马太福音 26
Chinese Standard Bible (Simplified)
阴谋杀害耶稣
26 当耶稣讲完了这一切话，就对自己的门徒们说： 2 “你们知道，过两天就是逾越节，人子要被交出去钉上十字架。”
3 那时，祭司长们[a]和民间的长老们聚集在叫该亚法的大祭司的宅院里， 4 商议要用诡计拘捕耶稣，把他杀掉。 5 不过他们说：“不可在节日期间，免得民中发生骚乱。”
在伯大尼被膏抹
6 耶稣在伯大尼，在麻风病人西门家里的时候， 7 有一个女人拿着一个盛了极其贵重香液的玉瓶上前来，在耶稣坐席的时候，把香液浇在他的头上。 8 门徒们看见了就很不满，说：“为什么这样浪费？ 9 这香液[b]本来可以卖很多钱，分给穷人。”
10 耶稣知道了，就对他们说：“你们为什么为难这妇人呢？她为我做了一件美好的事。 11 要知道，你们总是有穷人与你们在一起，但你们不总是有我。 12 她把这香液浇在我身上，是为了预备安葬我而做的。 13 我确实地告诉你们：在全世界，福音无论传到什么地方，这女人所做的事也将被述说，做为对她的记念。”
14 那时候，十二使徒[c]中的一个，就是那称为加略人犹大的，到祭司长们那里去， 15 说：“如果我把他交给你们，你们愿意给我什么？”他们就约定给他三十个银钱。 16 从那时候起，犹大就开始找机会要把耶稣交出去。
在逾越节被出卖
17 除酵节的第一日，门徒们前来问耶稣：“你要我们到哪里去预备，好让你吃逾越节的晚餐呢？”
18 耶稣说：“你们进城去，到某人那里，告诉他：‘老师说，我的时候快到了。我要在你那里与我的门徒们一起守逾越节。’” 19 门徒们就依照耶稣所吩咐的去做，预备了逾越节的晚餐。 20 到了晚上，耶稣与十二使徒一同坐席。 21 在他们吃的时候，耶稣说：“我确实地告诉你们：你们当中有一个人要出卖我。”
22 他们极其忧伤，就一个一个地开始问耶稣：“主啊，不会是我吧？”
23 耶稣回答说：“那与我一同把手蘸在盘子里的，就是要出卖我的人。 24 人子确实要离去，正如经上指着他所写的，但是出卖人子的那个人有祸了。对他来说，没有出生倒好。”
25 那出卖耶稣的犹大应声说：“拉比，不会是我吧？”
耶稣对他说：“你已经说了。”
第一次圣餐
26 在他们吃的时候，耶稣拿起饼来，祝福了，就掰开，递给门徒们，说：“你们领受吃吧，这是我的身体。” 27 接着，他拿起杯来，祝谢了，递给他们，说：“你们都来喝， 28 因为这是我的血，是为立约[d]的，为许多人所流的，使罪得赦免。 29 我告诉你们：从今以后我绝不喝这葡萄汁[e]，直到我在我父的国里与你们一起喝新的那一天。” 30 他们唱了赞美诗[f]，就出来，往橄榄山去了。
预言彼得不认主
31 那时，耶稣对他们说：“今天晚上，你们都将因我被绊倒，因为经上记着：
‘我将击打牧人，
群羊就被分散。’[g]
32 但是我复活以后，要在你们之前到加利利去。”
33 彼得对耶稣说：“即使所有的人因你被绊倒，我也绝不会被绊倒。”
34 耶稣对他说：“我确实地告诉你：今天晚上鸡叫以前，你会三次不认我。”
35 彼得对耶稣说：“即使我必须与你同死，我也绝不会不认你。”所有的门徒也都如此说。
园中的祷告
36 随后，耶稣与他们来到一个叫客西马尼的地方。耶稣对门徒们说：“我走开在那里祷告的时候，你们坐在这里。” 37 他带了彼得和西庇太的两个儿子一起去，开始感到忧虑，极其难过， 38 就对他们说：“我的灵魂很忧伤，几乎要死。你们留在这里，与我一同警醒。” 39 耶稣稍往前走，把脸伏在地上祷告说：“我父啊，如果有可能，让这杯离开我吧！但不要照我的意愿，而要照你的意愿。”
