上一章 下一章

阅读 雅各书 2:

不按外貌待人

1 我的弟兄们，你们信奉我们荣耀的主耶稣基督，便不可按着外貌待人。
My brothers, don't hold the faith of our Lord Jesus Christ of glory with partiality.

2 若有一个人带着金戒指，穿着华美衣服，进你们的会堂去。又有一个穷人，穿着肮脏衣服也进去。
For if a man with a gold ring, in fine clothing, comes into your assembly, and a poor man in filthy clothing also comes in;

3 你们就重看那穿华美衣服的人，说，请坐在这好位上。又对那穷人说，你站在那里，或坐在我脚凳下边。
and you pay special attention to him who wears the fine clothing, and say, "Sit here in a good place;" and you tell the poor man, "Stand there," or "Sit by my footstool;"

4 这岂不是你们偏心待人，用恶意断定人吗？
haven't you shown partiality among yourselves, and become judges with evil thoughts?

5 我亲爱的弟兄们请听，神岂不是拣选了世上的贫穷人，叫他们在信上富足，并承受他所应许给那些爱他之人的国吗？
Listen, my beloved brothers. Didn't God choose those who are poor in this world to be rich in faith, and heirs of the Kingdom which he promised to those who love him?

6 你们反倒羞辱贫穷人。那富足人岂不是欺压你们，拉你们到公堂去吗？
But you have dishonored the poor man. Don't the rich oppress you, and personally drag you before the courts?

7 他们不是亵渎你们所敬奉的尊名吗？（所敬奉或作被称）
Don't they blaspheme the honorable name by which you are called?

8 经上记着说，要爱人如己。你们若全守这至尊的律法才是好的。
However, if you fulfill the royal law, according to the Scripture, "You shall love your neighbor as yourself," you do well.

9 但你们若按外貌待人，便是犯罪，被律法定为犯法的。
But if you show partiality, you commit sin, being convicted by the law as transgressors.

10 因为凡遵守全律法的，只在一条上跌倒，他就是犯了众条。
For whoever shall keep the whole law, and yet stumble in one point, he has become guilty of all.

11 原来那说不可奸淫的，也说不可杀人。你就是不奸淫，却杀人，仍是成了犯律法的。
For he who said, "Do not commit adultery," said also, "Do not commit murder." Now if you do not commit adultery, but murder, you have become a transgressor of the law.

12 你们既然要按使人自由的律法受审判，就该照这律法说话行事。
So speak, and so do, as men who are to be judged by a law of freedom.

13 因为那不怜悯人的，也要受无怜悯的审判。怜悯原是向审判夸胜。
For judgment is without mercy to him who has shown no mercy. Mercy triumphs over judgment.

信心没有行为是死的

14 我的弟兄们，若有人说，自己有信心，却没有行为，有什么益处呢？这信心能救他吗？
What good is it, my brothers, if a man says he has faith, but has no works? Can faith save him?

15 若是弟兄，或是姐妹，赤身露体，又缺了日用的饮食，
And if a brother or sister is naked and in lack of daily food,

16 你们中间有人对他们说，平平安安地去吧，愿你们穿得暖吃得饱。却不给他们身体所需用的，这有什么益处呢？
and one of you tells them, "Go in peace, be warmed and filled;" and yet you didn't give them the things the body needs, what good is it?

17 这样信心若没有行为就是死的。
Even so faith, if it has no works, is dead in itself.

18 必有人说：“你有信心，我有行为。”你将你没有行为的信心指给我看，我便藉着我的行为，将我的信心指给你看。
Yes, a man will say, "You have faith, and I have works." Show me your faith from your works, and I by my works will show you my faith.

19 你信神只有一位，你信的不错。鬼魔也信，却是战惊。
You believe that God is one. You do well. The demons also believe, and shudder.

20 虚浮的人哪，你愿意知道没有行为的信心是死的吗？
But do you want to know, vain man, that faith apart from works is dead?

21 我们的祖宗亚伯拉罕，把他儿子以撒献在坛上，岂不是因行为称义吗？
Wasn't Abraham our father justified by works, in that he offered up Isaac his son on the altar?

22 可见信心是与他的行为并行，而且信心因着行为才得成全。
You see that faith worked with his works, and by works faith was perfected;

23 这就应验经上所说，亚伯拉罕信神，这就算为他的义。他又得称为神的朋友。
and the Scripture was fulfilled which says, "Abraham believed God, and it was accounted to him as righteousness;" and he was called the friend of God.

24 这样看来，人称义是因着行为，不是单因着信。
You see then that by works, a man is justified, and not only by faith.

25 妓女喇合接待使者，又放他们从别的路上出去，不也是一样因行为称义吗？
In like manner wasn't Rahab the prostitute also justified by works, in that she received the messengers, and sent them out another way?

26 身体没有灵魂是死的，信心没有行为也是死的。
For as the body apart from the spirit is dead, even so faith apart from works is dead.
