約翰福音 8
1 耶穌上了橄欖山。
but Jesus went unto the mount of Olives.
2 清晨他又來到聖殿，眾百姓都到他跟前來，他便坐下教訓他們。
And early in the morning he came again into the temple, and all the people came unto him; and he sat down, and taught them.
3 那時，經師和法利賽人帶來了一個犯姦淫時被捉住的婦人，叫她站在中間，
And the scribes and the Pharisees bring a woman taken in adultery; and having set her in the midst,
4 便向耶穌說：「師傅! 這婦人是正在犯姦淫時被捉住的，
they say unto him, Master, this woman hath been taken in adultery, in the very act.
5 在法律上，梅瑟命令我們該用石頭砸死這樣的婦人；可是，你說什麼呢？」
Now in the law Moses commanded us to stone such: what then sayest thou of her?
6 他們說這話，是要試探耶穌，好能控告他；耶穌卻彎下身去，用指頭在地上畫字。
And this they said, tempting him, that they might have [whereof] to accuse him. But Jesus stooped down, and with his finger wrote on the ground.
7 因為他們不斷地追問，他便直起身來，向他們說：「你們中間誰沒有罪，先向她投石罷! 」
But when they continued asking him, he lifted up himself, and said unto them, He that is without sin among you, let him first cast a stone at her.
8 他又彎下身去，在地上寫字。
And again he stooped down, and with his finger wrote on the ground.
9 他們一聽這話，就從年老的開始到年幼的，一個一個地都溜走了，只留下耶穌一人和站在那裡的婦人。
And they, when they heard it, went out one by one, beginning from the eldest, [even] unto the last: and Jesus was left alone, and the woman, where she was, in the midst.
10 耶穌遂直起身來向說: 「婦人！他們在那裏呢？沒有人定你的罪嗎？」
And Jesus lifted up himself, and said unto her, Woman, where are they? did no man condemn thee?
11 她說: 「主！沒有人。」耶穌向她說: 「我也不定你的罪；去罷! 從今以後，不要再犯罪了! 」
And she said, No man, Lord. And Jesus said, Neither do I condemn thee: go thy way; from henceforth sin no more.]
12 耶穌又向眾人講說: 「我是世界的光；跟隨我的，決不在黑暗中行走，必有生命的光。」
Again therefore Jesus spake unto them, saying, I am the light of the world: he that followeth me shall not walk in the darkness, but shall have the light of life.
13 法利賽於是對對他說: 「你為你自己作證，你的證據是不可憑信的。」
The Pharisees therefore said unto him, Thou bearest witness of thyself; thy witness is not true.
14 耶穌回答說：「我即便為我自己作證，我的證據是可憑信的，因為我知道：我從那裏來，往那裏去；你們卻不知道: 我從那裏來，或往那裏去。
Jesus answered and said unto them, Even if I bear witness of myself, my witness is true; for I know whence I came, and whither I go; but ye know not whence I come, or whither I go.
15 你們只憑肉眼判斷，我卻不判斷任何人；
Ye judge after the flesh; I judge no man.
16 即使我判斷，我的判斷仍是真實的，因為我不是獨自一個，而是有我，還有派遣我來的父。
Yea and if I judge, my judgment is true; for I am not alone, but I and the Father that sent me.
17 在你們的法律上也記載著: 兩個人的作證是可憑信的。
Yea and in your law it is written, that the witness of two men is true.
18 今有我為我自己作證，也有派遣我的父，為我作證。」
I am he that beareth witness of myself, and the Father that sent me beareth witness of me.
19 他們使問他說: 「你的父在那裏？」耶穌答覆說：「你們不認識我，也不認識我的父；若是你們認識了我，也就認識我的父了。」
They said therefore unto him, Where is thy Father? Jesus answered, Ye know neither me, nor my Father: if ye knew me, ye would know my Father also.
20 這些話是耶穌於聖殿施教時，在銀庫院裏所講的。誰也沒有捉拿，因為的時辰還沒有到。
These words spake he in the treasury, as he taught in the temple: and no man took him; because his hour was not yet come.
