1:1 烏斯地有一個人名叫約伯;那人完全正直,敬畏 神,遠離惡事。 In the land of Uz there lived a man whose name was Job. This man was blameless and upright; he feared God and shunned evil.
1:2 他生了七個兒子,三個女兒。 He had seven sons and three daughters, 1:3 他的家產有七千羊,三千駱駝,五百對牛,五百母驢,並有許多僕婢。這人在東方人中就為至大。 and he owned seven thousand sheep, three thousand camels, five hundred yoke of oxen and five hundred donkeys, and had a large number of servants. He was the greatest man among all the people of the East. 1:4 他的兒子按著日子各在自己家裏設擺筵宴,就打發人去,請了他們的三個姊妹來,與他們一同吃喝。 His sons used to take turns holding feasts in their homes, and they would invite their three sisters to eat and drink with them. 1:5 筵宴的日子過了,約伯打發人去叫他們自潔。他清早起來,按著他們眾人的數目獻燔祭;因為他說:「恐怕我兒子犯了罪,心中棄掉 神。」約伯常常這樣行。 When a period of feasting had run its course, Job would send and have them purified. Early in the morning he would sacrifice a burnt offering for each of them, thinking, <<Perhaps my children have sinned and cursed God in their hearts.>> This was Job's regular custom. 1:6 有一天, 神的眾子來侍立在耶和華面前,撒但也來在其中。 One day the angels 1:6 Hebrew ((the sons of God)) came to present themselves before the LORD, and Satan 1:6 ((Satan)) means ((accuser.)) also came with them. 1:7 耶和華問撒但說:「你從哪裏來?」撒但回答說:「我從地上走來走去,往返而來。」 The LORD said to Satan, <<Where have you come from?>> Satan answered the LORD, <<From roaming through the earth and going back and forth in it.>> 1:8 耶和華問撒但說:「你曾用心察看我的僕人約伯沒有?地上再沒有人像他完全正直,敬畏 神,遠離惡事。」 Then the LORD said to Satan, <<Have you considered my servant Job? There is no one on earth like him; he is blameless and upright, a man who fears God and shuns evil.>> 1:9 撒但回答耶和華說:「約伯敬畏 神,豈是無故呢? <<Does Job fear God for nothing?>> Satan replied. 1:10 他的妻子對他說:「你仍然持守你的純正嗎?你棄掉 神,死了吧!」 <<Have you not put a hedge around him and his household and everything he has? You have blessed the work of his hands, so that his flocks and herds are spread throughout the land. 1:11 你豈不是四面圈上籬笆圍護他和他的家,並他一切所有的嗎?他手所做的都蒙你賜福;他的家產也在地上增多。 But stretch out your hand and strike everything he has, and he will surely curse you to your face.>> 1:12 你且伸手毀他一切所有的;他必當面棄掉你。」 The LORD said to Satan, <<Very well, then, everything he has is in your hands, but on the man himself do not lay a finger.>> Then Satan went out from the presence of the LORD. 1:13 耶和華對撒但說:「凡他所有的都在你手中;只是不可伸手加害於他。」於是撒但從耶和華面前退去。 One day when Job's sons and daughters were feasting and drinking wine at the oldest brother's house, 1:14 有一天,約伯的兒女正在他們長兄的家裏吃飯喝酒, a messenger came to Job and said, <<The oxen were plowing and the donkeys were grazing nearby, 1:15 有報信的來見約伯,說:「牛正耕地,驢在旁邊吃草, and the Sabeans attacked and carried them off. They put the servants to the sword, and I am the only one who has escaped to tell you!>> 1:16 示巴人忽然闖來,把牲畜擄去,並用刀殺了僕人;惟有我一人逃脫,來報信給你。」 While he was still speaking, another messenger came and said, <<The fire of God fell from the sky and burned up the sheep and the servants, and I am the only one who has escaped to tell you!>> 1:17 他還說話的時候,又有人來說:「 神從天上降下火來,將群羊和僕人都燒滅了;惟有我一人逃脫,來報信給你。」 While he was still speaking, another messenger came and said, <<The Chaldeans formed three raiding parties and swept down on your camels and carried them off. They put the servants to the sword, and I am the only one who has escaped to tell you!>> 1:18 他還說話的時候,又有人來說:「迦勒底人分作三隊忽然闖來,把駱駝擄去,並用刀殺了僕人;惟有我一人逃脫,來報信給你。」 While he was still speaking, yet another messenger came and said, <<Your sons and daughters were feasting and drinking wine at the oldest brother's house, 1:19 他還說話的時候,又有人來說:「你的兒女正在他們長兄的家裏吃飯喝酒, when suddenly a mighty wind swept in from the desert and struck the four corners of the house. It collapsed on them and they are dead, and I am the only one who has escaped to tell you!>> 1:20 不料,有狂風從曠野颳來,擊打房屋的四角,房屋倒塌在少年人身上,他們就都死了;惟有我一人逃脫,來報信給你。」 At this, Job got up and tore his robe and shaved his head. Then he fell to the ground in worship 1:21 約伯便起來,撕裂外袍,剃了頭,伏在地上下拜, and said: <<Naked I came from my mother's womb, and naked I will depart. 1:21 Or ((will return there)) The LORD gave and the LORD has taken away; may the name of the LORD be praised.>> 1:22 說:「我赤身出於母胎,也必赤身歸回;賞賜的是耶和華,收取的也是耶和華。耶和華的名是應當稱頌的。」 In all this, Job did not sin by charging God with wrongdoing. 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(08月22日)
