Matthew

谴责文士和法利赛人

1那时，耶稣对众人和门徒讲论，

2说：「文士和法利赛人坐在摩西的位上，

3凡他们所吩咐你们的，你们都要谨守遵行。但不要效法他们的行为；因为他们能说，不能行。

4他们把难担的重担捆起来，搁在人的肩上，但自己一个指头也不肯动。

5他们一切所做的事都是要叫人看见，所以将佩戴的经文做宽了，衣裳的 子做长了，

6喜爱筵席上的首座，会堂里的高位，

7又喜爱人在街市上问他安，称呼他拉比。

8但你们不要受拉比的称呼，因为只有一位是你们的夫子；你们都是弟兄。

9也不要称呼地上的人为父，因为只有一位是你们的父，就是在天上的父。

10也不要受师尊的称呼，因为只有一位是你们的师尊，就是基督。

11你们中间谁为大，谁就要作你们的用人。

12凡自高的，必降为卑；自卑的，必升为高。

13「你们这假冒为善的文士和法利赛人有祸了！因为你们正当人前，把天国的门关了，自己不进去，正要进去的人，你们也不容他们进去。

15「你们这假冒为善的文士和法利赛人有祸了！因为你们走遍洋海陆地，勾引一个人入教，既入了教，却使他作地狱之子，比你们还加倍。

16「你们这瞎眼领路的有祸了！你们说：『凡指着殿起誓的，这算不得什么；只是凡指着殿中金子起誓的，他就该谨守。』

17你们这无知瞎眼的人哪，什么是大的？是金子呢？还是叫金子成圣的殿呢？

18你们又说：『凡指着坛起誓的，这算不得什么；只是凡指着坛上礼物起誓的，他就该谨守。』

19你们这瞎眼的人哪，什么是大的？是礼物呢？还是叫礼物成圣的坛呢？

20所以，人指着坛起誓，就是指着坛和坛上一切所有的起誓；

21人指着殿起誓，就是指着殿和那住在殿里的起誓；

22人指着天起誓，就是指着 神的宝座和那坐在上面的起誓。

23「你们这假冒为善的文士和法利赛人有祸了！因为你们将薄荷、茴香、芹菜献上十分之一，那律法上更重的事，就是公义、怜悯、信实，反倒不行了。这更重的是你们当行的；那也是不可不行的。

24你们这瞎眼领路的，蠓虫你们就滤出来，骆驼你们倒吞下去。

25「你们这假冒为善的文士和法利赛人有祸了！因为你们洗净杯盘的外面，里面却盛满了勒索和放荡。

26你这瞎眼的法利赛人，先洗净杯盘的里面，好叫外面也干净了。

27「你们这假冒为善的文士和法利赛人有祸了！因为你们好像粉饰的坟墓，外面好看，里面却装满了死人的骨头和一切的污秽。

28你们也是如此，在人前，外面显出公义来，里面却装满了假善和不法的事。

29「你们这假冒为善的文士和法利赛人有祸了！因为你们建造先知的坟，修饰义人的墓，说：

30『若是我们在我们祖宗的时候，必不和他们同流先知的血。』

31这就是你们自己证明是杀害先知者的子孙了。

32你们去充满你们祖宗的恶贯吧！

33你们这些蛇类、毒蛇之种啊，怎能逃脱地狱的刑罚呢？

34所以我差遣先知和智慧人并文士到你们这里来，有的你们要杀害，要钉十字架；有的你们要在会堂里鞭打，从这城追逼到那城，

35叫世上所流义人的血都归到你们身上，从义人亚伯的血起，直到你们在殿和坛中间所杀的巴拉加的儿子撒迦利亚的血为止。

36我实在告诉你们，这一切的罪都要归到这世代了。」

为耶路撒冷哀哭

37「耶路撒冷啊，耶路撒冷啊，你常杀害先知，又用石头打死那奉差遣到你这里来的人。我多次愿意聚集你的儿女，好像母鸡把小鸡聚集在翅膀底下，只是你们不愿意。

38看哪，你们的家成为荒场留给你们。

39我告诉你们，从今以后，你们不得再见我，直等到你们说：『奉主名来的是应当称颂的。』」

1Then Jesus spake to the multitudes, and to his disciples,

2saying, 'On the seat of Moses sat down the scribes and the Pharisees;

3all, then, as much as they may say to you to observe, observe and do, but according to their works do not, for they say, and do not;

4for they bind together burdens heavy and grievous to be borne, and lay upon the shoulders of men, but with their finger they will not move them.

