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.

二月十二日 「你們的天父是知道的。」馬太福音六章32節 有一位訪客,一次去參觀一個聾啞學校。他看見那些聾啞學生正在聖經班上頂虔誠地讀神的話語。他就在他們的黑板上寫了一個問題請他們答覆:「神既然愛你們,為甚麼使你們聾啞,反倒使我能聽能說呢?」 全班學生都因這一個苛刻的問題受打擊。他們大家坐著相對唏噓,向著那可怕的「為甚麼」發呆。過了一回,一個頂小的女孩子站了起來。 她的嘴唇還在顫動,她的目眶中飽滿了眼淚。她走到前面,爬在椅子上(因為黑板高,她的身體矮小),拿起粉筆,用堅定的手筆寫上這幾個寶貝的字:「父阿,是的,因您的美意本是如此。」(太十一26)這是何等切實的一個答覆呢!這是一個永久的真理,無論大人、無論小孩,都可以安息在其中的——天地之主是我們的父。 讀者,你信不信神是你的父呢?如果你真信,那麼你信心的鴿子不會再遊蕩無依,找不著落腳之地了,因為可以永遠穩定在安息所——你們的父那裏了! 我一直相信,總有一天不管它離開現在還有多久,我們會明白一切;到了那一天,如今使我們覺得遮蔽天空的許多黑暗悲傷,都將消散,由那新的圖案來代替黑暗,那新的圖案設計得如何莊嚴華麗和喜悅,我們將在此奇妙的喜樂中了。           ─培根 並非機運給我帶來的不幸; 這是神的賜予, 所以只有聽命, 因為祂看見我所見不到的情境。 任何痛苦都有它們的原因, 有一天祂將會給你說明, 地上的損失, 換來了天上的歡欣。 像氈毯織滿了花, 從背面去看, 只是線亂如麻。 但正面卻是一幅美畫, 表現了作者的絕妙才華, 絲絲入扣的匠心, 有了代價。 主啊, 您是藝匠, 我是作品, 為了榮耀您的名, 以您的形像來塑我的型。           ─選

February 12  "Your heavenly Father knoweth." (Matt. 6:32.)  A VISITOR at a school for the deaf and dumb was writing questions on the blackboard for the children. By and by he wrote this sentence: "Why has God made me to hear and speak, and made you deaf and dumb?"  The awful sentence fell upon the little ones like a fierce blow in the face. They sat palsied before that dreadful "Why?" And then a little girl arose.  Her lip was trembling. Her eyes were swimming with tears. Straight to the board she walked, and, picking up the crayon, wrote with firm hand these precious words: "Even so, Father, for so it seemed good in thy sight!" What a reply! It reaches up and lays hold of an eternal truth upon which the maturest believer as well as the youngest child of God may alike securely rest─the truth that God is your Father.  Do you mean that? Do you really and fully believe that? When you do, then your dove of faith will no longer wander in weary unrest, but will settle down forever in its eternal resting place of peace. "Your Father!"  I can still believe that a day comes for all of us, however far off it may be, when we shall understand; when these tragedies, that now blacken and darken the very air of heaven for us, will sink into their places in a scheme so august, so magnificent, so joyful, that we shall laugh for wonder and delight.            ─Arthur Christopher Bacon. No chance hath brought this ill to me; 'Tis God's own hand, so let it be, He seeth what I cannot see. There is a need-be for each pain, And He one day will make it plain That earthly loss is heavenly gain. Like as a piece of tapestry Viewed from the back appears to be Naught but threads tangled hopelessly; But in the front a picture fair Rewards the worker for his care, Proving his skill and patience rare. Thou art the Workman, I the frame. Lord, for the glory of Thy Name, Perfect Thine image on the same.           ─Selected.
■ 永活之泉(02月12日)
二月十二日 子神 「願恩惠平安,從我們的父神,並主耶穌基督,歸與你們。」羅馬書一章7節 這是很特別的一件事,使徒保羅在他十三封書信裡,都寫著「願恩惠平安,從我們的父神,並主耶穌,歸與你們。」他有一個很深的感覺,就是父和子在恩典的工作上,是那麼合一、不能分開的。所以,在每一個開頭的祝福上,他總是提到父又提到子。 這對於我們,是一個很重要的功課。在基督徒生活中,我們可以常想到父神,並向祂禱告。但是慢慢的,我們就要看見,如果不瞭解下面所說的真理,必定有屬靈的損失;這個真理就是每天每時只有藉著信,在基督裡與祂有活的聯合,我們才能享受神的完全,以及同在的交通。 請我們想一想,關乎在寶座中的羔羊,神的話是怎樣說的呢?約翰曾看見一位坐在寶座上。「四活物……晝夜不住地說:聖哉!聖哉!聖哉!主神是昔在、今在、以後永在的全能者。」(啟四8) 後來,在啟示錄五章六節他看見「寶座……之中有羔羊站立,像是被殺過的」在所有敬拜的群眾中,除了他第一個看見基督,就是神的羔羊之外,再沒有能看見神的;所以沒有人只看見基督,而不見神的榮耀的。(神的榮耀就是父和子不能分開的一)。 哦!基督徒啊,如果你已準備好認識、敬拜神,只能在基督裡尋求並敬拜祂。如果你要尋找基督,只能在神裡面尋求祂、敬拜祂。這樣,你就能明白甚麼是「你的生命與基督一同藏在神裡面」,你也能經歷與基督相交而敬拜基督,在充足地認識神的愛和聖潔上不可少的。 魂哪,當安靜!在最深的敬虔裡說:「恩惠和平安——我所要求的一切——是從神我們的父,和主耶穌基督而來。」 讓我們來默想並且相信,盼望一切都是從坐在寶座上的父神和寶座中的羔羊,主耶穌基督而來。這樣你就要真的學習敬拜神,常回到這聖潔的情形裡「將榮耀歸給坐寶座的和羔羊。」(啟五13)

