   綜覽 舊約全書 福音書 詩篇     

以斯帖記, 1章

1:1 亞哈隨魯作王,從印度直到古實,統管一百二十七省。 This is what happened during the time of Xerxes, 1:1 Hebrew ((Ahasuerus,)) a variant of Xerxes' Persian name; here and throughout Esther the Xerxes who ruled over 127 provinces stretching from India to Cush: 1:1 That is, the upper Nile region
1:2 亞哈隨魯王在書珊城的宮登基; At that time King Xerxes reigned from his royal throne in the citadel of Susa,
1:3 在位第三年,為他一切首領臣僕設擺筵席,有波斯和米底亞的權貴,就是各省的貴冑與首領,在他面前。 and in the third year of his reign he gave a banquet for all his nobles and officials. The military leaders of Persia and Media, the princes, and the nobles of the provinces were present.
1:4 他把他榮耀之國的豐富和他美好威嚴的尊貴給他們看了許多日,就是一百八十日。 For a full 180 days he displayed the vast wealth of his kingdom and the splendor and glory of his majesty.
1:5 這日子滿了,又為所有住書珊城的大小人民在御園的院子裏設擺筵席七日。 When these days were over, the king gave a banquet, lasting seven days, in the enclosed garden of the king's palace, for all the people from the least to the greatest, who were in the citadel of Susa.
1:6 有白色、綠色、藍色的帳子,用細麻繩、紫色繩從銀環內繫在白玉石柱上;有金銀的榻擺在紅、白、黃、黑玉石鋪的石地上。 The garden had hangings of white and blue linen, fastened with cords of white linen and purple material to silver rings on marble pillars. There were couches of gold and silver on a mosaic pavement of porphyry, marble, mother-of-pearl and other costly stones.
1:7 用金器皿賜酒,器皿各有不同。御酒甚多,足顯王的厚意。 Wine was served in goblets of gold, each one different from the other, and the royal wine was abundant, in keeping with the king's liberality.
1:8 喝酒有例,不准勉強人,因王吩咐宮裏的一切臣宰,讓人各隨己意。 By the king's command each guest was allowed to drink in his own way, for the king instructed all the wine stewards to serve each man what he wished.
1:9 王后瓦實提在亞哈隨魯王的宮內也為婦女設擺筵席。 Queen Vashti also gave a banquet for the women in the royal palace of King Xerxes.
1:10 第七日,亞哈隨魯王飲酒,心中快樂,就吩咐在他面前侍立的七個太監米戶幔、比斯他、哈波拿、比革他、亞拔他、西達、甲迦, On the seventh day, when King Xerxes was in high spirits from wine, he commanded the seven eunuchs who served him--Mehuman, Biztha, Harbona, Bigtha, Abagtha, Zethar and Carcas--
1:11 請王后瓦實提頭戴王后的冠冕到王面前,使各等臣民看她的美貌,因為她容貌甚美。 to bring before him Queen Vashti, wearing her royal crown, in order to display her beauty to the people and nobles, for she was lovely to look at.
1:12 王后瓦實提卻不肯遵太監所傳的王命而來,所以王甚發怒,心如火燒。 But when the attendants delivered the king's command, Queen Vashti refused to come. Then the king became furious and burned with anger.
1:13 那時,在王左右常見王面、國中坐高位的,有波斯和米底亞的七個大臣,就是甲示拿、示達、押瑪他、他施斯、米力、瑪西拿、米母干,都是達時務的明哲人。按王的常規,辦事必先詢問知例明法的人。王問他們說: Since it was customary for the king to consult experts in matters of law and justice, he spoke with the wise men who understood the times
1:14 那時,在王左右常見王面、國中坐高位的,有波斯和米底亞的七個大臣,就是甲示拿、示達、押瑪他、他施斯、米力、瑪西拿、米母干,都是達時務的明哲人。按王的常規,辦事必先詢問知例明法的人。王問他們說: and were closest to the king--Carshena, Shethar, Admatha, Tarshish, Meres, Marsena and Memucan, the seven nobles of Persia and Media who had special access to the king and were highest in the kingdom.
1:15 「王后瓦實提不遵太監所傳的王命,照例應當怎樣辦理呢?」 <<According to law, what must be done to Queen Vashti?>> he asked. <<She has not obeyed the command of King Xerxes that the eunuchs have taken to her.>>
1:16 米母干在王和眾首領面前回答說:「王后瓦實提這事,不但得罪王,並且有害於王各省的臣民; Then Memucan replied in the presence of the king and the nobles, <<Queen Vashti has done wrong, not only against the king but also against all the nobles and the peoples of all the provinces of King Xerxes.
1:17 因為王后這事必傳到眾婦人的耳中,說:『亞哈隨魯王吩咐王后瓦實提到王面前,她卻不來』,她們就藐視自己的丈夫。 For the queen's conduct will become known to all the women, and so they will despise their husbands and say, <King Xerxes commanded Queen Vashti to be brought before him, but she would not come.>
1:18 今日波斯和米底亞的眾夫人聽見王后這事,必向王的大臣照樣行;從此必大開藐視和忿怒之端。 This very day the Persian and Median women of the nobility who have heard about the queen's conduct will respond to all the king's nobles in the same way. There will be no end of disrespect and discord.
1:19 王若以為美,就降旨寫在波斯和米底亞人的例中,永不更改,不准瓦實提再到王面前,將她王后的位分賜給比她還好的人。 <<Therefore, if it pleases the king, let him issue a royal decree and let it be written in the laws of Persia and Media, which cannot be repealed, that Vashti is never again to enter the presence of King Xerxes. Also let the king give her royal position to someone else who is better than she.
1:20 所降的旨意傳遍通國(國度本來廣大),所有的婦人,無論丈夫貴賤都必尊敬他。」 Then when the king's edict is proclaimed throughout all his vast realm, all the women will respect their husbands, from the least to the greatest.>>
1:21 王和眾首領都以米母干的話為美,王就照這話去行, The king and his nobles were pleased with this advice, so the king did as Memucan proposed.
1:22 發詔書,用各省的文字、各族的方言通知各省,使為丈夫的在家中作主,各說本地的方言。 He sent dispatches to all parts of the kingdom, to each province in its own script and to each people in its own language, proclaiming in each people's tongue that every man should be ruler over his own household.

