章節版本經文
2:1和合本當希律王的時候,耶穌生在猶太的伯利恆。有幾個博士從東方來到耶路撒冷,說:
NIVAfter Jesus was born in Bethlehem in Judea, during the time of King Herod, Magi from the east came to Jerusalem
2:2和合本「那生下來作猶太人之王的在那裡?我們在東方看見他的星,特來拜他。」
NIVand asked, "Where is the one who has been born king of the Jews? We saw his star when it rose and have come to worship him."

NIVWhen he had called together all the people's chief priests and teachers of the law, he asked them where the Messiah was to be born.

2:6和合本猶大地的伯利恆啊,你在猶大諸城中並不是最小的;因為將來有一位君王要從你那裡出來,牧養我以色列民。」
NIV" 'But you, Bethlehem, in the land of Judah, are by no means least among the rulers of Judah; for out of you will come a ruler who will shepherd my people Israel.' "
2:7和合本當下,希律暗暗的召了博士來,細問那星是什麼時候出現的,
NIVThen Herod called the Magi secretly and found out from them the exact time the star had appeared.
2:8和合本就差他們往伯利恆去,說:「你們去仔細尋訪那小孩子,尋到了,就來報信,我也好去拜他。」
NIVHe sent them to Bethlehem and said, "Go and search carefully for the child. As soon as you find him, report to me, so that I too may go and worship him."

NIVWhen they had gone, an angel of the Lord appeared to Joseph in a dream. "Get up," he said, "take the child and his mother and escape to Egypt. Stay there until I tell you, for Herod is going to search for the child to kill him."
2:14和合本約瑟就起來,夜間帶著小孩子和他母親往埃及去,
NIVSo he got up, took the child and his mother during the night and left for Egypt,
2:15和合本住在那裡,直到希律死了。這是要應驗主藉先知所說的話,說:「我從埃及召出我的兒子來。」
NIVwhere he stayed until the death of Herod. And so was fulfilled what the Lord had said through the prophet: "Out of Egypt I called my son."
2:16和合本希律見自己被博士愚弄,就大大發怒,差人將伯利恆城裡並四境所有的男孩,照著他向博士仔細查問的時候,凡兩歲以裡的,都殺盡了。
NIVWhen Herod realized that he had been outwitted by the Magi, he was furious, and he gave orders to kill all the boys in Bethlehem and its vicinity who were two years old and under, in accordance with the time he had learned from the Magi.
2:17和合本這就應了先知耶利米的話,說:
NIVThen what was said through the prophet Jeremiah was fulfilled:
2:18和合本在拉瑪聽見號咷大哭的聲音,是拉結哭他兒女,不肯受安慰,因為他們都不在了。
NIV"A voice is heard in Ramah, weeping and great mourning, Rachel weeping for her children and refusing to be comforted, because they are no more."
2:19和合本希律死了以後,有主的使者在埃及向約瑟夢中顯現,說:
NIVAfter Herod died, an angel of the Lord appeared in a dream to Joseph in Egypt
2:20和合本「起來!帶著小孩子和他母親往以色列地去,因為要害小孩子性命的人已經死了。」
NIVand said, "Get up, take the child and his mother and go to the land of Israel, for those who were trying to take the child's life are dead."
2:21和合本約瑟就起來,把小孩子和他母親帶到以色列地去;
NIVSo he got up, took the child and his mother and went to the land of Israel.
2:22和合本只因聽見亞基老接著他父親希律作了猶太王,就怕往那裡去,又在夢中被主指示,便往加利利境內去了,
NIVBut when he heard that Archelaus was reigning in Judea in place of his father Herod, he was afraid to go there. Having been warned in a dream, he withdrew to the district of Galilee,
2:23和合本到了一座城,名叫拿撒勒,就住在那裡。這是要應驗先知所說,他將稱為拿撒勒人的話了。
NIVand he went and lived in a town called Nazareth. So was fulfilled what was said through the prophets, that he would be called a Nazarene.

19:4和合本耶穌回答說:「那起初造人的,是造男造女,
NIV"Haven't you read," he replied, "that at the beginning the Creator 'made them male and female,'
19:5和合本並且說:『因此,人要離開父母,與妻子連合,二人成為一體。』這經你們沒有念過嗎?
NIVand said, 'For this reason a man will leave his father and mother and be united to his wife, and the two will become one flesh'19:5Gen. 2:24 ?
19:6和合本既然如此,夫妻不再是兩個人,乃是一體的了。所以,神配合的,人不可分開。」

19:7和合本法利賽人說:「這樣,摩西為什麼吩咐給妻子休書,就可以休他呢?」

19:8和合本耶穌說:「摩西因為你們的心硬,所以許你們休妻,但起初並不是這樣。
NIVJesus replied, "Moses permitted you to divorce your wives because your hearts were hard. But it was not this way from the beginning.
19:9和合本我告訴你們,凡休妻另娶的,若不是為淫亂的緣故,就是犯姦淫了;有人娶那被休的婦人,也是犯姦淫了。」

19:11和合本耶穌說:「這話不是人都能領受的,惟獨賜給誰,誰才能領受。
NIVJesus replied, "Not everyone can accept this word, but only those to whom it has been given.
19:12和合本因為有生來是閹人,也有被人閹的,並有為天國的緣故自閹的。這話誰能領受就可以領受。」
NIVFor there are eunuchs who were born that way, and there are eunuchs who have been made eunuchs by others-and there are those who choose to live like eunuchs for the sake of the kingdom of heaven. The one who can accept this should accept it."
19:13和合本那時,有人帶著小孩子來見耶穌,要耶穌給他們按手禱告,門徒就責備那些人。
NIVThen people brought little children to Jesus for him to place his hands on them and pray for them. But the disciples rebuked them.
19:14和合本耶穌說:「讓小孩子到我這裡來,不要禁止他們;因為在天國的,正是這樣的人。」
NIVJesus said, "Let the little children come to me, and do not hinder them, for the kingdom of heaven belongs to such as these."

