路加福音 11
1 一次，耶穌在一個地方祈禱，停止以後，祂的一個門徒對祂說：「主，請教給我們祈禱，如同若翰教給了他的門徒一樣。」
And as He was praying in a certain retired place, as soon as He had done, one of his disciples said to Him, Lord, teach us to pray as John also taught his disciples.
2 耶穌給他們說：「你們時要說：父啊! 願你的名被尊為聖，願你的國來臨，
And He said unto them, when ye pray, say, "Our Father who art in heaven, hallowed be thy name; thy kingdom come; thy will be done as in heaven so also upon earth;
3 我們的日用糧，求你天天賜給我們，
give us day by day our daily bread; and forgive us our sins,
4 寬免我們的罪過，因為我們自己也寬免所有虧負我們的人；不要讓我們陷入誘惑。」
for we also forgive every one that is indebted to us; and lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from the evil one."
5 耶穌對他們說：「你們中間誰有一個朋友，半夜去他那裏，給他說：朋友，借給我三個餅罷!
And He said unto them, Which of you shall have a friend, and shall go to him at midnight, and say to him, Friend, lend me three loaves; for a friend of mine on his journey is come to me,
6 因為我的朋友行路到了我這裏，我沒有什麼可以款待他。
and I have nothing to set before him:
7 那人從裏面回答說：不要煩擾我了! 門己經關上，我的孩子們同我一起在床上，我不能起來給你。
and he from within shall answer and say, Do not be troublesome; the door is now shut, and my children are with me in bed, I cannot rise to give thee.
8 我告訴你們：他縱然不為了他是朋友的緣故，而起來給他，也要因他恬不知恥地切求而起來，給他所需要的一切。
I tell you, tho' he will not rise and give him, because he is his friend: yet because of his importunity he will rise and give him as many as he wants.
9 所以，我告訴你們：你們求，必要給你們；你們找，必要找著；你們敲，必要給你們開門。
And so I tell you, Ask and it shall be given you, seek and ye shall find, knock and it shall be opened unto you.
10 因為凡求的，就必得到；找的，就必找到；敲的，就必給他開。
For every one that asketh receiveth, and he that seeketh findeth, and to him that knocketh it shall be opened.
11 你們中間那有為父親的，兒子向他求餅，反而給他石頭呢﹖或是求魚，反將蛇當魚給他呢﹖
If a son ask bread of any father among you, will he give him a stone? and if he ask for a fish, will he instead of a fish give him a serpent? or if he ask for an egg,
12 或者求雞蛋，反將蝎子給他呢﹖
will he give him a scorpion?
13 你們縱然不善，尚且知道把好東西給你們的兒女，何況在天之父，有不更將聖神賜與求他的人嗎﹖」
If ye then, who are evil, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more shall your heavenly Father give the holy Spirit to them that ask Him?
14 耶穌驅逐一個魔鬼──他是使人瘖啞的魔鬼；他出去以後，啞吧便說出話來，群眾都驚訝不止。
And He was casting out a demon, and it was dumb: and when the demon was gone out, the dumb man spake; and the people wondered.
15 但是，其中有人說：「他是仗賴魔王貝則步驅魔。」
But some of them said, He casteth out demons by Beelzebub the prince of demons:
16 另一些人試探耶穌，向他要求一個自天而來的徵兆。
and others, to try Him, desired of Him a sign from heaven.
17 耶穌知道了他們的心意，便給他們說：「凡是一國自相紛爭，必成廢墟，一家一家的敗落。
But He who well knew their thoughts, said unto them, Every kingdom divided against itself becomes desolate, and a house against a house falleth: if Satan also be divided against himself,
18 如果撒殫自相紛爭，他的國如何能存立呢﹖因為你們說我仗賴貝耳則步驅魔。
how shall his kingdom stand? because ye say, that I cast out demons by Beelzebub.
19 如果我仗賴貝耳則步驅，你們的子弟們是仗賴誰驅魔呢﹖為此，他們將是你們的裁判者。
And if I by Beelzebub cast out demons, by whom do your own people cast them out? wherefore they shall be your judges.
