陷信我小子之一者、寧以巨磨懸其頸、沉於深海、

“凡使这信我的一个小子跌倒的，倒不如把大磨石拴在这人的颈项上，沉在深海里。

“凡使这些信我的小子中的一个跌倒的，倒不如把大磨石拴在这人的颈项上，沉在深海里。

“凡使这些信我的小子中的一个跌倒的，倒不如把大磨石拴在这人的颈项上，沉在深海里。

但不论谁使这样一个小信徒失足犯罪，他的下场比把大磨石拴在他脖子上沉到深海里还要惨。

但无论谁使一个信我的小弟兄犯罪，倒不如拿一块大磨石拴在他的颈项上，把他沉在深海里。

“但无论谁使信我的这些卑微人中的一个绊倒，对那人来说，倒不如脖子上被拴上大磨石，沉到深海里。

「凡使這信我的一個小子跌倒的，倒不如把大磨石拴在這人的頸項上，沉在深海裏。

「凡使這些信我的小子中的一個跌倒的，倒不如把大磨石拴在這人的頸項上，沉在深海裏。

但不論誰使這樣一個小信徒失足犯罪，他的下場比把大磨石拴在他脖子上沉到深海裡還要慘。

但無論誰使一個信我的小弟兄犯罪，倒不如拿一塊大磨石拴在他的頸項上，把他沉在深海裡。

凡使這些信我的微小者之一個絆跌的，就使一塊驢牽的磨石掛在他的脖子上，沉在海洋裏，對於他還有益。

「但無論誰使信我的這些卑微人中的一個絆倒，對那人來說，倒不如脖子上被拴上大磨石，沉到深海裡。

若陷信我之小子於罪者、寧以巨磨懸其頸、沉於深海、○

凡使此信我之一小子、陷於罪者、寧以磨石懸其頸、沈於深海、

苟使信我之一介小子墮入罪中、不如磨石繫頸、沉諸淵海之為愈也。

“ If anyone causes one of these little ones— those who believe in me— to stumble, it would be better for them to have a large millstone hung around their neck and to be drowned in the depths of the sea.

“ What if someone causes one of these little ones who believe in me to sin? If they do, it would be better for them to have a large millstone hung around their neck and be drowned at the bottom of the sea.

but whoever causes one of these little ones who believe in me to sin, it would be better for him to have a great millstone fastened around his neck and to be drowned in the depth of the sea.

But if you cause one of these little ones who trusts in me to fall into sin, it would be better for you to have a large millstone tied around your neck and be drowned in the depths of the sea.

“ But whoever causes one of these little ones who believe in me to fall away— it would be better for him if a heavy millstone were hung around his neck and he were drowned in the depths of the sea.

but whoever causes one of these little ones who believe in Me to sin, it is better for him that a heavy millstone be hung around his neck, and that he be drowned in the depths of the sea.

“ But whoever causes one of these little ones who believe in Me to sin, it would be better for him if a millstone were hung around his neck, and he were drowned in the depth of the sea.

but whoso shall cause one of these little ones that believe on me to stumble, it is profitable for him that a great millstone should be hanged about his neck, and that he should be sunk in the depth of the sea.

“ But whoever causes the downfall of one of these little ones who believe in Me— it would be better for him if a heavy millstone were hung around his neck and he were drowned in the depths of the sea!

陷信我小子之一者、寧以巨磨懸其頸、投於海、

耶穌謂其徒曰、陷人於罪、事不能無、而陷之者禍矣、與其陷此小子之一於罪、寧以巨磨繫頸投於海、

故勿復相擬議、寧定志不設絆檻於兄弟前、我宗主耶穌確知深信、凡物原無不潔、惟以之為不潔者、則於彼為不潔矣、若使兄弟因食而憂、則所行不由於愛也、基督既為之死、爾毋以所食敗之、

蓋以苦報夫苦爾者、以偕我之安報爾受苦者、乃上帝之義也、迨主耶穌偕其有能之天使、於火燄中自天顯見、報其不識上帝、不順我主耶穌福音者、

如是、亡此小子之一、非爾天父意也、○

慎勿輕視此小子之一、

惟宜慎之、恐爾之自由、為弱者之躓礙也、或見爾有知識者、席坐偶像之廟、彼良心尚弱、豈不果於食祭像之物乎、懦弱之兄弟、基督為之死、乃因爾知識而淪亡、如是爾獲罪兄弟、傷其懦弱之良心、乃獲罪基督矣、故食物若礙我兄弟、我永不食肉、免其礙之也、

曰、我受膏者、勿犯之、我之先知、勿傷之、

勿使人躓礙、或猶太人、或希利尼人、或上帝會、如我凡事悅眾、不求益己、乃求益眾、使之得救也、

我儕之健者、宜肩不健者之弱、非悅己也、各宜悅鄰、以致其益、而建立之、蓋基督亦非悅己、如經云、詈爾之詈及於我、

萬軍之耶和華曰、鋒刃歟、其起擊我牧者、與我同儔、其擊牧者、散厥羣羊、惟彼小子、我將反手加之、

不食肉、不飲酒、凡事不使兄弟躓者、則善也、

萬軍之耶和華有言、為彰其榮、遣我至虜爾之邦、犯爾者、即犯其眸子也、

曰、主、爾為誰、曰、我乃爾所窘迫之耶穌也、
