1:1 以色列的眾子,各帶家眷,和雅各一同來到埃及。他們的名字記在下面。 These are the names of the sons of Israel who went to Egypt with Jacob, each with his family:
1:2 有呂便、西緬、利未、猶大、 Reuben, Simeon, Levi and Judah; 1:3 以薩迦、西布倫、便雅憫、 Issachar, Zebulun and Benjamin; 1:4 但、拿弗他利、迦得、亞設。 Dan and Naphtali; Gad and Asher. 1:5 凡從雅各而生的,共有七十人。約瑟已經在埃及。 The descendants of Jacob numbered seventy(((\f 1:5 Masoretic Text (see also Gen. 46:27); Dead Sea Scrolls and Septuagint (see also Acts 7:14 and note at Gen. 46:27) ((seventy-five))\F) in all; Joseph was already in Egypt. 1:6 約瑟和他的弟兄,並那一代的人,都死了。 Now Joseph and all his brothers and all that generation died, 1:7 以色列人生養眾多,並且繁茂,極其強盛,滿了那地。 but the Israelites were fruitful and multiplied greatly and became exceedingly numerous, so that the land was filled with them. 1:8 有不認識約瑟的新王起來,治理埃及, Then a new king, who did not know about Joseph, came to power in Egypt. 1:9 對他的百姓說:「看哪,這以色列民比我們還多,又比我們強盛。 <<Look,>> he said to his people, <<the Israelites have become much too numerous for us. 1:10 來吧,我們不如用巧計待他們,恐怕他們多起來,日後若遇甚麼爭戰的事,就連合我們的仇敵攻擊我們,離開這地去了。」 Come, we must deal shrewdly with them or they will become even more numerous and, if war breaks out, will join our enemies, fight against us and leave the country.>> 1:11 於是埃及人派督工的轄制他們,加重擔苦害他們。他們為法老建造兩座積貨城,就是比東和蘭塞。 So they put slave masters over them to oppress them with forced labor, and they built Pithom and Rameses as store cities for Pharaoh. 1:12 只是越發苦害他們,他們越發多起來,越發蔓延;埃及人就因以色列人愁煩。 But the more they were oppressed, the more they multiplied and spread; so the Egyptians came to dread the Israelites 1:13 埃及人嚴嚴地使以色列人做工, and worked them ruthlessly. 1:14 使他們因做苦工覺得命苦;無論是和泥,是做磚,是做田間各樣的工,在一切的工上都嚴嚴地待他們。 They made their lives bitter with hard labor in brick and mortar and with all kinds of work in the fields; in all their hard labor the Egyptians used them ruthlessly. 1:15 有希伯來的兩個收生婆,一名施弗拉,一名普阿;埃及王對她們說: The king of Egypt said to the Hebrew midwives, whose names were Shiphrah and Puah, 1:16 「你們為希伯來婦人收生,看她們臨盆的時候,若是男孩,就把他殺了;若是女孩,就留她存活。」 <<When you help the Hebrew women in childbirth and observe them on the delivery stool, if it is a boy, kill him; but if it is a girl, let her live.>> 1:17 但是收生婆敬畏 神,不照埃及王的吩咐行,竟存留男孩的性命。 The midwives, however, feared God and did not do what the king of Egypt had told them to do; they let the boys live. 1:18 埃及王召了收生婆來,說:「你們為甚麼做這事,存留男孩的性命呢?」 Then the king of Egypt summoned the midwives and asked them, <<Why have you done this? Why have you let the boys live?>> 1:19 收生婆對法老說:「因為希伯來婦人與埃及婦人不同;希伯來婦人本是健壯的〔原文是活潑的〕,收生婆還沒有到,她們已經生產了。」 The midwives answered Pharaoh, <<Hebrew women are not like Egyptian women; they are vigorous and give birth before the midwives arrive.>> 1:20 神厚待收生婆。以色列人多起來,極其強盛。 So God was kind to the midwives and the people increased and became even more numerous. 1:21 收生婆因為敬畏 神, 神便叫她們成立家室。 And because the midwives feared God, he gave them families of their own. 1:22 法老吩咐他的眾民說:「以色列人所生的男孩,你們都要丟在河裏;一切的女孩,你們要存留她的性命。」 Then Pharaoh gave this order to all his people: <<Every boy that is born ((\f 1:22 Masoretic Text; Samaritan Pentateuch, Septuagint and Targums ((born to the Hebrews))\F) you must throw into the Nile, but let every girl live.>>

線上使用者荒漠甘泉五合一「用繩索把祭牲拴住,牽到壇角那裏。」詩篇一一八篇27節 讀者啊,祭壇不是在呼召我們嗎?我們不是要請求繩索把我們拴在祭壇上,使我們永遠不把我們的奉獻拿回來嗎?我們常常在生活充滿了玫瑰色光彩的時候,樂意選擇十字架;在天色灰暗的時候,就退縮了。所以如果能用繩索把我們拴住的話,多麼好呢! 主啊,求你把我們拴住,拴在十字架上,讓我們永遠不會離開它。求你用救恩的紅繩、愛的金繩、望的銀繩,把我們拴住,叫我們不能逃回舊日的寬路去,也叫我們不去羨慕別的命運─只羨慕作主痛苦悲傷中卑賤的伴侶! 讀者啊,壇角在呼召你了。你願不願意來呢?你願不願意永遠居在順從謙卑的靈中,把你自己完全奉獻給主呢? ─選 在一次野外聚會裏,有一位弟兄,願意把自己奉獻給神。他每天晚上在祭壇旁邊奉獻自己;但是每天晚上在他離開聚會以前,魔鬼就來使他相信:他並沒有感覺甚麼分別,一定是神沒有接受他的奉獻。 一次一次他這樣被仇敵擊退,最後一天晚上,他來赴會的時候,帶了一把斧頭和一根長大的木樁來。他把自己奉獻了以後,就將木樁釘入他所跪的那塊地上。當他走出會場的時候,魔鬼又來引誘他相信這一切都不過是一幕戲劇而已。 他立刻回到木樁那裏,指著木樁說:「你看,魔鬼先生,你看見那根木樁嗎?那就是我的證人—─證明神已經永遠接受了我。」魔鬼立即離開了他,這位弟兄對於這個問題,以後再沒有甚麼疑惑了。 ─微小的聲音 親愛的,如果你也受了引誘疑惑你的奉獻的話,你也可以在一個地方釘下一根木樁,讓它在神前、魔鬼前,做一個證人說,你已經永遠解決了這個問題。 你是否在尋求幸福, 而無處可遇? 只要聽取主的吩咐, 就會找到門路。 你是否在爭取得救, 而焦急祈求, 不必爭取, 只要信靠, 就會被神收留。 你的祈求懇切熱心, 卻遲遲不見回音, 把你的祈求變為讚美, 答應就會到臨。 你無從領會神的美滿, 除非你能放擔息肩, 把你的一切交託給神, 纔可領會完全。 ─心靈之歌