八月廿二日 「其餘的人,可以用板子,或船上的零碎東西上岸。這樣,眾人都得了救上了岸。」使徒行傳廿七章44節 保羅上羅馬去的那奇異的經歷—─所受的試煉和所得的榮耀─—真是信徒走信心道路的一個好模型。其中最寶貴的教訓乃是:在我們所到的一切困難狹窄的地方,都有神特殊的辦法和預備的。 按照人們普通的眼光看來,信心的道路,一定是滿撒著鮮花的;甚麼時候神要拯救祂的子民脫離危險,神就會立刻將他們從困難中提出來。事實卻正相反。聖經上的故事告訴我們:每一個見證人——從亞伯起,一直到最近殉道者——都是先受試煉,後得榮耀的。 保羅的經歷告訴我們:一個神的孩子,無論受多少苦,仍能不在靈裏受壓。保羅因為在大馬色宣傳耶穌的緣故,猶太人商議要殺他,我們看見那時候天上並沒有在火焰雷電中降下戰車戰馬來把這位大使徒從仇敵的勢力範圍中護送出去,他是 「用筐子……從城牆上縋下去。」(九25)的。你看,被裝在一隻舊的衣筐裏面!像一包送出去洗濯的衣服一般!耶穌基督的僕人竟這樣坍臺地從窗戶口縋下去! 後來我們又看見他被下在監裏;我們看見他怎樣被親友遺棄,怎樣受殘酷可恥的鞭打;就是在神允許拯救他以後,我們還看見他被留在波濤洶湧的海中顛簸;最後,拯救來了,可是天上並沒有大船飛下來把這位尊貴的囚犯接出去;也沒有天使在水面上平靜猖獗的怒濤;船上的人,必須有的抓住桅桿,有的抓住木板,有的攀住破船的碎片,有的跳下水去游泳,纔能得救上岸。這就是神對待我們的方法。 這是神給我們安排的生活方式,對於那些生活在實際環境中的人們,這是個有助的福音,神的應許與神的旨意,並不立刻將我們從試煉中提出來,但是因這些試煉完成了我們的信心,於是神纔喜歡用祂那愛的金線,交織在我們日常經驗的經緯之中,使之獲得美麗與光榮。 ─譯自信心之路的困境

August 22 "And the rest, some on boards, some on broken pieces of the ship. And so it came to pass that they escaped all safe to land." (Acts 27:44.) THE marvelous story of Paul's voyage to Rome, with its trials and triumphs, is a fine pattern of the lights and shades of the way of faith all through the story of human life. The remarkable feature of it is the hard and narrow places which we find intermingled with God's most extraordinary interpositioons and providences. It is the common idea that the pathway of faith is strewm with flowers, and that when God interposes in the life of His people, He does it on a scale so grand that He lifts us quite out of the plane of difficulties. The actual fact, however, is that the real experience is quite contrary. The story of the Bible is one of alternate trial triumph in the case of everyone of the cloud of witnesses from Abel down to the latest martyr. Paul, more than anyone else, was an example of how much a child of God can suffer without being crushed or broken in spirit. On account of his testifying in Damascus, he was hunted dowm by persecutors and obliged to fly for his life, but we behold no heavenly chariot transporting the holy aposte amid thunderbolts of flame from the reach of his foes, but "through a window in a basket," was he let down over the walls of Damascus and so escaped their hands. In an old clothes basket, like a bundle of laundry, or groceries, the servant of Jesus Christ was dropped from the window and ignominiously fled from the hate of his foes. Again we find him left for months in the lonely dungeons; we find him telling of his watchings, his fastings, and his desertion by friends, of his brutal and shameful beatings, and here even after God has promised to deliver him, we see him for days left to toss upon a stormy sea, obliged to stand guard over the treacherous seaman, and at last when the deliverance comes, there is no heavenly galley sailing from the skies to take off the noble prisoner; there is no angel form walking along the waters and stilling the raging breakers; there is no supernatural sign of the transcendent miracle that is being wrought; but one is compelled to seize a spar, another a floating plank, another to climb on a fragment of the wreck, another to strike out and swim for his life. Here is God's pattern for our own lives. Here is a Gospel of help for people that have to live in this every day world with real and ordinary surroundings, and a thousand practical conditions which have to be met in a thoroughly practical way. God's promises and God's providences do not lift us out of the plane of common sense and commonplace trial, but it is through these very things that faith is perfected, and that God loves to interweave the golden threads of His love along the warp and woof of our every day experience. ─Hard Places in the Way of Faith.

