馬太福音 7
Chinese Standard Bible (Traditional)
不要評斷
7 「不要評斷人,免得你們被評斷。 2 因為,你們用什麼標準來評斷,也會同樣地被評斷;你們用什麼量器[a]來衡量,也會同樣地被衡量。 3 你為什麼看見你弟兄眼裡的木屑,卻不想自己眼裡的梁木呢? 4 又怎麼能對你弟兄說『讓我除掉你眼裡的木屑』呢?看哪,你自己眼裡還有梁木呢! 5 你這偽善的人!先除掉你自己眼裡的梁木,然後你才能看得清楚,好除掉你弟兄眼裡的木屑。 6 不要把神聖之物丟給狗,也不要把你們的珍珠丟在豬面前,免得牠們用腳把這些踐踏了,然後轉身撕咬你們。
不斷祈求
7 「不斷祈求吧,就會給你們;不斷尋找吧,就會找到;不斷敲門吧,就會為你們開門。 8 因為凡祈求的,就得到;尋找的,就找到;敲門的,就為他開門。 9 你們當中有哪個人,兒子要餅,卻給他石頭呢? 10 兒子要魚,卻給他蛇呢? 11 所以,如果你們做為惡人也知道把好的東西給自己的兒女,更何況你們在天上的父要把美好的賜給求他的人呢! 12 因此在任何事上,你們希望別人怎樣對待你們,你們也應當怎樣對待別人。要知道,這就是律法和先知[b]的教導[c]。
要進窄門
13 「你們要從窄門進去;因為那通向滅亡[d]的門是大的,那條路是寬的,從那裡進去的人也多; 14 然而,那通向永生[e]的門是多麼小,路是多麼窄,找到它的人是多麼少。
15 「你們要提防假先知。他們披著羊皮來到你們這裡,裡面卻是凶殘的狼。 16 憑著他們的果子,你們就能認出他們來。難道從荊棘上能收葡萄,從蒺藜中能收無花果嗎? 17 同樣,好樹都結好果子,壞樹就結壞果子; 18 好樹不能結壞果子,壞樹也不能結好果子。 19 所有不結好果子的樹都要被砍下來,被丟進火裡。 20 因此憑著他們的果子,你們就能認出他們來。
21 「不是每一個稱呼我『主啊,主啊』的人,都能進入天國;只有遵行我天父旨意的人,才能進去。 22 在那一天,有許多人會對我說:『主啊,主啊,我們不是奉你的名做先知傳道[f],奉你的名驅趕鬼魔,奉你的名行了很多神蹟嗎?』 23 那時候,我要向他們宣告:『我從來不認識你們。離開我,你們這些作惡[g]的人!』[h]
兩種根基
24 「因此,凡是聽了我這些話而實行的人,就好比一個聰明的人把自己的房子建在磐石上。 25 大雨降下,急流沖來,狂風颳起,撞擊那房子,房子卻沒有倒塌,因為它在磐石上立定根基。 26 可是,凡是聽了我這些話而不實行的人,就好比一個愚拙的人把自己的房子建在沙灘上。 27 大雨降下,急流沖來,狂風颳起,撞擊那房子,房子就倒塌了,並且倒塌得非常厲害。」
28 當耶穌講完了這些話,眾人都對他的教導驚嘆不已, 29 因為耶穌教導他們,就像有權柄的人,不像他們的經文士們。
馬太福音 7
Chinese Contemporary Bible (Traditional)
責人先責己
7 「不要論斷別人,免得你們被論斷。 2 因為你們怎樣論斷別人,也必照樣被論斷;你們用什麼尺度衡量別人,也要用什麼尺度衡量你們。 3 為什麼你只看見你弟兄眼中的小刺,卻看不見自己眼中的大樑呢? 4 既然你自己眼中有大樑,又怎麼能對弟兄說『讓我除去你眼中的小刺』呢? 5 你這偽君子啊!要先除掉自己眼中的大樑,才能看得清楚,好清除弟兄眼中的小刺。
6 「不要把聖物給狗,免得狗轉過頭來咬你們,也不要把珍珠丟在豬前,免得豬踐踏了珍珠。
祈求、尋找、叩門
7 「祈求,就會給你們;尋找,就會尋見;叩門,就會給你們開門。 8 因為凡祈求的,就得到;尋找的,就尋見;叩門的,就給他開門。
9 「你們做父親的,誰會在兒子要餅時給他石頭, 10 要魚時給他毒蛇呢? 11 你們雖然邪惡,尚且知道把好東西給兒女,你們的天父豈不更要把好東西賜給求祂的人嗎?
