Acts 14
1 And it came to pass in Iconium that they entered together into the synagogue of the Jews, and so spake that a great multitude of both Jews and Greeks believed.
們在依科尼雍，還是照樣進猶太人的會堂講道，以致有很多猶太人和希臘人信從了。
2 But the Jews who did not believe stirred up the minds of [those of] the nations and made [them] evil-affected against the brethren.
那些固執不信的猶太人，卻挑撥並刺激外邦人的心，來相反弟兄們。
3 They stayed therefore a good while, speaking boldly, [confiding] in the Lord, who gave witness to the word of his grace, giving signs and wonders to be done by their hands.
他們在那裏逗留了一些日子，依賴主放心大膽地講道。主為證明他們所宣講的恩寵的話是真實的，藉他們的手顯了徵兆和奇蹟。
4 And the multitude of the city was divided, and some were with the Jews and some with the apostles.
城中的群眾就分裂了：有的支持猶太人，有的支持宗徒。
5 And when an assault was making, both of [those of] the nations and [the] Jews with their rulers, to use [them] ill and stone them,
當外邦人和猶太人連同他們的官長蓄意侮辱他們，和用石頭砸死他們的時候，
6 they, being aware of it, fled to the cities of Lycaonia, Lystra and Derbe, and the surrounding country,
他們一聽說，就逃往呂考尼雅的呂斯特辣、德爾貝兩座城和周圍的地方去了，
7 and there they were announcing the glad tidings.
在那裏傳揚福音。
8 And a certain man in Lystra, impotent in his feet, sat, [being] lame from his mother's womb, who had never walked.
在呂斯特辣有一個人，患軟腳病，常坐著，由母胎中即是跛子，總沒有行走過。
9 This [man] heard Paul speaking, who, fixing his eyes on him, and seeing that he had faith to be healed,
這人聽保祿講道；保祿注目看他，見他有信心，可得痊癒，
10 said with a loud voice, Rise up straight upon thy feet: and he sprang up and walked.
便大聲說道：「直直地站起來！」這人遂跳起來行走。
11 But the crowds, who saw what Paul had done, lifted up their voices in Lycaonian, saying, The gods, having made themselves like men, are come down to us.
群眾看見保祿所行的，就大聲用呂考尼雅話說：「神取了人形，降到我們這裏了!」
12 And they called Barnabas Jupiter, and Paul Mercury, because he took the lead in speaking.
他們遂稱巴爾納伯為則烏斯，稱保祿為赫爾默斯，因為它是主要發言人。
13 And the priest of Jupiter who was before the city, having brought bulls and garlands to the gates, would have done sacrifice along with the crowds.
在城關的則烏斯的司祭，就帶著公牛與花圈來到大門前，要同群眾一起獻祭。
14 But the apostles Barnabas and Paul, having heard [it], rent their garments, and rushed out to the crowd, crying
巴爾納伯和保祿宗徒聽說這事，就撕裂了自己的衣服，跑到群眾中，喊著，
15 and saying, Men, why do ye these things? We also are men of like passions with you, preaching to you to turn from these vanities to the living God, who made the heaven, and the earth, and the sea, and all things in them;
說道：「人哪！你們這是作什麼﹖我們也是人啊！與你們有同樣的性情；我們只是給你們傳揚福音，為叫你們離開這些虛無之物，歸依生活的天主，是他創造了天地海洋和其中的一切。
16 who in the past generations suffered all the nations to go in their own ways,
他在過去的世代，容忍了萬民各行其道；
17 though indeed he did not leave himself without witness, doing good, and giving to you from heaven rain and fruitful seasons, filling your hearts with food and gladness.
但他並不是沒有以善行為自己作證，他從天上給你們賜了雨和結實的季節，以食物和喜樂充滿你們的心。」
18 And saying these things, they with difficulty kept the crowds from sacrificing to them.
說了這些話，纔算阻住了群眾，沒有向他們獻祭。
19 But there came Jews from Antioch and Iconium, and having persuaded the crowds and stoned Paul, drew him out of the city, supposing him to have died.
卻有些猶太人，從安提約基雅和依科尼雍來，挑唆群眾；群眾用石頭砸了保祿，以為他死了，就把他拉到城外。
20 But while the disciples encircled him, he rose up and entered into the city. And on the morrow he went away with Barnabas to Derbe.
但門徒們一圍到他跟前，他就起來進了城，第二天同巴爾納伯起身往德爾貝去了。
21 And having announced the glad tidings to that city, and having made many disciples, they returned to Lystra, and Iconium, and Antioch,
他們向那城傳揚福音，使許多人成為門徒，以後回到呂斯特辣、依科尼雍和安提約基雅，
22 establishing the souls of the disciples, exhorting them to abide in the faith, and that through many tribulations we must enter into the kingdom of God.
到處堅固門徒的心，鼓勵他們堅持信仰，說我們必須經過許多困難，纔能進入天主的國。
23 And having chosen them elders in each assembly, having prayed with fastings, they committed them to the Lord, on whom they had believed.
二人在各教會給他們選立了長老，在祈禱禁食以後，把他們託付於他們所信仰的主。
24 And having passed through Pisidia they came to Pamphylia,
以後，他們又經過丕息狄雅來到旁非里雅，
25 and having spoken the word in Perga, they came down to Attalia;
在培爾革宣講道理以後，下到阿塔肋雅，
26 and thence they sailed away to Antioch, whence they had been committed to the grace of God for the work which they had fulfilled.
又從那裏乘船赴安提約基雅。他們原來是從那裏被託於天主的恩寵，作現在已完成的工作。
27 And having arrived, and having brought together the assembly, they related to them all that God had done with them, and that he had opened a door of faith to the nations.
他們一到，就聚集會眾，報告天主偕同他們所行的一切大事，和怎樣給外邦人打開了信德的門。
28 And they stayed no little time with the disciples.
二人就在那裏同門徒們住了不少時日。
