Luke 7

1 When Jesus had concluded His discourse in the hearing of the people, He went to Capernaum.

1 耶稣向众人讲完道后，进了迦百农。

2 There a highly valued servant of a centurion was sick and about to die.

2 当时，有一个百夫长很赏识的奴仆病了，生命垂危。

3 When the centurion heard about Jesus, he sent some Jewish elders to ask Him to come and heal his servant.

3 百夫长听说耶稣的事，就托几位犹太人的长老去请耶稣来医治他的奴仆。

4 They came to Jesus and pleaded with Him earnestly, “This man is worthy to have You grant this,

4 他们便来恳求耶稣，说：“这位百夫长值得你帮助，

5 for he loves our nation and has built our synagogue.”

5 因为他爱我们的同胞，为我们建造会堂。”

6 So Jesus went with them. But when He was not far from the house, the centurion sent friends with the message: “Lord, do not trouble Yourself, for I am not worthy to have You come under my roof.

6 耶稣就跟他们去了。 快抵达时，那百夫长又请几位朋友去见耶稣，对祂说：“主啊，不用劳驾，你亲临舍下，我不敢当。

7 That is why I did not consider myself worthy to come to You. But just say the word, and my servant will be healed.

7 我自认不配去见你的面，只要你说一句话，我仆人就会痊愈。

8 For I myself am a man under authority, with soldiers under me. I tell one to go, and he goes, and another to come, and he comes. I tell my servant to do something, and he does it.”

8 因为我有上司，也有部下。我命令这个部下去，他就去；要那个部下来，他就来。我吩咐奴仆做什么，他就做什么。”

9 When Jesus heard this, He marveled at the centurion. Turning to the crowd following Him, He said, “I tell you, not even in Israel have I found such great faith.”

9 耶稣听了这番话，感到惊奇，转身对跟随祂的众人说：“我告诉你们，就是在以色列，我也从未见过信心这么大的人。”

10 And when the messengers returned to the house, they found the servant in good health.

10 派去的几位朋友回到百夫长家里，发现那奴仆已经痊愈了。

11 Soon afterward, Jesus went to a town called Nain. His disciples went with Him, accompanied by a large crowd.

11 过了不久 ，耶稣去拿因城，随行的有门徒和一大群人。

12 As He approached the town gate, He saw a dead man being carried out, the only son of his mother, and she was a widow. And a large crowd from the town was with her.

12 耶稣快到城门口时，从城里走出一队送殡的人，死者是一个寡妇的独子，有许多城中的人陪着她。

13 When the Lord saw her, He had compassion on her and said, “Do not weep.”

13 主看见那寡妇，怜悯之心油然而生，就对她说：“不要哭！”

14 Then He went up and touched the coffin, and those carrying it stood still. “Young man,” He said, “I tell you, get up!”

14 随即上前按住棺架，抬的人停了下来。耶稣说：“年轻人，我吩咐你起来！”

15 And the dead man sat up and began to speak! Then Jesus gave him back to his mother.

15 那死者就坐了起来，并开口说话。耶稣把他交给他母亲。

16 A sense of awe swept over all of them, and they glorified God. “A great prophet has appeared among us!” they said. “God has visited His people!”

16 人们都惊惧万分，把荣耀归给上帝，说：“我们中间出了一位大先知！”又说：“上帝眷顾了祂的子民！”

17 And the news about Jesus spread throughout Judea and all the surrounding region.

17 有关祂的这消息传遍了犹太和附近地区。

18 Then John’s disciples informed him about all these things.

18 约翰从自己的门徒那里获悉这些事后，

19 So John called two of his disciples and sent them to ask the Lord, “Are You the One who was to come, or should we look for someone else?”

19 就叫了两个门徒来，派他们去问主：“将要来的那位就是你吗？还是我们要等别人呢？”

20 When the men came to Jesus, they said, “John the Baptist sent us to ask, ‘Are You the One who was to come, or should we look for someone else?’”

20 他们来到耶稣面前，便问：“施洗者约翰派我们来请教你，‘将要来的那位就是你吗？还是我们要等别人呢？’”

21 At that very hour Jesus healed many people of their diseases, afflictions, and evil spirits, and He gave sight to many who were blind.

21 那时，耶稣刚治好了许多患各种疾病和被邪灵附身的人，又使许多瞎眼的能看见。

22 So He replied, “Go back and report to John what you have seen and heard: The blind receive sight, the lame walk, the lepers are cleansed, the deaf hear, the dead are raised, and the good news is preached to the poor.

22 耶稣回答说：“你们回去把所见所闻告诉约翰，就是瞎眼的看见，瘸腿的走路，麻风病人得洁净，耳聋的听见，死人复活，穷人听到福音。

23 Blessed is the one who does not fall away on account of Me.”

23 凡对我笃信不疑的人有福了！”

24 After John’s messengers had left, Jesus began to speak to the crowds about John: “What did you go out into the wilderness to see? A reed swaying in the wind?

24 约翰的门徒离去后，耶稣对众人谈论约翰，说：“你们从前去旷野要看什么呢？看随风摇动的芦苇吗？

25 Otherwise, what did you go out to see? A man dressed in fine clothes? Look, those who wear elegant clothing and live in luxury are found in palaces.

