治好水臌病的人
14 在安息日,耶稣进了一个法利赛人领袖的家里吃饭,众人都在窥探他。 2 正好在他面前有一个患水臌病的人; 3 耶稣对律法师和法利赛人说:“在安息日治病,可以不可以呢?” 4 他们却不出声。耶稣扶着病人,治好他,叫他走了, 5 就对他们说:“你们中间谁的儿子或牛在安息日掉在井里,不立刻把他拉上来呢?” 6 他们不能回答这些话。
耶稣教训筵席的主人(参(A)
7 耶稣看见被邀请的客人选择高位,就用比喻对他们说: 8 “你被邀请参加婚筵的时候,不要自己坐在高位上,恐怕有比你更尊贵的客人也被请来; 9 那请你又请他的人过来对你说:‘请你让位给这个人。’那时你就惭愧地退居末位了。 10 你被邀请的时候,要坐在末位上,等请你的人过来对你说:‘朋友,请上座。’那时你在同席的人面前才有光彩。 11 因为凡高抬自己的,必要降卑;自己谦卑的,必要升高。” 12 耶稣又对邀请他的人说:“你设午餐或晚宴,不要请你的朋友、弟兄、亲戚或富裕的邻舍,恐怕他们又回请你,你就得了报答。 13 你摆筵席的时候,总要邀请那贫穷的、残废的、瘸腿的、瞎眼的, 14 那你就有福了。因为他们没有甚么可以报答你,义人复活的时候,你必定得着报答。”
婚筵的比喻(参(B)
15 一起吃饭的人中有一个,听了这些话,就对耶稣说:“在 神的国里吃饭的人有福了。” 16 耶稣对他说:“有一个人大摆筵席,请了许多客人。 17 到了开席的时候,他打发仆人去对所请的人说:‘请来吧!样样都准备好了。’ 18 众人一致推辞,头一个说:‘我买了一块地,不得不去看一看,请原谅我。’ 19 另一个说:‘我买了五对牛,要去试一试,请原谅我。’ 20 又一个说:‘我刚结了婚,不能去。’ 21 仆人回来把这些事告诉他主人,家主就发怒,对仆人说:‘快到城里大街小巷去,把贫穷的、残废的、瞎眼的、瘸腿的,都领到这里来。’ 22 仆人说:‘主啊,你所吩咐的已经办了,还有空位。’ 23 主人就对仆人说:‘你出去到路边篱畔,勉强人进来,好把我的屋子坐满。 24 我告诉你们,先前请的那些人,一个也不得尝我的筵席。’”
作门徒的代价(参(C)
25 有许多人与耶稣同行,他转身对他们说: 26 “如果有人到我这里来,爱我不超过爱(“爱我不超过爱”原文作“不恨”)自己的父母、妻子、儿女、兄弟、姊妹,甚至自己的性命,就不能作我的门徒。 27 凡不背着自己的十字架跟随我的,也不能作我的门徒。 28 你们当中有谁要盖一座楼,不先坐下计算费用,能不能盖成呢? 29 恐怕安了地基,而不能完成,所有看见的人都讥笑他, 30 说:‘这个人开了工,却不能完工。’ 31 或者一个王去和别的王打仗,哪有不先坐下想想,能否用一万兵去抵抗那领两万来攻打他的呢? 32 如果不能,就该趁对方还远的时候,派使者去谈判和平的条件。 33 这样,你们中间不论谁,如果不撇下一切所有的,就不能作我的门徒。
34 “盐本来是好的,但如果失了味,怎能使它再咸呢? 35 或用在田里,或放在粪里,都不合适;只好扔在外面。有耳可听的,就应当听。”

论安息日治病
14 有个安息日,耶稣到一位法利赛人的首领家里作客,人们密切地监视祂。 2 当时有一个患水肿病的人在耶稣面前, 3 耶稣问法利赛人和律法教师:“在安息日可以医病吗?”
4 他们都闭口不言。耶稣便扶着那人把他医好,叫他走了, 5 然后又问他们:“如果你们有驴[a]或牛在安息日掉进井里,难道你们不会立刻把它拉上来吗?” 6 他们都哑口无言。
论谦卑
7 耶稣在宴席中看见宾客们都争着坐首位,就用比喻对他们说: 8 “参加婚宴的时候,不要坐在首位,因为或许有更尊贵的宾客来赴宴, 9 主人会把他带到你面前,说,‘请你把首位让给他吧!’你就要满面羞愧地退到末位去了。 10 你去赴宴时,应该先坐在末位,这样主人会对你说,‘朋友,请上坐!’那时,你在宾客面前就有光彩了。 11 因为自高的人必遭贬抑,谦卑的人必得尊荣。”
论待客之道
12 耶稣又对主人说:“摆设午宴、晚宴时,不要邀请你的朋友、弟兄、亲戚或有钱的邻居,免得他们回请你,你便得到报答了。 13 相反,你设宴时,要邀请贫穷的、残疾的、瘸腿的、瞎眼的, 14 这样你就有福了,因为他们都没有能力回报你,到了义人复活那天,上帝一定会赏赐你。”
大宴席的比喻
15 同席的一个客人听了这番话,就对耶稣说:“能够在上帝的国坐席的人多么有福啊!”
16 于是,耶稣对他说:“有一个人大摆宴席,邀请了许多客人。 17 要开席的时候,主人就派奴仆去对客人说,‘一切都准备好了,来赴宴吧!’ 18 可是,他们都找借口推辞。头一个说,‘我刚买了一块田,必须去看一看,请恕我不能参加。’ 19 另一个说,‘我新买了五对牛,要去试一试,请恕我不能参加。’ 20 还有一个说,‘我刚结了婚,所以不能去。’ 21 奴仆回来将这些话告诉主人,主人非常生气,于是对奴仆说,‘快出去到城里的大街小巷把贫穷的、残疾的、瘸腿的、瞎眼的都请来。’ 22 奴仆说,‘主人啊,我照你的吩咐办了,可是还有空位。’ 23 主人又说,‘出去到大路上、篱笆旁硬把人拉来,让我家里座无虚席。 24 我告诉你们,原来邀请的那些人没有一个能尝到我的宴席!’”
做门徒的代价
25 有一大群人跟着耶稣,祂转身对他们说: 26 “若有人要跟从我,就要爱我胜过爱他的父母、妻子、儿女、弟兄、姊妹,甚至自己的生命,否则就不能做我的门徒。 27 若不背起自己的十字架跟从我,就不能做我的门徒。
28 “哪有人建楼房不事先坐下来计算成本,看能否建成? 29 否则,打好了地基却不能完工,徒惹别人嘲笑, 30 ‘这个人开了工,却不能完工!’
31 “哪有王要跟另一个王打仗时,不先坐下来酌量一下自己的一万人是否敌得过对方的两万人? 32 如果自知不敌,一定趁敌人还远的时候,就差使者去求和。
33 “同样,你们若不撇下一切,就不能做我的门徒。 34 盐本来是好的,但如果盐失去了咸味,怎能使它再变咸呢? 35 没有味的盐,既不利于土壤,也不适宜作肥料,只好丢掉。有耳可听的,就应当听。”

Luke 14
New International Version
Jesus at a Pharisee’s House(A)
14 One Sabbath, when Jesus went to eat in the house of a prominent Pharisee,(B) he was being carefully watched.(C) 2 There in front of him was a man suffering from abnormal swelling of his body. 3 Jesus asked the Pharisees and experts in the law,(D) “Is it lawful to heal on the Sabbath or not?”(E) 4 But they remained silent. So taking hold of the man, he healed him and sent him on his way.
5 Then he asked them, “If one of you has a child[a] or an ox that falls into a well on the Sabbath day, will you not immediately pull it out?”(F) 6 And they had nothing to say.
7 When he noticed how the guests picked the places of honor at the table,(G) he told them this parable: 8 “When someone invites you to a wedding feast, do not take the place of honor, for a person more distinguished than you may have been invited. 9 If so, the host who invited both of you will come and say to you, ‘Give this person your seat.’ Then, humiliated, you will have to take the least important place. 10 But when you are invited, take the lowest place, so that when your host comes, he will say to you, ‘Friend, move up to a better place.’ Then you will be honored in the presence of all the other guests. 11 For all those who exalt themselves will be humbled, and those who humble themselves will be exalted.”(H)
12 Then Jesus said to his host, “When you give a luncheon or dinner, do not invite your friends, your brothers or sisters, your relatives, or your rich neighbors; if you do, they may invite you back and so you will be repaid. 13 But when you give a banquet, invite the poor, the crippled, the lame, the blind,(I) 14 and you will be blessed. Although they cannot repay you, you will be repaid at the resurrection of the righteous.”(J)
The Parable of the Great Banquet(K)
15 When one of those at the table with him heard this, he said to Jesus, “Blessed is the one who will eat at the feast(L) in the kingdom of God.”(M)
16 Jesus replied: “A certain man was preparing a great banquet and invited many guests. 17 At the time of the banquet he sent his servant to tell those who had been invited, ‘Come, for everything is now ready.’
18 “But they all alike began to make excuses. The first said, ‘I have just bought a field, and I must go and see it. Please excuse me.’
19 “Another said, ‘I have just bought five yoke of oxen, and I’m on my way to try them out. Please excuse me.’
20 “Still another said, ‘I just got married, so I can’t come.’
21 “The servant came back and reported this to his master. Then the owner of the house became angry and ordered his servant, ‘Go out quickly into the streets and alleys of the town and bring in the poor, the crippled, the blind and the lame.’(N)
22 “‘Sir,’ the servant said, ‘what you ordered has been done, but there is still room.’
23 “Then the master told his servant, ‘Go out to the roads and country lanes and compel them to come in, so that my house will be full. 24 I tell you, not one of those who were invited will get a taste of my banquet.’”(O)
The Cost of Being a Disciple
25 Large crowds were traveling with Jesus, and turning to them he said: 26 “If anyone comes to me and does not hate father and mother, wife and children, brothers and sisters—yes, even their own life—such a person cannot be my disciple.(P) 27 And whoever does not carry their cross and follow me cannot be my disciple.(Q)
28 “Suppose one of you wants to build a tower. Won’t you first sit down and estimate the cost to see if you have enough money to complete it? 29 For if you lay the foundation and are not able to finish it, everyone who sees it will ridicule you, 30 saying, ‘This person began to build and wasn’t able to finish.’
