Total Depravity Verse List 「人性全然敗壞」的經文
資料來源（Source）：traviscarden.com
「人性全然敗壞」（Total Depravity）是加爾文五點救恩教義的第一點，也是最基礎的一點，如果我們不能認清這一點，我們就很難完全謙卑地來到神的面前來讚嘆祂就恩計畫的奇妙偉大。以下是我在一個網站上找到所有與「人性全然敗壞」有關的經節，我將這些經節轉成 ESV（English Standard Version）與和合本的翻譯，配合原網站的標題，整理如下：
Is man basically good or basically evil?
- Ecclesiastes 傳道書7:29
See, this alone I found, that God made man upright, but they have sought out many schemes.
我所找到的只有一件，就是神造人原是正直，但他們尋出許多巧計。 - Romans 羅馬書5:7-8
For one will scarcely die for a righteous person--though perhaps for a good person one would dare even to die-- but God shows his love for us in that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us.
為義人死，是少有的；為仁人死、或者有敢做的。惟有基督在我們還作罪人的時候為我們死，神的愛就在此向我們顯明了。 - Romans羅馬書5:12,19
Therefore, just as sin came into the world through one man, and death through sin, and so death spread to all men because all sinned … For as by the one man's disobedience the many were made sinners
這就如罪是從一人入了世界，死又是從罪來的；於是死就臨到眾人，因為眾人都犯了罪…因一人的悖逆，眾人成為罪人
c.f. Job 15:14-16, 25:4-6; Ecclesiastes 9:3
All men? Are there any exceptions?
- Psalm 詩篇143:2
Enter not into judgment with your servant, for no one living is righteous before you.
求你不要審問僕人；因為在你面前，凡活著的人沒有一個是義的。 - Galatians 加拉太書3:22
But the Scripture imprisoned everything under sin
但聖經把眾人都圈在罪裡 - Romans 羅馬書11:32
For God has consigned all to disobedience, that he may have mercy on all.
因為神將眾人都圈在不順服之中，特意要憐恤眾人。 - Romans 羅馬書3:23
for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God,
因為世人都犯了罪，虧缺了神的榮耀； - 2 Chronicles 歷代志下6:36
there is no one who does not sin
世上沒有不犯罪的人 - Isaiah 以賽亞書53:6
All we like sheep have gone astray; we have turned--every one--to his own way;
我們都如羊走迷；各人偏行己路 - Micah 彌迦書7:2-4
The godly has perished from the earth, and there is no one upright among mankind; they all lie in wait for blood, and each hunts the other with a net. Their hands are on what is evil, to do it well; the prince and the judge ask for a bribe, and the great man utters the evil desire of his soul; thus they weave it together. The best of them is like a brier, the most upright of them a thorn hedge. The day of your watchmen, of your punishment, has come; now their confusion is at hand.
地上虔誠人滅盡；世間沒有正直人；各人埋伏，要殺人流血，都用網羅獵取弟兄。他們雙手作惡；君王徇情面，審判官要賄賂；位分大的吐出惡意，都彼此結聯行惡。他們最好的，不過是蒺藜；最正直的，不過是荊棘籬笆。你守望者說，降罰的日子已經來到。他們必擾亂不安。 - Romans 羅馬書3:9-12 (c.f. Psalm 詩篇14:1-3, 53:1-3)
What then? Are we Jews any better off? No, not at all. For we have already charged that all, both Jews and Greeks, are under sin, as it is written: "None is righteous, no, not one; no one understands; no one seeks for God. All have turned aside; together they have become worthless; no one does good, not even one."
這卻怎麼樣呢？我們比他們強嗎？決不是的！因我們已經證明：猶太人和希利尼人都在罪惡之下。就如經上所記：沒有義人，連一個也沒有。沒有明白的；沒有尋求神的；都是偏離正路，一同變為無用。沒有行善的，連一個也沒有。 - 1 John 約翰一書1:8,10