40 耶稣回到门徒们那里，看见他们睡着了，就对彼得说：“你们怎么就不能与我一同警醒一个小时呢？ 41 要警醒祷告，免得陷入试探。你们心灵虽然愿意，肉体却是软弱的。”
42 耶稣第二次又去祷告说：“我父啊，如果这杯不能离开我[h]，一定要我喝下，那就愿你的旨意成就！” 43 他又回来，看见他们在睡觉，因为他们的眼皮发沉。
44 耶稣又离开他们，第三次去祷告，又说了同样的话。 45 然后，他回到门徒们那里，对他们说：“你们还在睡觉、休息吗？看哪，时候快到了！人子被交在[i]罪人的手里了。 46 起来，我们走吧！看，那出卖我的人快到了！”
犹大亲吻的暗号
47 耶稣还在说话的时候，忽然十二使徒之一的犹大来了。有一大群人拿着刀剑和棍棒与他一起来，他们是祭司长们和民间的长老们所派来的。 48 那出卖耶稣的人已经和他们定了一个暗号，说：“我如果亲吻谁，谁就是那个人。你们把他抓住。” 49 犹大立刻上前来对耶稣说：“拉比，愿你欢喜！”然后亲吻了他。
50 耶稣对他说：“朋友，你为什么来到这里？”
于是，那些人上前来，下手拘捕了耶稣。 51 这时候，忽然有一个与耶稣在一起的人伸手拔出刀来，向大祭司的奴仆砍去，削掉了他的一个耳朵。
52 耶稣就对他说：“把你的刀收回原处！因为凡动刀的，必死在刀下。 53 难道你想我不能求我父，现在就为我派来十二个军团以上的天使吗？ 54 如果这样，‘事情必须如此发生’的经文怎么应验呢？”
55 这时候，耶稣对那群人说：“你们带着刀剑和棍棒出来抓我，就像对付强盗那样吗？我天天坐在圣殿里教导人，你们并没有抓我。 56 不过这整个事的发生，是为要应验先知书的那些经文。”这时候，所有的门徒都离开他，逃跑了。
在议员面前受审
57 拘捕耶稣的人把他带到大祭司该亚法那里。经文士们和长老们已经聚集在那里了。 58 彼得远远地跟着耶稣，一直到大祭司的院子。他进到里面，与差役们坐在一起，想看看结果如何。
59 当时，祭司长们[j]和全议会的人为了要处死耶稣，都在寻找伪证来控告他。 60 虽然有许多假见证人上前来，可是他们找不出什么。后来有两个人[k]上前来， 61 说：“这个人说过：‘我能拆毁神的圣所，三天内又建起来。’”
62 于是大祭司就站起来，问耶稣：“对这些人控告你的事，你什么都不回应吗？” 63 耶稣却沉默不语。大祭司又对他说：“我命令你指着永生的神起誓，告诉我们你是不是基督——神的儿子？”
64 耶稣回答他，说：“你已经说了。不过我告诉你们：将来你们会看见人子坐在全能者的右边，在天上的云彩中来临。[l]”
65 大祭司就撕裂自己的衣服，说：“他说了亵渎的话！难道我们还需要什么见证人吗？看，现在你们都听见了这亵渎的话。 66 你们怎么看？”
他们回答说：“他是该死的！” 67 当时他们就往他脸上吐唾沫，用拳头打他，也有人用手掌打他， 68 说：“给我们说预言吧！基督！打你的是谁？”
彼得不认主
69 彼得坐在外面的院子里，有一个女仆过来对他说：“你也与那个加利利人耶稣是一伙的。”
70 彼得却在众人面前否认说：“我不知道你在说什么。”
71 他出去到门口，另有一个女仆看见他，对那里的人说：“这个人与拿撒勒人耶稣是一伙的。”
72 彼得又起誓否认说：“我不认识那个人！”
73 过了一会儿，旁边站着的人过来对彼得说：“你真的也是与他们一伙的，因为连你的口音也把你暴露了。”
74 彼得就开始赌咒并起誓说：“我不认识那个人！”立时，鸡就叫了。 75 彼得想起耶稣说过的话：“鸡叫以前，你会三次不认我”，就到外面去，痛哭起来。

Chinese New Version (Traditional)
