馬 太 福 音 19
Chinese New Testament: Easy-to-Read Version
离婚的教导
19 讲完这些话后，耶稣便离开了加利利，来到约旦河对岸的犹太地区。 2 许多人跟随着他，在那里，他治好了患病的人。
3 一些法利赛人来试探耶稣，他们说∶“男人用任何理由和妻子离婚对吗？”
4 耶稣回答说∶“你肯定在《经》上读过这条，当上帝创世时，‘他创造了男人和女人。’ [a] 5 上帝说∶‘因此，男人要离开父母，与妻子结合，两人变为一体，’ [b] 6 他们不再是两个人，而成为一体了。因为上帝使他们结合在一起，所以人不应该分开他们。”
7 他们又问∶“摩西为什么命令说，男人只要给妻子写下一份休书就可以与她离婚了？”
8 耶稣回答说∶“摩西允许你们与妻子离婚，是因为你们不接受上帝的教导，当初，是不允许离婚的。 9 我告诉你们，除非是他妻子不贞，任何男人与妻子离了婚，又另娶别的女子，他就犯了通奸罪。”
10 门徒们对耶稣说∶“如果这是男人能与妻子离婚唯一的理由，倒不如不结婚。”
11 耶稣说∶“不是所有的人都能接受这条教导的，只有那些被赐与这种天赋的人才能够接受。 12 一些人不能结婚是有不同的原因的。有些人生来就没有生育的能力；有些人是人为的原因不能生育；有些人是因为天国，选择终生独身。这条教导，是给能够接受它的人的教导。
耶稣欢迎儿童
13 此时，人们带着自己的孩子来见耶稣，以便耶稣能把手放在孩子们身上 [c]，为他们祈祷祝福 ，但是耶稣的门徒却责备这些人。 14 耶稣对他们说∶“让孩子们来吧，别阻拦他们来见我，天国属于像儿童一样的人。” 15 耶稣把手按在孩子们身上为他们祈祷后，就离开了那里。
富人拒绝跟随耶稣
16 一个人来问耶稣∶“老师，我该做什么善事才能得到永生？”
17 耶稣说道∶“你为什么问我什么是好呢？只有上帝是好的！如果你要想得到永生，就必须遵守诫命。”
18 那人问∶“遵守什么诫命？”
耶稣说∶“‘不可杀人，不可通奸，不可偷盗，不可作伪证， 19 要孝敬父母。’， [d]还有‘爱人如爱己。’ [e]”
20 年轻人说∶“我遵守了所有这些诫命，我还需要做其它的事吗？”
21 耶稣回答∶“如果你想达到十全十美的地步，那么去卖掉你所有的财产，把钱分给穷人，这样你在天堂就会有财富了。然后你来跟随我。”
22 年轻人听了这话，就心怀悲伤地走了，因为他很富有。
23 耶稣对他的门徒们说∶“我实话告诉你们吧，富人要进上帝的王国真是太难了。 24 是的，我告诉你们，骆驼钻过针眼都要比富人进上帝的王国还容易呢。”
25 门徒们听了这话感到很吃惊，他们问∶“那么谁能得救呢？”
26 耶稣看着他们说∶“对于凡人来说，这是不可能的，但是对于上帝来说，任何事情都是可能的。”
27 彼得说∶“我们撇下了一切，跟随了您，我们将得到什么呢？”
28 耶稣说∶“我实话诉你们，新时代到来的时候，人子将坐在他的荣耀的宝座上。你们这些跟随我的人也将坐在十二个宝座上，你们将审判以色列人 [f]的十二个支派。 29 每个为了跟随我而撇下房屋、离开父母、兄弟、姐妹、孩子或土地的人，都将会获得百倍的报偿，并且得到永生。 30 但是，很多现在居先的人，将来会落在最后；很多现在居后的人，将来却要领先。

New King James Version
Marriage and Divorce(A)
19 Now it came to pass, (B)when Jesus had finished these sayings, that He departed from Galilee and came to the region of Judea beyond the Jordan. 2 (C)And great multitudes followed Him, and He healed them there.
3 The Pharisees also came to Him, testing Him, and saying to Him, “Is it lawful for a man to divorce his wife for just any reason?”
4 And He answered and said to them, “Have you not read that He who [a]made them at the beginning (D)‘made them male and female,’ 5 and said, (E)‘For this reason a man shall leave his father and mother and be joined to his wife, and (F)the two shall become one flesh’? 6 So then, they are no longer two but one flesh. Therefore what God has joined together, let not man separate.”
7 They said to Him, (G)“Why then did Moses command to give a certificate of divorce, and to put her away?”
8 He said to them, “Moses, because of the (H)hardness of your hearts, permitted you to divorce your (I)wives, but from the beginning it was not so. 9 (J)And I say to you, whoever divorces his wife, except for [b]sexual immorality, and marries another, commits adultery; and whoever marries her who is divorced commits adultery.”
10 His disciples said to Him, (K)“If such is the case of the man with his wife, it is better not to marry.”
Jesus Teaches on Celibacy
11 But He said to them, (L)“All cannot accept this saying, but only those to whom it has been given: 12 For there are [c]eunuchs who were born thus from their mother’s womb, and (M)there are eunuchs who were made eunuchs by men, and there are eunuchs who have made themselves eunuchs for the kingdom of heaven’s sake. He who is able to accept it, let him accept it.”
