路加福音 19
Chinese New Version (Traditional)
稅吏長撒該
19 耶穌進了耶利哥,正經過的時候, 2 有一個人名叫撒該,是稅吏長,又很富有。 3 他想看看耶穌是怎麼樣的,因為人多,他又身材矮小,就看不見。 4 於是他跑到前頭,爬上一棵桑樹,要看看耶穌,因為耶穌就要從那裡經過。 5 耶穌到了那裡,往上一看,對他說:“撒該,快下來,今天我要住在你家裡。” 6 他就趕快下來,歡歡喜喜地接待耶穌。 7 眾人看見就紛紛議論說:“他竟到罪人家裡去住宿!” 8 撒該站著對主說:“主啊,請看,我要把家財的一半分給窮人,我若敲詐了誰,就還他四倍。” 9 耶穌說:“今天救恩到了這家,他也是亞伯拉罕的子孫。 10 因為人子來,是要尋找拯救失喪的人。”
十個僕人的比喻(參(A)
11 眾人聽這些話的時候,因為耶穌已經接近耶路撒冷,又因他們以為 神的國快要出現,他就講了一個比喻, 12 說:“有一個貴族往遠方去要接受王位,然後回來。 13 他叫了自己的十個僕人來,給他們一千銀幣,說:‘你們拿去作生意,等到我回來。’ 14 他本國的人卻恨他,就派使者跟著去說:‘我們不願意這個人作王統治我們。’ 15 他得了王位回來,就吩咐把那些領了錢的僕人召來,要知道他們作生意賺了多少。 16 第一個走過來說:‘主啊,你的一百銀幣,已經賺了一千。’ 17 主人說:‘好,良善的僕人,你既然在最小的事上忠心,可以有權管理十座城。’ 18 第二個來說:‘主啊,你的一百銀幣,已經賺了五百。’ 19 主人說:‘你可以管理五座城。’ 20 另一個來說:‘主啊,你看,你的一百銀幣,我一直保存在手巾裡, 21 因為我怕你,你一向是嚴厲的人,沒有存的要提取,沒有種的要收割。’ 22 主人說:‘可惡的僕人!我要憑你的口定你的罪。你知道我是嚴厲的人,沒有存的要提取,沒有種的要收割嗎? 23 那你為甚麼不把我的錢存入銀行,等我回來的時候,把它連本帶利取回來呢?’ 24 他就對侍衛說:‘奪過他的一百銀幣,給那有一千的。’ 25 他們說:‘主啊,他已經有一千銀幣了。’ 26 主人說:‘我告訴你們,凡是有的,還要給他;沒有的,就算他有甚麼也要拿去。 27 至於我那些仇敵,就是不願意我作王統治他們的,把他們拉到這裡來,在我面前殺掉!’”
騎驢進耶路撒冷(B)
28 耶穌講完這些話,就往前走,上耶路撒冷去。 29 將到伯法其和伯大尼,就在橄欖山那裡,他差派兩個門徒, 30 說:“你們往對面的村子裡去,走進去的時候,就會看見一頭從來沒有人騎過的小驢,拴在那裡,把牠解開牽來。 31 如果有人問為甚麼解開牠,你們要這樣說:‘主需要牠。’” 32 被差的人去了,發現和主所說的一樣。 33 他們解開小驢的時候,主人問他們:“你們為甚麼解開牠?” 34 他們說:“主需要牠。” 35 他們把小驢牽到耶穌那裡,把自己的衣服搭在上面,扶著耶穌上去。 36 耶穌前行的時候,眾人把自己的衣服鋪在路上。
37 他走近耶路撒冷,快要下橄欖山的時候,全體門徒因為所看見的一切神蹟,就歡樂起來,大聲讚美 神, 38 說:
“奉主名來的王,
是應當稱頌的!
在天上有和平,
在至高之處有榮耀!”
39 群眾中有幾個法利賽人對他說:“先生,責備你的門徒吧!” 40 耶穌說:“我告訴你們,他們若不出聲,石頭都要呼叫了。”
為耶路撒冷哀哭
41 耶穌走近耶路撒冷的時候,看見了城,就為城哀哭, 42 說:“巴不得你在這日子,知道關於你平安的事,但現在這事在你眼前是隱藏的。 43 日子將到,你的仇敵必築壘攻擊你,周圍環繞你,四面困住你, 44 要摧毀你和你裡面的兒女,沒有一塊石頭留在另一塊石頭上面,因為你不知道那眷顧你的時期。”
潔淨聖殿(C)
45 耶穌進了聖殿,就趕走作買賣的人, 46 對他們說:“經上記著:
‘我的殿是禱告的殿’,
你們竟把它弄成賊窩了。”
47 他天天在聖殿裡教導人,祭司長、經學家和民間的首領,都想殺害他; 48 但他們不知道要怎樣下手,因為眾人都圍著他,聽他的教訓。
Luke 19
International Standard Version
Jesus and Zacchaeus
19 As Jesus[a] entered Jericho and was passing through it, 2 a man named Zacchaeus appeared. He was a leading tax collector, and a rich one at that! 3 He was trying to see who Jesus was, but he couldn’t do so due to the crowd, since he was a short man. 4 So he ran ahead and climbed a sycamore tree to see Jesus,[b] who was going to pass that way.
