1 耶稣对他们讲一个比喻， 论到人必须常常祈祷， 不可灰心。
2 他说： "某城里有一个法官， 不惧怕 神， 也不尊敬人。
3 那城里有一个寡妇， 常常来到他那里， 说： ‘求你给我伸冤， 使我脱离我的对头！ ’
4 他多次不肯， 后来心里说： ‘我虽然不惧怕 神， 也不尊敬人，
5 只是因为这寡妇常常来麻烦我， 就给她伸冤吧， 免得她不断地来缠扰我。’"
6 主说： "你们听听这不义的法官所说的话吧。
7 难道 神不会为昼夜呼吁他的选民伸冤吗？难道 神会耽误他们吗？
8 我告诉你们， 他要快快地给他们伸冤。然而人子来的时候， 在世上找得到这种信心吗？"
9 耶稣向那些自恃为义、轻视别人的人， 讲了这个比喻：
10 "有两个人上圣殿去祈祷， 一个是法利赛人， 一个是税吏。
11 法利赛人站着， 祷告给自己听， 这样说： ‘ 神啊， 我感谢你， 我不像别人， 勒索、不义、奸淫， 也不像这个税吏。
12 我一个礼拜禁食两次， 我的一切收入都奉献十分之一。’
13 税吏却远远站着， 连举目望天也不敢， 只捶着胸说： ‘ 神啊， 可怜我这个罪人！ ’
14 我告诉你们， 这个人回去， 比那个倒算为义了。因为高抬自己的， 必要降卑； 自己谦卑的， 必要升高。"
15 有人抱着婴孩到耶稣面前， 要他抚摩他们。门徒看见了， 就责备那些人。
16 耶稣却叫他们过来， 说： "让小孩子到我这里来， 不要禁止他们， 因为 神的国正属于这样的人。
17 我实在告诉你们， 凡不像小孩子一样接受 神的国的， 决不能进去。"
18 有一个官长问耶稣： "良善的老师， 我当作什么， 才可以承受永生？"
19 耶稣对他说： "你为什么称我是良善的呢？除了 神一位以外， 没有良善的。
20 诫命你是知道的： 不可奸淫， 不可杀人， 不可偷盗， 不可作假证供， 当孝敬父母。"
21 他说： "这一切我从小都遵守了。"
22 耶稣听了， 就告诉他： "你还缺少一件， 应当变卖你一切所有的， 分给穷人， 你就必定有财宝在天上， 而且你还要来跟从我。"
23 他听见这话， 非常忧愁， 因为他十分富有。
24 耶稣见他这样， 就说： "富有的人要进 神的国， 是多么难哪！
25 骆驼穿过针眼， 比有钱的人进 神的国还容易呢。"
26 听见的人说： "这样， 谁可以得救呢？"
27 耶稣说： "人所不能的， 在 神却是可能的。"
28 彼得说： "你看， 我们已舍弃自己所有的， 跟从你了！ "
29 耶稣说： "我实在告诉你们， 人为 神的国撇下房屋、妻子、弟兄、父母或儿女，
30 没有不在今世得许多倍， 来世得永生的。"
31 耶稣把十二门徒带到一边， 对他们说： "我们现在上耶路撒冷去， 先知所写的一切， 都要成就在人子身上。
32 他要被交给外族人， 受戏弄， 被凌辱， 他们要向他吐唾沫，
33 鞭打他， 杀害他； 第三日他要复活。"
34 这些话的含义对门徒是隐藏的。他们听了， 一点也不明白， 不知道他说的是什么。
35 耶稣走近耶利哥的时候， 有一个瞎眼的人坐在路旁讨饭，
36 他听见人群经过， 就问是什么事。
37 别人告诉他， 是拿撒勒人耶稣经过。
38 他就喊叫说： "大卫的子孙耶稣啊， 可怜我吧！ "
39 在前头走的人责备他， 叫他不要出声； 但他越发喊叫： "大卫的子孙， 可怜我吧！ "
40 耶稣站住， 吩咐领他过来。等他走近， 就问他：
41 "你要我为你作什么？"他说： "主啊， 叫我能看见！ "
42 耶稣说： "你就看见吧！ 你的信使你痊愈了。"
43 他立刻看见了， 就跟随耶稣， 颂赞 神。众人看见这事， 也赞美 神。
1 And he spake a parable unto them to the end that they ought always to pray, and not to faint; 2 saying, There was in a city a judge, who feared not God, and regarded not man: 3 and there was a widow in that city; and she came oft unto him, saying, Avenge me of mine adversary. 4 And he would not for a while: but afterward he said within himself, Though I fear not God, nor regard man; 5 yet because this widow troubleth me, I will avenge her, lest she wear me out by her continual coming. 6 And the Lord said, Hear what the unrighteous judge saith. 7 And shall not God avenge his elect, that cry to him day and night, and yet he is longsuffering over them? 8 I say unto you, that he will avenge them speedily. Nevertheless, when the Son of man cometh, shall he find faith on the earth?