Jesus Blesses Little Children(N)
13 (O)Then little children were brought to Him that He might put His hands on them and pray, but the disciples rebuked them. 14 But Jesus said, “Let the little children come to Me, and do not forbid them; for (P)of such is the kingdom of heaven.” 15 And He laid His hands on them and departed from there.
Jesus Counsels the Rich Young Ruler(Q)
16 (R)Now behold, one came and said to Him, (S)“Good[d] Teacher, what good thing shall I do that I may have eternal life?”
17 So He said to him, [e]“Why do you call Me good? [f]No one is (T)good but One, that is, God. But if you want to enter into life, (U)keep the commandments.”
18 He said to Him, “Which ones?”
Jesus said, (V)“‘You shall not murder,’ ‘You shall not commit adultery,’ ‘You shall not steal,’ ‘You shall not bear false witness,’ 19 (W)‘Honor your father and your mother,’ and, (X)‘You shall love your neighbor as yourself.’ ”
20 The young man said to Him, “All these things I have (Y)kept [g]from my youth. What do I still lack?”
21 Jesus said to him, “If you want to be perfect, (Z)go, sell what you have and give to the poor, and you will have treasure in heaven; and come, follow Me.”
22 But when the young man heard that saying, he went away sorrowful, for he had great possessions.
With God All Things Are Possible(AA)
23 Then Jesus said to His disciples, “Assuredly, I say to you that (AB)it is hard for a rich man to enter the kingdom of heaven. 24 And again I say to you, it is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for a rich man to enter the kingdom of God.”
25 When His disciples heard it, they were greatly astonished, saying, “Who then can be saved?”
26 But Jesus looked at them and said to them, “With men this is impossible, but (AC)with God all things are possible.”
27 Then Peter answered and said to Him, “See, (AD)we have left all and followed You. Therefore what shall we have?”
28 So Jesus said to them, “Assuredly I say to you, that in the regeneration, when the Son of Man sits on the throne of His glory, (AE)you who have followed Me will also sit on twelve thrones, judging the twelve tribes of Israel. 29 (AF)And everyone who has left houses or brothers or sisters or father or mother [h]or wife or children or [i]lands, for My name’s sake, shall receive a hundredfold, and inherit eternal life. 30 (AG)But many who are first will be last, and the last first.

King James Version
19 And it came to pass, that when Jesus had finished these sayings, he departed from Galilee, and came into the coasts of Judaea beyond Jordan;
2 And great multitudes followed him; and he healed them there.
3 The Pharisees also came unto him, tempting him, and saying unto him, Is it lawful for a man to put away his wife for every cause?
4 And he answered and said unto them, Have ye not read, that he which made them at the beginning made them male and female,
5 And said, For this cause shall a man leave father and mother, and shall cleave to his wife: and they twain shall be one flesh?
6 Wherefore they are no more twain, but one flesh. What therefore God hath joined together, let not man put asunder.
7 They say unto him, Why did Moses then command to give a writing of divorcement, and to put her away?
8 He saith unto them, Moses because of the hardness of your hearts suffered you to put away your wives: but from the beginning it was not so.
9 And I say unto you, Whosoever shall put away his wife, except it be for fornication, and shall marry another, committeth adultery: and whoso marrieth her which is put away doth commit adultery.
10 His disciples say unto him, If the case of the man be so with his wife, it is not good to marry.
11 But he said unto them, All men cannot receive this saying, save they to whom it is given.
12 For there are some eunuchs, which were so born from their mother's womb: and there are some eunuchs, which were made eunuchs of men: and there be eunuchs, which have made themselves eunuchs for the kingdom of heaven's sake. He that is able to receive it, let him receive it.
13 Then were there brought unto him little children, that he should put his hands on them, and pray: and the disciples rebuked them.
14 But Jesus said, Suffer little children, and forbid them not, to come unto me: for of such is the kingdom of heaven.
15 And he laid his hands on them, and departed thence.
16 And, behold, one came and said unto him, Good Master, what good thing shall I do, that I may have eternal life?
17 And he said unto him, Why callest thou me good? there is none good but one, that is, God: but if thou wilt enter into life, keep the commandments.
18 He saith unto him, Which? Jesus said, Thou shalt do no murder, Thou shalt not commit adultery, Thou shalt not steal, Thou shalt not bear false witness,
19 Honour thy father and thy mother: and, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself.
20 The young man saith unto him, All these things have I kept from my youth up: what lack I yet?
21 Jesus said unto him, If thou wilt be perfect, go and sell that thou hast, and give to the poor, and thou shalt have treasure in heaven: and come and follow me.
22 But when the young man heard that saying, he went away sorrowful: for he had great possessions.
23 Then said Jesus unto his disciples, Verily I say unto you, That a rich man shall hardly enter into the kingdom of heaven.
24 And again I say unto you, It is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle, than for a rich man to enter into the kingdom of God.
25 When his disciples heard it, they were exceedingly amazed, saying, Who then can be saved?
26 But Jesus beheld them, and said unto them, With men this is impossible; but with God all things are possible.
27 Then answered Peter and said unto him, Behold, we have forsaken all, and followed thee; what shall we have therefore?
28 And Jesus said unto them, Verily I say unto you, That ye which have followed me, in the regeneration when the Son of man shall sit in the throne of his glory, ye also shall sit upon twelve thrones, judging the twelve tribes of Israel.
29 And every one that hath forsaken houses, or brethren, or sisters, or father, or mother, or wife, or children, or lands, for my name's sake, shall receive an hundredfold, and shall inherit everlasting life.
30 But many that are first shall be last; and the last shall be first.
