马可福音 2
Chinese New Version (Traditional)
治好癱子(A)
2 過了些日子，耶穌再回到迦百農。一聽說他在屋子裡， 2 許多人就都來聚集，甚至連門前都沒有地方了，耶穌就對他們講道。 3 那時有人把一個癱子帶到耶穌那裡，是由四個人抬來的。 4 因為人擠，不能帶到他面前，就對著耶穌所在的地方，拆去房頂；拆通了，就把癱子連人帶褥子縋了下去。 5 耶穌看見他們的信心，就對癱子說：“孩子，你的罪赦了。” 6 當時有幾個經學家也坐在那裡，心裡議論說： 7 “這個人為甚麼這樣說話？他說僭妄的話了。除了 神一位以外，誰能赦罪呢？” 8 耶穌心裡立刻知道他們這樣議論，就對他們說：“你們心裡為甚麼議論這事？ 9 對癱子說‘你的罪赦了’，或說‘起來，拿著你的褥子走’，哪一樣容易呢？ 10 然而為了要你們知道人子在地上有赦罪的權柄，（他就對癱子說：） 11 我吩咐你，起來，拿起你的褥子，回家去吧。” 12 那人就起來，立刻拿著褥子，當眾出去了。眾人都非常驚奇，頌讚 神，說：“我們從來沒有見過這樣的事。”
呼召利未(B)
13 耶穌又出去，到了加利利海邊；眾人都到他面前來，他就教導他們。 14 他往前走的時候，看見亞勒腓的兒子利未坐在稅關那裡，就對他說：“來跟從我！”他就起來跟從了耶穌。 15 後來耶穌在利未家裡吃飯，有很多稅吏和罪人也來與他和門徒一起吃飯；因為這樣的人很多，並且他們已經跟隨了耶穌。 16 法利賽派的經學家，看見耶穌與罪人和稅吏一起吃飯，就對耶穌的門徒說：“他跟稅吏和罪人一起吃飯嗎？” 17 耶穌聽見了，就對他們說：“健康的人不需要醫生，有病的人才需要；我來不是要召義人，而是要召罪人。”
新舊的比喻(C)
18 約翰的門徒和法利賽人正在禁食，有人來問耶穌說：“為甚麼約翰的門徒和法利賽人的門徒常常禁食，你的門徒卻不禁食呢？” 19 耶穌回答：“新郎跟賓客在一起的時候，賓客怎能禁食呢？只要新郎還在，就不能禁食。 20 但日子到了，新郎要被取去，離開他們，那一天他們就要禁食了。 21 沒有人會把一塊新布縫在舊衣服上，如果這樣，新的布就會把舊衣服扯破，裂開的地方就更大了。 22 也沒有人會把新酒裝在舊皮袋裡，如果這樣，酒就會把皮袋脹破，酒和皮袋都損壞了；新酒總該裝在新皮袋裡。”
安息日的主(D)
23 有一次，在安息日，耶穌從麥田經過，他的門徒一面走路，一面摘麥穗。 24 法利賽人對耶穌說：“你看，他們為甚麼作安息日不可作的事？” 25 耶穌對他們說：“大衛和跟他一起的人在飢餓缺食的時候所作的，你們沒有念過嗎？ 26 他不是在亞比亞他作大祭司的時候，進了 神的殿，吃了除祭司以外誰都不可以吃的陳設餅，而且還給跟他在一起的人吃嗎？” 27 耶穌又告訴他們：“安息日是為人設立的，人並不是為安息日設立的。 28 這樣，人子也是安息日的主。”
Mark 2
Easy-to-Read Version
Jesus Heals a Crippled Man(A)
2 A few days later, Jesus came back to Capernaum. The news spread that he was back home. 2 A large crowd gathered to hear him speak. The house was so full that there was no place to stand, not even outside the door. While Jesus was teaching, 3 some people brought a paralyzed man to see him. He was being carried by four of them. 4 But they could not get the man inside to Jesus because the house was so full of people. So they went to the roof above Jesus and made a hole in it. Then they lowered the mat with the paralyzed man on it. 5 When Jesus saw how much faith they had, he said to the paralyzed man, “Young man, your sins are forgiven.”
6 Some of the teachers of the law were sitting there. They saw what Jesus did, and they said to themselves, 7 “Why does this man say things like that? What an insult to God! No one but God can forgive sins.”
8 Jesus knew immediately what these teachers of the law were thinking. So he said to them, “Why do you have these questions in your minds? 9-10 The Son of Man has power on earth to forgive sins. But how can I prove this to you? Maybe you are thinking it was easy for me to say to the crippled man, ‘Your sins are forgiven.’ There’s no proof it really happened. But what if I say to the man, ‘Stand up. Take your mat and walk’? Then you will be able to see if I really have this power or not.” So Jesus said to the paralyzed man, 11 “I tell you, stand up. Take your mat and go home.”
12 Immediately the paralyzed man stood up. He picked up his mat and walked out of the room. Everyone could see him. They were amazed and praised God. They said, “This is the most amazing thing we have ever seen!”
Levi (Matthew) Follows Jesus(B)
13 Jesus went to the lake again, and many people followed him there. So Jesus taught them. 14 He was walking beside the lake, and he saw a man named Levi, son of Alphaeus. Levi was sitting at his place for collecting taxes. Jesus said to him, “Follow me.” Then Levi stood up and followed Jesus.
15 Later that day, Jesus and his followers ate at Levi’s house. There were also many tax collectors and others with bad reputations eating with them. (There were many of these people who followed Jesus.) 16 When some teachers of the law who were Pharisees saw Jesus eating with such bad people, they asked his followers, “Why does he eat with tax collectors and sinners?”
17 When Jesus heard this, he said to them, “It is the sick people who need a doctor, not those who are healthy. I did not come to invite good people. I came to invite sinners.”
Jesus Is Not Like Other Religious Leaders(C)
18 The followers of John and the Pharisees were fasting. Some people came to Jesus and said, “John’s followers fast, and the followers of the Pharisees fast. But your followers don’t fast. Why?”
19 Jesus answered, “At a wedding the friends of the bridegroom are not sad while he is with them. They cannot fast while the bridegroom is still there. 20 But the time will come when the bridegroom will be taken from them. Then they will fast.
21 “When someone sews a patch over a hole in an old coat, they never use a piece of cloth that is not yet shrunk. If they do, the patch will shrink and pull away from the coat. Then the hole will be worse. 22 Also, no one ever pours new wine into old wineskins. The wine would break them, and the wine would be ruined along with the wineskins. You always put new wine into new wineskins.”
Jesus Is Lord Over the Sabbath Day(D)
23 On the Sabbath day, Jesus and his followers were walking through some grain fields. The followers picked some grain to eat. 24 Some Pharisees said to Jesus, “Why are your followers doing this? It is against the law to pick grain on the Sabbath.”
25 Jesus answered, “You have read what David did when he and the people with him were hungry and needed food. 26 It was during the time of Abiathar the high priest. David went into God’s house and ate the bread that was offered to God. And the Law of Moses says that only priests can eat that bread. David also gave some of the bread to the people with him.”
27 Then Jesus said to the Pharisees, “The Sabbath day was made to help people. People were not made to be ruled by the Sabbath. 28 So the Son of Man is Lord of every day, even the Sabbath.”
