1:1 耶和華的話臨到毗土珥的兒子約珥。 The word of the LORD that came to Joel son of Pethuel.
1:2 老年人哪,當聽我的話;國中的居民哪,都要側耳而聽。在你們的日子,或你們列祖的日子,曾有這樣的事嗎? Hear this, you elders; listen, all who live in the land. Has anything like this ever happened in your days or in the days of your forefathers? 1:3 你們要將這事傳與子,子傳與孫,孫傳與後代。 Tell it to your children, and let your children tell it to their children, and their children to the next generation. 1:4 剪蟲剩下的,蝗蟲來吃;蝗蟲剩下的,蝻子來吃;蝻子剩下的,螞蚱來吃。 What the locust swarm has left the great locusts have eaten; what the great locusts have left the young locusts have eaten; what the young locusts have left other locusts \f 1:4 The precise meaning of the four Hebrew words used here for locusts is uncertain.\F have eaten. 1:5 酒醉的人哪,要清醒哭泣;好酒的人哪,都要為甜酒哀號,因為從你們的口中斷絕了。 Wake up, you drunkards, and weep! Wail, all you drinkers of wine; wail because of the new wine, for it has been snatched from your lips. 1:6 有一隊蝗蟲〔原文是民〕又強盛又無數,侵犯我的地;牠的牙齒如獅子的牙齒,大牙如母獅的大牙。 A nation has invaded my land, powerful and without number; it has the teeth of a lion, the fangs of a lioness. 1:7 牠毀壞我的葡萄樹,剝了我無花果樹的皮,剝盡而丟棄,使枝條露白。 It has laid waste my vines and ruined my fig trees. It has stripped off their bark and thrown it away, leaving their branches white. 1:8 我的民哪,你當哀號,像處女腰束麻布,為幼年的丈夫哀號。 Mourn like a virgin \f 1:8 Or ((young woman))\F in sackcloth grieving for the husband \f 1:8 Or ((betrothed))\F of her youth. 1:9 素祭和奠祭從耶和華的殿中斷絕;事奉耶和華的祭司都悲哀。 Grain offerings and drink offerings are cut off from the house of the LORD. The priests are in mourning, those who minister before the LORD. 1:10 田荒涼,地悲哀;因為五穀毀壞,新酒乾竭,油也缺乏。 The fields are ruined, the ground is dried up; \f 1:10 Or ((ground mourns))\F the grain is destroyed, the new wine is dried up, the oil fails. 1:11 農夫啊,你們要慚愧;修理葡萄園的啊,你們要哀號;因為大麥小麥與田間的莊稼都滅絕了。 Despair, you farmers, wail, you vine growers; grieve for the wheat and the barley, because the harvest of the field is destroyed. 1:12 葡萄樹枯乾;無花果樹衰殘。石榴樹、棕樹、蘋果樹,連田野一切的樹木也都枯乾;眾人的喜樂盡都消滅。 The vine is dried up and the fig tree is withered; the pomegranate, the palm and the apple tree-- all the trees of the field--are dried up. Surely the joy of mankind is withered away. 1:13 祭司啊,你們當腰束麻布痛哭;伺候祭壇的啊,你們要哀號;事奉我 神的啊,你們要來披上麻布過夜,因為素祭和奠祭從你們 神的殿中斷絕了。 Put on sackcloth, O priests, and mourn; wail, you who minister before the altar. Come, spend the night in sackcloth, you who minister before my God; for the grain offerings and drink offerings are withheld from the house of your God. 1:14 你們要分定禁食的日子,宣告嚴肅會,招聚長老和國中的一切居民到耶和華─你們 神的殿,向耶和華哀求。 Declare a holy fast; call a sacred assembly. Summon the elders and all who live in the land to the house of the LORD your God, and cry out to the LORD. 1:15 哀哉!耶和華的日子臨近了。這日來到,好像毀滅從全能者來到。 Alas for that day! For the day of the LORD is near; it will come like destruction from the Almighty. \f 1:15 Hebrew ((Shaddai))\F 1:16 糧食不是在我們眼前斷絕了嗎?歡喜快樂不是從我們 神的殿中止息了嗎? Has not the food been cut off before our very eyes-- joy and gladness from the house of our God? 1:17 穀種在土塊下朽爛;倉也荒涼,廩也破壞;因為五穀枯乾了。 The seeds are shriveled beneath the clods. \f 1:17 The meaning of the Hebrew for this word is uncertain.\F The storehouses are in ruins, the granaries have been broken down, for the grain has dried up. 1:18 牲畜哀鳴;牛群混亂,因為無草;羊群也受了困苦。 How the cattle moan! The herds mill about because they have no pasture; even the flocks of sheep are suffering. 1:19 耶和華啊,我向你求告,因為火燒滅曠野的草場;火焰燒盡田野的樹木。 To you, O LORD, I call, for fire has devoured the open pastures and flames have burned up all the trees of the field. 1:20 田野的走獸向你發喘;因為溪水乾涸,火也燒滅曠野的草場。 Even the wild animals pant for you; the streams of water have dried up and fire has devoured the open pastures.

