路加福音 18
Chinese New Version (Traditional)
寡婦與法官的比喻
18 耶穌對他們講一個比喻,論到人必須常常祈禱,不可灰心。 2 他說:“某城裡有一個法官,不懼怕 神,也不尊敬人。 3 那城裡有一個寡婦,常常來到他那裡,說:‘求你給我伸冤,使我脫離我的對頭!’ 4 他多次不肯,後來心裡說:‘我雖然不懼怕 神,也不尊敬人, 5 只是因為這寡婦常常來麻煩我,就給她伸冤吧,免得她不斷地來纏擾我。’” 6 主說:“你們聽聽這不義的法官所說的話吧。 7 難道 神不會為晝夜呼籲他的選民伸冤嗎?難道 神會耽誤他們嗎? 8 我告訴你們,他要快快地給他們伸冤。然而人子來的時候,在世上找得到這種信心嗎?”
稅吏和法利賽人的禱告
9 耶穌向那些自恃為義、輕視別人的人,講了這個比喻: 10 “有兩個人上聖殿去祈禱,一個是法利賽人,一個是稅吏。 11 法利賽人站著,禱告給自己聽,這樣說:‘ 神啊,我感謝你,我不像別人,勒索、不義、姦淫,也不像這個稅吏。 12 我一個禮拜禁食兩次,我的一切收入都奉獻十分之一。’ 13 稅吏卻遠遠站著,連舉目望天也不敢,只捶著胸說:‘ 神啊,可憐我這個罪人!’ 14 我告訴你們,這個人回家去,比那個倒算為義了。因為高抬自己的,必要降卑;自己謙卑的,必要升高。”
讓小孩子到我這裡來(A)
15 有人抱著嬰孩到耶穌面前,要他觸摸他們。門徒看見了,就責備那些人。 16 耶穌卻叫他們過來,說:“讓小孩子到我這裡來,不要禁止他們,因為 神的國正屬於這樣的人。 17 我實在告訴你們,凡不像小孩子一樣接受 神的國的,決不能進去。”
有錢的人難進 神的國(B)
18 有一個官長問耶穌:“良善的老師,我當作甚麼,才可以承受永生?” 19 耶穌對他說:“你為甚麼稱我是良善的呢?除了 神一位以外,沒有良善的。 20 誡命你是知道的:不可姦淫,不可殺人,不可偷盜,不可作假見證,當孝敬父母。” 21 他說:“這一切我從小都遵守了。” 22 耶穌聽了,就告訴他:“你還缺少一件,應當變賣你一切所有的,分給窮人,你就必定有財寶在天上,而且你還要來跟從我。” 23 他聽見這話,非常憂愁,因為他十分富有。
24 耶穌見他這樣,就說:“富有的人要進 神的國,是多麼難哪! 25 駱駝穿過針眼,比有錢的人進 神的國還容易呢。” 26 聽見的人說:“這樣,誰可以得救呢?” 27 耶穌說:“人所不能的,在 神卻是可能的。” 28 彼得說:“你看,我們已捨棄自己所有的,跟從你了!” 29 耶穌說:“我實在告訴你們,人為 神的國撇下房屋、妻子、弟兄、父母或兒女, 30 沒有不在今世得許多倍,來世得永生的。”
第三次預言受難及復活(C)
31 耶穌把十二門徒帶到一邊,對他們說:“我們現在上耶路撒冷去,先知所寫的一切,都要成就在人子身上。 32 他要被交給外族人,受戲弄,被凌辱,他們要向他吐唾沫, 33 鞭打他,殺害他;第三日他要復活。” 34 這些話的含義對門徒是隱藏的。他們聽了,一點也不明白,不知道他說的是甚麼。
治好瞎眼的人(D)
35 耶穌走近耶利哥的時候,有一個瞎眼的人坐在路旁討飯, 36 他聽見人群經過,就問是甚麼事。 37 別人告訴他,是拿撒勒人耶穌經過。 38 他就喊叫說:“大衛的子孫耶穌啊,可憐我吧!” 39 在前頭走的人責備他,叫他不要出聲;但他越發喊叫:“大衛的子孫,可憐我吧!” 40 耶穌站住,吩咐領他過來。等他走近,就問他: 41 “你要我為你作甚麼?”他說:“主啊,叫我能看見!” 42 耶穌說:“你就看見吧!你的信使你痊愈了。” 43 他立刻看見了,就跟隨耶穌,頌讚 神。眾人看見這事,也讚美 神。
Lucas 18
Ang Biblia (1978)
18 At sinalita niya sa kanila ang isang talinghaga, na sila'y dapat (A)magsipanalanging lagi, at (B)huwag manganglupaypay;
2 Na sinasabi, May isang hukom sa isang bayan, na hindi natatakot sa Dios, at walang taong pinagpipitaganan:
3 At sa bayang yaon ay may isang babaing bao; at siya'y naparoroong madalas sa kaniya, na sinasabi, Iganti mo ako sa aking kaalit.
