1:1 起初，神創造天地。 In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth.
1:2 地是空虛混沌，淵面黑暗；神的靈運行在水面上。 Now the earth was 1:2 Or possibly ((became)) formless and empty, darkness was over the surface of the deep, and the Spirit of God was hovering over the waters. 1:3 神說：要有光，就有了光。 And God said, <<Let there be light,>> and there was light. 1:4 神看光是好的，就把光暗分開了。 God saw that the light was good, and he separated the light from the darkness. 1:5 神稱光為晝，稱暗為夜。有晚上，有早晨，這是頭一日。 God called the light <<day,>> and the darkness he called <<night.>> And there was evening, and there was morning--the first day. 1:6 神說：諸水之間要有空氣，將水分為上下。 And God said, <<Let there be an expanse between the waters to separate water from water.>> 1:7 神就造出空氣，將空氣以下的水、空氣以上的水分開了。事就這樣成了。 So God made the expanse and separated the water under the expanse from the water above it. And it was so. 1:8 神稱空氣為天。有晚上，有早晨，是第二日。 God called the expanse <<sky.>> And there was evening, and there was morning--the second day. 1:9 神說：天下的水要聚在一處，使旱地露出來。事就這樣成了。 And God said, <<Let the water under the sky be gathered to one place, and let dry ground appear.>> And it was so. 1:10 神稱旱地為地，稱水的聚處為海。神看著是好的。 God called the dry ground <<land,>> and the gathered waters he called <<seas.>> And God saw that it was good. 1:11 神說：地要發生青草和結種子的菜蔬，並結果子的樹木，各從其類，果子都包著核。事就這樣成了。 Then God said, <<Let the land produce vegetation: seed-bearing plants and trees on the land that bear fruit with seed in it, according to their various kinds.>> And it was so. 1:12 於是地發生了青草和結種子的菜蔬，各從其類；並結果子的樹木，各從其類；果子都包著核。神看著是好的。 The land produced vegetation: plants bearing seed according to their kinds and trees bearing fruit with seed in it according to their kinds. And God saw that it was good. 1:13 有晚上，有早晨，是第三日。 And there was evening, and there was morning--the third day. 1:14 神說：天上要有光體，可以分晝夜，作記號，定節令、日子、年歲， And God said, <<Let there be lights in the expanse of the sky to separate the day from the night, and let them serve as signs to mark seasons and days and years, 1:15 並要發光在天空，普照在地上。事就這樣成了。 and let them be lights in the expanse of the sky to give light on the earth.>> And it was so. 1:16 於是神造了兩個大光，大的管晝，小的管夜，又造眾星， God made two great lights--the greater light to govern the day and the lesser light to govern the night. He also made the stars. 1:17 就把這些光擺列在天空，普照在地上， God set them in the expanse of the sky to give light on the earth, 1:18 管理晝夜，分別明暗。神看著是好的。 to govern the day and the night, and to separate light from darkness. And God saw that it was good. 1:19 有晚上，有早晨，是第四日。 And there was evening, and there was morning--the fourth day. 1:20 神說：水要多多滋生有生命的物；要有雀鳥飛在地面以上，天空之中。 And God said, <<Let the water teem with living creatures, and let birds fly above the earth across the expanse of the sky.>> 1:21 神就造出大魚和水中所滋生各樣有生命的動物，各從其類；又造出各樣飛鳥，各從其類。神看著是好的。 So God created the great creatures of the sea and every living and moving thing with which the water teems, according to their kinds, and every winged bird according to its kind. And God saw that it was good. 1:22 神就賜福給這一切，說：滋生繁多，充滿海中的水；雀鳥也要多生在地上。 God blessed them and said, <<Be fruitful and increase in number and fill the water in the seas, and let the birds increase on the earth.>> 1:23 有晚上，有早晨，是第五日。 And there was evening, and there was morning--the fifth day. 1:24 神說：地要生出活物來，各從其類；牲畜、昆蟲、野獸，各從其類。事就這樣成了。 And God said, <<Let the land produce living creatures according to their kinds: livestock, creatures that move along the ground, and wild animals, each according to its kind.>> And it was so. 1:25 於是神造出野獸，各從其類；牲畜，各從其類；地上一切昆蟲，各從其類。神看著是好的。 God made the wild animals according to their kinds, the livestock according to their kinds, and all the creatures that move along the ground according to their kinds. And God saw that it was good. 1:26 神說：我們要照著我們的形像、按著我們的樣式造人，使他們管理海裏的魚、空中的鳥、地上的牲畜，和全地，地上所爬的一切昆蟲。 Then God said, <<Let us make man in our image, in our likeness, and let them rule over the fish of the sea and the birds of the air, over the livestock, over all the earth, 1:26 Hebrew; Syriac ((all the wild animals)) and over all the creatures that move along the ground.>> 1:27 神就照著自己的形像造人，乃是照著他的形像造男造女。 So God created man in his own image, in the image of God he created him; male and female he created them. 1:28 神就賜福給他們，又對他們說：要生養眾多，遍滿地面，治理這地，也要管理海裏的魚、空中的鳥，和地上各樣動的活物。 God blessed them and said to them, <<Be fruitful and increase in number; fill the earth and subdue it. Rule over the fish of the sea and the birds of the air and over every living creature that moves on the ground.>> 1:29 神說：看那，我將遍地上一切結種子的菜蔬和一切樹上所結有核的果子全賜給你們作食物。 Then God said, <<I give you every seed-bearing plant on the face of the whole earth and every tree that has fruit with seed in it. They will be yours for food. 1:30 至於地上的走獸和空中的飛鳥，並各樣爬在地上有生命的物，我將青草賜給他們作食物。事就這樣成了。 And to all the beasts of the earth and all the birds of the air and all the creatures that move on the ground--everything that has the breath of life in it--I give every green plant for food.>> And it was so. 1:31 神看著一切所造的都甚好。有晚上，有早晨，是第六日。 God saw all that he had made, and it was very good. And there was evening, and there was morning--the sixth day.

