← ch. 41ch. 43 →
42:1
Οἱ ἀπόστολοι ἡμῖν εὐηγγελίσθησαν ἀπὸ τοῦ κυρίου Ἰησοῦ Χριστοῦ, Ἰησοῦς ὁ Χριστὸς ἀπὸ τοῦ θεοῦ ἐξεπέμφθη
The apostles were given the gospel for us by the Lord Jesus Christ; Jesus the Christ was sent forth from God.
眾使徒為我們的緣故，從主耶穌基督領受了福音；耶穌基督乃是從神差遣而來。
42:2
ὁ Χριστος οὖν ἀπὸ τοῦ θεοῦ καὶ οἱ ἀπόστολοι ἀπὸ τοῦ Χριστοῦ: ἐγένοντο οὖν ἀμφότερα εὐτάκτως ἐκ θελήματος θεοῦ
Christ, therefore, is from God, and the apostles are from Christ; both, then, came to pass in due order by the will of God.
所以基督是從神而來，眾使徒是從基督而來；這二者都是按著神的旨意，照正當的次序成就的。
42:3
παραγγελίας οὖν λαβόντες καὶ πληροφορηθέντες διὰ τῆς ἀναστάσεως τοῦ κυρίου ἡμῶν Ἰησοῦ Χριστοῦ καὶ πιστωθέντες ἐν τῷ λόγῳ τοῦ θεοῦ, μετὰ πληροφορίας πνεύματος ἁγίου ἐξῆλθον εὐαγγελιζόμενοι, τὴν βασιλείαν τοῦ θεοῦ μέλλειν ἔρχεσθαι
Having received their charge, and being fully assured through the resurrection of our Lord Jesus Christ, and confirmed in the word of God, they went forth with the full assurance of the Holy Spirit, preaching the good news that the kingdom of God was about to come.
他們既領了使命，又藉著我們的主耶穌基督的復活得了完全的確信，並在神的話上得了堅固，就帶著聖靈所賜的完全把握出去，傳揚神的國將要來臨的福音。
42:4
κατὰ χώρας οὖν καὶ πόλεις κηρύσσοντες καθίστανον τὰς ἀπαρχὰς αὐτῶν, δοκιμάσαντες τῷ πνεύματι, εἰς ἐπισκόπους καὶ διακόνους τῶν μελλόντων πιστεύειν
Preaching, then, throughout the countries and cities, they appointed their firstfruits, having tested them by the Spirit, to be bishops and deacons of those who should believe.
於是他們在各地各城傳道，藉著聖靈察驗，立他們初熟的果子作監督和執事，治理那些將要信主的人。
42:5
καὶ τοῦτο οὐ καινῶς: ἐκ γὰρ δὴ πολλῶν χρόνων ἐγέγραπτο περὶ ἐπισκόπων καὶ διακόνων. οὕτως γάρ που λέγει ἡ γραφή: Καταστήσω τοὺς ἐπισκόπους αὐτῶν ἐν δικαιοσύνῃ καὶ τοὺς διακόνους αὐτῶν ἐν πίστει
And this was no novelty; for many ages before it had been written concerning bishops and deacons. For thus says the Scripture somewhere: "I will establish their bishops in righteousness and their deacons in faith."
這並非新奇的事；因為早在許多世代以前，論到監督和執事就有記載了。經上有一處這樣說：「我必在公義中立他們的監督，在信心中立他們的執事。」