    「耶穌背著自己的十字架出來。」約翰福音十九章17節

    有一首詩名叫「換來的十字架」。裏面講到一疲乏的姊妹,以為她的十字架,一定比別人的更重,所以渴望和別人換一個背背。一天,她做了一個夢,夢中她到了一個地方,在那裏橫著許多十字架———各種形狀不同,大小不同的十字架。有一個小十字架形狀最美麗,上面鑲嵌著寶石和黃金。這個姊妹一看見就說,「啊,這一個背著一定舒適。」所以她就把它拿起來,不料她虛弱的身體,竟在這個十字架下面震顫了。寶石和黃金果然美麗,可是它們太重了,她背不動。

    後來,她又看見一可愛的十字架,彫刻的木架上,盤著美麗的鮮花。她想:這一定容易背了。她就將它舉起來,不料鮮花下面,有許多尖銳的刺,刺痛了她的皮肉。

    她一步一步向前走去,一個一個試著,發見每一個十字架,都不容易背。最後,她看見一個樸素的十字架,上面沒有寶石,也沒有彫刻,只書著幾句親愛的話。她拿起它來,覺得這是許多中間最容易背的一個。她向它仔細一看,在陽光下,她認得這原來是她自己的舊十字架。啊!這個舊十字架竟是許多十字架中間最好最輕的一個!

