羅馬書 11
1 再問：莫非天主擯棄了自己的人民嗎？斷然不是! 我自己就是個以色列人，出於亞巴郎的後裔，本雅明支派。
I ask then; not did reject God the people of Him? Never would it be! Also for I myself an Israelite am, of [the] seed of Abraham, of [the] tribe of Benjamin.
2 天主並沒有擯棄祂所預選的人民。難道你們不知道聖經在厄里亞篇上說了什麼，他怎樣向天主抱怨以色列？
Not did reject God the people of Him whom He foreknew. Or not know you in Elijah what says the Scripture, how he pleads with God against Israel (saying *k*)
3 『上主呀! 他們殺了你的先知，毀壞了你的祭壇，只剩下了我一個，他們還在謀害我的性命。』
Lord, the prophets of You they have killed, (and *k*) the altars of You they have torn down, and I myself and I myself were left alone, and they are seeking the life of me.
4 然而神諭告訢了他什麼？『我為我自己留下了七千人，他們沒有向巴耳屈過膝。』
But what [was] spoken to him the divine answer? I have left to Myself seven thousand men who not bowed [the] knee to Baal.
5 同樣，現在也留下了一些殘餘，即天主以恩寵所選拔的人。
Thus then also in the present time a remnant according to [the] election of grace there has been.
6 既是出於恩寵，就不是出於作為，不然，恩寵就不算為恩寵了。
If now by grace no longer no longer from works, otherwise grace no longer no longer would be grace (if *KO*) (now from works no longer no longer is grace since the work no longer no longer is work. *K*)
7 那麼還說什麼呢？以色列全體所尋求的，沒有得到，只有那些蒙選的人得到了；其餘的都頑梗不化了。
What then? What is seeking Israel, (this *N(k)O*) not it has obtained, but the elect obtained [it]; The now rest were hardened
8 正如所記載的：『天主賦予了他們沉睡的神，有眼看不見，有耳聽不見，直到今日，仍是如此。』
(even as *NK(o)*) it has been written: Gave to them God a spirit of stupor, eyes not to see and ears not to hear unto the today day.
9 達味也說過：『他們的筵席成為他們的陷阱、羅網、絆腳石和應得的報應。
And David says: should be the table of them for a snare and for a trap and for a stumbling block and for a retribution to them;
10 願他們的眼睛昏迷，不得看見。願你使他們的脊背常常彎曲。』
should be darkened the eyes of them not to see, and the backs of them (for *N(K)O*) (all [times] *N(k)O*) do bend over.
11 那麼我再問：他們失足，是要他們永久跌倒嗎？絕對不是! 而是藉著他們的過犯，使救恩臨到外邦人，為刺激他們發憤。
I say then, surely not they did stumble so that they may fall? Never would it be! But in the of them trespass [is] salvation to the Gentiles so as to provoke to jealousy them.
12 如果因他們的過犯，世界得以致富；因他們的墮落，外邦人得以致富；他們全體歸正，更將怎樣呢？
If however the trespass of them [is] riches of [the] world and the failure of them [is the] riches of [the] Gentiles, how much more the fullness of them?
13 我對你們外邦人說：我既然是外邦人的宗徒，我必要光榮我的職務；
To you (now *N(k)O*) I am speaking Gentiles; Upon as much as indeed (therefore *NO*) am I myself of [the] Gentiles apostle, the ministry of mine I magnify,
14 這樣，或許可激動我的同胞發憤，因而能拯救他們幾個人。
if at all I will provoke to jealousy of me the flesh and will save some of them.
15 如果因他們被遺棄，世界與天主和好了；那麼，他們如果蒙收納，豈不是死而復生嗎？
If for the rejection of them [is the] reconciliation of [the] world, what [will be] the acceptance only except life out from [the] dead?
16 如果所獻的初熟的麥麵是聖的，全麵團也成為聖的；如果樹根是聖的，樹枝也是聖的。
If now the firstfruit [is] holy, also the lump; and if the root [is] holy, also the branches.
