Luke 11
1 When he finished praying in a certain place, one of his disciples said to him, “Lord, teach us to pray, just as John also taught his disciples.”
一次，耶穌在一個地方祈禱，停止以後，祂的一個門徒對祂說：「主，請教給我們祈禱，如同若翰教給了他的門徒一樣。」
2 He said to them, “When you pray, say, ‘Our Father in heaven, may your name be kept holy. May your Kingdom come. May your will be done on earth, as it is in heaven.
耶穌給他們說：「你們時要說：父啊! 願你的名被尊為聖，願你的國來臨，
3 Give us day by day our daily bread.
我們的日用糧，求你天天賜給我們，
4 Forgive us our sins, for we ourselves also forgive everyone who is indebted to us. Bring us not into temptation, but deliver us from the evil one.’”
寬免我們的罪過，因為我們自己也寬免所有虧負我們的人；不要讓我們陷入誘惑。」
5 He said to them, “Which of you, if you go to a friend at midnight and tell him, ‘Friend, lend me three loaves of bread,
耶穌對他們說：「你們中間誰有一個朋友，半夜去他那裏，給他說：朋友，借給我三個餅罷!
6 for a friend of mine has come to me from a journey, and I have nothing to set before him,’
因為我的朋友行路到了我這裏，我沒有什麼可以款待他。
7 and he from within will answer and say, ‘Don’t bother me. The door is now shut, and my children are with me in bed. I can’t get up and give it to you’?
那人從裏面回答說：不要煩擾我了! 門己經關上，我的孩子們同我一起在床上，我不能起來給你。
8 I tell you, although he will not rise and give it to him because he is his friend, yet because of his persistence, he will get up and give him as many as he needs.
我告訴你們：他縱然不為了他是朋友的緣故，而起來給他，也要因他恬不知恥地切求而起來，給他所需要的一切。
9 “I tell you, keep asking, and it will be given you. Keep seeking, and you will find. Keep knocking, and it will be opened to you.
所以，我告訴你們：你們求，必要給你們；你們找，必要找著；你們敲，必要給你們開門。
10 For everyone who asks receives. He who seeks finds. To him who knocks it will be opened.
因為凡求的，就必得到；找的，就必找到；敲的，就必給他開。
11 “Which of you fathers, if your son asks for bread, will give him a stone? Or if he asks for a fish, he won’t give him a snake instead of a fish, will he?
你們中間那有為父親的，兒子向他求餅，反而給他石頭呢﹖或是求魚，反將蛇當魚給他呢﹖
12 Or if he asks for an egg, he won’t give him a scorpion, will he?
或者求雞蛋，反將蝎子給他呢﹖
13 If you then, being evil, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will your heavenly Father give the Holy Spirit to those who ask him?”
你們縱然不善，尚且知道把好東西給你們的兒女，何況在天之父，有不更將聖神賜與求他的人嗎﹖」
14 He was casting out a demon, and it was mute. When the demon had gone out, the mute man spoke; and the multitudes marveled.
耶穌驅逐一個魔鬼──他是使人瘖啞的魔鬼；他出去以後，啞吧便說出話來，群眾都驚訝不止。
15 But some of them said, “He casts out demons by Beelzebul, the prince of the demons.”
但是，其中有人說：「他是仗賴魔王貝則步驅魔。」
16 Others, testing him, sought from him a sign from heaven.
另一些人試探耶穌，向他要求一個自天而來的徵兆。
17 But he, knowing their thoughts, said to them, “Every kingdom divided against itself is brought to desolation. A house divided against itself falls.
耶穌知道了他們的心意，便給他們說：「凡是一國自相紛爭，必成廢墟，一家一家的敗落。
18 If Satan also is divided against himself, how will his kingdom stand? For you say that I cast out demons by Beelzebul.