31 “Or suppose a king is about to go to war against another king. Won’t he first sit down and consider whether he is able with ten thousand men to oppose the one coming against him with twenty thousand? 32 If he is not able, he will send a delegation while the other is still a long way off and will ask for terms of peace. 33 In the same way, those of you who do not give up everything you have cannot be my disciples.(R)
34 “Salt is good, but if it loses its saltiness, how can it be made salty again?(S) 35 It is fit neither for the soil nor for the manure pile; it is thrown out.(T)
“Whoever has ears to hear, let them hear.”(U)

治好百夫长的仆人(A)
7 耶稣向群众讲完这一切话,就进了迦百农。 2 有百夫长所重用的一个奴仆,病得快要死了。 3 百夫长听见耶稣的事,就打发犹太人中几个长老到他那里,求他去医治他的奴仆。 4 长老们就来见耶稣,恳切地求他说:“你给他行这事,是他配得的, 5 因为他爱我们的人民,给我们建造会堂。” 6 耶稣就和他们同去。离那家不远的时候,百夫长派几个朋友来说:“主啊,不必劳驾,因为你到舍下来,我实在不敢当, 7 我也觉得没有资格去见你;只要你说一句话,我的仆人就必好了。 8 因为我自己是在别人的权下,也有兵在我以下;我对这个说:‘去!’他就去;对另一个说:‘来!’他就来;对我的仆人说:‘作这个!’他就作。” 9 耶稣听见这些话,就很惊奇,转身对跟随的众人说:“我告诉你们,这样的信心,我在以色列中从来没有见过。” 10 奉派的人回到家里,见那奴仆已经好了。
使拿因城寡妇的儿子复活
11 后来耶稣往拿因城去,与他同去的有门徒和一大群人。 12 他走近城门的时候,有人把一个死人抬出来,是个独生子,他母亲又是个寡妇。城里有一大群人陪着她。 13 主看见了,就怜悯她,对她说:“不要哭!” 14 于是上前按着杠子,抬的人就站住。他说:“青年人,我吩咐你起来!” 15 那死人就坐起来,开口说话,耶稣就把他交给他母亲。 16 众人都惊惧,颂赞 神说:“有伟大的先知在我们中间兴起来了!”又说:“ 神眷顾他的子民了!” 17 于是这话传遍了犹太和周围各地。
约翰派门徒去见耶稣(B)
18 约翰的门徒把这一切事告诉约翰。他就叫了两个门徒, 19 差他们往主那里去,说:“你就是那位要来的,还是我们要等别人呢?” 20 两人来到耶稣跟前,说:“施洗的约翰差我们来问你:‘你就是那位要来的,还是我们要等别人呢?’” 21 就在那时候,耶稣治好许多患疾病的、遭灾难的、身上有污鬼附着的,并且施恩给瞎眼的,使他们看见。 22 耶稣回答他们:“你们回去,把看见和听见的都告诉约翰,就是瞎的可以看见,跛的可以走路,患痲风的得到洁净,聋的可以听见,死人复活,穷人有福音听。 23 那不被我绊倒的,就有福了。”
耶稣论约翰(C)
24 约翰差来的人走了以后,耶稣对群众讲起约翰来,说:“你们到旷野去,是要看甚么?被风吹动的芦苇吗? 25 你们出去到底要看甚么?身穿华丽衣服的人吗?这些衣服华丽,生活奢侈的人,是在王宫里的。 26 那么,你们出去要看甚么?先知吗?我告诉你们,是的。他比先知重要得多了。 27 圣经所记:
‘看哪,我差遣我的使者在你面前,
他必在你前头预备你的道路’,
这句话是指着他说的。 28 我告诉你们,妇人所生的,没有一个比约翰更大,然而在 神的国里最小的比他还大。” 29 众人和税吏受过约翰的洗礼,听见这话,就称 神为义。 30 但法利赛人和律法师,未受过约翰的洗礼,就拒绝 神对他们的美意。 31 耶稣又说:“我要把这世代的人比作甚么呢?他们好象甚么呢? 32 他们好象小孩子坐在巿中心,彼此呼叫,说:
‘我们给你们吹笛子,你们却不跳舞;
我们唱哀歌,你们也不啼哭。’
33 因为施洗的约翰来了,不吃饭,不喝酒,你们说他是鬼附的。 34 人子来了,又吃又喝,你们说:‘你看,这人贪食好酒,与税吏和罪人为友。’ 35 但 神的智慧,借着他的儿女就证实是公义的了。”
赦免犯了罪的女人(参(D)
36 有一个法利赛人,请耶稣同他吃饭,他就到法利赛人家去赴席。 37 那城里有一个女人,是个罪人,知道他在法利赛人家里吃饭,就拿着一瓶香膏, 38 站在耶稣背后,挨近他的脚哭,眼泪滴湿他的脚,又用自己的头发擦干,不住地吻他的脚,并且抹上香膏。 39 请他的法利赛人看见了,心里说:“这人若是先知,必定知道摸他的是谁,是怎样的女人,因为她是个罪人!” 40 耶稣对他说:“西门,我有句话要对你说。”他说:“老师,请说。” 41 耶稣说:“一个债主有两个债户,一个欠五百银币,一个欠五十。 42 他们都无力偿还,债主就把两人豁免了。他们之中哪一个更爱他呢?” 43 西门回答:“我想是那个多得恩免的。”耶稣说:“你判断对了。” 44 于是转身向着那女人,对西门说:“你看见这女人吗?我进了你的家,你没有给我水洗脚,但这女人用眼泪湿了我的脚,用头发擦干。 45 你没有和我亲吻;但这女人,自从我进来,就不住地亲我的脚。 46 你没有用油抹我的头;但这女人用香膏抹我的脚。 47 所以我告诉你,她许多罪都蒙赦免了,因为她的爱多;那赦免少的,爱就少。” 48 耶稣就对她说:“你的罪赦免了。” 49 跟他一起吃饭的人心里说:“这是谁,竟然赦罪呢?” 50 耶稣对那女人说:“你的信救了你,平安地去吧!”
跟从耶稣的妇女
8 不久,耶稣周游各城各村讲道,宣扬 神的国的福音,和他在一起的有十二个门徒, 2 还有几个蒙了医治、脱离污鬼与疾病的妇女,其中有称为抹大拉的马利亚,曾有七个鬼从她身上赶出来; 3 有希律的管家古撒的妻子约亚拿,又有苏珊娜,和许多别的妇女,她们都用自己的财物供给耶稣和门徒。

4 当时有许多人聚在一起,还有人从各城来到耶稣那里,他就用比喻说: 5 “有一个撒种的出去撒种,撒的时候,有的落在路旁,被人践踏,或给空中的小鸟吃掉。 6 有的落在石头地上,一长出来就枯萎了,因为得不着滋润。 7 有的落在荆棘丛中,荆棘也一齐生长,把它挤住了。 8 有的落在好土里,就生长起来,结出百倍的果实。”他说了这些话,就大声说:“有耳可听的,就应当听!”
用比喻的目的(F)
9 门徒问他这比喻是甚么意思。 10 他说:“ 神的国的奥秘,只给你们知道,对别人就用比喻,叫他们看却看不见,听却听不明白。
解释撒种的比喻(G)
11 “这比喻是说,种子是 神的道, 12 那落在路旁的,就是人听了,魔鬼随即来到,从他们心里把道夺去,恐怕他们相信就得救了。 13 那落在石头地上的,就是人听了,欢欢喜喜地接受,但是没有根,不过是暂时相信,一旦遭遇试炼,就倒退了。 14 那落在荆棘里的,就是人听了,走开以后,被今世的忧虑、财富和宴乐挤住了,结不出成熟的子粒来。 15 但那落在好土里的,就是人用诚实良善的心来听,把道持守住,忍耐着结出果实。
隐藏的事终必显露(H)
16 “没有人点灯用器皿盖上,或放在床底下,而是放在灯台上,叫进来的人都看得见光。 17 因为没有甚么隐藏的事不被显明,也没有甚么掩盖的事不被人知道而暴露出来。 18 所以你们应当留心怎样听,因为凡是有的,还要给他;凡是没有的,连他自以为有的,也要拿去。”
谁是耶稣的母亲和弟兄(I)
19 耶稣的母亲和弟弟来到他那里,因为人多,不能到他跟前。 20 有人转告耶稣:“你母亲和弟弟站在外面要见你。” 21 他回答他们:“听了 神的道而遵行的人,才是我的母亲,我的弟兄。”
平静风浪(J)
22 有一天,耶稣和门徒上了船,他对他们说:“我们渡到海那边去吧。”他们就开了船。 23 船行的时候,他睡着了。海上忽然起了狂风,他们全身湿透,非常危险。 24 门徒来叫醒耶稣,说:“主啊!主啊!我们没命了!”他醒过来,斥责风浪,风浪就止息、平静了。 25 耶稣对他们说:“你们的信心在哪里?”他们又惧怕、又希奇,彼此说:“这到底是谁?他吩咐风浪,连风浪也听从他。”
治好鬼附的格拉森人(K)
26 船到了格拉森人的地区,正在加利利对面, 27 耶稣一上岸,就有城里一个被鬼附着的人,迎面而来。这人已经很久不穿衣服,不住在家里,只住在坟墓里。 28 他一见耶稣,就俯伏喊叫,大声说:“至高 神的儿子耶稣,我跟你有甚么关系呢?求你不要使我受苦。” 29 因为耶稣已经吩咐这污灵从那人身上出来。原来这污灵屡次抓住那人;那人被铁链和脚炼捆锁,而且有人看管,他竟挣断锁炼,被鬼赶入旷野。 30 耶稣问他:“你叫甚么名字?”他说:“群。”因为进到那人里面的鬼很多。 31 他们求耶稣,不要赶他们进入无底坑。
32 那里有一大群猪正在山上吃东西。他们求耶稣准他们进入猪群。耶稣准许了, 33 鬼就从那人身上出来,进入猪群,猪群闯下山崖,掉在海里淹死了。 34 放猪的看见所发生的事就逃跑,到城里和各乡村把这事传开。 35 众人就出来看发生了甚么事。来到耶稣那里,看见鬼已经离开的那人,穿著衣服,神志清醒,坐在耶稣脚前,他们就害怕。 36 当时看见的人,把被鬼附过的人怎样得到医治,说给他们听。 37 格拉森一带的人,都要求耶稣离开他们,因为他们大大惧怕。他就上船回去了。 38 鬼已经离开的那人求耶稣,要跟他在一起;但耶稣打发他回去,说: 39 “你回家去,述说 神为你作了怎样的事。”他就走遍全城,传讲耶稣为他作了怎样的事。
治好血漏病的女人(L)
40 耶稣回来的时候,众人欢迎他,因为大家都在等着他。 41 那时,有一个人来了,名叫叶鲁,他是一位会堂主管。他俯伏在耶稣脚前,求他往他家里去, 42 因为他的独生女,约十二岁,快要死了。耶稣去的时候,群众拥挤着他。
43 有一个女人,患了十二年的血漏病,在医生手里花尽了全部养生的(有些抄本无“在医生手里花尽了全部养生的”一句),没有一个能医好她。 44 她从后面挤来,一摸耶稣的衣裳繸子,血就立刻止住。 45 耶稣说:“摸我的是谁?”众人都不承认。彼得说:“主啊,众人都拥挤着你。” 46 耶稣说:“必定有人摸我,因为我觉得有能力从我身上出去。” 47 那女人见不能隐瞒,就战战兢兢地过来,向他俯伏,把摸他的缘故,和怎样立刻得到医治,在众人面前说出来。 48 耶稣对她说:“女儿,你的信使你痊愈了,平安地去吧!”
使女孩复活(M)
49 耶稣还在说话的时候,有人从会堂主管家里来,说:“你的女儿死了,不必再劳动老师了。” 50 耶稣听见就对他说:“不要怕,只要信,她必得痊愈。” 51 到了那家,除了彼得、约翰、雅各和女孩的父母以外,他不准任何人同他进屋里去。 52 众人都在为女孩痛哭哀号,他说:“不要哭!她不是死了,而是睡着了。” 53 他们明知女孩已经死了,就嘲笑他。 54 他进去拉着女孩的手,叫她说:“孩子,起来!” 55 她的灵魂回来了,她就立刻起来。耶稣吩咐给她东西吃。 56 她父母非常惊奇。耶稣嘱咐他们不要把他所作的事告诉人。
差遣十二使徒(N)
9 耶稣召齐十二门徒,给他们能力、权柄,制伏一切鬼魔,医治各样的疾病, 2 差遣他们去宣讲 神的国和医治病人, 3 对他们说:“不要带着甚么上路,不要带手杖,不要带口袋,不要带食物,不要带银钱,也不要带两件衣服。 4 无论进哪一家,就住在那里,直到离开。 5 凡不接待你们的,你们离开那城的时候,当把脚上的灰尘跺下去,作为反对他们的表示。” 6 于是他们就出去,走遍各乡,传讲福音,到处医治病人。
希律的困惑(O)
7 分封王希律听见所发生的一切事,犹豫不定,因为有人说:“约翰从死人中复活了。” 8 又有人说:“以利亚显现了。”还有人说:“古时的一位先知复活了。” 9 希律说:“约翰已经斩头了,但这是谁,我怎么会听到他这些事呢?”就设法要见他。
给五千人吃饱的神迹(P)
10 使徒们回来,把所作的事报告耶稣。他带着他们,悄悄地退往伯赛大城去。 11 群众知道了,也跟了去。他接待他们,向他们讲论 神的国,医好需要医治的人。 12 天将晚的时候,十二门徒来到他跟前,说:“请解散众人,好让他们往周围的田舍村庄,去找地方住,找东西吃,因为我们这里是旷野。” 13 他说:“你们给他们吃吧!”他们说:“我们所有的,不过是五个饼两条鱼,除非去为这些人另买食物。” 14 原来男人就约有五千。他对门徒说:“叫他们一组一组地坐下,每组约五十人。” 15 门徒就照他的话,叫众人坐下。 16 耶稣拿起这五个饼,两条鱼,望着天,祝谢了,擘开递给门徒,摆在众人面前。 17 他们都吃饱了,把剩下的零碎拾起来,装满了十二个篮子。
彼得承认耶稣是基督(Q)
18 有一次耶稣独自祈祷的时候,只有门徒和他在一起。他问他们:“人说我是谁?” 19 他们回答:“有人说是施洗的约翰,有人说是以利亚,还有人说是古时的一位先知复活了。” 20 他又问他们:“你们说我是谁?”彼得回答:“是 神的基督!”
