ℹ️ This corpus has no verse-level morphological tagging. Lemmas come mainly from word-level tagging of other books in the same language (not from this verse), falling back to dictionary form-matching for the rest. Rare homographs can still be misread; verify against the original and a specialist lexicon where precision matters.
ℹ️ The Chinese and English alongside are this site's own translation, made directly from the original text on this page (not the CUV or the WEB, which follow the Masoretic Text and a different textual tradition).
15:318
Τὸ δὲ δεινὸν, ὅτι κελευσθέντες οὕτως ἐπὶ τοῖς ἁμαρτάνουσι θρηνεῖν, οὐδὲ ἐπὶ τοῖς οἰκείοις τινὰ ἐπιδεικνύμεθα μετάνοιαν, ἀλλ' ἀναλγήτως πταίοντες διακείμεθα, καὶ πάντων μᾶλλον φροντίζομεν, καὶ πάντα λογιζόμεθα μᾶλλον ἢ τὰ οἰκεῖα ἁμαρτήματα
But the terrible thing is that, though commanded thus to lament over those who sin, we show no repentance even over our own sins, but are disposed to stumble without feeling, and are anxious about everything else, and reckon up everything else rather than our own sins.
可怕的是,我們雖被吩咐要為那些犯罪的人如此哀慟,卻連為自己的罪也不顯出絲毫悔改,反倒麻木不仁地跌倒,凡事都掛慮,凡事都計算,唯獨不顧念自己的罪。
15:319
Διὰ τοῦτο χαίρομεν χαρὰν τὴν ἀνόνητον, τὴν τοῦ κόσμου, τὴν εὐθέως σβεννυμένην, τὴν μυρίας τίκτουσαν λύπας
For this reason we rejoice with a profitless joy, the joy of the world, which is quickly quenched and which begets countless griefs.
正因如此,我們所歡喜的乃是那無益的喜樂,就是屬世的喜樂,轉眼即滅,且生出無數的憂愁。
15:320
Λυπηθῶμεν τοίνυν λύπην χαρᾶς μητέρα, καὶ μὴ ἡσθῶμεν χαρὰν λύπην τίκτουσαν·
Let us therefore grieve with a grief that is the mother of joy, and let us not delight in a joy that begets grief.
所以我們要以那作喜樂之母的憂傷來憂傷,不要以那生出憂愁的喜樂來歡喜;
15:321
ἀφῶμεν δάκρυα σπείροντα πολλὴν ἡδονὴν, καὶ μὴ γελῶμεν γέλωτα βρυγμὸν ἡμῖν ὀδόντων τίκτοντα·
Let us shed tears that sow much pleasure, and let us not laugh a laughter that begets for us the gnashing of teeth.
我們要流那撒下許多快樂的眼淚,不要發那為我們生出咬牙切齒的笑;
15:322
θλιβῶμεν θλῖψιν, ἀφ' ἧς ἄνεσις βλαστάνει, καὶ μὴ ζητῶμεν τρυφὴν, ἀφ' ἧς πολλὴ θλῖψις καὶ ὀδύνη τίκτεται·
Let us be afflicted with an affliction from which relief springs up, and let us not seek a luxury from which much affliction and pain are born.
我們要受那生出安舒的患難,不要尋求那生出許多患難與痛苦的宴樂;
15:323
ἐπὶ τῆς γῆς μικρὸν πονήσωμεν, ἵνα τρυφήσωμεν διηνεκῶς ἐν τοῖς οὐρανοῖς·
Let us toil a little upon the earth, that we may take our delight perpetually in the heavens.
我們要在地上稍微勞苦,好叫我們在天上永遠享福;
15:324
ἐν τῷ ἐπικήρῳ βίῳ θλίψωμεν ἑαυτοὺς, ἵνα ἐν τῷ ἀπείρῳ τύχωμεν ἀνέσεως·
In this perishable life let us afflict ourselves, that in the boundless one we may obtain relief.