4 At may ilang panahon na siya'y tumatanggi: datapuwa't pagkatapos ay sinabi sa kaniyang sarili, Bagaman di ako natatakot sa Dios, at di nagpipitagan sa tao:
5 Gayon man, (C)sapagka't nililigalig ako ng baong ito, ay igaganti ko siya, baka niya ako bagabagin ng kapaparito.
6 At sinabi ng Panginoon, Pakinggan ninyo ang sinabi ng likong hukom.
7 At hindi baga, (D)igaganti ng Dios ang kaniyang mga (E)hirang, na sumisigaw sa kaniya sa araw at gabi, at siya'y (F)may pagpapahinuhod sa kanila?
8 Sinasabi ko sa inyo, (G)na sila'y madaling igaganti niya. Gayon ma'y pagparito ng Anak ng tao, makakasumpong kaya siya ng pananampalataya sa lupa?
9 At kaniyang sinalita naman ang talinghagang ito sa (H)nagsisiasa (I)sa kanilang sarili, na nangagpapanggap na sila'y matutuwid, at pinawawalang halaga ang lahat ng mga iba:
10 May dalawang lalaking (J)nagsipanhik sa templo upang magsipanalangin; ang isa'y Fariseo, at ang isa'y (K)maniningil ng buwis.
11 (L)Ang Fariseo ay nakatayo at nanalangin sa kaniyang sarili ng ganito, Dios, pinasasalamatan kita, na hindi ako gaya ng ibang mga tao, na mga manglulupig, mga liko, mga mapangalunya, o hindi man lamang gaya ng maniningil ng buwis na ito.
12 Makalawa akong (M)nagaayuno sa isang linggo; (N)nagbibigay ako ng ikapu ng lahat kong kinakamtan.
13 Datapuwa't ang maniningil ng buwis, na nakatayo sa malayo, ay (O)ayaw na itingin man lamang ang kaniyang mga mata sa langit, kundi (P)dinadagukan ang kaniyang dibdib, na sinasabi, Dios, ikaw ay mahabag sa akin, na isang makasalanan.
14 Sinasabi ko sa inyo, Nanaog at umuwi sa kaniyang bahay ang taong ito na inaaaring-ganap kay sa isa: (Q)sapagka't ang bawa't nagmamataas sa kaniyang sarili ay mabababa; datapuwa't ang nagpapakababa sa kaniyang sarili ay matataas.
15 At dinala naman nila (R)sa kaniya ang kanilang mga sanggol, upang kaniyang hipuin sila; datapuwa't nang mangakita ito ng mga alagad, ay sila'y sinaway nila.
16 Datapuwa't pinalapit sila ni Jesus sa kaniya, na sinasabi, Pabayaan ninyong magsilapit sa akin ang maliliit na bata, at huwag ninyo silang pagbawalan: sapagka't sa mga ganito nauukol ang kaharian ng Dios.
17 Katotohanang sinasabi ko sa inyo, Sinomang hindi tumanggap ng kaharian ng Dios na gaya ng isang maliit na bata, ay hindi siya papasok doon sa anomang paraan.
18 (S)At tinanong siya ng (T)isang pinuno, na sinasabi, Mabuting Guro, anong gagawin ko upang magmana ng walang hanggang buhay?
19 At sinabi sa kaniya ni Jesus, Bakit mo ako tinatawag na mabuti? walang mabuti, kundi isa, ang Dios lamang.
20 Talastas mo ang mga utos, (U)Huwag kang mangalunya, Huwag kang pumatay, Huwag kang magnakaw, Huwag kang sumaksi sa di katotohanan, Igalang mo ang iyong ama at ina.
