Höfnun Gyðinga og ætlun Guðs

Og árin liðu og þessi sonur, Ísak, óx og þegar hann var orðinn fullorðinn, giftist hann konu sem hét Rebekka. Þegar Rebekka eignaðist tvíbura, sagði Guð henni að Esaú, barnið sem fæddist fyrst, myndi verða þjónn Jakobs, tvíburabróður síns. Gamla testamentið lýsir þessu svo: „Jakob mun ég blessa en ekki Esaú.“ Þetta sagði Guð áður en drengirnir fæddust, áður en þeir höfðu tækifæri til að gera gott eða illt. Af þessu má sjá að Guð var að framkvæma fyrirætlun sína, sem hann hafði ákveðið löngu áður, en hann var ekki að launa drengjunum fyrir neitt, hvorki gott né illt.

罗马书 9:10–13的不同译本

中文

当代译本 (简) ¹⁰后来，利百加和我们的先祖以撒结婚，怀了双胞胎。 ¹¹在这对孩子还未出生，还没有显出谁善谁恶之时，上帝为了显明自己拣选人并不是按人的行为，而是按祂自己的旨意， ¹²便对利百加说：“将来大的要服侍小的。” ¹³正如圣经上说：“我爱雅各，厌恶以扫。”

當代譯本 (繁) ¹⁰後來，利百加和我們的先祖以撒結婚，懷了雙胞胎。 ¹¹在這對孩子還未出生，還沒有顯出誰善誰惡之時，上帝為了顯明自己揀選人並不是按人的行為，而是按祂自己的旨意， ¹²便對利百加說：「將來大的要服侍小的。」 ¹³正如聖經上說：「我愛雅各，厭惡以掃。」

标准译本 (简) ¹⁰不仅如此，莉百加也是这样。她由一个人，就是由我们的先祖以撒怀了孕。 ¹¹实际上，双子还没有出生，也没有行善或作恶以前——为了要显明神的拣选心意不是本于人的行为，而是出于召唤人的那一位—— ¹²神就对莉百加说：“大的将要服事小的。” ¹³正如经上所记：“我爱雅各，却恨以扫。”

標準譯本 (繁) ¹⁰不僅如此，莉百加也是這樣。她由一個人，就是由我們的先祖以撒懷了孕。 ¹¹實際上，雙子還沒有出生，也沒有行善或作惡以前——為了要顯明神的揀選心意不是本於人的行為，而是出於召喚人的那一位—— ¹²神就對莉百加說：「大的將要服事小的。」 ¹³正如經上所記：「我愛雅各，卻恨以掃。」

易读圣经 ¹⁰不仅如此，我们的祖先以撒也是利百加双胞胎儿子的父亲。 ¹¹但就在双胞胎出生之前，在他们做出任何正义或错误行为之前，（这样上帝的旨意才能延续，证明上帝并非根据人的行为而对其进行召唤） ¹²她就已被告知，“哥哥将会为弟弟服务。” ¹³正如经文所记：“我选择雅各，放弃以扫。”

现代标点和合本 (简) ¹⁰不但如此，还有利百加，既从一个人，就是从我们的祖宗以撒怀了孕， ¹¹双子还没有生下来，善恶还没有做出来——只因要显明神拣选人的旨意，不在乎人的行为，乃在乎召人的主—— ¹²神就对利百加说：“将来大的要服侍小的。” ¹³正如经上所记：“雅各是我所爱的，以扫是我所恶的。”

現代標點和合本 (繁) ¹⁰不但如此，還有利百加，既從一個人，就是從我們的祖宗以撒懷了孕， ¹¹雙子還沒有生下來，善惡還沒有做出來——只因要顯明神揀選人的旨意，不在乎人的行為，乃在乎召人的主—— ¹²神就對利百加說：「將來大的要服侍小的。」 ¹³正如經上所記：「雅各是我所愛的，以掃是我所惡的。」

