使shǐ徒tú行xíng傳zhuàn第dì八bā 章zhāng	Acts 8
1 從cóng 這zhè 日rì 起qǐ 、 耶yē路lù撒sā冷lěng 的de 教jiào會huì 、 大dà 遭zāo 逼bī迫pò ． 除chú了le 使shǐ徒tú 以yǐ外wài 、 門mén徒tú 都dōu 分fēn散sàn 在zài 猶yóu太tài 和hé 撒sā瑪mǎ利lì亞yǎ 各gè處chù 。	1 And Saul was consenting unto his death. And at that time there was a great persecution against the church which was at Jerusalem; and they were all scattered abroad throughout the regions of Judaea and Samaria, except the apostles.
2 有yǒu 虔qián誠chéng 的de 人rén 、 把bǎ 司sī 提tí 反fǎn 埋mái葬zàng 了le 、 為wèi 他tā 捶chuí 胸xiōng 大dà哭kū 。	2 And devout men carried Stephen to his burial, and made great lamentation over him.
3 掃sǎo羅luó 卻què 殘cán害hài 教jiào會huì 、 進jìn 各gè人rén 的de 家jiā 、 拉lā著zhe 男nán女nǚ 下xià 在zài 監jiān 裡lǐ 。	3 As for Saul, he made havock of the church, entering into every house, and haling men and women committed them to prison.
4 那nà些xiē 分fēn散sàn 的de 人rén 、 往wǎng 各gè處chù 去qù 傳chuán道dào 。	4 Therefore they that were scattered abroad went every where preaching the word.
5 腓féi 利lì 下xià 撒sā瑪mǎ利lì亞yǎ 城chéng 去qù 、 宣xuān講jiǎng 基jī督dū 。	5 Then Philip went down to the city of Samaria, and preached Christ unto them.
6 眾zhòng人rén 聽tīng見jiàn 了le 、 又yòu 看kàn見jiàn 腓féi 利lì 所suǒ 行xíng的de 神shén蹟jī 、 就jiù 同tóng心xīn 合hé意yì 的de 聽tīng從cóng 他tā的de 話huà ．	6 And the people with one accord gave heed unto those things which Philip spake, hearing and seeing the miracles which he did.
7 因yīn為wèi 有yǒu 許xǔ多duō 人rén 被bèi 污wū 鬼guǐ 附fù著zhe 、 那nà些xiē 鬼guǐ大dà 聲shēng 呼hū叫jiào 、 從cóng 他tā們men 身shēn上shàng 出chū來lai ． 還hái有yǒu 許xǔ多duō 癱tān瘓huàn 的de 、 瘸qué腿tuǐ 的de 、 都dōu 得dé了le 醫yī治zhì 。	7 For unclean spirits, crying with loud voice, came out of many that were possessed with them: and many taken with palsies, and that were lame, were healed.
8 在zài 那nà 城chéng裡lǐ 、 就jiù 大dà有yǒu 歡huān喜xǐ 。	8 And there was great joy in that city.
9 有yǒu 一yī個ge 人rén 、 名míng叫jiào 西xī門mén 、 向xiàng來lái 在zài 那nà 城chéng裡lǐ 行xíng 邪xié術shù 、 妄wàng自zì尊zūn大dà 、 使shǐ 撒sā瑪mǎ利lì亞yǎ 的de 百bǎi姓xìng 驚jīng奇qí ．	9 But there was a certain man, called Simon, which beforetime in the same city used sorcery, and bewitched the people of Samaria, giving out that himself was some great one:
10 無wú論lùn 大dà小xiǎo 、 都dōu 聽tīng從cóng 他tā 、 說shuō 、 這zhè 人rén 就jiù是shì 那nà 稱chēng為wéi 神shén 的de 大dà能néng 者zhě 。	10 To whom they all gave heed, from the least to the greatest, saying, This man is the great power of God.
11 他tā們men 聽tīng從cóng 他tā 、 因yīn 他tā 久jiǔ 用yòng 邪xié術shù 、 使shǐ 他tā們men 驚jīng奇qí 。	11 And to him they had regard, because that of long time he had bewitched them with sorceries.
