路加福音 9
Chinese New Version (Traditional)
差遣十二使徒(A)
9 耶穌召齊十二門徒，給他們能力、權柄，制伏一切鬼魔，醫治各樣的疾病， 2 差遣他們去宣講 神的國和醫治病人， 3 對他們說：“不要帶著甚麼上路，不要帶手杖，不要帶口袋，不要帶食物，不要帶銀錢，也不要帶兩件衣服。 4 無論進哪一家，就住在那裡，直到離開。 5 凡不接待你們的，你們離開那城的時候，當把腳上的灰塵跺下去，作為反對他們的表示。” 6 於是他們就出去，走遍各鄉，傳講福音，到處醫治病人。
希律的困惑(B)
7 分封王希律聽見所發生的一切事，猶豫不定，因為有人說：“約翰從死人中復活了。” 8 又有人說：“以利亞顯現了。”還有人說：“古時的一位先知復活了。” 9 希律說：“約翰已經斬頭了，但這是誰，我怎麼會聽到他這些事呢？”就設法要見他。
給五千人吃飽的神蹟(C)
10 使徒們回來，把所作的事報告耶穌。他帶著他們，悄悄地退往伯賽大城去。 11 群眾知道了，也跟了去。他接待他們，向他們講論 神的國，醫好需要醫治的人。 12 天將晚的時候，十二門徒來到他跟前，說：“請解散眾人，好讓他們往周圍的田舍村莊，去找地方住，找東西吃，因為我們這裡是曠野。” 13 他說：“你們給他們吃吧！”他們說：“我們所有的，不過是五個餅兩條魚，除非去為這些人另買食物。” 14 原來男人就約有五千。他對門徒說：“叫他們一組一組地坐下，每組約五十人。” 15 門徒就照他的話，叫眾人坐下。 16 耶穌拿起這五個餅，兩條魚，望著天，祝謝了，擘開遞給門徒，擺在眾人面前。 17 他們都吃飽了，把剩下的零碎拾起來，裝滿了十二個籃子。
彼得承認耶穌是基督(D)
18 有一次耶穌獨自祈禱的時候，只有門徒和他在一起。他問他們：“人說我是誰？” 19 他們回答：“有人說是施洗的約翰，有人說是以利亞，還有人說是古時的一位先知復活了。” 20 他又問他們：“你們說我是誰？”彼得回答：“是 神的基督！”
耶穌預言受難及復活(E)
21 耶穌警告他們，囑咐他們，不要把這事告訴人。 22 又說：“人子必須受許多苦，被長老、祭司長，和經學家棄絕、殺害，第三日復活。”
23 耶穌又對眾人說：“如果有人願意跟從我，就當捨己，天天背起他的十字架來跟從我。 24 凡是想救自己生命的，必喪掉生命；但為我犧牲自己生命的，必救了生命。 25 人若賺得全世界，卻喪失自己，或賠上自己，有甚麼好處呢？ 26 凡是把我和我的道當作可恥的，人子在自己與父並聖天使的榮耀裡降臨的時候，也必把他當作可恥的。 27 我實在告訴你們，站在這裡的，有人在沒有嘗過死味以前必定要看見 神的國。”
在山上改變形象(F)
28 說了這些話以後約有八天，耶穌帶著彼得、約翰和雅各，上山去禱告。 29 正禱告的時候，他的面貌就改變了，衣服潔白發光。 30 忽然有兩個人和他談話，就是摩西和以利亞。 31 他們在榮光裡顯現，談論他去世的事，就是他在耶路撒冷將要完成的。 32 彼得和同伴都在打盹。醒過來之後，就看見他的榮光，並與他站在一起的那兩個人。 33 二人正要離開他的時候，彼得對耶穌說：“主啊，我們在這裡真好！我們可以搭三個帳棚，一個為你，一個為摩西，一個為以利亞。”他根本不知道自己在說甚麼。 34 他說這話的時候，有一片雲彩籠罩他們，他們入了雲彩，門徒就害怕起來。 35 有聲音從雲彩裡出來，說：“這是我的兒子，我所揀選的（“這是我的兒子，我所揀選的”有些抄本作“這是我的愛子”），你們要聽從他！” 36 聲音過了，只見耶穌獨自在那裡。在那些日子，門徒保持緘默，不把所看見的告訴任何人。
治好癲癇病的小孩(G)
37 第二天，他們下了山，有一大群人迎面而來。 38 在人群中有一個人喊叫說：“老師，求你憐憫我的兒子，因為他是我的獨生子。 39 你看，污靈一抓住他，他就忽然喊叫，並且抽瘋，口吐白沫；污靈又折磨糟踐他，不肯放過他。 40 我求過你的門徒，把他趕出去，他們卻辦不到。” 41 耶穌說：“唉！這不信又乖謬的世代啊！我跟你們在一起，忍受你們，要到幾時呢？把你兒子帶到這裡來吧！” 42 那孩子正走過來的時候，污鬼把他摔倒，使他重重地抽瘋。耶穌斥責那污靈，把孩子醫好，交給他父親。 43 眾人都驚奇 神的大能。
第二次預言受難及復活(H)
眾人還在希奇耶穌所作的這一切時，他對門徒說： 44 “你們要把這些話存在心裡：人子將要被交在人的手裡。” 45 門徒不明白這話，因為這話的意思是隱藏的，不讓他們明白，他們也不敢問。
門徒爭論誰最大(I)
46 後來，門徒起了意見，爭論誰是最大的。 47 耶穌看出他們的心意，就領了一個小孩子來，叫他站在自己旁邊， 48 對他們說：“凡因我的名接待這小孩子的，就是接待我；凡接待我的，就是接待那差我來的。誰是你們中間最小的，那人就是最大的。” 49 約翰說：“主，我們看見有一個人奉你的名趕鬼，就禁止他，因為他不和我們一起跟從你。” 50 耶穌說：“不要禁止他，因為不反對你們的，就是贊成你們的。”
撒瑪利亞人不接待主
51 耶穌被接上升的日子快到了，他就決意向耶路撒冷去， 52 並且差遣使者走在前頭；他們去了，進入撒瑪利亞的一個村莊，要為他預備。 53 那裡的人不接待他，因為他面向著耶路撒冷走。 54 他的門徒雅各、約翰看見了，就說：“主啊，你要我們吩咐火從天降下來，燒滅他們嗎？” 55 耶穌就轉過身來，責備他們， 56 然後他們就往別的村莊去了。
要求跟從耶穌(J)
57 他們走路的時候，有一個人對他說：“你無論往哪裡去，我都要跟從你！” 58 耶穌說：“狐狸有洞，天空的飛鳥有窩，人子卻沒有棲身的地方。” 59 他對另一個人說：“你跟從我吧！”那人說：“主啊，請准我先回去安葬我的父親吧。” 60 耶穌說：“讓死人去埋葬他們的死人，你應該去傳揚 神的國。” 61 又有一個人說：“主，我要跟從你，但容我先回去，向家人道別。” 62 耶穌說：“手扶著犁向後看的，不適合進 神的國。”
Luke 9
New Living Translation
Jesus Sends Out the Twelve Disciples