商議怎樣殺害耶穌(A)
26 耶穌說完了這一切話，就對門徒說： 2 “你們知道兩天之後就是逾越節，人子將要被交給人，釘在十字架上。” 3 那時，祭司長和民間的長老聚集在大祭司該亞法的官邸， 4 商議怎樣用詭計逮捕耶穌，把他殺害。 5 不過他們說：“不可在節期下手，免得引起民眾暴動。”
有女人用香膏膏主(B)
6 耶穌在伯大尼，在患痲風的西門家裡的時候， 7 有一個女人拿著一瓶珍貴的香膏前來，當耶穌坐席的時候，把它澆在耶穌的頭上。 8 門徒看見了，就很生氣，說：“為甚麼這樣浪費呢？ 9 這香膏可以賣很多錢，賙濟窮人。” 10 耶穌知道了，就說：“為甚麼難為這個女人呢？她為我作了一件美事。 11 你們常常有窮人跟你們在一起，然而卻不常有我。 12 她把這香膏澆在我身上，是為了安葬我而作的。 13 我實在告訴你們，這福音無論傳到世界上甚麼地方，這女人所作的都要傳講，來記念她。”
猶大出賣耶穌(C)
14 那時，十二門徒中的一個，就是加略人猶大，去見祭司長，說： 15 “如果我把他交給你們，你們願意給我甚麼呢？”他們就給了他三十塊銀子。 16 從那時起，他就找機會把耶穌交給他們。
最後的晚餐(D)
17 除酵節的第一天，門徒前來問耶穌：“你要我們在哪裡為你預備逾越節的晚餐呢？” 18 他說：“你們到城裡去見某人，對他說，老師說：‘我的時候快到了；我要到你那裡和我的門徒守逾越節。’” 19 門徒照耶穌的指示去作，預備好了逾越節的晚餐。 20 到了晚上，耶穌和十二門徒一同吃晚餐。 21 他們吃的時候，耶穌說：“我實在告訴你們，你們中間有一個人要出賣我。” 22 他們就很憂愁，一個一個地問他：“主啊，是我嗎？” 23 他回答：“那和我一同把手蘸在盤子裡的人，他要出賣我。 24 正如經上指著人子所說的，他固然要離世，但出賣人子的那人有禍了！他沒有生下來倒好。” 25 那出賣耶穌的猶大說：“拉比，是我嗎？”他說：“這是你說的。”
26 他們吃的時候，耶穌拿起餅來，祝謝了就擘開，遞給門徒，說：“你們拿去吃吧，這是我的身體。” 27 耶穌又拿起杯來，祝謝了就遞給他們，說：“你們都喝吧， 28 這是我的血，是為立約的，為許多人流出來，使罪得赦。 29 我告訴你們，從今以後我必不再喝這葡萄酒，直到我和你們在我父的國裡喝新酒的那一天。” 30 他們唱完了詩，就出來往橄欖山去。
預言彼得不認主(E)
31 那時，耶穌對他們說：“今天晚上，你們因我的緣故都要後退，因為經上記著：
‘我要擊打牧人，
羊群就分散了。’
32 我復活以後，要比你們先到加利利去。” 33 彼得對他說：“就算所有的人都因你的緣故後退，我卻永不後退。” 34 耶穌對他說：“我實在告訴你，今天晚上雞叫以前，你會三次不認我。” 35 彼得對他說：“就算必須與你一同死，我也決不會不認你。”門徒也都這樣說。
在客西馬尼禱告(F)
36 耶穌和門徒來到一個地方，名叫客西馬尼，就對門徒說：“你們坐在這裡，我要到那邊去禱告。” 37 他帶了彼得和西庇太的兩個兒子一起去，心裡憂愁難過， 38 對他們說：“我的心靈痛苦得快要死了；你們留在這裡，與我一同警醒吧。” 39 他稍往前走，把臉俯伏在地上，禱告說：“我的父啊！可能的話，求你使這杯離開我；但不要照我的意思，只要照你的旨意。” 40 耶穌回到門徒那裡，看見他們都睡著了，就對彼得說：“你們連一個小時也不能同我警醒嗎？ 41 應當警醒、禱告，免得陷入試探；你們心靈雖然願意，肉體卻是軟弱的。” 42 他又再次走開，禱告說：“我的父啊！如果這杯不能離開我，一定要我喝，就願你的旨意成全。” 43 他再回來的時候，看見門徒睡著了，因為他們十分疲倦。 44 他又離開他們，第三次去禱告，說的也是同樣的話。 45 然後，他回到門徒那裡，對他們說：“你們還在睡覺休息嗎？看哪，時候到了，人子要被交在罪人的手裡了。 46 起來，我們走吧！出賣我的人來了。”