八月廿二日 在諸事上有節制 「凡較力爭勝的,諸事都有節制。」「我是攻克己身,叫身服我。」哥林多前書九章25、27節 保羅在此提醒我們知道一個原則:如要在公眾比賽的場合得勝,必須要在「諸事上都有節制」。每件事,即使有多大的誘惑力,只要有妨害,就得放棄或擱置,這樣才可贏得世界上的獎品,何況擁有一切的基督要賜給我們不朽壞的冠冕——,為此,我們豈不更要全心盡力跟隨主耶穌。 保羅說:「我是攻克己身,叫身服我。」他不准許任何事來妨害自己,他告訴我們:「我只有一件事:向著標竿直跑,要得獎賞。」不以滿足自己的食慾來吃喝,不求安逸的生活,乃在日常生活中表現出背十字架的記號,像主一樣凡事犧牲。我們從下列經文可看出他一生所有的:(林前五11-13),和(林後四8-12,六4-10,十一23-27)。十字架不僅是他宣道的主題,也是他生命的特質。 我們必須向神祈求,使這種性情能在基督徒身上找著,使我們藉著聖靈的大能而能傳揚福音。當基督死的大能在傳道人身上運行時,基督的生命才能為會眾所察覺。讓我們祈求能在老舊的地方與十字架交通,使神的兒女都能順服:「但願你們能以基督的心為心。」祂自己卑微,存心順服以至於死在十字架上,而「我們若在祂死的形式上與祂聯合,也要在祂復活的形狀上與祂聯合。」(羅六5)

八月廿二日 「我是……但祂」 「我是用水給你們施洗……但那……祂要用聖靈與火給你們施洗。」馬太福音三章11節 我的經驗到了能說這樣話──「我是……但祂」──的地步麼?不到那時,絕不知道聖靈的洗是甚麼意思。「我是」就完結了,我不能做甚麼;「但祂」,從這裡開始──祂能做人所不能的事。我歡迎基督來麼?只要有甚麼攔阻著,無論是善是惡,祂就不來。當祂來的時候,我準備將我所做的件件錯事暴露出來麼?祂只肯在那種情況之下來。我在甚麼地方知道我的不潔,祂就從那個地方來;反過來說,我在甚麼地方想到我是潔淨的,祂從甚麼地方退出去。 悔改不是帶進罪的感覺,而是使人感覺自己的不配和無用。當我悔改的時候,我確覺我自己絕對的無用,就是提鞋之微也是不配的。我曾像那樣悔改過麼?或有一點覺到自己的力量夠了呢?神不能進入我生命的緣故,是因為我沒有完全悔改。 「祂要用聖靈與火給你們施洗」。約翰未說聖靈的洗是一種經驗。卻說是耶穌基督所完成的一種工作,「祂要給你們施洗」。凡受聖靈洗禮的人,所僅有而清白的經驗,是絕對不配,絕對無用的感覺。 「我是」這也是那不要緊的;「但祂」來,則奇妙的事件必然發生。不要依靠自己,應該走到事事依靠祂的地步。

八月廿二日 「誰行作成就這事,從起初宣召歷代呢?就是我——耶和華!我是首先的,也與末後的同在。」以賽亞書四十一章4節 有成千上萬的基督徒,在他們開始聖潔之旅以後,因為單靠經驗而不靠使其成聖的主,竟然不到一半就完全停頓下來。由於這些人認為他們已經徹底、永遠地從罪中得到釋放,故沈迷於起初的經驗,想像他們永遠不會像過去那樣受試探,或是受引誘。 無怪乎當這些人在走進真正的基督徒生活中時,會失敗和跌倒。由於他們很驚訝、困惑,所以他們遽下結論,認為他們的經驗一定有什麼錯誤。通常,這些人會繼續嘗試,但會再次跌倒,直到最後被自己的經驗弄得精疲力竭,甚至斷言成為聖潔的經驗是一個妄想,或者不適合他們。這些人難免又會回到老我的生活方式中,而他們最後的光景比起初更加地悲慘。 今天,我們每個人都需要明白,成聖並非是一種境界,乃是擁有基督——復活的主在我們的裡面。 主耶穌,懇求您賜給我們您的心腸、您的信心、您的生命,以及您自己。
