Acts 2

1 When the day of Pentecost came, they were all together in one place.

1 五旬节那天，门徒都聚集在一起。

2 Suddenly a sound like a mighty rushing wind came from heaven and filled the whole house where they were sitting.

2 忽然，天上发出一阵响声，好像狂风呼啸而过，充满了他们所在的房子，

3 They saw tongues like flames of fire that separated and came to rest on each of them.

3 又有火焰般的舌头显现出来，分别落在各人的头上。

4 And they were all filled with the Holy Spirit and began to speak in other tongues as the Spirit enabled them.

4 大家都被圣灵充满，靠着圣灵所赐的能力说起别的语言来。

5 Now there were dwelling in Jerusalem God-fearing Jews from every nation under heaven.

5 当时耶路撒冷住着从各国回来的虔诚的犹太人。

6 And when this sound rang out, a crowd came together in bewilderment, because each one heard them speaking his own language.

6 众人听见这阵响声便赶过来，听见门徒在说他们各自的语言，都十分纳闷，

7 Astounded and amazed, they asked, “Are not all these who are speaking Galileans?

7 惊诧地说：“看啊！这些说话的不都是加利利人吗？

8 How is it then that each of us hears them in his own native language?

8 怎么会说我们各自的家乡话呢？

9 Parthians, Medes, and Elamites; residents of Mesopotamia, Judea and Cappadocia, Pontus and Asia,

9 我们有帕提亚人、玛代人、以拦人，以及住在美索不达米亚、犹太、加帕多迦、本都、亚细亚、

10 Phrygia and Pamphylia, Egypt and the parts of Libya near Cyrene; visitors from Rome,

10 弗吕迦、旁非利亚、埃及和靠近古利奈的利比亚地区的人，还有从罗马来的犹太人和改信犹太教的人、

11 both Jews and converts to Judaism; Cretans and Arabs—we hear them declaring the wonders of God in our own tongues!”

11 克里特人和阿拉伯人。我们都听见他们在用我们各自的语言诉说上帝的大能作为！”

12 Astounded and perplexed, they asked one another, “What does this mean?”

12 他们都大感惊奇和困惑，彼此议论说：“这到底是怎么回事？”

13 But others mocked them and said, “They are drunk on new wine!”

13 有些人就讥笑说：“他们不过是被新酒灌醉了！”

14 Then Peter stood up with the Eleven, lifted up his voice, and addressed the crowd: “Men of Judea and all who dwell in Jerusalem, let this be known to you, and listen carefully to my words.

14 彼得和其他十一位使徒都站起来，他大声对众人说：“各位犹太同胞和住在耶路撒冷的人啊，请留心听！我告诉你们这是怎么回事。

15 These men are not drunk, as you suppose. It is only the third hour of the day!

15 你们以为这些人是醉了，其实不是，因为现在才早上九点钟。

16 No, this is what was spoken by the prophet Joel:

16 你们眼前看见的正是先知约珥所说的，

17 ‘In the last days, God says, I will pour out My Spirit on all people. Your sons and daughters will prophesy, your young men will see visions, your old men will dream dreams.

17 “‘上帝说，在末后的日子， 我要将我的灵浇灌所有的人， 你们的儿女要说预言， 青年要见异象， 老人要做异梦。

18 Even on My menservants and maidservants I will pour out My Spirit in those days, and they will prophesy.

18 那时，我要将我的灵浇灌我的奴仆和婢女， 他们都要说预言。

19 I will show wonders in the heavens above and signs on the earth below, blood and fire and billows of smoke.

19 我要在天上显异兆； 我要在地上行神迹，有血、有火、有浓烟。

20 The sun will be turned to darkness, and the moon to blood, before the coming of the great and glorious Day of the Lord.

20 太阳要变得昏暗， 月亮要变得血红。 这都要发生在主伟大荣耀的日子来临以前。

21 And everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved.’

21 那时，凡求告主名的人都必得救。’

22 Men of Israel, listen to this message: Jesus of Nazareth was a man certified by God to you by miracles, wonders, and signs, which God did among you through Him, as you yourselves know.

22 “各位以色列人啊，请听我说。上帝借着拿撒勒人耶稣在你们中间行了异能、奇事和神迹，以证明这人是祂委派的，这是你们自己所知道的。

23 He was delivered up by God’s set plan and foreknowledge, and you, by the hands of the lawless, put Him to death by nailing Him to the cross.

23 耶稣按上帝的定旨和先见被交在你们手里，你们借着邪恶之人的手把祂钉死在十字架上了。

24 But God raised Him from the dead, releasing Him from the agony of death, because it was impossible for death to keep Him in its grip.

