罗马书 4:1 · Romans 4:1
如此说来,我们的祖宗亚伯拉罕凭着肉体得了甚麽呢?
What shall we say then that Abraham our father, as pertaining to the flesh, hath found?
Romans 4 · King James Version
英王钦定本圣经 · 简体 · 上帝版 · 共 25 节
如此说来,我们的祖宗亚伯拉罕凭着肉体得了甚麽呢?
What shall we say then that Abraham our father, as pertaining to the flesh, hath found?
倘若亚伯拉罕是因行为称义,就有可夸的;只是在 上帝面前并无可夸。
For if Abraham were justified by works, he hath [whereof] to glory; but not before God.
圣经上说甚麽呢?说:「亚伯拉罕信 上帝,这就算为他的义。」
For what saith the scripture? Abraham believed God, and it was counted unto him for righteousness.
作工的得工价,不算恩典,乃是该得的;
Now to him that worketh is the reward not reckoned of grace, but of debt.
唯有不作工的,只信称不敬虔之人为义的 上帝,他的信就算为义。
But to him that worketh not, but believeth on him that justifieth the ungodly, his faith is counted for righteousness.
正如大卫称那在行为以外蒙 上帝算为义的人是有福的。
Even as David also describeth the blessedness of the man, unto whom God imputeth righteousness without works,
他说:「得饶恕其过丶遮盖其罪的,这人是有福的。
[Saying], Blessed [are] they whose iniquities are forgiven, and whose sins are covered.
主不算为有罪的,这人是有福的。」
Blessed [is] the man to whom the Lord will not impute sin.
如此看来,这福是单加给那受割礼的人吗?不也是加给那未受割礼的人吗?因我们所说,亚伯拉罕的信,就算为他的义,
[Cometh] this blessedness then upon the circumcision [only], or upon the uncircumcision also? for we say that faith was reckoned to Abraham for righteousness.
是怎麽算的呢?是在他受割礼的时候呢?是在他未受割礼的时候呢?不是在受割礼的时候,乃是在未受割礼的时候。
How was it then reckoned? when he was in circumcision, or in uncircumcision? Not in circumcision, but in uncircumcision.
并且他受了割礼的记号,作他未受割礼的时候因信称义的印证,叫他作一切未受割礼而信之人的父,使他们也算为义;
And he received the sign of circumcision, a seal of the righteousness of the faith which [he had yet] being uncircumcised: that he might be the father of all them that believe, though they be not circumcised; that righteousness might be imputed unto them also:
又作受割礼之人的父,就是那些不但受割礼,并且按我们的祖宗亚伯拉罕未受割礼而信之踪迹去行的人。
And the father of circumcision to them who are not of the circumcision only, but who also walk in the steps of that faith of our father Abraham, which [he had] being [yet] uncircumcised.
因为 上帝应许亚伯拉罕和他後裔,必作得承受世界的,不是因律法,乃是因信而得的义。
For the promise, that he should be the heir of the world, [was] not to Abraham, or to his seed, through the law, but through the righteousness of faith.
若是属乎律法的人才得为後嗣,信就归於虚空,应许也就废弃了。
For if they which are of the law [be] heirs, faith is made void, and the promise made of none effect:
因为律法是惹动忿怒的;哪里没有律法,那里就没有过犯。
Because the law worketh wrath: for where no law is, [there is] no transgression.
所以人得为後嗣是本乎信,因此就属乎恩,叫应许定然归给一切後裔;不但归给那属乎律法的,也归给那效法亚伯拉罕之信的。
Therefore [it is] of faith, that [it might be] by grace; to the end the promise might be sure to all the seed; not to that only which is of the law, but to that also which is of the faith of Abraham; who is the father of us all,
亚伯拉罕所信的,是那叫死人复活丶使无变为有的 上帝,他在主面前作我们世人的父。(如经上所记:「我已经立你作多国的父。」)
(As it is written, I have made thee a father of many nations,) before him whom he believed, [even] God, who quickeneth the dead, and calleth those things which be not as though they were.
他在无可盼望的时候,因信仍有盼望,就得以作多国的父,正如先前所说:「你的後裔将要如此。」
Who against hope believed in hope, that he might become the father of many nations, according to that which was spoken, So shall thy seed be.
他将近百岁的时候,他的信心既不软弱,就不顾自己的身体如同已死,撒拉的生育已经断绝;
And being not weak in faith, he considered not his own body now dead, when he was about an hundred years old, neither yet the deadness of Sara's womb:
他总没有因着不信,疑惑 上帝所应许的;反倒信心坚强,将荣耀归给 上帝;
He staggered not at the promise of God through unbelief; but was strong in faith, giving glory to God;
且满心相信 上帝所应许的必能作成。
And being fully persuaded that, what he had promised, he was able also to perform.
所以,这就算为他的义。
And therefore it was imputed to him for righteousness.
「算为他义」的这句话不是单为他写的,
Now it was not written for his sake alone, that it was imputed to him;
也是为我们若信 上帝使我们的 主耶稣从死里复活而得算为义之人写的。
But for us also, to whom it shall be imputed, if we believe on him that raised up Jesus our Lord from the dead;
耶稣被交给人,是为我们的过犯;复活,是为叫我们称义。
Who was delivered for our offences, and was raised again for our justification.
