使徒行傳 2:1
- 47
When the day of Pentecost came, they were all together in one place.
Suddenly a sound like the blowing of a violent wind came from heaven and filled the whole house where they were sitting.
They saw what seemed to be tongues of fire that separated and came to rest on each of them.
All of them were filled with the Holy Spirit and began to speak in other tongues as the Spirit enabled them.
Now there were staying in Jerusalem God-fearing Jews from every nation under heaven.
When they heard this sound, a crowd came together in bewilderment, because each one heard their own language being spoken.
Utterly amazed, they asked: "Aren't all these who are speaking Galileans?
Then how is it that each of us hears them in our native language?
Parthians, Medes and Elamites; residents of Mesopotamia, Judea and Cappadocia, Pontus and Asia,
Phrygia and Pamphylia, Egypt and the parts of Libya near Cyrene; visitors from Rome
(both Jews and converts to Judaism); Cretans and Arabs-we hear them declaring the wonders of God in our own tongues!"
Amazed and perplexed, they asked one another, "What does this mean?"
Some, however, made fun of them and said, "They have had too much wine."
Then Peter stood up with the Eleven, raised his voice and addressed the crowd: "Fellow Jews and all of you who live in Jerusalem, let me explain this to you; listen carefully to what I say.
These people are not drunk, as you suppose. It's only nine in the morning!
No, this is what was spoken by the prophet Joel:
" 'In the last days, God says, I will pour out my Spirit on all people. Your sons and daughters will prophesy, your young men will see visions, your old men will dream dreams.
Even on my servants, both men and women, I will pour out my Spirit in those days, and they will prophesy.
I will show wonders in the heavens above and signs on the earth below, blood and fire and billows of smoke.
The sun will be turned to darkness and the moon to blood before the coming of the great and glorious day of the Lord.
And everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved.'
"Fellow Israelites, listen to this: Jesus of Nazareth was a man accredited by God to you by miracles, wonders and signs, which God did among you through him, as you yourselves know.
This man was handed over to you by God's deliberate plan and foreknowledge; and you, with the help of wicked men, put him to death by nailing him to the cross.
But God raised him from the dead, freeing him from the agony of death, because it was impossible for death to keep its hold on him.
David said about him: " 'I saw the Lord always before me. Because he is at my right hand, I will not be shaken.
Therefore my heart is glad and my tongue rejoices; my body also will rest in hope,
because you will not abandon me to the realm of the dead, you will not let your holy one see decay.
You have made known to me the paths of life; you will fill me with joy in your presence.'
"Fellow Israelites, I can tell you confidently that the patriarch David died and was buried, and his tomb is here to this day.
But he was a prophet and knew that God had promised him on oath that he would place one of his descendants on his throne.
Seeing what was to come, he spoke of the resurrection of the Messiah, that he was not abandoned to the realm of the dead, nor did his body see decay.
God has raised this Jesus to life, and we are all witnesses of it.
Exalted to the right hand of God, he has received from the Father the promised Holy Spirit and has poured out what you now see and hear.
For David did not ascend to heaven, and yet he said, " 'The Lord said to my Lord: "Sit at my right hand
until I make your enemies a footstool for your feet." '
"Therefore let all Israel be assured of this: God has made this Jesus, whom you crucified, both Lord and Messiah."
When the people heard this, they were cut to the heart and said to Peter and the other apostles, "Brothers, what shall we do?"
Peter replied, "Repent and be baptized, every one of you, in the name of Jesus Christ for the forgiveness of your sins. And you will receive the gift of the Holy Spirit.
The promise is for you and your children and for all who are far off-for all whom the Lord our God will call."
With many other words he warned them; and he pleaded with them, "Save yourselves from this corrupt generation."
Those who accepted his message were baptized, and about three thousand were added to their number that day.
They devoted themselves to the apostles' teaching and to fellowship, to the breaking of bread and to prayer.