21 At sinabi niya, Ginanap ko ang lahat ng mga bagay na ito buhat pa sa aking pagkabata.
22 At nang marinig ito ni Jesus, ay sinabi niya sa kaniya, Isang bagay pa ang kulang sa iyo: ipagbili mo ang lahat mong tinatangkilik, at ipamahagi mo sa mga dukha, at magkakaroon ka ng kayamanan sa langit: at pumarito ka, sumunod ka sa akin.
23 Datapuwa't nang marinig niya ang mga bagay na ito, siya'y namanglaw na lubha; sapagka't siya'y totoong mayaman.
24 At sa pagmamasid sa kaniya ni Jesus ay sinabi, (V)Pagkahiraphirap na makapasok sa kaharian ng Dios ang mga may kayamanan!
25 Sapagka't magaan pa sa isang kamelyo ang pumasok sa butas ng isang karayom, kay sa isang taong mayaman na pumasok sa kaharian ng Dios.
26 At sinabi ng mga nakarinig nito, Sino nga kaya ang makaliligtas?
27 Datapuwa't sinabi niya, Ang mga bagay na di mangyayari sa mga tao ay may pangyayari sa Dios.
28 At sinabi ni Pedro, Narito, iniwan namin ang aming sarili, at nagsisunod sa iyo.
29 At sinabi niya sa kanila, Katotohanang sinasabi ko sa inyo, Walang taong nagiwan ng bahay, o asawang babae, o mga kapatid, o mga magulang o mga anak, dahil sa kaharian ng Dios,
30 Na di tatanggap ng makapupung higit (W)sa panahong ito, at sa sanglibutang darating, ng walang hanggang buhay.
31 At (X)isinama niya ng bukod ang labingdalawa, at sa kanila'y sinabi, Narito, nagsisiahon tayo sa Jerusalem, at ang lahat ng mga bagay na isinulat (Y)ng mga propeta ay mangagaganap sa Anak ng tao.
32 Sapagka't siya'y (Z)ibibigay sa mga Gentil, at siya'y aalimurahin, at duduwahaginin, at luluraan.
33 At kanilang papaluin at papatayin siya: at sa ikatlong araw ay muling magbabangon siya.
34 At (AA)wala silang napagunawa sa mga bagay na ito; at ang sabing ito ay nalingid sa kanila, at hindi nila napagtalastas ang sinabi.
35 At nangyari, (AB)na nang nalalapit na sila sa Jerico, isang bulag ay nakaupo sa tabi ng daan na nagpapalimos:
36 At pagkarinig na nagdaraan ang maraming tao, ay itinanong niya kung ano ang ibig sabihin noon.
37 At sinabi nila sa kaniya, na nagdaraan si Jesus na taga Nazaret.
38 At siya'y nagsisigaw, na sinasabi, Jesus, ikaw na anak ni David, mahabag ka sa akin.
39 At siya'y sinaway ng nangasa unahan, upang siya'y tumahimik: datapuwa't siya'y lalong nagsisigaw, Ikaw na anak ni David, mahabag ka sa akin.
40 At si Jesus ay tumigil, at ipinagutos na dalhin siya sa kaniya: at nang mailapit siya, ay itinanong niya sa kaniya,
41 Anong ibig mo na sa iyo'y gawin ko? At sinabi niya, Panginoon, na tanggapin ko ang aking paningin.
42 At sinabi sa kaniya ni Jesus, Tanggapin mo ang iyong paningin: pinagaling ka ng pananampalataya mo.
43 At pagdaka'y tinanggap niya ang kaniyang paningin, at sumunod sa kaniya, na niluluwalhati ang Dios: at pagkakita nito ng (AC)buong bayan, ay nangagpuri sa Dios.
Luke 18
King James Version
18 And he spake a parable unto them to this end, that men ought always to pray, and not to faint;
2 Saying, There was in a city a judge, which feared not God, neither regarded man:
3 And there was a widow in that city; and she came unto him, saying, Avenge me of mine adversary.
4 And he would not for a while: but afterward he said within himself, Though I fear not God, nor regard man;
5 Yet because this widow troubleth me, I will avenge her, lest by her continual coming she weary me.
6 And the Lord said, Hear what the unjust judge saith.
7 And shall not God avenge his own elect, which cry day and night unto him, though he bear long with them?
8 I tell you that he will avenge them speedily. Nevertheless when the Son of man cometh, shall he find faith on the earth?
