# 徒-Act 8 ## 徒8:1 从这日起，耶路撒冷的教会大遭逼迫，除了使徒以外，门徒都分散在犹太和撒玛利亚各处。 Act 8:1 “And Saul approved of his execution. And there arose on that day a great persecution against the church in Jerusalem, and they were all scattered throughout the regions of Judea and Samaria, except the apostles.” ## 徒8:2 有虔诚的人把司提反埋葬了，为他捶胸大哭。 Act 8:2 Devout men buried Stephen and made great lamentation over him. ## 徒8:3 扫罗却残害教会，进各人的家，拉着男女下在监里。 Act 8:3 “But Saul was ravaging the church, and entering house after house, he dragged off men and women and committed them to prison.” ## 徒8:4 那些分散的人往各处去传道。 Act 8:4 Now those who were scattered went about preaching the word. ## 徒8:5 腓利下撒玛利亚城去，宣讲基督。 Act 8:5 Philip went down to the city of Samaria and proclaimed to them the Christ. ## 徒8:6 众人听见了，又看见腓利所行的神迹，就同心合意地听从他的话。 Act 8:6 And the crowds with one accord paid attention to what was being said by Philip when they heard him and saw the signs that he did. ## 徒8:7 因为有许多人被污鬼附着，那些鬼大声呼叫，从他们身上出来；还有许多瘫痪的、瘸腿的，都得了医治。 Act 8:7 “For unclean spirits, crying out with a loud voice, came out of many who had them, and many who were paralyzed or lame were healed.” ## 徒8:8 在那城里，就大有欢喜。 Act 8:8 So there was much joy in that city. ## 徒8:9 有一个人，名叫西门，向来在那城里行邪术，妄自尊大，使撒玛利亚的百姓惊奇； Act 8:9 “But there was a man named Simon, who had previously practiced magic in the city and amazed the people of Samaria, saying that he himself was somebody great.” ## 徒8:10 无论大小，都听从他，说：“这人就是那称为神的大能者。” Act 8:10 “They all paid attention to him, from the least to the greatest, saying, “This man is the power of God that is called Great.” ## 徒8:11 他们听从他，因他久用邪术，使他们惊奇。 Act 8:11 And they paid attention to him because for a long time he had amazed them with his magic. ## 徒8:12 及至他们信了腓利所传神国的福音，和耶稣基督的名，连男带女就受了洗。 Act 8:12 “But when they believed Philip as he preached good news about the kingdom of God and the name of Jesus Christ, they were baptized, both men and women.” ## 徒8:13 西门自己也信了；既受了洗，就常与腓利在一处，看见他所行的神迹和大异能，就甚惊奇。 Act 8:13 “Even Simon himself believed, and after being baptized he continued with Philip. And seeing signs and great miracles performed, he was amazed.” ## 徒8:14 使徒在耶路撒冷，听见撒玛利亚人领受了神的道，就打发彼得、约翰往他们那里去。 Act 8:14 “Now when the apostles at Jerusalem heard that Samaria had received the word of God, they sent to them Peter and John,” ## 徒8:15 两个人到了，就为他们祷告，要叫他们受圣灵。 Act 8:15 “who came down and prayed for them that they might receive the Holy Spirit,” ## 徒8:16 因为圣灵还没有降在他们一个人身上。他们只奉主耶稣的名受了洗。 Act 8:16 “for he had not yet fallen on any of them, but they had only been baptized in the name of the Lord Jesus.” ## 徒8:17 于是使徒按手在他们头上，他们就受了圣灵。 Act 8:17 Then they laid their hands on them and they received the Holy Spirit. ## 徒8:18 西门看见使徒按手，便有圣灵赐下，就拿钱给使徒， Act 8:18 “Now when Simon saw that the Spirit was given through the laying on of the apostles’ hands, he offered them money,” ## 徒8:19 说：“把这权柄也给我，叫我手按着谁，谁就可以受圣灵。” Act 8:19 “saying, “Give me this power also, so that anyone on whom I lay my hands may receive the Holy Spirit.” ## 徒8:20 彼得说：“你的银子和你一同灭亡吧！因你想神的恩赐是可以用钱买的。 Act 8:20 “But Peter said to him, “May your silver perish with you, because you thought you could obtain the gift of God with money!” ## 徒8:21 你在这道上无分无关；因为在神面前，你的心不正。 Act 8:21 “You have neither part nor lot in this matter, for your heart is not right before God.” ## 徒8:22 你当懊悔你这罪恶，祈求主，或者你心里的意念可得赦免。 