詩篇 78:1-4
Chinese Union Version Modern Punctuation (Traditional)
述選民違逆及神恩導
78 亞薩的訓誨詩。
1 我的民哪，你們要留心聽我的訓誨，側耳聽我口中的話。
2 我要開口說比喻，我要說出古時的謎語，
3 是我們所聽見所知道的，也是我們的祖宗告訴我們的。
4 我們不將這些事向他們的子孫隱瞞，要將耶和華的美德和他的能力，並他奇妙的作為，述說給後代聽。
Psalm 78:1-4
English Standard Version
Tell the Coming Generation
A Maskil[a] of (A)Asaph.
78 (B)Give ear, O my people, to my teaching;
incline your ears to the words of my mouth!
2 (C)I will open my mouth (D)in a parable;
I will utter dark sayings from of old,
3 things that we have heard and known,
that our (E)fathers have told us.
4 We will not (F)hide them from their children,
but (G)tell to the coming generation
the glorious deeds of the Lord, and his might,
and (H)the wonders that he has done.

Chinese Union Version Modern Punctuation (Traditional)
12 他在埃及地，在瑣安田，在他們祖宗的眼前，施行奇事。
13 他將海分裂，使他們過去，又叫水立起如壘。
14 他白日用雲彩，終夜用火光，引導他們。
15 他在曠野分裂磐石，多多地給他們水喝，如從深淵而出。
16 他使水從磐石湧出，叫水如江河下流。

12 In the sight of their fathers (A)he performed wonders
in the land of Egypt, in (B)the fields of Zoan.
13 He (C)divided the sea and let them pass through it,
and made the waters (D)stand like a heap.
14 (E)In the daytime he led them with a cloud,
and all the night with a fiery light.
15 He (F)split rocks in the wilderness
and gave them drink abundantly as from the deep.
16 He made streams come out of (G)the rock
and caused waters to flow down like rivers.
出埃及記 17:1-7
Chinese Union Version Modern Punctuation (Traditional)
耶和華命摩西擊磐出水
17 以色列全會眾都遵耶和華的吩咐，按著站口從汛的曠野往前行，在利非訂安營。百姓沒有水喝， 2 所以與摩西爭鬧，說：「給我們水喝吧！」摩西對他們說：「你們為什麼與我爭鬧，為什麼試探耶和華呢？」 3 百姓在那裡甚渴，要喝水，就向摩西發怨言，說：「你為什麼將我們從埃及領出來，使我們和我們的兒女並牲畜都渴死呢？」 4 摩西就呼求耶和華說：「我向這百姓怎樣行呢？他們幾乎要拿石頭打死我。」 5 耶和華對摩西說：「你手裡拿著你先前擊打河水的杖，帶領以色列的幾個長老，從百姓面前走過去。 6 我必在何烈的磐石那裡，站在你面前。你要擊打磐石，從磐石裡必有水流出來，使百姓可以喝。」摩西就在以色列的長老眼前這樣行了。 7 他給那地方起名叫瑪撒[a]，又叫米利巴[b]，因以色列人爭鬧，又因他們試探耶和華，說：「耶和華是在我們中間不是？」

Water from the Rock
17 (A)All the congregation of the people of Israel moved on from the wilderness of Sin by stages, according to the commandment of the Lord, and camped at Rephidim, but there was no water for the people to drink. 2 (B)Therefore the people quarreled with Moses and said, “Give us water to drink.” And Moses said to them, “Why do you quarrel with me? Why do you (C)test the Lord?” 3 But the people thirsted there for water, and (D)the people grumbled against Moses and said, “Why did you bring us up out of Egypt, to kill us and our children and our livestock with thirst?” 4 So Moses cried to the Lord, “What shall I do with this people? They are almost ready (E)to stone me.” 5 And the Lord said to Moses, “Pass on before the people, taking with you some of the elders of Israel, and take in your hand the staff with (F)which you struck the Nile, and go. 6 (G)Behold, I will stand before you there on the rock at Horeb, and you shall strike the rock, and water shall come out of it, and the people will drink.” And Moses did so, in the sight of the elders of Israel. 7 And he called the name of the place (H)Massah[a] and (I)Meribah,[b] because of the quarreling of the people of Israel, and because they tested the Lord by saying, “Is the Lord among us or not?”

馬太福音 21:23-32
Chinese Union Version Modern Punctuation (Traditional)
辯駁耶穌的權柄
23 耶穌進了殿，正教訓人的時候，祭司長和民間的長老來，問他說：「你仗著什麼權柄做這些事？給你這權柄的是誰呢？」 24 耶穌回答說：「我也要問你們一句話，你們若告訴我，我就告訴你們我仗著什麼權柄做這些事。 25 約翰的洗禮是從哪裡來的？是從天上來的，是從人間來的呢？」他們彼此商議說：「我們若說從天上來，他必對我們說：『這樣，你們為什麼不信他呢？』 26 若說從人間來，我們又怕百姓，因為他們都以約翰為先知。」 27 於是回答耶穌說：「我們不知道。」耶穌說：「我也不告訴你們我仗著什麼權柄做這些事。」
兩個兒子的比喻
28 又說：「一個人有兩個兒子。他來對大兒子說：『我兒，你今天到葡萄園裡去做工。』 29 他回答說『我不去』，以後自己懊悔，就去了。 30 又來對小兒子也是這樣說，他回答說『父啊，我去』，他卻不去。 31 你們想這兩個兒子是哪一個遵行父命呢？」他們說：「大兒子。」耶穌說：「我實在告訴你們：稅吏和娼妓倒比你們先進神的國。 32 因為約翰遵著義路到你們這裡來，你們卻不信他，稅吏和娼妓倒信他。你們看見了，後來還是不懊悔去信他。

Matthew 21:23-32
English Standard Version
The Authority of Jesus Challenged
23 (A)And when he entered the temple, the chief priests and the elders of the people came up to him (B)as he was teaching, and said, (C)“By what authority are you doing these things, and who gave you this authority?” 24 Jesus answered them, “I also will ask you one question, and if you tell me the answer, then I also will tell you by what authority I do these things. 25 The baptism of John, (D)from where did it come? (E)From heaven or from man?” And they discussed it among themselves, saying, “If we say, ‘From heaven,’ he will say to us, (F)‘Why then did you not believe him?’ 26 But if we say, ‘From man,’ (G)we are afraid of the crowd, for they all hold that John was (H)a prophet.” 27 So they answered Jesus, “We do not know.” And he said to them, “Neither will I tell you by what authority I do these things.
The Parable of the Two Sons
28 (I)“What do you think? A man had two sons. And he went to the first and said, ‘Son, go and work in (J)the vineyard today.’ 29 And he answered, ‘I will not,’ but afterward he (K)changed his mind and went. 30 And he went to the other son and said the same. And he answered, ‘I go, sir,’ but did not go. 31 Which of the two did the will of his father?” They said, “The first.” Jesus said to them, “Truly, I say to you, (L)the tax collectors and (M)the prostitutes go into (N)the kingdom of God before you. 32 For John came to you (O)in the way of righteousness, and (P)you did not believe him, but (Q)the tax collectors and the prostitutes believed him. And even when you saw it, you did not afterward (R)change your minds and believe him.