9 And he spake this parable unto certain which trusted in themselves that they were righteous, and despised others:
10 Two men went up into the temple to pray; the one a Pharisee, and the other a publican.
11 The Pharisee stood and prayed thus with himself, God, I thank thee, that I am not as other men are, extortioners, unjust, adulterers, or even as this publican.
12 I fast twice in the week, I give tithes of all that I possess.
13 And the publican, standing afar off, would not lift up so much as his eyes unto heaven, but smote upon his breast, saying, God be merciful to me a sinner.
14 I tell you, this man went down to his house justified rather than the other: for every one that exalteth himself shall be abased; and he that humbleth himself shall be exalted.
15 And they brought unto him also infants, that he would touch them: but when his disciples saw it, they rebuked them.
16 But Jesus called them unto him, and said, Suffer little children to come unto me, and forbid them not: for of such is the kingdom of God.
17 Verily I say unto you, Whosoever shall not receive the kingdom of God as a little child shall in no wise enter therein.
18 And a certain ruler asked him, saying, Good Master, what shall I do to inherit eternal life?
19 And Jesus said unto him, Why callest thou me good? none is good, save one, that is, God.
20 Thou knowest the commandments, Do not commit adultery, Do not kill, Do not steal, Do not bear false witness, Honour thy father and thy mother.
21 And he said, All these have I kept from my youth up.
22 Now when Jesus heard these things, he said unto him, Yet lackest thou one thing: sell all that thou hast, and distribute unto the poor, and thou shalt have treasure in heaven: and come, follow me.
23 And when he heard this, he was very sorrowful: for he was very rich.
24 And when Jesus saw that he was very sorrowful, he said, How hardly shall they that have riches enter into the kingdom of God!
25 For it is easier for a camel to go through a needle's eye, than for a rich man to enter into the kingdom of God.
26 And they that heard it said, Who then can be saved?
27 And he said, The things which are impossible with men are possible with God.
28 Then Peter said, Lo, we have left all, and followed thee.
29 And he said unto them, Verily I say unto you, There is no man that hath left house, or parents, or brethren, or wife, or children, for the kingdom of God's sake,
30 Who shall not receive manifold more in this present time, and in the world to come life everlasting.
31 Then he took unto him the twelve, and said unto them, Behold, we go up to Jerusalem, and all things that are written by the prophets concerning the Son of man shall be accomplished.
32 For he shall be delivered unto the Gentiles, and shall be mocked, and spitefully entreated, and spitted on:
33 And they shall scourge him, and put him to death: and the third day he shall rise again.
34 And they understood none of these things: and this saying was hid from them, neither knew they the things which were spoken.
35 And it came to pass, that as he was come nigh unto Jericho, a certain blind man sat by the way side begging:
36 And hearing the multitude pass by, he asked what it meant.
37 And they told him, that Jesus of Nazareth passeth by.
38 And he cried, saying, Jesus, thou son of David, have mercy on me.
39 And they which went before rebuked him, that he should hold his peace: but he cried so much the more, Thou son of David, have mercy on me.
40 And Jesus stood, and commanded him to be brought unto him: and when he was come near, he asked him,
41 Saying, What wilt thou that I shall do unto thee? And he said, Lord, that I may receive my sight.
42 And Jesus said unto him, Receive thy sight: thy faith hath saved thee.
43 And immediately he received his sight, and followed him, glorifying God: and all the people, when they saw it, gave praise unto God.
Luke 18
New King James Version
The Parable of the Persistent Widow
18 Then He spoke a parable to them, that men (A)always ought to pray and not lose heart, 2 saying: “There was in a certain city a judge who did not fear God nor [a]regard man. 3 Now there was a widow in that city; and she came to him, saying, [b]‘Get justice for me from my adversary.’ 4 And he would not for a while; but afterward he said within himself, ‘Though I do not fear God nor regard man, 5 (B)yet because this widow troubles me I will [c]avenge her, lest by her continual coming she weary me.’ ”
6 Then the Lord said, “Hear what the unjust judge said. 7 And (C)shall God not avenge His own elect who cry out day and night to Him, though He bears long with them? 8 I tell you (D)that He will avenge them speedily. Nevertheless, when the Son of Man comes, will He really find faith on the earth?”
