18 For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who suppress the truth in unrighteousness,

19 because what may be known of God is manifest in them, for God has shown it to them.

20 For since the creation of the world His invisible attributes are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even His eternal power and Godhead, so that they are without excuse,

21 because, although they knew God, they did not glorify Him as God, nor were thankful, but became futile in their thoughts, and their foolish hearts were darkened.

22 Professing to be wise, they became fools,

23 and changed the glory of the incorruptible God into an image made like corruptible man—and birds and four-footed animals and creeping things.

24 Therefore God also gave them up to uncleanness, in the lusts of their hearts, to dishonor their bodies among themselves,

25 who exchanged the truth of God for the lie, and worshiped and served the creature rather than the Creator, who is blessed forever. Amen.

26 For this reason God gave them up to vile passions. For even their women exchanged the natural use for what is against nature.

27 Likewise also the men, leaving the natural use of the woman, burned in their lust for one another, men with men committing what is shameful, and receiving in themselves the penalty of their error which was due.

28 And even as they did not like to retain God in their knowledge, God gave them over to a debased mind, to do those things which are not fitting;

29 being filled with all unrighteousness, sexual immorality, wickedness, covetousness, maliciousness; full of envy, murder, strife, deceit, evil-mindedness; they are whisperers,

30 backbiters, haters of God, violent, proud, boasters, inventors of evil things, disobedient to parents,

31 undiscerning, untrustworthy, unloving, unforgiving, unmerciful;

32 who, knowing the righteous judgment of God, that those who practice such things are deserving of death, not only do the same but also approve of those who practice them.

創世記 第 1 章



1 : 1   起初, 神創造天地。
1 : 2   地是空虛混沌,深淵上面一片黑暗; 神的靈 運行在水面上。
1 : 3    神說:「要有光」,就有了光。
1 : 4    神看光是好的,於是 神就把光和暗分開。
1 : 5    神稱光為「晝」,稱暗為「夜」。有晚上,有早晨,這是第一日。
1 : 6    神說:「眾水之間要有穹蒼,把水和水分開。」
1 : 7    神就造了穹蒼,把穹蒼以下的水和穹蒼以上的水分開。事就這樣成了。
1 : 8    神稱穹蒼為「天」。有晚上,有早晨,這是第二日。
1 : 9    神說:「天下面的水要聚集在一處,使乾地露出來。」事就這樣成了。
1 : 10    神稱乾地為「地」,稱聚集在一起的水為「海」。 神看為好的。
1 : 11    神說:「地要長出植物,就是含種子的五穀菜蔬,和會結果子、果子裏有種子的樹,在地上各從其類。」事就這樣成了。
1 : 12   於是地長出了植物:含種子的五穀菜蔬,各從其類;會結果子、果子裏有種子的樹,各從其類。 神看為好的。
1 : 13   有晚上,有早晨,這是第三日。
1 : 14    神說:「天上要有光體來分晝夜,讓它們作記號,定季節、日子、年份,
1 : 15   它們要在天空發光,照在地上。」事就這樣成了。
1 : 16   於是 神造了兩個大光體,大的管晝,小的管夜,又造了星辰。
1 : 17    神把這些光體擺列在天空,照在地上,
1 : 18   管理晝夜,分別光暗。 神看為好的。
1 : 19   有晚上,有早晨,這是第四日。
1 : 20    神說:「水要滋生眾多有生命之物;要有鳥飛在地面以上,天空之中。」
1 : 21    神就創造了大魚和在水裏滋生的各樣活動的生物,各從其類,以及各樣有翅膀的鳥,各從其類。 神看為好的。
1 : 22    神就賜福給這一切,說:「要繁殖增多,充滿在海的水裏;飛鳥也要在地上增多。」
1 : 23   有晚上,有早晨,這是第五日。
1 : 24    神說:「地要生出有生命之物,各從其類,就是牲畜、爬行動物、地上的走獸,各從其類。」事就這樣成了。
1 : 25   於是 神造了地上的走獸,各從其類;牲畜,各從其類;和地上一切的爬行動物,各從其類。 神看為好的。
1 : 26    神說:「我們要照着我們的形像,按着我們的樣式造人,使他們管理海裏的魚、天空的鳥、地上的牲畜和全地,以及地上爬的一切爬行動物。」
1 : 27    神就照着他的形像創造人,照着 神的形像創造他們;他創造了他們,有男有女。
1 : 28    神賜福給他們, 神對他們說:「要生養眾多,遍滿這地,治理它;要管理海裏的魚、天空的鳥和地上各樣活動的生物。」
1 : 29    神說:「看哪,我把全地一切含種子的五穀菜蔬和一切會結果子、果子裏有種子的樹,都賜給你們;這些都可作食物。
1 : 30   至於地上一切的走獸、天空一切的飛鳥,並一切在地上爬行的,有生命的動物,我把綠色植物賜給牠們作食物。」事就這樣成了。
1 : 31    神看一切所造的,看哪,都非常好。有晚上,有早晨,這是第六日。