If we say we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us. … If we say we have not sinned, we make him a liar, and his word is not in us.
我們若說自己無罪，便是自欺，真理不在我們心裡了。 … 我們若說自己沒有犯過罪，便是以神為說謊的，他的道也不在我們心裡了。 - Mark 馬可福音10:18/Luke 路加福音18:19
And Jesus said to him, "Why do you call me good? No one is good except God alone."
耶穌對他說：「你為什麼稱我是良善的？除了神一位之外，再沒有良善的。」
c.f. 1 Kings 8:46; 116:11, 130:3, 143:2; Proverbs 20:9; Ecclesiastes 7:20; Jeremiah 2:29; Micah 7:2-4, Mark 10:18; Luke 18:19; Romans 5:12-14; 1 Corinthians 5:9-10; James 3:2; etc., etc.
Are people good deep down?
- Mark馬可福音7:21-23 (c.f. Matthew 馬太福音15:19)
For from within, out of the heart of man, come evil thoughts, sexual immorality, theft, murder, adultery, coveting, wickedness, deceit, sensuality, envy, slander, pride, foolishness. All these evil things come from within, and they defile a person."
因為從裡面，就是從人心裡，發出惡念、苟合、偷盜、兇殺、姦淫、貪婪、邪惡、詭詐、淫蕩、嫉妒、謗讟、驕傲、狂妄。這一切的惡都是從裡面出來，且能污穢人。」 - Psalm 詩篇5:9
For there is no truth in their mouth; their inmost self is destruction; their throat is an open grave; they flatter with their tongue.
因為，他們的口中沒有誠實；他們的心裡滿有邪惡；他們的喉嚨是敞開的墳墓；他們用舌頭諂媚人。
Are men totally depraved? Is every faculty of the person corrupted?
Heart (Hardened, Deceitful)
- Jeremiah 耶利米書17:9
The heart is deceitful above all things, and desperately sick; who can understand it?
人心比萬物都詭詐，壞到極處，誰能識透呢？ - Ecclesiastes 傳道書9:3
the hearts of the children of man are full of evil, and madness is in their hearts while they live, and after that they go to the dead.
世人的心充滿了惡；活著的時候心裡狂妄，後來就歸死人那裡去了 - Matthew 馬太福音15:19 (c.f. Mark 馬可福音7:21-23)
For out of the heart come evil thoughts, murder, adultery, sexual immorality, theft, false witness, slander.
因為從心裡發出來的，有惡念、兇殺、姦淫、苟合、偷盜、妄證、謗讟。 - Genesis 創世紀6:5 & 8:21
The LORD saw that the wickedness of man was great in the earth, and that every intention of the thoughts of his heart was only evil continually … from his youth
耶和華見人在地上罪惡很大，終日所思想的盡都是惡，…從小時 - Psalm 詩篇36:1-2
Transgression speaks to the wicked deep in his heart; there is no fear of God before his eyes. For he flatters himself in his own eyes that his iniquity cannot be found out and hated.
惡人的罪過在他心裡說：我眼中不怕神！他自誇自媚，以為他的罪孽終不顯露，不被恨惡。 - Matthew 馬太福音13:14-15
Indeed, in their case the prophecy of Isaiah is fulfilled that says: "'You will indeed hear but never understand, and you will indeed see but never perceive. For this people's heart has grown dull, and with their ears they can barely hear, and their eyes they have closed, lest they should see with their eyes and hear with their ears and understand with their heart and turn, and I would heal them.'
在他們身上，正應了以賽亞的預言，說：你們聽是要聽見，卻不明白；看是要看見，卻不曉得；因為這百姓油蒙了心，耳朵發沉，眼睛閉著，恐怕眼睛看見，耳朵聽見，心裡明白，回轉過來，我就醫治他們。 - Proverbs 箴言28:26

