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. 本模組中文化由長島基督福音教會的Jack起始。多次經本人修改,2025年11月由AI協助更改加入朗讀功能,2026年加入搜尋「中、英」字皆可,顯示「黃底紅字」歡迎大家使用!! 荒漠甘泉五合一■ 中文荒漠甘泉(07月27日)
七月廿七日 「你們要將當納的十分之一,全然送入倉庫……以此試試我,是否為你們敞開天上的窗戶,傾福與你們,甚至無處可容。」瑪拉基書三章10節 親愛的讀者,神在這裏對我們說:「我的孩子,天上的窗戶和從前一點沒有兩樣。窗閂和從前一樣光滑。鐵鈕也一點沒有生銹。這窗戶我曾為摩西敞開,紅海分開了。我曾為約書亞敞開,約但河停住了。我曾為基甸敞開,敵軍逃跑了。現在我願意為你敞開,約但河停住了。我曾為基甸敞開,敵軍逃跑了。現在我也願意為你敞開—─只要你肯讓我這樣作。在我這一面,天仍舊是一個豐富的倉庫,泉源仍舊是滿溢的,寶藏室仍舊滿貯著禮物。所有的缺乏不是在我,乃是在你。但是我現在還在等候。試試我看!你去履行你方面的條件─將當納的十分之一,全然送入倉庫─—其餘的事情便是我的了。孩子,給我一個機會—─給我一個傾福與你的機會!」 ─選 我永遠不會忘卻我母親所說的兩句話:給一切神所要求的;取一切神所允許的。 ─戈登 神的能力真是遠超過我們所禱告的!我今天回想一想我多次在神前的請求─—我所請求的是甚麼?我所請求的不過是一小杯水,海洋卻依然留著!我所請求的不過是一線日光,日頭卻依然存在!我所求的和父所給的相差得多遠啊─—父所給的真是遠超過我所求的! ─喬懷德 我要求你那源遠流長的恩賜, 請把一切應許, 都記上我的名字。

July 27 "Prove me now." (Mal. 3:10.) WHAT is God saying here but this: "My child, I still have windows in Heaven. They are yet in service. The bolts slide as easily as of old. The hinges have not grown rusty. I would rather fling them open, and pour forth, than keep them shut, and hold back. I opened them for Moses, and the sea parted. I opened them for Joshua, and Jordan rolled back. I opened them for Gideon, and hosts fled. I will open them for you─if you will only let Me. On this side of the windows, Heaven is the same rich storehouse as of old. The fountains and streams still overflow. The treasure rooms are still bursting with gifts. The lack is not on my side. It is on yours. I am waiting. Prove Me now. Fulfill the conditions, on your part. Bring in the tites. Give Me a chance. ─Selected. I can never forget my mother's very brief paraphrase of Malachi 3:10. The verse begins, "Bring ye the whole tithe in," and it ends up with "I will pour" the blessing out till you'll be embarrassed for space. Her paraphrase was this: Give all He asks; take all He promises." ─S. D. Gordon. The ability of God is beyond our prayers, beyond our largest prayers! I have been thinking of some of the petitions that have entered into my supplication innumerable times. What have I asked for? I have asked for a cupful, and the ocean remains! I have asked for a sunbeam, and the sun abides! My best asking falls immeasurably short of my Father's giving: it is beyond that we can ask. ─J. H. Jowett. "All the rivers of Thy grace I claim. Over every promise write my name." (Epn. 1:8-19.)

七月廿七日 將時間獻給神 「凡事都有定期,天下萬物都有定期。」傳道書三章1節 這是實在的真理,凡事都有定時,難道正如許多理由我們沒有時間與神交通嗎?難道抽點時間與神交談、經歷祂的慈愛和能力,不是最重要的事嗎?我求你給神一點時間吧! 你需要花時間將神的話當作食物吃,餵養屬靈的生命,通過神的話和祂的思想,祂的恩典就能進到我們心裏和生命之中。每天花時間研讀神的話語,即使是幾節亦好;然後默想其中的意思,當作靈糧吸收。假如我們不排除一切困難,讓神藉著聖經向我們說話,怎能期望能順從聖靈的引導?默想神的話,把它當作神對我們應許的印記,用來向神禱告,神的話就是我們禱告的內容、勇氣和能力,我們的禱告所以沒有效果,就是因為我們常用自己的話語,而不花時間想一想神說什麼?讓神的話教導祂的應許和你所需要的是什麼?你要如何禱告才合神心意,藉著讀經禱告預備你的心,使你可與神有因信基督耶穌而有的交通。 親愛神的孩子:這些話對於那些沒有每天花時間與天上的神交通的人,似乎較為深奧,尤其是豐盛的基督內住的生命。除非我們讓神有機會向我們顯示祂自己,並且為我們的心所擁有,不然這種生命就不屬於我們,而我們會因世界的誘惑而分心。

七月廿七日 知的方法 「人若立志遵著祂的旨意行,就必曉得這教訓。」約翰福音七章17節 靈性領悟的金科玉律,不是智力,而是服從。如果一個人要求科學的知識,智力的好奇心,是不可少的;但是如果他要洞悉耶穌基督的教訓,那就只有服從了。如有甚麼事對於我是黑暗的,必定有甚麼事我未做未服從。智力的黑雲是從無知而來;靈性的黑雲是因著我有不願服從的事件而來。 沒有人接受神的話,而不立刻加以測驗的。我們不服從,反而希奇我們為甚麼沒有走上靈性的道兒。耶穌說:「所以你在祭壇上獻禮物的時候,若想起弟兄向你懷怨,就把禮物留在壇前,先去同弟兄和好,然後來獻禮物。」(太五23)耶穌的教訓擊中我們實際的生活。我們不能像一個欺騙者站立在祂面前,一刻也不能。祂要訓練我們,訓練到精微的地步。神的靈要指出那自以為是的思想,祂使我們想到我們從未想到的事。 當耶穌藉著祂的道領你明白一件事的時候,切不要規避它。如果規避,你就變成一個宗教的假冒者。留心你丟在腦後的事,你以為沒法的事,你便知道你為甚麼不能走上靈性的道兒。馬上去做,不要顧慮別人的批評,(批評你是狂信者),只服從神所指示的就得了。

七月廿七日 「直等到我們……長大成人,滿有基督長成的身量」以弗所書四章13節 神時時都在造就一些英雄,當時候成熟時,祂能在瞬間將那些人都派上用場,使世人驚訝這些人是從那裡來的。因此我們要讓聖靈在多方面準備我們,當最後修飾完工之後,神就能輕鬆地把我們放在世人眼前,且擺在最適當的位置。 就像士師記中三章俄陀聶被神興起為拯救者一樣(請參閱三章7—11)。有一天,在千禧年時,我們也會與基督一同審判,並且統治萬國萬邦。但是在那榮耀的日子來到之前,我們得讓神在基列西弗如預備俄陀聶一樣地訓練我們(士一11—13),使我們能戰勝生活中的試煉,以及許多我們作夢也想不到,但是意義卻重大的事情。有一件事我們可以確定,當聖靈預備好俄陀聶時,天地間的主給了他一個王座。願我們也能得到神的寶座。 神要因祂的恩典用我嗎? 用我來幫助祂的國降臨嗎? 神要我繼承一個位置嗎? 甚至讓我坐在我王的寶座上嗎?