耶稣预言受难及复活(R)
21 耶稣警告他们,嘱咐他们,不要把这事告诉人。 22 又说:“人子必须受许多苦,被长老、祭司长,和经学家弃绝、杀害,第三日复活。”
23 耶稣又对众人说:“如果有人愿意跟从我,就当舍己,天天背起他的十字架来跟从我。 24 凡是想救自己生命的,必丧掉生命;但为我牺牲自己生命的,必救了生命。 25 人若赚得全世界,却丧失自己,或赔上自己,有甚么好处呢? 26 凡是把我和我的道当作可耻的,人子在自己与父并圣天使的荣耀里降临的时候,也必把他当作可耻的。 27 我实在告诉你们,站在这里的,有人在没有尝过死味以前必定要看见 神的国。”
在山上改变形象(S)
28 说了这些话以后约有八天,耶稣带着彼得、约翰和雅各,上山去祷告。 29 正祷告的时候,他的面貌就改变了,衣服洁白发光。 30 忽然有两个人和他谈话,就是摩西和以利亚。 31 他们在荣光里显现,谈论他去世的事,就是他在耶路撒冷将要完成的。 32 彼得和同伴都在打盹。醒过来之后,就看见他的荣光,并与他站在一起的那两个人。 33 二人正要离开他的时候,彼得对耶稣说:“主啊,我们在这里真好!我们可以搭三个帐棚,一个为你,一个为摩西,一个为以利亚。”他根本不知道自己在说甚么。 34 他说这话的时候,有一片云彩笼罩他们,他们入了云彩,门徒就害怕起来。 35 有声音从云彩里出来,说:“这是我的儿子,我所拣选的(“这是我的儿子,我所拣选的”有些抄本作“这是我的爱子”),你们要听从他!” 36 声音过了,只见耶稣独自在那里。在那些日子,门徒保持缄默,不把所看见的告诉任何人。
治好癫痫病的小孩(T)
37 第二天,他们下了山,有一大群人迎面而来。 38 在人群中有一个人喊叫说:“老师,求你怜悯我的儿子,因为他是我的独生子。 39 你看,污灵一抓住他,他就忽然喊叫,并且抽疯,口吐白沫;污灵又折磨糟践他,不肯放过他。 40 我求过你的门徒,把他赶出去,他们却办不到。” 41 耶稣说:“唉!这不信又乖谬的世代啊!我跟你们在一起,忍受你们,要到几时呢?把你儿子带到这里来吧!” 42 那孩子正走过来的时候,污鬼把他摔倒,使他重重地抽疯。耶稣斥责那污灵,把孩子医好,交给他父亲。 43 众人都惊奇 神的大能。
第二次预言受难及复活(U)
众人还在希奇耶稣所作的这一切时,他对门徒说: 44 “你们要把这些话存在心里:人子将要被交在人的手里。” 45 门徒不明白这话,因为这话的意思是隐藏的,不让他们明白,他们也不敢问。
门徒争论谁最大(V)
46 后来,门徒起了意见,争论谁是最大的。 47 耶稣看出他们的心意,就领了一个小孩子来,叫他站在自己旁边, 48 对他们说:“凡因我的名接待这小孩子的,就是接待我;凡接待我的,就是接待那差我来的。谁是你们中间最小的,那人就是最大的。” 49 约翰说:“主,我们看见有一个人奉你的名赶鬼,就禁止他,因为他不和我们一起跟从你。” 50 耶稣说:“不要禁止他,因为不反对你们的,就是赞成你们的。”
撒玛利亚人不接待主
51 耶稣被接上升的日子快到了,他就决意向耶路撒冷去, 52 并且差遣使者走在前头;他们去了,进入撒玛利亚的一个村庄,要为他预备。 53 那里的人不接待他,因为他面向着耶路撒冷走。 54 他的门徒雅各、约翰看见了,就说:“主啊,你要我们吩咐火从天降下来,烧灭他们吗?” 55 耶稣就转过身来,责备他们, 56 然后他们就往别的村庄去了。
要求跟从耶稣(W)
57 他们走路的时候,有一个人对他说:“你无论往哪里去,我都要跟从你!” 58 耶稣说:“狐狸有洞,天空的飞鸟有窝,人子却没有栖身的地方。” 59 他对另一个人说:“你跟从我吧!”那人说:“主啊,请准我先回去安葬我的父亲吧。” 60 耶稣说:“让死人去埋葬他们的死人,你应该去传扬 神的国。” 61 又有一个人说:“主,我要跟从你,但容我先回去,向家人道别。” 62 耶稣说:“手扶着犁向后看的,不适合进 神的国。”
差遣七十二人
10 这些事以后,主又另外指派了七十二个人(“七十二个人”有些抄本作“七十个人”),差遣他们两个两个地,在他前面,到他自己将要到的各城各地去。 2 耶稣对他们说:“庄稼多,工人少,所以你们应当求庄稼的主,派工人出去收他的庄稼。 3 你们去吧!我差你们去,如同羊羔进入狼群。 4 不要带钱囊,不要带口袋,不要带鞋,不要在路上问候人。 5 无论进哪一家,先说:‘愿平安归与这家!’ 6 那里若有配得平安的人(“配得平安的人”原文作“平安之子”),你们的平安就必临到他,不然,就归给你们。 7 你们要住在那家,吃喝他们所供给的,因为作工的理当得工资;不必从这家搬到那家。 8 无论进哪一城,人若接待你们,摆上甚么,就吃甚么。 9 要医治城中的病人,对他们宣讲:‘ 神的国临近你们了。’ 10 无论进哪一城,人若不接待你们,你们就出来到街上,说: 11 ‘连你们城里那黏在我们脚上的尘土,我们也要当着你们擦去。虽然这样,你们应该知道: 神的国临近了!’ 12 我告诉你们,当那日,所多玛所受的,比那城所受的还轻呢。
责备不肯悔改的城(X)
13 “哥拉逊啊,你有祸了!伯赛大啊,你有祸了!因为在你们那里行过的神迹,如果行在推罗和西顿,他们早已披麻蒙灰,坐在地上悔改了。 14 在审判的时候,推罗和西顿所受的,比你们所受的还轻呢。 15 还有你,迦百农啊!
你会被高举到天上吗?
你必降到阴间。
16 听从你们的,就是听从我;弃绝你们的,就是弃绝我;弃绝我的,就是弃绝那差我来的。”
七十二人回来
17 那七十二个人欢欢喜喜地回来,说:“主啊,因你的名,连鬼也服了我们。” 18 耶稣说:“我看见撒但,像闪电一样从天坠落。 19 我已经给你们权柄,去践踏蛇和蝎子,胜过仇敌的一切能力。绝对没有甚么能伤害你们了。 20 然而不要因为鬼服了你们就欢喜,却要因为你们的名字记录在天上而欢喜。”
耶稣欢乐赞美天父(Y)
21 就在这时候,耶稣因圣灵而欢乐,说:“父啊,天地的主,我赞美你,因为你把这些事向智慧和聪明的人隐藏起来,却向婴孩显明。父啊,是的,这就是你的美意。 22 我父已经把一切交给我;除了父没有人知道子是谁,除了子和子所愿意启示的人,也没有人知道父是谁。” 23 耶稣转过身来,悄悄地对门徒说:“看见你们所看见的,那眼睛有福了! 24 我告诉你们,曾经有许多先知和君王,想看你们所看见的,却没有看到;想听你们所听见的,却没有听到。”
好撒玛利亚人的比喻(Z)
25 有一个律法师起来试探耶稣,说:“老师,我应该作甚么,才可以承受永生呢?” 26 耶稣对他说:“律法上写的是甚么?你怎么念的呢?” 27 他回答:“你要全心、全性、全力、全意爱主你的 神,并且要爱邻舍如同自己。” 28 耶稣说:“你答得对,你这样行,就必得生命。” 29 那人想证明自己有理,就对耶稣说:“谁是我的邻舍呢?” 30 耶稣回答:“有一个人从耶路撒冷下耶利哥去,落在强盗手中。他们剥去他的衣服,把他打得半死,撇下他一个人就走了。 31 正好有一个祭司,从那条路下来,看见他,就从旁边走过去了。 32 又有一个利未人,来到那里,看见他,也照样从旁边走过去了。 33 只有一个撒玛利亚人,旅行来到他那里,看见了,就动了怜悯的心, 34 上前用油和酒倒在他的伤处,包裹好了,把他扶上自己的牲口,带他到客店里照顾他。 35 第二天,他拿出两个银币交给店主,说:‘请你照顾他,额外的开支,我回来的时候必还给你。’ 36 你想,这三个人,谁是那个落在强盗手中的人的邻舍呢?” 37 他说:“是那怜悯他的。”耶稣说:“你去,照样作吧。”
马大和马利亚
38 他们走路的时候,耶稣进了一个村庄。有一个名叫马大的女人,接他到家里。 39 她有一个妹妹,名叫马利亚,坐在主的脚前听道。 40 马大被许多要作的事,弄得心烦意乱,就上前来,说:“主啊,我妹妹让我一个人侍候,你不理吗?请吩咐她来帮助我。” 41 主回答她:“马大,马大,你为许多事操心忙碌, 42 但是最需要的只有一件,马利亚已经选择了那上好的分,是不能从她夺去的。”
祈求就必得着(AA)
11 有一天,耶稣在一个地方祈祷,祈祷完了,有一个门徒对他说:“主啊,求你教导我们祷告,像约翰教导他的门徒一样。” 2 耶稣说:“你们祷告的时候,要说:
‘父啊,愿你的名被尊为圣,
愿你的国降临(有些抄本在此有“愿你的旨意行在地上,如同行在天上”一句);
3 我们需用的食物,
求你每天赐给我们;
4 赦免我们的罪,
因为我们也饶恕所有亏负我们的人;
不要让我们陷入试探(有些抄本在此有“救我们脱离那恶者”一句)。’”
5 耶稣又对他们说:“你们当中,谁有朋友半夜去找他,说:‘请你借给我三个饼, 6 因为我有一个朋友旅行来到我这里,我没有甚么可以招待他。’ 7 而他却在里面回答:‘不要麻烦我,门已经关好了,孩子也跟我在床上了,我不能起来拿给你。’ 8 我告诉你们,即使不因为他是朋友而起来给他,也会因为他厚颜地直求,而起来照他所需要的给他。 9 我又告诉你们,你们祈求,就给你们;寻找,就寻见;叩门,就给你们开门。 10 因为所有祈求的就得着,寻找的就寻见,叩门的就给他开门。 11 你们中间作父亲的,哪有儿子求鱼,反拿蛇当作鱼给他呢? 12 或求鸡蛋,反给他蝎子呢? 13 你们虽然不好,尚且知道把好东西给自己的儿女,何况天父,岂不更把圣灵赐给求他的人吗?”