三月六日 「我們曾信……」路加福音廿四章21節（直譯） 我常常覺得很是難過：往以馬忤斯去的兩個門徒不對耶穌說：「我們仍信」；卻說：「我們曾信……。」可憐，他們以為事情都完了。 他們若說：「似乎每一件事情都使我們失望；似乎我們的信心落了空，但是我們並不灰心；我們相信我們要再見祂……」豈不好麼？可惜他們並沒有這麼說，他們站在祂旁邊，臉上帶著愁容，以為主已死了三天；難怪主責備他們說：「無知的人哪……你們的心，信得太遲鈍了！」（25節） 親愛的，我們有否相似的情形，受主同樣的責備？我們寧可放棄任何東西，每一件東西，卻不能放棄對主的信心。 讓我們不像這兩個門徒一樣，把我們的信心變成過去式——「我們曾信…。」讓我們永遠堅持現在式的信心—─「我們永信。」 ─碎錦 溫暖的春天已去， 那枝頭開滿如錦鮮花。 玫瑰怒放的季節， 我曾盼望， 現在仍在盼望祂…… 如今玫瑰不開， 花事闌珊， 若畏縮躊躇， 我的信心何顢頇； 尤其風雪欲來的此刻， 若灰心失望， 更是脆弱可歎。 ─風雪中小鳥之歌

March 6 "We trusted." (Luke 24:21.) ＩHAVE always felt so sorry that in that walk to Emmaus the disciples had not said to Jesus, "We still trust"; instead of "We trusted." That is so sad─something that is all over. If they had only said, "Everything is against our hope; it looks as if our trust was vain, but we do not give up; we believe we shall see Him again." But no, they walked by His side declaring their lost faith, and He had to say to them "O fools, and slow of heart to believe!" Are we not in the same danger of having these words said to us? We can afford to lose anything and everything if we do not lose our faith in the God of truth and love. Let us never put our faith, as these disciples did, in a past tense─"We trusted." But let us ever say, "I am trusting." ─Crumbs. The soft, sweet summer was warm and glowing, Bright were the blossoms on every bough: I trusted Him when the roses were blooming; I trust Him now.... Small were my faith should it weakly falter Now that the roses have ceased to blow; Frail were the trust that now should alter, Doubting His love when storm clouds grow. ─The Song of a Bird in a Winter Storm.