Everyone was filled with awe at the many wonders and signs performed by the apostles.
All the believers were together and had everything in common.
They sold property and possessions to give to anyone who had need.
Every day they continued to meet together in the temple courts. They broke bread in their homes and ate together with glad and sincere hearts,
praising God and enjoying the favor of all the people. And the Lord added to their number daily those who were being saved.
五旬節到了，門徒都聚集在一處。
忽然，從天上有響聲下來，好像一陣大風吹過，充滿了他們所坐的屋子，
又有舌頭如火焰顯現出來，分開落在他們各人頭上。
他們就都被聖靈充滿，按著聖靈所賜的口才說起別國的話來。
那時，有虔誠的猶太人從天下各國來，住在耶路撒冷。
這聲音一響，眾人都來聚集，各人聽見門徒用眾人的鄉談說話，就甚納悶；
都驚訝希奇說：「看哪，這說話的不都是加利利人嗎？
我們各人，怎麼聽見他們說我們生來所用的鄉談呢？
我們帕提亞人、瑪代人、以攔人，和住在米所波大米、猶太、加帕多家、本都、亞西亞、
弗呂家、旁非利亞、埃及的人，並靠近古利奈的呂彼亞一帶地方的人，從羅馬來的客旅中，或是猶太人，或是進猶太教的人，
革哩底和亞拉伯人，都聽見他們用我們的鄉談，講說神的大作為。」
眾人就都驚訝猜疑，彼此說：「這是什麼意思呢？」
還有人譏誚說：他們無非是新酒灌滿了。
彼得和十一個使徒站起，高聲說：「猶太人和一切住在耶路撒冷的人哪，這件事你們當知道，也當側耳聽我的話。
你們想這些人是醉了；其實不是醉了，因為時候剛到巳初。
這正是先知約珥所說的：
神說：在末後的日子，我要將我的靈澆灌凡有血氣的。你們的兒女要說預言；你們的少年人要見異象；老年人要做異夢。
在那些日子，我要將我的靈澆灌我的僕人和使女，他們就要說預言。
在天上、我要顯出奇事；在地下、我要顯出神蹟；有血，有火，有煙霧。
日頭要變為黑暗，月亮要變為血；這都在主大而明顯的日子未到以前。
到那時候，凡求告主名的，就必得救。
「以色列人哪，請聽我的話：神藉著拿撒勒人耶穌在你們中間施行異能、奇事神蹟，將他證明出來，這是你們自己知道的。
他既按著神的定旨先見被交與人，你們就藉著無法之人的手，把他釘在十字架上，殺了。
神卻將死的痛苦解釋了，叫他復活，因為他原不能被死拘禁。
大衛指著他說：我看見主常在我眼前；他在我右邊，叫我不至於搖動。
所以，我心裡歡喜，我的靈（原文作舌）快樂；並且我的肉身要安居在指望中。
因你必不將我的靈魂撇在陰間，也不叫你的聖者見朽壞。
你已將生命的道路指示我，必叫我因見你的面（或作：叫我在你面前）得著滿足的快樂。
「弟兄們！先祖大衛的事，我可以明明的對你們說：他死了，也葬埋了，並且他的墳墓直到今日還在我們這裡。
大衛既是先知，又曉得神曾向他起誓，要從他的後裔中立一位坐在他的寶座上，
就預先看明這事，講論基督復活說：他的靈魂不撇在陰間；他的肉身也不見朽壞。
這耶穌，神已經叫他復活了，我們都為這事作見證。
他既被神的右手高舉（或作：他既高舉在神的右邊），又從父受了所應許的聖靈，就把你們所看見所聽見的，澆灌下來。
大衛並沒有升到天上，但自己說：主對我主說：你坐在我的右邊，
等我使你仇敵作你的腳凳。
「故此，以色列全家當確實的知道，你們釘在十字架上的這位耶穌，神已經立他為主，為基督了。」
眾人聽見這話，覺得扎心，就對彼得和其餘的使徒說：「弟兄們，我們當怎樣行？」
彼得說：「你們各人要悔改，奉耶穌基督的名受洗，叫你們的罪得赦，就必領受所賜的聖靈；
因為這應許是給你們和你們的兒女，並一切在遠方的人，就是主我們神所召來的。」
彼得還用許多話作見證，勸勉他們說：「你們當救自己脫離這彎曲的世代。」
於是領受他話的人就受了洗。那一天，門徒約添了三千人，
都恆心遵守使徒的教訓，彼此交接，擘餅，祈禱。
眾人都懼怕；使徒又行了許多奇事神蹟。
信的人都在一處，凡物公用；
並且賣了田產，家業，照各人所需用的分給各人。
他們天天同心合意恆切的在殿裡，且在家中擘餅，存著歡喜、誠實的心用飯，
讚美神，得眾民的喜愛。主將得救的人天天加給他們。
歌羅西書 2:12
having been buried with him in baptism, in which you were also raised with him through your faith in the working of God, who raised him from the dead.
