Acts 17
1 And whanne thei hadden passid bi Amfipolis and Appollonye, thei camen to Thessolonyk, where was a synagoge of Jewis.
保羅和西拉經過暗妃坡里、亞波羅尼亞，來到帖撒羅尼迦，在那裏有猶太人的會堂。
2 And bi custom Poul entride to hem, and bi thre sabatis he declaride to hem of scripturis,
保羅照他素常的規矩進去，一連三個安息日，本着聖經與他們辯論，
3 and openyde, and schewide that it bihofte Crist to suffre, and rise ayen fro deth, and that this is Jhesus Crist, whom Y telle to you.
講解陳明基督必須受害，從死裏復活；又說：「我所傳與你們的這位耶穌就是基督。」
4 And summe of hem bileueden, and weren ioyned to Poul and to Silas; and a greet multitude of hethene men worschipide God, and noble wymmen not a fewe.
他們中間有些人聽了勸，就附從保羅和西拉，並有許多虔敬的希臘人，尊貴的婦女也不少。
5 But the Jewis hadden enuye, and token of the comyn puple summe yuele men, and whanne thei hadden maad a cumpenye, thei moueden the citee. And thei camen to Jasouns hous, and souyten hem to brynge forth among the puple.
但那不信的猶太人心裏嫉妒，招聚了些市井匪類，搭夥成群，聳動合城的人闖進耶孫 的家，要將保羅、西拉帶到百姓那裏。
6 And whanne thei founden hem not, thei drowen Jasoun and summe britheren to the princis of the citee, and crieden, That these it ben, that mouen the world, and hidir thei camen,
找不着他們，就把耶孫和幾個弟兄拉到地方官那裏，喊叫說：「那攪亂天下的也到這裏來了，
7 whiche Jason resseyuede. And these alle don ayens the maundementis of the emperour, and seien, that Jhesu is anothir king.
耶孫收留他們。這些人都違背凱撒的命令，說另有一個王耶穌。」
8 And thei moueden the puple, and the princis of the citee, herynge these thingis.
眾人和地方官聽見這話，就驚慌了；
9 And whanne satisfaccioun was takun of Jason, and of othere, thei leten Poul and Silas go.
於是取了耶孫和其餘之人的保狀，就釋放了他們。
10 And anoon bi niyt britheren leten Silas go in to Beroan. And whanne thei camen thidur, thei entriden in to the synagoge of the Jewis.
弟兄們隨即在夜間打發保羅和西拉往庇哩亞去。二人到了，就進入猶太人的會堂。
11 But these weren the worthier of hem that ben at Thessolonik, whiche resseyueden the word with al desire, eche dai sekinge scripturis, if these thingis hadden hem so.
這地方的人賢於帖撒羅尼迦的人，甘心領受這道，天天考查聖經，要曉得這道是與不是。
12 And manye of hem bileueden and of hethen wymmen onest and men not a fewe.
所以他們中間多有相信的，又有希臘尊貴的婦女，男子也不少。
13 But whanne the Jewis in Tessalonyk hadden knowe, that also at Bero the word of God was prechid of Poul, thei camen thidir, mouynge and disturblynge the multitude.
但帖撒羅尼迦的猶太人知道保羅又在庇哩亞傳上帝的道，也就往那裏去，聳動攪擾眾人。
14 And tho anoon britheren delyuerden Poul, that he schulde go to the see; but Sylas and Tymothe dwelten there.
當時弟兄們便打發保羅往海邊去，西拉和提摩太仍住在庇哩亞。
15 And thei that ledden forth Poul, ledden hym to Atenes. And whanne thei hadden take maundement of him to Silas and to Tymothe, that ful hiyyngli thei schulden come to hym, thei wenten forth.
送保羅的人帶他到了雅典，既領了保羅的命，叫西拉和提摩太速速到他這裏來，就回去了。
16 And while Poul abood hem at Atenys, his spirit was moued in him, for he saiy the citee youun to ydolatrie.
保羅在雅典等候他們的時候，看見滿城都是偶像，就心裏着急；
17 Therfor he disputide in the synagoge with the Jewis, and with men that worschipiden God, and in the dom place, by alle daies to hem that herden.
