Luke 11

1 One day in a place where Jesus had just finished praying, one of His disciples requested, “Lord, teach us to pray, just as John taught his disciples.”

1 有一天，耶稣在一个地方祷告完毕，有个门徒对祂说：“主啊，请教导我们祷告，像约翰教他的门徒一样。”

2 So Jesus told them, “When you pray, say: ‘Father, hallowed be Your name. Your kingdom come.

2 耶稣对他们说：“你们应当这样祷告， “‘天父，愿你的圣名被尊崇， 愿你的国度降临， 愿你的旨意在地上成就， 就像在天上成就一样 。

3 Give us each day our daily bread.

3 愿你天天赐给我们日用的饮食。

4 And forgive us our sins, for we also forgive everyone who sins against us. And lead us not into temptation.’”

4 求你饶恕我们的罪， 因为我们也饶恕所有得罪我们的人。 不要让我们陷入诱惑， 救我们脱离那恶者 。’”

5 Then Jesus said to them, “Suppose one of you goes to his friend at midnight and says, ‘Friend, lend me three loaves of bread,

5 耶稣又对他们说：“假设你在半夜跑去朋友家请求说，‘朋友，请借给我三个饼吧，

6 because a friend of mine has come to me on a journey, and I have nothing to set before him.’

6 因为有一位朋友远道而来，我家没有什么可以招待他。’

7 And suppose the one inside answers, ‘Do not bother me. My door is already shut, and my children and I are in bed. I cannot get up to give you anything.’

7 那个人在屋里应声说，‘请别打搅我，门已经锁上了，我和孩子们也已经上床了，我不能起来给你拿饼。’

8 I tell you, even though he will not get up to provide for him because of his friendship, yet because of the man’s persistence, he will get up and give him as much as he needs.

8 “我告诉你们，那人虽不念朋友之情，但是倘若你不肯罢休，继续请求，他最终会起来满足你的愿望。

9 So I tell you: Ask, and it will be given to you; seek, and you will find; knock, and the door will be opened to you.

9 “我告诉你们，祈求，就会给你们；寻找，就会寻见；叩门，就会给你们开门。

10 For everyone who asks receives; he who seeks finds; and to him who knocks, the door will be opened.

10 因为凡祈求的，就得到；寻找的，就寻见；叩门的，就给他开门。

11 What father among you, if his son asks for a fish, will give him a snake instead?

11 “你们做父亲的，谁有儿子求饼，却给他石头呢？ 求鱼，却给他蛇呢？

12 Or if he asks for an egg, will give him a scorpion?

12 求鸡蛋，却给他蝎子呢？

13 So if you who are evil know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will your Father in heaven give the Holy Spirit to those who ask Him!”

13 你们虽然邪恶，尚且知道把好东西给儿女，天父岂不更要赐圣灵给那些求祂的人吗？”

14 One day Jesus was driving out a demon that was mute. And when the demon was gone, the man who had been mute spoke. The crowds were amazed,

14 有一次，耶稣赶出一个使人哑巴的鬼。鬼一出去，哑巴就能说话了，众人都很惊奇。

15 but some of them said, “It is by Beelzebul, the prince of the demons, that He drives out demons.”

15 有人却说：“祂是靠鬼王别西卜赶鬼。”

16 And others tested Him by demanding a sign from heaven.

16 还有些人想试探耶稣，要求祂行个天上的神迹。

17 Knowing their thoughts, Jesus said to them, “Every kingdom divided against itself will be laid waste, and a house divided against a house will fall.

17 耶稣知道他们的心思，就说：“一个国内部自相纷争，必然灭亡；一个家内部自相纷争，必然崩溃。

18 If Satan is divided against himself, how can his kingdom stand? After all, you say that I drive out demons by Beelzebul.

