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(10月11日)
十月十一日 「似乎要死,卻是活著。」哥林多後書六章9節 有一年夏天,我在鄉間園子裏修了一個長方形的花圃,種著紫菀花,花開茂盛。但它們下種時很晚,當枝頂結子的時候,兩側還在萌出鮮花。初霜降臨後,我發現那些艷麗的花朵枯萎了,我嘆道:「唉,它們受不住這裏的氣候,都完了」。我向它們告別。 我不願再去看那花圃,它的樣子落到好像一個花的墳場。但到了翌年春天,有一位園丁請我注意那塊花圃,已長滿了極其茂盛的紫菀;我去一看只見那我認為在去年冬季枯萎而死的每一株紫菀,卻已經繁殖了五十株新苗。去冬的冰霜和寒風,完成了繁殖紫菀的任務,我問自己!是破壞呢,是建設呢! 當那去年冬季的寒風將紫菀橫施摧折,吹擲滿地,用沾雪的腳任意踐踏,並且說:「這是你們的末日」。到了第二年的春天,每一枝殘花的所在卻長出了根來,說道:「我們因死得生」。 在植物界如此,在天國也是如此。從死亡裏茁出了不朽的生命。永生真神的寶座和宮殿,得自十字架和墳墓。勝利得自失敗。 不要怕受苦,不要怕失敗。 凡是偉人常被打倒而未被消滅,先被折磨得片片粉碎,然後才能變成偉人,才能力敵千軍;而那些只顧眼前的人,隨俗浮沈,必然曇花一現,在短暫的興旺之後,隨即消逝,而永劫不復。 ─皮邱 生命要以損失, 而非收穫來估計, 不問你之所得, 而問你的所施多少。 因愛的力量, 建立在犧牲之中, 受苦最多的人, 施給纔會周到。

October 11 "As dying and behold we live." (2 Cor. 6:9.) THAD a bed of asters last summer, that reached clear a cross my garden in the country. Oh, how gaily they bloomed. They were planted late. On the sides were yet fresh blossoming flowers, while the tops had gone to seed. Early frosts came, and I found one day that that long line of radiant beauty was seared, and I said, "Ah! the season is too much for them; they have perished"; and I bade them farewell. I disliked to go and look at the bed, it looked so like a graveyard of flowers. But, four or five weeks ago one of my men called my attention to the fact that along the whole line of that bed there were asters coming up in the greatest abundance; and I looked, and behold, for every plant that I thought the winter had destroyed there were fity plants that I thought the winter had destroyed there were fifty plants that it had planted. What did those frosts and surly winds do? They caught my nowers, they slew them, they cast them to the ground, they trod with snowy feet upon them, and they said, leaving their work, "This is the end of you." And the next spring there were for every root, fifty witnesses to rise up and say, "By death we live." And as it is in the floral tribe, so it is in God's kingdom. By death came everlasting life. By crucifixion and the sepulchre came the throne and the palace of the Eternal God. By overthrow came victory. Do not be afraid to suffer. Do not be afraid to be overthrown. It is by being cast down and not destroyed; it is by being shaken to pieces, and the pieces torn to shreds, that men become men of might, and that one a host; whereas men that yield to the appearance of things, and go with the world, have their quick blossoming, their monentary prosperity and then their end, which is an end forever. -Beecher. "Measure thy life by loss and not by gain, Not by the wine drunk, but by the wine poured forth. For love's strength standeth in love's sacrifice, And he who suffers most has most to give."

