John 12

1 Six days before the Passover, Jesus came to Bethany, the hometown of Lazarus, whom He had raised from the dead.

1 逾越节前六日，耶稣来到伯大尼，就是他叫拉撒路从死里复活之处。

2 So they hosted a dinner for Jesus there. Martha served, and Lazarus was among those reclining at the table with Him.

2 有人在那里给耶稣预备筵席；马大伺候，拉撒路也在那同耶稣坐席的人中。

3 Then Mary took about a pint of expensive perfume, made of pure nard, and she anointed Jesus’ feet and wiped them with her hair. And the house was filled with the fragrance of the perfume.

3 马利亚就拿着一斤极贵的真哪哒香膏，抹耶稣的脚，又用自己头发去擦，屋里就满了膏的香气。

4 But one of His disciples, Judas Iscariot, who was going to betray Him, asked,

4 有一个门徒，就是那将要卖耶稣的加略人犹大，

5 “Why wasn’t this perfume sold for three hundred denarii and the money given to the poor?”

5 说：「这香膏为什么不卖三十两银子周济穷人呢？」

6 Judas did not say this because he cared about the poor, but because he was a thief. As keeper of the money bag, he used to take from what was put into it.

6 他说这话，并不是挂念穷人，乃因他是个贼，又带着钱囊，常取其中所存的。

7 “Leave her alone,” Jesus replied. “She has kept this perfume in preparation for the day of My burial.

7 耶稣说：「由她吧！她是为我安葬之日存留的。

8 The poor you will always have with you, but you will not always have Me.”

8 因为常有穷人和你们同在，只是你们不常有我。」

9 Meanwhile a large crowd of Jews learned that Jesus was there. And they came not only because of Him, but also to see Lazarus, whom He had raised from the dead.

9 有许多犹太人知道耶稣在那里，就来了，不但是为耶稣的缘故，也是要看他从死里所复活的拉撒路。

10 So the chief priests made plans to kill Lazarus as well,

10 但祭司长商议连拉撒路也要杀了；

11 for on account of him many of the Jews were deserting them and believing in Jesus.

11 因有好些犹太人为拉撒路的缘故，回去信了耶稣。

12 The next day the great crowd that had come to the feast heard that Jesus was coming to Jerusalem.

12 第二天，有许多上来过节的人听见耶稣将到耶路撒冷，

13 They took palm branches and went out to meet Him, shouting: “Hosanna!” “Blessed is He who comes in the name of the Lord!” “Blessed is the King of Israel!”

13 就拿着棕树枝出去迎接他，喊着说： 和散那！ 奉主名来的以色列王是应当称颂的！

14 Finding a young donkey, Jesus sat on it, as it is written:

14 耶稣得了一个驴驹，就骑上，如经上所记的说：

15 “Do not be afraid, O Daughter of Zion. See, your King is coming, seated on the colt of a donkey.”

15 锡安的民 哪，不要惧怕！ 你的王骑着驴驹来了。

16 At first His disciples did not understand these things, but after Jesus was glorified they remembered what had been done to Him, and they realized that these very things had also been written about Him.

16 这些事门徒起先不明白，等到耶稣得了荣耀以后才想起这话是指着他写的，并且众人果然向他这样行了。

17 Meanwhile, many people who had been with Jesus when He called Lazarus from the tomb and raised him from the dead continued to testify.

17 当耶稣呼唤拉撒路，叫他从死复活出坟墓的时候，同耶稣在那里的众人就作见证。

18 That is also why the crowd went out to meet Him, because they heard that He had performed this sign.

18 众人因听见耶稣行了这神迹，就去迎接他。

19 Then the Pharisees said to one another, “You can see that this is doing you no good. Look how the whole world has gone after Him!”

19 法利赛人彼此说：「看哪，你们是徒劳无益，世人都随从他去了。」

20 Now there were some Greeks among those who went up to worship at the feast.

20 那时，上来过节礼拜的人中，有几个希腊人。

21 They came to Philip, who was from Bethsaida in Galilee, and requested of him, “Sir, we want to see Jesus.”

21 他们来见加利利、伯赛大的腓力，求他说：「先生，我们愿意见耶稣。」

22 Philip relayed this appeal to Andrew, and both of them went and told Jesus.

22 腓力去告诉安得烈，安得烈同腓力去告诉耶稣。

23 But Jesus replied, “The hour has come for the Son of Man to be glorified.

23 耶稣说：「人子得荣耀的时候到了。

24 Truly, truly, I tell you, unless a kernel of wheat falls to the ground and dies, it remains only a seed. But if it dies, it bears much fruit.

24 我实实在在地告诉你们，一粒麦子不落在地里死了，仍旧是一粒，若是死了，就结出许多子粒来。

25 Whoever loves his life will lose it, but whoever hates his life in this world will keep it for eternal life.

25 爱惜自己生命的，就失丧生命；在这世上恨恶自己生命的，就要保守生命到永生。

26 If anyone serves Me, he must follow Me; and where I am, My servant will be as well. If anyone serves Me, the Father will honor him.

