| the angel said to her, "Rejoice, you highly favored one! The Lord is with you. Blessed are you among women!" But when she saw him, she was greatly troubled at the saying, and considered what kind of salutation this might be. The angel said to her, "Don't be afraid, Mary, for you have found favor with God. Behold, you will conceive in your womb, and bring forth a son, and will call his name 'Jesus.' He will be great, and will be called the Son of the Most High. The Lord God will give him the throne of his father, David, and he will reign over the house of Jacob forever. There will be no end to his Kingdom." Mary said to the angel, "How can this be, seeing I am a virgin?" The angel answered her, "The Holy Spirit will come on you, and the power of the Most High will overshadow you. Therefore also the holy one who is born from you will be called the Son of God. Behold, Elizabeth, your relative, also has conceived a son in her old age; and this is the sixth month with her who was called barren. For everything spoken by God is possible." | 天使進去，對他說：蒙大恩的女子，我問你安，主和你同在了！馬利亞因這話就很驚慌，又反復思想這樣問安是甚麼意思。 天使對他說：馬利亞，不要怕！你在神面前已經蒙恩了。 你要懷孕生子，可以給他起名叫耶穌。 他要為大，稱為至高者的兒子；主神要把他祖大衛的位給他。 他要作雅各家的王，直到永遠；他的國也沒有窮盡。 馬利亞對天使說：我沒有出嫁，怎麼有這事呢？ 35天使回答說：聖靈要臨到你身上，至高者的能力要蔭庇你，因此所要生的聖者必稱為神的兒子（或作：所要生的，必稱為聖，稱為神的兒子）。 況且你的親戚以利沙伯，在年老的時候也懷了男胎，就是那素來稱為不生育的，現在有孕六個月了。 因為，出於神的話，沒有一句不帶能力的。 |
| Jesus said to his disciples, "Most certainly I say to you, a rich man will enter into the Kingdom of Heaven with difficulty. Again I tell you, it is easier for a camel to go through a needle's eye, than for a rich man to enter into the Kingdom of God." When the disciples heard it, they were exceedingly astonished, saying, "Who then can be saved?" Looking at them, Jesus said, "With men this is impossible, but with God all things are possible." | 耶穌對門徒說：我實在告訴你們，財主進天國是難的。我又告訴你們，駱駝穿過針的眼，比財主進神的國還容易呢！門徒聽見這話，就希奇得很，說：這樣誰能得救呢？耶穌看著他們，說：在人這是不能的，在神凡事都能。 |
| 22Paul stood in the middle of the Areopagus, and said, "You men of Athens, I perceive that you are very religious in all things. For as I passed along, and observed the objects of your worship, I found also an altar with this inscription: 'TO AN UNKNOWN GOD.' What therefore you worship in ignorance, this I announce to you. The God who made the world and all things in it, he, being Lord of heaven and earth, doesn't dwell in temples made with hands, neither is he served by men's hands, as though he needed anything, seeing he himself gives to all life and breath, and all things. He made from one blood every nation of men to dwell on all the surface of the earth, having determined appointed seasons, and the boundaries of their dwellings, that they should seek the Lord, if perhaps they might reach out for him and find him, though he is not far from each one of us. 'For in him we live, and move, and have our being.' As some of your own poets have said, 'For we are also his offspring.' Being then the offspring of God, we ought not to think that the Divine Nature is like gold, or silver, or stone, engraved by art and design of man. 30The times of ignorance therefore God overlooked. But now he commands that all people everywhere should repent, because he has appointed a day in which he will judge the world in righteousness by the man whom he has ordained; of which he has given assurance to all men, in that he has raised him from the dead." Now when they heard of the resurrection of the dead, some mocked; but others said, "We want to hear you again concerning this." (Acts 17:22;30-32) | 22保羅站在亞略巴古當中，說：眾位雅典人哪，我看你們凡事很敬畏鬼神。我遊行的時候，觀看你們所敬拜的，遇見一座壇，上面寫著未識之神。你們所不認識而敬拜的，我現在告訴你們。創造宇宙和其中萬物的神，既是天地的主，就不住人手所造的殿，也不用人手服事，好像缺少甚麼；自己倒將生命、氣息、萬物，賜給萬人。他從一本（有古卷作血脈）造出萬族的人，住在全地上，並且預先定準他們的年限和所住的疆界要叫他們尋求神，或者可以揣摩而得，其實他離我們各人不遠；我們生活、動作、存留，都在乎他。就如你們作詩的，有人說：我們也是他所生的。 我們既是神所生的，就不當以為神的神性像人用手藝、心思所雕刻的金、銀、石。 30世人蒙昧無知的時候，神並不監察，如今卻吩咐各處的人都要悔改。因為他已經定了日子，要藉著他所設立的人按公義審判天下，並且叫他從死裡復活，給萬人作可信的憑據。
眾人聽見從死裡復活的話，就有譏誚他的；又有人說：我們再聽你講這個罷！(使17:22;30-32) |
