Chinese Standard Bible (Simplified)
光荣进圣城
11 当耶稣和门徒们临近耶路撒冷,到橄榄山附近的伯法其和伯大尼的时候,耶稣派了他的两个门徒, 2 对他们说:“你们到对面的村子里去。你们一进村,就会发现一头驴驹拴在那里,是从来没有人骑过的。你们把它解开牵过来。 3 如果有人问你们为什么这么做,你们就说‘主需要它[a],会很快把它送回这里来的。’”
4 两个门徒去了,果然发现一头驴驹拴在岔路口一个门外,他们就解开驴驹。 5 站在那里的一些人问:“你们解开驴驹做什么呢?” 6 他们就照着耶稣所吩咐的回答,那些人就让他们牵走[b]了。 7 他们牵着驴驹到耶稣那里,把自己的外衣垫在驴驹上,耶稣就骑了上去。
8 许多人把自己的外衣铺在路上,也有人从田野里[c]砍来树枝铺在路上[d]。 9 前行后随的人都呼喊:
11 耶稣进了耶路撒冷,来到圣殿,环视周围的一切。天已经晚了,他就与十二使徒[g]一同离开,往伯大尼去了。
不结果子的无花果树
12 第二天,当他们离开伯大尼的时候,耶稣饿了。 13 他远远地看见一棵长满叶子的无花果树,就上前去,要看看树上是否有什么。他来到树下,除了叶子什么也找不到,因为不是结无花果的季节。 14 于是他对那棵树说:“永远不再有任何人吃到你的果子了!”他的门徒都听见了。
洁净圣殿
15 他们来到耶路撒冷。耶稣进了圣殿,开始把那些在圣殿里做买卖的人赶出去。他推翻了兑换银币之人的桌子和卖鸽子之人的凳子, 16 也不准任何人搬运东西穿过圣殿。
17 耶稣教导他们说:“经上不是记着‘我的殿将被称为万国祷告的殿’[h]吗?而你们却使它成为贼窝了![i]” 18 祭司长们和经文士们听了,就图谋怎样来除灭耶稣。原来他们怕耶稣,因为众人都对他的教导惊叹不已。
19 到了傍晚的时候,耶稣和门徒们就到城外去。
无花果树枯萎
20 清晨,他们路过那棵无花果树的时候,看见它连根都枯萎了。 21 彼得想起来就对耶稣说:“拉比,你看!你所诅咒的无花果树枯萎了!”
22 耶稣对他们说:“你们当对神有信心。 23 我确实地告诉你们:无论谁对这座山说‘愿你被挪开,被丢进海里去!’只要他心里不疑惑,相信自己所说的会成就,事情[j]就将为他成就。 24 所以,我告诉你们:凡是你们所祷告和祈求的,当相信已经得着了[k]。这样,事情就将为你们成就。 25 当你们站着祷告的时候,如果向什么人怀怨,就要饶恕他。这样,你们在天上的父也会饶恕你们的过犯。 26 你们如果不饶恕别人,你们在天上的父也不会饶恕你们的过犯。[l]”
质疑耶稣的权柄
27 他们又来到耶路撒冷。当耶稣在圣殿里行走的时候,祭司长们、经文士们和长老们来到他那里。 28 他们问:“你凭什么权柄做这些事?谁给你这权柄,让你做这些事?”
29 耶稣对他们说:“我要问你们一个问题,你们回答我,我就告诉你们我凭什么权柄做这些事。 30 约翰的洗礼是来自天上,还是来自人间呢?你们回答我!”
31 他们就彼此讨论,说:“如果我们说‘是来自天上’,他就会问‘那么你们为什么不相信他呢?’ 32 可是我们能说‘是来自人间’吗?”原来他们怕民众,因为大家都认为约翰的确是先知。 33 于是他们回答耶稣,说:“我们不知道。”
耶稣就对他们说:“我也不告诉你们我凭什么权柄做这些事。”

騎驢進耶路撒冷
11 耶穌和門徒將近耶路撒冷,快到橄欖山附近的伯法其和伯大尼兩個村莊時,祂派了兩個門徒, 2 對他們說:「你們去前面的村莊,一進村就會看見一頭從來沒有人騎過的驢駒拴在那裡,你們把牠解開牽來。 3 若有人問你們為什麼這樣做,就說,『主要用牠,很快會把牠送回來。』」 4 他們進了村子,果然看見有一頭驢駒拴在街道旁一戶人家的門外,就上前解開牠。 5 旁邊站著的幾個人就問他們:「你們為什麼要解開這頭驢駒?」
6 門徒依照耶穌的吩咐回答,那些人就讓他們牽走了。 7 他們把驢駒牽到耶穌面前,將自己的外衣搭在驢背上,耶穌就騎了上去。 8 很多人把衣服鋪在路上,有人將田間的樹枝砍下來鋪在路上。 9 大家前呼後擁,高聲歡呼:
「和散那[a]!