5 When Jesus came to the tree,[c] he looked up and said, “Zacchaeus, hurry and come down! I must stay at your house today.” 6 Zacchaeus[d] came down quickly and was glad to welcome him into his home.[e]
7 But all the people who saw this began to complain: “Jesus[f] is going to be the guest of a notorious[g] sinner!”
8 Later, Zacchaeus stood up and announced to the Lord, “Look! I’m giving half of my possessions to the destitute, and if I have accused anyone falsely, I’m repaying four times as much as I owe.”[h]
9 Then Jesus told him, “Today salvation has come to this home, because this man[i] is also a descendant of Abraham, 10 and the Son of Man has come to seek and to save the lost.”
The Parable about the Coins
11 As they were listening to this, Jesus[j] went on to tell a parable because he was near Jerusalem and because the people[k] thought that the kingdom of God would appear immediately. 12 So he said, “A prince went to a distant country to be appointed king and then to return. 13 He called ten of his servants and gave them ten coins.[l] He told them, ‘Invest this money until I come back.’ 14 But the citizens of his country hated him and sent a delegation to follow him and to announce, ‘We don’t want this man to rule over us!’
15 “After he was appointed king, the prince[m] came back. He ordered the servants to whom he had given the money to be called so he could find out what they had earned by investing. 16 The first servant[n] came and said, ‘Sir, your coin has earned ten more coins.’ 17 The king[o] told him, ‘Well done, good servant! Because you have been trustworthy in a very small thing, take charge of ten cities.’
18 “The second servant[p] came and said, ‘Your coin, sir, has earned five coins.’ 19 The king[q] told him, ‘You take charge of five cities.’
20 “Then the other servant[r] came and said, ‘Sir, look! Here’s your coin. I’ve kept it in a cloth for safekeeping 21 because I was afraid of you. You are a hard man. You withdraw what you didn’t deposit and harvest what you didn’t plant.’ 22 The king[s] told him, ‘I will judge you by your own words, you evil servant! You knew, did you, that I was a hard man, and that I withdraw what I didn’t deposit and harvest what I didn’t plant? 23 Then why didn’t you put my money in the bank? When I returned, I could have collected it with interest.’
24 “So the king[t] told those standing nearby, ‘Take the coin away from him and give it to the man who has the ten coins.’ 25 They answered him, ‘Sir, he already[u] has ten coins!’ 26 ‘I tell you, to everyone who has something, more will be given, but from the person who has nothing, even what he has will be taken away. 27 But as for these enemies of mine who didn’t want me to be their king—bring them here and slaughter them in my presence!’”
The King Enters Jerusalem(A)
28 After Jesus[v] had said this, he traveled on and went up to Jerusalem. 29 As he approached Bethphage and Bethany at the Mount of Olives, he sent two of his disciples on ahead. 30 “Go into the village ahead of you,” he said. “As you enter, you will find a colt tied up that no one has ever ridden.[w] Untie it and bring it along. 31 If anyone asks you why you are untying it, say this: ‘The Lord needs it.’”
32 So those who were sent went off and found it as Jesus[x] had told them. 33 While they were untying the colt, its owners asked them, “Why are you untying the colt?”
34 The disciples[y] answered, “The Lord needs it.” 35 Then they brought the colt to Jesus and put their coats on it, and Jesus sat upon it.
36 As he was riding along, people[z] kept spreading their coats on the road. 37 He was now approaching the descent from the Mount of Olives. The whole crowd of disciples began to rejoice and to praise God with a loud voice because of all the miracles they had seen. 38 They said,
“How blessed is the king
who comes in the name of the Lord![aa]
Peace in heaven,
and glory in the highest heaven!”
39 Some of the Pharisees in the crowd told Jesus,[ab] “Teacher, tell your disciples to be quiet.”
40 He replied, “I tell you, if they were quiet, the stones would cry out!”
41 When he came closer and saw the city, he began to grieve over it: 42 “If you[ac] had only known today what could have brought you peace! But now it is hidden from your sight, 43 because the days will come[ad] when your enemies will build walls around you, surround you, and close you in on every side. 44 They will level you to the ground—you and those who live[ae] within your city limits.[af] They will not leave one stone on another within your walls,[ag] because you didn’t recognize the time when you were visited.”[ah]
Confrontation in the Temple over Money(B)
45 Then Jesus[ai] went into the Temple and began to throw out those who were selling things. 46 He told them, “It is written, ‘My house is to be called a house of prayer,’[aj] but you have turned it into a hideout[ak] for bandits!”
47 Then he began teaching in the Temple every day. The high priests, the scribes, and the leaders of the people kept looking for a way to kill him, 48 but they couldn’t find a way to do it, because all the people were eager to hear him.
