圣母玫瑰园-思高圣经 

【罗马人书】第十一章  << 上一章 下一章 >>

11:1 我再问:莫非天主摈弃了自己的人民吗﹖断然不是!我自己就是个以色列人,出于亚巴郎的后裔,本雅明支派。
I ask, then, has God rejected his people? Of course not! For I too am an Israelite, a descendant of Abraham, of the tribe of Benjamin.
11:2 天主并没有摈弃他所预选的人民。难道你们不知道圣经在厄里亚篇上说了什么,他怎样向天主抱怨以色列﹖
God has not rejected his people whom he foreknew. Do you not know what the scripture says about Elijah, how he pleads with God against Israel?
11:3 『上主呀!他们杀了你的先知,毁坏了你的祭坛,只剩下了我一个,他们还在谋害我的性命。』
"Lord, they have killed your prophets, they have torn down your altars, and I alone am left, and they are seeking my life."
11:4 然而神谕告诉了他什么﹖『我为我自己留下了七千人,他们没有向巴耳屈过膝。』
But what is God’s response to him? "I have left for myself seven thousand men who have not knelt to Baal."
11:5 同样,现在也留下了一些残余,即天主以恩宠所选拔的人。
So also at the present time there is a remnant, chosen by grace.
11:6 既是出于恩宠,就不是出于作为,不然,恩宠就不算为恩宠了。
But if by grace, it is no longer because of works; otherwise grace would no longer be grace.
11:7 那么还说什么呢﹖以色列全体所寻求的,没有得到,只有那些蒙选的人得到了;其余的都顽梗不化了。
What then? What Israel was seeking it did not attain, but the elect attained it; the rest were hardened,
11:8 正如所记载的:『天主赋予了他们沉睡的神,有眼看不见,有耳听不见,直到今日,仍是如此。』
as it is written: "God gave them a spirit of deep sleep, eyes that should not see and ears that should not hear, down to this very day."
11:9 达味也说过:『愿他们的筵席成为他们的陷阱、罗网、绊脚石和应得的报应。
And David says: "Let their table become a snare and a trap, a stumbling block and a retribution for them;
11:10 愿他们的眼睛昏迷,不得看见。愿你使他们的脊背常常弯曲。』
let their eyes grow dim so that they may not see, and keep their backs bent forever."
11:11 那么我再问:他们失足,是要他们永久跌倒吗﹖绝对不是!而是借着他们的过犯,使救恩临到外邦人,为刺激他们发愤。
Hence I ask, did they stumble so as to fall? Of course not! But through their transgression salvation has come to the Gentiles, so as to make them jealous.
11:12 如果因他们的过犯,世界得以致富,因他们的堕落,外邦人得以致富;他们全体归正,更将怎样呢﹖
Now if their transgression is enrichment for the world, and if their diminished number is enrichment for the Gentiles, how much more their full number.
11:13 我对你们外邦人说:我既然是外邦人的宗徒,我必要光荣我的职务;
Now I am speaking to you Gentiles. Inasmuch then as I am the apostle to the Gentiles, I glory in my ministry
11:14 这样,或许可激动我的同胞发愤,因而能拯救他们几个人。
in order to make my race jealous and thus save some of them.
11:15 如果因他们被遗弃,世界与天主和好了;那么,他们如果蒙收纳,岂不是死而复生吗﹖
For if their rejection is the reconciliation of the world, what will their acceptance be but life from the dead?
11:16 如果所献的初熟的麦面是圣的,全面团也成为圣的;如果树根是圣的,树枝也是圣的。
If the firstfruits are holy, so is the whole batch of dough; and if the root is holy, so are the branches.
11:17 假如有几条橄榄树枝被折下来,而你这枝野橄榄树枝被接上去,同沾橄榄树根的肥脂,
But if some of the branches were broken off, and you, a wild olive shoot, were grafted in their place and have come to share in the rich root of the olive tree,
11:18 就不可向旧树枝自夸。如果你想自夸,就该想不是你托着树根,而是树根托着你。
do not boast against the branches. If you do boast, consider that you do not support the root; the root supports you.