於是在會堂裏與猶太人和虔敬的人，並每日在市上所遇見的人，辯論。
18 And summe Epeicureis, and Stoisens, and filosofris disputiden with hym. And summe seiden, What wole this sowere of wordis seie? And othere seiden, He semeth to be a tellere of newe fendis; for he telde to hem Jhesu, and the ayenrisyng.
還有伊壁鳩魯和斯多亞兩門的學士，與他爭論。有的說：「這胡言亂語的要說甚麼？」有的說：「他似乎是傳說外邦鬼神的。」這話是因保羅傳講耶穌與復活的道。
19 And thei token, and ledden hym to Ariopage, and seide, Moun we wite, what is this newe doctryne, that is seid of thee?
他們就把他帶到亞略‧巴古，說：「你所講的這新道，我們也可以知道嗎？
20 For thou bringist ynne summe newe thingis to oure eeris; therfor we wolen wite, what these thingis wolen be.
因為你有些奇怪的事傳到我們耳中，我們願意知道這些事是甚麼意思。」（
21 For alle men of Athenys and comlingis herborid yauen tent to noon other thing, but ether to seie, ethir to here, sum newe thing.
雅典人和住在那裏的客人都不顧別的事，只將新聞說說聽聽。）
22 And Poul stood in the myddil of Ariopage, and seide, Men of Athenys, bi alle thingis Y se you as veyn worschipers.
保羅站在亞略‧巴古當中，說：「眾位雅典人哪，我看你們凡事很敬畏鬼神。
23 For Y passide, and siy youre maumetis, and foond an auter, in which was writun, To the vnknowun God. Therfor which thing ye vnknowynge worschipen, this thing Y schew to you.
我遊行的時候，觀看你們所敬拜的，遇見一座壇，上面寫着『未識之神』。你們所不認識而敬拜的，我現在告訴你們。
24 God that made the world and alle thingis that ben in it, this, for he is Lord of heuene and of erthe, dwellith not in templis maad with hoond,
創造宇宙和其中萬物的上帝，既是天地的主，就不住人手所造的殿，
25 nethir is worschipid bi mannus hoondis, nether hath nede of ony thing, for he yyueth lijf to alle men, and brethinge, and alle thingis;
也不用人手服事，好像缺少甚麼；自己倒將生命、氣息、萬物，賜給萬人。
26 and made of oon al the kinde of men to enhabite on al the face of the erthe, determynynge tymes ordeyned, and termes of the dwellynge of hem,
他從一本造出萬族的人，住在全地上，並且預先定準他們的年限和所住的疆界，
27 to seke God, if perauenture thei felen hym, ether fynden, thouy he be not fer fro eche of you.
要叫他們尋求上帝，或者可以揣摩而得，其實他離我們各人不遠；
28 For in hym we lyuen, and mouen, and ben. As also summe of youre poetis seiden, And we ben also the kynde of hym.
我們生活、動作、存留，都在乎他。就如你們作詩的，有人說：『我們也是他所生的。』
29 Therfor sithen we ben the kynde of God, we schulen not deme, that godli thing is lijk gold, and siluer, ethir stoon, ethir to grauyng of craft and thouyt of man.
我們既是上帝所生的，就不當以為上帝的神性像人用手藝、心思所雕刻的金、銀、石。
30 For God dispisith the tymes of this vnkunnyng, and now schewith to men, that alle euery where doon penaunce; for that he hath ordeyned a dai,
世人蒙昧無知的時候，上帝並不監察，如今卻吩咐各處的人都要悔改。
31 in which he schal deme the world in equite, in a man in which he ordeynede, and yaf feith to alle men, and reiside hym fro deth.
因為他已經定了日子，要藉着他所設立的人按公義審判天下，並且叫他從死裏復活，給萬人作可信的憑據。」
32 And whanne thei hadden herd the ayenrysing of deed men, summe scorneden, and summe seiden, We schulen here thee eft of this thing.
眾人聽見從死裏復活的話，就有譏誚他的；又有人說：「我們再聽你講這個吧！」
33 So Poul wente out of the myddil of hem.
於是保羅從他們當中出去了。
34 But summen drowen to hym, and bileueden. Among whiche Dynyse Aropagite was, and a womman, bi name Damaris, and othere men with hem.
但有幾個人貼近他，信了主，其中有亞略‧巴古的官丟尼修，並一個婦人，名叫大馬哩，還有別人一同信從。
