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。

陷信我小子之一者、寧以巨磨懸其頸、沉於深海、

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!

『凡使這些信的人的微小者之一絆跌的，假使一塊驢牽的磨石掛在他的脖子上，丟在海裏，這對於他倒好呢。

耶穌對他的門徒說：『要使絆跌的事不來、是不可能的；由他而來的、那人有禍啊！假使一塊磨石掛在他的脖子上，拋在海裏，這倒比他把這些微小者之一絆跌了還上算呢！

所以我們別再彼此論斷了；寧可決斷不給弟兄放下碰腳石或絆跌物。我知道，並在主耶穌裏深信，凡物自身沒有俗污的；惟獨人若以某物為俗污，那物對那人就俗污了。你若因食物的緣故使你的弟兄憂愁，便不再是依照愛心而行了。基督曾經替他死的人，你可別用你的食物使他失喪了！

因為上帝所看為公義的就是：當主耶穌從天上同他有能力的天使在火燄中顯示出來時將患難報應那加患難給你們的人，而將鬆息還報你們、連同我們、受患難緊逼的人、

同樣的，這些微小者之一個若失掉了，這在你們天上的父面前，也不是他的旨意呀。

『你們要小心，不可輕看這些微小者之一個；我告訴你們，他們的守護天使在天上時常覲見我天上之父的面呢。

不過要謹慎，免得你們這權利、竟成了軟弱人的碰腳物。倘若有人見你這「有知識的」在偶像廟裏坐席，他的良知若是軟弱，豈不是要「被建立起來！」去喫祭偶像之物麼？那軟弱的人、基督為他死的那弟兄、也就會因你的「知識」而失喪了！你們這樣犯罪害了弟兄、擊傷了他們的良知、便是犯罪敵對着基督了。所以食物若叫我的弟兄絆跌，我就永遠絕不喫肉，免得使我的弟兄絆跌。

說：『不可觸害着我所膏立的，不可加害於我的神言人。』

不拘對猶太人、對希利尼人、或對上帝的教會、你們都要不碰倒人才對；正如我一樣：我凡事都讓眾人喜歡，不逕求我自己的益處，只求多人的益處，使他們得救。

我們有能力的人呢、應該擔代沒有能力之人的脆弱顧忌，不應該逕求自己所喜歡的。我們各人都要求鄰舍所喜歡的、使他得益處、以得建立。因為基督也不求自己所喜歡的；倒像經上所記：『那些辱罵你之人的辱罵、都落在我身上了！』

萬軍之永恆主發神諭說：『刀劍哪，奮發，以攻擊我的牧民者哦！攻擊那做我同伴的人！我必擊打牧人、叫羣羊四散！微小者、我也必將手轉過去打他們。

不喫肉，不喝酒，不在任何事上叫你的弟兄碰倒、才是好的。

因為萬軍之永恆主在榮現之後差遣了我來宣告關於那些擄掠你們、的列國之事、是這麼說的：凡觸害着你們的就是觸害着永恆主眼中的瞳人。

他說：『先生，你是誰？』主說：『我就是你所逼迫的耶穌；