Mind (Depraved)
- Romans 羅馬書1:28-31
And since they did not see fit to acknowledge God, God gave them up to a debased mind to do what ought not to be done. They were filled with all manner of unrighteousness, evil, covetousness, malice. They are full of envy, murder, strife, deceit, maliciousness. They are gossips, slanderers, haters of God, insolent, haughty, boastful, inventors of evil, disobedient to parents, foolish, faithless, heartless, ruthless.
他們既然故意不認識神，神就任憑他們存邪僻的心，行那些不合理的事；裝滿了各樣不義、邪惡、貪婪、惡毒（或作：陰毒），滿心是嫉妒、兇殺、爭競、詭詐、毒恨；又是讒毀的、背後說人的、怨恨神的（或作：被神所憎惡的）、侮慢人的、狂傲的、自誇的、捏造惡事的、違背父母的。無知的，背約的，無親情的，不憐憫人的。 - Titus 提多書1:15-16

For among all the wise ones of the nations and in all their kingdoms there is none like you. They are both stupid and foolish; the instruction of idols is but wood! … Every man is stupid and without knowledge

我們從前也是無知、悖逆、受迷惑、服事各樣私慾和宴樂，常存惡毒（或作陰毒）嫉妒的心，是可恨的，又是彼此相恨。 - Galatians 加拉太書4:8-9
Formerly, when you did not know God, you were enslaved to those that by nature are not gods. But now that you have come to know God, or rather to be known by God, how can you turn back again to the weak and worthless elementary principles of the world, whose slaves you want to be once more?
但從前你們不認識神的時候，是給那些本來不是神的作奴僕；現在你們既然認識神，更可說是被神所認識的，怎麼還要歸回那懦弱無用的小學，情願再給他作奴僕呢？ - Romans 羅馬書6:6,16,17,19,20
We know that our old self was crucified with him in order that the body of sin might be brought to nothing, so that we would no longer be enslaved to sin. … Do you not know that if you present yourselves to anyone as obedient slaves, you are slaves of the one whom you obey, either of sin, which leads to death, or of obedience, which leads to righteousness? But thanks be to God, that you who were once slaves of sin have become obedient from the heart to the standard of teaching to which you were committed, … I am speaking in human terms, because of your natural limitations. For just as you once presented your members as slaves to impurity and to lawlessness leading to more lawlessness, so now present your members as slaves to righteousness leading to sanctification. For when you were slaves of sin, you were free in regard to righteousness.
因為知道我們的舊人和他同釘十字架，使罪身滅絕，叫我們不再作罪的奴僕；…豈不曉得你們獻上自己作奴僕，順從誰，就作誰的奴僕嗎？或作罪的奴僕，以至於死；或作順命的奴僕，以至成義。感謝神！因為你們從前雖然作罪的奴僕，現今卻從心裡順服了所傳給你們道理的模範。…我因你們肉體的軟弱，就照人的常話對你們說。你們從前怎樣將肢體獻給不潔不法作奴僕，以至於不法；現今也要照樣將肢體獻給義作奴僕，以至於成聖。因為你們作罪之奴僕的時候，就不被義約束了。 - Romans 羅馬書7:14

用溫柔勸戒那抵擋的人；或者神給他們悔改的心，可以明白真道，叫他們這已經被魔鬼任意擄去的，可以醒悟，脫離他的網羅。

Affections/Desires (Perverted)
- Romans 羅馬書1:24
Therefore God gave them up in the lusts of their hearts to impurity, to the dishonoring of their bodies among themselves, because they exchanged the truth about God for a lie and worshiped and served the creature rather than the Creator, who is blessed forever! Amen. For this reason God gave them up to dishonorable passions. For their women exchanged natural relations for those that are contrary to nature; and the men likewise gave up natural relations with women and were consumed with passion for one another, men committing shameless acts with men and receiving in themselves the due penalty for their error.
所以，神任憑他們逞著心裡的情慾行污穢的事，以致彼此玷辱自己的身體。他們將神的真實變為虛謊，去敬拜事奉受造之物，不敬奉那造物的主；主乃是可稱頌的，直到永遠。阿們！因此，神任憑他們放縱可羞恥的情慾。他們的女人把順性的用處變為逆性的用處；男人也是如此，棄了女人順性的用處，慾火攻心，彼此貪戀，男和男行可羞恥的事，就在自己身上受這妄為當得的報應。 - 2 Timothy提摩太後書3:2-4
For people will be lovers of self, lovers of money, proud, arrogant, abusive, disobedient to their parents, ungrateful, unholy, heartless, unappeasable, slanderous, without self-control, brutal, not loving good, treacherous, reckless, swollen with conceit, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God,
因為那時人要專顧自己、貪愛錢財、自誇、狂傲、謗讟、違背父母、忘恩負義、心不聖潔、無親情、不解怨、好說讒言、不能自約、性情兇暴、不愛良善、賣主賣友、任意妄為、自高自大、愛宴樂、不愛神， - Proverbs 箴言21:10

You are of your father the devil, and your will is to do your father's desires.
你們是出於你們的父魔鬼，你們父的私慾你們偏要行。

to the defiled and unbelieving, nothing is pure; but both their minds and their consciences are defiled. They profess to know God, but they deny him by their works. They are detestable, disobedient, unfit for any good work.
在潔淨的人，凡物都潔淨；在污穢不信的人，什麼都不潔淨，連心地和天良也都污穢了。他們說是認識神，行事卻和他相背，本是可憎惡的，是悖逆的，在各樣善事上是可廢棄的。

For the word of the cross is folly to those who are perishing, but to us who are being saved it is the power of God. … For since, in the wisdom of God, the world did not know God through wisdom, it pleased God through the folly of what we preach to save those who believe. For Jews demand signs and Greeks seek wisdom, but we preach Christ crucified, a stumbling block to Jews and folly to Gentiles
