Acts

Chapter 11

1 And the apostles652 and brothers80 that were in Judaea2449 heard191 that the Gentiles1484 had also2532 received1209 the word3056 of God.2316

2 And when3753 Peter4074 was come305 up to Jerusalem,2414 they that were of the circumcision4061 contended1252 with him,

3 Saying,3004 You went1525 in to men435 uncircumcised,203 2192 and did eat4906 with them.

4 But Peter4074 rehearsed756 the matter from the beginning,756 and expounded1620 it by order2517 to them, saying,3004

5 I was in the city4172 of Joppa2445 praying:4336 and in a trance1611 I saw1492 a vision,3705 A certain5100 vessel4632 descend,2597 as it had been a great3173 sheet,3607 let2524 down2524 from heaven3772 by four5064 corners;746 and it came2064 even891 to me:

6 On the which3739 when I had fastened816 my eyes, I considered,2657 and saw1492 four footed5074 beasts5074 of the earth,1093 and wild2342 beasts,2342 and creeping2062 things, and fowls4071 of the air.3772

7 And I heard191 a voice5456 saying3004 to me, Arise,450 Peter;4074 slay2380 and eat.5315

8 But I said,2036 Not so,3365 Lord:2962 for nothing3956 3763 common2839 or2228 unclean169 has at3763 any3763 time entered1525 into1519 my mouth.4750

9 But the voice5456 answered611 me again1537 1208 from heaven,3772 What3739 God2316 has cleansed,2511 that call2840 not you common.2839

10 And this5124 was done1096 three5151 times:5151 and all537 were drawn385 up again3825 into1519 heaven.3772

11 And, behold,2400 immediately1824 there were three5140 men435 already come2186 to the house3614 where1722 3739 I was, sent649 from Caesarea2542 to me.

12 And the Spirit4151 bade2036 me go4905 with them, nothing3367 doubting.1252 Moreover1161 these3778 six1803 brothers80 accompanied2064 4862 me, and we entered1525 into1519 the man's435 house:3624

13 And he showed518 us how4459 he had seen1492 an angel32 in his house,3624 which stood2476 and said2036 to him, Send649 men435 to Joppa,2445 and call3343 for Simon,4613 whose3588 surname1941 is Peter;4074

14 Who3739 shall tell2980 you words,4487 whereby1722 3739 you and all3956 your house3624 shall be saved.4982

15 And as I began756 to speak,2980 the Holy40 Ghost4151 fell1968 on1909 them, as on1909 us at1722 the beginning.746

16 Then1161 remembered3415 I the word4487 of the Lord,2962 how5613 that he said,3004 John2491 indeed3303 baptized907 with water;5204 but you shall be baptized907 with the Holy40 Ghost.4151

17 For as much1487 then3767 as God2316 gave1325 them the like2470 gift1431 as he did to us, who believed4100 on1909 the Lord2962 Jesus2424 Christ;5547 what5101 was I, that I could1415 withstand2967 God?2316

18 When they heard191 these5023 things, they held2270 their peace,2270 and glorified1392 God,2316 saying,3004 Then686 has God2316 also2532 to the Gentiles1484 granted1325 repentance3341 to life.2222

19 Now3767 they which were scattered1289 abroad1289 on the persecution2347 that arose1096 about1909 Stephen4736 traveled1330 as far2193 as Phenice,5403 and Cyprus,2954 and Antioch,490 preaching2980 the word3056 to none3367 but to the Jews2453 only.3440

20 And some5100 of them were men435 of Cyprus2954 and Cyrene,2957 which,3748 when they were come1525 to Antioch,490 spoke2980 to the Grecians,1675 preaching2097 the LORD2962 Jesus.2424

21 And the hand5495 of the Lord2962 was with them: and a great4183 number706 believed,4100 and turned1994 to the Lord.2962

22 Then1161 tidings3056 of these846 things came191 to the ears3775 of the church1577 which3588 was in Jerusalem:2414 and they sent1821 forth1821 Barnabas,921 that he should go1330 as far2193 as Antioch.490

23 Who,3739 when he came,3854 and had seen1492 the grace5485 of God,2316 was glad,5463 and exhorted3870 them all,3956 that with purpose4286 of heart2588 they would hold4347 to the Lord.2962

24 For he was a good18 man,435 and full4134 of the Holy40 Ghost4151 and of faith:4102 and much2425 people3793 was added4369 to the Lord.2962

25 Then1161 departed1831 Barnabas921 to Tarsus,5019 for to seek327 Saul:4569

26 And when he had found2147 him, he brought71 him to Antioch.490 And it came1096 to pass, that a whole3650 year1763 they assembled4863 themselves with the church,1577 and taught1321 much2425 people.3793 And the disciples3101 were called5537 Christians5546 first4412 in Antioch.490

27 And in these5125 days2250 came2718 prophets4396 from Jerusalem2414 to Antioch.490

28 And there stood450 up one1520 of them named3686 Agabus,13 and signified4591 by the Spirit4151 that there should3195 be great3173 dearth3042 throughout1909 all3650 the world:3625 which3748 came1096 to pass in the days1909 of Claudius2804 Caesar.2541