Act 8:22 “Repent, therefore, of this wickedness of yours, and pray to the Lord that, if possible, the intent of your heart may be forgiven you.” ## 徒8:23 我看出你正在苦胆之中，被罪恶捆绑。” Act 8:23 “For I see that you are in the gall of bitterness and in the bond of iniquity.” ## 徒8:24 西门说：“愿你们为我求主，叫你们所说的，没有一样临到我身上。” Act 8:24 “And Simon answered, “Pray for me to the Lord, that nothing of what you have said may come upon me.” ## 徒8:25 使徒既证明主道，而且传讲，就回耶路撒冷去，一路在撒玛利亚好些村庄传扬福音。 Act 8:25 “Now when they had testified and spoken the word of the Lord, they returned to Jerusalem, preaching the gospel to many villages of the Samaritans.” ## 徒8:26 有主的一个使者对腓利说：“起来！向南走，往那从耶路撒冷下迦萨的路上去。”那路是旷野。 Act 8:26 “Now an angel of the Lord said to Philip, “Rise and go toward the south to the road that goes down from Jerusalem to Gaza.” This is a desert place.” ## 徒8:27 腓利就起身去了。不料，有一个埃提阿伯(即“古实”，见以赛亚十八章一节)人，是个有大权的太监，在埃提阿伯女王干大基的手下总管银库，他上耶路撒冷礼拜去了。 Act 8:27 “And he rose and went. And there was an Ethiopian, a eunuch, a court official of Candace, queen of the Ethiopians, who was in charge of all her treasure. He had come to Jerusalem to worship” ## 徒8:28 现在回来，在车上坐着，念先知以赛亚的书。 Act 8:28 “and was returning, seated in his chariot, and he was reading the prophet Isaiah.” ## 徒8:29 圣灵对腓利说：“你去！贴近那车走。” Act 8:29 “And the Spirit said to Philip, “Go over and join this chariot.” ## 徒8:30 腓利就跑到太监那里，听见他念先知以赛亚的书。便问他说：“你所念的，你明白吗？” Act 8:30 “So Philip ran to him and heard him reading Isaiah the prophet and asked, “Do you understand what you are reading?” ## 徒8:31 他说：“没有人指教我，怎能明白呢？”于是请腓利上车，与他同坐。 Act 8:31 “And he said, “How can I, unless someone guides me?” And he invited Philip to come up and sit with him.” ## 徒8:32 他所念的那段经，说：“他象羊被牵到宰杀之地，又象羊羔在剪毛的人手下无声，他也是这样不开口。 Act 8:32 “Now the passage of the Scripture that he was reading was this: “Like a sheep he was led to the slaughter and like a lamb before its shearer is silent, so he opens not his mouth.” ## 徒8:33 他卑微的时候，人不按公义审判他(原文作“他的审判被夺去”)，谁能述说他的世代？因为他的生命从地上夺去。” Act 8:33 “In his humiliation justice was denied him. Who can describe his generation? For his life is taken away from the earth.” ## 徒8:34 太监对腓利说：“请问，先知说这话是指着谁，是指着自己呢？是指着别人呢？” Act 8:34 “And the eunuch said to Philip, “About whom, I ask you, does the prophet say this, about himself or about someone else?” ## 徒8:35 腓利就开口从这经上起，对他传讲耶稣。 Act 8:35 Then Philip opened his mouth, and beginning with this Scripture he told him the good news about Jesus.” ## 徒8:36 二人正往前走，到了有水的地方，太监说：“看哪！这里有水，我受洗有什么妨碍呢？”(有古卷在此有 Act 8:36 “And as they were going along the road they came to some water, and the eunuch said, “See, here is water! What prevents me from being baptized?” ## 徒8:37 腓利说：“你若是一心相信，就可以。”他回答说：“我信耶稣基督是神的儿子。”)。 Act 8:37 “\[And Philip said, “If you believe with all your heart, you may.” And he replied, “I believe that Jesus Christ is the Son of God.”>” ## 徒8:38 于是吩咐车站住，腓利和太监二人同下水里去，腓利就给他施洗。 Act 8:38 “And he commanded the chariot to stop, and they both went down into the water, Philip and the eunuch, and he baptized him.” ## 徒8:39 从水里上来，主的灵把腓利提了去，太监也不再见他了，就欢欢喜喜地走路。 Act 8:39 “And when they came up out of the water, the Spirit of the Lord carried Philip away, and the eunuch saw him no more, and went on his way rejoicing.” ## 徒8:40 后来有人在亚锁都遇见腓利，他走遍那地方，在各城宣传福音，直到该撒利亚。 Act 8:40 “But Philip found himself at Azotus, and as he passed through he preached the gospel to all the towns until he came to Caesarea.”