24 但上帝为祂解除了死亡的痛苦，使祂从死里复活，因为祂不可能被死亡拘禁。

25 David says about Him: ‘I saw the Lord always before me; because He is at my right hand, I will not be shaken.

25 大卫曾这样谈论耶稣， “‘我看见主常在我面前， 祂在我右边，我必不动摇。

26 Therefore my heart is glad and my tongue rejoices; my body also will dwell in hope,

26 因此我的心欢喜，我的口颂赞， 我的身体也要活在盼望中。

27 because You will not abandon my soul to Hades, nor will You let Your Holy One see decay.

27 因为你不会把我的灵魂撇在阴间， 也不会让你的圣者身体朽坏。

28 You have made known to me the paths of life; You will fill me with joy in Your presence.’

28 你已把生命之路指示我， 叫我在你面前充满喜乐。’

29 Brothers, I can tell you with confidence that the patriarch David died and was buried, and his tomb is with us to this day.

29 “弟兄们，我肯定地对你们说，先祖大卫死了，埋葬了，他的坟墓至今还在我们这里。

30 But he was a prophet and knew that God had promised him on oath that He would place one of his descendants on his throne.

30 大卫是先知，知道上帝曾对他起誓——要从他的后裔中选立一人继承他的王位。

31 Foreseeing this, David spoke about the resurrection of the Christ, that He was not abandoned to Hades, nor did His body see decay.

31 他预先知道这事，讲到基督的复活，说，‘祂的灵魂不会被撇在阴间，祂的身体也不会朽坏。’

32 God has raised this Jesus to life, to which we are all witnesses.

32 上帝已经使这位耶稣复活了！我们都是这件事的见证人。

33 Exalted, then, to the right hand of God, He has received from the Father the promised Holy Spirit and has poured out what you now see and hear.

33 现在祂被提升到上帝的右边，从天父领受了所应许的圣灵之后，便将圣灵浇灌下来，你们今天也耳闻目睹了。

34 For David did not ascend into heaven, but he himself says: ‘The Lord said to my Lord, “Sit at My right hand

34 大卫并没有升到天上，但他曾说， “‘主对我主说， 你坐在我的右边，

35 until I make Your enemies a footstool for Your feet.”’

35 等我使你的仇敌成为你的脚凳。’

36 Therefore let all Israel know with certainty that God has made this Jesus, whom you crucified, both Lord and Christ!”

36 “所以，全体以色列人啊！你们应当确实地知道，上帝已经立这位被你们钉在十字架上的耶稣为主，为基督了。”

37 When the people heard this, they were cut to the heart and asked Peter and the other apostles, “Brothers, what shall we do?”

37 他们听了这番话，觉得扎心，就对彼得和其他使徒说：“弟兄们，我们该怎么办呢？”

38 Peter replied, “Repent and be baptized, every one of you, in the name of Jesus Christ for the forgiveness of your sins, and you will receive the gift of the Holy Spirit.

38 彼得说：“你们每一个人都要悔改，奉耶稣基督的名受洗，使你们的罪得到赦免，你们就必领受上帝所赐的圣灵。

39 This promise belongs to you and your children and to all who are far off—to all whom the Lord our God will call to Himself.”

39 因为这应许是给你们和你们的儿女，以及远方的人，就是所有被主——我们的上帝呼召的人。”

40 With many other words he testified, and he urged them, “Be saved from this corrupt generation.”

40 然后，彼得还讲了其他许多话警戒、劝勉他们，说：“你们要救自己脱离这邪恶的世代。”

41 Those who embraced his message were baptized, and about three thousand were added to the believers that day.

41 结果，那天约有三千人相信了他传的道，接受了洗礼。

42 They devoted themselves to the apostles’ teaching and to the fellowship, to the breaking of bread and to prayer.

42 他们都一心遵守使徒的教导，一起团契、掰饼、祷告。

43 A sense of awe came over everyone, and the apostles performed many wonders and signs.

43 大家都满心敬畏上帝。使徒又行了很多神迹奇事。

44 All the believers were together and had everything in common.

44 信徒聚在一起，共用所有的东西。

45 Selling their possessions and goods, they shared with anyone who was in need.

45 他们把田产家业变卖了，按照各人的需要分给大家。

46 With one accord they continued to meet daily in the temple courts and to break bread from house to house, sharing their meals with gladness and sincerity of heart,

46 他们天天同心合意地聚集在圣殿里敬拜上帝，又在各人家中掰饼聚会，怀着欢喜和慷慨的心分享食物，

47 praising God and enjoying the favor of all the people. And the Lord added to their number daily those who were being saved.

47 赞美上帝，受到众人的喜爱。主使得救的人数与日俱增。