在這必朽的生命裡我們要苦待自己,好叫我們在那無盡的生命裡得著安舒;
15:325
μὴ διαχυθῶμεν ἐν τῷ βραχεῖ τούτῳ, ἵνα μὴ στενάξωμεν ἐν τῷ ἀπείρῳ
Let us not give ourselves over to dissipation in this brief span, lest we groan in the boundless one.
在這短暫的時光裡我們不要放縱自己,免得在那無盡的永世裡歎息。
15:326
Οὐχ ὁρᾶτε. πόσοι καὶ ἐνταῦθα θλίβονται βιωτικῶν ἕνεκεν
Do you not see how many even here are afflicted for the sake of the affairs of this life?
你們豈沒有看見嗎?在這裡有多少人為著今生的事務受苦。
15:327
πραγμάτων; Ἐννόησον ὅτι καὶ σὺ εἷς ἐξ ἐκείνων εἶ, καὶ φέρε τὴν θλῖψιν καὶ τὴν ὀδύνην, τῇ ἐλπίδι τῶν μελλόντων τρεφόμενος·
Consider that you too are one of these, and bear the affliction and the pain, nourished by the hope of the things to come.
你當想想,你也是他們中的一員,就要靠著對將來之事的盼望為滋養,忍受這患難與痛苦;
15:328
οὐκ εἶ σὺ τοῦ Παύλου βελτίων οὐδὲ τοῦ Πέτρου, τῶν οὐδέποτε ἀνέσεως τυχόντων, τῶν ἐν λιμῷ καὶ δίψει καὶ γυμνότητι τὸν πάντα βίον διεξελθόντων
You are not better than Paul, nor than Peter, who never obtained relief, who passed their whole life in hunger and thirst and nakedness.
你並不比保羅、也不比彼得更強,他們從未得著安舒,一生都在飢餓、乾渴、赤身中度過。
15:329
Εἰ βούλει τῶν αὐτῶν ἐκείνοις τυχεῖν, τί τὴν ἐναντίαν ὁδεύεις ὁδόν; εἰ βούλει πρὸς τὴν πό. λιν ἀπαντῆσαι ἐκείνην, ἧς ἐκεῖνοι κατηξιώθησαν, ἐκείνην βάδιζε τὴν ὁδὸν τὴν ἐκεῖ φέρουσαν
If you wish to obtain the same things as they, why do you travel the contrary road? If you wish to arrive at that city of which they were counted worthy, walk that road which leads thither.
你若願得著他們所得的,為何要走那相反的道路呢?你若願抵達他們被算為配得的那城,就當行那通往那裡的路。
15:330
Οὐ φέρει ἡ τῆς ἀνέσεως ὁδὸς ἐκεῖ, ἀλλ' ἡ τῆς θλίψεως·
The road of ease does not lead thither, but the road of affliction.
安逸的路不通往那裡,患難的路才通往那裡;
15:331
ἐκείνη εὐρύχωρος, αὕτη στενή
That one is broad, this one is narrow.
那一條是寬闊的,這一條是狹窄的。
15:332
Ταύτην βαδίζωμεν, ἵνα τύχωμεν τῆς αἰωνίου ζωῆς ἐν Χριστῷ Ἰησοῦ τῷ Κυρίῳ ἡμῶν, μεθ' οὗ τῷ Πατρὶ ἅμα τῷ ἁγίῳ Πνεύματι δόξα, κράτος, τιμὴ, νῦν καὶ ἀεὶ, καὶ εἰς τοὺς αἰῶνας τῶν αἰώνων
Let us walk this one, that we may attain unto eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord, with whom to the Father together with the Holy Spirit be glory, might, honour, now and ever, and unto the ages of ages. Amen.
我們要行這條路,好叫我們在我們的主基督耶穌裡得著永生;願榮耀、權能、尊貴歸與祂,並歸與父和聖靈,從今直到永遠,世世無盡。阿們。