17 假如有幾條橄欖樹枝被折下來，而你這枝野橄欖樹枝被接上去，同沾橄欖樹根的肥脂，
If however some of the branches were broken off, you yourself now a wild olive tree being you were grafted in among them and a fellow-partaker of the root (and *ko*) of the fatness of the olive tree you have become,
18 就不可向舊樹枝自誇。如果你想自誇，就該想不是你托著樹根，而是樹根托著你。
not do boast over the branches; If now you boast against [them], not you yourself the root support but the root you.
19 或者你要說：樹枝被折下來，正是為叫我接上去。
You will say then; Were broken off (*k*) branches that I myself may be grafted in.
20 不錯，他們因了不信而被折下來，你要因著信，才站得住。你決不可心高氣傲，反應恐懼，
Rightly so; by the unbelief they were broken off, you yourself however by faith have stood. Not high do be minded but do be afraid;
21 因為天主既然沒有憐惜了那些原有的樹枝，將來也許不憐惜你。
If for God the according to nature branches not spared, surely (perhaps *NK*) neither you (will He spare. *N(k)O*)
22 可是天主又慈善又嚴厲：天主對於跌倒了的人是嚴厲的，對於你卻是慈善的，只要你存留在祂的慈善上；不然你也必要被砍去。
Behold therefore [the] kindness and severity of God; upon indeed those having fallen (severity, *N(k)O*) toward however you (kindness *N(k)O*) (of God, *NO*) if (you shall continue in *NK(O)*) the kindness; otherwise also you yourself will be cut off.
23 至於他們，如果他們不固執於無信之中，必會再被接上去，因為天主有能力重新把他們接上去。
And they And they now only unless (they shall continue *N(k)O*) in unbelief, [then] they will be grafted in; able for is God again to graft in them;
24 其實，如果你這由本生的橄欖樹上被砍下來的，逆著性被接在好橄欖樹上，何況他們那些原生的樹枝，豈不更容易接在自己原來的橄欖樹上麼？
If for you yourself out of the according to nature were cut off a wild olive tree and contrary to nature were grafted into a cultivated olive tree, how much more these who according to nature [are] will be grafted into their own olive tree?
25 弟兄們! 免得你們自作聰明，我不願意你們不知道這項奧祕的事，就是只有一部分是執迷不悟的，直到外邦人全數進入天國為止：
Not for I want you to be ignorant, brothers, of the mystery this, that not you may be (beside *NK(o)*) yourselves wise, that a hardening in part to Israel has happened until that the fullness of the Gentiles may come in,
26 那時，全以色列必也獲救，正如經上所載：『拯救者必要來自熙雍，從雅各伯中消除不敬之罪；
and so all Israel will be saved even as it has been written: Will come out of Zion the [One] Delivering, (and *k*) He will remove ungodliness from Jacob;
27 這是我與他們所訂立的盟約：那時我要赦免他們的罪惡。』
And this [is] to them the from Me covenant, when I may take away the sins of them.
28 照福音來說，他們由於你們的緣故，成了天主的仇人；但照召選來說，由於他們祖先的緣故，他們仍是可愛的，
As regards indeed the gospel [they are] enemies on account of you As regards however the election beloved on account of the patriarchs;
29 因為天主的恩賜和召選是決不會撤回的。
Irrevocable for [are] the gifts and the calling of God.
30 就如你們以前背判了天主，如今卻因了他們的背判而蒙受了憐憫；
Just as for (and *k*) you yourselves once were disobedient to God now however were shown mercy to them through their disobedience,
31 同樣，因了你們所受的憐憫，他們如今背判，這是為叫他們今後池蒙受憐憫，
so also these now were disobedient to your mercy so that also they themselves (now *NO*) may have mercy shown [them].
Has bound up for God all in disobedience that all He may show mercy to. (eleēsē g1653)
33 啊! 天主的富饒，上智和知識，是麼高深! 他的決斷是多麼不可探察!
O [the] depth of riches both of wisdom and knowledge of God! How unsearchable the judgments of Him and untraceable the ways of Him!
34 有誰曾知道上主的心意？或者，有誰曾當過祂的顧問？
Who for has known [the] mind of [the] Lord? or who counselor of Him has been?
35 或者，有誰曾先施恩於祂，而望祂還報呢？
Or who has first given to Him, and it will be recompensed to him?
