1:1 猶大王約雅敬在位第三年,巴比倫王尼布甲尼撒來到耶路撒冷,將城圍困。 In the third year of the reign of Jehoiakim king of Judah, Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon came to Jerusalem and besieged it.
1:2 主將猶大王約雅敬,並 神殿中器皿的幾分交付他手。他就把這器皿帶到示拿地,收入他神的廟裏,放在他神的庫中。 And the Lord delivered Jehoiakim king of Judah into his hand, along with some of the articles from the temple of God. These he carried off to the temple of his god in Babylonia 1:2 Hebrew ((Shinar)) and put in the treasure house of his god. 1:3 王吩咐太監長亞施毗拿,從以色列人的宗室和貴冑中帶進幾個人來, Then the king ordered Ashpenaz, chief of his court officials, to bring in some of the Israelites from the royal family and the nobility-- 1:4 就是年少沒有殘疾、相貌俊美、通達各樣學問、知識聰明俱備、足能侍立在王宮裏的,要教他們迦勒底的文字言語。 young men without any physical defect, handsome, showing aptitude for every kind of learning, well informed, quick to understand, and qualified to serve in the king's palace. He was to teach them the language and literature of the Babylonians. 1:4 Or ((Chaldeans)) 1:5 王派定將自己所用的膳和所飲的酒,每日賜他們一分,養他們三年。滿了三年,好叫他們在王面前侍立。 The king assigned them a daily amount of food and wine from the king's table. They were to be trained for three years, and after that they were to enter the king's service. 1:6 他們中間有猶大族的人:但以理、哈拿尼雅、米沙利、亞撒利雅。 Among these were some from Judah: Daniel, Hananiah, Mishael and Azariah. 1:7 太監長給他們起名:稱但以理為伯提沙撒,稱哈拿尼雅為沙得拉,稱米沙利為米煞,稱亞撒利雅為亞伯尼歌。 The chief official gave them new names: to Daniel, the name Belteshazzar; to Hananiah, Shadrach; to Mishael, Meshach; and to Azariah, Abednego. 1:8 但以理卻立志不以王的膳和王所飲的酒玷污自己,所以求太監長容他不玷污自己。 But Daniel resolved not to defile himself with the royal food and wine, and he asked the chief official for permission not to defile himself this way. 1:9 神使但以理在太監長眼前蒙恩惠,受憐憫。 Now God had caused the official to show favor and sympathy to Daniel, 1:10 太監長對但以理說:「我懼怕我主我王,他已經派定你們的飲食;倘若他見你們的面貌比你們同歲的少年人肌瘦,怎麼好呢?這樣,你們就使我的頭在王那裏難保。」 but the official told Daniel, <<I am afraid of my lord the king, who has assigned your 1:10 The Hebrew for ((your)) and ((you)) in this verse is plural. food and drink. Why should he see you looking worse than the other young men your age? The king would then have my head because of you.>> 1:11 但以理對太監長所派管理但以理、哈拿尼雅、米沙利、亞撒利雅的委辦說: Daniel then said to the guard whom the chief official had appointed over Daniel, Hananiah, Mishael and Azariah, 1:12 「求你試試僕人們十天,給我們素菜吃,白水喝, <<Please test your servants for ten days: Give us nothing but vegetables to eat and water to drink. 1:13 然後看看我們的面貌和用王膳那少年人的面貌,就照你所看的待僕人吧!」 Then compare our appearance with that of the young men who eat the royal food, and treat your servants in accordance with what you see.>> 1:14 委辦便允准他們這件事,試看他們十天。 So he agreed to this and tested them for ten days. 1:15 過了十天,見他們的面貌比用王膳的一切少年人更加俊美肥胖。 At the end of the ten days they looked healthier and better nourished than any of the young men who ate the royal food. 1:16 於是委辦撤去派他們用的膳,飲的酒,給他們素菜吃。 So the guard took away their choice food and the wine they were to drink and gave them vegetables instead. 1:17 這四個少年人, 神在各樣文字學問〔學問:原文是智慧〕上賜給他們聰明知識;但以理又明白各樣的異象和夢兆。 To these four young men God gave knowledge and understanding of all kinds of literature and learning. And Daniel could understand visions and dreams of all kinds. 1:18 尼布甲尼撒王預定帶進少年人來的日期滿了,太監長就把他們帶到王面前。 At the end of the time set by the king to bring them in, the chief official presented them to Nebuchadnezzar. 1:19 王與他們談論,見少年人中無一人能比但以理、哈拿尼雅、米沙利、亞撒利雅,所以留他們在王面前侍立。 The king talked with them, and he found none equal to Daniel, Hananiah, Mishael and Azariah; so they entered the king's service. 1:20 王考問他們一切事,就見他們的智慧聰明比通國的術士和用法術的勝過十倍。 In every matter of wisdom and understanding about which the king questioned them, he found them ten times better than all the magicians and enchanters in his whole kingdom. 1:21 到塞魯士王元年,但以理還在。 And Daniel remained there until the first year of King Cyrus.

