馬太福音 8
Chinese Standard Bible (Traditional)
潔淨痲瘋病人
8 耶穌從山上下來，有一大群人跟隨他。 2 這時候，忽然有一個痲瘋病人前來拜他，說：「主啊，如果你願意，你就能潔淨我。」
3 耶穌伸出手來摸他，說：「我願意，你潔淨了吧！」那人的痲瘋病立刻就被潔淨了。 4 耶穌對他說：「你要注意，不可告訴任何人，只要去把自己給祭司看，並且獻上摩西所吩咐的祭物，好對他們做見證。」
百夫長的信心
5 耶穌進了迦百農，有個百夫長前來懇求他， 6 說：「主啊，我的僕人癱瘓了，躺在家裡，受劇烈的折磨。」
7 耶穌對他說：「我去使他痊癒。」
8 百夫長回答說：「主啊，我實在不配請你進我家。其實只要你說一句話，我的僕人就會痊癒的。 9 事實上，我也在人的權下，也有士兵在我之下。我對這個說『去』，他就去；對那個說『來』，他就來；對我的奴僕說『做這事』，他就去做。」
10 耶穌聽了，十分感慨，對跟隨他的人說：「我確實地告訴你們：在以色列我沒有見過有這麼大信心[a]的人。 11 我告訴你們：將有許多人從東從西而來，在天國裡與亞伯拉罕、以撒、雅各一同坐席。 12 但那些『天國的兒女』，卻將被丟在外面的黑暗裡。在那裡將有哀哭和切齒。」 13 於是耶穌對那百夫長說：「回去吧，照著你所信的，給你成全吧！」他的僕人就在那一刻痊癒了。
在迦百農治病
14 耶穌來到彼得家，看見彼得的岳母正發燒躺著。 15 耶穌一摸她的手，燒就退了。於是她就起來服事耶穌。 16 到了傍晚，人們把許多有鬼魔附身的人帶到耶穌那裡。耶穌話語一出就把那些邪靈都趕了出去，並且使所有患病的人痊癒了。 17 這樣，那藉著先知以賽亞所說的話就應驗了：
「他親自代替了我們的軟弱，
擔當了我們的疾病。」[b]
跟隨耶穌
18 耶穌看見一群人[c]圍著他，就吩咐渡到對岸去。 19 有一個經文士前來對他說：「老師，無論你到哪裡去，我都要跟從你。」
20 耶穌對他說：「狐狸有洞，天空的飛鳥有窩，人子卻沒有枕頭的地方。」
21 耶穌的另一個門徒對他說：「主啊，請准許我先去埋葬我的父親。」
22 但是耶穌對他說：「你跟從我，讓死人去埋葬他們的死人吧。」
平靜風浪
23 耶穌上了船，他的門徒們跟著他。 24 這時候，忽然湖[d]上起了大風暴，以致波浪蓋過了船，耶穌卻睡著了。 25 門徒們上前來叫醒他，說：「主啊，救救我們，我們沒命了！」
26 耶穌對他們說：「為什麼膽怯呢？你們這些小信的人哪！」耶穌就起來，斥責風和浪[e]，湖面就變得一片平靜。
27 他們都感到驚奇，說：「這個人究竟是什麼人？連風和浪[f]也聽從他！」
在格拉森驅趕鬼魔
28 耶穌來到對岸格達拉[g]人的地方，兩個有鬼魔附身的人，從墓地迎著他出來。他們非常凶猛，以致沒有人能從那條路經過。 29 忽然，他們喊叫說：「神的兒子[h]啊，我們與你有什麼關係？時候來到之前，你就來這裡折磨我們嗎？」
30 當時，離他們很遠的地方，有一大群豬正在吃食。 31 那些鬼魔就央求耶穌，說：「如果你要把我們趕出去，就叫我們進入這群豬裡面去吧。」
32 耶穌對它們說：「去吧！」它們就出來，進入豬[i]裡面去了。忽然，那整群豬[j]從山崖衝到湖裡，在水裡淹死[k]了。 33 那些放豬的人就逃跑，進城去傳報了這一切事，包括鬼魔附身之人的事。 34 看哪，全城的人都出來看耶穌，見了耶穌以後，就央求他離開他們的地區。
Mattityahu 8
Orthodox Jewish Bible
8 And when Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach came down from the mountain, many multitudes followed him.
2 And an ish metzorah (a leper) there was who approached him and fell down before Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach, saying, Adoneinu, if you choose, you can make me tahor (clean).
