19 “There was a rich man who was dressed in purple and fine linen and lived in luxury every day.
20 At his gate was laid a beggar named Lazarus, covered with sores
21 and longing to eat what fell from the rich man’s table. Even the dogs came and licked his sores.
22 “The time came when the beggar died and the angels carried him to Abraham’s side. The rich man also died and was buried.
23 In Hades, where he was in torment, he looked up and saw Abraham far away, with Lazarus by his side.
24 So he called to him, ‘Father Abraham, have pity on me and send Lazarus to dip the tip of his finger in water and cool my tongue, because I am in agony in this fire.’
25 “But Abraham replied, ‘Son, remember that in your lifetime you received your good things, while Lazarus received bad things, but now he is comforted here and you are in agony.
26 And besides all this, between us and you a great chasm has been set in place, so that those who want to go from here to you cannot, nor can anyone cross over from there to us.’
27 “He answered, ‘Then I beg you, father, send Lazarus to my family,
28 for I have five brothers. Let him warn them, so that they will not also come to this place of torment.’
29 “Abraham replied, ‘They have Moses and the Prophets; let them listen to them.’
30 “‘No, father Abraham,’ he said, ‘but if someone from the dead goes to them, they will repent.’
31 “He said to him, ‘If they do not listen to Moses and the Prophets, they will not be convinced even if someone rises from the dead.’”

創世記 第 1 章



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。