12 及jí至zhì 他tā們men 信xìn 了le 腓féi 利lì 所suǒ 傳chuán神shén 國guó 的de 福fú音yīn 、 和hé 耶yē穌sū基jī督dū 的de 名míng 、 連lián 男nán 帶dài 女nǚ 就jiù 受shòu了le 洗xǐ 。	12 But when they believed Philip preaching the things concerning the kingdom of God, and the name of Jesus Christ, they were baptized, both men and women.
13 西xī門mén 自zì己jǐ 也yě 信xìn 了le ． 既jì 受shòu了le 洗xǐ 、 就jiù 常cháng 與yú 腓féi 利lì 在zài 一yī處chù ． 看kàn見jiàn 他tā 所suǒ 行xíng的de 神shén蹟jī 和hé 大dà 異yì 能néng 、 就jiù 甚shèn 驚jīng奇qí 。	13 Then Simon himself believed also: and when he was baptized, he continued with Philip, and wondered, beholding the miracles and signs which were done.
14 使shǐ徒tú 在zài 耶yē路lù撒sā冷lěng 、 聽tīng見jiàn 撒sā瑪mǎ利lì亞yǎ 人rén 領lǐng受shòu 了le 神shén 的de 道dào 、 就jiù 打dǎ發fā 彼bǐ得dé 約yuē翰hàn 往wǎng 他tā們men 那nà裡li 去qù 。	14 Now when the apostles which were at Jerusalem heard that Samaria had received the word of God, they sent unto them Peter and John:
15 兩liǎng個ge 人rén 到dào了le 、 就jiù 為wèi 他tā們men 禱dǎo告gào 、 要yào 叫jiào 他tā們men 受shòu 聖shèng靈líng ．	15 Who, when they were come down, prayed for them, that they might receive the Holy Ghost:
16 因yīn為wèi 聖shèng靈líng 還hái沒méi有yǒu 降jiàng 在zài 他tā們men 一yī個ge 人rén身shēn 上shàng ． 他tā們men 只zhǐ 奉fèng 主zhǔ 耶yē穌sū 的de 名míng 受shòu了le 洗xǐ 。	16 (For as yet he was fallen upon none of them: only they were baptized in the name of the Lord Jesus.)
17 於yú是shì 使shǐ徒tú 按àn手shǒu 在zài 他tā們men 頭tóu上shàng 、 他tā們men 就jiù 受shòu了le 聖shèng靈líng 。	17 Then laid they their hands on them, and they received the Holy Ghost.
18 西xī門mén 看kàn見jiàn 使shǐ徒tú 按àn手shǒu 、 便biàn有yǒu 聖shèng靈líng 賜cì 下xià ． 就jiù 拿ná錢qián 給gěi 使shǐ徒tú 、	18 And when Simon saw that through laying on of the apostles' hands the Holy Ghost was given, he offered them money,
19 說shuō 、 把bǎ 這zhè 權quán柄bǐng 也yě 給gěi 我wǒ 、 叫jiào 我wǒ 手shǒu 按àn著zhe 誰shéi 、 誰shéi 就jiù 可kě以yǐ 受shòu 聖shèng靈líng 。	19 Saying, Give me also this power, that on whomsoever I lay hands, he may receive the Holy Ghost.
20 彼bǐ得dé 說shuō 、 你nǐ的de 銀yín子zi 、 和hé 你nǐ 一yī同tóng 滅miè亡wáng 罷bà ． 因yīn 你nǐ 想xiǎng 神shén 的de 恩ēn賜cì 、 是shì 可kě以yǐ 用yòng錢qián 買mǎi的de 。	20 But Peter said unto him, Thy money perish with thee, because thou hast thought that the gift of God may be purchased with money.
21 你nǐ 在zài 這zhè 道dào上shàng 、 無wú分fēn 無wú關guān ． 因yīn為wèi 在zài 神shén 面miàn前qián 、 你nǐ的de 心xīn 不bù正zhèng 。	21 Thou hast neither part nor lot in this matter: for thy heart is not right in the sight of God.
22 你nǐ 當dāng 懊ào悔huǐ 你nǐ 這zhè 罪zuì惡è 、 祈qí求qiú 主zhǔ ． 或huò者zhě 你nǐ 心xīn裡lǐ 的de 意yì念niàn 可kě 得dé 赦shè免miǎn 。	22 Repent therefore of this thy wickedness, and pray God, if perhaps the thought of thine heart may be forgiven thee.
