[BR]我们都仆倒在地,我就听见有声音,用希伯来话,向我说,扫罗,扫罗,为什么逼迫我。你用脚踢刺是难的。
[BR]And when we were all fallen to the earth, I heard a voice speaking unto me, and saying in the Hebrew tongue, Saul, Saul, why persecutest thou me? it is hard for thee to kick against the pricks.
你起来站着,我特意向你显现,要派你作执事作见证,将你所看见的事,和我将要指示你的事,证明出来。But rise, and stand upon thy feet: for I have appeared unto thee for this purpose, to make thee a minister and a witness both of these things which thou hast seen, and of those things in the which I will appear unto thee;
[BR]我差你到他们那里去,要叫他们的眼睛得开,从黑暗中归向光明,从撒但权下归向神。又因信我,得蒙赦罪,和一切成圣的人同得基业。
[BR]To open their eyes, and to turn them from darkness to light, and from the power of Satan unto God, that they may receive forgiveness of sins, and inheritance among them which are sanctified by faith that is in me.
[BR]先在大马士革,后在耶路撒冷,和犹太全地,以及外邦,劝勉他们应当悔改归向神,行事与悔改的心相称。
[BR]But shewed first unto them of Damascus, and at Jerusalem, and throughout all the coasts of Judaea, and then to the Gentiles, that they should repent and turn to God, and do works meet for repentance.
[BR]然而我蒙神的帮助,直到今日还站得住,对着尊贵卑贱老幼作见证。所讲的,并不外乎众先知和摩西所说,将来必成的事。
[BR]Having therefore obtained help of God, I continue unto this day, witnessing both to small and great, saying none other things than those which the prophets and Moses did say should come:
[BR]就是基督必须受害,并且因从死里复活,要首先把光明的道,传给百姓和外邦人。
[BR]That Christ should suffer, and that he should be the first that should rise from the dead, and should shew light unto the people, and to the Gentiles.