如果撒殫自相紛爭，他的國如何能存立呢﹖因為你們說我仗賴貝耳則步驅魔。
19 But if I cast out demons by Beelzebul, by whom do your children cast them out? Therefore they will be your judges.
如果我仗賴貝耳則步驅，你們的子弟們是仗賴誰驅魔呢﹖為此，他們將是你們的裁判者。
20 But if I by God’s finger cast out demons, then God’s Kingdom has come to you.
如果我是仗賴天主的手指驅魔，那麼，天主的國已來到你們中間了。
21 “When the strong man, fully armed, guards his own dwelling, his goods are safe.
幾時壯士配帶武器，看守自己的宅舍，他的財產必能安全。
22 But when someone stronger attacks him and overcomes him, he takes from him his whole armor in which he trusted, and divides his plunder.
但是，如果有個比他強壯的來戰勝他，必會把他所依仗的一切器械都奪去，而瓜分他的贓物。
23 “He who is not with me is against me. He who doesn’t gather with me scatters.
不隨同我的，就是反對我；不同我收集的，就是分散。」
24 The unclean spirit, when he has gone out of the man, passes through dry places, seeking rest; and finding none, he says, ‘I will turn back to my house from which I came out.’
邪魔從人身上出去後，走遍乾旱之地，尋找一個安息之所，卻沒有找著；他於是說：我要回到我出來的那屋裏去。
25 When he returns, he finds it swept and put in order.
他來到後，見裏面已打掃清潔，裝飾整齊，
26 Then he goes and takes seven other spirits more evil than himself, and they enter in and dwell there. The last state of that man becomes worse than the first.”
就去，另外帶了七個比自己更惡的魔鬼來，進去，住在那裏；那人末後的處境，比先前就更壞了。」
27 It came to pass, as he said these things, a certain woman out of the multitude lifted up her voice and said to him, “Blessed is the womb that bore you, and the breasts which nursed you!”
耶穌說這些話的時候，人群中，有一個婦人高聲向他說：「懷過你的胎，及你所吮吸過的乳房，是有福的! 」
28 But he said, “On the contrary, blessed are those who hear the word of God, and keep it.”
耶穌卻說：「可是那聲天主的話而遵行的，更是有福的! 」
29 When the multitudes were gathering together to him, he began to say, “This is an evil generation. It seeks after a sign. No sign will be given to it but the sign of Jonah the prophet.
群眾合攏來的時候，耶穌開始說：「這一世代是一個邪惡的世代：它要求徵兆，除了約納的徵兆外，必不給它任何其他徵兆。
30 For even as Jonah became a sign to the Ninevites, so the Son of Man will also be to this generation.
因為，有如約納為尼尼微人是個徵兆，將來人子為這一世代也是這樣的。
31 The Queen of the South will rise up in the judgment with the men of this generation and will condemn them, for she came from the ends of the earth to hear the wisdom of Solomon; and behold, one greater than Solomon is here.
南方的女王，在審判時，將同這一世代的人起來，定他們的罪，因為她從地極來，聽撒羅滿的智慧；看，這裏有一位大於撒羅滿的!
32 The men of Nineveh will stand up in the judgment with this generation, and will condemn it, for they repented at the preaching of Jonah; and behold, one greater than Jonah is here.
尼尼微人在審判時，將同這一代的人起來，定他們的罪，因為尼尼微人因了約納的宣講而悔改了；看，這裏有一位大於約納的! 」
33 “No one, when he has lit a lamp, puts it in a cellar or under a basket, but on a stand, that those who come in may see the light.
沒有人點燈放在窖中，或置於斗下的，而是放在燈台上，讓進來的人看見光明。
34 The lamp of the body is the eye. Therefore when your eye is good, your whole body is also full of light; but when it is evil, your body also is full of darkness.
你的眼睛就是身體的燈。幾時你的眼睛純潔，你全身就光明；但如果邪惡，你全身就黑暗。
35 Therefore see whether the light that is in you isn’t darkness.
為此，你要小心，不要叫你內裏的光成了黑暗。
36 If therefore your whole body is full of light, having no part dark, it will be wholly full of light, as when the lamp with its bright shining gives you light.”
