可是他们不知道怎样下手，因为民众都倾心听他。

但寻不出法子来，因为百姓都侧耳听他。

但找不出方法来，因为百姓都侧耳听他。

但找不出方法来，因为百姓都侧耳听他。

只是无从下手，因为百姓都十分喜爱听祂讲道。

但他们不知道要怎样下手，因为众人都围着他，听他的教训。

但尋不出法子來，因為百姓都側耳聽他。

但找不出方法來，因為百姓都側耳聽他。

但找不出方法來，因為百姓都側耳聽他。

只是無從下手，因為百姓都十分喜愛聽祂講道。

但他們不知道要怎樣下手，因為眾人都圍著他，聽他的教訓。

卻尋不出所可行的；因為眾民都緊纏着耶穌來聽他。

可是他們不知道怎樣下手，因為民眾都傾心聽他。

但未得所為、因民皆傾聽之也、

惟不知所為、因眾傾聽之也、

惟無計可施、因民皆傾聽之也、

Yet they could not find any way to do it, because all the people hung on his words.

But they couldn’t find any way to do it. All the people were paying close attention to his words.

but they did not find anything they could do, for all the people were hanging on his words.

But they could think of nothing, because all the people hung on every word he said.

but they could not find a way to do it, because all the people were captivated by what they heard.

and yet they could not find anything that they might do, for all the people were hanging on to every word He said.

and were unable to do anything; for all the people were very attentive to hear Him.

and they could not find what they might do; for the people all hung upon him, listening.

but they could not find a way to do it, because all the people were captivated by what they heard.

And could not find what they might do: for all the people were very attentive to hear him.

but they could not find a way to do it, for all the people hung on his words.

They couldn’t find what they might do, for all the people hung on to every word that he said.

经文士和祭司长们知道这个比喻是针对他们而说的，当时就想下手捉拿耶稣，可是又怕民众。于是，他们密切注意，派了一些奸细装做好人，要抓耶稣的话柄，好把他交在总督的管理和权柄之下。

有一个敬拜神的妇人，名叫莉迪娅，是锡亚蒂拉城卖紫色布的商人。她一直在听，主开启她的心窍，使她留心保罗所讲的话。

差役们回答：“从来没有人像这个人那样讲话！”法利赛人说：“难道你们也被迷惑了吗？难道首领或法利赛人中有信他的吗？这不懂律法的民众是被诅咒的！”

法利赛人就去商议，怎样找耶稣的话柄来陷害他。他们派了自己的门徒们与希律党的人一同去见耶稣，说：“老师，我们知道你是真诚的，并且按真理教导神的道。你不顾忌任何人，因为你不看人的情面。

祭司长们和经文士们在图谋怎样能杀掉耶稣，因为他们怕民众。那时，撒旦进入了那称为加略人的犹大里面。犹大算是十二使徒中的一个。他去跟祭司长们和守卫长们商量怎样把耶稣交给他们。