20 如果我是仗賴天主的手指驅魔，那麼，天主的國已來到你們中間了。
But if I cast out demons by the power of God, you may be sure the kingdom of God is come unto you:
21 幾時壯士配帶武器，看守自己的宅舍，他的財產必能安全。
for when a strong man well-armed defends his palace, his substance is secure:
22 但是，如果有個比他強壯的來戰勝他，必會把他所依仗的一切器械都奪去，而瓜分他的贓物。
but when a stronger than he cometh upon him and conquers him, he taketh away his armour, wherein he trusted, and divideth his spoils.
23 不隨同我的，就是反對我；不同我收集的，就是分散。」
He, that is not with me, is against me; and he, that gathereth not with me, scattereth.
24 邪魔從人身上出去後，走遍乾旱之地，尋找一個安息之所，卻沒有找著；他於是說：我要回到我出來的那屋裏去。
When an impure spirit is gone out of a man, he wanders through dry desert places, seeking rest: and finding none he saith, I will return into my house, that I came out of;
25 他來到後，見裏面已打掃清潔，裝飾整齊，
and when he cometh he findeth it swept and set in order.
26 就去，另外帶了七個比自己更惡的魔鬼來，進去，住在那裏；那人末後的處境，比先前就更壞了。」
Then he goeth and taketh with him seven other spirits more wicked than himself, and they enter in and dwell there: and so the last state of that man is worse than the first.
27 耶穌說這些話的時候，人群中，有一個婦人高聲向他說：「懷過你的胎，及你所吮吸過的乳房，是有福的! 」
As He was speaking these things, a certain woman lifted up her voice from amidst the croud, and said, Happy is the womb that bare thee, and the breasts which thou didst suck!
28 耶穌卻說：「可是那聲天主的話而遵行的，更是有福的! 」
but He replied, Yea rather happy are they, that hear the word of God and keep it.
29 群眾合攏來的時候，耶穌開始說：「這一世代是一個邪惡的世代：它要求徵兆，除了約納的徵兆外，必不給它任何其他徵兆。
And when the multitudes were gathering thick together He began to say, This is a wicked generation: they demand a sign, but no sign shall be given them, except that of the prophet Jonah:
30 因為，有如約納為尼尼微人是個徵兆，將來人子為這一世代也是這樣的。
for as Jonah was a sign to the Ninevites, so shall also the Son of man be to this generation.
31 南方的女王，在審判時，將同這一世代的人起來，定他們的罪，因為她從地極來，聽撒羅滿的智慧；看，這裏有一位大於撒羅滿的!
The queen of the south shall rise up in the day of judgement against the men of this generation and condemn them: for she came from the remote parts of the earth to hear the wisdom of Solomon; and behold a greater than Solomon is here.
32 尼尼微人在審判時，將同這一代的人起來，定他們的罪，因為尼尼微人因了約納的宣講而悔改了；看，這裏有一位大於約納的! 」
And the men of Nineveh shall rise up in the judgement against this generation, and condemn it; for they repented upon the preaching of Jonas, and behold a greater than Jonas is here.
33 沒有人點燈放在窖中，或置於斗下的，而是放在燈台上，讓進來的人看見光明。
But yet no one having lighted a candle putteth it into a secret place, nor under a bushel, but on a candlestick, that they who come in may see the light.
34 你的眼睛就是身體的燈。幾時你的眼睛純潔，你全身就光明；但如果邪惡，你全身就黑暗。
The eye is the candle of the body: therefore when thine eye is clear, thy whole body also is light; but when it is bad, thy body also is dark.
35 為此，你要小心，不要叫你內裏的光成了黑暗。
Take heed therefore least the light which is in thee be darkness.
36 所以，如果你全身光明，絲毫沒有黑暗之處，一切必要光明，有如燈光照耀你一樣。」
For if thy whole body be light, having no part dark, it will be (when all enlightened) as when a candle giveth thee light by its brightness.