普通话本 ¹⁰不但如此，利百加还生了两个儿子，他们的父亲是我们的祖先以撒。 ^11–12在他们出生前，上帝便对利百加说: “大儿子要伺候小儿子。”这是在他们还没有做任何好事或坏事之前。上帝在他们出生之前这么说，因为这是上帝的计划，以便他想要的男孩被选。雅各被挑选是因为他是上帝想要召唤的人，而不是因为他的所作所为。 ¹³正如《经》中所说: “我喜爱雅各却恨以扫。”

英语

KJV (66 books) ¹⁰And not only this; but when Rebecca also had conceived by one, even by our father Isaac; ¹¹(For the children being not yet born, neither having done any good or evil, that the purpose of God according to election might stand, not of works, but of him that calleth;) ¹²It was said unto her, The elder shall serve the younger. ¹³As it is written, Jacob have I loved, but Esau have I hated.

AFINT (Exp US) ¹⁰And not only was this principle of divine selection seen with Sarah, but also when Rebecca had conceived twin children by one man, Isaac our father. ¹¹For although the twin children had not yet been born, nor had done anything either good or evil—so that God’s purpose and plan according to His sovereign election might stand firm and continue, ¹²Not based on human works or merit but based on God’s sovereign call and choice—it was said to her before their birth, “The older will serve the younger,” reversing natural expectations. ¹³Just as it stands written in Scripture: “Jacob I loved and chose, but Esau I rejected”—demonstrating God’s sovereign choice in election.

AFINT (Lit US) ¹⁰And not only this, but also when Rebecca had conceived children by one man, Isaac, our father. ¹¹For although the children, having not yet been born, nor having done anything good or evil—so that the promise of God according to election might continue, ¹²not of works but of the One who calls—it was said to her, “The older will serve the younger,” ¹³just as it is written: “Jacob I loved, but Esau I hated.”

ASV ¹⁰And not only so; but Rebecca also having conceived by one, even by our father Isaac— ¹¹for the children being not yet born, neither having done anything good or bad, that the purpose of God according to election might stand, not of works, but of him that calleth, ¹²it was said unto her, The elder shall serve the younger. ¹³Even as it is written, Jacob I loved, but Esau I hated.

BSB ¹⁰Not only that, but Rebecca’s children were conceived by one man, our father Isaac. ¹¹Yet before the twins were born or had done anything good or bad, in order that God’s plan of election might stand, ¹²not by works but by Him who calls, she was told, “The older will serve the younger.” ¹³So it is written: “Jacob I loved, but Esau I hated.”

DRA ¹⁰And not only she. But when Rebecca also had conceived at once, of Isaac our father. ¹¹For when the children were not yet born, nor had done any good or evil (that the purpose of God, according to election, might stand,) ¹²Not of works, but of him that calleth, it was said to her: The elder shall serve the younger. ¹³As it is written: Jacob I have loved, but Esau I have hated.

EMTV ¹⁰And not only this, but also Rebecca, having conceived from the one man, our father Isaac; ¹¹(for the children not yet being born, nor having done anything good or evil, that the purpose of God according to election might stand, not of works but of Him who calls), ¹²it was said to her, “The older shall serve the younger.” ¹³As it is written, “Jacob I loved, but Esau I hated.”

FBV ¹⁰In addition Rebecca's twin sons had the same father, our forefather Isaac. ¹¹But even before the children were born, and before they'd done anything right or wrong (so that God's purpose could continue, proving God's calling of people is not based on human performance), ¹²she was told, “The older brother will serve the younger one.” ¹³As Scripture says, “I chose Jacob, but rejected Esau.”

GNV ¹⁰Neither he onely felt this, but also Rebecca when shee had conceiued by one, euen by our father Isaac. ¹¹For yer the children were borne, and when they had neither done good, nor euill (that the purpose of God might remaine according to election, not by workes, but by him that calleth) ¹²It was said vnto her, The elder shall serue the yonger. ¹³As it is written, I haue loued Iacob, and haue hated Esau.