耶稣靠 神的能力赶鬼(AB)
14 耶稣赶出一个哑巴鬼,鬼既出去,哑巴就说起话来,众人都希奇。 15 有人说:“他靠鬼王别西卜赶鬼。” 16 又有人试探他,向他求一个从天上来的神迹。 17 耶稣知道他们的心意,就对他们说:“如果一个国家自相纷争,就必定荒凉;如果一个家庭自相为敌,就必然败落。 18 如果撒但自相纷争,他的国怎能站立得住呢?你们说我靠别西卜赶鬼, 19 我若靠别西卜赶鬼,你们的子孙赶鬼又靠谁呢?因此,他们必要作你们的审判官。 20 我若靠 神的能力赶鬼,这就是 神的国临到你们了。 21 一个壮汉拿着武器,看守自己的家园,他的家财就平安无事。 22 但是一个比他更强的人来了,胜过了他,夺去他所倚靠的武器,就把他的家财当作掠物分了。 23 不站在我这一边的就是反对我的;不跟从一起收聚的就是分散的。
污灵去而复返的教训(AC)
24 “一个污灵离开了一个人,走遍干旱之地,寻找栖身的地方,却没有找到,就说:‘我要回到我从前离开了的那房子。’ 25 到了之后,看见里面已经打扫干净,粉饰好了, 26 他就去带了另外七个比自己更恶的污灵来,进去住在那里;那人后来的情况,比以前更坏了。”
约拿的神迹(AD)
27 耶稣正说这些话的时候,群众中有一个女人高声对他说:“怀你胎的和哺养你的有福了!” 28 他说:“是的,却还不如听 神的道而遵守的人有福。” 29 众人聚集的时候,耶稣就说:“这世代是个邪恶的世代。这世代寻求神迹,可是除了约拿的神迹以外,再没有神迹给他们了。 30 约拿怎样成了尼尼微人的神迹,人子也照样成为这个世代的神迹。 31 审判的时候,南方的女王要和这世代的人一同起来,她要定他们的罪,因为她从地极来到,要听所罗门智慧的话。你看,这里有一位是比所罗门更大的。 32 审判的时候,尼尼微人要和这世代的人一同起来,他们要定这个世代的罪,因为尼尼微人听了约拿所传的就悔改了。你看,这里有一位是比约拿更大的。
里面的光(AE)
33 “没有人点了灯,把它放在地窖里,或量器底下,却放在灯台上,叫进来的人看得见光。 34 你的眼睛就是你身体的灯,你的眼睛健全,全身就明亮;如果不健全,全身就黑暗。 35 所以要谨慎,免得你里面的光黑暗了。 36 你若全身明亮,没有一点黑暗,你就完全明亮,好象明亮的灯光照你一样。”
法利赛人和律法师有祸了(AF)
37 耶稣说话的时候,有一个法利赛人请耶稣和他一起吃饭;他就进去坐席。 38 这个法利赛人见耶稣吃饭之前不洗手,觉得奇怪。 39 主对他说:“你们法利赛人把杯盘的外面洗净,但你们里面却充满了抢夺和邪恶。 40 无知的人哪,那造外面的,不也造里面吗? 41 只要把里面的施舍出去,你们的一切就都洁净了。 42 然而你们法利赛人有祸了!因为你们把薄荷、茴香和各样菜蔬献上十分之一,却把公义和爱 神的事疏忽了;这些是你们应当作的,但其他的也不可疏忽。 43 你们法利赛人有祸了!因为你们喜爱会堂里的高位和人在巿中心的问安。 44 你们有祸了!因为你们好象不显露的坟墓,走在上面的人并不知道。”
45 律法师中有一个回答他:“老师,你这样说,把我们也侮辱了!” 46 耶稣说:“你们律法师也有祸了,因为你们把难担的担子叫人担,自己连一个指头也不动。 47 你们有祸了!因为你们修造先知的坟墓,而那些先知正是你们祖先所杀的, 48 这样,你们就成了证人,对你们祖先的作为表示同意;他们杀害先知,你们修造先知的坟墓。 49 所以, 神的智慧说:‘我要差遣先知和使徒到他们那里去,有的他们要杀害,有的他们要迫害, 50-51 为要使创世以来众先知所流的血,从亚伯的血起,直到在祭坛和圣所之间受害的撒迦利亚的血为止,都向这一代追讨。’是的,我告诉你们,都要向这一代追讨。 52 你们律法师有祸了!因为你们拿去知识的钥匙,自己不进去,又阻止要进去的人。” 53 耶稣从那里出来,经学家和法利赛人非常敌视他,质问他很多问题, 54 等机会从他的口中找把柄。
提防法利赛人的酵(AG)
12 那时有成千上万的人聚在一起,甚至彼此践踏。耶稣就先对门徒说:“你们要提防法利赛人的酵,就是虚伪。 2 没有甚么掩盖的事不被揭露,也没有甚么隐藏的事不被人知道。 3 所以,你们在暗处所说的,必在明处被人听见;在内室附耳所谈的,必在房顶上宣扬出来。
应该怕谁(AH)
4 “我的朋友,我告诉你们,那杀身体以后不能再作甚么的,不要怕他们。 5 我要指示你们当怕的是谁:当怕那杀身体以后,有权把人投入地狱里的;我告诉你们,应当怕他。 6 五只麻雀,不是卖两个大钱吗?但在 神面前,一只也不被忘记。 7 甚至你们的头发都一一数过了。不要怕,你们比许多麻雀贵重得多呢。
要在人面前承认主(AI)
8 “我告诉你们,凡在人面前承认我的,人子在 神的使者面前也承认他; 9 在人面前不认我的,我在 神的使者面前也不认他。 10 凡说话得罪人子的,还可以赦免;但亵渎圣灵的,必不得赦免。 11 人把你们拉到会堂、官长和当权者的面前,你们不要思虑怎样申辩或说甚么话。 12 到了时候,圣灵必把当说的话教导你们。”
无知富翁的比喻
13 群众中有一个人对耶稣说:“老师,请吩咐我的兄弟和我分家业。” 14 耶稣说:“你这个人,谁立我作你们的审判官和分家业的人呢?” 15 于是他对众人说:“你们要谨慎,远离一切贪心,因为人的生命并不在于家道丰富。” 16 就对他们讲了一个比喻,说:“有一个富翁的田地丰收。 17 他自己心里说:‘怎么办呢?因为我没有足够的地方收藏出产了!’ 18 又说:‘我要这样办:我要拆掉这些仓房,建造更大的,好在那里收藏我的一切粮食和货物。 19 然后,我要对我的灵魂说:灵魂啊,你拥有许多好东西,足够多年享用,只管安安逸逸地吃喝快乐吧!’ 20 神却对他说:‘无知的人哪,今天晚上,你的灵魂必被取去,你所预备的要归给谁呢?’ 21 凡为自己积财,在 神面前却不富足的,也是这样。”
不要忧虑,积财于天(AJ)
22 耶稣又对门徒说:“所以我告诉你们,不要为生命忧虑吃甚么,也不要为身体忧虑穿甚么。 23 因为生命比饮食重要,身体比衣服重要。 24 你们想想乌鸦:牠们不种也不收,无仓又无库, 神尚且养活牠们;你们比飞鸟贵重得多了。 25 你们中间谁能用忧虑使自己的寿命延长一刻呢? 26 既然连这极小的事都不能作,为甚么还忧虑其他的事呢? 27 你们想想百合花,怎样不劳苦,也不纺织。但我告诉你们,就是所罗门最荣华的时候所穿的,也比不上这花中的一朵呢。 28 小信的人哪,田野的草,今天还在,明天就投进炉里, 神尚且这样给它装饰,何况你们呢? 29 你们不要求吃甚么,喝甚么,也不要忧虑, 30 因为这一切都是世上不信的人所寻求的。你们的父原知道你们需要这一切。 31 你们只管求他的国,这些东西都必加给你们。 32 你们这小群,不要怕,因为你们的父乐意把国赐给你们。 33 当变卖你们所有的施舍给人,为自己制造不朽坏的钱囊,积蓄用不尽的财宝在天上,就是贼不能近、虫不能蛀的地方。 34 因为你们的财宝在哪里,你们的心也在哪里。
忠心的仆人有福了(AK)
35 “你们的腰当束起来,灯也该点着, 36 像等候自己的主人从婚筵回来一样,好叫你们在主人回来敲门时,立刻给他开门。 37 主人来到了,看见仆人警醒,这些仆人就有福了。我实在告诉你们,主人必亲自束腰,招待他们吃饭,进前来侍候他们。 38 主人也许半夜之前,或天亮之前回来,看见他们这样,这些仆人就有福了。 39 你们都知道,家主若晓得窃贼甚么时候来,就不会让他摸进屋里。 40 你们也要准备妥当,因为在想不到的时候,人子就来了。”
41 彼得说:“主啊,你说这比喻,是为我们还是为众人呢?” 42 主说:“谁是那忠心精明的管家,被主人指派管理家里的仆人,按时分粮呢? 43 主人来到的时候,看见他这样作,那仆人就有福了。 44 我实在告诉你们,主人要指派他管理主人的一切财产。 45 如果那仆人心里说:‘我的主人不会那么快回来’,就动手打其他的仆人使女,并且吃喝醉酒; 46 在他想不到的日子、不知道的时间,那仆人的主人要来,严厉地处罚他,使他和不信的人同在一起。 47 那仆人知道主人的意思,却不预备,也不照他的意思行,必多受责打; 48 但那不知道的,虽然作了该受责打的事,也必少受责打。多给谁就向谁多取,多托谁就向谁多要。
将引起纷争(AL)
49 “我来要把火投在地上,如果烧了起来,那是我所愿意的。 50 我有应当受的洗,我是多么迫切地期待这事完成。 51 你们以为我来是要地上有和平吗?不是的,我告诉你们,是要有纷争。 52 从今以后,一家五口将起纷争,三个反对两个,两个反对三个。 53 他们将起纷争:
父亲反对儿子,
儿子反对父亲,
母亲反对女儿,
女儿反对母亲,
婆婆反对媳妇,
媳妇反对婆婆。”
当晓得分辨和判断(AM)
54 耶稣又对众人说:“你们一看见西边有云彩升起来,就说:‘要下大雨’,果然这样; 55 起了南风,就说:‘天要热了’,也果然这样。 56 伪君子啊!你们知道分辨天地的气象,怎么不知道分辨这个时代呢?
