred) toward you, but the Olam Hazeh hates me, and for this reason: I give solemn edut (testimony) about it because the ma’asim of the Olam Hazeh are ra’'im (evil).
8 You make aliyah leregel up to the Chag (Feast). I am not going up to this Chag (Feast), because my time has not yet been fulfilled.
9 And having said these things, Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach remained in the Galil.
10 But when the achim of him made aliyah leregel to the Chag (Feast), then also Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach went up [Yochanan 5:30] not publicly but besod (secretly).
11 Then those of Yehudah were seeking Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach in the Chag (Feast) and were saying, Where is that man?
12 And there was much telunnah (murmuring) about Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach among the multitudes. Some were saying, He is tov (good), but others were saying, Lo (no), he deceives the multitude.
13 No one, however, was speaking openly about Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach because of the fear of those of Yehudah.
14 But around the middle period of the Chag (Feast), Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach went up to the Beis Hamikdash and was saying shiurim (teaching torah).
15 Therefore, those of Yehudah were marveling, saying, How has this man binah (understanding) of a Yeshiva yode’a sefer (scholar), not having learned?
16 Therefore, in reply, Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach said, My Torah (teaching) is not mine but of the One having sent me.
17 If anyone wants to do the ratzon Hashem, he will have da’as about my Torah, whether it is of Hashem or I speak only from myself. [TEHILLIM 25:14; 92:16; BAMIDBAR 16:28]
18 The one speaking from himself seeks his own kavod (glory), but he who is seeking the kavod of the One having sent him, this one is ne’eman and there is no avlah (injustice) in him.
19 Has not Moshe given you the Torah? None of you is able to be shomer chukkat Torah. Why are you seeking to kill me? [DEVARIM 32:46; MISHLE 20:9; KOHELET 7:20; YESHAYAH 53:6]
20 The multitude said, You have a shed (demon). Who is seeking to kill you?
21 In reply, Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach said to them, Of the Pe’ulot of Hashem, I accomplished echad, one pe’ulah, and everyone marvels.
22 Moshe has given you bris milah not that bris milah is of Moshe, but it is of the Avot, and on a Shabbos you perpetually perform bris milah. [BERESHIS 17:10-14; 21:4; VAYIKRA 12:3]
23 If a man receives bris milah on Shabbos and lo tufar Torat Moshe (the Torah of Moses may not be broken, BERESHIS 17:14) are you angry with me because I gave a man refu’ah shleimah on Shabbos?
24 Do not judge according to appearance but judge with mishpat tzedek. [ZECHARYAH 7:9; SHMUEL ALEF 16:7; YESHAYAH 11:3 4; VAYIKRA 19:15]
25 Therefore, some of the ones of Yerushalayim were saying, Is it not this man whom they are seeking to kill?
26 And, hinei, he speaks publicly and they say nothing to him. Perhaps the manhigim (the gedolim of Judaism) have da’as that this man is the Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach?
27 But this man, we have da’as where he is from; but the Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach, whenever he comes, no one has da’as where he is from.
28 Therefore, in the Beis Hamikdash while teaching, Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach cried out, saying, You have da’as of me, and you have da’as of where I am from. I have not come on my own, but the One Who sent me is ne’eman. He is the One of Whom you do not have da’as.
29 I have da’as of Him, because from Him Ani Hu, and He is the One Who sent me.
30 Therefore, they were seeking to arrest him, and no one laid a hand on him, because his sha’ah (hour, time) had not yet come.
31 From the multitude, however, many put their emunah, their bitachon, in him, and were saying, The Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach, whenever he comes, surely he will not do more otot (miraculous signs) than the things which this man did?
32 The Perushim heard the telunnah (murmuring) of these things from the multitude, the talk about Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach, and they sent the Rashei Hakohanim and the mesharetim of the Perushim that they might arrest him.
33 Therefore, he said, Yet a little time I am with you and I go away to the One having sent me.
34 You will seek me and not find me and where Ani Hu you are not able to come.
35 Therefore, those of Yehudah said to themselves, Where is this man about to journey that we will not find him? Surely he is not about to sojourn to the Golus of the Yevanim (Greeks) to teach the Yevanim? [MISHLE 1:28]
36 What is this dvar which he said, You will seek me and will not find me and where Ani Hu, you are not able to come?
37 Now on the last day of the Chag, Hoshana Rabbah, Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach cried out, saying, If anyone thirsts let him come to me and drink. [Lv 23:36; Isa 55:1; 12:3; 49:10]
38 The one with emunah in me, as the Kitvei Hakodesh said, ‘Out of the midst of him, rivers of MAYIM CHAYYIM [Zech 14:8] will flow.’ [Prov 18:4; Isa 44:3; 58:11; 43:19f, Ezek 47:1-12; Joel 4:18; Song 4:15].
39 But this he said about the Ruach Hakodesh which the ones having emunah (faith) in him were about to receive, for the Ruach Hakodesh had not yet been given, because he had not yet received kavod. [YOEL 2:28 (3:1)]
40 Some of the multitude, therefore, having heard these dvarim were saying, This man is beemes the Navi.
41 Others were saying, This man is the Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach. But some were saying, Surely the Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach comes not from the Galil, does he?
42 Has not the Kitvei Hakodesh said that the Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach is from the zera Dovid and from Beit-Lechem, the shtetl where Dovid lived? [2Sm 7:12; Psa 89:3-4; Mic 5:1(2); Jer 23:5]
43 A machloket (controversy), therefore, occurred among the multitude because of Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach.
44 And some of them were wanting to arrest him, but no one laid his hands on him.
45 Then the avadim of the Rashei Hakohanim and Perushim came and the Rashei Hakohanim and Perushim said to them, Why did you not bring him?
46 In reply, the avadim said, Never Ish spoke like this Ish.
47 In reply, therefore, the Perushim said, Surely not you also have been deceived?
48 Has any of the manhigim put their emunah (faith) in him, or any of the Perushim [T.N.but cf Yn 7:50; 19:39]?
49 But this am ha’aretz crowd has no da’as of Torah and is cursed. [DEVARIM 27:26]
50 Rav Nakdimon, the one having come to Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach earlier, being one of their own, says to them,
51 Surely Torateinu (Our Torah) judges not the Man unless it hears first from the Man himself and has da’as of what he does, does it? [Dt 1:16; 17:6; Ex 23:1]
52 They answered and said to Rav Nakdimon, Surely not you also are from the Galil, are you? Search [the Kitvei Hakodesh] and see that from the Galil a Navi does not arise. [T.N. but cf 2Kgs 14:25; Isa 9:1,2]
53 And they went each one to his bais.
