你们也许心里会问，‘我们如何知道是否是耶和华说的话呢？’

你心里若说：‘耶和华所未曾吩咐的话，我们怎能知道呢？’

你心里若说：‘我们怎能知道那话是耶和华未曾吩咐的呢？’

你心里若说：‘我们怎能知道那话是耶和华未曾吩咐的呢？’

如果你心里说：‘耶和华没有说过的话，我们怎能知道呢？’

你心裏若說：『耶和華所未曾吩咐的話，我們怎能知道呢？』

你心裏若說：『我們怎能知道那話是耶和華未曾吩咐的呢？』

你心裏若說：『我們怎能知道那話是耶和華未曾吩咐的呢？』

你們也許心裡會問，『我們如何知道是否是耶和華說的話呢？』

如果你心裡說：‘耶和華沒有說過的話，我們怎能知道呢？’

但你若心裏說：「我們怎能知道甚麼是永恆主所沒有說過的話呢？」

如爾意謂、耶和華所未諭之言、何以知之、

如爾意謂耶和華所未嘗諭者、曷能知之。

如爾意謂、先知所傳非主所諭者、我何以知之、或作如爾意謂先知所傳之言我儕何以知之為主所諭否

You may say to yourselves,“ How can we know when a message has not been spoken by the Lord?”

You will say to yourselves,“ How can we know when a message hasn’t been spoken by the Lord?”

And if you say in your heart,‘ How may we know the word that the Lord has not spoken?’—

“ But you may wonder,‘ How will we know whether or not a prophecy is from the Lord?’

You may say to yourself,‘ How can we recognize a message the LORD has not spoken?’

And if you say in your heart,‘ How will we recognize the word which the Lord has not spoken?’

And if you say in your heart,‘ How shall we know the word which the Lord has not spoken?’—

And if thou say in thy heart, How shall we know the word which Jehovah hath not spoken?

You may say to yourself,‘ How can we recognize a message the Lord has not spoken?’

And if thou say in thine heart, How shall we know the word which the LORD hath not spoken?

Now if you say to yourselves,‘ How can we tell that a message is not from the LORD?’–

You may say in your heart,“ How shall we know the word which Yahweh has not spoken?”

亲爱的弟兄姊妹，不要什么灵都信，总要试验那些灵是否出于上帝，因为世上已经出现了许多假先知！任何灵若承认耶稣基督曾降世为人，就是从上帝来的，你们可以凭这一点认出上帝的灵。任何灵若不承认耶稣，就不是从上帝来的，而是敌基督者的灵。以前你们听说敌基督者要来，现在他已经在世上了。

‘我知道你的行为、劳碌和坚忍，也知道你疾恶如仇，曾查验出那些假冒的使徒，揭穿他们的虚假。

呼召你们的主是信实可靠的，祂必为你们成就这事。
