< 約翰福音 21 >
1 事後,耶穌在提庇黎雅海邊,又顯現給門徒;他是這樣顯現的:
After these things Jesus manifested himself again to the disciples at the sea of Tiberias; and he manifested [himself] on this wise.
2 當西滿伯多祿,號稱狄狄摩的多默,加里肋亞加納的納塔乃耳,載伯德的兩個兒子,和其他兩個門徒在一起的時候,
There were together Simon Peter, and Thomas called Didymus, and Nathanael of Cana in Galilee, and the [sons] of Zebedee, and two other of his disciples.
3 西滿伯多祿對他們說: 「我去打魚。」他們回答說: 「我們也同你一起去。」他們便出去,上了船;但那一夜什麼也沒捕到。
Simon Peter saith unto them, I go a fishing. They say unto him, We also come with thee. They went forth, and entered into the boat; and that night they took nothing.
4 已經到了早晨,耶穌站在岸上,門徒卻沒有認出他是耶穌。
But when day was now breaking, Jesus stood on the beach: howbeit the disciples knew not that it was Jesus.
5 耶穌對他們說:「孩子們,你們有些魚吃嗎?」他們回答說:「沒有。」
Jesus therefore saith unto them, Children, have ye aught to eat? They answered him, No.
6 耶穌向他們說:「向船右邊撒網,就會捕到。」他們便撒下網去,因為魚太多,竟不能拉上網來。
And he said unto them, Cast the net on the right side of the boat, and ye shall find. They cast therefore, and now they were not able to draw it for the multitude of fishes.
7 耶穌所愛的那個門徒就對伯多祿說:「是主。」西滿伯多祿一聽說是主,他原是赤著身,就束上外衣,縱身跳入海裏;
That disciple therefore whom Jesus loved saith unto Peter, It is the Lord. So when Simon Peter heard that it was the Lord, he girt his coat about him (for he was naked), and cast himself into the sea.
8 其他的門徒,因離岸不遠──約有二百肘──坐著小船,拖著一網魚而來。
But the other disciples came in the little boat (for they were not far from the land, but about two hundred cubits off), dragging the net [full] of fishes.
9 他們上了岸,看見放著一堆炭火,上面放著魚和餅。
So when they got out upon the land, they see a fire of coals there, and fish laid thereon, and bread.
10 耶穌對他們說 :「把你們剛才所打得的魚拿一些來!」
Jesus saith unto them, Bring of the fish which ye have now taken.
11 西滿伯多祿便上去,把網拉上岸來,網裏滿了大魚,共一百五十三條;雖然這麼多,網卻沒有破。
Simon Peter therefore went up, and drew the net to land, full of great fishes, a hundred and fifty and three: and for all there were so many, the net was not rent.
12 耶穌向他們說:「你們來吃早飯罷! 」門徒中沒有人敢問他:「你是誰?」因為知道是主。
Jesus saith unto them, Come [and] break your fast. And none of the disciples durst inquire of him, Who art thou? knowing that it was the Lord.
13 耶穌遂上前拿起餅來,遞給他們;也同樣拿起魚來,遞給他們。
Jesus cometh, and taketh the bread, and giveth them, and the fish likewise.
14 耶穌從死者中復活後,向門徒顯現,這已是第三次。
This is now the third time that Jesus was manifested to the disciples, after that he was risen from the dead.
15 吃完了早飯,耶穌對西滿伯多祿說:「若望的兒子西滿,你比他們更愛我嗎?」伯多祿回答說:「主,是的,你知道我愛你。」耶穌就對他說:「你餵養我的羔羊。」
So when they had broken their fast, Jesus saith to Simon Peter, Simon, [son] of John, lovest thou me more than these? He saith unto him, Yea, Lord; thou knowest that I love thee. He saith unto him, Feed my lambs.
16 耶穌第二次又問他說:「若望的兒子西滿,你愛我嗎?」伯多祿回答說:「主,是的,你知道我愛你。」耶穌就對他說:「你牧放我的羊群。」
He saith to him again a second time, Simon, [son] of John, lovest thou me? He saith unto him, Yea, Lord; thou knowest that I love thee. He saith unto him, Tend my sheep.
17 耶穌說:「若望的兒子西滿,你愛我嗎?」伯多祿因耶穌第三次問他說:「你愛我嗎?」便憂愁起來,遂向他說:「主啊! 一切你都知道,你曉得我愛你。」耶穌對他說:「你餵養我的羊群。」
He saith unto him the third time, Simon, [son] of John, lovest thou me? Peter was grieved because he said unto him the third time, Lovest thou me? And he said unto him, Lord, thou knowest all things; thou knowest that I love thee. Jesus saith unto him, Feed my sheep.
18 我實實在在告訴你:你年少時,自己束上腰,任意往來;但到了老年,你要伸出手來,別人要給你束上腰,帶你往你不願去的地方去。」
Verily, verily, I say unto thee, When thou wast young, thou girdedst thyself, and walkedst whither thou wouldest: but when thou shalt be old, thou shalt stretch forth thy hands, and another shall gird thee, and carry thee whither thou wouldest not.
19 耶穌說這話,是指他將以怎樣的死,去光榮天主。說完這話,又對他說:「跟隨我罷! 」
Now this he spake, signifying by what manner of death he should glorify God. And when he had spoken this, he saith unto him, Follow me.
20 伯多祿轉過身來,看見耶穌所愛的那個門徒跟著,即在晚餐時靠耶穌胸膛前問:「主! 是誰出賣你?」的那個門徒。
Peter, turning about, seeth the disciple whom Jesus loved following; which also leaned back on his breast at the supper, and said, Lord, who is he that betrayeth thee?
21 伯多祿一看見他,就對耶穌說:「主,他怎樣?」
Peter therefore seeing him saith to Jesus, Lord, and what shall this man do?
22 耶穌向他說:「我如果要他存留直到我來,與你何干?你只管跟隨我。」
Jesus saith unto him, If I will that he tarry till I come, what [is that] to thee? follow thou me.
23 於是在兄弟們中間傳出這話說:「那門徒不死。」其實耶穌並沒有說:他不死,而只說:「我如果要他存留直到我來,與你何干?」
This saying therefore went forth among the brethren, that that disciple should not die: yet Jesus said not unto him, that he should not die; but, If I will that he tarry till I come, what [is that] to thee?
24 為這些事作證,且寫下這些事的,就是這個門徒,我們知道:他的作證是真實的。
This is the disciple which beareth witness of these things, and wrote these things: and we know that his witness is true.
25 耶穌所行的還有許多別的事;假使要一一寫出來,我想所要寫的書,連這世界也容不下。
And there are also many other things which Jesus did, the which if they should be written every one, I suppose that even the world itself would not contain the books that should be written.
