Matthew 10

1 And calling His twelve disciples to Him, Jesus gave them authority over unclean spirits, so that they could drive them out and heal every disease and sickness.

1 耶稣叫了十二位门徒来，赐他们权柄，能赶出污鬼、医治各样的疾病。

2 These are the names of the twelve apostles: first Simon, called Peter, and his brother Andrew; James son of Zebedee, and his brother John;

2 以下是这十二位使徒的名字： 首先是西门，又名彼得，还有彼得的兄弟安得烈、西庇太的儿子雅各、雅各的兄弟约翰、

3 Philip and Bartholomew; Thomas and Matthew the tax collector; James son of Alphaeus, and Thaddaeus;

3 腓力、巴多罗买、多马、税吏马太、亚勒腓的儿子雅各、达太、

4 Simon the Zealot, and Judas Iscariot, who betrayed Jesus.

4 激进党人 西门和出卖耶稣的加略人犹大。

5 These twelve Jesus sent out with the following instructions: “Do not go onto the road of the Gentiles or enter any town of the Samaritans.

5 耶稣差遣这十二个人出去，嘱咐他们：“外族人的地方不要去，撒玛利亚人的城镇也不要进，

6 Go rather to the lost sheep of Israel.

6 要到以色列人当中寻找迷失的羊。

7 As you go, preach this message: ‘The kingdom of heaven is near.’

7 “你们要边走边传，‘天国临近了！’

8 Heal the sick, raise the dead, cleanse the lepers, drive out demons. Freely you have received; freely give.

8 要医治病人，叫死人复活，使麻风病人得洁净，赶走邪灵。你们白白地得来，也应当白白地给人。

9 Do not take along any gold or silver or copper in your belts.

9 出门时钱袋里不要带金、银、铜币，

10 Take no bag for the road, or second tunic, or sandals, or staff; for the worker is worthy of his provisions.

10 不要带行李、备用的衣服、鞋或手杖，因为工人理应得到供应。

11 Whatever town or village you enter, find out who is worthy there and stay at his house until you move on.

11 你们无论到哪座城、哪个村，要在那里寻找配接待你们的人，然后住在他家，一直住到离开。

12 As you enter the home, greet its occupants.

12 你们进他家的时候，要祝他家平安。

13 If the home is worthy, let your peace rest on it, but if it is not, let your peace return to you.

13 如果那家配得平安，你们的平安必临到那家；如果那家不配，平安仍归给你们。

14 And if anyone will not welcome you or heed your words, shake the dust off your feet when you leave that home or town.

14 如果有人不接待你们，不听你们传的道，你们离开那家或那城时，要跺掉脚上的尘土。

15 Truly I tell you, it will be more bearable for Sodom and Gomorrah on the day of judgment than for that town.

15 我实在告诉你们，在审判之日，那城将比所多玛和蛾摩拉受更重的刑罚！

16 Behold, I am sending you out like sheep among wolves; therefore be as shrewd as snakes and as innocent as doves.

16 “听着，我差你们出去，就好像把羊送入狼群。所以，你们要像蛇一样机灵，像鸽子一样驯良。

17 But beware of men, for they will hand you over to their councils and flog you in their synagogues.

17 “你们要小心谨慎，因为你们将被送上法庭，并在会堂里被鞭打。

18 On My account you will be brought before governors and kings as witnesses to them and to the Gentiles.

18 你们要因我的缘故被带到官长和君王面前，在他们和外族人面前为我做见证。

19 But when they hand you over, do not worry about how to respond or what to say. In that hour you will be given what to say.

19 当你们被押去受审时，不要顾虑如何应对，或说什么话，那时必赐给你们当说的话。

20 For it will not be you speaking, but the Spirit of your Father speaking through you.

20 因为那时候说话的不是你们自己，而是你们父的灵借着你们说话。

21 Brother will betray brother to death, and a father his child; children will rise against their parents and have them put to death.

