1:1 當三十年四月初五日,以西結〔原文是我〕在迦巴魯河邊被擄的人中,天就開了,得見 神的異象。 In the 1:1 Or (((my))) thirtieth year, in the fourth month on the fifth day, while I was among the exiles by the Kebar River, the heavens were opened and I saw visions of God.
1:2 正是約雅斤王被擄去第五年四月初五日, On the fifth of the month--it was the fifth year of the exile of King Jehoiachin-- 1:3 在迦勒底人之地、迦巴魯河邊,耶和華的話特特臨到布西的兒子祭司以西結;耶和華的靈〔原文是手〕降在他身上。 the word of the LORD came to Ezekiel the priest, the son of Buzi, 1:3 Or ((Ezekiel son of Buzi the priest)) by the Kebar River in the land of the Babylonians. 1:3 Or ((Chaldeans)) There the hand of the LORD was upon him. 1:4 我觀看,見狂風從北方颳來,隨著有一朵包括閃爍火的大雲,周圍有光輝;從其中的火內發出好像光耀的精金; I looked, and I saw a windstorm coming out of the north--an immense cloud with flashing lightning and surrounded by brilliant light. The center of the fire looked like glowing metal, 1:5 又從其中顯出四個活物的形像來。他們的形狀是這樣:有人的形像, and in the fire was what looked like four living creatures. In appearance their form was that of a man, 1:6 各有四個臉面,四個翅膀。 but each of them had four faces and four wings. 1:7 他們的腿是直的,腳掌好像牛犢之蹄,都燦爛如光明的銅。 Their legs were straight; their feet were like those of a calf and gleamed like burnished bronze. 1:8 在四面的翅膀以下有人的手。這四個活物的臉和翅膀乃是這樣: Under their wings on their four sides they had the hands of a man. All four of them had faces and wings, 1:9 翅膀彼此相接,行走並不轉身,俱各直往前行。 and their wings touched one another. Each one went straight ahead; they did not turn as they moved. 1:10 至於臉的形像:前面各有人的臉,右面各有獅子的臉,左面各有牛的臉,後面各有鷹的臉。 Their faces looked like this: Each of the four had the face of a man, and on the right side each had the face of a lion, and on the left the face of an ox; each also had the face of an eagle. 1:11 各展開上邊的兩個翅膀相接,各以下邊的兩個翅膀遮體。 Such were their faces. Their wings were spread out upward; each had two wings, one touching the wing of another creature on either side, and two wings covering its body. 1:12 他們俱各直往前行。靈往哪裏去,他們就往那裏去,行走並不轉身。 Each one went straight ahead. Wherever the spirit would go, they would go, without turning as they went. 1:13 至於四活物的形像,就如燒著火炭的形狀,又如火把的形狀。火在四活物中間上去下來,這火有光輝,從火中發出閃電。 The appearance of the living creatures was like burning coals of fire or like torches. Fire moved back and forth among the creatures; it was bright, and lightning flashed out of it. 1:14 這活物往來奔走,好像電光一閃。 The creatures sped back and forth like flashes of lightning. 1:15 我正觀看活物的時候,見活物的臉旁各有一輪在地上。 As I looked at the living creatures, I saw a wheel on the ground beside each creature with its four faces. 1:16 輪的形狀和顏色〔原文是作法〕好像水蒼玉。四輪都是一個樣式,形狀和作法好像輪中套輪。 This was the appearance and structure of the wheels: They sparkled like chrysolite, and all four looked alike. Each appeared to be made like a wheel intersecting a wheel. 1:17 輪行走的時候,向四方都能直行,並不掉轉。 As they moved, they would go in any one of the four directions the creatures faced; the wheels did not turn about 1:17 Or ((aside)) as the creatures went. 1:18 至於輪輞,高而可畏;四個輪輞周圍滿有眼睛。 Their rims were high and awesome, and all four rims were full of eyes all around. 1:19 活物行走,輪也在旁邊行走;活物從地上升,輪也都上升。 When the living creatures moved, the wheels beside them moved; and when the living creatures rose from the ground, the wheels also rose. 1:20 靈往哪裏去,活物就往那裏去;活物上升,輪也在活物旁邊上升,因為活物的靈在輪中。 Wherever the spirit would go, they would go, and the wheels would rise along with them, because the spirit of the living creatures was in the wheels. 1:21 那些行走,這些也行走;那些站住,這些也站住;那些從地上升,輪也在旁邊上升,因為活物的靈在輪中。 When the creatures moved, they also moved; when the creatures stood still, they also stood still; and when the creatures rose from the ground, the wheels rose along with them, because the spirit of the living creatures was in the wheels. 1:22 活物的頭以上有穹蒼的形像,看著像可畏的水晶,鋪張在活物的頭以上。 Spread out above the heads of the living creatures was what looked like an expanse, sparkling like ice, and awesome. 1:23 穹蒼以下,活物的翅膀直張,彼此相對;每活物有兩個翅膀遮體。 Under the expanse their wings were stretched out one toward the other, and each had two wings covering its body. 1:24 活物行走的時候,我聽見翅膀的響聲,像大水的聲音,像全能者的聲音,也像軍隊鬨嚷的聲音。活物站住的時候,便將翅膀垂下。 When the creatures moved, I heard the sound of their wings, like the roar of rushing waters, like the voice of the Almighty, 1:24 Hebrew ((Shaddai)) like the tumult of an army. When they stood still, they lowered their wings. 1:25 在他們頭以上的穹蒼之上有聲音。他們站住的時候,便將翅膀垂下。 Then there came a voice from above the expanse over their heads as they stood with lowered wings. 1:26 在他們頭以上的穹蒼之上有寶座的形像,彷彿藍寶石;在寶座形像以上有彷彿人的形狀。 Above the expanse over their heads was what looked like a throne of sapphire, 1:26 Or ((lapis lazuli)) and high above on the throne was a figure like that of a man. 1:27 我見從他腰以上有彷彿光耀的精金,周圍都有火的形狀,又見從他腰以下有彷彿火的形狀,周圍也有光輝。 I saw that from what appeared to be his waist up he looked like glowing metal, as if full of fire, and that from there down he looked like fire; and brilliant light surrounded him. 1:28 下雨的日子,雲中虹的形狀怎樣,周圍光輝的形狀也是怎樣。這就是耶和華榮耀的形像。我一看見就俯伏在地,又聽見一位說話的聲音。 Like the appearance of a rainbow in the clouds on a rainy day, so was the radiance around him. This was the appearance of the likeness of the glory of the LORD. When I saw it, I fell facedown, and I heard the voice of one speaking.