29 Then1161 the disciples,3101 every1538 man1538 according2531 to his ability,2141 determined3724 to send3992 relief1248 to the brothers80 which dwelled2730 in Judaea:2449

30 Which3739 also2532 they did,4160 and sent649 it to the elders4245 by the hands5495 of Barnabas921 and Saul.4569

使徒行傳

第11章

1 使徒和在猶太的眾弟兄聽說外邦人也領受了神的道。

2 及至彼得上了耶路撒冷,那些奉割禮的門徒和他爭辯說:

3 「你進入未受割禮之人的家和他們一同用餐[eat]了。」

4 彼得就開口把這事從起頭[from the beginning]按次序[by order]給他們講解,說:

5 「我在約帕城裏禱告的時候,魂遊象外,看見異象,有一物降下,好像一塊大布,繫著四角,從天縋下,直來到我跟前。

6 我定睛察看[considered],見內中有地上四足的牲畜和野獸、爬物[creeping things],並天上的飛鳥。

7 我且聽見有聲音向我說:『彼得,起來,宰了吃。』

8 我說:『主啊,這是不可的。凡俗而不潔淨的物從來沒有入過我的口。』

9 [again]有聲音從天上說:『神所潔淨的,你不可當作俗物。』

10 這樣一連三次,就都收回天上去了。

11 看哪[behold]隨即有三個人已經到我所在的屋子那裏[immediately there were three men already come unto the house where I was],是從凱撒利亞差來見我的。

12 [Spirit]吩咐我和他們同去,不要疑惑[nothing doubting]。同著我去的,還有這六個弟兄;我們都進了那人的家,

13 那人就告訴我們,他如何看見一個天使,站在他屋裏,說:『你打發人往約帕去,請那稱呼彼得的西門來;

14 他有話告訴你,可以叫你和你的全家得救。』

15 我一開講,聖靈便降在他們身上,正像當初降在我們身上一樣。

16 我就想起主的話說:『約翰是用水施浸,但你們要受聖靈的浸。』

17 神既然給他們恩賜,像在我們信主耶穌基督的時候給了我們一樣;我是誰,能攔阻神呢。」

18 眾人聽見這些[these]話,就不言語了,只歸榮耀與神,說:「這樣看來,神也賜恩給外邦人,叫他們悔改得生命了。」

19 那些因司提反的事遭患難四散的門徒直走到腓尼基和塞浦路斯,並安提阿;他們不向別人講道,只向猶太人講。

20 但內中有塞浦路斯和古利奈人,他們到了安提阿也向希臘人[Grecians]傳講主耶穌。

21 主的手[hand of the Lord]與他們同在;信而歸主的人數[number]就很多了。

22 這風聲傳到耶路撒冷教會人的耳中,他們就打發巴拿巴出去,走到安提阿為止。

23 他到了那裏,看見神所賜的恩就歡喜,勸勉眾人,立定心志,恆久靠主。

24 這巴拿巴原是個好人,被聖靈充滿,大有信心。於是有許多人歸服了主。

25 他又往大數去找掃羅,

26 找著了,就帶他到安提阿去。他們足有一[year]和教會一同聚集,教訓了許多人。門徒稱為「基督徒」是從安提阿起首。

27 當那些日子,有幾位先知從耶路撒冷下到安提阿。

28 內中有一個,名叫亞迦布,站起來,藉著[Spirit]指明普世[throughout all the world]將有大饑荒。這事到克勞第凱撒[Caesar]年間果然有了。

29 於是門徒定意照各人的力量捐錢,送去供給住在猶太的弟兄。

30 他們就這樣行,把捐項託巴拿巴和掃羅送到眾長老那裏。

8 But I said,2036 Not so,3365 Lord:2962 for nothing3956 3763 common2839 or2228 unclean169 has at3763 any3763 time entered1525 into1519 my mouth.4750

8 我說:『主啊,這是不可的。凡俗而不潔淨的物從來沒有入過我的口。』

9 But the voice5456 answered611 me again1537 1208 from heaven,3772 What3739 God2316 has cleansed,2511 that call2840 not you common.2839

9 [again]有聲音從天上說:『神所潔淨的,你不可當作俗物。』

10 And this5124 was done1096 three5151 times:5151 and all537 were drawn385 up again3825 into1519 heaven.3772

10 這樣一連三次,就都收回天上去了。

11 And, behold,2400 immediately1824 there were three5140 men435 already come2186 to the house3614 where1722 3739 I was, sent649 from Caesarea2542 to me.

17 神既然給他們恩賜,像在我們信主耶穌基督的時候給了我們一樣;我是誰,能攔阻神呢。」

18 When they heard191 these5023 things, they held2270 their peace,2270 and glorified1392 God,2316 saying,3004 Then686 has God2316 also2532 to the Gentiles1484 granted1325 repentance3341 to life.2222