你們既受洗與他一同埋葬，也就在此與他一同復活，都因信那叫他從死裡復活神的功用。
提多書 3:5
he saved us, not because of righteous things we had done, but because of his mercy. He saved us through the washing of rebirth and renewal by the Holy Spirit,
他便救了我們，並不是因我們自己所行的義，乃是照他的憐憫，藉著重生的洗和聖靈的更新。
馬可福音 16:15
- 16
He said to them, "Go into all the world and preach the gospel to all creation.
Whoever believes and is baptized will be saved, but whoever does not believe will be condemned.
他又對他們說：「你們往普天下去，傳福音給萬民（萬民：原文作凡受造的）聽。
信而受洗的，必然得救；不信的，必被定罪。
路加福音 3:12
Even tax collectors came to be baptized. "Teacher," they asked, "what should we do?"
又有稅吏來要受洗，問他說：「夫子，我們當做什麼呢？」
約翰福音 1:33
And I myself did not know him, but the one who sent me to baptize with water told me, 'The man on whom you see the Spirit come down and remain is the one who will baptize with the Holy Spirit.'
我先前不認識他，只是那差我來用水施洗的、對我說：『你看見聖靈降下來，住在誰的身上，誰就是用聖靈施洗的。』
使徒行傳 2:41
Those who accepted his message were baptized, and about three thousand were added to their number that day.
於是領受他話的人就受了洗。那一天，門徒約添了三千人，
使徒行傳 4:31

禱告完了，聚會的地方震動，他們就都被聖靈充滿，放膽講論神的道。
使徒行傳 10:47
- 48
"Surely no one can stand in the way of their being baptized with water. They have received the Holy Spirit just as we have."
So he ordered that they be baptized in the name of Jesus Christ. Then they asked Peter to stay with them for a few days.
於是彼得說：「這些人既受了聖靈，與我們一樣，誰能禁止用水給他們施洗呢？」
就吩咐奉耶穌基督的名給他們施洗。他們又請彼得住了幾天。
使徒行傳 16:15
When she and the members of her household were baptized, she invited us to her home. "If you consider me a believer in the Lord," she said, "come and stay at my house." And she persuaded us.
他和他一家既領了洗，便求我們說：「你們若以為我是真信主的（或作：你們若以為我是忠心事主的），請到我家裡來住。於是強留我們。
羅馬書 8:9
- 11
You, however, are not in the realm of the flesh but are in the realm of the Spirit, if indeed the Spirit of God lives in you. And if anyone does not have the Spirit of Christ, they do not belong to Christ.
But if Christ is in you, then even though your body is subject to death because of sin, the Spirit gives life because of righteousness.
And if the Spirit of him who raised Jesus from the dead is living in you, he who raised Christ from the dead will also give life to your mortal bodies because of his Spirit who lives in you.
