Matthew

杀害耶稣的阴谋

1耶稣说完了这一切的话，就对门徒说：

2「你们知道，过两天是逾越节，人子将要被交给人，钉在十字架上。」

3那时，祭司长和民间的长老聚集在大祭司称为该亚法的院里。

4大家商议要用诡计拿住耶稣，杀他，

5只是说：「当节的日子不可，恐怕民间生乱。」

在伯大尼受膏

6耶稣在伯大尼长大麻风的西门家里，

7有一个女人拿着一玉瓶极贵的香膏来，趁耶稣坐席的时候，浇在他的头上。

8门徒看见就很不喜悦，说：「何用这样的枉费呢！

9这香膏可以卖许多钱，周济穷人。」

10耶稣看出他们的意思，就说：「为什么难为这女人呢？她在我身上做的是一件美事。

11因为常有穷人和你们同在；只是你们不常有我。

12她将这香膏浇在我身上是为我安葬做的。

13我实在告诉你们，普天之下，无论在什么地方传这福音，也要述说这女人所行的，作个纪念。」

犹大出卖耶稣

14当下，十二门徒里有一个称为加略人犹大的，去见祭司长，

15说：「我把他交给你们，你们愿意给我多少钱？」他们就给了他三十块钱。

16从那时候，他就找机会要把耶稣交给他们。

和门徒同度逾越节

17除酵节的第一天，门徒来问耶稣说：「你吃逾越节的筵席，要我们在哪里给你预备？」

18耶稣说：「你们进城去，到某人那里，对他说：『夫子说：我的时候快到了，我与门徒要在你家里守逾越节。』」

19门徒遵着耶稣所吩咐的就去预备了逾越节的筵席。

20到了晚上，耶稣和十二个门徒坐席。

21正吃的时候，耶稣说：「我实在告诉你们，你们中间有一个人要卖我了。」

22他们就甚忧愁，一个一个地问他说：「主，是我吗？」

23耶稣回答说：「同我蘸手在盘子里的，就是他要卖我。

24人子必要去世，正如经上指着他所写的；但卖人子的人有祸了！那人不生在世上倒好。」

25卖耶稣的犹大问他说：「拉比，是我吗？」耶稣说：「你说的是。」

设立主的晚餐

26他们吃的时候，耶稣拿起饼来，祝福，就擘开，递给门徒，说：「你们拿着吃，这是我的身体」；

27又拿起杯来，祝谢了，递给他们，说：「你们都喝这个；

28因为这是我立约的血，为多人流出来，使罪得赦。

29但我告诉你们，从今以后，我不再喝这葡萄汁，直到我在我父的国里同你们喝新的那日子。」

30他们唱了诗，就出来往橄榄山去。

预言彼得不认主

31那时，耶稣对他们说：「今夜，你们为我的缘故都要跌倒。因为经上记着说：我要击打牧人， 羊就分散了。

32但我复活以后，要在你们以先往加利利去。」

33彼得说：「众人虽然为你的缘故跌倒，我却永不跌倒。」

34耶稣说：「我实在告诉你，今夜鸡叫以先，你要三次不认我。」

35彼得说：「我就是必须和你同死，也总不能不认你。」众门徒都是这样说。

在客西马尼祷告

36耶稣同门徒来到一个地方，名叫客西马尼，就对他们说：「你们坐在这里，等我到那边去祷告。」

37于是带着彼得和西庇太的两个儿子同去，就忧愁起来，极其难过，

38便对他们说：「我心里甚是忧伤，几乎要死；你们在这里等候，和我一同警醒。」

39他就稍往前走，俯伏在地，祷告说：「我父啊，倘若可行，求你叫这杯离开我。然而，不要照我的意思，只要照你的意思。」

40来到门徒那里，见他们睡着了，就对彼得说：「怎么样？你们不能同我警醒片时吗？

41总要警醒祷告，免得入了迷惑。你们心灵固然愿意，肉体却软弱了。」

42第二次又去祷告说：「我父啊，这杯若不能离开我，必要我喝，就愿你的意旨成全。」

43又来，见他们睡着了，因为他们的眼睛困倦。

44耶稣又离开他们去了。第三次祷告，说的话还是与先前一样。

45于是来到门徒那里，对他们说：「现在你们仍然睡觉安歇吧！时候到了，人子被卖在罪人手里了。

46起来！我们走吧。看哪，卖我的人近了！」

耶稣被捕

47说话之间，那十二个门徒里的犹大来了，并有许多人带着刀棒，从祭司长和民间的长老那里与他同来。

48那卖耶稣的给了他们一个暗号，说：「我与谁亲嘴，谁就是他。你们可以拿住他。」

49犹大随即到耶稣跟前，说：「请拉比安」，就与他亲嘴。

50耶稣对他说：「朋友，你来要做的事，就做吧。」于是那些人上前，下手拿住耶稣。

51有跟随耶稣的一个人伸手拔出刀来，将大祭司的仆人砍了一刀，削掉了他一个耳朵。

52耶稣对他说：「收刀入鞘吧！凡动刀的，必死在刀下。

53你想，我不能求我父现在为我差遣十二营多天使来吗？

54若是这样，经上所说，事情必须如此的话怎么应验呢？」

55当时，耶稣对众人说：「你们带着刀棒出来拿我，如同拿强盗吗？我天天坐在殿里教训人，你们并没有拿我。

56但这一切的事成就了，为要应验先知书上的话。」当下，门徒都离开他，逃走了。

耶稣在公会里受审

57拿耶稣的人把他带到大祭司该亚法那里去；文士和长老已经在那里聚会。

58彼得远远地跟着耶稣，直到大祭司的院子，进到里面，就和差役同坐，要看这事到底怎样。

59祭司长和全公会寻找假见证控告耶稣，要治死他。

60虽有好些人来作假见证，总得不着实据。末后有两个人前来，说：

61「这个人曾说：『我能拆毁 神的殿，三日内又建造起来。』」

62大祭司就站起来，对耶稣说：「你什么都不回答吗？这些人作见证告你的是什么呢？」

63耶稣却不言语。大祭司对他说：「我指着永生 神叫你起誓告诉我们，你是 神的儿子基督不是？」

64耶稣对他说：「你说的是。然而，我告诉你们，后来你们要看见人子坐在那权能者的右边，驾着天上的云降临。」

65大祭司就撕开衣服，说：「他说了僭妄的话，我们何必再用见证人呢？这僭妄的话，现在你们都听见了。

66你们的意见如何？」他们回答说：「他是该死的。」

67他们就吐唾沫在他脸上，用拳头打他，也有用手掌打他的，说：

68「基督啊！你是先知，告诉我们打你的是谁？」

彼得三次不认主

69彼得在外面院子里坐着，有一个使女前来，说：「你素来也是同那加利利人耶稣一伙的。」

70彼得在众人面前却不承认，说：「我不知道你说的是什么！」

71既出去，到了门口，又有一个使女看见他，就对那里的人说：「这个人也是同拿撒勒人耶稣一伙的。」

72彼得又不承认，并且起誓说：「我不认得那个人。」

73过了不多的时候，旁边站着的人前来，对彼得说：「你真是他们一党的，你的口音把你露出来了。」

74彼得就发咒起誓地说：「我不认得那个人。」立时，鸡就叫了。

75彼得想起耶稣所说的话：「鸡叫以先，你要三次不认我。」他就出去痛哭。