21 那時，耶穌又向他們說：「我去了，你們要尋找我，你們必要死在你們的罪惡中；我所去的地方，你們不能去。」
He said therefore again unto them, I go away, and ye shall seek me, and shall die in your sin: whither I go, ye cannot come.
22 猶太人便說: 「他說: 我所去的地方，你你們不能去；莫非他要自殺嗎？」
The Jews therefore said, Will he kill himself, that he saith, Whither I go, ye cannot come?
23 耶穌向他們說: 「你們是出於下，我卻是出於上；你們是出於這個世界，我卻不是出於這個世界。
And he said unto them, Ye are from beneath; I am from above: ye are of this world; I am not of this world.
24 因此，我對你們說過: 你但要死在你們的罪惡中。的確，你們若不相信我就是那一位，你們必要死在你們的罪惡中。」
I said therefore unto you, that ye shall die in your sins: for except ye believe that I am [he], ye shall die in your sins.
25 於是，他們問耶穌說: 「你到底是誰？」耶穌回答他們說: 「難道從起初我沒有對你們講論過嗎？
They said therefore unto him, Who art thou? Jesus said unto them, Even that which I have also spoken unto you from the beginning.
26 對你們我有許多事要說，要譴責；但是派遣我來者是真實的；我由他聽來的，我就講給世界聽。」
I have many things to speak and to judge concerning you: howbeit he that sent me is true; and the things which I heard from him, these speak I unto the world.
27 們不明白他是在給他們講論父。
They perceived not that he spake to them of the Father.
28 耶穌遂說: 「當你們高舉了人子以後，你們便知道我就是那一位。我由我自己不作什麼；我所講論的，都是依照父所教訓我的。
Jesus therefore said, When ye have lifted up the Son of man, then shall ye know that I am [he], and [that] I do nothing of myself, but as the Father taught me, I speak these things.
29 派遣我來者與我在一起，他沒有留下我獨自一個，因為我常作他所喜悅的事。」
And he that sent me is with me; he hath not left me alone; for I do always the things that are pleasing to him.
30 當耶穌講這些話時，許多人便信了他。
As he spake these things, many believed on him.
31 於是，耶穌對那些信他的猶太人說: 「你們如果固守我的話，就確是我的門徒，
Jesus therefore said to those Jews which had believed him, If ye abide in my word, [then] are ye truly my disciples;
32 也會認識真理，而真理必會使你們獲得自由。」
and ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.
33 他們回答說: 「我們是亞巴郎的後裔，從未給人做過奴隸；怎麼你說：你們要成為自由的呢？」
They answered unto him, We be Abraham’s seed, and have never yet been in bondage to any man: how sayest thou, Ye shall be made free?
34 耶穌答覆說: 「我實實在在告訴你們: 凡是犯罪的，就是罪惡的奴隸。
Jesus answered them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Every one that committeth sin is the bondservant of sin.
And the bondservant abideth not in the house for ever: the son abideth for ever. (aiōn g165)
36 那麼，如果天主子使你們自由了，你們的確是自由的。
If therefore the Son shall make you free, ye shall be free indeed.
37 我知道你們是亞巴郎後裔，你們圖謀殺害我，因為你們容納不下我的話。
I know that ye are Abraham’s seed; yet ye seek to kill me, because my word hath not free course in you.
38 我說的，是我在父那裏所看見的；而你們行的，卻是你們從你們的父那裏所學習的。」
I speak the things which I have seen with [my] Father: and ye also do the things which ye heard from [your] father.
39 他們回答說: 「我們的父是亞巴郎。」耶穌對他們說: 「假如你們是亞巴郎的子女，你們就該作啞巴郎的事。
They answered and said unto him, Our father is Abraham. Jesus saith unto them, If ye were Abraham’s children, ye would do the works of Abraham.
40 如今，你們竟圖謀殺害我──這個給你們說出從天主那裏所聽到的真理的人──亞巴郎卻沒有做過言這樣的事。
But now ye seek to kill me, a man that hath told you the truth, which I heard from God: this did not Abraham.