耶穌被捕(G)
47 耶穌還在說話的時候，十二門徒中的猶大，帶著一大群拿著刀棒的人來到，他們是祭司長和民間的長老派來的。 48 出賣耶穌的人給他們一個暗號，說：“我跟誰親吻，誰就是他；你們可以抓住他。” 49 他立刻前來對耶穌說：“拉比，你好。”跟著就與他親吻。 50 耶穌對他說：“朋友，你來要作的事，快作吧！”於是那些人上前來，動手拿住耶穌，逮捕了他。 51 有一個與耶穌在一起的人，伸手拔出刀來，砍了大祭司的僕人一刀，削掉他的一隻耳朵。 52 耶穌對他說：“把你的刀收回原處！凡動刀的必死在刀下。 53 你以為我不能求我的父，他就馬上給我派十二營以上的天使下來嗎？ 54 如果這樣，經上預言這事必須發生，怎能應驗呢？” 55 那時，耶穌對眾人說：“你們帶著刀棒出來，把我當作強盜捉拿嗎？我天天坐在殿裡教導人，你們卻沒有逮捕我。 56 但這整件事的發生，是要應驗先知書上的話。”那時，門徒都離開他逃跑了。
大祭司審問耶穌(H)
57 那些逮捕了耶穌的人，把他押去見大祭司該亞法。那時經學家和長老已經聚集在那裡了。 58 彼得遠遠地跟著耶穌，直到大祭司的官邸。他進到裡面，和差役坐在一起，要看事情怎樣了結。 59 祭司長和公議會全體都想找假證供來控告耶穌，好把他處死； 60 雖然有許多人前來作假證供，卻找不著證據。最後有兩個人前來說： 61 “這人說過：‘我可以拆毀 神的聖所，三日之內又把它建造起來。’” 62 大祭司就站起來，對耶穌說：“你為甚麼不回答？這些人作證，控告你的是甚麼呢？” 63 耶穌卻不作聲。大祭司又對他說：“我指著永生的 神要你起誓，告訴我們你是不是基督、 神的兒子。” 64 耶穌回答：“你已經說了（“你已經說了”或譯：“這是你說的”）；但我告訴你們：
從今以後，你們要看見人子，
坐在權能者的右邊，
駕著天上的雲降臨。”
65 大祭司就撕開衣服，說：“他說了褻瀆的話，我們還要甚麼證人呢？你們現在聽見了這褻瀆的話， 66 認為怎樣呢？”他們回答：“他是該死的。” 67 於是他們吐唾沫在他的臉上，用拳頭打他，也有人用掌摑他，說： 68 “基督啊，向我們說預言吧！是誰打你呢？”
彼得三次不認主(I)
69 彼得坐在外面的院子裡，有一個婢女走過來對他說：“你也是和加利利人耶穌一夥的。” 70 彼得卻當眾否認，說：“我不知道你說甚麼。” 71 他出到門口，又有一個婢女看見他，就對那裡的人說：“這人是和拿撒勒人耶穌一夥的。” 72 彼得再次否認，並且發誓說：“我不認識那個人。” 73 過了一會，站在那裡的人前來對他說：“你的確是他們中間的一個，因為一聽你的口音就認出來了。” 74 彼得就發咒起誓說：“我不認識那一個人。”立刻雞就叫了。 75 彼得想起耶穌所說的話：“雞叫以前，你會三次不認我”，他就出去痛哭。
Matthew 26
English Standard Version
The Plot to Kill Jesus
26 When Jesus had finished all these sayings, he said to his disciples, 2 (A)“You know that after two days (B)the Passover is coming, and (C)the Son of Man (D)will be delivered up to be crucified.”
