天國裡誰最大(A)

18 那時,門徒前來問耶穌:“天國裡誰是最大的呢?” 耶穌叫了一個小孩子站在他們當中,說: “我實在告訴你們,如果你們不回轉,變成像小孩子一樣,一定不能進天國。 所以,凡謙卑像這小孩子的,他在天國裡是最大的。 凡因我的名接待一個這樣的小孩子的,就是接待我; 但無論誰使一個信我的小弟兄犯罪,倒不如拿一塊大磨石拴在他的頸項上,把他沉在深海裡。

堅拒使人犯罪(B)

“這世界有禍了,因為充滿使人犯罪的事。這些事是免不了的,但那使人犯罪的有禍了! 如果你的一隻手或一隻腳使你犯罪,就把它砍下來丟掉;你一隻手或一隻腳進永生,總比有兩隻手或兩隻腳被投進永火裡好。 如果你的一隻眼睛使你犯罪,就把它挖出來丟掉;你一隻眼睛進永生,總比有兩隻眼睛被投進地獄的火裡好。

迷羊的比喻(C)

10 “你們要小心,不要輕視這些小弟兄中的一個。我告訴你們,他們的使者在天上,常常見到我天父的面。(有些抄本有第11節:“人子來,是要拯救失喪的人。”) 12 你們認為怎樣?有一個人,他有一百隻羊,如果失了一隻,他會不把九十九隻留在山上,去尋找那迷失的嗎? 13 我實在告訴你們,他若找到了,就為這一隻羊歡喜,勝過為那九十九隻沒有迷失的。 14 照樣,你們在天上的父是不願意這些小弟兄中有一個失喪的。

怎樣對待犯了罪的弟兄

15 “如果你的弟兄犯了罪(“犯了罪”有些抄本作“得罪你”),你趁著和他單獨在一起的時候,要去指出他的過失來。如果他肯聽,你就得著你的弟兄。 16 如果他不肯聽,就另外帶一兩個人同去,好使一切話,憑兩三個證人的口,可以確定。 17 如果他再不聽,就告訴教會;如果連教會他也不聽,就把他看作教外人和稅吏吧。

18 “我實在告訴你們,你們在地上捆綁的,在天上也被捆綁;你們在地上釋放的,在天上也被釋放。 19 我又告訴你們,你們當中若有兩個人,在地上同心為甚麼事祈求,我在天上的父必為他們成全。 20 因為無論在哪裡,有兩三個人奉我的名聚會,我就在他們中間。”

不饒恕人的也得不著饒恕

21 那時,彼得前來問耶穌:“主啊,如果我的弟兄得罪我,我要饒恕他多少次?七次嗎?” 22 耶穌對他說:“我告訴你,不是七次,而是七十個七次(“七十個七次”或譯:“七十七次”)。 23 因此,天國好像一個王,要和他的僕人算帳, 24 剛算的時候,有人帶了一個欠下六千萬銀幣的人來。 25 他沒有錢償還,主人就下令叫人把他和他的妻子兒女,以及一切所有的都賣掉,用來償還。 26 那僕人就跪下拜他,說:‘請寬容我,我會把一切還給你的。’ 27 主人動了慈心,把那僕人放了,並且免了他的債。 28 那僕人出來,遇見一個欠了他一百個銀幣的僕人,就抓住他,扼著他的喉嚨,說:‘把你欠我的錢還給我。’ 29 那和他一同作僕人的就跪下求他,說:‘請寬容我,我會還給你的。’ 30 他卻不肯,反而把他帶走,關在監裡,等他把所欠的還清。 31 其他的僕人看見這事,非常難過,就去向主人報告這一切事情。 32 於是主人叫他來,對他說:‘你這個惡僕,你求我,我就免了你欠我的一切。 33 難道你不應該憐憫你的同伴,好像我憐憫你一樣嗎?’ 34 於是主人大怒,把他送去服刑,等他把所欠的一切還清。 35 如果你們各人不從心裡饒恕你的弟兄,我的天父也必這樣待你們。”

天国里谁为大

18 当时,门徒进前来,问耶稣说:“天国里谁是最大的?” 耶稣便叫一个小孩子来,使他站在他们当中, 说:“我实在告诉你们:你们若不回转,变成小孩子的样式,断不得进天国。 所以,凡自己谦卑像这小孩子的,他在天国里就是最大的。 凡为我的名接待一个像这小孩子的,就是接待我。 凡使这信我的一个小子跌倒的,倒不如把大磨石拴在这人的颈项上,沉在深海里。

绊倒人的有祸

“这世界有祸了,因为将人绊倒;绊倒人的事是免不了的,但那绊倒人的有祸了! 倘若你一只手或是一只脚叫你跌倒,就砍下来丢掉!你缺一只手或是一只脚进入永生,强如有两手两脚被丢在永火里。 倘若你一只眼叫你跌倒,就把它剜出来丢掉!你只有一只眼进入永生,强如有两只眼被丢在地狱的火里。 10 你们要小心,不可轻看这小子里的一个。我告诉你们,他们的使者在天上,常见我天父的面。[a]

迷路的羊

12 “一个人若有一百只羊,一只走迷了路,你们的意思如何?他岂不撇下这九十九只,往山里去找那只迷路的羊吗? 13 若是找着了,我实在告诉你们:他为这一只羊欢喜,比为那没有迷路的九十九只欢喜还大呢。 14 你们在天上的父也是这样,不愿意这小子里失丧一个。