18 同样，若撒旦内部自相纷争，它的国怎能维持呢？你们说我是靠别西卜赶鬼，

19 And if I drive out demons by Beelzebul, by whom do your sons drive them out? So then, they will be your judges.

19 我若是靠别西卜赶鬼，你们的子弟又是靠谁赶鬼呢？因此，他们要审判你们。

20 But if I drive out demons by the finger of God, then the kingdom of God has come upon you.

20 但我若是靠上帝的能力赶鬼，就是上帝的国已降临在你们中间了。

21 When a strong man, fully armed, guards his house, his possessions are secure.

21 “壮汉全副武装地看守自己的住宅，他的财物会很安全。

22 But when someone stronger attacks and overpowers him, he takes away the armor in which the man trusted, and then he divides up his plunder.

22 但是，来了一个比他更强壮的人，把他制服后，夺去他依靠的武装，并分了他抢的东西。

23 He who is not with Me is against Me, and he who does not gather with Me scatters.

23 谁不与我为友，就是与我为敌；谁不和我一起收聚，就是在拆散。

24 When an unclean spirit comes out of a man, it passes through arid places seeking rest and does not find it. Then it says, ‘I will return to the house I left.’

24 “有个污鬼离开了它所附的人，在干旱无水之地四处游荡，寻找安歇之处，却没有找到。于是它说，‘我要回到老地方。’

25 On its return, it finds the house swept clean and put in order.

25 它回去后，看见里面打扫得又干净又整齐，

26 Then it goes and brings seven other spirits more wicked than itself, and they go in and dwell there. And the final plight of that man is worse than the first.”

26 就去带来七个比自己更邪恶的鬼进去住在那里。那人的下场比从前更惨了。”

27 As Jesus was saying these things, a woman in the crowd raised her voice and said, “Blessed is the womb that bore You, and blessed are the breasts that nursed You!”

27 耶稣说话的时候，人群中有个妇人高喊：“生你养你的人真有福啊！”

28 But He replied, “Blessed rather are those who hear the word of God and obey it.”

28 耶稣回答说：“但那听了上帝的话又去遵行的人更有福。”

29 As the crowds were increasing, Jesus said, “This is a wicked generation. It demands a sign, but none will be given it except the sign of Jonah.

29 这时聚集的人越来越多，耶稣说：“这是一个邪恶的世代，人们只想看神迹，但除了约拿的神迹以外，再没有神迹给他们看。

30 For as Jonah was a sign to the Ninevites, so the Son of Man will be a sign to this generation.

30 正如约拿成了尼尼微人的神迹，人子也要成为这世代的神迹。

31 The Queen of the South will rise at the judgment with the men of this generation and condemn them; for she came from the ends of the earth to hear the wisdom of Solomon, and now One greater than Solomon is here.

31 “在审判的日子，南方的女王和这世代的人都要起来 ，她要定这个世代的罪，因为她曾不远千里来听所罗门王的智言慧语。看啊！这里有一位比所罗门王更大。

32 The men of Nineveh will stand at the judgment with this generation and condemn it; for they repented at the preaching of Jonah, and now One greater than Jonah is here.

32 “在审判的日子，尼尼微人要起来定这个世代的罪，因为他们听到约拿的宣告，就悔改了。看啊！这里有一位比约拿更大。

33 No one lights a lamp and puts it in a cellar or under a basket. Instead, he sets it on a stand, so those who enter can see the light.

33 “没有人点亮灯，却把它放在地窖里或斗底下，人总是把灯放在灯台上，使进来的人能看见光。

34 Your eye is the lamp of your body. When your eyes are good, your whole body also is full of light. But when they are bad, your body is full of darkness.

34 你的眼睛是身体的灯，你的眼睛明亮，全身就光明；你的眼睛昏花，全身就黑暗。

35 Be careful, then, that the light within you is not darkness.

35 因此要小心，不要让你心里的光变为黑暗。

36 So if your whole body is full of light, with no part of it in darkness, you will be radiant, as though a lamp were shining on you.”

