使徒行传 15:22-41 /附音频

0:00

15:22 那时，使徒和长老同全教会，都认为该从他们中间拣选人，差他们和保罗、巴拿巴同往安提阿去，所拣选的就是称呼巴撒巴的犹大和西拉，这两个人在弟兄中是领头的。

It then seemed good to the apostles and the elders with the whole church to choose men from among them to send to Antioch together with Paul and Barnabas: Judas, who is called Barsabbas, and Silas, leading men among the brothers,

15:23 于是写信，经他们的手带去，信上说，使徒和长老弟兄们，向安提阿、叙利亚、和基利家遍处的外邦弟兄们问安。

Writing to them and sending by their hand the following: The apostles and the elder brothers, to the brothers throughout Antioch and Syria and Cilicia who are of the Gentiles, rejoice.

15:24 我们听说有几个人，从我们这里出去，用言语搅扰你们，惑乱你们的心；其实我们并没有嘱咐他们。

Since we have heard that certain ones who went out from among us have troubled you with their words, unsettling your souls, to whom we gave no instruction,

15:25 所以我们同心合意，认为该拣选几个人，差他们同我们亲爱的巴拿巴和保罗，往你们那里去。

It seemed good to us, having become of one accord, to choose men to send to you together with our beloved Barnabas and Paul,

15:26 这二人是为我们主耶稣基督的名，不顾性命的。

Men who have risked their lives for the name of our Lord Jesus Christ.

15:27 我们就差了犹大和西拉，他们也要亲口报告同样的事。

Therefore we have sent Judas and Silas, who themselves will report the same things by word of mouth.

15:28 因为圣灵和我们，认为不该将更多的重担放在你们身上，惟有几件事是不可少的，

For it seemed good to the Holy Spirit and to us to lay upon you no greater burden than these necessary things:

15:29 就是禁戒祭偶像之物和血，并勒死的牲畜和淫乱，这几件你们自己若能禁戒不犯，那就好了。愿你们康壮。

To abstain from things that have been sacrificed to idols and blood and things strangled and fornication, from which if you carefully keep yourselves, you will do well. May you be strong.

15:30 他们既受差遣，就下安提阿去，聚集众人，交付书信。

So when they had been sent away, they went down to Antioch; and when they had gathered the multitude together, they handed them the letter.

15:31 众人念了，因得鼓励，就喜乐了。

And when they read it, they rejoiced at the encouragement.

15:32 犹大和西拉也是申言者，就用许多话鼓励并坚固弟兄们。

And Judas and Silas, also being prophets themselves, exhorted the brothers through much speaking and confirmed them.

15:33 过了一些时候，弟兄们打发他们平平安安的回到差遣他们的人那里去。

And when they had spent some time there, they were sent away with peace from the brothers to those who had sent them.

15:34 惟有西拉认为该住在那里。

But it seemed good to Silas to remain there.

15:35 但保罗和巴拿巴仍住在安提阿，和许多别的人一同施教，传主的话为福音。

And Paul and Barnabas stayed in Antioch, teaching and announcing the word of the Lord as the gospel with many others also.

15:36 过了些日子，保罗对巴拿巴说，我们要回到从前宣传主话的各城，看望弟兄们的景况如何。

Now after some days Paul said to Barnabas, Let us return now and visit the brothers in every city in which we announced the word of the Lord, and see how they are doing.

15:37 巴拿巴定意也带着称呼马可的约翰同去，

And Barnabas intended to take John, who is called Mark, along with them also;

15:38 但保罗以为不带他同去是适宜的，因为马可从前曾在旁非利亚离开他们，不和他们同去作工。

But Paul did not consider it suitable to take with them this one who withdrew from them in Pamphylia and did not go with them to the work.

15:39 于是二人起了争执，甚至彼此分开；巴拿巴带着马可，坐船往居比路去；

And there was a sharp contention, so that they separated from each other; and Barnabas, taking Mark along, sailed away to Cyprus.

15:40 保罗却拣选了西拉，也出去，蒙弟兄们把他交与主的恩典。

But Paul chose Silas and went out, having been commended to the grace of the Lord by the brothers.

15:41 他就走遍叙利亚和基利家，坚固众教会。

And he passed through Syria and Cilicia, confirming the churches.