十月十一日 從上頭新生而有的愛 我要給你們一個這世界最光明主題的呼召,這可幫助你。我喜樂的敬拜都有無限的愛,無始無終;有海洋般廣大、溫柔、甜蜜、榮耀、福份、良善、忍耐和恩慈的神,所有這些能震憾地獄廣大的愛,也就是聖父、聖子、聖靈三而一的神無限的慈愛和良善。除非有福、喜樂的愛和光在墮落的天使和人前後,否則他們毫無力量。 請抓住這個可靠有福的真理:除非你的靈魂有從上頭來的新生,否則你乏善可陳;若要自然的正義就得有新生的體驗,也就是藉著愛的靈,運行在生命中而有的結果。愛是光明燦爛榮耀的,否則不能在受造之物中得以昇華;在此過程中亦須具有喜樂。神之所以必須道成肉身,就是因非藉此不能使恢復本性;而靠人自己的力量無法達到這種光榮的境界,這完全是藉愛的靈所運行而成。 現在,你也看出絕對需要十字架福音的真理。換言之,老我若不死,就不能向神活著;十字架的捨己是使人良善的唯一途徑,十字架就是否認天然個性,得以經驗神賜超自然良善的唯一方法。除非愛的靈吹入每個人的心中,在那兒運行,否則只有天然的努力和美德,並非出自神的良善和本性。若不是藉神親自活在你裏面,並在其中運行,因而產生愛的靈,我們是無法信仰這真理,並敬拜真神。 讓我們為這奇妙的愛深深地謙卑、敬拜神,祈求祂幫助我們使我完全捨己,降服在祂面前。

十月十一日 在神延宕沉默以後──怎樣呢? 「聽見拉撒路病了,就在所居之地,仍住了兩天。」約翰福音十一章6節 神曾經以一種延宕──一種具有深意的延宕──對你麼?神的延宕,就是祂的答覆。想想在伯大尼家庭中延宕沉默的那些日子啊!在你的生命中,有沒有與那相似的日子呢?神像那樣對你,你是否仍求一種聽得見的答覆呢?如果沒有神的祝福,你不能前進的時候,神就照你所求的允你;但是祂的延宕,是一種標記,就是要你深深地瞭解祂。你在神面前哀哭,是因為你沒有得到聽見祂的反應麼?你會覺得神要用最可能最親密的方法,給你一種延宕的沉默,必不叫你失望,卻是叫你快樂,因為祂知道你受得住一種較大的啟示。如果神以延宕沉默對你,就當稱讚祂,因為祂要使你暢行祂的旨意。倘使神不延宕,即時答覆,那是神的主權。時間對於神是無關的,起初你以為「我求神賜我麵包,祂反賜我石頭。」祂不是這樣,現在你覺得祂賜你的是生命之糧。 最奇的是神。能將祂的安靜,傳到你的裡面,叫你完全信任祂──「我知道神已聽允了我。」祂的延宕沉默是祂已經聽允了你的證據。你祈禱的目的在神的祝福麼?祂也願意賜福給你,但是祂不能賜你在延宕中所得的恩惠。如果耶穌基督叫你瞭解祈禱是榮耀祂的父,──祂首先給你的親密是延宕沉默。

十月十一日 「鑒察人心的,曉得聖靈的意思,因為聖靈照著神的旨意替聖徒祈求。」羅馬書八章27節 聖靈會在聖徒的心中,成為代求的靈。事實上,我們有兩個代言人,一個是坐在天父右邊為我們代求的耶穌,另一個則是在我們裡面的靈,祂能啟示我們靠耶穌的名,向神禱告。 我們需要神的靈,儘管我們不知道該為何事禱告,也不知當怎樣祈求,但是聖靈會把負擔加給我們,用說不出來的歎息,甚至在我們不全然瞭解每件事時,替我們禱告。 神瞭解我們,並且總是以天父慈愛的心來鑒察我們、教導我們明白聖靈的意思,然後回答我們的禱告。祂在我們還不知應當如何開口祈求時,就曉得我們的需求;在我們還不明白許多情況的當兒,信實地回應我們的呼求。當我們回到天家、手捧著生命的記載時,我們會瞭解,並感謝神無限的愛。因為祂使聖靈照著祂的旨意替我們祈求,又讓聖靈根據我們的每一個需要向祂禱告。