二月十二日 我必得靜聽麼? 「眾百姓對摩西說:求你和我們說話,我們必聽;不要神和我們說話,恐怕我們死亡。」出埃及記廿章19節 我們不是有意違背神,只是未曾注意祂。神所給與我們的誡命;也未給與相當的注意;我們並不曾惡意的悖逆祂,卻是未愛祂,未尊敬祂。「你們若愛我,就必謹守我的誡命。」當我們察覺我們時時輕慢神的時候,我們就滿覺羞辱和慚愧,因為我們沒有注意祂。 「求你和我們說話……不要神和我們說話。」我們寧願聽祂的僕人說話,這就表示我們愛神的心是微小的。我們喜歡聽私人的見證,卻不願神自己對我們說話。我們為甚麼怕到不願神向我們說話呢?因為我們知道如果神說話,我們一定要依從的,不然我們便得向神說不願依從。如果是僕人的聲音,我們聽見了,我們覺得那不是命令,我們還可以這樣對他說:「這不過是你自己的觀念,但也不敢一定說不是神的意思。」 神待我如同聽話的兒女,而我老是不理會祂,這是不是將祂置於屈辱的地位呢?當我聽見祂的時候,我就想到我所給與祂的屈辱──主啊!我為甚麼這樣愚鈍、這樣固執呢?當我們聽見神之時,總有這樣的結果。聽見祂的真快樂,因著聽覺之遲鈍,把快樂減低了。

二月十二日 「你們要先求祂的國,和祂的義,這些東西都要加給你們了。」馬太福音六章33節 對任何渴望從主那裡得到什麼的人,這個經節是很好的警言。因為我們強烈追求物質的慾望,很可能使我們不知不覺地離開主,或者使我們不再對祂專一。儘管我們想要的可能是件好東西,但是我們可能有不信及自私的態度。讓我們學習把所需的交託主,相信祂的信實;但同時,讓我們照著祂的旨意,為祂的榮耀而堅守我們的目的。 即使我們提到神所應許的祝福時,我們也應該為祂的緣故,而不是為自己的利益述說祂的豐富。若是我們能夠作到這個地步,那麼詩篇卅七篇4節:「又要以耶和華為樂,祂就將你心裡所求的賜給你。」就會應驗了。換言之,我們得先得著神,祂才會把其他的都加給我們。祂不先把物質的東西給我們,乃因為祂要我們對得著的那些東西有信心,並且為祂的榮耀,而不是為我們的私慾強求祂的應許。惟有當我們完全屬於基督之後,一切的東西才都成為我們的。 主啊!求您今天幫助我先求您的國,並且更願意討您的喜悅。讓我求您的旨意成就,遠勝過擁有任何其他的祝福。

西方哲學家嚇伯特說:「一個人如果二十歲而不美麗、三十歲而不建壯、四十歲而不富有、五十歲而不聰明,就永遠失去這些」。黃哲輝牧師說:「當一個人可以有機會抓住而不抓住機會,他就會永遠失去機會」。