奉主名來的當受稱頌!
10 那將要來臨的我祖大衛的國度當受稱頌!
和散那歸於至高之處的上帝!」
11 耶穌進了耶路撒冷,來到聖殿,巡視各處。那時天色已晚,耶穌便和十二門徒出城前往伯大尼。
咒詛無花果樹
12 第二天,他們離開伯大尼後,耶穌餓了。 13 祂遠遠看見有一棵枝葉茂盛的無花果樹,就走過去找果子吃。到了樹下,卻什麼也找不到,只有滿樹的葉子,因為當時不是收無花果的季節。 14 祂對那棵樹說:「願無人再吃你的果子!」祂的門徒都聽見了這句話。
潔淨聖殿
15 他們來到耶路撒冷後,耶穌進入聖殿,趕走了裡面做買賣的人,推翻了兌換錢幣之人的桌子和賣鴿子之人的凳子, 16 不准人抬著貨物穿過聖殿。 17 祂教導他們說:「聖經上不是記載『我的殿必稱為萬民禱告的殿』嗎?你們竟把它變成了賊窩。」
18 祭司長和律法教師聽到這番話後,就策劃如何殺害耶穌,只是有些怕祂,因為百姓都對祂的教導感到驚奇。 19 到了傍晚,耶穌和門徒去了城外。
無花果樹的教訓
20 早上,他們又經過那棵無花果樹,看見它連根都枯了。 21 彼得想起昨天發生的事,就對耶穌說:「老師,你看!昨天你咒詛的無花果樹已經枯了。」
22 耶穌說:「要對上帝有信心。 23 我實在告訴你們,不論何人,只要有信心,毫不疑惑,就是對這座山說,『從這裡挪開,投進大海裡!』也必定為他成就。 24 所以我告訴你們,你們禱告時無論求什麼,只要相信已經得到了,就必得到。 25 你們站著禱告的時候,若想起有人得罪了你們,就要饒恕他。這樣,你們天上的父也會饒恕你們的過犯。 26 你們如果不饒恕別人,你們天上的父也不會饒恕你們的過犯。[b]」
質問耶穌的權柄
27 他們再次回到耶路撒冷。耶穌在聖殿裡行走的時候,祭司長、律法教師和長老上前質問祂: 28 「你憑什麼權柄做這些事?誰授權給你了?」
29 耶穌說:「我也要問你們一個問題,你們回答了,我就告訴你們我憑什麼權柄做這些事。 30 約翰的洗禮是從天上來的還是從人來的?請回答我!」
31 他們彼此議論說:「如果我們說『是從天上來的』,祂一定會問,『那你們為什麼不信他?』 32 如果我們說『是從人來的』,又怕觸怒百姓,因為他們都相信約翰真的是先知。」 33 於是,他們回答說:「我們不知道。」耶穌說:「我也不告訴你們我憑什麼權柄做這些事。」
Mark 11
Expanded Bible
Jesus Enters Jerusalem as a King(A)
11 As Jesus and his ·followers [disciples] were coming closer to Jerusalem, they came to the towns of Bethphage and Bethany near the Mount of Olives. From there Jesus sent two of his ·followers [disciples] 2 and said to them, “Go to the town ·you can see there [ahead of you; or opposite you C either Bethphage, Bethany, or another village]. When you enter it, you will ·quickly [immediately] find a ·colt [young donkey] tied, which no one has ever ridden. Untie it and bring it here to me. 3 If anyone asks you why you are doing this, tell him ·its Master [the Lord; or its Owner] needs the colt and ·he will send it at once [or he will return it soon; C “he” could be either Jesus or the colt’s owner].”
4 They went into the town, found a colt tied in the street near the door of a house, and untied it. 5 Some people were standing there and asked, “What are you doing? Why are you untying that colt?” 6 They answered the way Jesus told them to answer, and the people let them take the colt.