9 One day Jesus called together his twelve disciples[a] and gave them power and authority to cast out all demons and to heal all diseases. 2 Then he sent them out to tell everyone about the Kingdom of God and to heal the sick. 3 “Take nothing for your journey,” he instructed them. “Don’t take a walking stick, a traveler’s bag, food, money,[b] or even a change of clothes. 4 Wherever you go, stay in the same house until you leave town. 5 And if a town refuses to welcome you, shake its dust from your feet as you leave to show that you have abandoned those people to their fate.”
6 So they began their circuit of the villages, preaching the Good News and healing the sick.
Herod’s Confusion
7 When Herod Antipas, the ruler of Galilee,[c] heard about everything Jesus was doing, he was puzzled. Some were saying that John the Baptist had been raised from the dead. 8 Others thought Jesus was Elijah or one of the other prophets risen from the dead.
9 “I beheaded John,” Herod said, “so who is this man about whom I hear such stories?” And he kept trying to see him.
Jesus Feeds Five Thousand
10 When the apostles returned, they told Jesus everything they had done. Then he slipped quietly away with them toward the town of Bethsaida. 11 But the crowds found out where he was going, and they followed him. He welcomed them and taught them about the Kingdom of God, and he healed those who were sick.
12 Late in the afternoon the twelve disciples came to him and said, “Send the crowds away to the nearby villages and farms, so they can find food and lodging for the night. There is nothing to eat here in this remote place.”
13 But Jesus said, “You feed them.”
“But we have only five loaves of bread and two fish,” they answered. “Or are you expecting us to go and buy enough food for this whole crowd?” 14 For there were about 5,000 men there.
Jesus replied, “Tell them to sit down in groups of about fifty each.” 15 So the people all sat down. 16 Jesus took the five loaves and two fish, looked up toward heaven, and blessed them. Then, breaking the loaves into pieces, he kept giving the bread and fish to the disciples so they could distribute it to the people. 17 They all ate as much as they wanted, and afterward, the disciples picked up twelve baskets of leftovers!
Peter’s Declaration about Jesus
18 One day Jesus left the crowds to pray alone. Only his disciples were with him, and he asked them, “Who do people say I am?”
19 “Well,” they replied, “some say John the Baptist, some say Elijah, and others say you are one of the other ancient prophets risen from the dead.”