二月二日 「祂……將我藏在祂手蔭之下;又使我成為磨亮的箭,將我藏在祂箭袋之中。」以賽亞書四九章2節 「在祂手蔭之下」。我們常有到那裡去的需要。日光太炫耀了;我們的目光會受到損傷,使我們不能分辨相仿的顏色。所以神將我們暫時藏在疾病的蔭中、憂愁的蔭中、窮苦的蔭中,在那裡和日光隔絕。 但是不要怕這神的手蔭祂正在引導。你有許多功課只能彀在那邊學得的。 不要想神已經把你丟在一邊了。你仍舊在祂箭袋之中;祂並沒有把你當作無用之物拋去。 祂現在把你藏起,保守你直到相當的時候,祂要配你在弓弦上,送你出去,使仇敵受虧損,使神得榮耀。哦,在神手蔭之下的信徒啊,戰士如何寶貝他的箭,把牠藏在貼身的箭袋中,神也如此寶貝你愛護你,藏你在祂的蔭庇之下。 ─梅爾 許多時候,黑蔭倒是生長必需的條件。美麗的玉蜀黍在夏夜的蔭下生長得最快。在炎熱的日光下,牠的葉子是鬈著的,到了天上起黑雲的時候,葉子很快地開放了。也有許多美麗的花,日間藏起牠們的美麗來,晚蔭降時方纔開放。多雲多霧和多蔭的地帶,草木也蔥鬱茂盛。花圃裏不但有晨間怒放的花朵,也有「夜來香」,「夜來香」在日正當中時並無光彩,到深夜纔散佈它的芬芳。 假如一生儘是陽光, 我們將會盼望, 清涼的雨滴, 灑到我們臉上。 ─亨利范戴克

February 2 "In the shadow of his hand hath he hid me, and made me a polished shaft: in his quiver hath he hid me." (Isa. 49:2.) IN the shadow." We must all go there sometimes. The glare of the daylight is too brilliant; our eyes become injured, and unable to discern the delicate shades of color, or appreciate neutral tints─he shadowed chamber of sickness, the shadowed house of mourning, the shadowed life from which the sunlight has gone. But fear not! It is the shadow of God's hand. He is leading thee. There are lessons that can be learned only there. The photograph of His face can only be fixed in the dark chamber. But do not suppose that He has cast thee aside. Thou art still in His quiver; He has not flung thee away as a worthless thing. He is only keeping thee close till the moment comes when He can send thee most swiftly and surely on some errand in which He will be glorified. Oh, shadowed, shadowed, solitary ones, remember how closely the quiver is bound to the warrior, within easy reach of the hand, and guarded jealously. ─Christ in Isaiah, Meyer. In some spheres the shadow condition is the condition of greatest growth. The beautiful Indian corn never grows more rapidly than in the shadow of a warm summer night. The sun curls the leaves in the sultry noon light, but they quickly unfold, if a cloud slips over the sky. There is a service in the shadow that is not in the shine. The world of stellar beauty is never seen at its best till the shadows of night slip over the sky. There are beauties that bloom in the shade that will not bloom in the sun. There is much greenery in lands of fog and clouds and shadow. The florist has "evening glories" now, as well as "morning glories." The "evening glory" will not shine in the noon's splendor, but comes to its best as the shadows of evening deepen. If all of life were sunshine, Our faces would be fain To feel once more upon them The cooling plash of rain. ─Henry Van Dyke.

