約翰一書 4:1
- 6
Dear friends, do not believe every spirit, but test the spirits to see whether they are from God, because many false prophets have gone out into the world.
This is how you can recognize the Spirit of God: Every spirit that acknowledges that Jesus Christ has come in the flesh is from God,
but every spirit that does not acknowledge Jesus is not from God. This is the spirit of the antichrist, which you have heard is coming and even now is already in the world.
You, dear children, are from God and have overcome them, because the one who is in you is greater than the one who is in the world.
They are from the world and therefore speak from the viewpoint of the world, and the world listens to them.
We are from God, and whoever knows God listens to us; but whoever is not from God does not listen to us. This is how we recognize the Spirit of truth and the spirit of falsehood.
親愛的弟兄啊,一切的靈,你們不可都信,總要試驗那些靈是出於神的不是,因為世上有許多假先知已經出來了。
凡靈認耶穌基督是成了肉身來的,就是出於神的;從此你們可以認出神的靈來。
凡靈不認耶穌,就不是出於神;這是那敵基督者的靈。你們從前聽見他要來,現在已經在世上了。
小子們哪,你們是屬神的,並且勝了他們;因為那在你們裡面的,比那在世界上的更大。
他們是屬世界的,所以論世界的事,世人也聽從他們。
我們是屬神的,認識神的就聽從我們;不屬神的就不聽從我們。從此我們可以認出真理的靈和謬妄的靈來。
啟示錄 20:10
And the devil, who deceived them, was thrown into the lake of burning sulfur, where the beast and the false prophet had been thrown. They will be tormented day and night for ever and ever.
那迷惑他們的魔鬼被扔在硫磺的火湖裡,就是獸和假先知所在的地方。他們必晝夜受痛苦,直到永永遠遠。
馬太福音 7:15
"Watch out for false prophets. They come to you in sheep's clothing, but inwardly they are ferocious wolves.
「你們要防備假先知。他們到你們這裡來,外面披著羊皮,裡面卻是殘暴的狼。
馬太福音 24:24
For false messiahs and false prophets will appear and perform great signs and wonders to deceive, if possible, even the elect.
因為假基督、假先知將要起來,顯大神蹟、大奇事,倘若能行,連選民也就迷惑了。
哥林多後書 11:13
- 15
For such people are false apostles, deceitful workers, masquerading as apostles of Christ.
And no wonder, for Satan himself masquerades as an angel of light.
It is not surprising, then, if his servants also masquerade as servants of righteousness. Their end will be what their actions deserve.
那等人是假使徒,行事詭詐,裝作基督使徒的模樣。
這也不足為怪,因為連撒但也裝作光明的天使。
所以他的差役,若裝作仁義的差役,也不算希奇。他們的結局必然照著他們的行為。
彼得後書 2:1
- 3
But there were also false prophets among the people, just as there will be false teachers among you. They will secretly introduce destructive heresies, even denying the sovereign Lord who bought them-bringing swift destruction on themselves.
Many will follow their depraved conduct and will bring the way of truth into disrepute.
In their greed these teachers will exploit you with fabricated stories. Their condemnation has long been hanging over them, and their destruction has not been sleeping.
從前在百姓中有假先知起來,將來在你們中間也必有假師傅,私自引進陷害人的異端,連買他們的主他們也不承認,自取速速的滅亡。
將有許多人隨從他們邪淫的行為,便叫真道因他們的緣故被毀謗。
他們因有貪心,要用捏造的言語在你們身上取利。他們的刑罰,自古以來並不遲延;他們的滅亡也必速速來到(原文作不打盹)。
彼得後書 2:1
But there were also false prophets among the people, just as there will be false teachers among you. They will secretly introduce destructive heresies, even denying the sovereign Lord who bought them-bringing swift destruction on themselves.
從前在百姓中有假先知起來,將來在你們中間也必有假師傅,私自引進陷害人的異端,連買他們的主他們也不承認,自取速速的滅亡。
約翰一書 4:1
Dear friends, do not believe every spirit, but test the spirits to see whether they are from God, because many false prophets have gone out into the world.