20 Then he asked them, “But who do you say I am?”
Peter replied, “You are the Messiah[d] sent from God!”
Jesus Predicts His Death
21 Jesus warned his disciples not to tell anyone who he was. 22 “The Son of Man[e] must suffer many terrible things,” he said. “He will be rejected by the elders, the leading priests, and the teachers of religious law. He will be killed, but on the third day he will be raised from the dead.”
23 Then he said to the crowd, “If any of you wants to be my follower, you must give up your own way, take up your cross daily, and follow me. 24 If you try to hang on to your life, you will lose it. But if you give up your life for my sake, you will save it. 25 And what do you benefit if you gain the whole world but are yourself lost or destroyed? 26 If anyone is ashamed of me and my message, the Son of Man will be ashamed of that person when he returns in his glory and in the glory of the Father and the holy angels. 27 I tell you the truth, some standing here right now will not die before they see the Kingdom of God.”
The Transfiguration
28 About eight days later Jesus took Peter, John, and James up on a mountain to pray. 29 And as he was praying, the appearance of his face was transformed, and his clothes became dazzling white. 30 Suddenly, two men, Moses and Elijah, appeared and began talking with Jesus. 31 They were glorious to see. And they were speaking about his exodus from this world, which was about to be fulfilled in Jerusalem.
32 Peter and the others had fallen asleep. When they woke up, they saw Jesus’ glory and the two men standing with him. 33 As Moses and Elijah were starting to leave, Peter, not even knowing what he was saying, blurted out, “Master, it’s wonderful for us to be here! Let’s make three shelters as memorials[f]—one for you, one for Moses, and one for Elijah.” 34 But even as he was saying this, a cloud overshadowed them, and terror gripped them as the cloud covered them.
35 Then a voice from the cloud said, “This is my Son, my Chosen One.[g] Listen to him.” 36 When the voice finished, Jesus was there alone. They didn’t tell anyone at that time what they had seen.
Jesus Heals a Demon-Possessed Boy
37 The next day, after they had come down the mountain, a large crowd met Jesus. 38 A man in the crowd called out to him, “Teacher, I beg you to look at my son, my only child. 39 An evil spirit keeps seizing him, making him scream. It throws him into convulsions so that he foams at the mouth. It batters him and hardly ever leaves him alone. 40 I begged your disciples to cast out the spirit, but they couldn’t do it.”
41 Jesus said, “You faithless and corrupt people! How long must I be with you and put up with you?” Then he said to the man, “Bring your son here.”
42 As the boy came forward, the demon knocked him to the ground and threw him into a violent convulsion. But Jesus rebuked the evil[h] spirit and healed the boy. Then he gave him back to his father. 43 Awe gripped the people as they saw this majestic display of God’s power.
Jesus Again Predicts His Death
While everyone was marveling at everything he was doing, Jesus said to his disciples, 44 “Listen to me and remember what I say. The Son of Man is going to be betrayed into the hands of his enemies.” 45 But they didn’t know what he meant. Its significance was hidden from them, so they couldn’t understand it, and they were afraid to ask him about it.
The Greatest in the Kingdom
46 Then his disciples began arguing about which of them was the greatest. 47 But Jesus knew their thoughts, so he brought a little child to his side. 48 Then he said to them, “Anyone who welcomes a little child like this on my behalf[i] welcomes me, and anyone who welcomes me also welcomes my Father who sent me. Whoever is the least among you is the greatest.”
Using the Name of Jesus
49 John said to Jesus, “Master, we saw someone using your name to cast out demons, but we told him to stop because he isn’t in our group.”
50 But Jesus said, “Don’t stop him! Anyone who is not against you is for you.”
Opposition from Samaritans
51 As the time drew near for him to ascend to heaven, Jesus resolutely set out for Jerusalem. 52 He sent messengers ahead to a Samaritan village to prepare for his arrival. 53 But the people of the village did not welcome Jesus because he was on his way to Jerusalem. 54 When James and John saw this, they said to Jesus, “Lord, should we call down fire from heaven to burn them up[j]?” 55 But Jesus turned and rebuked them.[k] 56 So they went on to another village.
The Cost of Following Jesus
57 As they were walking along, someone said to Jesus, “I will follow you wherever you go.”
58 But Jesus replied, “Foxes have dens to live in, and birds have nests, but the Son of Man has no place even to lay his head.”
59 He said to another person, “Come, follow me.”
The man agreed, but he said, “Lord, first let me return home and bury my father.”
60 But Jesus told him, “Let the spiritually dead bury their own dead![l] Your duty is to go and preach about the Kingdom of God.”
61 Another said, “Yes, Lord, I will follow you, but first let me say good-bye to my family.”
62 But Jesus told him, “Anyone who puts a hand to the plow and then looks back is not fit for the Kingdom of God.”