11:19 或者你要说:树枝被折下来,正是为叫我接上去。
Indeed you will say, "Branches were broken off so that I might be grafted in."
11:20 不错,他们因了不信而被折下来,你要因着信,才站得住。你决不可心高气傲,反应恐惧,
That is so. They were broken off because of unbelief, but you are there because of faith. So do not become haughty, but stand in awe.
11:21 因为天主既然没有怜惜了那些原有的树枝,将来也许不怜惜你。
For if God did not spare the natural branches, (perhaps) he will not spare you either.
11:22 可见天主又慈善又严厉:天主对于跌倒了的人是严厉的,对于你却是慈善的,只要你存留在他的慈善上;不然你也必要被砍去。
See, then, the kindness and severity of God: severity toward those who fell, but God’s kindness to you, provided you remain in his kindness; otherwise you too will be cut off.
11:23 至于他们,如果他们不固执于无信之中,必会再被接上去,因为天主有能力重新把他们接上去。
And they also, if they do not remain in unbelief, will be grafted in, for God is able to graft them in again.
11:24 其实,如果你这由本生的野橄榄树上被砍下来的,逆着性被接在好橄榄树上,何况他们那些原生的树枝,岂不更容易接在自己原来的橄榄树上么﹖
For if you were cut from what is by nature a wild olive tree, and grafted, contrary to nature, into a cultivated one, how much more will they who belong to it by nature be grafted back into their own olive tree.
11:25 弟兄们!免得你们自作聪明,我不愿意你们不知道这项奥秘的事,就是只有一部分是执迷不悟的,直到外邦人全数进入天国为止:
I do not want you to be unaware of this mystery, brothers, so that you will not become wise (in) your own estimation: a hardening has come upon Israel in part, until the full number of the Gentiles comes in,
11:26 那时,全以色列必也获救,正如经上所载:『拯救者必要来自熙雍,从雅各伯中消除不敬之罪;
and thus all Israel will be saved, as it is written: "The deliverer will come out of Zion, he will turn away godlessness from Jacob;
11:27 这是我与他们所订立的盟约:那时我要赦免他们的罪恶。』
and this is my covenant with them when I take away their sins."
11:28 照福音来说,他们由于你们的缘故,成了天主的仇人;但照召选来说,由于他们祖先的缘故,他们仍是可爱的,
In respect to the gospel, they are enemies on your account; but in respect to election, they are beloved because of the patriarchs.
11:29 因为天主的恩赐和召选是决不会撤回的。
For the gifts and the call of God are irrevocable.
11:30 就如你们以前背叛了天主,如今却因了他们的背叛而蒙受了怜悯;
Just as you once disobeyed God but have now received mercy because of their disobedience,
11:31 同样,因了你们所受的怜悯,他们如今背叛,这是为叫他们今后也蒙受怜悯,
so they have now disobeyed in order that, by virtue of the mercy shown to you, they too may (now) receive mercy.
11:32 因为天主把众人都禁锢在背叛之中,是为要怜悯众人。
For God delivered all to disobedience, that he might have mercy upon all.
11:33 啊!,天主的富饶,上智和知识,是多么高深!他的决断是多么不可测量!他的道路是多么不可探察!
Oh, the depth of the riches and wisdom and knowledge of God! How inscrutable are his judgments and how unsearchable his ways!
11:34 有谁曾知道上主的心意﹖或者,有谁曾当过他的顾问﹖
"For who has known the mind of the Lord or who has been his counselor?"
11:35 或者,有谁曾先施恩于他,而望他还报呢﹖
"Or who has given him anything that he may be repaid?"
11:36 因为万物都出于他,依赖他,而归于他。愿光荣归于他至于永世!阿们!。
For from him and through him and for him are all things. To him be glory forever. Amen.