23 我wǒ 看kàn出chū 你nǐ 正zhèng在zài 苦kǔ膽dǎn 之zhī 中zhōng 、 被bèi 罪zuì惡è 捆kǔn綁bǎng 。	23 For I perceive that thou art in the gall of bitterness, and in the bond of iniquity.
24 西xī門mén 說shuō 、 願yuàn 你nǐ們men 為wèi 我wǒ 求qiú主zhǔ 、 叫jiào 你nǐ們men 所suǒ 說shuō的de 、 沒méi有yǒu 一yí樣yàng 臨lín到dào 我wǒ 身shēn上shàng 。	24 Then answered Simon, and said, Pray ye to the LORD for me, that none of these things which ye have spoken come upon me.
25 使shǐ徒tú 既jì 證zhèng明míng 主zhǔ 道dào 、 而ér且qiě 傳chuán講jiǎng 、 就jiù 回huí 耶yē路lù撒sā冷lěng 去qù 、 一yī路lù 在zài 撒sā瑪mǎ利lì亞yǎ 好hǎo些xiē 村cūn 莊zhuāng 傳chuán揚yáng 福fú音yīn 。	25 And they, when they had testified and preached the word of the Lord, returned to Jerusalem, and preached the gospel in many villages of the Samaritans.
26 有yǒu 主zhǔ 的de 一yī個ge 使shǐ者zhě 對duì 腓féi 利lì 說shuō 、 起qǐ來lai 、 向xiàng南nán 走zǒu 、 往wǎng那nà 從cóng 耶yē路lù撒sā冷lěng 下xià 迦jiā 薩sà 的de 路lù上shàng 去qù 。 那nà 路lù 是shì 曠kuàng野yě 。	26 And the angel of the Lord spake unto Philip, saying, Arise, and go toward the south unto the way that goeth down from Jerusalem unto Gaza, which is desert.
27 腓féi 利lì 就jiù 起qǐ身shēn 去qù了le ． 不bù料liào 、 有yǒu 一yī個ge 埃āi 提tí 阿ā伯bó 〔 即jí 古gǔ 實shí 見jiàn 以yǐ賽sài亞yǎ 十shí八bā 章zhāng 一yī節jié 〕 人rén 、 是shì 個ge 有yǒu 大dà權quán 的de 太tài監jiān 、 在zài 埃āi 提tí 阿ā伯bó 女nǚ王wáng 干gān 大dà基jī 的de 手shǒu下xià 總zǒng管guǎn 銀yín 庫kù 、 他tā 上shàng 耶yē路lù撒sā冷lěng 禮lǐ拜bài 去qù了le ．	27 And he arose and went: and, behold, a man of Ethiopia, an eunuch of great authority under Candace queen of the Ethiopians, who had the charge of all her treasure, and had come to Jerusalem for to worship,
28 現xiàn在zài 回huí來lai 、 在zài車chē 上shàng坐zuò 著zhe 、 念niàn 先xiān知zhī 以yǐ賽sài亞yǎ 的de 書shū 。	28 Was returning, and sitting in his chariot read Esaias the prophet.
29 聖shèng靈líng 對duì 腓féi 利lì 說shuō 、 你nǐ 去qù 貼tiē近jìn 那nà車chē 走zǒu 。	29 Then the Spirit said unto Philip, Go near, and join thyself to this chariot.
30 腓féi 利lì 就jiù跑pǎo 到dào 太tài監jiān 那nà裡li 、 聽tīng見jiàn 他tā 念niàn 先xiān知zhī 以yǐ賽sài亞yǎ 的de 書shū 、 便biàn 問wèn 他tā 說shuō 、 你nǐ 所suǒ 念niàn 的de 、 你nǐ 明míng白bai 麼me 。	30 And Philip ran thither to him, and heard him read the prophet Esaias, and said, Understandest thou what thou readest?
31 他tā 說shuō 、 沒méi有yǒu人rén 指zhǐ教jiào 我wǒ 、 怎zěn能néng 明míng白bai 呢ne 。 於yú是shì 請qǐng 腓féi 利lì 上shàng車chē 、 與yú 他tā 同tóng 坐zuò 。	31 And he said, How can I, except some man should guide me? And he desired Philip that he would come up and sit with him.