9 And he spake also this parable unto certain who trusted in themselves that they were righteous, and set all others at nought: 10 Two men went up into the temple to pray; the one a Pharisee, and the other a publican. 11 The Pharisee stood and prayed thus with himself, God, I thank thee, that I am not as the rest of men, extortioners, unjust, adulterers, or even as this publican. 12 I fast twice in the week; I give tithes of all that I get. 13 But the publican, standing afar off, would not lift up so much as his eyes unto heaven, but smote his breast, saying, God, be thou merciful to me a sinner. 14 I say unto you, This man went down to his house justified rather than the other: for every one that exalteth himself shall be humbled; but he that humbleth himself shall be exalted.
15 And they were bringing unto him also their babes, that he should touch them: but when the disciples saw it, they rebuked them. 16 But Jesus called them unto him, saying, Suffer the little children to come unto me, and forbid them not: for to such belongeth the kingdom of God. 17 Verily I say unto you, Whosoever shall not receive the kingdom of God as a little child, he shall in no wise enter therein.
18 And a certain ruler asked him, saying, Good Teacher, what shall I do to inherit eternal life? 19 And Jesus said unto him, Why callest thou me good? none is good, save one, even God. 20 Thou knowest the commandments, Do not commit adultery, Do not kill, Do not steal, Do not bear false witness, Honor thy father and mother. 21 And he said, All these things have I observed from my youth up. 22 And when Jesus heard it, he said unto him, One thing thou lackest yet: sell all that thou hast, and distribute unto the poor, and thou shalt have treasure in heaven: and come, follow me. 23 But when he heard these things, he became exceeding sorrowful; for he was very rich. 24 And Jesus seeing him said, How hardly shall they that have riches enter into the kingdom of God! 25 For it is easier for a camel to enter in through a needle’s eye, than for a rich man to enter into the kingdom of God. 26 And they that heard it said, Then who can be saved? 27 But he said, The things which are impossible with men are possible with God. 28 And Peter said, Lo, we have left our own, and followed thee. 29 And he said unto them, Verily I say unto you, There is no man that hath left house, or wife, or brethren, or parents, or children, for the kingdom of God’s sake, 30 who shall not receive manifold more in this time, and in the world to come eternal life.
31 And he took unto him the twelve, and said unto them, Behold, we go up to Jerusalem, and all the things that are written through the prophets shall be accomplished unto the Son of man. 32 For he shall be delivered up unto the Gentiles, and shall be mocked, and shamefully treated, and spit upon: 33 and they shall scourge and kill him: and the third day he shall rise again. 34 And they understood none of these things; and this saying was hid from them, and they perceived not the things that were said.
35 And it came to pass, as he drew nigh unto Jericho, a certain blind man sat by the way side begging: 36 and hearing a multitude going by, he inquired what this meant. 37 And they told him, that Jesus of Nazareth passeth by. 38 And he cried, saying, Jesus, thou son of David, have mercy on me. 39 And they that went before rebuked him, that he should hold his peace: but he cried out the more a great deal, Thou son of David, have mercy on me. 40 And Jesus stood, and commanded him to be brought unto him: and when he was come near, he asked him, 41 What wilt thou that I should do unto thee? And he said, Lord, that I may receive my sight. 42 And Jesus said unto him, Receive thy sight: thy faith hath made thee whole. 43 And immediately he received his sight, and followed him, glorifying God: and all the people, when they saw it, gave praise unto God.