LSV ¹⁰And not only [so], but also Rebecca, having conceived by one—our father Isaac ¹¹(for they being not yet born, neither having done anything good or evil, that the purpose of God, according to [divine] selection, might remain; not of works, but of Him who is calling), ¹²it was said to her, “The greater will serve the less”; ¹³according as it has been written: “Jacob I loved, and Esau I hated.”

MSB ¹⁰Not only that, but Rebecca’s children were conceived by one man, our father Isaac. ¹¹Yet before the twins were born or had done anything good or evil, in order that God’s plan of election might stand, ¹²not by works but by Him who calls, she was told, “The older will serve the younger.” ¹³So it is written: “Jacob I loved, but Esau I hated.”

NASB ¹⁰And not only that, but there was also Rebekah, when she had conceived twins by one man, our father Isaac; ¹¹for though the twins were not yet born and had not done anything good or bad, so that God’s purpose according to His choice would stand, not because of works but because of Him who calls, ¹²it was said to her, “The older will serve the younger.” ¹³Just as it is written: “Jacob I have loved, but Esau I have hated.” NASB 2020

NIV (US) ¹⁰Not only that, but Rebekah’s children were conceived at the same time by our father Isaac. ¹¹Yet, before the twins were born or had done anything good or bad—in order that God’s purpose in election might stand: ¹²not by works but by him who calls—she was told, “The older will serve the younger.” ¹³Just as it is written: “Jacob I loved, but Esau I hated.”

NMV ¹⁰And not only [this]; but when Rebecca also had conceived by one, [even] by our father Yitz’khak [Laughter]; ¹¹(For [the children] being not yet born, neither having done any good or evil, that the purpose of God-The Father according to election might stand, not of works, but of him that calls;) ¹²It was said unto her, The elder shall serve the younger. ¹³As it is written, Ya’akov [He who grabs onto the heal of] [Heal of God] have I loved, but ‘Esav [Hairy] have I hated.

OJB ¹⁰Not only so, but also in the case of Rivkah (Isaacʼs wife) who conceived by the one act of sexual intercourse with Yitzchak Avinu. ¹¹For when they were not yet born nor had they done any mitzvah or averah, in order that the etzah (wisdom) of the tochnit Hashem (purposeful and willed plan of G-d) should stand in terms of bechirah (divine election, selection, choosing), ¹²Not from mitzvos but from the One who makes the kri'ah (divine summons), it was said to her, RAV YA'AVOD TZA'IR (the elder will serve the younger), ¹³As it is written, VA'OHAV ES YA'AKOV V'ES ESAV SANEITI (Ya'akov have I loved, but Esau have I hated).

TCENT ¹⁰Not only that, but when Rebecca had conceived by one man, our father Isaac, ¹¹though her sons were not yet born and had done nothing good or evil, in order for the purpose of God's choice to stand (not because of works but because of him who calls), ¹²she was told, “The older will serve the younger.” ¹³As it is written, “Jacob I loved, but Esau I hated.”

T4T ¹⁰And not only then did God show that he did not determine who would be his true children according to who their ancestors were. He showed it again when Rebecca conceived twins by our ancestor Isaac. ^11–12Before the twins, Jacob and Esau, were born, when neither one had yet done anything good or bad, God said to Rebecca about the twins she was to bear, “The older one shall later serve the younger one, contrary to normal custom.” God said this in order that we might clearly understand that what he purposed for people was according to what he himself determined. That is, people’s eternal destiny does not depend on what they do. Instead, their destiny depends on God, the one who chooses them. ¹³And this teaching is ◄supported/shown to be true► by what is written in the Scriptures {what a prophet recorded} that God said: “I favored Jacob, the younger son. I did not favor [HYP] Esau, the older son.”

WEB (US) ¹⁰Not only so, but Rebekah also conceived by one, by our father Isaac. ¹¹For being not yet born, neither having done anything good or bad, that the purpose of God according to election might stand, not of works, but of him who calls, ¹²it was said to her, “The elder will serve the younger.” ¹³Even as it is written, “Jacob I loved, but Esau I hated.”