親愛的弟兄啊,一切的靈,你們不可都信,總要試驗那些靈是出於神的不是,因為世上有許多假先知已經出來了。
啟示錄 2:2
I know your deeds, your hard work and your perseverance. I know that you cannot tolerate wicked people, that you have tested those who claim to be apostles but are not, and have found them false.
我知道你的行為、勞碌、忍耐,也知道你不能容忍惡人。你也曾試驗那自稱為使徒卻不是使徒的,看出他們是假的來。
啟示錄 22:18
- 19
I warn everyone who hears the words of the prophecy of this scroll: If anyone adds anything to them, God will add to that person the plagues described in this scroll.
And if anyone takes words away from this scroll of prophecy, God will take away from that person any share in the tree of life and in the Holy City, which are described in this scroll.
我向一切聽見這書上預言的作見證,若有人在這預言上加添什麼,神必將寫在這書上的災禍加在他身上;
這書上的預言,若有人刪去什麼,神必從這書上所寫的生命樹和聖城刪去他的分。
申命記 18:20
But a prophet who presumes to speak in my name anything I have not commanded, or a prophet who speaks in the name of other gods, is to be put to death."
若有先知擅敢託我的名說我所未曾吩咐他說的話,或是奉別神的名說話,那先知就必治死。』
以賽亞書 44:25
who foils the signs of false prophets and makes fools of diviners, who overthrows the learning of the wise and turns it into nonsense,
使說假話的兆頭失效,使占卜的癲狂,使智慧人退後,使他的知識變為愚拙;
馬可福音 7:6
- 9
He replied, "Isaiah was right when he prophesied about you hypocrites; as it is written: " 'These people honor me with their lips, but their hearts are far from me.
They worship me in vain; their teachings are merely human rules.' ote style="f" caller="+"> 7:7 Isaiah 29:13
You have let go of the commands of God and are holding on to human traditions."
And he continued, "You have a fine way of setting aside the commands of God in order to observe your own traditions!
耶穌說:「以賽亞指著你們假冒為善之人所說的預言是不錯的。如經上說:這百姓用嘴唇尊敬我,心卻遠離我。
他們將人的吩咐當做道理教導人,所以拜我也是枉然。
你們是離棄神的誡命,拘守人的遺傳」;
又說:「你們誠然是廢棄神的誡命,要守自己的遺傳。
哥林多前書 14:33
For God is not a God of disorder but of peace-as in all the congregations of the Lord's people.
因為神不是叫人混亂,乃是叫人安靜。
希伯來書 13:5
Keep your lives free from the love of money and be content with what you have, because God has said, "Never will I leave you; never will I forsake you."
你們存心不可貪愛錢財,要以自己所有的為足;因為主曾說:『我總不撇下你,也不丟棄你。』
耶利米書 23:26
How long will this continue in the hearts of these lying prophets, who prophesy the delusions of their own minds?
說假預言的先知,就是預言本心詭詐的先知,他們這樣存心要到幾時呢?
哥林多後書 11:14
And no wonder, for Satan himself masquerades as an angel of light.
這也不足為怪,因為連撒但也裝作光明的天使。
猶大書 1:3
Dear friends, although I was very eager to write to you about the salvation we share, I felt compelled to write and urge you to contend for the faith that was once for all entrusted to God's holy people.
親愛的弟兄啊,我想盡心寫信給你們,論我們同得救恩的時候,就不得不寫信勸你們,要為從前一次交付聖徒的真道竭力的爭辯。
啟示錄 14:10
- 11
they, too, will drink the wine of God's fury, which has been poured full strength into the cup of his wrath. They will be tormented with burning sulfur in the presence of the holy angels and of the Lamb.
And the smoke of their torment will rise for ever and ever. There will be no rest day or night for those who worship the beast and its image, or for anyone who receives the mark of its name."
這人也必喝神大怒的酒;此酒斟在神忿怒的杯中純一不雜。他要在聖天使和羔羊面前,在火與硫磺之中受痛苦。
他受痛苦的煙往上冒,直到永永遠遠。那些拜獸和獸像,受他名之印記的,晝夜不得安寧。」
啟示錄 19:20
But the beast was captured, and with it the false prophet who had performed the signs on its behalf. With these signs he had deluded those who had received the mark of the beast and worshiped its image. The two of them were thrown alive into the fiery lake of burning sulfur.