37 耶穌正說話的時候，有一個法利賽人請他到自己家中用飯，耶穌進去便入了席。
And as He spake, a certain pharisee asked Him to dine with him: and He went in and sat down at table.
38 那個法利賽人一看見，就怪異耶穌飯前不先洗手。
And when the pharisee saw it he wondered that He did not wash first, before dinner.
39 但主對他說：「你們法利賽人洗淨杯盤的外面，而你們心中卻滿是劫奪與邪惡。
But the Lord said unto him, ye pharisees clean the outside of the cup and of the platter, but your inward part is full of rapine and wickedness.
40 糊塗人哪! 那造外面的，不是也造了裏面嗎﹖
Senseless creatures! Did not He who made the outside, make also that which is within? give alms rather according to your ability:
41 只要把你們杯盤裏面的施捨了，那麼，一切對你們便都潔淨了。
and behold all things are clean to you.
42 但是，禍哉，你們法利賽人! 因為你們把薄荷茴香及各種菜蔬捐獻十分之一，反而將公義及愛天主的義務忽略過去：這些固然該作，那些也不可忽略。
But wo unto you pharisees, who tithe even your mint, and rue, and all your herbs, and pass by judgement and the love of God: these ought ye to practise and not to omit the others.
43 禍哉，你們法利賽人! 因為你們在會堂裏愛坐上座，在街市上愛受人致敬。
Wo unto you pharisees; for ye love the chief seat in synagogues, and salutations in public places.
44 禍哉，你們! 因為你們就如同不顯露的墳墓，人在上面行走，也不知道。」
Wo unto you scribes and pharisees, hypocrites; for ye are like graves that do not appear, and those that walk over them are not aware of them.
45 有一個法學士回答耶穌說：「師傅，你說這些話，連我們也悔辱了。」
And one of the doctors of the law answered and said unto Him, Master, in saying these things thou reproachest us also.
46 耶穌說：「禍哉，你們這些法學士! 因為你們加給人不堪負荷的重擔，而你們自己對重擔連一個指頭也不肯動一下。
And He said, Wo unto you also, ye interpreters of the law, for ye load men with insupportable burthens, and ye yourselves touch not the burthens with one of your fingers.
47 禍哉，你們! 你們修建先知的墳墓，而你們的祖先卻殺害了他們，
Wo unto you; who build the sepulchres of the prophets, and your fathers killed them.
48 可見你們證明，並讚成你們祖先所行的事，因為他們殺害了先知，而你們卻修建先知的墳墓。
Thus ye testify that ye approve of the deeds of your fathers; for they put them to death, and ye build their sepulchres.
49 為此，天主的智慧曾說過：我將要派遣先知及使者到他們那裏，其中有的，他們要殺死；有的，他們要迫害，
And therefore the wisdom of God hath said, I will send them prophets and apostles, and some of them they will kill and persecute:
50 為使從創造世界以來，所流眾先知的血，都要向這一代追討，
that the blood of all the prophets which has been shed from the foundation of the world may be required of this generation, from the blood of Abel to the blood of Zachariah,
51 從亞伯爾的血，到喪亡在祭壇與聖所之間的則加黎雅的血，的確，我告訴你們：都要向這一代追討。
who perished between the altar and the temple. Verily I tell you, it shall be required of this generation.
52 禍哉，你們法學士! 因為你們拿走了智識的鑰匙，自己不進去，那願意進去的，你們也加以阻止。」
Wo unto you interpreters of the law; for ye have taken away the key of knowledge, ye entered not in yourselves, and those that were entering in, ye hindered.
53 耶穌從那裏出來以後，經師們同法利賽人開始嚴厲追逼他，盤問他許多的事，
As He was saying these things unto them the scribes and pharisees began vehemently to attack Him, and urge Him to speak of many things,
54 窺伺他，要從他口中抓到語病。
laying snares for Him, and endeavouring to catch something out of his mouth, that they might accuse Him.