二月二日 神是個靈 「神是個靈,所以拜祂的,必須用心靈和誠實拜祂。」約翰福音四章24節 當神創造了人,又吹入一口生命氣息給人的時候,人就變成了一個活的魂。這一個魂是在靈和體的中間,他可以降服給靈被帶到神那裡,也可以降服給肉體和這肉體的情慾。在先祖墮落之後,人拒絕順服靈,成為身體的奴隸,在人裡面的靈,就變成完全黑暗的了。 當人重生的時候,人的靈又活過來,得著從上面來的生命。當人在重生的生命裡,和神有交通的時候,人的靈就降服於神的靈。靈就是人裡面最深的部份。詩篇五十一篇節「您所喜愛的,是內裡誠實,您在我隱密處,必使我得智慧。」耶利米書卅一章中也說:「我要將我的律法放在他們裡面。」以賽亞也說:「夜間我的心渴望您,我裡面的靈切切尋求您。」這一個心必須進到隱密處的靈的深處去,起來尋求神。 神是個靈,極其聖潔,極其榮耀。祂給我們一個靈,為的是要我們與祂相交,緊緊跟隨祂自己。但是這個能力因為罪就漸漸失去了。除了將我們的心在安靜裡獻上給神,讓祂的聖靈在我們裡面工作之外,就沒有別的恢復法子。神願意在我們裡面,我們的靈裡教導我們,用心靈和誠實來敬拜祂,祂的心是超過我們所能思想、所能感覺的。 「父要這樣的人拜祂。」如果我們等候祂,祂就要藉著聖靈來教導我們如何敬拜祂。在這安靜的時候,要肅敬靜默在神面前降服你自己,全心相信接受祂的靈溫柔的工作。對神說出這些話:「我的心哪,你當安靜在神面前。」「夜間我心中羨慕您,我裡面的靈切切尋求您。」「哦!神,我等候您。」

二月二日 呼召之勉勵 「若不傳福音,我便有禍了!」哥林多前書九章16節 當心你的耳朵未聽神的召呼,凡得救的,都是召去替這個事實作見證;並不是召去傳道,至多只能作一種傳道上可用的示範。保羅說他必須傳福音,不然便是痛苦。切不要將保羅所說的,是指人的心靈與神接觸而獲救贖的事件。再沒有甚麼比得救還容易些,因為那是神權限內的事──「到我這裡來,我要使你們得救。」我們的主未曾把做門徒的條件,同得救的條件等量齊觀。我們藉著耶穌基督的十字架準定得救,不成問題。至於做門徒則有所選擇──「若有人……」 保羅這話是論到那些將要作耶穌僕人的,既是作了僕人,就沒有理由去問主人做甚麼,或往那裡去。神要照自己的意思,把我們作成擘的餅和奠的酒為祂所用。「特派傳福音」一語,其意是聽聞神的召呼;當某人聽見那種召呼時,就必感覺隱痛。這種隱痛,真真是痛苦。各種野心要除盡,各種慾望要熄滅,各種前程要完全丟開,只有一事,就是「特派傳福音」。當那種召呼臨到某人的時候,他想轉向而逃,準是禍及其心。本校之成立,就是要看這裡有沒有願傳神福音的男女;就是要看神能否握住你。當神握住你的時候,就當留意其他的事把你從神手中奪去。

二月二日 「你們中間誰願為大,就必作你們的用人;誰願為首,就必作你們的僕人。」馬太福音廿章26、27節 這裡所提到的用人,是指在任何情況下願服務他人的人。但是「僕人」這兩個字卻表示賣了身的奴隸。而耶穌在此地清楚教導我們,僕人的事奉才是最高層次的事奉。 基督成了所有世人的奴隸,任何願意來到祂面前,與祂親近、同在的人,都必須學習這種事奉的精神──完全捨棄自我的權利,永遠不再為自我爭取什麼。 對我們來說,完完全全地對主耶穌忠實,為主的緣故做奴僕,並願意順服在主裡掌權的人,是極為可能的事。 奴僕的精神不僅是捨棄自我,且是樂意降服在有權柄者之下。雖然對事情沒興趣,但為了主的榮耀,為了弟兄的益處,心甘情願毫不保留地放棄個人的喜好及興趣。 主啊!願您為我們穿上謙卑的衣裳,使我們全然屬您。

隨機小語智慧是什麼?
有一隻老虎,看見曾打敗過自己的水牛,被人吆喝著耕地,便去問牛為什麼怕農夫,牛說:「因為人有智慧」。 老虎向農夫要求看看他的智慧。農夫說他把智慧放在家裡,可以去拿,但要先把老虎捆起來,免得他走了以後老虎把牛吃掉,老虎聽了覺得有道理,老虎聽從農夫的話。 農夫回村叫了村民來,把老虎裝鐵籠裡,農夫就對老虎說:「這就是智慧」。 國英台羅馬注音聖經新增台語羅馬字典教會MIDI卡拉OK新增教會MIDI卡拉OK流量最多的歌教會MIDI卡拉OK新修改會員登入 |