那獸被擒拿;那在獸面前曾行奇事、迷惑受獸印記和拜獸像之人的假先知,也與獸同被擒拿。他們兩個就活活的被扔在燒著硫磺的火湖裡;
耶利米書 23:21
I did not send these prophets, yet they have run with their message; I did not speak to them, yet they have prophesied.
我沒有打發那些先知,他們竟自奔跑;我沒有對他們說話,他們竟自預言。
馬太福音 7:21
"Not everyone who says to me, 'Lord, Lord,' will enter the kingdom of heaven, but only the one who does the will of my Father who is in heaven.
「凡稱呼我『主啊,主啊』的人不能都進天國;惟獨遵行我天父旨意的人才能進去。
羅馬書 16:18
For such people are not serving our Lord Christ, but their own appetites. By smooth talk and flattery they deceive the minds of naive people.
因為這樣的人不服事我們的主基督,只服事自己的肚腹,用花言巧語誘惑那些老實人的心。
加拉太書 1:8
But even if we or an angel from heaven should preach a gospel other than the one we preached to you, let them be under God's curse!
但無論是我們,是天上來的使者,若傳福音給你們,與我們所傳給你們的不同,他就應當被咒詛。
提摩太後書 4:2
- 4
Preach the word; be prepared in season and out of season; correct, rebuke and encourage-with great patience and careful instruction.
For the time will come when people will not put up with sound doctrine. Instead, to suit their own desires, they will gather around them a great number of teachers to say what their itching ears want to hear.
They will turn their ears away from the truth and turn aside to myths.
務要傳道,無論得時不得時,總要專心;並用百般的忍耐,各樣的教訓,責備人、警戒人、勸勉人。
因為時候要到,人必厭煩純正的道理,耳朵發癢,就隨從自己的情慾,增添好些師傅,
並且掩耳不聽真道,偏向荒渺的言語。
申命記 18:20
- 22
But a prophet who presumes to speak in my name anything I have not commanded, or a prophet who speaks in the name of other gods, is to be put to death."
You may say to yourselves, "How can we know when a message has not been spoken by the Lord?"
If what a prophet proclaims in the name of the Lord does not take place or come true, that is a message the Lord has not spoken. That prophet has spoken presumptuously, so do not be alarmed.
若有先知擅敢託我的名說我所未曾吩咐他說的話,或是奉別神的名說話,那先知就必治死。』
你心裡若說:『耶和華所未曾吩咐的話,我們怎能知道呢?』
先知託耶和華的名說話,所說的若不成就,也無效驗,這就是耶和華所未曾吩咐的,是那先知擅自說的,你不要怕他。」
耶利米書 5:30
- 31
"A horrible and shocking thing has happened in the land:
The prophets prophesy lies, the priests rule by their own authority, and my people love it this way. But what will you do in the end?
國中有可驚駭、可憎惡的事:
就是先知說假預言,祭司藉他們把持權柄;我的百姓也喜愛這些事,到了結局你們怎樣行呢?
馬太福音 7:21
- 23
"Not everyone who says to me, 'Lord, Lord,' will enter the kingdom of heaven, but only the one who does the will of my Father who is in heaven.
Many will say to me on that day, 'Lord, Lord, did we not prophesy in your name and in your name drive out demons and in your name perform many miracles?'
Then I will tell them plainly, 'I never knew you. Away from me, you evildoers!'
「凡稱呼我『主啊,主啊』的人不能都進天國;惟獨遵行我天父旨意的人才能進去。
當那日必有許多人對我說:『主啊,主啊,我們不是奉你的名傳道,奉你的名趕鬼,奉你的名行許多異能嗎?』
我就明明的告訴他們說:『我從來不認識你們,你們這些作惡的人,離開我去吧!』」
加拉太書 5:22
- 26
But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, forbearance, kindness, goodness, faithfulness,
gentleness and self-control. Against such things there is no law.