32 他tā 所suǒ 念niàn 的de 那nà段duàn 經jīng 、 說shuō 、『 他tā 像xiàng 羊yáng 被bèi 牽qiān 到dào 宰zǎi殺shā 之zhī 地de 、 又yòu 像xiàng 羊yáng羔gāo 在zài 剪jiǎn毛máo 的de 人rén手shǒu 下xià 無wú聲shēng 、 他tā 也yě 是shì 這zhè樣yàng 不bù開kāi 口kǒu 。	32 The place of the scripture which he read was this, He was led as a sheep to the slaughter; and like a lamb dumb before his shearer, so opened he not his mouth:
33 他tā 卑bēi微wēi 的de時shí候hòu 、 人rén 不bù 按àn 公gōng 義yì 審shěn判pàn 他tā ． 〔 原yuán文wén 作zuò 他tā的de 審shěn判pàn 被bèi 奪duó去qù 〕 誰shéi 能néng 述shù說shuō 他tā的de 世shì代dài 、 因yīn為wèi 他tā的de 生shēng命mìng 從cóng 地dì上shàng 奪duó去qù 。』	33 In his humiliation his judgment was taken away: and who shall declare his generation? for his life is taken from the earth.
34 太tài監jiān 對duì 腓féi 利lì 說shuō 、 請qǐng問wèn 、 先xiān知zhī 說shuō 這zhè 話huà 、 是shì 指zhǐ著zhe 誰shéi 、 是shì 指zhǐ著zhe 自zì己jǐ 呢ne 、 是shì 指zhǐ著zhe 別bié人rén 呢ne 。	34 And the eunuch answered Philip, and said, I pray thee, of whom speaketh the prophet this? of himself, or of some other man?
35 腓féi 利lì 就jiù 開kāi口kǒu 從cóng 這zhè 經jīng 上shàng 起qǐ 、 對duì 他tā 傳chuán講jiǎng 耶yē穌sū 。	35 Then Philip opened his mouth, and began at the same scripture, and preached unto him Jesus.
36 二èr人rén 正zhèng 往wǎng前qián 走zǒu 、 到dào了le 有yǒu水shuǐ 的de 地dì方fang ． 太tài監jiān 說shuō 、 看kàn哪nǎ 、 這zhè裡lǐ 有yǒu水shuǐ 、 我wǒ 受shòu洗xǐ 有yǒu 甚shén麼me 妨fáng礙ài 呢ne 。〔 有yǒu 古gǔ 卷juǎn 在zài 此cǐ 有yǒu 若ruò是shì 一yī心xīn 相xiāng信xìn 〕	36 And as they went on their way, they came unto a certain water: and the eunuch said, See, here is water; what doth hinder me to be baptized?
37 〔 腓féi 利lì 說shuō 你nǐ 可kě以yǐ 他tā 回huí答dá說shuō 我wǒ 信xìn 耶yē穌sū基jī督dū 是shì 神shén 的de 兒ér子zi 〕	37 And Philip said, If thou believest with all thine heart, thou mayest. And he answered and said, I believe that Jesus Christ is the Son of God.
38 於yú是shì 吩fēn咐fù 車chē站zhàn 住zhù 、 腓féi 利lì 和hé 太tài監jiān 二èr人rén 同tóng 下xià水shuǐ 裡lǐ 去qù 、 腓féi 利lì 就jiù 給gěi 他tā 施shī洗xǐ 。	38 And he commanded the chariot to stand still: and they went down both into the water, both Philip and the eunuch; and he baptized him.
39 從cóng 水shuǐ裡lǐ 上shàng來lái 、 主zhǔ的de靈líng 把bǎ 腓féi 利lì 提tí了le 去qù 、 太tài監jiān 也yě 不bù再zài 見jiàn 他tā 了le 、 就jiù 歡huān歡huān喜xǐ喜xǐ 的de 走zǒu路lù 。	39 And when they were come up out of the water, the Spirit of the Lord caught away Philip, that the eunuch saw him no more: and he went on his way rejoicing.
40 後hòu來lái 有yǒu人rén 在zài 亞yà 鎖suǒ 都dōu 遇yù見jiàn 腓féi 利lì 、 他tā 走zǒu遍biàn 那nà地dì方fāng 、 在zài 各gè 城chéng 宣xuān傳chuán 福fú音yīn 、 直zhí到dào 該gāi 撒sā 利lì 亞yà 。	40 But Philip was found at Azotus: and passing through he preached in all the cities, till he came to Caesarea.
