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).
2:170
Ἀλλὰ νῦν πᾶσα ἀνομία ἐμφράξει τὸ στόμα αὐτῆς. Εἰ γὰρ καὶ διὰ σὲ ταῦτα λέγοιεν, ἀλλὰ ταχέως αὐτοὺς διδάξεις διὰ τῶν ἔργων ὅτι οὐ χρὴ τὴν σύνεσιν ἡλικίᾳ κρίνειν, οὐδὲ τὸν πρεσβύτην ἀπὸ τῆς πολιᾶς δοκιμάζειν, οὐδὲ τὸν νέον πάντως ἀπείργειν τῆς τοιαύτης διακονίας, ἀλλὰ τὸν νεόφυτον, πολὺ δὲ ἀμφοτέρων τὸ μέσον
But now all iniquity will stop her mouth. For even if they should say these things on your account, you will quickly teach them by your deeds that one ought not to judge understanding by age, nor to assess the elder by his gray hair, nor altogether to bar the young man from such ministry, but only the newly converted; and there is a great difference between the two.
但如今,一切的不義都要塞住自己的口。因為即使他們為你的緣故說這些話,你也必很快藉著行為教導他們:不可憑年歲來判斷人的見識,不可憑白髮來評定長者,也不可一概攔阻年輕人擔此職事,當攔阻的乃是初信者;而這兩者之間是大有分別的。