Those who belong to Christ Jesus have crucified the flesh with its passions and desires.
Since we live by the Spirit, let us keep in step with the Spirit.
Let us not become conceited, provoking and envying each other.
聖靈所結的果子,就是仁愛、喜樂、和平、忍耐、恩慈、良善、信實、
溫柔、節制。這樣的事沒有律法禁止。
凡屬基督耶穌的人,是已經把肉體連肉體的邪情私慾同釘在十字架上了。
我們若是靠聖靈得生,就當靠聖靈行事。
不要貪圖虛名,彼此惹氣,互相嫉妒。
彼得後書 2:1
- 2

Many will follow their depraved conduct and will bring the way of truth into disrepute.
從前在百姓中有假先知起來,將來在你們中間也必有假師傅,私自引進陷害人的異端,連買他們的主他們也不承認,自取速速的滅亡。
將有許多人隨從他們邪淫的行為,便叫真道因他們的緣故被毀謗。
詩篇 55:21
His talk is smooth as butter, yet war is in his heart; his words are more soothing than oil, yet they are drawn swords.
他的口如奶油光滑,他的心卻懷著爭戰;他的話比油柔和,其實是拔出來的刀。
馬太福音 7:15
- 16
"Watch out for false prophets. They come to you in sheep's clothing, but inwardly they are ferocious wolves.
By their fruit you will recognize them. Do people pick grapes from thornbushes, or figs from thistles?
「你們要防備假先知。他們到你們這裡來,外面披著羊皮,裡面卻是殘暴的狼。
憑著他們的果子,就可以認出他們來。荊棘上豈能摘葡萄呢?蒺藜裡豈能摘無花果呢?
約翰福音 8:44
You belong to your father, the devil, and you want to carry out your father's desires. He was a murderer from the beginning, not holding to the truth, for there is no truth in him. When he lies, he speaks his native language, for he is a liar and the father of lies.
你們是出於你們的父魔鬼,你們父的私慾你們偏要行。他從起初是殺人的,不守真理,因他心裡沒有真理。他說謊是出於自己;因他本來是說謊的,也是說謊之人的父。
約翰福音 14:6
Jesus answered, "I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.
耶穌說「我就是道路、真理、生命;若不藉著我,沒有人能到父那裡去。
加拉太書 1:6
- 9
I am astonished that you are so quickly deserting the one who called you to live in the grace of Christ and are turning to a different gospel-
which is really no gospel at all. Evidently some people are throwing you into confusion and are trying to pervert the gospel of Christ.
But even if we or an angel from heaven should preach a gospel other than the one we preached to you, let them be under God's curse!
As we have already said, so now I say again: If anybody is preaching to you a gospel other than what you accepted, let them be under God's curse!
我希奇你們這麼快離開那藉著基督之恩召你們的,去從別的福音。
那並不是福音,不過有些人攪擾你們,要把基督的福音更改了。
但無論是我們,是天上來的使者,若傳福音給你們,與我們所傳給你們的不同,他就應當被咒詛。
我們已經說了,現在又說,若有人傳福音給你們,與你們所領受的不同,他就應當被咒詛。
以弗所書 6:11
Put on the full armor of God, so that you can take your stand against the devil's schemes.
要穿戴神所賜的全副軍裝,就能抵擋魔鬼的詭計。
提摩太後書 4:3
- 4
For the time will come when people will not put up with sound doctrine. Instead, to suit their own desires, they will gather around them a great number of teachers to say what their itching ears want to hear.
They will turn their ears away from the truth and turn aside to myths.
因為時候要到,人必厭煩純正的道理,耳朵發癢,就隨從自己的情慾,增添好些師傅,
並且掩耳不聽真道,偏向荒渺的言語。
希伯來書 13:5
- 6
Keep your lives free from the love of money and be content with what you have, because God has said, "Never will I leave you; never will I forsake you."
So we say with confidence, "The Lord is my helper; I will not be afraid. What can mere mortals do to me?"