    親愛的讀者,神知道我們需要背的是那一個十字架。我們不知道別人的十字架多麼重。我們常常艷羨有錢的人─—他們的十字架是黃金的,上面鑲嵌著寶石—─我們卻不知道這十字架是多麼重。還有一些人,她們的生活似乎很是可愛—─她們背著盤著鮮花的十字架—─我們卻不知道鮮花下面有許多尖銳的刺。如果我們能去試試別人的—─我們以為比我們自己的更輕的─—十字架看,我們就會發現:這些十字架中間,沒有一個像我們自己這個那樣叫我們滿意。
              ─譯自信徒生活一瞥

    假若你沒有耐心,
    卸下你的十字架,
    在此世上和末世你再也找不到它;
    因為這十字架只給你在此時此地
    為神的緣故而背負。
    再則它使我們能更加至誠至愛祂,
    侍奉祂,
    帶著喜悅之情,
    一步一步親近祂。
    此後我們不再被喚去背負十字架,
    這是我們此刻的任務。
    你難道不能多忍受一刻嗎?
    假若今天祂就從你的十字架上召喚你說:
    「事情完了,
    你可以卸下你祈求解脫沈重的十字架」。
    你豈不要懊悔說:
    「這麼快,
    讓我回頭再背一陣,
    因我尚未讚美祂」。
    無論何時,
    當我們所盼望的召喚來到,
    我們就會覺得這甚快,
    願我們及時留意,
    使我們現在就榮耀祂。

    "And he went out carrying his own cross." (John 19:17.)

     THERE is a poem called "The Changed Cross." It represents a weary one who thought that her cross was surely heavier than those of others whom she saw about her, and she wished that she might choose another instead of her own. She slept, and in her dream she was led to a place where many crosses lay, crosses of different shapes and sizes. There was a little one most beauteous to behold, set in jewels and gold. "Ah, this I can wear with comfort," she said. So she took it up, but her weak form shook beneath it. The jewels and the gold were beautiful, but they were far too heavy for her.

     Next she saw a lovely cross with fair flowers entwinel around its sculptured form. Surely that was the one for her. She lifted it, but beneath the flowers were piercing thorns which tore her flesh.

     At last, as she went on, she came to a plain cross, without jewels, without carvings, with only a few words of love inscribed upon it. This she took up and it proved the best of all, the easiest to be borne. And as she looked upon it, bathed in the radiance that fell from Heaven, she recognized her own old cross. She had found it again, and it was the best of all and lightest for her.

     God knows best what cross we need to bear. We do not know, how heavy other people's cross are. We envy someone who is rich; his is a golden cross set with jewels, but we do not know how heavy it is. Here is another whose life seems very lovely. She bears a cross twined with flowers. If we could try all athe other crosses that we think lighter than our own, we would at last find that not one of them suited us so well as our own.─Glimpses through Life's Windows.

    If thou, impatient, dost let slip thy cross,
    Thou wilt not find it in this world again,
    Nor in another; here and here alone,
    Is given thee to suffer for God's sake.
    In other worlds we may more perfectly,
    Love Him and serve Him, praise Him,
    Grow nearer and nearer to Him with delight.
    But then we shall not any more
    Be called to suffer, which is our appointment here.
    Canst thou not suffer, then, one hour or two?
    If He should call thee from thy cross today,
    Saying: "It is finished─that hard cross of thine
    From which thou prayest for deliverance,"
    Thinkest thou not some passion of regret
    Would overcome thee? Thou would'st say,
    "So soon? Let me go back and suffer yet awhile
    More patiently, I have not yet praised God."
    Whensoe'er it comes, that summons that we look for,
    It will seem soon, too soon. Let us take heed in time,
    That God may now be glorified in us.
              ─Ugo Bassi's Sermon in a Hospital.