7 They brought the colt to Jesus and put their coats on it, and Jesus sat on it [Zech. 9:9]. 8 Many people spread their coats on the road. Others cut [leafy] branches in the fields and spread them on the road. 9 The people were walking ahead of Jesus and behind him, shouting,
“·Praise God! [L Hosanna! C A Hebrew word originally used in praying for help, but by this time a joyful shout of praise to God.]
·God bless [Blessed is] the One who comes in the name of the Lord [Ps. 118:26]!
10 ·God bless [Blessed is] the coming kingdom of our father David!
·Praise to God in heaven [L Hosanna in the highest]!”
11 Jesus entered Jerusalem and went into the Temple. After he had looked [around] at everything, since it was already late, he went out to Bethany with ·the twelve apostles [the Twelve].
12 The next day as Jesus was leaving Bethany, he became hungry. 13 Seeing a fig tree in leaf from far away, he went to see if it had any figs on it. But he found no figs, only leaves, because it was not the right season for figs. 14 So Jesus said to the tree, “May no one ever eat fruit from you again.” And Jesus’ ·followers [disciples] heard him say this.
Jesus Goes to the Temple(B)
15 When Jesus ·returned [came] to Jerusalem, he went into the ·Temple [temple complex; C the large temple area, not the inner building where only the priests could go] and began to ·throw [drive] out those who were buying and selling there. He turned over the tables of ·those who were exchanging different kinds of money [L the moneychangers], and he upset the benches of those who were selling doves [or pigeons; C moneychangers provided particular coins for the temple tax; doves or pigeons were sold for sacrifices; Lev. 5:7]. 16 Jesus refused to allow anyone to carry goods through the Temple courts. 17 Then he taught the people, saying, “It is written in the Scriptures, ‘My ·Temple [L House] will be called a house for prayer for people from all nations’ [Is. 56:7]. But you ·are changing God’s house [L have made it] into a ·‘hideout for robbers’ [T den of thieves’; Jer. 7:11].”
18 The ·leading [T chief] priests and the ·teachers of the law [scribes] heard all this and began trying to find a way to kill Jesus. They were afraid of him, because all the people were amazed at his teaching. 19 That evening, Jesus and his ·followers[a] [disciples] left the city.
The Power of Faith(C)
20 The next morning as Jesus was passing by with his ·followers [disciples], they saw the fig tree ·dry and dead [withered], even to the roots. 21 Peter ·remembered the tree and said to Jesus, “·Teacher [L Rabbi], look! The fig tree you cursed is ·dry and dead [withered]!”
22 Jesus answered, “Have faith in God. 23 I tell you the truth, you can say to this mountain, ‘·Go [Be lifted up], fall into the sea.’ And if you have no doubts in your ·mind [heart] and believe that what you say will happen, ·God will do it for you [it will be done for you]. 24 So I tell you to believe that you have received ·the things [everything] you ask for in prayer, and ·God will give them to you [you will receive them]. 25 When you ·are praying [L stand praying], if you ·are angry with [have anything against] someone, forgive him so that your Father in heaven will also forgive your ·sins [transgressions; trespasses]. |26 But if you don’t forgive other people, then your Father in heaven will not forgive your ·sins [transgressions; trespasses].|”[b]
Leaders Doubt Jesus’ Authority(D)
27 Jesus and his ·followers [disciples] went again to Jerusalem. As Jesus was walking in the Temple [complex; area; courts; see 11:15], the ·leading [T chief] priests, the ·teachers of the law [scribes], and the elders came to him. 28 They said to him, “What authority do you have to do these things? Who gave you this authority?”
29 Jesus answered, “I will ask you one question. If you answer me, I will tell you what authority I have to do these things. 30 Tell me: When John baptized people, was that authority from ·God [L heaven; C a reverential Jewish way of referring to God] or just from ·other people [human beings]?”
31 They argued about Jesus’ question, saying, “If we answer, ‘John’s baptism was from ·God [L heaven],’ Jesus will say, ‘Then why didn’t you believe him?’ 32 But if we say, ‘It was from ·other people [human beings],’ the crowd will be against us.” (These leaders were afraid of the people, because all the people believed that John was a prophet.)
33 So they answered Jesus, “We don’t know.”
Jesus said to them, “Then I won’t tell you what authority I have to do these things.”