你們存心不可貪愛錢財,要以自己所有的為足;因為主曾說:『我總不撇下你,也不丟棄你。』
所以我們可以放膽說:主是幫助我的,我必不懼怕;人能把我怎麼樣呢?
以賽亞書 8:19
When someone tells you to consult mediums and spiritists, who whisper and mutter, should not a people inquire of their God? Why consult the dead on behalf of the living?
有人對你們說:「當求問那些交鬼的和行巫術的,就是聲音綿蠻,言語微細的。」你們便回答說:「百姓不當求問自己的神嗎?豈可為活人求問死人呢?」
耶利米書 14:14
- 16
Then the Lord said to me, "The prophets are prophesying lies in my name. I have not sent them or appointed them or spoken to them. They are prophesying to you false visions, divinations, idolatries and the delusions of their own minds.
Therefore this is what the Lord says about the prophets who are prophesying in my name: I did not send them, yet they are saying, 'No sword or famine will touch this land.' Those same prophets will perish by sword and famine.
And the people they are prophesying to will be thrown out into the streets of Jerusalem because of the famine and sword. There will be no one to bury them, their wives, their sons and their daughters. I will pour out on them the calamity they deserve.
耶和華對我說:「那些先知託我的名說假預言,我並沒有打發他們,沒有吩咐他們,也沒有對他們說話;他們向你們預言的,乃是虛假的異象和占卜,並虛無的事,以及本心的詭詐。
所以耶和華如此說:論到託我名說預言的那些先知,我並沒有打發他們;他們還說這地不能有刀劍饑荒,其實那些先知必被刀劍饑荒滅絕。
聽他們說預言的百姓必因饑荒刀劍拋在耶路撒冷的街道上,無人葬埋。他們連妻子帶兒女,都是如此。我必將他們的惡倒在他們身上(或作:我必使他們罪惡的報應臨到他們身上)。」
耶利米書 23:14
And among the prophets of Jerusalem I have seen something horrible: They commit adultery and live a lie. They strengthen the hands of evildoers, so that not one of them turns from their wickedness. They are all like Sodom to me; the people of Jerusalem are like Gomorrah."
我在耶路撒冷的先知中曾見可憎惡的事;他們行姦淫,做事虛妄,又堅固惡人的手,甚至無人回頭離開他的惡。他們在我面前都像所多瑪;耶路撒冷的居民都像蛾摩拉。
撒迦利亞書 13:1
- 5
"On that day a fountain will be opened to the house of David and the inhabitants of Jerusalem, to cleanse them from sin and impurity.
"On that day, I will banish the names of the idols from the land, and they will be remembered no more," declares the Lord Almighty. "I will remove both the prophets and the spirit of impurity from the land.
And if anyone still prophesies, their father and mother, to whom they were born, will say to them, 'You must die, because you have told lies in the Lord's name.' Then their own parents will stab the one who prophesies.
"On that day every prophet will be ashamed of their prophetic vision. They will not put on a prophet's garment of hair in order to deceive.
Each will say, 'I am not a prophet. I am a farmer; the land has been my livelihood since my youth. '
「那日,必給大衛家和耶路撒冷的居民開一個泉源,洗除罪惡與污穢。」
萬軍之耶和華說:「那日,我必從地上除滅偶像的名,不再被人記念;也必使這地不再有假先知與污穢的靈。
若再有人說預言,生他的父母必對他說:『你不得存活,因為你託耶和華的名說假預言。』生他的父母在他說預言的時候,要將他刺透。
那日,凡作先知說預言的必因他所論的異象羞愧,不再穿毛衣哄騙人。
他必說:『我不是先知,我是耕地的;我從幼年作人的奴僕。』
馬太福音 15:14
Leave them; they are blind guides. If the blind lead the blind, both will fall into a pit."
任憑他們吧!他們是瞎眼領路的;若是瞎子領瞎子,兩個人都要掉在坑裡。」
路加福音 12:36
- 38
like servants waiting for their master to return from a wedding banquet, so that when he comes and knocks they can immediately open the door for him.
It will be good for those servants whose master finds them watching when he comes. Truly I tell you, he will dress himself to serve, will have them recline at the table and will come and wait on them.