3 And, having stretched out his hand, Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach touched him, saying, I am willing. Be made tahor.
4 And Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach says to him, See that you tell no one, but go and show yourself to the kohen and offer the korban about which Moshe gave mitzvah as an edut to them.
5 Now when Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach entered into Kfar-Nachum, a centurion approached him, begging him
6 and saying, Adoneinu, my servant has been bedridden in the house, paralyzed, in terrible tza’ar.
7 And Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach says to him, I am coming. I will bring him refuah (healing).
8 The centurion answered, Adoneinu, I am not worthy that you might come under my roof, but only say the dvar, and my servant will receive the refuah (healing).
9 For I also am a man under marut (authority), having soldiers subordinate to myself, and I say to this one, Go! And he goes, and to another, Come! And he comes, and to my servant, Do this! And he does it.
10 And having heard this, Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach was amazed and said to those who followed him, Omein, I say to you, in no one in Yisroel have I found such great emunah.
11 And I say to you, that many from the mizrach (east) and the maarav (west) will come and will sit bimesibba (reclining at tish) with Avraham and Yitzchak and Yaakov in the Malchut HaShomayim.
12 But the Bnei HaMalchut will be thrown out into the outer choshech (darkness), where there will be weeping and grinding of teeth.
13 And Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach said to the centurion, Go! According to your bitachon (trust), your emunah (faith), let it be for you. And his servant was given refuah (healing) punkt (exactly) at that hour.
14 When Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach entered the bais (house) of Kefa, he saw the chamot (mother-in-law, shviger) bedridden and fever stricken.
15 Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach touched her hand, and the fever left her. She then began functioning as his mesharetet (servant, lady minister), serving Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach.
16 And when erev (evening) had come, they brought to Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach many possessed by shedim (evil spirits, demons), and he cast out the shedim with a dvar, and all the cholim (sick persons) he healed.
17 Thus was fulfilled what was spoken by Yeshayah the Navi, saying, ACHEN CHOLAYEINU HU NASA UMACHOVEINU SVALAM (Surely he took up our sicknesses and he carried away [T.N. like the Yom Kippur sa’ir l’Azazel scapegoat kapporah] our sorrows, YESHAYAH 53:4).
18 And when he saw the crowd around him, he gave orders to go over to the other side.
19 A sofer (scribe, Torah teacher) approached Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach and said, Rebbe, I will follow you wherever you go.
20 And Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach says to him, Foxes have holes and the OPH HASHOMAYIM (birds of heaven, IYOV 35:11) have nests, but the Ben HaAdam [Moshiach, DANIEL 7:13-14] does not have a place where he may lay his head.
21 And another of Moshiach’s talmidim said to him, Adoneinu, allow me first to go and bury my father.
22 But Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach says to him, Follow me, and permit the mesim (spiritually dead ones without hitkhadshut, spiritually unregenerate ones) to bury their own mesim (deceased ones, niftarim).
23 And when he embarked into the sirah, Moshiach’s talmidim followed him.
24 And hinei! a great storm came up on the lake, so that the sirah (boat) was about to be covered by the waves. But Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach was sleeping.
25 And Moshiach’s talmidim approached and woke him, saying, Adoneinu, hoshieinu! We are perishing!
26 And Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach says to them, Why are you fearful, you ones of little emunah? Then, arising, Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach rebuked the winds and the sea. And there was a great calm.
27 And the men were astonished, saying, What sort of man is this!? That even the winds and the sea obey him!
28 And when Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach came to the other side of the lake, in the land of the people of Gadara, he was met by two men possessed by shedim (demons); these men were coming out of the kevarim (tombs) of the burial caves and were so dangerous no one could pass by on that road.
29 And they screamed, saying, Mah lanu valach, Ben HaElohim? (What to us and to you, Ben HaElohim? T.N. i.e., What business do you have with us, Ben HaElohim) Have you come here to torture us before the time [of the Yom HaDin, the Day of Judgment]?
30 Now there was feeding far away from them a large herd of chazirim (swine).
31 And the shedim begged him, saying, If you cast us out, send us into the herd of chazirim.
32 And Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach said to them, Go away! So the shedim, coming out, went away into the chazirim. And, hinei, all the herd of chazirim rushed down the bank into the lake, and they perished in the water.
33 And the herdsmen of the chazirim fled, and, having gone away into the town, they told the whole story of what had happened to the men possessed by shedim.
34 And hinei! The whole town came out to meet Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach. And seeing him, they begged him to depart from their area.