所以，如果你全身光明，絲毫沒有黑暗之處，一切必要光明，有如燈光照耀你一樣。」
37 Now as he spoke, a certain Pharisee asked him to dine with him. He went in and sat at the table.
耶穌正說話的時候，有一個法利賽人請他到自己家中用飯，耶穌進去便入了席。
38 When the Pharisee saw it, he marveled that he had not first washed himself before dinner.
那個法利賽人一看見，就怪異耶穌飯前不先洗手。
39 The Lord said to him, “Now you Pharisees cleanse the outside of the cup and of the platter, but your inward part is full of extortion and wickedness.
但主對他說：「你們法利賽人洗淨杯盤的外面，而你們心中卻滿是劫奪與邪惡。
40 You foolish ones, didn’t he who made the outside make the inside also?
糊塗人哪! 那造外面的，不是也造了裏面嗎﹖
41 But give for gifts to the needy those things which are within, and behold, all things will be clean to you.
只要把你們杯盤裏面的施捨了，那麼，一切對你們便都潔淨了。
42 But woe to you Pharisees! For you tithe mint and rue and every herb, but you bypass justice and God’s love. You ought to have done these, and not to have left the other undone.
但是，禍哉，你們法利賽人! 因為你們把薄荷茴香及各種菜蔬捐獻十分之一，反而將公義及愛天主的義務忽略過去：這些固然該作，那些也不可忽略。
43 Woe to you Pharisees! For you love the best seats in the synagogues and the greetings in the marketplaces.
禍哉，你們法利賽人! 因為你們在會堂裏愛坐上座，在街市上愛受人致敬。
44 Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! For you are like hidden graves, and the men who walk over them don’t know it.”
禍哉，你們! 因為你們就如同不顯露的墳墓，人在上面行走，也不知道。」
45 One of the lawyers answered him, “Teacher, in saying this you insult us also.”
有一個法學士回答耶穌說：「師傅，你說這些話，連我們也悔辱了。」
46 He said, “Woe to you lawyers also! For you load men with burdens that are difficult to carry, and you yourselves won’t even lift one finger to help carry those burdens.
耶穌說：「禍哉，你們這些法學士! 因為你們加給人不堪負荷的重擔，而你們自己對重擔連一個指頭也不肯動一下。
47 Woe to you! For you build the tombs of the prophets, and your fathers killed them.
禍哉，你們! 你們修建先知的墳墓，而你們的祖先卻殺害了他們，
48 So you testify and consent to the works of your fathers. For they killed them, and you build their tombs.
可見你們證明，並讚成你們祖先所行的事，因為他們殺害了先知，而你們卻修建先知的墳墓。
49 Therefore also the wisdom of God said, ‘I will send to them prophets and apostles; and some of them they will kill and persecute,
為此，天主的智慧曾說過：我將要派遣先知及使者到他們那裏，其中有的，他們要殺死；有的，他們要迫害，
50 that the blood of all the prophets, which was shed from the foundation of the world, may be required of this generation,
為使從創造世界以來，所流眾先知的血，都要向這一代追討，
51 from the blood of Abel to the blood of Zachariah, who perished between the altar and the sanctuary.’ Yes, I tell you, it will be required of this generation.
從亞伯爾的血，到喪亡在祭壇與聖所之間的則加黎雅的血，的確，我告訴你們：都要向這一代追討。
52 Woe to you lawyers! For you took away the key of knowledge. You didn’t enter in yourselves, and those who were entering in, you hindered.”
禍哉，你們法學士! 因為你們拿走了智識的鑰匙，自己不進去，那願意進去的，你們也加以阻止。」
53 As he said these things to them, the scribes and the Pharisees began to be terribly angry, and to draw many things out of him,
耶穌從那裏出來以後，經師們同法利賽人開始嚴厲追逼他，盤問他許多的事，
54 lying in wait for him, and seeking to catch him in something he might say, that they might accuse him.
窺伺他，要從他口中抓到語病。