3 (E)Then the chief priests and the elders of the people gathered in (F)the palace of the high priest, whose name was (G)Caiaphas, 4 (H)and plotted together in order to arrest Jesus by stealth and kill him. 5 But they said, “Not during the feast, (I)lest there be an uproar among the people.”
Jesus Anointed at Bethany
6 (J)Now when Jesus was at (K)Bethany in the house of Simon the leper,[a] 7 a woman came up to him with an alabaster flask of very expensive ointment, and she poured it on his head as he reclined at table. 8 And when the disciples saw it, they were indignant, saying, “Why this waste? 9 For this could have been sold for a large sum and (L)given to the poor.” 10 But (M)Jesus, aware of this, said to them, “Why do you trouble the woman? For she has done a beautiful thing to me. 11 For (N)you always have the poor with you, but (O)you will not always have me. 12 In pouring this ointment on my body, she has done it (P)to prepare me for burial. 13 Truly, I say to you, wherever (Q)this gospel is proclaimed in the whole world, what she has done will also be told (R)in memory of her.”
Judas to Betray Jesus
14 (S)Then one of the twelve, whose name was (T)Judas Iscariot, went to the chief priests 15 and said, “What will you give me if I deliver him over to you?” And they (U)paid him (V)thirty pieces of silver. 16 And from that moment he sought an opportunity (W)to betray him.
The Passover with the Disciples
17 (X)Now on (Y)the first day of Unleavened Bread the disciples came to Jesus, saying, “Where will you have us prepare for you to eat the Passover?” 18 He said, “Go into the city to a certain man and say to him, (Z)‘The Teacher says, (AA)My time is at hand. I will keep the Passover at your house with my disciples.’” 19 And the disciples did as Jesus had directed them, and they prepared the Passover.
20 (AB)When it was evening, he reclined at table with the twelve.[b] 21 And as they were eating, (AC)he said, “Truly, I say to you, one of you will betray me.” 22 And they were very sorrowful and began to say to him one after another, “Is it I, Lord?” 23 He answered, (AD)“He who has dipped his hand in the dish with me will betray me. 24 The Son of Man goes (AE)as it is written of him, but (AF)woe to that man by whom the Son of Man is betrayed! (AG)It would have been better for that man if he had not been born.” 25 Judas, who would betray him, answered, “Is it I, (AH)Rabbi?” He said to him, (AI)“You have said so.”
Institution of the Lord's Supper
26 (AJ)Now as they were eating, Jesus took bread, and (AK)after blessing it broke it and gave it to the disciples, and said, “Take, eat; (AL)this is my body.” 27 And he took a cup, and when he (AM)had given thanks he gave it to them, saying, “Drink of it, all of you, 28 for (AN)this is my (AO)blood of the[c] covenant, which is poured out for (AP)many (AQ)for the forgiveness of sins. 29 I tell you I will not drink again of this fruit of the vine until that day when I drink it new with you (AR)in my Father's kingdom.”
Jesus Foretells Peter's Denial
30 (AS)And when they had sung a hymn, (AT)they went out to (AU)the Mount of Olives. 31 Then Jesus said to them, “You will all fall away because of me this night. For it is written, ‘I will (AV)strike the shepherd, and the sheep of the flock will be scattered.’ 32 But after I am raised up, (AW)I will go before you to Galilee.” 33 (AX)Peter answered him, “Though they all fall away because of you, I will never fall away.” 34 (AY)Jesus said to him, “Truly, I tell you, this very night, (AZ)before the rooster crows, you will deny me three times.” 35 (BA)Peter said to him, “Even if I must die with you, I will not deny you!” And all the disciples said the same.
Jesus Prays in Gethsemane
36 (BB)Then Jesus went with them (BC)to a place called Gethsemane, and he said to his disciples, “Sit here, while I go over there and pray.” 37 And taking with him (BD)Peter and (BE)the two sons of Zebedee, he began to be sorrowful and troubled. 38 Then he said to them, (BF)“My soul is very sorrowful, even to death; remain here, and (BG)watch[d] with me.” 39 And going a little farther he fell on his face (BH)and prayed, saying, “My Father, if it be possible, let (BI)this cup pass from me; (BJ)nevertheless, not as I will, but as you will.” 40 And he came to the disciples and found them sleeping. And he said to Peter, “So, could you not watch with me one hour? 41 (BK)Watch and (BL)pray that you (BM)may not enter into temptation. The spirit indeed is willing, but the flesh is weak.” 42 Again, for the second time, he went away and prayed, “My Father, if this cannot pass unless I drink it, (BN)your will be done.” 43 And again he came and found them sleeping, for (BO)their eyes were heavy. 44 So, leaving them again, he went away and prayed for (BP)the third time, saying the same words again. 45 Then he came to the disciples and said to them, “Sleep and take your rest later on.[e] See, (BQ)the hour is at hand, and (BR)the Son of Man is betrayed into the hands of sinners. 46 Rise, let us be going; see, my betrayer is at hand.”