57 “你们为甚么自己不能判断甚么是对的呢? 58 你和你的对头去见官长,还在路上的时候,应当尽力向他求和,免得他把你拉到法官面前,法官把你交给差役,差役把你关在监里。 59 我告诉你,除非你还清最后的一个小钱,否则决不能从那里出来。”
若不悔改都要灭亡
13 就在那时候,有几个在那里的人,把加利利人的事告诉耶稣,就是彼拉多把他们的血和他们的祭物搀在一起的事。 2 他回答:“你们以为这些加利利人比其他的加利利人更有罪,才这样受害吗? 3 不是的,我告诉你们,你们若不悔改,都要这样灭亡。 4 你们以为从前西罗亚楼倒塌的时候,压死的那十八个人,比一切在耶路撒冷的居民更有罪吗? 5 不是的,我告诉你们,你们若不悔改,也都要这样灭亡。”
不结果的无花果树
6 耶稣讲了这样一个比喻:“有一个人把一棵无花果树栽在自己的葡萄园里。他来到树那里找果子,却找不到。 7 他对管园的说:‘你看,这三年,我来到这棵无花果树那里找果子,却找不到,把它砍了吧!何必白占地土呢?’ 8 管园的说:‘主人,今年且留着它,等我把周围的泥土挖松,加上肥料; 9 以后结果子就罢,不然,再把它砍了。’”
在安息日治好病人
10 安息日的时候,耶稣在会堂里教导人。 11 有一个女人被邪灵附着,病了十八年,弯腰曲背,完全直不起来。 12 耶稣看见了,就叫她过来,对她说:“妇人,你脱离这疾病了。” 13 耶稣用双手按在她身上,她立刻直起腰来,颂赞 神。 14 会堂的主管,因为耶稣在安息日治病,就气忿忿地对群众说:“有六天是应当作工的,你们可以在这六天里来求医,但在安息日却不可以。” 15 主说:“伪君子啊,你们哪一个人在安息日,不从槽那里解开牛、驴,牵去喝水呢? 16 何况这个女人是亚伯拉罕的后裔,已经被撒但捆绑了十八年,不应当在安息日解开她的捆绑吗?” 17 他说完了这些话,那些与他为敌的人都惭愧;群众却都因他所行一切荣耀的事欢喜。
芥菜种和面酵的比喻(AN)
18 耶稣说:“ 神的国好象甚么呢?我要把它比作甚么呢? 19 它好象一粒芥菜种,人拿去种在自己的园子里。它长大了,成为一棵树,甚至天空的飞鸟也在它的枝头搭窝。” 20 他又说:“我要把 神的国比作甚么呢? 21 它好象面酵,女人拿去放在三斗面里,直到全团发起来。”
当进窄门(AO)
22 耶稣经过各城各乡,往耶路撒冷去,沿途教导人。 23 有一个人问他:“主啊,是不是只有很少的人得救呢?”他对众人说: 24 “你们应当竭力进窄门!我告诉你们,将来许多人要进去,却是不能。 25 等到家主起来关上门,你们站在门外叩门说:‘主啊,给我们开门!’他要回答你们:‘我不知道你们是从哪里来的。’ 26 那时,你们要说:‘我们在你面前吃过喝过,你也在我们街上教导过人。’ 27 他要说:‘我告诉你们,我不晓得你们是从哪里来的;你们所有作恶的人,离开我去吧!’ 28 当你们看见亚伯拉罕、以撒、雅各和众先知都在 神的国里的时候,你们却被赶到外面去,在那里必要哀哭切齿。 29 从东从南,从西从北,将有人来,在 神的国里吃饭。 30 在后的将要在前,在前的将要在后。”
为耶路撒冷叹息(AP)
31 就在那时候,有几个法利赛人来对耶稣说:“你离开这里走吧!因为希律想要杀你。” 32 他说:“你们去告诉那个狐狸,今天明天我赶鬼医病,第三天我的事就完成了。 33 然而,今天明天后天,我必须前行,因为先知不能在耶路撒冷以外丧命。 34 耶路撒冷啊,耶路撒冷,你杀害先知,又用石头把奉派到你那里的人打死。我多次想招聚你的儿女,好象母鸡招聚小鸡到翅膀底下,只是你们不愿意。 35 你看,你们的家必成为荒场留给你们。我告诉你们,从今以后,你们一定见不到我,直等到你们说:‘奉主名来的,是应当称颂的。’”
治好水臌病的人
14 在安息日,耶稣进了一个法利赛人领袖的家里吃饭,众人都在窥探他。 2 正好在他面前有一个患水臌病的人; 3 耶稣对律法师和法利赛人说:“在安息日治病,可以不可以呢?” 4 他们却不出声。耶稣扶着病人,治好他,叫他走了, 5 就对他们说:“你们中间谁的儿子或牛在安息日掉在井里,不立刻把他拉上来呢?” 6 他们不能回答这些话。
耶稣教训筵席的主人(参(AQ)
7 耶稣看见被邀请的客人选择高位,就用比喻对他们说: 8 “你被邀请参加婚筵的时候,不要自己坐在高位上,恐怕有比你更尊贵的客人也被请来; 9 那请你又请他的人过来对你说:‘请你让位给这个人。’那时你就惭愧地退居末位了。 10 你被邀请的时候,要坐在末位上,等请你的人过来对你说:‘朋友,请上座。’那时你在同席的人面前才有光彩。 11 因为凡高抬自己的,必要降卑;自己谦卑的,必要升高。” 12 耶稣又对邀请他的人说:“你设午餐或晚宴,不要请你的朋友、弟兄、亲戚或富裕的邻舍,恐怕他们又回请你,你就得了报答。 13 你摆筵席的时候,总要邀请那贫穷的、残废的、瘸腿的、瞎眼的, 14 那你就有福了。因为他们没有甚么可以报答你,义人复活的时候,你必定得着报答。”
婚筵的比喻(参(AR)
15 一起吃饭的人中有一个,听了这些话,就对耶稣说:“在 神的国里吃饭的人有福了。” 16 耶稣对他说:“有一个人大摆筵席,请了许多客人。 17 到了开席的时候,他打发仆人去对所请的人说:‘请来吧!样样都准备好了。’ 18 众人一致推辞,头一个说:‘我买了一块地,不得不去看一看,请原谅我。’ 19 另一个说:‘我买了五对牛,要去试一试,请原谅我。’ 20 又一个说:‘我刚结了婚,不能去。’ 21 仆人回来把这些事告诉他主人,家主就发怒,对仆人说:‘快到城里大街小巷去,把贫穷的、残废的、瞎眼的、瘸腿的,都领到这里来。’ 22 仆人说:‘主啊,你所吩咐的已经办了,还有空位。’ 23 主人就对仆人说:‘你出去到路边篱畔,勉强人进来,好把我的屋子坐满。 24 我告诉你们,先前请的那些人,一个也不得尝我的筵席。’”
作门徒的代价(参(AS)
25 有许多人与耶稣同行,他转身对他们说: 26 “如果有人到我这里来,爱我不超过爱(“爱我不超过爱”原文作“不恨”)自己的父母、妻子、儿女、兄弟、姊妹,甚至自己的性命,就不能作我的门徒。 27 凡不背着自己的十字架跟随我的,也不能作我的门徒。 28 你们当中有谁要盖一座楼,不先坐下计算费用,能不能盖成呢? 29 恐怕安了地基,而不能完成,所有看见的人都讥笑他, 30 说:‘这个人开了工,却不能完工。’ 31 或者一个王去和别的王打仗,哪有不先坐下想想,能否用一万兵去抵抗那领两万来攻打他的呢? 32 如果不能,就该趁对方还远的时候,派使者去谈判和平的条件。 33 这样,你们中间不论谁,如果不撇下一切所有的,就不能作我的门徒。
34 “盐本来是好的,但如果失了味,怎能使它再咸呢? 35 或用在田里,或放在粪里,都不合适;只好扔在外面。有耳可听的,就应当听。”
路加福音 7-10
Chinese Contemporary Bible (Simplified)
百夫长的信心
7 耶稣向众人讲完道后,进了迦百农。 2 当时,有一个百夫长很赏识的奴仆病了,生命垂危。 3 百夫长听说耶稣的事,就托几位犹太人的长老去请耶稣来医治他的奴仆。 4 他们便来恳求耶稣,说:“这位百夫长值得你帮助, 5 因为他爱我们的同胞,为我们建造会堂。” 6 耶稣就跟他们去了。
快抵达时,那百夫长又请几位朋友去见耶稣,对祂说:“主啊,不用劳驾,我不配让你亲自来我家。 7 我自认不配见你的面,只要你一句话,我的奴仆必定康复。 8 因为我有上司,也有部下。我命令我的部下去,他就去;要他来,他就来。我吩咐奴仆做什么事,他一定照办。”
9 耶稣听了这番话,感到惊奇,转身对跟从祂的百姓说:“我告诉你们,就是在以色列,我也从未见过有这么大信心的人。”
10 派去的几位朋友回到百夫长家里,发现那奴仆已经痊愈了。
寡妇的独子起死回生
11 过了不久[a],耶稣去拿因城,随行的有门徒和一大群人。 12 耶稣快到城门口时,从城里走出一队送殡的人,死者是一个寡妇的独子,有许多城中的人陪着她。 13 耶稣看见那寡妇,怜悯之心油然而生,就对她说:“不要哭!” 14 随即上前按住抬尸架,抬的人停了下来。耶稣说:“年轻人,我吩咐你起来!” 15 那死者就坐了起来,并开口说话。耶稣把他交给他母亲。
16 在场的人惊惧万分,把荣耀归给上帝,说:“我们中间出了一位大先知!”又说:“上帝眷顾了祂的百姓!” 17 有关祂的这消息传遍了犹太和附近地区。
施洗者约翰的疑问
18 约翰从自己的门徒那里获悉这些事后, 19 就叫了两个门徒来,派他们去问主:“将要来的那位就是你吗?还是我们要等别人呢?”
20 他们找到耶稣,便问:“施洗者约翰派我们来请教你,‘将要来的那位就是你吗?还是我们要等别人呢?’”
21 那时,耶稣刚治好了许多患各种疾病和被鬼附身的人,又使许多瞎子得见光明。 22 耶稣便回答说:“你们回去把所见所闻告诉约翰,就是瞎子看见,瘸子走路,麻风病人得洁净,聋子听见,死人复活,穷人听到福音。 23 凡对我没有失去信心的人有福了!”
耶稣称赞施洗者约翰
24 约翰的门徒离去后,耶稣对众人谈论约翰,说:“你们从前去旷野要看什么呢?看随风摇动的芦苇吗? 25 如果不是,你们到底想看什么?是看穿绫罗绸缎的人吗?那些衣着华丽、生活奢侈的人住在王宫里。 26 你们究竟想看什么?看先知吗?是的,我告诉你们,他不只是先知。 27 圣经上说,‘看啊,我要差遣我的使者在你前面为你预备道路。’这里所指的就是约翰。 28 我告诉你们,凡妇人所生的,没有一个比约翰大,但上帝国中最微不足道的也比他大。”
29 众百姓和税吏听了这番话,都承认上帝是公义的,因为他们接受了约翰的洗礼。 30 但那些法利赛人和律法教师没有接受约翰的洗礼,拒绝了上帝为他们所定的旨意。
31 主又说:“我用什么来比拟这个世代的人呢?他们像什么呢? 32 他们就如街头上戏耍的孩童——彼此呼叫,
“‘我们吹娶亲的乐曲,
你们不跳舞;
我们唱送葬的哀歌,
你们不哭泣。’
33 施洗者约翰来了,禁食禁酒,你们就说他被鬼附身了; 34 人子来了,又吃又喝,你们就说,‘看啊,祂是个贪吃好酒之徒,与税吏和罪人为友!’ 35 然而,智慧会在追求智慧的人身上得到验证。”
罪妇的悔改
36 有一个法利赛人请耶稣到他家里吃饭,耶稣应邀赴宴。 37 那城里住着一个女人,生活败坏。她听说耶稣在那法利赛人家里吃饭,就带了一个盛满香膏的玉瓶进去。 38 她站在耶稣背后,挨着祂的脚哭,泪水滴湿了祂的脚,就用自己的头发擦干,又连连亲祂的脚,并抹上香膏。
39 请耶稣的法利赛人看在眼里,心想:“如果这人真的是先知,就该知道摸祂的是谁,是个什么样的女人,她是个罪人。”
40 耶稣对他说:“西门,我有话跟你说。”
西门答道:“老师,请说。”
41 耶稣说:“有一个债主借给一个人五百个银币,又借给另一个人五十个银币。 42 二人都没有能力还债,这位债主就免了他们的债务。你想,哪一位会更爱债主呢?”
43 西门答道:“我相信是那个被免去较多债的人。”
44 耶稣说:“你判断得对!”随后转向那女人,继续对西门说:“你看见这女人了吗?我到你家里来,你没有拿水给我洗脚,这女人却用她的眼泪洗我的脚,还亲自用头发擦干。 45 你没有亲吻我,但我进来以后,这女人却不停地吻我的脚。 46 你没有用油为我抹头,这女人却用香膏抹我的脚。 47 所以我告诉你,她众多的罪都被赦免了,因此她的爱深切;那些获得赦免少的,他们的爱也少。”
48 耶稣对那女人说:“你的罪都被赦免了。”
49 同席的人彼此议论说:“这人是谁?竟然能赦免人的罪!”
50 耶稣又对那女人说:“你的信心救了你,平安地走吧!”
撒种的比喻
8 此后,耶稣到各城镇去传扬上帝国的福音。同行的有十二使徒, 2 还有几个曾被邪灵和疾病缠身、现在已被医治的妇女。其中有抹大拉的玛丽亚,耶稣曾经从她身上赶出七个鬼, 3 还有希律的管家苦撒的妻子约亚拿,此外还有苏撒拿等其他妇女。她们用自己的钱财资助耶稣和门徒。
4 那时,人群络绎不绝地从各地聚集到耶稣面前,耶稣用比喻教导他们,说: 5 “有一个农夫到田里撒种,有些种子落在路旁,被人践踏,又被飞鸟吃掉了; 6 有些落在盖着浅土的石头地上,因水分不足,幼苗刚长出来就枯萎了; 7 有些落在荆棘丛中,荆棘长起来便把幼苗挤住了; 8 有些落在沃土里,发芽生长,结出百倍的果实。”耶稣讲完这番话后,高声说:“有耳可听的,就要留心听。”
9 门徒请耶稣解释这比喻的意思, 10 耶稣便说:“上帝国的奥秘只让你们知道,对其他人,我就用比喻,使他们看却看不见,听却听不明白。 11 这个比喻的意思是这样,种子代表上帝的道, 12 种子落在路旁是指人听了道,随后魔鬼来把道从他们心里夺走了,不让他们相信并得救。 13 种子落在盖着浅土的石头地上是指人听了道,欣然接受了,但是没有根基,只是暂时相信,一遇到试炼就放弃了。 14 种子落在荆棘丛中是指人听了道,后来被生活的忧虑、钱财和享乐缠住了,以致结不出成熟的果实来。 15 种子落在沃土里则是指人听了道,用诚实良善的心坚忍持守,至终结出果实。
点灯的比喻
16 “没有人点了灯,却用器皿把它盖起来或放到床底下,而是放在灯台上,使进来的人能见到光。 17 掩盖的事终会暴露出来,隐藏的秘密终会被人知道。 18 因此,你们要留心听,因为凡有的,还要给他更多;凡没有的,连他自以为已经拥有的也要被夺去。”
耶稣的亲属
19 这时,耶稣的母亲和兄弟来找祂,由于人太多,他们无法靠近耶稣, 20 有人就对祂说:“你的母亲和兄弟在外面想见你。” 21 耶稣却说:“听见上帝的话语并遵行的人就是我的母亲、我的弟兄。”
平静风浪
22 有一天,耶稣对门徒说:“我们到湖的对岸去吧。”于是他们坐船前往对岸。 23 途中耶稣睡着了。不料湖上忽然狂风大作,船灌满了水,非常危险。 24 门徒过来唤醒耶稣,说:“主啊,主啊!我们快淹死了!”