1And it came to pass, when Jesus had ended all these words, he said to his disciples:

2You know that after two days shall be the pasch, and the son of man shall be delivered up to be crucified:

3Then were gathered together the chief priests and ancients of the people into the court of the high priest, who was called Caiphas:

4And they consulted together, that by subtilty they might apprehend Jesus, and put him to death.

5But they said: Not on the festival day, lest perhaps there should be a tumult among the people.

6And when Jesus was in Bethania, in the house of Simon the leper,

7There came to him a woman having an alabaster box of precious ointment, and poured it on his head as he was at table.

8And the disciples seeing it, had indignation, saying: To what purpose is this waste?

9For this might have been sold for much, and given to the poor.

10And Jesus knowing it, said to them: Why do you trouble this woman? for she hath wrought a good work upon me.

11For the poor you have always with you: but me you have not always.

12For she in pouring this ointment upon my body, hath done it for my burial.

13Amen I say to you, wheresoever this gospel shall be preached in the whole world, that also which she hath done, shall be told for a memory of her.

14Then went one of the twelve, who was called Judas Iscariot, to the chief priests,

15And said to them: What will you give me, and I will deliver him unto you? But they appointed him thirty pieces of silver.

16And from thenceforth he sought opportunity to betray him.

17And on the first day of the Azymes, the disciples came to Jesus, saying: Where wilt thou that we prepare for thee to eat the pasch?

18But Jesus said: Go ye into the city to a certain man, and say to him: the master saith, My time is near at hand, with thee I make the pasch with my disciples.

19And the disciples did as Jesus appointed to them, and they prepared the pasch.

20But when it was evening, he sat down with his twelve disciples.

21And whilst they were eating, he said: Amen I say to you, that one of you is about to betray me.

22And they being very much troubled, began every one to say: Is it I, Lord?

23But he answering, said: He that dippeth his hand with me in the dish, he shall betray me.

24The Son of man indeed goeth, as it is written of him: but woe to that man by whom the Son of man shall be betrayed: it were better for him, if that man had not been born.

25And Judas that betrayed him, answering, said: Is it I, Rabbi? He saith to him: Thou hast said it.

26And whilst they were at supper, Jesus took bread, and blessed, and broke: and gave to his disciples, and said: Take ye, and eat. This is my body.

27And taking the chalice, he gave thanks, and gave to them, saying: Drink ye all of this.

