馬太福音 Matthew 19:3-15 3 有法利賽人來試探耶穌,說:「人無論甚麼緣故都可以休妻嗎?」 4 耶穌回答說: … 6 既然如此,夫妻不再是兩個人,乃是一體的了。所以,上帝配合的,人不可分開。」7 法利賽人說: 3 Some Pharisees came to him to test him. They asked, “Is it lawful for a man to divorce his wife for any and every reason?” 4 “Haven’t you read,” he replied, … 6 So they are no longer two, but one flesh. Therefore what God has joined together, let no one separate.” 7 “Why then,” they asked,
「這樣,摩西為甚麼吩咐給妻子休書,就可以休她呢?」8 耶穌說:「摩西因為你們的心硬,所以許你們休妻,但起初並不是這樣。9 我告訴你們,凡休妻另娶的,若不是為淫亂的緣故,就是犯姦淫了;有人娶那被休的婦人,也是犯姦淫了。」 “did Moses command that a man give his wife a certificate of divorce and send her away?” 8 Jesus replied, “Moses permitted you to divorce your wives because your hearts were hard. But it was not this way from the beginning. 9 I tell you that anyone who divorces his wife, except for sexual immorality, and marries another woman commits adultery.”
10 門徒對耶穌說: 「人和妻子既是這樣,倒不如不娶。」11 耶穌說:「這話不是人都能領受的,惟獨賜給誰,誰才能領受。12 因為有生來是閹人,也有被人閹的, 10 The disciples said to him, “If this is the situation between a husband and wife, it is better not to marry.” 11 Jesus replied, “Not everyone can accept this word, but only those to whom it has been given. 12 For there are eunuchs who were born that way, and there are eunuchs who have been made eunuchs by others—and there are those who choose to live like eunuchs
並有為天國的緣故自閹的。這話誰能領受就可以領受。」 林前 7:10–17 10 至於那已經嫁娶的,我吩咐他們;其實不是我吩咐,乃是主吩咐說:妻子不可離開丈夫,11 若是離開了,不可再嫁,或是仍同丈夫和好。丈夫也不可離棄妻子。 for the sake of the kingdom of heaven. The one who can accept this should accept it.” 1 Corinthians 7:10–17 10 To the married I give this command (not I, but the Lord): A wife must not separate from her husband. 11 But if she does, she must remain unmarried or else be reconciled to her husband. And a husband must not divorce his wife.
12 我對其餘的人說(不是主說):倘若某弟兄有不信的妻子,妻子也情願和他同住,他就不要離棄妻子。13 妻子有不信的丈夫,丈夫也情願和她同住,她就不要離棄丈夫。14 因為不信的丈夫就因著妻子成了聖潔,並且不信的妻子就因著丈夫成了聖潔。 12 To the rest I say this (I, not the Lord): If any brother has a wife who is not a believer and she is willing to live with him, he must not divorce her. 13 And if a woman has a husband who is not a believer and he is willing to live with her, she must not divorce him. 14 For the unbelieving husband has been sanctified through his wife, and the unbelieving wife has been sanctified through her believing
不然,你們的兒女就不潔淨,但如今他們是聖潔的了。15 倘若那不信的人要離去,就由他離去吧!無論是弟兄,是姊妹,遇著這樣的事都不必拘束。上帝召我們原是要我們和睦。16 你這作妻子的,怎麼知道不能救你的丈夫呢?你這作丈夫的,怎麼知道 husband. Otherwise your children would be unclean, but as it is, they are holy. 15 But if the unbeliever leaves, let it be so. The brother or the sister is not bound in such circumstances; God has called us to live in peace. 16 How do you know, wife, whether you will save your husband? Or, how do you know,
不能救你的妻子呢? 17 只要照主所分給各人的,和上帝所召各人的而行。我吩咐各教會都是這樣。 husband, whether you will save your wife? 17 Nevertheless, each person should live as a believer in whatever situation the Lord has assigned to them, just as God has called them. This is the rule I lay down in all the churches.
