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(11月07日)
十一月七日 「只是我先前以為與我有益的,我現在因基督都當作有損的。」腓立比書三章7節 盲目傳道人喬治‧馬得勝(George Matheson)去世安葬的時候,人們以紅玫瑰遍佈他墳地四周,以紀念這捨己為人的熱情牧師。他深得大眾的敬愛,下面這首詩是他的作品: 你的愛, 不捨我走開, 我疲倦的靈魂因你而得安息, 我把你所賜的生命還給你。 在你深海中, 讓源流更為豐溢。 你的光一路照耀著我, 我把搖曳的火把交給你, 心中重新亮起你賜的光, 在你的天空, 風光更顯旖旎。 你的歡欣透過痛苦來找我, 我無法對你關閉心扉, 我透過雨絲去追尋彩虹, 感知諾言非虛, 明日必是良辰。 你的十字架舉起我的頭, 我不敢要求逃避離棄, 我把已逝的光榮埋於塵土, 鮮紅的花朵冒出無盡的生氣。 傳說有位藝術家,會調製一種不同凡俗的紅色,為別的藝術家所不能模仿。他調製的秘密,一直保守到他逝世。死後人們發現他心口有個老傷痕,洩露了作畫時所用的那種顏色的來源。這個故事告訴我們,任何偉大的成就,任何崇高的造詣,任何對這世界有重大價值的貢獻,都要花費心血。

November 7 "But what things were gain to me, those I counted loss for Christ." (Phil. 3:7) WHEN they buried the blind preacher, George Matheson, they lined his grave with red roses in memory of his love-life of sacrifice. And it was this man, so beautifully and significantly honored, who wrote, "O Love that wilt not let me go, I rest my weary soul in Thee, I give Thee back the life I owe, That in thine ocean depths its flow May richer, fuller be. "O Light that followest all my way, I yield my flickering torch to Thee, My heart restores its borrowed ray, That in Thy sunshine's blaze its day May brighter, fairer be. "O Joy that seekest me through pain, I cannot close my heart to Thee, I trace the rainbow through the rain, And feel the promise is not vain, That morn shall tearless be. "O Cross that liftest up my head, I dare not ask to fly from Thee, I lay in dust life's glory dead, And from the ground there blossoms red, Life that shall endless be." There is a legend of an artist who had found the secret of a wonderful red which no other artist could imitate. The secret of his color died with him. But after his death an old wound was discovered over his heart. This revealed the source of the matchless hue in his pictures. The legend teaches that no great achievement can be made, no lofty attainment reached, nothing of much value to the world done, save at the cost of heart's blood.

十一月七日 順服 「你們若愛我,就必遵守我的命令。我要求父,父就另外賜給你們一位保惠師」。約翰福音十四章15、16節 我們所學習知道門徒自我操練接受聖靈,必須要繼續不斷「同心合意」祈求聖靈的能力。基督對他們而言是代表任何事物,在耶穌被釘十字架就已經如此,之後更是這樣;藉著復活,祂自己傾注在他們生命中,這是他們同一的思想,也是他們唯一的渴望。 難道這種獻身只是對少數追求者所要求,而不期望於全體門徒?或者只是那些渴望為聖靈充滿的人?然而神是期望於祂所有的兒女。主現在需要全體接受聖靈及其能力,在地上作成祂的工,為主的寶座降臨世界而代求。 基督對我們而言是指某些事物,或無任何可言,或每樣事物?對未悔改者而言,基督是王,代表任何事物;對半悔改者——即大多數基督徒——是指某些事物;對真正的基督徒而言,祂是指所有的事物就是基督是一切。每位祈求聖靈能力者必須說:「今天我盡心地將自己降服於聖靈的引導。」完全順服是生死的關鍵,是絕對必要的。 我親愛的弟兄姊妹們!你心中已寫著今天的經文:「你們若愛我,就必遵守我的命令。」每一天都活在順服之中,在耶穌裏遵守祂的命令,就是為門徒的標記。神的兒女要學習做每件事都要關心神的旨意,因父神的愛和靈都在其中,這要由門徒繼續不斷同心合意的禱告開始,這是我們為教會和世界有能力代求的訣要。

十一月七日 未看出環境的聖潔 「萬事都互相效力,叫愛神的人得益處。」羅馬八章28節 聖徒生活的環境,是神命定的。在聖徒的生活裡,沒有甚麼機遇的事。神用智慧領你們到全然不懂得的環境裡去,但是神是懂得的。神領你們到某地,到某人中,到某情形裡,叫聖靈在你裡面的代求,取從某特殊方向。你不要放手在環境的前面,說──「我在這裡有我自己的作為,我必要留心這守著那。」你一切的環境在神掌握中,因此不要以你所在的環境為奇怪。你在代求方面不是進入代求的痛苦,卻是利用神所安排的環境,利用祂替你所安排的民眾,引他們來到神的寶座前,使你裡面的靈得到替他們代求的機會。這樣神就藉著祂的聖徒感動世界。 我因未規定替聖靈做甚麼,或想替聖靈做甚麼,使聖靈的工作發生困難麼?我必盡力代求的人事方面,人事方面就是我所在的環境,和我所接觸的人民。我當保守我清白意識的生活,成為聖靈的殿,及至我引領各等各類的人到神面前的時候,聖靈就替他們代求。 你的代求絕不是我的代求,我的代求也不是你的代求,但是聖靈在我們各人裡面代求,沒有這種代求,就有人要失掉機會的。

十一月七日 「……我必堅固你,我必幫助你,我必……扶持你。」以賽亞書四十一章10節 神用三種幫助我們的方法。第一、祂說祂必堅固我們。換言之,祂會使我們更強壯。第二、祂必幫助我們。也就是說祂會加添我們力量,但是仍然讓我們自己動手。第三、祂說:「我必用我公義的右手扶持你。」這表示祂會支撐著我們的身體,把我們整個人抱起來,全然地托住我們。 當我們精疲力竭時,祂會以祂的力量堅固我們。在祂裡面,最軟弱的能變得最堅強;最無助的能變成最能幫助人的。「疲乏的,祂賜能力,軟弱的,祂加力量。」(賽四十29)祂的應許是:「……我的恩典夠你用的……。」(林後十二9) 雖然神的回答讓我們覺得極為矛盾,但卻是最實際的真理。無怪乎保羅會說:「……我更喜歡誇自己的軟弱,好叫基督的能力覆庇我……因我什麼時候軟弱,什麼時候就剛強了。」(林後十二9—10)