15 “倘若你的弟兄得罪你,你就去,趁着只有他和你在一处的时候,指出他的错来。他若听你,你便得了你的弟兄。 16 他若不听,你就另外带一两个人同去,要凭两三个人的口作见证,句句都可定准。 17 若是不听他们,就告诉教会。若是不听教会,就看他像外邦人和税吏一样。 18 我实在告诉你们:凡你们在地上所捆绑的,在天上也要捆绑;凡你们在地上所释放的,在天上也要释放。 19 我又告诉你们:若是你们中间有两个人在地上同心合意地求什么事,我在天上的父必为他们成全。 20 因为无论在哪里,有两三个人奉我的名聚会,那里就有我在他们中间。”

饶恕七十个七次

21 那时,彼得进前来,对耶稣说:“主啊,我弟兄得罪我,我当饶恕他几次呢?到七次可以吗?” 22 耶稣说:“我对你说,不是到七次,乃是到七十个七次。 23 天国好像一个王要和他仆人算账。 24 才算的时候,有人带了一个欠一千万银子的来。 25 因为他没有什么偿还之物,主人吩咐把他和他妻子儿女并一切所有的都卖了偿还。 26 那仆人就俯伏拜他,说:‘主啊,宽容我!将来我都要还清。’ 27 那仆人的主人就动了慈心,把他释放了,并且免了他的债。

不怜悯人的必不蒙怜悯

28 “那仆人出来,遇见他的一个同伴欠他十两银子,便揪着他,掐住他的喉咙,说:‘你把所欠的还我!’ 29 他的同伴就俯伏央求他,说:‘宽容我吧!将来我必还清。’ 30 他不肯,竟去把他下在监里,等他还了所欠的债。 31 众同伴看见他所做的事,就甚忧愁,去把这事都告诉了主人。 32 于是主人叫了他来,对他说:‘你这恶奴才!你央求我,我就把你所欠的都免了。 33 你不应当怜恤你的同伴,像我怜恤你吗?’ 34 主人就大怒,把他交给掌刑的,等他还清了所欠的债。 35 你们各人若不从心里饶恕你的弟兄,我天父也要这样待你们了。”

  1. 马太福音 18:10 有古卷在此有:11人子来,为要拯救失丧的人。

18 At the same time came the disciples unto Jesus, saying, Who is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven?

And Jesus called a little child unto him, and set him in the midst of them,

And said, Verily I say unto you, Except ye be converted, and become as little children, ye shall not enter into the kingdom of heaven.

Whosoever therefore shall humble himself as this little child, the same is greatest in the kingdom of heaven.

And whoso shall receive one such little child in my name receiveth me.

But whoso shall offend one of these little ones which believe in me, it were better for him that a millstone were hanged about his neck, and that he were drowned in the depth of the sea.

Woe unto the world because of offences! for it must needs be that offences come; but woe to that man by whom the offence cometh!

Wherefore if thy hand or thy foot offend thee, cut them off, and cast them from thee: it is better for thee to enter into life halt or maimed, rather than having two hands or two feet to be cast into everlasting fire.

And if thine eye offend thee, pluck it out, and cast it from thee: it is better for thee to enter into life with one eye, rather than having two eyes to be cast into hell fire.

10 Take heed that ye despise not one of these little ones; for I say unto you, That in heaven their angels do always behold the face of my Father which is in heaven.

11 For the Son of man is come to save that which was lost.

12 How think ye? if a man have an hundred sheep, and one of them be gone astray, doth he not leave the ninety and nine, and goeth into the mountains, and seeketh that which is gone astray?

13 And if so be that he find it, verily I say unto you, he rejoiceth more of that sheep, than of the ninety and nine which went not astray.

14 Even so it is not the will of your Father which is in heaven, that one of these little ones should perish.

15 Moreover if thy brother shall trespass against thee, go and tell him his fault between thee and him alone: if he shall hear thee, thou hast gained thy brother.

16 But if he will not hear thee, then take with thee one or two more, that in the mouth of two or three witnesses every word may be established.

17 And if he shall neglect to hear them, tell it unto the church: but if he neglect to hear the church, let him be unto thee as an heathen man and a publican.

18 Verily I say unto you, Whatsoever ye shall bind on earth shall be bound in heaven: and whatsoever ye shall loose on earth shall be loosed in heaven.

19 Again I say unto you, That if two of you shall agree on earth as touching any thing that they shall ask, it shall be done for them of my Father which is in heaven.

20 For where two or three are gathered together in my name, there am I in the midst of them.

21 Then came Peter to him, and said, Lord, how oft shall my brother sin against me, and I forgive him? till seven times?

22 Jesus saith unto him, I say not unto thee, Until seven times: but, Until seventy times seven.

23 Therefore is the kingdom of heaven likened unto a certain king, which would take account of his servants.

24 And when he had begun to reckon, one was brought unto him, which owed him ten thousand talents.

25 But forasmuch as he had not to pay, his lord commanded him to be sold, and his wife, and children, and all that he had, and payment to be made.

26 The servant therefore fell down, and worshipped him, saying, Lord, have patience with me, and I will pay thee all.

27 Then the lord of that servant was moved with compassion, and loosed him, and forgave him the debt.

28 But the same servant went out, and found one of his fellowservants, which owed him an hundred pence: and he laid hands on him, and took him by the throat, saying, Pay me that thou owest.

29 And his fellowservant fell down at his feet, and besought him, saying, Have patience with me, and I will pay thee all.

30 And he would not: but went and cast him into prison, till he should pay the debt.

31 So when his fellowservants saw what was done, they were very sorry, and came and told unto their lord all that was done.

32 Then his lord, after that he had called him, said unto him, O thou wicked servant, I forgave thee all that debt, because thou desiredst me:

33 Shouldest not thou also have had compassion on thy fellowservant, even as I had pity on thee?

34 And his lord was wroth, and delivered him to the tormentors, till he should pay all that was due unto him.

35 So likewise shall my heavenly Father do also unto you, if ye from your hearts forgive not every one his brother their trespasses.