    八月廿九日 跟從十字架

    「主為我們捨命,我們從此就知道何為愛,我們也當為弟兄捨命。」約翰壹書三章16節

    「人為朋友捨命,人的愛心沒有比這個更大的。」從主為我們而死,就向我們啟示那不可思議的愛。現在這愛的影響和能力住在我們裏面,使我們有份於實踐今天的經文:「我們也當為弟兄捨命」,而像基督的生活和愛心都應該在弟兄身上找到。

    基督的十字架是藉我們對基督愛的認識來衡量的,也是根據我們對周圍肢體的愛來測知。唯有衷心對十字架上基督的愛,才能每日使我們的生命有生氣,對肢體的愛也有相同的作用;我們與基督十字架的交通而有捨己的愛,不僅彰顯於基督身上,也在週遭肢體身上。

    在此,約翰對內裏生命的呼籲是完全地超然並屬靈,只有以信心接受基督親自內住在我們心中,並確實在其中運行,才能使我們接受此一命令:「若有人要跟從我就當捨己,背起他的十字架來跟從我。」除非治死天然的本性,將「老我」與「肉體」切實地與基督同釘死在十字架上,我們就能不犯罪——除非這樣,否則我們無法說:「我們喜愛祂的誡命,其誡命並非難以遵守。」

    然而若非每天持續住在基督耶穌裏,與基督的死交通並傚法之,才能照祂的應許奏效,藉聖靈在我們裏面對基督的啟示和榮耀,我們能深信祂的生命要住在我們裏面;祂要證明加略山上的愛,只有祂能親自使我們說祂的生命傾注在我們裏面,我也當為周圍弟兄而活的真理。只有藉著基督內住,才能使教會做到以基督的愛對待弟兄;而別人也因此看出我們是基督的門徒;世人也才會相信神已經恩待我,像祂愛基督一樣。

    八月廿九日 與神親密的關係

    「我不是對你說過,你若信,就必看見神的榮耀麼?」約翰福音十一章40節

    你在信仰方面敢作敢為的事,在理性方面你必感覺得衝突。理性不是信仰,信仰不是理性;它們的關係,就如自然和聖靈的關係。在你理性所不能信的時候,你能信靠基督麼?當你的理性認為不真,你能英勇的照耶穌基督的話去做嗎?在山上是容易說──「啊,是的,我信神能作這個」,但是你到被鬼附著的山谷裡,遇見事實,你會諷笑你變形山上的信仰的全部。無論甚麼時候,我心裡的信仰的程序是清楚明白的,我所經過的事情總有與它相牴觸的事。惟願我能說我相信神供給我一切的需要,但是,到遇見困難而無出路的時候,我是緊緊握著信心呢?還是退後呢?

    信仰是必得試驗的,因為信仰,必要經過衝突,才能為私人所有。此刻你的信仰有否難的問題?這種試驗不是保證你的信仰正確,便是消滅你的信仰。「凡不因我跌倒的,就有福了」。最後一著,就是信任耶穌。絕然信靠祂,「凡你所遇見的,都足以發展你的信仰。」在信仰的生活裡,有不斷的試驗,最末後的大試驗就是死。但願神保守我們,使我們能應付前面的戰爭!信仰是以不能用言語形容的信心信靠神,絕不想到祂不在我們旁邊援助我們!

    「……聽命勝於獻祭……」撒母耳記上十五章22節

    當我們順服神時,祂常以醫治我們為報酬。若是我們要討祂的喜悅,得到討祂喜悅的人的獎賞,最令祂接受的事奉,則是我們對祂的讚美。

    讓我們帶著歡喜及感恩的心接待神,那麼祂就會使我們的臉上反映出祂的榮光。再說,活潑的生命、健康的體魄,都是一個快樂的心所帶來的產品。

    事實上,感恩的態度是建立信心的前奏,讚美的心則能使信心同時成長。懂得感恩的人總是樂觀,而且只看神輝煌的一面;也只有用這樣的心態,我們才能永遠地倚靠祂。不信的人則老是看著自己的問題,但問題往往越看越大,甚至變成了高山峻嶺,結果叫人信心全失。有感恩之心的人無論在何種情況下,都能找到令他快樂的原因。反之,悲觀的人即使在晴空萬里時,也能找到一片烏雲,或是在最甜的香膏中發現一隻蒼蠅。願我們能培養出一個喜樂的靈,並且在神和我們的生命中,不斷地發現那些能激勵我們的事,使我們沒有時間懷疑或是懼怕。