二月廿六日 「我的恩典是彀你用的。」哥林多後書十二章9節(直譯) 有一天晚上,我整天工作之後,騎馬回家。路上我極感疲乏,差不多要馬上倒下來;忽然之間,一節聖經像閃電一般地照在我的心中:「我的恩典是夠你用的」到家之後,我就在聖經的原文中查考,發現它的語氣是:「我的恩典是夠你用的」;我就對主說:「主啊,我信,我信您的恩典是夠我用的;」此時裏面的喜樂爆發出來,成為歡笑。直到那晚,我纔知道不信神夠用的恩典是何等可笑,亦復可憐。這猶如海洋中一條口渴的小魚,不敢喝水,深怕把水喝乾了;雖然海洋對牠說:「小魚兒儘量喝罷!我的水是夠你喝的。」但是牠仍然不敢。這又好比七個豐年之後,倉廩中一隻小鼠,不敢喫食,深怕以後要餓死;雖然約瑟對牠說:「小鼠兒,儘量吃罷!我的穀粒是夠你喫的。」但是牠仍然不敢。這也像一個人,在高山上,對自己說:「我每年呼吸這許多空氣,我怕我會把空氣中的氧氣吸盡罷。」雖然大氣對他說:「可憐的人啊,儘量吸罷!我的氧氣是夠你呼吸的。」但是他仍不敢。哦,弟兄們,讓我們每一個都作信心的偉人!小信心會帶你的靈到天上去,大信心會帶天到你的靈裏來。 ─司布真 祂的恩典, 偉大得足夠應付大災難, 席捲靈魂的驚波險濤, 窒息生命的暴風怒潮, 不能控制的急雨狂焰。 祂的恩典, 偉大得也夠袪除小麻煩 急躁不寧, 如坐針氈, 疑慮榮心, 如蠅附羶, 憂戚如焚, 獨夜自煎。 ─富林德 神替我們在天上的銀行中存了無數量的款子,等待我們用信心任意支取,讓我們放膽前去支取罷。

February 26 "My grace is sufficient for thee." (2 Cor. 12:9.) THE other evening I was riding home after a heavy day's work. I felt very wearied, and sore depressed, when swiftly, and suddenly as a lightning flash, that text came to me, "My grace is sufficient for thee." I reached home and looked it up in the original, and at last it came to me in this way, "MY grace is sufficient for thee"; and I said, "I should think it is, Lord," and burst out laughing. I never fully understood what the holy laughter of Abraham was until then. It seemed to make unbelief so absurd. It was as though some little fish, being very thirsty, was troubled about drinking the river dry, and Father Thames said, "Drink away, little fish, my stream is sufficient for thee." Or, it seemed after the seven years of plenty, a mouse feared it might die of famine; and Joseph might say, "Cheer up, little mouse, my granaries are sufficient for thee." Again, I imagined a man away up yonder, in a lofty mountain, saying to himself, "I breathe so many cubic feet of air every year, I fear I shall exhaust the oxygen in the atmosphere," but the earth might say, "Breathe away, O man, and fill the lungs ever, my atmosrhere is sufficient for thee." Oh, brethren, be great believers! Little faith will bring your souls to Heaven, but great faith will bring Heaven to your souls. ─C. H. Spurgeon. His grace is great enough to meet the great things─ The crashing waves that overwhelm the soul, The roaring winds that leave us stunned and breathless, The sudden storms beyond our life's control. His grace is great enough to meet the small things─ The little pin-prick troubles that annoy, The insect worries, buzzing and persistent, The squeaking wheels that grate upon our joy. ─Annie Johnson Flint. There is always a large balance to our credit in the bank of Heaven waiting for our exercise of faith in drawing it. Draw heavily upon His resources.

