第聞素窘逐我儕者、今宣昔所殘賊之道、

特聞我素窘逐彼者、以所殘賊之道、今傳為福音、

第聞素窘逐之者、窘逐之者原文作窘逐我儕者今傳昔所殘害之道、

They only heard the report:“ The man who formerly persecuted us is now preaching the faith he once tried to destroy.”

They only heard others say,“ The man who used to attack us has changed. He is now preaching the faith he once tried to destroy.”

They only were hearing it said,“ He who used to persecute us is now preaching the faith he once tried to destroy.”

All they knew was that people were saying,“ The one who used to persecute us is now preaching the very faith he tried to destroy!”

They simply kept hearing,“ He who formerly persecuted us now preaches the faith he once tried to destroy.”

but they only kept hearing,“ The man who once persecuted us is now preaching the faith which he once tried to destroy.”

But they were hearing only,“ He who formerly persecuted us now preaches the faith which he once tried to destroy.”

到最後，竟也向我這好像未按產期出生的人顯現。在眾使徒中我最微不足道，根本不配稱為使徒，因為我曾迫害上帝的教會。但靠著上帝的恩典，我成了今天的我，祂賜給我的恩典沒有枉費。我比其他人更加賣力，不過我不是靠自己，而是上帝的恩典與我同在。

亞拿尼亞回答說：「主啊！我聽見許多人說他對耶路撒冷的信徒大加迫害。

上帝的道興旺起來，耶路撒冷的門徒大大增多，連許多祭司也皈信了。

儘管我從前是個褻瀆上帝、迫害和侮辱信徒的人，但我仍然蒙了憐憫，因為那時我無知，還沒有信耶穌。主賜給我豐富的恩典，使我在基督耶穌裡有信心和愛心。有句話千真萬確、完全可信，就是「基督耶穌降世，為要拯救罪人。」在罪人中我是個罪魁，但我依然蒙了憐憫，因為耶穌基督要在我這個罪魁身上彰顯祂無限的忍耐，使我做那些要信靠祂並得到永生之人的榜樣。