耶稣醒来,就斥责风浪,顿时风平浪静了。
25 耶稣对他们说:“你们的信心在哪里呢?”
门徒又惊又怕,彼此议论说:“祂究竟是谁?一发命令,连风浪都听祂的!”
格拉森赶鬼
26 他们渡过加利利湖,到了格拉森地区。 27 耶稣上岸后,迎面遇见当地一个被鬼附身的人。那人长期赤身露体,不住在房屋里,只住在墓穴中。 28 他一见到耶稣,就扑倒在祂面前,高声喊叫:“至高上帝的儿子耶稣,我和你有什么关系?求求你,不要折磨我!” 29 这是因为耶稣已命令污鬼离开那人。那人多次被污鬼操纵,人们用铁链脚镣把他锁起来看管,他竟把锁链也扯断,被鬼催逼到荒野。
30 耶稣问他:“你叫什么名字?”
他说:“我叫‘群’。”因为有一大群鬼附在那人身上。 31 鬼不断央求耶稣不要叫它们到无底坑去。
32 当时有一大群猪在附近山坡上觅食,污鬼就央求耶稣准许它们进入猪群,耶稣答应了。 33 于是那群鬼便离开那人,进入猪群。那群猪就一路奔下陡坡,冲进湖里淹死了。 34 放猪的人见此情形拔腿就跑,把这事告诉了城里和乡下的人。 35 人们出来看个究竟,到了耶稣那里,发现那曾被鬼附身的人衣着整齐、神智清醒地坐在耶稣脚前,他们都很害怕。 36 目击者把事情的始末告诉了他们。 37 格拉森地区的居民都十分害怕,请求耶稣离开那里,耶稣便乘船回去了。
38 那从前被鬼附身的人恳求跟耶稣同行,耶稣却对他说: 39 “你回家吧,把上帝为你所行的奇事告诉别人。”他就回去,走遍全城,四处传扬耶稣为他所行的奇事。
雅鲁求救
40 耶稣回到对岸,受到等候在那里的百姓的欢迎。 41 一个名叫雅鲁的会堂主管走过来俯伏在耶稣脚前,求耶稣到他家去,因为他有一个大约十二岁的独生女快要死了。
42 耶稣前去雅鲁家的时候,人群拥挤着祂。
患血漏病妇人的信心
43 有一个患了十二年血漏病的妇人耗尽了积蓄,到处求医,但没有人能医治她。 44 妇人挤到耶稣的背后,摸了一下祂衣服的穗边,她的血漏立刻止住了。
45 耶稣问:“谁摸我?”没有人说摸过祂。
彼得说:“老师,众人都在拥挤你。”
46 耶稣却说:“一定有人摸了我,因为我感觉有能力从我身上出去。”
47 那妇人知道无法隐瞒,就战战兢兢地走过来,俯伏在耶稣脚前,把她摸了耶稣的衣裳后顽疾马上痊愈的始末当众说了出来。
48 耶稣对她说:“女儿,你的信心救了你!安心回去吧。”
雅鲁女儿死而复活
49 耶稣还在说话的时候,有人从雅鲁家赶来,对雅鲁说:“你的女儿已经死了,不用麻烦老师了。”
50 耶稣听见,就对雅鲁说:“不要怕,只要信。你的女儿一定会好的!”
51 到了雅鲁家,耶稣只准彼得、雅各、约翰和雅鲁夫妇跟祂进去。 52 屋内的人都在为那女孩哀伤哭泣,耶稣说:“不要哭,她没有死,只是睡着了。” 53 众人就讥笑祂,因为他们明明知道那女孩死了。 54 耶稣拉着那女孩的手,说:“孩子,起来!” 55 她的灵魂就回来了,她立刻站了起来。耶稣吩咐人给她东西吃。 56 她的父母非常惊讶,耶稣却嘱咐他们不要把这事传开。
差遣十二使徒
9 耶稣召集了十二个使徒,赐他们能力和权柄可以医病赶鬼, 2 又差遣他们出去宣讲上帝国的福音、医治病人。 3 耶稣叮嘱他们:“出门的时候,什么也不要带,不要带手杖、背包、干粮、金钱,也不要带两件衣服。 4 有人家接待你们,就住下来,一直住到你们离开。 5 如果有人不欢迎你们,你们在离开那城的时候,就把脚上的尘土跺掉,作为对他们的警告。”
6 使徒领命出发,走遍各个乡村,到处宣扬福音,替人治病。
希律的困惑
7 耶稣的事迹很快便传到希律耳中,令他十分困惑,因为有人说:“约翰死而复活了”, 8 有人说:“以利亚显现了”,还有人说:“古代的某个先知复活了”。 9 希律说:“约翰已经被我斩首,这个行奇事的人到底是谁呢?”于是他想见耶稣。
五饼二鱼的神迹
10 使徒回来后,向耶稣报告了他们所行的事。随后耶稣带着他们悄悄地来到伯赛大城。 11 但百姓发现了耶稣的行踪,随即也赶来了。耶稣接待他们,向他们宣讲天国的福音,医好了有病的人。 12 黄昏将近,十二个使徒过来对耶稣说:“请遣散众人,好让他们到附近的村庄去借宿找吃的,因为这地方很偏僻。”
13 耶稣对他们说:“你们给他们吃的吧。”
使徒们说:“我们只有五个饼和两条鱼,除非我们去买食物才够这么一大群人吃。” 14 当时那里约有五千男人。
耶稣便对使徒说:“让这些人分组坐下,每组大约五十人。” 15 于是使徒安排众人都坐好。 16 耶稣拿起那五个饼、两条鱼,举目望着天祝谢后,掰开递给门徒,让他们分给众人。 17 大家都吃饱了,把剩下的零碎收拾起来,竟装满了十二个篮子。
彼得宣告耶稣是基督
18 有一次,耶稣独自祷告的时候,门徒也在旁边。
耶稣问他们:“人们说我是谁?”
19 他们答道:“有人说你是施洗者约翰,也有人说你是以利亚,或是一位复活的古代先知。”
20 耶稣对他们说:“那么,你们说我是谁?”
彼得回答说:“你是上帝所立的基督。”
21 耶稣郑重地吩咐他们不许泄露祂的身份, 22 又说:“人子必须受许多苦,被长老、祭司长和律法教师弃绝,杀害,但必在第三天复活。”
跟从主的代价
23 耶稣又教导众人说:“如果有人要跟从我,就应当舍己,天天背起他的十字架跟从我。 24 因为想救自己生命的,必失去生命;但为了我而失去生命的,必得到生命。 25 人若赚得全世界,却失去自己或丧掉自己,又有什么益处呢? 26 如果有人以我和我的道为耻,将来人子在自己、天父和圣天使的荣耀中降临时,也必以这人为耻。 27 我实在告诉你们,有些站在这里的人在有生之年就必看见上帝的国。”
登山变象
28 讲完这些话后大约八天,耶稣带着彼得、约翰和雅各一同到山上祷告。 29 耶稣在祷告的时候,容貌改变了,衣裳洁白发光。 30 忽然,摩西和以利亚二人在跟耶稣交谈。 31 二人在荣光中显现,谈论有关耶稣离世的事情,就是祂在耶路撒冷将要成就的事。 32 彼得和两个同伴都困得睡着了,他们醒来后,看见了耶稣的荣光以及站在祂身边的两个人。 33 当摩西和以利亚要离开时,彼得对耶稣说:“老师,我们在这里真好!让我们搭三座帐篷,一座给你,一座给摩西,一座给以利亚。”其实彼得并不知道自己在说什么。 34 他的话还没说完,有一朵云彩飘来,笼罩他们,他们进入云彩中,都很害怕。 35 云彩中有声音说:“这是我的儿子,是我拣选的,你们要听从祂!” 36 声音消逝了,门徒只见耶稣独自在那里。那些日子,他们对这事都绝口不提,没有告诉任何人。
山下赶鬼
37 次日,他们来到山下,有一大群人迎接耶稣。 38 人群中有一个人高声喊叫:“老师,求求你看看我的儿子吧!他是我的独生子, 39 鬼控制着他,他常常突然狂喊乱叫、抽搐、口吐白沫,倍受折磨,无休无止。 40 我曾求过你的门徒把鬼赶出去,但他们都无能为力。”
41 耶稣回答说:“唉!这又不信又败坏的世代啊!我要跟你们在一起容忍你们多久呢?把你的儿子带来吧。”
42 那孩子走过来时,鬼又把他摔倒,使他抽搐,耶稣立刻斥责污鬼,把那孩子治好了,交给他父亲。 43 大家看见了上帝的大能,都很惊奇。
再次预言受难
他们正为耶稣所做的一切惊讶不已时,耶稣对门徒说: 44 “你们要牢记人子所说的话,因为祂将要被交到人的手里。” 45 但门徒不明白这句话的意思,因为还没有向他们显明,他们听不懂,又不敢追问耶稣。
论地位
46 门徒开始议论他们当中谁最伟大。 47 耶稣知道他们的心思,就叫了一个小孩子来,让他站在自己身旁, 48 然后对门徒说:“任何人为了我的缘故接待这样一个小孩子,就是接待我;接待我,就是接待差我来的那位。你们当中最卑微的其实是最伟大的。”
49 约翰说:“老师,我们看见有人奉你的名赶鬼,就阻止他,因为他不是和我们一起跟从你的。” 50 耶稣却对他说:“你不要阻止他,因为不反对你们的,就是支持你们的。”
不肯接待耶稣的村庄
51 耶稣被接回天家的日子快到了,祂决定前往耶路撒冷。 52 祂先派人到撒玛利亚的一个村庄去预备食宿, 53 但撒玛利亚人见他们是上耶路撒冷去的,不肯接待他们。 54 祂的门徒雅各和约翰见状,说:“主啊,你要我们[b]叫天上的火降下来烧死他们吗?” 55 耶稣转过身来责备他们[c]。 56 接着,一行人改道去另一个村子。
跟从主的代价
57 在路上有人对耶稣说:“无论你往哪里去,我都要跟从你。”
58 耶稣对他说:“狐狸有洞,飞鸟有窝,人子却没有安枕之处。”
59 耶稣又对另一个人说:“跟从我!”但是那人说:“主啊,请让我先回去安葬我的父亲。”
60 耶稣说:“让死人去埋葬他们的死人吧,你只管去传扬上帝国的福音。”
61 又有一个人说:“主啊!我愿意跟从你,但请让我先回去向家人告别。”
62 耶稣说:“手扶着犁向后看的人不配进上帝的国。”
差遣门徒
10 事后,主拣选了七十个门徒[d],差遣他们两个两个地出去,先到祂将要去的城镇村庄, 2 并对他们说:“要收割的庄稼很多,工人却很少,因此你们要祈求庄稼的主人派更多的工人去收割祂的庄稼。
3 “你们去吧!我差你们出去,就像把羊羔送入狼群。 4 钱袋、背包和鞋都不要带,在路上也不要与人寒暄。 5 无论到哪一户人家,要先说,‘愿祝福临到这家!’ 6 如果那里有配得祝福的人,祝福自然会临到那人,否则祝福仍归给你们。 7 不要搬来搬去,要固定住在一家,接受那家的款待,因为工人理应得到工钱。
8 “你们无论到哪一个城镇,如果人们接待你们,就吃他们摆上的饮食。 9 要医治那城里的病人,告诉他们,‘上帝的国临近你们了。’ 10 但如果哪一个城镇的人不欢迎你们,你们就到街上宣告, 11 ‘就连你们城里的尘土粘在我们脚上,我们都要跺掉,但是要知道,上帝的国临近了。’ 12 我告诉你们,在审判之日,那城所受的刑罚将比所多玛所受的还重!