19:17和合本耶穌對他說:「你為什麼以善事問我呢?只有一位是善的(有古卷:你為什麼稱我是良善的?除了神以外,沒有一個良善的)。你若要進入永生,就當遵守誡命。」
NIV"Why do you ask me about what is good?" Jesus replied. "There is only One who is good. If you want to enter life, keep the commandments."
19:18和合本他說:「什麼誡命?」耶穌說:「就是不可殺人;不可姦淫;不可偷盜;不可作假見證;
NIV"Which ones?" he inquired. Jesus replied, " 'You shall not murder, you shall not commit adultery, you shall not steal, you shall not give false testimony,
19:19和合本當孝敬父母,又當愛人如己。」
NIVhonor your father and mother,' and 'love your neighbor as yourself.'19:19Lev. 19:18 "
19:20和合本那少年人說:「這一切我都遵守了,還缺少什麼呢?」
NIV"All these I have kept," the young man said. "What do I still lack?"
19:21和合本耶穌說:「你若願意作完全人,可去變賣你所有的,分給窮人,就必有財寶在天上;你還要來跟從我。」
NIVJesus answered, "If you want to be perfect, go, sell your possessions and give to the poor, and you will have treasure in heaven. Then come, follow me."
19:22和合本那少年人聽見這話,就憂憂愁愁的走了,因為他的產業很多。
NIVWhen the young man heard this, he went away sad, because he had great wealth.
19:23和合本耶穌對門徒說:「我實在告訴你們,財主進天國是難的。
NIVThen Jesus said to his disciples, "Truly I tell you, it is hard for someone who is rich to enter the kingdom of heaven.
19:24和合本我又告訴你們,駱駝穿過針的眼,比財主進神的國還容易呢!」
NIVAgain I tell you, it is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for someone who is rich to enter the kingdom of God."
19:25和合本門徒聽見這話,就希奇得很,說:「這樣誰能得救呢?」
NIVWhen the disciples heard this, they were greatly astonished and asked, "Who then can be saved?"
19:26和合本耶穌看著他們,說:「在人這是不能的,在神凡事都能。」
NIVJesus looked at them and said, "With man this is impossible, but with God all things are possible."
19:27和合本彼得就對他說:「看哪,我們已經撇下所有的跟從你,將來我們要得什麼呢?」
NIVPeter answered him, "We have left everything to follow you! What then will there be for us?"
19:28和合本耶穌說:「我實在告訴你們,你們這跟從我的人,到復興的時候,人子坐在他榮耀的寶座上,你們也要坐在十二個寶座上,審判以色列十二個支派。
NIVJesus said to them, "Truly I tell you, at the renewal of all things, when the Son of Man sits on his glorious throne, you who have followed me will also sit on twelve thrones, judging the twelve tribes of Israel.
19:29和合本凡為我的名撇下房屋,或是弟兄、姐妹、父親、母親、(有古卷加:妻子)兒女、田地的,必要得著百倍,並且承受永生。
NIVAnd everyone who has left houses or brothers or sisters or father or mother or wife or children or fields for my sake will receive a hundred times as much and will inherit eternal life.
19:30和合本然而,有許多在前的,將要在後;在後的,將要在前。」
NIVBut many who are first will be last, and many who are last will be first.

26:55和合本當時,耶穌對眾人說:「你們帶著刀棒出來拿我,如同拿強盜嗎?我天天坐在殿裡教訓人,你們並沒有拿我。
NIVIn that hour Jesus said to the crowd, "Am I leading a rebellion, that you have come out with swords and clubs to capture me? Every day I sat in the temple courts teaching, and you did not arrest me.

NIVThe chief priests and the whole Sanhedrin were looking for false evidence against Jesus so that they could put him to death.
26:60和合本雖有好些人來作假見證,總得不著實據,末後有兩個人前來,說:
NIVBut they did not find any, though many false witnesses came forward. Finally two came forward
26:61和合本「這個人曾說:『我能拆毀神的殿,三日內又建造起來。』」
NIVand declared, "This fellow said, 'I am able to destroy the temple of God and rebuild it in three days.' "
26:62和合本大祭司就站起來,對耶穌說:「你什麼都不回答嗎?這些人作見證告你的是什麼呢?」
NIVThen the high priest stood up and said to Jesus, "Are you not going to answer? What is this testimony that these men are bringing against you?"
26:63和合本耶穌卻不言語。大祭司對他說:「我指著永生神叫你起誓告訴我們,你是神的兒子基督不是?」
NIVBut Jesus remained silent. The high priest said to him, "I charge you under oath by the living God: Tell us if you are the Messiah, the Son of God."

NIVand said, "Prophesy to us, Messiah. Who hit you?"
26:69和合本彼得在外面院子裡坐著,有一個使女前來,說:「你素來也是同那加利利人耶穌一夥的。」
NIVNow Peter was sitting out in the courtyard, and a servant girl came to him. "You also were with Jesus of Galilee," she said.
26:70和合本彼得在眾人面前卻不承認,說:「我不知道你說的是什麼!」
NIVBut he denied it before them all. "I don't know what you're talking about," he said.