三月六日 基督為代禱者 「凡靠著祂進到神面前的人，祂都能拯救到底；因為祂是長遠活著，替他們祈求。」 當神在以賽亞書裡說過祂找不到一個代禱者，就甚詫異；接著又說：「祂用自己的膀臂施行拯救。必有一位救贖主來到錫安。」（賽五九16、20）神親自預備一位真正的代求者，祂曾論到祂的兒子基督：「……祂卻擔當多人的罪，又為罪犯代求。」（賽五三12） 基督在世上的生活中，已經開始祂代禱的職事。試想主為著祂的門徒及一切信祂名的人那個大祭司的禱告。再想想祂對彼得所說的話：「我已為你禱告，使你不致失去信心。」——這就證明祂的代禱是非常個人的。在十字架上，祂代禱著：「父啊，赦免他們」。 神如今已坐在神的右邊，祂仍為大祭司，繼續不斷地作代禱的工作。所不同者，祂將這個權利賜給祂的門徒，使他們也有份於祂的事工。在祂臨別談話中，七次的保證他們無論向祂求甚麼，祂都為他們成全。 天上的權能已賜給了人。神的恩典與權能等著人向祂祈求。藉著聖靈的引導，人能知道神的旨意。他們學習在信心中奉祂名祈求。祂要將他們的祈求帶到神面前，藉著祂和門徒們同心的代禱，使教會披戴聖靈的權能。 禱告： 可稱頌的救贖主啊：您呼召我們有份於您的代禱，乃是何等奇妙的恩典。我們喚醒您蒙救贖的兒女，使我們得知我們所蒙的呼召是何其榮耀，並得知您的救會在軟弱中，仍能因奉您的名代求而將天上極豐盛的祝福帶下。求您的聖靈在人裡面作工，使您的子民深深懊悔我們限制了禱告，以及懶惰、不信、自私的罪，深信您的愛使您的渴望賜下禱告的靈，以答應我們的祈求——奉您的名。阿們。

三月六日 一大堆無謂的事 「就如在許多的忍耐、患難、窮乏、困苦……」哥林多後書六章4節 於無異象，無監護者的時候，要對付當前的順從，當前的研究，當前的瀏覽，當前的烹調；非訴之於全能的恩惠不可。你欲完成當前的本分，沒有從神來的異象，沒有勉勵，沒有監護者更是不行。傳福音固然重要，而此時此刻蒙神的恩惠，而與神親近，更為重要。 每個基督徒應具有基督化身成人的本質，要把事物帶到血肉的實際，要胼手胝足地行出來。我們沒有見異象，沒有得援助，即在平常的小事上也會停駐不前的。為神為人作一勞永逸之計，是在隱秘裡工作，要想保全生命，唯一的方法，是瞻仰神。求神打開你的靈眼，定睛仰望升天的基督，苦役絕不能挫折你。常常拋開心裡的瑣事，要達到約翰福音第十三章的程度！

三月六日 「……不可依靠自己的聰明。」箴言三章5節 我們若依靠人的智慧，無論是自己的或是他人的，那麼信心就會受到阻礙。撒但給夏娃的第一個魚餌，就是提供她智慧；為了得著智慧，夏娃把信心賣了。創世記三章5節說：「……你們喫的日子眼睛就亮了，你們便如神能知道善惡。」從那以後，夏娃開始用她的智慧，不再依靠神。 使以色列民族無法如期進入神所應許之地的，乃是那些探子，因為他們在窺探迦南之後，做了一個很嚇人的報告，所以以色列民族變得沒有信心，更使得那一代所有的以色列人都無法進入迦南地。那些探子的名字幾乎都像徵人類的智慧、偉大和名聲，這是很有意義的。 基督在世的時候，猶太人一方面受到祖宗傳統的捆綁，一方面受到議論的影響，使他們不願接受主耶穌。主曾問猶太人：「你們互相受榮耀，卻不求從獨一之神來的榮耀，怎能信我呢？」(約五44) 讓我們專心仰賴耶和華，不可倚靠自己的聰明。