It will be good for those servants whose master finds them ready, even if he comes in the middle of the night or toward daybreak.
自己好像僕人等候主人從婚姻的筵席上回來。他來到,叩門,就立刻給他開門。
主人來了,看見僕人警醒,那僕人就有福了。我實在告訴你們,主人必叫他們坐席,自己束上帶,進前伺候他們。
或是二更天來,或是三更天來,看見僕人這樣,那僕人就有福了。
哥林多後書 11:10
- 13
As surely as the truth of Christ is in me, nobody in the regions of Achaia will stop this boasting of mine.
Why? Because I do not love you? God knows I do!
And I will keep on doing what I am doing in order to cut the ground from under those who want an opportunity to be considered equal with us in the things they boast about.
For such people are false apostles, deceitful workers, masquerading as apostles of Christ.
既有基督的誠實在我裡面,就無人能在亞該亞一帶地方阻擋我這自誇。
為什麼呢?是因我不愛你們嗎?這有神知道。
我現在所做的,後來還要做,為要斷絕那些尋機會人的機會,使他們在所誇的事上也不過與我們一樣。
那等人是假使徒,行事詭詐,裝作基督使徒的模樣。
加拉太書 1:9
As we have already said, so now I say again: If anybody is preaching to you a gospel other than what you accepted, let them be under God's curse!
我們已經說了,現在又說,若有人傳福音給你們,與你們所領受的不同,他就應當被咒詛。
以弗所書 6:10
- 18
Finally, be strong in the Lord and in his mighty power.
Put on the full armor of God, so that you can take your stand against the devil's schemes.
For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms.
Therefore put on the full armor of God, so that when the day of evil comes, you may be able to stand your ground, and after you have done everything, to stand.
Stand firm then, with the belt of truth buckled around your waist, with the breastplate of righteousness in place,
and with your feet fitted with the readiness that comes from the gospel of peace.
In addition to all this, take up the shield of faith, with which you can extinguish all the flaming arrows of the evil one.
Take the helmet of salvation and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God.
And pray in the Spirit on all occasions with all kinds of prayers and requests. With this in mind, be alert and always keep on praying for all the Lord's people.
我還有末了的話:你們要靠著主,倚賴他的大能大力作剛強的人。
要穿戴神所賜的全副軍裝,就能抵擋魔鬼的詭計。
因我們並不是與屬血氣的爭戰(原文作摔跤;下同),乃是與那些執政的、掌權的、管轄這幽暗世界的,以及天空屬靈氣的惡魔爭戰。
所以,要拿起神所賜的全副軍裝,好在磨難的日子抵擋仇敵,並且成就了一切,還能站立得住。
所以要站穩了,用真理當作帶子束腰,用公義當作護心鏡遮胸,
又用平安的福音當作預備走路的鞋穿在腳上。
此外,又拿著信德當作藤牌,可以滅盡那惡者一切的火箭;
並戴上救恩的頭盔,拿著聖靈的寶劍,就是神的道;
靠著聖靈,隨時多方禱告祈求;並要在此警醒不倦,為眾聖徒祈求,
彼得後書 2:3
In their greed these teachers will exploit you with fabricated stories. Their condemnation has long been hanging over them, and their destruction has not been sleeping.
他們因有貪心,要用捏造的言語在你們身上取利。他們的刑罰,自古以來並不遲延;他們的滅亡也必速速來到(原文作不打盹)。
彼得後書 2:2
Many will follow their depraved conduct and will bring the way of truth into disrepute.
將有許多人隨從他們邪淫的行為,便叫真道因他們的緣故被毀謗。
啟示錄 13:13
- 14
And it performed great signs, even causing fire to come down from heaven to the earth in full view of the people.
Because of the signs it was given power to perform on behalf of the first beast, it deceived the inhabitants of the earth. It ordered them to set up an image in honor of the beast who was wounded by the sword and yet lived.
又行大奇事,甚至在人面前,叫火從天降在地上。
他因賜給他權柄在獸面前能行奇事,就迷惑住在地上的人,說:「要給那受刀傷還活著的獸作個像。」