二月廿六日 詩篇 「您的言語在我上膛何等甘美,在我口中比蜜更甜。」詩篇一一九篇103節 本書是要幫助我們去敬拜神。在全部聖經六十六卷裡,詩篇似乎是特別為著這個目標而寫的;其他各卷,是偏於歷史、教訓或應用方面。但是詩篇能帶領我們進入至聖所,在那裡享受與神相交的福分,這是被聖靈感動寫出的一卷敬拜的書。 你若要每個早晨真的遇見神,並用心靈和誠實敬拜祂,你就需要讓你的心充滿了詩篇裡面神的話語。 你讀詩篇的時候,可將該經文中的「耶和華」「神」和一切代表神的字,如「我」「您」「祂」的旁邊劃以紅線。這樣,能幫助你將詩篇裡的意念和神連結,這位神就是禱告的對象。當你不畏難、不嫌麻煩地將關於神的不同名字都劃出來的時候,你就要看見,本來頗難領會的章節,現在都要發出亮光來了。這樣一劃,便使神成為你中心的思想,帶領你有新的敬拜。將這些話從你的嘴裡向神說出。你的信心就要重新得以堅固,並能體會神如何是你在各種環境中的幫助和力量。 這詩篇在舊約時代,如何為聖靈所用,教導神的子民去禱告;照樣,今天也藉著聖靈的能力,教導我們與神同在。 打開詩篇一一九篇碰著「耶和華」和「您」的時候,就劃出來。你就要驚奇地發現,這些字在每一節聖經裡,總要碰著一次!或者不止一次。讓我們思想:在詩篇的字句裡,所遇見的神,就是那賜給我們律法,並使我們能遵守的神。這樣,詩篇就要成為你所喜愛的,你也要發現這裡的禱告和教訓,能使你繼續向神而去,住在祂能力和慈愛的祝福裡面。 「我何等愛慕您的律法,終日不住地思想。」(詩一一九97)

二月廿六日 懷疑耶穌的理由不足 「先生沒有打水的器具。」約翰福音四章11節 「神的道雖是高深,但祂未必期望我在生活中一一行出來!」我們常以為耶穌基督和祂的教訓不比我們的見識高明──「你高超的理想,印象在我們心中,但是與現實的世界接觸,覺得不能見諸實行。」我們每個人有時是這樣想。這些對於耶穌的懷疑,起自擺在我們面前的那些奇怪的問題,就是我們討論神事工的時候所發生的問題──「你們從那裡得錢?你們的事情怎樣安排呢?」就是我們告訴耶穌,我們的情形也是祂難於解決的。「倚靠主,」固然容易,但是一個人要生活。耶穌沒有甚麼東西取水──「從何能給我們這些東西哩!」當心你這些自欺的話──「我不懷疑耶穌,只懷疑我自己。」我們之中,沒有人懷疑自己;我們十二分的知道我們所不能做的是甚麼,可是我們是懷疑耶穌了。祂能做我們所不能做的,這一句話,叫我們有點難受。 我所以懷疑是因為我以自己,去推測神。我的問題是從我劣性的深處發出來的。如果我在我裡面查出這些懷疑,就應該將它們顯露出來,也要坦白的承認──「主啊,我對於您有懷疑之處,我不相信您的智慧離得了我的智慧;我也不相信您的權能離得了我有限的理解。」

二月廿六日 「在各樣善事上,成全你們……。」希伯來書十三章21節 希伯來書結尾的禱告非常美:「但願賜平安的神,就是那憑永約之血,使群羊的大牧人──我主耶穌從死裡復活的神,在各樣善事上成全你們……。」(來十三20—21)「在各樣善事上,成全你們」的字意乃是「使你們能適應各樣善事」。 適應是一件大事,我們得適應周圍的環境及人事,而不能叫環境及人事因我們而改變。例如適應我們不得不相處的人;適應神所給我們的事工,而不是求神來幫助我們做我們的事;適應去實現神給我們一生的旨意及計劃。這其實是我們在屬靈的事上能得到安息、力量及自由的秘密。 主啊!願您以您的豐富充滿我, 直到我的心滿溢, 直到我能用如火般的情緒和生動的話語, 述說您的愛,表達對您的讚美。 主啊!求您用我,求您屢屢用我, 如您所願地,無論在何時或何處用我。 直到我看到您聖潔的臉, 與您同安息、同喜樂、同享榮耀。