36 你若全身光明，毫无黑暗，就必全然光明，好像明灯照耀着你一样。”

37 As Jesus was speaking, a Pharisee invited Him to dine with him; so He went in and reclined at the table.

37 耶稣说完这番话后，有一个法利赛人来请祂吃饭，祂便应邀入席。

38 But the Pharisee was surprised to see that Jesus did not first wash before the meal.

38 这位法利赛人看见耶稣饭前没有行洗手礼，十分诧异。

39 Then the Lord said, “Now you Pharisees clean the outside of the cup and dish, but inside you are full of greed and wickedness.

39 主对他说：“你们法利赛人洗净杯盘的外面，你们里面却盛满了贪婪和邪恶。

40 You fools! Did not the One who made the outside make the inside as well?

40 愚蠢的人啊，人里外不都是上帝所创造的吗？

41 But give as alms the things that are within you, and behold, everything will be clean for you.

41 只要你们发自内心地去施舍，一切对你们来说都是洁净的。

42 Woe to you Pharisees! For you pay tithes of mint, rue, and every herb, but you disregard justice and the love of God. You should have practiced the latter without neglecting the former.

42 “法利赛人啊，你们有祸了！因为你们将薄荷、芸香、各样蔬菜献上十分之一，却忽略了上帝的公义和仁爱。后者是你们本该做的，前者也不可忽略。

43 Woe to you Pharisees! For you love the chief seats in the synagogues and the greetings in the marketplaces.

43 “法利赛人啊，你们有祸了！因为你们喜欢在会堂里坐首位，又喜欢在街市上听到别人的问候。

44 Woe to you! For you are like unmarked graves, which men walk over without even noticing.”

44 你们有祸了！因为你们就像没有墓碑的坟墓，人们从上面走过也不知道。”

45 One of the experts in the law told Him, “Teacher, when You say these things, You insult us as well.”

45 一位律法教师对耶稣说：“老师，你这话把我们也侮辱了！”

46 “Woe to you as well, experts in the law!” He replied. “For you weigh men down with heavy burdens, but you yourselves will not lift a finger to lighten their load.

46 耶稣回答说：“你们这些律法教师也有祸了！因为你们把沉重难负的担子放在别人肩上，自己却连一根指头也不肯动。

47 Woe to you! For you build tombs for the prophets, but it was your fathers who killed them.

47 “你们有祸了，你们为先知修造坟墓，而他们正是被你们祖先杀害的！

48 So you are witnesses consenting to the deeds of your fathers: They killed the prophets, and you build their tombs.

48 所以你们是见证人，你们赞同祖先的行为，因为他们杀了先知，你们为先知造坟墓。

49 Because of this, the wisdom of God said, ‘I will send them prophets and apostles; some of them they will kill and others they will persecute.’

49 因此，充满智慧的上帝说，‘我要差遣先知和使徒到他们那里，有些要被杀害，有些要遭迫害’，

50 As a result, this generation will be charged with the blood of all the prophets that has been shed since the foundation of the world,

50–51 使创世以来，自亚伯一直到在祭坛和圣所之间被杀的撒迦利亚等众先知的血债，都由这个世代承担。我实在告诉你们，这些罪责都要由这个世代承担。

51 from the blood of Abel to the blood of Zechariah, who was killed between the altar and the sanctuary. Yes, I tell you, all of it will be charged to this generation.

52 Woe to you experts in the law! For you have taken away the key to knowledge. You yourselves have not entered, and you have hindered those who were entering.”

52 “律法教师啊，你们有祸了！因为你们拿走了知识的钥匙，自己不进去，还阻挡那些正要进去的人。”

53 As Jesus went on from there, the scribes and Pharisees began to oppose Him bitterly and to ply Him with questions about many things,

53 耶稣离开那里后，法利赛人和律法教师开始激烈地反对祂，用各种问题刁难祂，

54 waiting to catch Him in something He might say.

54 伺机找话柄陷害祂。