如果神的靈住在你們心裡，你們就不屬肉體，乃屬聖靈了。人若沒有基督的靈，就不是屬基督的。
基督若在你們心裡，身體就因罪而死，心靈卻因義而活。
然而，叫耶穌從死裡復活者的靈若住在你們心裡，那叫基督耶穌從死裡復活的，也必藉著住在你們心裡的聖靈，使你們必死的身體又活過來。
哥林多前書 15:29
Now if there is no resurrection, what will those do who are baptized for the dead? If the dead are not raised at all, why are people baptized for them?
不然，那些為死人受洗的，將來怎樣呢？若死人總不復活，因何為他們受洗呢？

Now Jesus learned that the Pharisees had heard that he was gaining and baptizing more disciples than John-

使徒行傳 8:36
- 38
As they traveled along the road, they came to some water and the eunuch said, "Look, here is water. What can stand in the way of my being baptized? "
And he gave orders to stop the chariot. Then both Philip and the eunuch went down into the water and Philip baptized him.
二人正往前走，到了有水的地方，太監說：「看哪，這裡有水，我受洗有什麼妨礙呢？」（有古卷在此有
腓利說：「你若是一心相信，就可以。」他回答說：「我信耶穌基督是神的兒子。」）
於是吩咐車站住，腓利和太監二人同下水裡去，腓利就給他施洗。
使徒行傳 16:33
At that hour of the night the jailer took them and washed their wounds; then immediately he and all his household were baptized.

羅馬書 6:3
Or don't you know that all of us who were baptized into Christ Jesus were baptized into his death?
豈不知我們這受洗歸入基督耶穌的人是受洗歸入他的死嗎？
羅馬書 6:1
- 23
What shall we say, then? Shall we go on sinning so that grace may increase?
By no means! We are those who have died to sin; how can we live in it any longer?
Or don't you know that all of us who were baptized into Christ Jesus were baptized into his death?
We were therefore buried with him through baptism into death in order that, just as Christ was raised from the dead through the glory of the Father, we too may live a new life.
For if we have been united with him in a death like his, we will certainly also be united with him in a resurrection like his.
For we know that our old self was crucified with him so that the body ruled by sin might be done away with, that we should no longer be slaves to sin-
because anyone who has died has been set free from sin.
Now if we died with Christ, we believe that we will also live with him.
For we know that since Christ was raised from the dead, he cannot die again; death no longer has mastery over him.
The death he died, he died to sin once for all; but the life he lives, he lives to God.
In the same way, count yourselves dead to sin but alive to God in Christ Jesus.
Therefore do not let sin reign in your mortal body so that you obey its evil desires.
Do not offer any part of yourself to sin as an instrument of wickedness, but rather offer yourselves to God as those who have been brought from death to life; and offer every part of yourself to him as an instrument of righteousness.
For sin shall no longer be your master, because you are not under the law, but under grace.
What then? Shall we sin because we are not under the law but under grace? By no means!
Don't you know that when you offer yourselves to someone as obedient slaves, you are slaves of the one you obey-whether you are slaves to sin, which leads to death, or to obedience, which leads to righteousness?
But thanks be to God that, though you used to be slaves to sin, you have come to obey from your heart the pattern of teaching that has now claimed your allegiance.
You have been set free from sin and have become slaves to righteousness.
I am using an example from everyday life because of your human limitations. Just as you used to offer yourselves as slaves to impurity and to ever-increasing wickedness, so now offer yourselves as slaves to righteousness leading to holiness.
When you were slaves to sin, you were free from the control of righteousness.
What benefit did you reap at that time from the things you are now ashamed of? Those things result in death!
But now that you have been set free from sin and have become slaves of God, the benefit you reap leads to holiness, and the result is eternal life.
For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord.