5'And all their works they do to be seen by men, and they make broad their phylacteries, and enlarge the fringes of their garments,

6they love also the chief couches in the supper, and the chief seats in the synagogues,

7and the salutations in the market-places, and to be called by men, Rabbi, Rabbi.

8'And ye — ye may not be called Rabbi, for one is your director — the Christ, and all ye are brethren;

9and ye may not call [any] your father on the earth, for one is your Father, who is in the heavens,

10nor may ye be called directors, for one is your director — the Christ.

11And the greater of you shall be your ministrant,

12and whoever shall exalt himself shall be humbled, and whoever shall humble himself shall be exalted.

13'Woe to you, Scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! because ye shut up the reign of the heavens before men, for ye do not go in, nor those going in do ye suffer to enter.

14'Woe to you, Scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! because ye eat up the houses of the widows, and for a pretence make long prayers, because of this ye shall receive more abundant judgment.

15'Woe to you, Scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! because ye go round the sea and the dry land to make one proselyte, and whenever it may happen — ye make him a son of gehenna twofold more than yourselves.

16'Woe to you, blind guides, who are saying, Whoever may swear by the sanctuary, it is nothing, but whoever may swear by the gold of the sanctuary — is debtor!

17Fools and blind! for which [is] greater, the gold, or the sanctuary that is sanctifying the gold?

18'And, whoever may swear by the altar, it is nothing; but whoever may swear by the gift that is upon it — is debtor!

19Fools and blind! for which [is] greater, the gift, or the altar that is sanctifying the gift?

20'He therefore who did swear by the altar, doth swear by it, and by all things on it;

21and he who did swear by the sanctuary, doth swear by it, and by Him who is dwelling in it;

22and he who did swear by the heaven, doth swear by the throne of God, and by Him who is sitting upon it.

23'Woe to you, Scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! because ye give tithe of the mint, and the dill, and the cumin, and did neglect the weightier things of the Law — the judgment, and the kindness, and the faith; these it behoved [you] to do, and those not to neglect.

24'Blind guides! who are straining out the gnat, and the camel are swallowing.

25'Woe to you, Scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! because ye make clean the outside of the cup and the plate, and within they are full of rapine and incontinence.

26'Blind Pharisee! cleanse first the inside of the cup and the plate, that the outside of them also may become clean.

27'Woe to you, Scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! because ye are like to whitewashed sepulchres, which outwardly indeed do appear beautiful, and within are full of bones of dead men, and of all uncleanness;

28so also ye outwardly indeed do appear to men righteous, and within ye are full of hypocrisy and lawlessness.

29'Woe to you, Scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! because ye build the sepulchres of the prophets, and adorn the tombs of the righteous,

30and say, If we had been in the days of our fathers, we would not have been partakers with them in the blood of the prophets.

31So that ye testify to yourselves, that ye are sons of them who did murder the prophets;

32and ye — ye fill up the measure of your fathers.

33'Serpents! brood of vipers! how may ye escape from the judgment of the gehenna?

34'Because of this, lo, I send to you prophets, and wise men, and scribes, and of them ye will kill and crucify, and of them ye will scourge in your synagogues, and will pursue from city to city;

35that on you may come all the righteous blood being poured out on the earth from the blood of Abel the righteous, unto the blood of Zacharias son of Barachias, whom ye slew between the sanctuary and the altar:

36verily I say to you, all these things shall come upon this generation.

37'Jerusalem, Jerusalem, that art killing the prophets, and stoning those sent unto thee, how often did I will to gather thy children together, as a hen doth gather her own chickens under the wings, and ye did not will.

38Lo, left desolate to you is your house;

39for I say to you, ye may not see me henceforth, till ye may say, Blessed [is] he who is coming in the name of the Lord.'