12 「所以,你們希望人怎樣待你們,就要怎樣待人,這是律法和先知的教導。
辨別與抉擇
13 「你們要進窄門,因為通向滅亡的門大,路寬,進去的人也多; 14 但通向永生的門小,路窄,找到的人也少。
15 「你們要提防假先知,他們披著羊皮到你們當中,骨子裡卻是凶殘的狼。 16 你們可以憑他們結的果子認出他們。荊棘怎能結出葡萄呢?蒺藜怎能長出無花果呢? 17 同樣,好樹結好果子,壞樹結壞果子; 18 好樹結不出壞果子,壞樹也結不出好果子。 19 凡不結好果子的樹,都要被砍下來丟在火裡。 20 因此,你們可以憑他們結的果子認出他們。 21 並不是所有稱呼我『主啊,主啊』的人都能進天國,只有遵行我天父旨意的人才能進去。 22 在審判那天,很多人會對我說,『主啊,主啊,我們不是奉你的名傳道,奉你的名趕鬼,奉你的名行了許多神蹟嗎?』 23 我會清楚地告訴他們,『我從來不認識你們,你們這些作惡的人走開!』
兩種蓋房子的人
24 「所以,凡聽了我的這些話就去行的人,就像聰明人把房子建在磐石上。 25 任由風吹雨打、洪水沖擊,房子仍屹立不倒,因為它建基在磐石上。 26 凡聽了我這些話不去行的,就像愚昧人把房子建在沙土上。 27 遇到風吹雨打、洪水沖擊,房子就倒塌了,而且倒塌得很厲害。」
28 大家聽完耶穌這番教導,都很驚奇, 29 因為祂教導他們時像位有權柄的人,不像他們的律法教師。
Matthew 7
Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition
Judging Others
7 “Judge not, that you be not judged. 2 For with the judgment you pronounce you will be judged, and the measure you give will be the measure you get. 3 Why do you see the speck that is in your brother’s eye, but do not notice the log that is in your own eye? 4 Or how can you say to your brother, ‘Let me take the speck out of your eye,’ when there is the log in your own eye? 5 You hypocrite, first take the log out of your own eye, and then you will see clearly to take the speck out of your brother’s eye.
Profaning the Holy
6 “Do not give dogs what is holy; and do not throw your pearls before swine, lest they trample them under foot and turn to attack you.
Ask, Search, Knock
7 “Ask, and it will be given you; seek, and you will find; knock, and it will be opened to you. 8 For every one who asks receives, and he who seeks finds, and to him who knocks it will be opened. 9 Or what man of you, if his son asks him for bread, will give him a stone? 10 Or if he asks for a fish, will give him a serpent? 11 If you then, who are evil, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will your Father who is in heaven give good things to those who ask him! 12 So whatever you wish that men would do to you, do so to them; for this is the law and the prophets.
The Narrow Gate
13 “Enter by the narrow gate; for the gate is wide and the way is easy,[a] that leads to destruction, and those who enter by it are many. 14 For the gate is narrow and the way is hard, that leads to life, and those who find it are few.
A Tree and Its Fruit
15 “Beware of false prophets, who come to you in sheep’s clothing but inwardly are ravenous wolves. 16 You will know them by their fruits. Are grapes gathered from thorns, or figs from thistles? 17 So, every sound tree bears good fruit, but the bad tree bears evil fruit. 18 A sound tree cannot bear evil fruit, nor can a bad tree bear good fruit. 19 Every tree that does not bear good fruit is cut down and thrown into the fire. 20 Thus you will know them by their fruits.
Concerning Self-Deception
21 “Not every one who says to me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ shall enter the kingdom of heaven, but he who does the will of my Father who is in heaven. 22 On that day many will say to me, ‘Lord, Lord, did we not prophesy in your name, and cast out demons in your name, and do many mighty works in your name?’ 23 And then will I declare to them, ‘I never knew you; depart from me, you evildoers.’
Hearers and Doers
24 “Every one then who hears these words of mine and does them will be like a wise man who built his house upon the rock; 25 and the rain fell, and the floods came, and the winds blew and beat upon that house, but it did not fall, because it had been founded on the rock. 26 And every one who hears these words of mine and does not do them will be like a foolish man who built his house upon the sand; 27 and the rain fell, and the floods came, and the winds blew and beat against that house, and it fell; and great was the fall of it.”
28 And when Jesus finished these sayings, the crowds were astonished at his teaching, 29 for he taught them as one who had authority, and not as their scribes.