21 “那时，人将把自己的弟兄置于死地，父亲将把儿子置于死地，儿女将反叛父母，置他们于死地。

22 You will be hated by everyone because of My name, but the one who perseveres to the end will be saved.

22 你们将为我的名被众人憎恨，但坚忍到底的必定得救。

23 When they persecute you in one town, flee to the next. Truly I tell you, you will not reach all the towns of Israel before the Son of Man comes.

23 你们如果在一个地方遭迫害，就逃到另一个地方。我实在告诉你们，没等你们走遍以色列的城镇，人子就来了。

24 A disciple is not above his teacher, nor a servant above his master.

24 “学生不能高过老师，奴仆也不能大过主人。

25 It is enough for a disciple to be like his teacher, and a servant like his master. If the head of the house has been called Beelzebul, how much more the members of his household!

25 学生顶多和老师一样，奴仆顶多和主人一样。连家主都被骂成是别西卜 ，更何况祂的家人呢？

26 So do not be afraid of them. For there is nothing concealed that will not be disclosed, and nothing hidden that will not be made known.

26 “不要害怕那些迫害你们的人。因为掩盖的事终会暴露出来，隐藏的秘密终会被人知道。

27 What I tell you in the dark, speak in the daylight; what is whispered in your ear, proclaim from the housetops.

27 你们要把我暗中告诉你们的公布于众，你们要把听到的耳语在屋顶上传扬。

28 Do not be afraid of those who kill the body but cannot kill the soul. Instead, fear the One who can destroy both soul and body in hell.

28 那些只能杀害身体，不能毁灭灵魂的，不用怕他们。但要畏惧有权将身体和灵魂一同毁灭在地狱里的上帝。

29 Are not two sparrows sold for a penny? Yet not one of them will fall to the ground apart from the will of your Father.

29 两只麻雀不是只卖一个铜钱吗？然而没有天父的许可，一只也不会掉在地上。

30 And even the very hairs of your head are all numbered.

30 就连你们的头发都被数过了。

31 So do not be afraid; you are worth more than many sparrows.

31 所以不要害怕，你们比许多麻雀要贵重！

32 Therefore everyone who confesses Me before men, I will also confess him before My Father in heaven.

32 “凡在人面前承认我的，我在天父面前也必承认他；

33 But whoever denies Me before men, I will also deny him before My Father in heaven.

33 凡在人面前否认我的，我在天父面前也必否认他。

34 Do not assume that I have come to bring peace to the earth; I have not come to bring peace, but a sword.

34 “不要以为我来了会让天下太平，我不是带来和平，而是带来刀剑。

35 For I have come to turn ‘a man against his father, a daughter against her mother, a daughter-in-law against her mother-in-law.

35 因为我来是要叫儿子与父亲作对，女儿与母亲作对，媳妇与婆婆作对，

36 A man’s enemies will be the members of his own household.’

36 家人之间反目成仇。

37 Anyone who loves his father or mother more than Me is not worthy of Me; anyone who loves his son or daughter more than Me is not worthy of Me;

37 “爱父母过于爱我的人不配做我的门徒；爱儿女过于爱我的人不配做我的门徒；

38 and anyone who does not take up his cross and follow Me is not worthy of Me.

38 不背起自己的十字架跟从我的，不配做我的门徒。

39 Whoever finds his life will lose it, and whoever loses his life for My sake will find it.

39 保全自己生命的，必失去生命；但为了我失去生命的，必得到生命。

40 He who receives you receives Me, and he who receives Me receives the One who sent Me.

40 “谁接待你们，就是接待我；谁接待我，就是接待差我来的那位。

41 Whoever receives a prophet because he is a prophet will receive a prophet’s reward, and whoever receives a righteous man because he is a righteous man will receive a righteous man’s reward.

41 因为某人是先知而接待他的，必得到和先知一样的赏赐；因为某人是义人而接待他的，必得到和义人一样的赏赐。

42 And if anyone gives even a cup of cold water to one of these little ones because he is My disciple, truly I tell you, he will never lose his reward.”

42 人若接待我门徒中最卑微的人，并因为他是我的门徒而给他一杯凉水喝，我实在告诉你们，那人必得到赏赐。”