28For this is my blood of the new testament, which shall be shed for many unto remission of sins.

29And I say to you, I will not drink from henceforth of this fruit of the vine, until that day when I shall drink it with you new in the kingdom of my Father.

30And a hymn being said, they went out unto mount Olivet.

31Then Jesus said to them: All you shall be scandalized in me this night. For it is written: I will strike the shepherd, and the sheep of the flock shall be dispersed.

32But after I shall be risen again, I will go before you into Galilee.

33And Peter answering, said to him: Although all shall be scandalized in thee, I will never be scandalized.

34Jesus said to him: Amen I say to thee, that in this night before the cock crow, thou wilt deny me thrice.

35Peter saith to him: Yea, though I should die with thee, I will not deny thee. And in like manner said all the disciples.

36Then Jesus came with them into a country place which is called Gethsemani; and he said to his disciples: Sit you here, till I go yonder and pray.

37And taking with him Peter and the two sons of Zebedee, he began to grow sorrowful and to be sad.

38Then he saith to them: My soul is sorrowful even unto death: stay you here, and watch with me.

39And going a little further, he fell upon his face, praying, and saying: My Father, if it be possible, let this chalice pass from me. Nevertheless not as I will, but as thou wilt.

40And he cometh to his disciples, and findeth them asleep, and he saith to Peter: What? Could you not watch one hour with me?

41Watch ye, and pray that ye enter not into temptation. The spirit indeed is willing, but the flesh weak.

42Again the second time, he went and prayed, saying: My Father, if this chalice may not pass away, but I must drink it, thy will be done.

43And he cometh again and findeth them sleeping: for their eyes were heavy.

44And leaving them, he went again: and he prayed the third time, saying the selfsame word.

45Then he cometh to his disciples, and saith to them: Sleep ye now and take your rest; behold the hour is at hand, and the Son of man shall be betrayed into the hands of sinners.

46Rise, let us go: behold he is at hand that will betray me.

47As he yet spoke, behold Judas, one of the twelve, came, and with him a great multitude with swords and clubs, sent from the chief priests and the ancients of the people.

48And he that betrayed him, gave them a sign, saying: Whomsoever I shall kiss, that is he, hold him fast.

49And forthwith coming to Jesus, he said: Hail, Rabbi. And he kissed him.

50And Jesus said to him: Friend, whereto art thou come? Then they came up, and laid hands on Jesus, and held him.

51And behold one of them that were with Jesus, stretching forth his hand, drew out his sword: and striking the servant of the high priest, cut off his ear.

52Then Jesus saith to him: Put up again thy sword into its place: for all that take the sword shall perish with the sword.

53Thinkest thou that I cannot ask my Father, and he will give me presently more than twelve legions of angels?

54How then shall the scriptures be fulfilled, that so it must be done?

55In that same hour Jesus said to the multitudes: You are come out as it were to a robber with swords and clubs to apprehend me. I sat daily with you, teaching in the temple, and you laid not hands on me.

56Now all this was done, that the scriptures of the prophets might be fulfilled. Then the disciples all leaving him, fled.

57But they holding Jesus led him to Caiphas the high priest, where the scribes and the ancients were assembled.

58And Peter followed him afar off, even to the court of the high priest. And going in, he sat with the servants, that he might see the end.

59And the chief priests and the whole council sought false witness against Jesus, that they might put him to death:

60And they found not, whereas many false witnesses had come in. And last of all there came two false witnesses:

61And they said: This man said, I am able to destroy the temple of God, and after three days to rebuild it.

62And the high priest rising up, said to him: Answerest thou nothing to the things which these witness against thee?

63But Jesus held his peace. And the high priest said to him: I adjure thee by the living God, that thou tell us if thou be the Christ the Son of God.

64Jesus saith to him: Thou hast said it. Nevertheless I say to you, hereafter you shall see the Son of man sitting on the right hand of the power of God, and coming in the clouds of heaven.

65Then the high priests rent his garments, saying: He hath blasphemed; what further need have we of witnesses? Behold, now you have heard the blasphemy:

66What think you? But they answering, said: He is guilty of death.

67Then did they spit in his face, and buffeted him: and others struck his face with the palms of their hands,

68Saying: Prophesy unto us, O Christ, who is he that struck thee?

69But Peter sat without in the court: and there came to him a servant maid, saying: Thou also wast with Jesus the Galilean.

70But he denied before them all, saying: I know not what thou sayest.

71And as he went out of the gate, another maid saw him, and she saith to them that were there: This man also was with Jesus of Nazareth.

72And again he denied with an oath, I know not the man.

73And after a little while they came that stood by, and said to Peter: Surely thou also art one of them; for even thy speech doth discover thee.

74Then he began to curse and to swear that he knew not the man. And immediately the cock crew.

75And Peter remembered the word of Jesus which he had said: Before the cock crow, thou wilt deny me thrice. And going forth, he wept bitterly.