25 如果不是，你们出去到底想看什么？是看穿绫罗绸缎的人吗？那些衣着华丽、生活奢侈的人住在王宫里。

26 What then did you go out to see? A prophet? Yes, I tell you, and more than a prophet.

26 你们出去究竟想看什么？看先知吗？是的，我告诉你们，他不只是先知。

27 This is the one about whom it is written: ‘Behold, I will send My messenger ahead of You, who will prepare Your way before You.’

27 圣经上说，‘看啊，我要差遣我的使者在你前面为你预备道路。’ 这里所指的就是约翰。

28 I tell you, among those born of women there is no one greater than John, yet even the least in the kingdom of God is greater than he.”

28 我告诉你们，凡妇人所生的，没有一个比约翰大，但上帝国中最微不足道的也比他大。”

29 All the people who heard this, even the tax collectors, acknowledged God’s justice. For they had received the baptism of John.

29 众百姓和税吏听了这番话，都承认上帝是公义的，因为他们接受了约翰的洗礼。

30 But the Pharisees and experts in the law rejected God’s purpose for themselves, because they had not been baptized by John.

30 但那些法利赛人和律法教师没有接受约翰的洗礼，拒绝了上帝为他们所定的旨意。

31 “To what, then, can I compare the men of this generation? What are they like?

31 主又说：“我用什么来比拟这个世代的人呢？他们像什么呢？

32 They are like children sitting in the marketplace and calling out to one another: ‘We played the flute for you, and you did not dance; we sang a dirge, and you did not weep.’

32 他们就如孩童坐在集市上彼此呼喊， “‘我们吹娶亲的乐曲， 你们不跳舞； 我们唱送葬的哀歌， 你们不哭泣。’

33 For John the Baptist came neither eating bread nor drinking wine, and you say, ‘He has a demon!’

33 施洗者约翰来了，不吃饼，不喝酒，你们就说他被鬼附身；

34 The Son of Man came eating and drinking, and you say, ‘Look at this glutton and drunkard, a friend of tax collectors and sinners!’

34 人子来了，又吃又喝，你们就说，‘看啊，祂是个贪吃好酒之徒，与税吏和罪人为友！’

35 But wisdom is vindicated by all her children.”

35 然而，智慧通过所有顺从智慧的人显明为义。”

36 Then one of the Pharisees invited Jesus to eat with him, and He entered the Pharisee’s house and reclined at the table.

36 有一个法利赛人请耶稣到他家里吃饭，耶稣应邀赴宴。

37 When a sinful woman from that town learned that Jesus was dining there, she brought an alabaster jar of perfume.

37 那城里住着一个罪恶的女人。她听说耶稣在那法利赛人家里吃饭，就带了一玉瓶香膏进去。

38 As she stood behind Him at His feet weeping, she began to wet His feet with her tears and wipe them with her hair. Then she kissed His feet and anointed them with the perfume.

38 她站在耶稣背后，挨着祂的脚哭，泪水滴湿了祂的脚，就用自己的头发擦干，又连连亲祂的脚，并抹上香膏。

39 When the Pharisee who had invited Jesus saw this, he said to himself, “If this man were a prophet, He would know who this is and what kind of woman is touching Him—for she is a sinner!”

39 邀请耶稣的法利赛人看在眼里，心想：“这人如果是先知，就该知道摸祂的是谁，是个什么样的女人，她是个罪人。”

40 But Jesus answered him, “Simon, I have something to tell you.” “Tell me, Teacher,” he said.

40 耶稣对他说：“西门，我有话跟你说。” 西门答道：“老师，请说。”

41 “Two men were debtors to a certain moneylender. One owed him five hundred denarii, and the other fifty.

41 耶稣说：“有一个债主借给一个人五百个银币，又借给另一个人五十个银币。

42 When they were unable to repay him, he forgave both of them. Which one, then, will love him more?”

42 二人都没有能力还债，这位债主就免了他们的债务。那么，哪一位会更爱债主呢？”

43 “I suppose the one who was forgiven more,” Simon replied. “You have judged correctly,” Jesus said.

43 西门答道：“我相信是那个被免去更多债的人。” 耶稣说：“你判断得对！”

44 And turning toward the woman, He said to Simon, “Do you see this woman? When I entered your house, you did not give Me water for My feet, but she wet My feet with her tears and wiped them with her hair.

44 随后祂转向那女人，继续对西门说：“你看见这女人了吗？我到你家里来，你没有拿水给我洗脚，这女人却用眼泪湿了我的脚，还用头发擦干。

45 You did not greet Me with a kiss, but she has not stopped kissing My feet since I arrived.

45 你没有亲吻我，但我进来以后，这女人却不停地吻我的脚。

46 You did not anoint My head with oil, but she has anointed My feet with perfume.

46 你没有用油为我抹头，这女人却用香膏抹我的脚。

47 Therefore I tell you, her many sins have been forgiven, for she has loved much. But he who has been forgiven little loves little.”

47 所以我告诉你，她许多的罪都被赦免了，因此她的爱深切；那些获得赦免少的，他们的爱也少。”

48 Then Jesus said to her, “Your sins are forgiven.”

48 耶稣对那女人说：“你的罪都被赦免了。”

49 But those at the table began to say to themselves, “Who is this who even forgives sins?”

49 同席的人彼此议论说：“这人是谁？竟然能赦免人的罪！”

50 And Jesus told the woman, “Your faith has saved you; go in peace.”

50 耶稣又对那女人说：“你的信心救了你，平安地走吧！”