Betrayal and Arrest of Jesus
47 (BS)While he was still speaking, (BT)Judas came, one of the twelve, and with him a great crowd with swords and clubs, from the chief priests and the elders of the people. 48 Now the betrayer had given them a sign, saying, “The one I will kiss is the man; seize him.” 49 And he came up to Jesus at once and said, “Greetings, (BU)Rabbi!” And he kissed him. 50 Jesus said to him, (BV)“Friend, (BW)do what you came to do.”[f] Then they came up and laid hands on Jesus and seized him. 51 And behold, one of those who were with Jesus stretched out his hand and drew his (BX)sword and struck the servant[g] of the high priest and cut off his ear. 52 Then Jesus said to him, “Put your sword back into its place. For (BY)all who take the sword will perish by the sword. 53 (BZ)Do you think that I cannot appeal to my Father, and he will at once send me (CA)more than twelve (CB)legions of angels? 54 (CC)But how then should the Scriptures be fulfilled, that it must be so?” 55 At that hour Jesus said to the crowds, “Have you come out as against a robber, with swords and clubs to capture me? Day after day (CD)I sat in the temple (CE)teaching, and you did not seize me. 56 But (CF)all this has taken place that the Scriptures of the prophets might be fulfilled.” (CG)Then all the disciples left him and fled.
Jesus Before Caiaphas and the Council
57 (CH)Then (CI)those who had seized Jesus led him to (CJ)Caiaphas the high priest, where the scribes and the elders had gathered. 58 And (CK)Peter was following him at a distance, as far as (CL)the courtyard of the high priest, and going inside he sat with (CM)the guards to see the end. 59 Now the chief priests and the whole council[h] (CN)were seeking false testimony against Jesus that they might put him to death, 60 but they found none, (CO)though many false witnesses came forward. At last (CP)two came forward 61 and said, “This man said, (CQ)‘I am able to (CR)destroy the temple of God, and to rebuild it in three days.’” 62 And the high priest stood up and said, “Have you no answer to make? What is it that these men testify against you?”[i] 63 (CS)But Jesus remained silent. (CT)And the high priest said to him, (CU)“I adjure you by (CV)the living God, (CW)tell us if you are (CX)the Christ, (CY)the Son of God.” 64 Jesus said to him, (CZ)“You have said so. But I tell you, from now on (DA)you will see the Son of Man (DB)seated at the right hand of Power and (DC)coming on the clouds of heaven.” 65 Then the high priest (DD)tore his robes and said, (DE)“He has uttered blasphemy. What further witnesses do we need? You have now heard his blasphemy. 66 What is your judgment?” They answered, (DF)“He deserves death.” 67 Then (DG)they spit in his face (DH)and (DI)struck him. And some slapped him, 68 saying, “Prophesy to us, you (DJ)Christ! Who is it that struck you?”
Peter Denies Jesus
69 (DK)Now Peter was sitting outside (DL)in the courtyard. And a servant girl came up to him and said, “You also were with Jesus the Galilean.” 70 But he denied it before them all, saying, “I do not know what you mean.” 71 And when he went out to the entrance, another servant girl saw him, and she said to the bystanders, “This man was with Jesus (DM)of Nazareth.” 72 And again he denied it with an oath: “I do not know the man.” 73 After a little while the bystanders came up and said to Peter, “Certainly you too are one of them, for (DN)your accent betrays you.” 74 Then he began to invoke a curse on himself and to swear, “I do not know the man.” And immediately the rooster crowed. 75 And Peter remembered the saying of Jesus, (DO)“Before the rooster crows, you will (DP)deny me three times.” And he went out and wept bitterly.