The Parable of the Pharisee and the Tax Collector
9 Also He spoke this parable to some (E)who trusted in themselves that they were righteous, and despised others: 10 “Two men went up to the temple to pray, one a Pharisee and the other a tax collector. 11 The Pharisee (F)stood and prayed thus with himself, (G)‘God, I thank You that I am not like other men—extortioners, unjust, adulterers, or even as this tax collector. 12 I fast twice a week; I give tithes of all that I possess.’ 13 And the tax collector, standing afar off, would not so much as raise his eyes to heaven, but beat his breast, saying, ‘God, be merciful to me a sinner!’ 14 I tell you, this man went down to his house justified rather than the other; (H)for everyone who exalts himself will be [d]humbled, and he who humbles himself will be exalted.”
Jesus Blesses Little Children(I)
15 (J)Then they also brought infants to Him that He might touch them; but when the disciples saw it, they rebuked them. 16 But Jesus called them to Him and said, “Let the little children come to Me, and do not forbid them; for (K)of such is the kingdom of God. 17 (L)Assuredly, I say to you, whoever does not receive the kingdom of God as a little child will by no means enter it.”
Jesus Counsels the Rich Young Ruler(M)
18 (N)Now a certain ruler asked Him, saying, “Good Teacher, what shall I do to inherit eternal life?”
19 So Jesus said to him, “Why do you call Me good? No one is good but (O)One, that is, God. 20 You know the commandments: (P)‘Do not commit adultery,’ ‘Do not murder,’ ‘Do not steal,’ ‘Do not bear false witness,’ (Q)‘Honor your father and your mother.’ ”
21 And he said, “All (R)these things I have kept from my youth.”
22 So when Jesus heard these things, He said to him, “You still lack one thing. (S)Sell all that you have and distribute to the poor, and you will have treasure in heaven; and come, follow Me.”
23 But when he heard this, he became very sorrowful, for he was very rich.
With God All Things Are Possible(T)
24 And when Jesus saw that he became very sorrowful, He said, (U)“How hard it is for those who have riches to enter the kingdom of God! 25 For it is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for a rich man to enter the kingdom of God.”
26 And those who heard it said, “Who then can be saved?”
27 But He said, (V)“The things which are impossible with men are possible with God.”
28 (W)Then Peter said, “See, we have left [e]all and followed You.”
29 So He said to them, “Assuredly, I say to you, (X)there is no one who has left house or parents or brothers or wife or children, for the sake of the kingdom of God, 30 (Y)who shall not receive many times more in this present time, and in the age to come eternal life.”
Jesus a Third Time Predicts His Death and Resurrection(Z)
31 (AA)Then He took the twelve aside and said to them, “Behold, we are going up to Jerusalem, and all things (AB)that are written by the prophets concerning the Son of Man will be [f]accomplished. 32 For (AC)He will be delivered to the Gentiles and will be mocked and insulted and spit upon. 33 They will scourge Him and kill Him. And the third day He will rise again.”
34 (AD)But they understood none of these things; this saying was hidden from them, and they did not know the things which were spoken.
A Blind Man Receives His Sight(AE)
35 (AF)Then it happened, as He was coming near Jericho, that a certain blind man sat by the road begging. 36 And hearing a multitude passing by, he asked what it meant. 37 So they told him that Jesus of Nazareth was passing by. 38 And he cried out, saying, “Jesus, (AG)Son of David, have mercy on me!”
39 Then those who went before warned him that he should be quiet; but he cried out all the more, “Son of David, have mercy on me!”
40 So Jesus stood still and commanded him to be brought to Him. And when he had come near, He asked him, 41 saying, “What do you want Me to do for you?”
He said, “Lord, that I may receive my sight.”
42 Then Jesus said to him, “Receive your sight; (AH)your faith has made you well.” 43 And immediately he received his sight, and followed Him, (AI)glorifying God. And all the people, when they saw it, gave praise to God.