Luke 7-10
New International Version
The Faith of the Centurion(A)
7 When Jesus had finished saying all this(B) to the people who were listening, he entered Capernaum. 2 There a centurion’s servant, whom his master valued highly, was sick and about to die. 3 The centurion heard of Jesus and sent some elders of the Jews to him, asking him to come and heal his servant. 4 When they came to Jesus, they pleaded earnestly with him, “This man deserves to have you do this, 5 because he loves our nation and has built our synagogue.” 6 So Jesus went with them.
He was not far from the house when the centurion sent friends to say to him: “Lord, don’t trouble yourself, for I do not deserve to have you come under my roof. 7 That is why I did not even consider myself worthy to come to you. But say the word, and my servant will be healed.(C) 8 For I myself am a man under authority, with soldiers under me. I tell this one, ‘Go,’ and he goes; and that one, ‘Come,’ and he comes. I say to my servant, ‘Do this,’ and he does it.”
9 When Jesus heard this, he was amazed at him, and turning to the crowd following him, he said, “I tell you, I have not found such great faith even in Israel.” 10 Then the men who had been sent returned to the house and found the servant well.
Jesus Raises a Widow’s Son(D)
11 Soon afterward, Jesus went to a town called Nain, and his disciples and a large crowd went along with him. 12 As he approached the town gate, a dead person was being carried out—the only son of his mother, and she was a widow. And a large crowd from the town was with her. 13 When the Lord(E) saw her, his heart went out to her and he said, “Don’t cry.”
14 Then he went up and touched the bier they were carrying him on, and the bearers stood still. He said, “Young man, I say to you, get up!”(F) 15 The dead man sat up and began to talk, and Jesus gave him back to his mother.
16 They were all filled with awe(G) and praised God.(H) “A great prophet(I) has appeared among us,” they said. “God has come to help his people.”(J) 17 This news about Jesus spread throughout Judea and the surrounding country.(K)
Jesus and John the Baptist(L)
18 John’s(M) disciples(N) told him about all these things. Calling two of them, 19 he sent them to the Lord to ask, “Are you the one who is to come, or should we expect someone else?”
20 When the men came to Jesus, they said, “John the Baptist sent us to you to ask, ‘Are you the one who is to come, or should we expect someone else?’”
21 At that very time Jesus cured many who had diseases, sicknesses(O) and evil spirits, and gave sight to many who were blind. 22 So he replied to the messengers, “Go back and report to John what you have seen and heard: The blind receive sight, the lame walk, those who have leprosy[a] are cleansed, the deaf hear, the dead are raised, and the good news is proclaimed to the poor.(P) 23 Blessed is anyone who does not stumble on account of me.”
24 After John’s messengers left, Jesus began to speak to the crowd about John: “What did you go out into the wilderness to see? A reed swayed by the wind? 25 If not, what did you go out to see? A man dressed in fine clothes? No, those who wear expensive clothes and indulge in luxury are in palaces. 26 But what did you go out to see? A prophet?(Q) Yes, I tell you, and more than a prophet. 27 This is the one about whom it is written:
28 I tell you, among those born of women there is no one greater than John; yet the one who is least in the kingdom of God(S) is greater than he.”
29 (All the people, even the tax collectors, when they heard Jesus’ words, acknowledged that God’s way was right, because they had been baptized by John.(T) 30 But the Pharisees and the experts in the law(U) rejected God’s purpose for themselves, because they had not been baptized by John.)
31 Jesus went on to say, “To what, then, can I compare the people of this generation? What are they like? 32 They are like children sitting in the marketplace and calling out to each other:
“‘We played the pipe for you,
and you did not dance;
we sang a dirge,
and you did not cry.’
33 For John the Baptist came neither eating bread nor drinking wine,(V) and you say, ‘He has a demon.’ 34 The Son of Man came eating and drinking, and you say, ‘Here is a glutton and a drunkard, a friend of tax collectors and sinners.’(W) 35 But wisdom is proved right by all her children.”
Jesus Anointed by a Sinful Woman(X)(Y)
36 When one of the Pharisees invited Jesus to have dinner with him, he went to the Pharisee’s house and reclined at the table. 37 A woman in that town who lived a sinful life learned that Jesus was eating at the Pharisee’s house, so she came there with an alabaster jar of perfume. 38 As she stood behind him at his feet weeping, she began to wet his feet with her tears. Then she wiped them with her hair, kissed them and poured perfume on them.
39 When the Pharisee who had invited him saw this, he said to himself, “If this man were a prophet,(Z) he would know who is touching him and what kind of woman she is—that she is a sinner.”
40 Jesus answered him, “Simon, I have something to tell you.”
“Tell me, teacher,” he said.
41 “Two people owed money to a certain moneylender. One owed him five hundred denarii,[c] and the other fifty. 42 Neither of them had the money to pay him back, so he forgave the debts of both. Now which of them will love him more?”
43 Simon replied, “I suppose the one who had the bigger debt forgiven.”
“You have judged correctly,” Jesus said.
44 Then he turned toward the woman and said to Simon, “Do you see this woman? I came into your house. You did not give me any water for my feet,(AA) but she wet my feet with her tears and wiped them with her hair. 45 You did not give me a kiss,(AB) but this woman, from the time I entered, has not stopped kissing my feet. 46 You did not put oil on my head,(AC) but she has poured perfume on my feet. 47 Therefore, I tell you, her many sins have been forgiven—as her great love has shown. But whoever has been forgiven little loves little.”
48 Then Jesus said to her, “Your sins are forgiven.”(AD)
49 The other guests began to say among themselves, “Who is this who even forgives sins?”
50 Jesus said to the woman, “Your faith has saved you;(AE) go in peace.”(AF)
The Parable of the Sower(AG)
8 After this, Jesus traveled about from one town and village to another, proclaiming the good news of the kingdom of God.(AH) The Twelve were with him, 2 and also some women who had been cured of evil spirits and diseases: Mary (called Magdalene)(AI) from whom seven demons had come out; 3 Joanna the wife of Chuza, the manager of Herod’s(AJ) household; Susanna; and many others. These women were helping to support them out of their own means.
4 While a large crowd was gathering and people were coming to Jesus from town after town, he told this parable: 5 “A farmer went out to sow his seed. As he was scattering the seed, some fell along the path; it was trampled on, and the birds ate it up. 6 Some fell on rocky ground, and when it came up, the plants withered because they had no moisture. 7 Other seed fell among thorns, which grew up with it and choked the plants. 8 Still other seed fell on good soil. It came up and yielded a crop, a hundred times more than was sown.”
When he said this, he called out, “Whoever has ears to hear, let them hear.”(AK)
9 His disciples asked him what this parable meant. 10 He said, “The knowledge of the secrets of the kingdom of God has been given to you,(AL) but to others I speak in parables, so that,
11 “This is the meaning of the parable: The seed is the word of God.(AN) 12 Those along the path are the ones who hear, and then the devil comes and takes away the word from their hearts, so that they may not believe and be saved. 13 Those on the rocky ground are the ones who receive the word with joy when they hear it, but they have no root. They believe for a while, but in the time of testing they fall away.(AO) 14 The seed that fell among thorns stands for those who hear, but as they go on their way they are choked by life’s worries, riches(AP) and pleasures, and they do not mature. 15 But the seed on good soil stands for those with a noble and good heart, who hear the word, retain it, and by persevering produce a crop.
A Lamp on a Stand
16 “No one lights a lamp and hides it in a clay jar or puts it under a bed. Instead, they put it on a stand, so that those who come in can see the light.(AQ) 17 For there is nothing hidden that will not be disclosed, and nothing concealed that will not be known or brought out into the open.(AR) 18 Therefore consider carefully how you listen. Whoever has will be given more; whoever does not have, even what they think they have will be taken from them.”(AS)
Jesus’ Mother and Brothers(AT)
19 Now Jesus’ mother and brothers came to see him, but they were not able to get near him because of the crowd. 20 Someone told him, “Your mother and brothers(AU) are standing outside, wanting to see you.”
21 He replied, “My mother and brothers are those who hear God’s word and put it into practice.”(AV)
Jesus Calms the Storm(AW)(AX)
22 One day Jesus said to his disciples, “Let us go over to the other side of the lake.” So they got into a boat and set out. 23 As they sailed, he fell asleep. A squall came down on the lake, so that the boat was being swamped, and they were in great danger.
24 The disciples went and woke him, saying, “Master, Master,(AY) we’re going to drown!”
He got up and rebuked(AZ) the wind and the raging waters; the storm subsided, and all was calm.(BA) 25 “Where is your faith?” he asked his disciples.
In fear and amazement they asked one another, “Who is this? He commands even the winds and the water, and they obey him.”
Jesus Restores a Demon-Possessed Man(BB)(BC)
26 They sailed to the region of the Gerasenes,[e] which is across the lake from Galilee. 27 When Jesus stepped ashore, he was met by a demon-possessed man from the town. For a long time this man had not worn clothes or lived in a house, but had lived in the tombs. 28 When he saw Jesus, he cried out and fell at his feet, shouting at the top of his voice, “What do you want with me,(BD) Jesus, Son of the Most High God?(BE) I beg you, don’t torture me!” 29 For Jesus had commanded the impure spirit to come out of the man. Many times it had seized him, and though he was chained hand and foot and kept under guard, he had broken his chains and had been driven by the demon into solitary places.
30 Jesus asked him, “What is your name?”
“Legion,” he replied, because many demons had gone into him. 31 And they begged Jesus repeatedly not to order them to go into the Abyss.(BF)
32 A large herd of pigs was feeding there on the hillside. The demons begged Jesus to let them go into the pigs, and he gave them permission. 33 When the demons came out of the man, they went into the pigs, and the herd rushed down the steep bank into the lake(BG) and was drowned.
34 When those tending the pigs saw what had happened, they ran off and reported this in the town and countryside, 35 and the people went out to see what had happened. When they came to Jesus, they found the man from whom the demons had gone out, sitting at Jesus’ feet,(BH) dressed and in his right mind; and they were afraid. 36 Those who had seen it told the people how the demon-possessed(BI) man had been cured. 37 Then all the people of the region of the Gerasenes asked Jesus to leave them,(BJ) because they were overcome with fear. So he got into the boat and left.
38 The man from whom the demons had gone out begged to go with him, but Jesus sent him away, saying, 39 “Return home and tell how much God has done for you.” So the man went away and told all over town how much Jesus had done for him.
Jesus Raises a Dead Girl and Heals a Sick Woman(BK)
40 Now when Jesus returned, a crowd welcomed him, for they were all expecting him. 41 Then a man named Jairus, a synagogue leader,(BL) came and fell at Jesus’ feet, pleading with him to come to his house 42 because his only daughter, a girl of about twelve, was dying.
As Jesus was on his way, the crowds almost crushed him. 43 And a woman was there who had been subject to bleeding(BM) for twelve years,[f] but no one could heal her. 44 She came up behind him and touched the edge of his cloak,(BN) and immediately her bleeding stopped.
45 “Who touched me?” Jesus asked.
When they all denied it, Peter said, “Master,(BO) the people are crowding and pressing against you.”
46 But Jesus said, “Someone touched me;(BP) I know that power has gone out from me.”(BQ)
47 Then the woman, seeing that she could not go unnoticed, came trembling and fell at his feet. In the presence of all the people, she told why she had touched him and how she had been instantly healed. 48 Then he said to her, “Daughter, your faith has healed you.(BR) Go in peace.”(BS)
49 While Jesus was still speaking, someone came from the house of Jairus, the synagogue leader.(BT) “Your daughter is dead,” he said. “Don’t bother the teacher anymore.”
50 Hearing this, Jesus said to Jairus, “Don’t be afraid; just believe, and she will be healed.”
51 When he arrived at the house of Jairus, he did not let anyone go in with him except Peter, John and James,(BU) and the child’s father and mother. 52 Meanwhile, all the people were wailing and mourning(BV) for her. “Stop wailing,” Jesus said. “She is not dead but asleep.”(BW)
53 They laughed at him, knowing that she was dead. 54 But he took her by the hand and said, “My child, get up!”(BX) 55 Her spirit returned, and at once she stood up. Then Jesus told them to give her something to eat. 56 Her parents were astonished, but he ordered them not to tell anyone what had happened.(BY)
Jesus Sends Out the Twelve(BZ)(CA)
9 When Jesus had called the Twelve together, he gave them power and authority to drive out all demons(CB) and to cure diseases,(CC) 2 and he sent them out to proclaim the kingdom of God(CD) and to heal the sick. 3 He told them: “Take nothing for the journey—no staff, no bag, no bread, no money, no extra shirt.(CE) 4 Whatever house you enter, stay there until you leave that town. 5 If people do not welcome you, leave their town and shake the dust off your feet as a testimony against them.”(CF) 6 So they set out and went from village to village, proclaiming the good news and healing people everywhere.
