講章 
聖經 18 And when they came to him, he said to them:
“You yourselves know how I lived among you the whole time from the first
day that I set foot in Asia,
19 serving the Lord with all humility and with tears and with trials that
happened to me through the plots of the Jews;
20 how I did not shrink from declaring to you anything that was profitable, and
teaching you in public and from house to house,
21 testifying both to Jews and to Greeks of repentance toward God and of faith
in our Lord Jesus Christ.
22 And now, behold, I am going to Jerusalem, constrained by the Spirit, not
knowing what will happen to me there,
23 except that the Holy Spirit testifies to me in every city that imprisonment
and afflictions await me.
24 But I do not account my life of any value nor as precious to myself, if only I
may finish my course and the ministry that I received from the Lord Jesus, to
testify to the gospel of the grace of God.
25 And now, behold, I know that none of you among whom I have gone about
proclaiming the kingdom will see my face again.
26 Therefore I testify to you this day that I am innocent of the blood of all,
27 for I did not shrink from declaring to you the whole counsel of God.
28 Pay careful attention to yourselves and to all the flock, in which the Holy
Spirit has made you overseers, to care for the church of God,which he
obtained with his own blood.
29 I know that after my departure fierce wolves will come in among you, not
sparing the flock;
30 and from among your own selves will arise men speaking twisted things, to
draw away the disciples after them.
31 Therefore be alert, remembering that for three years I did not cease night or
day to admonish every one with tears.
32 And now I commend you to God and to the word of his grace, which is able
to build you up and to give you the inheritance among all those who are
sanctified.
33 I coveted no one's silver or gold or apparel.
34 You yourselves know that these hands ministered to my necessities and to
those who were with me.
35 In all things I have shown you that by working hard in this way we must
help the weak and remember the words of the Lord Jesus, how he himself
said, ‘It is more blessed to give than to receive.’”

1 : 1 起初， 神創造天地。
1 : 2 地是空虛混沌，深淵上面一片黑暗； 神的靈 運行在水面上。
1 : 3 神說：「要有光」，就有了光。
1 : 4 神看光是好的，於是 神就把光和暗分開。
1 : 5 神稱光為「晝」，稱暗為「夜」。有晚上，有早晨，這是第一日。
1 : 6 神說：「眾水之間要有穹蒼，把水和水分開。」
1 : 7 神就造了穹蒼，把穹蒼以下的水和穹蒼以上的水分開。事就這樣成了。
1 : 8 神稱穹蒼為「天」。有晚上，有早晨，這是第二日。
1 : 9 神說：「天下面的水要聚集在一處，使乾地露出來。」事就這樣成了。
1 : 10 神稱乾地為「地」，稱聚集在一起的水為「海」。 神看為好的。
1 : 11 神說：「地要長出植物，就是含種子的五穀菜蔬，和會結果子、果子裏有種子的樹，在地上各從其類。」事就這樣成了。
1 : 12 於是地長出了植物：含種子的五穀菜蔬，各從其類；會結果子、果子裏有種子的樹，各從其類。 神看為好的。
1 : 13 有晚上，有早晨，這是第三日。
1 : 14 神說：「天上要有光體來分晝夜，讓它們作記號，定季節、日子、年份，
1 : 15 它們要在天空發光，照在地上。」事就這樣成了。
1 : 16 於是 神造了兩個大光體，大的管晝，小的管夜，又造了星辰。
1 : 17 神把這些光體擺列在天空，照在地上，
1 : 18 管理晝夜，分別光暗。 神看為好的。
1 : 19 有晚上，有早晨，這是第四日。
1 : 20 神說：「水要滋生眾多有生命之物；要有鳥飛在地面以上，天空之中。」
1 : 21 神就創造了大魚和在水裏滋生的各樣活動的生物，各從其類，以及各樣有翅膀的鳥，各從其類。 神看為好的。
1 : 22 神就賜福給這一切，說：「要繁殖增多，充滿在海的水裏；飛鳥也要在地上增多。」
1 : 23 有晚上，有早晨，這是第五日。
1 : 24 神說：「地要生出有生命之物，各從其類，就是牲畜、爬行動物、地上的走獸，各從其類。」事就這樣成了。
1 : 25 於是 神造了地上的走獸，各從其類；牲畜，各從其類；和地上一切的爬行動物，各從其類。 神看為好的。
1 : 26 神說：「我們要照着我們的形像，按着我們的樣式造人，使他們管理海裏的魚、天空的鳥、地上的牲畜和全地，以及地上爬的一切爬行動物。」
1 : 27 神就照着他的形像創造人，照着 神的形像創造他們；他創造了他們，有男有女。
1 : 28 神賜福給他們， 神對他們說：「要生養眾多，遍滿這地，治理它；要管理海裏的魚、天空的鳥和地上各樣活動的生物。」
1 : 29 神說：「看哪，我把全地一切含種子的五穀菜蔬和一切會結果子、果子裏有種子的樹，都賜給你們；這些都可作食物。
1 : 30 至於地上一切的走獸、天空一切的飛鳥，並一切在地上爬行的，有生命的動物，我把綠色植物賜給牠們作食物。」事就這樣成了。
1 : 31 神看一切所造的，看哪，都非常好。有晚上，有早晨，這是第六日。