26 若有人服事我，就当跟从我；我在哪里，服事我的人也要在那里；若有人服事我，我父必尊重他。」

27 Now My soul is troubled, and what shall I say? ‘Father, save Me from this hour’? No, it is for this purpose that I have come to this hour.

27 「我现在心里忧愁，我说什么才好呢？父啊，救我脱离这时候；但我原是为这时候来的。

28 Father, glorify Your name!” Then a voice came from heaven: “I have glorified it, and I will glorify it again.”

28 父啊，愿你荣耀你的名！」当时就有声音从天上来，说：「我已经荣耀了我的名，还要再荣耀。」

29 The crowd standing there heard it and said that it had thundered. Others said that an angel had spoken to Him.

29 站在旁边的众人听见，就说：「打雷了。」还有人说：「有天使对他说话。」

30 In response, Jesus said, “This voice was not for My benefit, but yours.

30 耶稣说：「这声音不是为我，是为你们来的。

31 Now judgment is upon this world; now the prince of this world will be cast out.

31 现在这世界受审判，这世界的王要被赶出去。

32 And I, when I am lifted up from the earth, will draw everyone to Myself.”

32 我若从地上被举起来，就要吸引万人来归我。」

33 He said this to indicate the kind of death He was going to die.

33 耶稣这话原是指着自己将要怎样死说的。

34 The crowd replied, “We have heard from the Law that the Christ will remain forever. So how can You say that the Son of Man must be lifted up? Who is this Son of Man?”

34 众人回答说：「我们听见律法上有话说，基督是永存的，你怎么说『人子必须被举起来』呢？这人子是谁呢？」

35 Then Jesus told them, “For a little while longer, the Light will be among you. Walk while you have the Light, so that darkness will not overtake you. The one who walks in the darkness does not know where he is going.

35 耶稣对他们说：「光在你们中间还有不多的时候，应当趁着有光行走，免得黑暗临到你们；那在黑暗里行走的，不知道往何处去。

36 While you have the Light, believe in the Light, so that you may become sons of light.” After Jesus had spoken these things, He went away and was hidden from them.

36 你们应当趁着有光，信从这光，使你们成为光明之子。」 耶稣说了这话，就离开他们隐藏了。

37 Although Jesus had performed so many signs in their presence, they still did not believe in Him.

37 他虽然在他们面前行了许多神迹，他们还是不信他。

38 This was to fulfill the word of Isaiah the prophet: “Lord, who has believed our message? And to whom has the arm of the Lord been revealed?”

38 这是要应验先知以赛亚的话，说： 主啊，我们所传的有谁信呢？ 主的膀臂向谁显露呢？

39 For this reason they were unable to believe. For again, Isaiah says:

39 他们所以不能信，因为以赛亚又说：

40 “He has blinded their eyes and hardened their hearts, so that they cannot see with their eyes, and understand with their hearts, and turn, and I would heal them.”

40 主叫他们瞎了眼， 硬了心， 免得他们眼睛看见， 心里明白，回转过来， 我就医治他们。

41 Isaiah said these things because he saw Jesus’ glory and spoke about Him.

41 以赛亚因为看见他的荣耀，就指着他说这话。

42 Nevertheless, many of the leaders believed in Him. But because of the Pharisees they did not confess Him, for fear that they would be put out of the synagogue.

42 虽然如此，官长中却有好些信他的，只因法利赛人的缘故，就不承认，恐怕被赶出会堂。

43 For they loved praise from men more than praise from God.

43 这是因他们爱人的荣耀过于爱 神的荣耀。

44 Then Jesus cried out, “Whoever believes in Me does not believe in Me alone, but in the One who sent Me.

44 耶稣大声说：「信我的，不是信我，乃是信那差我来的。

45 And whoever sees Me sees the One who sent Me.

45 人看见我，就是看见那差我来的。

46 I have come into the world as a light, so that no one who believes in Me should remain in darkness.

46 我到世上来，乃是光，叫凡信我的，不住在黑暗里。

47 As for anyone who hears My words and does not keep them, I do not judge him. For I have not come to judge the world, but to save the world.

47 若有人听见我的话不遵守，我不审判他。我来本不是要审判世界，乃是要拯救世界。

48 There is a judge for the one who rejects Me and does not receive My words: The word that I have spoken will judge him on the last day.

48 弃绝我、不领受我话的人，有审判他的—就是我所讲的道在末日要审判他。

49 I have not spoken on My own, but the Father who sent Me has commanded Me what to say and how to say it.

49 因为我没有凭着自己讲，惟有差我来的父已经给我命令，叫我说什么，讲什么。

50 And I know that His command leads to eternal life. So I speak exactly what the Father has told Me to say.”

50 我也知道他的命令就是永生。故此，我所讲的话正是照着父对我所说的。」