這樣，怎麼說呢？我們可以仍在罪中、叫恩典顯多嗎？
斷乎不可！我們在罪上死了的人豈可仍在罪中活著呢？
豈不知我們這受洗歸入基督耶穌的人是受洗歸入他的死嗎？
所以，我們藉著洗禮歸入死，和他一同埋葬，原是叫我們一舉一動有新生的樣式，像基督藉著父的榮耀從死裡復活一樣。
我們若在他死的形狀上與他聯合，也要在他復活的形狀上與他聯合；
因為知道我們的舊人和他同釘十字架，使罪身滅絕，叫我們不再作罪的奴僕；
因為已死的人是脫離了罪。
我們若是與基督同死，就信必與他同活。
因為知道基督既從死裡復活，就不再死，死也不再作他的主了。
他死是向罪死了，只有一次；他活是向神活著。
這樣，你們向罪也當看自己是死的；向神在基督耶穌裡，卻當看自己是活的。
所以，不要容罪在你們必死的身上作王，使你們順從身子的私慾。
也不要將你們的肢體獻給罪作不義的器具；倒要像從死裡復活的人，將自己獻給神，並將肢體作義的器具獻給神。
罪必不能作你們的主，因你們不在律法之下，乃在恩典之下。
這卻怎麼樣呢？我們在恩典之下，不在律法之下，就可以犯罪嗎？斷乎不可！
豈不曉得你們獻上自己作奴僕，順從誰，就作誰的奴僕嗎？或作罪的奴僕，以至於死；或作順命的奴僕，以至成義。
感謝神！因為你們從前雖然作罪的奴僕，現今卻從心裡順服了所傳給你們道理的模範。
你們既從罪裡得了釋放，就作了義的奴僕。
我因你們肉體的軟弱，就照人的常話對你們說。你們從前怎樣將肢體獻給不潔不法作奴僕，以至於不法；現今也要照樣將肢體獻給義作奴僕，以至於成聖。
因為你們作罪之奴僕的時候，就不被義約束了。
你們現今所看為羞恥的事，當日有什麼果子呢？那些事的結局就是死。
但現今，你們既從罪裡得了釋放，作了神的奴僕，就有成聖的果子，那結局就是永生。
因為罪的工價乃是死；惟有神的恩賜，在我們的主基督耶穌裡，乃是永生。
彼得前書 3:18
- 22
For Christ also suffered once for sins, the righteous for the unrighteous, to bring you to God. He was put to death in the body but made alive in the Spirit.
After being made alive, he went and made proclamation to the imprisoned spirits-
to those who were disobedient long ago when God waited patiently in the days of Noah while the ark was being built. In it only a few people, eight in all, were saved through water,
and this water symbolizes baptism that now saves you also-not the removal of dirt from the body but the pledge of a clear conscience toward God. It saves you by the resurrection of Jesus Christ,
who has gone into heaven and is at God's right hand-with angels, authorities and powers in submission to him.
因基督也曾一次為罪受苦（有古卷：受死），就是義的代替不義的，為要引我們到神面前。按著肉體說，他被治死；按著靈性說，他復活了。
他藉這靈曾去傳道給那些在監獄裡的靈聽，
就是那從前在挪亞預備方舟、神容忍等待的時候，不信從的人。當時進入方舟，藉著水得救的不多，只有八個人。
這水所表明的洗禮，現在藉著耶穌基督復活也拯救你們；這洗禮本不在乎除掉肉體的污穢，只求在神面前有無虧的良心。
耶穌已經進入天堂，在神的右邊；眾天使和有權柄的，並有能力的，都服從了他。
約翰福音 3:23
Now John also was baptizing at Aenon near Salim, because there was plenty of water, and people were coming and being baptized.
約翰在靠近撒冷的哀嫩也施洗；因為那裡水多，眾人都去受洗。
哥林多前書 1:17
For Christ did not send me to baptize, but to preach the gospel-not with wisdom and eloquence, lest the cross of Christ be emptied of its power.
基督差遣我，原不是為施洗，乃是為傳福音，並不用智慧的言語，免得基督的十字架落了空。