7 Now Herod(CG) the tetrarch heard about all that was going on. And he was perplexed because some were saying that John(CH) had been raised from the dead,(CI) 8 others that Elijah had appeared,(CJ) and still others that one of the prophets of long ago had come back to life.(CK) 9 But Herod said, “I beheaded John. Who, then, is this I hear such things about?” And he tried to see him.(CL)
Jesus Feeds the Five Thousand(CM)(CN)
10 When the apostles(CO) returned, they reported to Jesus what they had done. Then he took them with him and they withdrew by themselves to a town called Bethsaida,(CP) 11 but the crowds learned about it and followed him. He welcomed them and spoke to them about the kingdom of God,(CQ) and healed those who needed healing.
12 Late in the afternoon the Twelve came to him and said, “Send the crowd away so they can go to the surrounding villages and countryside and find food and lodging, because we are in a remote place here.”
13 He replied, “You give them something to eat.”
They answered, “We have only five loaves of bread and two fish—unless we go and buy food for all this crowd.” 14 (About five thousand men were there.)
But he said to his disciples, “Have them sit down in groups of about fifty each.” 15 The disciples did so, and everyone sat down. 16 Taking the five loaves and the two fish and looking up to heaven, he gave thanks and broke them.(CR) Then he gave them to the disciples to distribute to the people. 17 They all ate and were satisfied, and the disciples picked up twelve basketfuls of broken pieces that were left over.
Peter Declares That Jesus Is the Messiah(CS)(CT)
18 Once when Jesus was praying(CU) in private and his disciples were with him, he asked them, “Who do the crowds say I am?”
19 They replied, “Some say John the Baptist;(CV) others say Elijah; and still others, that one of the prophets of long ago has come back to life.”(CW)
20 “But what about you?” he asked. “Who do you say I am?”
Peter answered, “God’s Messiah.”(CX)
Jesus Predicts His Death
21 Jesus strictly warned them not to tell this to anyone.(CY) 22 And he said, “The Son of Man(CZ) must suffer many things(DA) and be rejected by the elders, the chief priests and the teachers of the law,(DB) and he must be killed(DC) and on the third day(DD) be raised to life.”(DE)
23 Then he said to them all: “Whoever wants to be my disciple must deny themselves and take up their cross daily and follow me.(DF) 24 For whoever wants to save their life will lose it, but whoever loses their life for me will save it.(DG) 25 What good is it for someone to gain the whole world, and yet lose or forfeit their very self? 26 Whoever is ashamed of me and my words, the Son of Man will be ashamed of them(DH) when he comes in his glory and in the glory of the Father and of the holy angels.(DI)
27 “Truly I tell you, some who are standing here will not taste death before they see the kingdom of God.”
The Transfiguration(DJ)
28 About eight days after Jesus said this, he took Peter, John and James(DK) with him and went up onto a mountain to pray.(DL) 29 As he was praying, the appearance of his face changed, and his clothes became as bright as a flash of lightning. 30 Two men, Moses and Elijah, appeared in glorious splendor, talking with Jesus. 31 They spoke about his departure,[g](DM) which he was about to bring to fulfillment at Jerusalem. 32 Peter and his companions were very sleepy,(DN) but when they became fully awake, they saw his glory and the two men standing with him. 33 As the men were leaving Jesus, Peter said to him, “Master,(DO) it is good for us to be here. Let us put up three shelters—one for you, one for Moses and one for Elijah.” (He did not know what he was saying.)
34 While he was speaking, a cloud appeared and covered them, and they were afraid as they entered the cloud. 35 A voice came from the cloud, saying, “This is my Son, whom I have chosen;(DP) listen to him.”(DQ) 36 When the voice had spoken, they found that Jesus was alone. The disciples kept this to themselves and did not tell anyone at that time what they had seen.(DR)
Jesus Heals a Demon-Possessed Boy(DS)
37 The next day, when they came down from the mountain, a large crowd met him. 38 A man in the crowd called out, “Teacher, I beg you to look at my son, for he is my only child. 39 A spirit seizes him and he suddenly screams; it throws him into convulsions so that he foams at the mouth. It scarcely ever leaves him and is destroying him. 40 I begged your disciples to drive it out, but they could not.”
41 “You unbelieving and perverse generation,”(DT) Jesus replied, “how long shall I stay with you and put up with you? Bring your son here.”
42 Even while the boy was coming, the demon threw him to the ground in a convulsion. But Jesus rebuked the impure spirit, healed the boy and gave him back to his father. 43 And they were all amazed at the greatness of God.
Jesus Predicts His Death a Second Time
While everyone was marveling at all that Jesus did, he said to his disciples, 44 “Listen carefully to what I am about to tell you: The Son of Man is going to be delivered into the hands of men.”(DU) 45 But they did not understand what this meant. It was hidden from them, so that they did not grasp it,(DV) and they were afraid to ask him about it.
46 An argument started among the disciples as to which of them would be the greatest.(DW) 47 Jesus, knowing their thoughts,(DX) took a little child and had him stand beside him. 48 Then he said to them, “Whoever welcomes this little child in my name welcomes me; and whoever welcomes me welcomes the one who sent me.(DY) For it is the one who is least among you all who is the greatest.”(DZ)
49 “Master,”(EA) said John, “we saw someone driving out demons in your name and we tried to stop him, because he is not one of us.”
50 “Do not stop him,” Jesus said, “for whoever is not against you is for you.”(EB)
Samaritan Opposition
51 As the time approached for him to be taken up to heaven,(EC) Jesus resolutely set out for Jerusalem.(ED) 52 And he sent messengers on ahead, who went into a Samaritan(EE) village to get things ready for him; 53 but the people there did not welcome him, because he was heading for Jerusalem. 54 When the disciples James and John(EF) saw this, they asked, “Lord, do you want us to call fire down from heaven to destroy them[h]?”(EG) 55 But Jesus turned and rebuked them. 56 Then he and his disciples went to another village.
The Cost of Following Jesus(EH)
57 As they were walking along the road,(EI) a man said to him, “I will follow you wherever you go.”
58 Jesus replied, “Foxes have dens and birds have nests, but the Son of Man(EJ) has no place to lay his head.”
59 He said to another man, “Follow me.”(EK)
But he replied, “Lord, first let me go and bury my father.”
60 Jesus said to him, “Let the dead bury their own dead, but you go and proclaim the kingdom of God.”(EL)
61 Still another said, “I will follow you, Lord; but first let me go back and say goodbye to my family.”(EM)
62 Jesus replied, “No one who puts a hand to the plow and looks back is fit for service in the kingdom of God.”
Jesus Sends Out the Seventy-Two(EN)(EO)(EP)
10 After this the Lord(EQ) appointed seventy-two[i] others(ER) and sent them two by two(ES) ahead of him to every town and place where he was about to go.(ET) 2 He told them, “The harvest is plentiful, but the workers are few. Ask the Lord of the harvest, therefore, to send out workers into his harvest field.(EU) 3 Go! I am sending you out like lambs among wolves.(EV) 4 Do not take a purse or bag or sandals; and do not greet anyone on the road.
5 “When you enter a house, first say, ‘Peace to this house.’ 6 If someone who promotes peace is there, your peace will rest on them; if not, it will return to you. 7 Stay there, eating and drinking whatever they give you, for the worker deserves his wages.(EW) Do not move around from house to house.
8 “When you enter a town and are welcomed, eat what is offered to you.(EX) 9 Heal the sick who are there and tell them, ‘The kingdom of God(EY) has come near to you.’ 10 But when you enter a town and are not welcomed, go into its streets and say, 11 ‘Even the dust of your town we wipe from our feet as a warning to you.(EZ) Yet be sure of this: The kingdom of God has come near.’(FA) 12 I tell you, it will be more bearable on that day for Sodom(FB) than for that town.(FC)

路加福音 7
Chinese New Version (Simplified)
治好百夫长的仆人(A)
7 耶稣向群众讲完这一切话,就进了迦百农。 2 有百夫长所重用的一个奴仆,病得快要死了。 3 百夫长听见耶稣的事,就打发犹太人中几个长老到他那里,求他去医治他的奴仆。 4 长老们就来见耶稣,恳切地求他说:“你给他行这事,是他配得的, 5 因为他爱我们的人民,给我们建造会堂。” 6 耶稣就和他们同去。离那家不远的时候,百夫长派几个朋友来说:“主啊,不必劳驾,因为你到舍下来,我实在不敢当, 7 我也觉得没有资格去见你;只要你说一句话,我的仆人就必好了。 8 因为我自己是在别人的权下,也有兵在我以下;我对这个说:‘去!’他就去;对另一个说:‘来!’他就来;对我的仆人说:‘作这个!’他就作。” 9 耶稣听见这些话,就很惊奇,转身对跟随的众人说:“我告诉你们,这样的信心,我在以色列中从来没有见过。” 10 奉派的人回到家里,见那奴仆已经好了。
使拿因城寡妇的儿子复活
11 后来耶稣往拿因城去,与他同去的有门徒和一大群人。 12 他走近城门的时候,有人把一个死人抬出来,是个独生子,他母亲又是个寡妇。城里有一大群人陪着她。 13 主看见了,就怜悯她,对她说:“不要哭!” 14 于是上前按着杠子,抬的人就站住。他说:“青年人,我吩咐你起来!” 15 那死人就坐起来,开口说话,耶稣就把他交给他母亲。 16 众人都惊惧,颂赞 神说:“有伟大的先知在我们中间兴起来了!”又说:“ 神眷顾他的子民了!” 17 于是这话传遍了犹太和周围各地。
约翰派门徒去见耶稣(B)
18 约翰的门徒把这一切事告诉约翰。他就叫了两个门徒, 19 差他们往主那里去,说:“你就是那位要来的,还是我们要等别人呢?” 20 两人来到耶稣跟前,说:“施洗的约翰差我们来问你:‘你就是那位要来的,还是我们要等别人呢?’” 21 就在那时候,耶稣治好许多患疾病的、遭灾难的、身上有污鬼附着的,并且施恩给瞎眼的,使他们看见。 22 耶稣回答他们:“你们回去,把看见和听见的都告诉约翰,就是瞎的可以看见,跛的可以走路,患痲风的得到洁净,聋的可以听见,死人复活,穷人有福音听。 23 那不被我绊倒的,就有福了。”
耶稣论约翰(C)
24 约翰差来的人走了以后,耶稣对群众讲起约翰来,说:“你们到旷野去,是要看甚么?被风吹动的芦苇吗? 25 你们出去到底要看甚么?身穿华丽衣服的人吗?这些衣服华丽,生活奢侈的人,是在王宫里的。 26 那么,你们出去要看甚么?先知吗?我告诉你们,是的。他比先知重要得多了。 27 圣经所记:
‘看哪,我差遣我的使者在你面前,
他必在你前头预备你的道路’,
这句话是指着他说的。 28 我告诉你们,妇人所生的,没有一个比约翰更大,然而在 神的国里最小的比他还大。” 29 众人和税吏受过约翰的洗礼,听见这话,就称 神为义。 30 但法利赛人和律法师,未受过约翰的洗礼,就拒绝 神对他们的美意。 31 耶稣又说:“我要把这世代的人比作甚么呢?他们好象甚么呢? 32 他们好象小孩子坐在巿中心,彼此呼叫,说:
‘我们给你们吹笛子,你们却不跳舞;
我们唱哀歌,你们也不啼哭。’
33 因为施洗的约翰来了,不吃饭,不喝酒,你们说他是鬼附的。 34 人子来了,又吃又喝,你们说:‘你看,这人贪食好酒,与税吏和罪人为友。’ 35 但 神的智慧,借着他的儿女就证实是公义的了。”
赦免犯了罪的女人(参(D)
36 有一个法利赛人,请耶稣同他吃饭,他就到法利赛人家去赴席。 37 那城里有一个女人,是个罪人,知道他在法利赛人家里吃饭,就拿着一瓶香膏, 38 站在耶稣背后,挨近他的脚哭,眼泪滴湿他的脚,又用自己的头发擦干,不住地吻他的脚,并且抹上香膏。