41 你們正做你們父親的事業。」他們向他說：「我們不是由淫亂生的，我們只有一個父親: 就是天主。」
Ye do the works of your father. They said unto him, We were not born of fornication; we have one Father, [even] God.
42 耶穌回答說：「假如天主是你們的父親，你們必愛我，因為我是由天主出發而來的，並不是由我自己來的，而是那一位派遣了我。
Jesus said unto them, If God were your Father, ye would love me: for I came forth and am come from God; for neither have I come of myself, but he sent me.
43 為什麼你們不明白我的講論呢？無非是你們不肯聽我的話。
Why do ye not understand my speech? [Even] because ye cannot hear my word.
44 你們是出於你們的父親魔鬼並願意追隨你們父親的慾望。從起初，他就是殺人的兇手，不站在真理上，因為在他內沒有真理；他幾時撒謊，正出於他的本性，因為他是撒謊者，而且又是撒謊者的父親。
Ye are of [your] father the devil, and the lusts of your father it is your will to do. He was a murderer from the beginning, and stood not in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaketh a lie, he speaketh of his own: for he is a liar, and the father thereof.
45 至於我，因為我說真理，你們卻不信我。
But because I say the truth, ye believe me not.
46 你們中誰能指證我有罪？若是我說真理，為什麼你們卻不信我呢？
Which of you convicteth me of sin? If I say truth, why do ye not believe me?
47 出於天主的，必聽天主的話；你們所以不聽，因為你們不是出於天主。」
He that is of God heareth the words of God: for this cause ye hear [them] not, because ye are not of God.
48 猶太人遂向他說: 「我們說你是個撒瑪黎雅人，並附有魔鬼，豈不正對嗎？」
The Jews answered and said unto him, Say we not well that thou art a Samaritan, and hast a devil?
49 耶穌答覆說： 「我沒有附魔，我只是尊敬我的父，你們卻侮辱我。
Jesus answered, I have not a devil; but I honour my Father, and ye dishonour me.
50 然而，我不尋求我的光榮，有為我尋求而行判斷的一位。
But I seek not mine own glory: there is one that seeketh and judgeth.
Verily, verily, I say unto you, If a man keep my word, he shall never see death. (aiōn g165)
The Jews said unto him, Now we know that thou hast a devil. Abraham is dead, and the prophets; and thou sayest, If a man keep my word, he shall never taste of death. (aiōn g165)
53 難道你比我們的父親亞巴郎還大嗎？他死了，先知們也死了。你把你自己當作什麼人呢？」
Art thou greater than our father Abraham, which is dead? and the prophets are dead: whom makest thou thyself?
54 耶穌答覆說: 「我如果光榮我自己，我的光榮算不了什麼；那光榮是我的，是我的父，就是你們所稱的「我們的天主」。
Jesus answered, If I glorify myself, my glory is nothing: it is my Father that glorifieth me; of whom ye say, that he is your God;
55 你們不認識他，我卻認識他；我若說我不認識他，我便像你們一樣是個撒謊者；但是，我認識他，也遵守他的話。
and ye have not known him: but I know him; and if I should say, I know him not, I shall be like unto you, a liar: but I know him, and keep his word.
56 你們的父親亞巴郎曾歡欣喜樂地企望看到我的日子，他看見了極其高興。」
Your father Abraham rejoiced to see my day; and he saw it, and was glad.
57 猶太就對他說: 「你還沒有五十歲，就見過亞巴郎嗎？」
The Jews therefore said unto him, Thou art not yet fifty years old, and hast thou seen Abraham?
58 耶穌回答說: 「我實實在在告訴你們: 在亞巴郎出現以前我就有。」
Jesus said unto them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Before Abraham was, I am.
59 他們就拿起石頭來要向他投去；耶穌卻隱沒了，從聖殿裏出去了。
They took up stones therefore to cast at him: but Jesus hid himself, and went out of the temple.