三月廿九日 「你想野地裏的百合花,怎麼長起來。」馬太福音六章28節 古時有一個修道士,種了一棵橄欖樹。他禱告說:「神啊,它需要水分,好叫它柔嫩的根得吸收而長髮。求您降下滋潤的甘霖來。」神就降雨下來。他又禱告說:「神啊,我的樹需要日光,我求您給它日光」。於是雲散雨止,神就給它日光。他再禱告說:「神啊,現在它需要霜來堅固它的組織。」看哪,那株幼小植物上果然罩上了一層薄霜。但是到了傍晚,樹卻死了。 於是他就去見另一個修道士,告訴他自己奇異的經歷。那修道士回答說:「我也種了一棵小樹。看哪!現在長得多麼茂盛。我沒有為我的樹操一點心,只把它交給它的神。造它的神知道它的需要遠勝過像我這樣無知的人。所以我並不向神提出條件、建議、方法。我禱告說:「神啊,您把它所需要的給它,無論是風、是雨、是霜、是雪、是日光、是甚麼……您既造它,您一定知道它,也一定會供給它。」 ─選 是的,像百合花那樣, 一切讓神去安排, 它們自然生長成材, 在雨露陰晴之中, 照常發育, 葉茂花盛, 無庸你顧慮喋喋。 是的,一切讓神去安排, 祂愛你, 為你的設想周到, 更甚於百合花落花開; 在禱告中表示了願望, 一切讓神去安排, 靠祂為你栽培。

March 29 "Consider the lilies, how they grow."(Matt. 6:28.) "I NEED oil," said an ancient monk; so he planted an olive sapling. "Lord," he prayed, "it needs rain that its tender roots may drink and swell. Send gentle showers." And the lord sent gentle showers. "Lord," prayed the monk, "my tree needs sun. Send sun, I pray Thee. "And the sun shone, gilding the dripping clouds. "Now frost, my Lord, to brace its tissues," cried the monk. And behold, the little tree stood sparkling with frost, but at evening it died. Then the monk sought the cell of a brother monk, and told his strange experience. "I, too, planted a little tree," he said, "and see! it thrives well. But I entrust my tree to its God. He who made it knows better what it needs than a man like me. I laid no condition. I fixed not ways or means.`Lord, send what it needs,'I prayed, `storm or sunshine, wind, rain, or frost. Thou hast made it and Thou dost know.'" ─Selected Yes, leave it with Him, The lilies ad do, And they grow─ They grow in the rain, And they grow in the dew─ Yes, they grow: They grow in the darkness, all hid in the night─ They grow in the sunshine, revealed by the light─ Still they grow. Yes, leave it with Him, 'Tis more dear to His heart, You will know, Than the lilies that bloom, Or the flowers that start `Neath the snow: Whatever you need, if you seek it in prayer, You can leave it with Him─for you are His care. You, you know. ─Selected.

三月廿九日 大祭司及祂的代禱 「我們有這樣的大祭司,凡靠著祂進到神面前的人,祂都能拯救到底,因為祂長遠活著替他們祈求。」希伯來書七章25節,八章1節 在以色列人中,大祭司與祭司及利未人之間有很大差別。只有大祭司可以進入至聖所。在他的前額繫著一塊金牌,上面刻著:「歸耶和華為聖」,且贖罪日在神面前為百姓的罪代禱。祭司則天天獻祭,侍立在神面前,並出來給百姓祝福。大祭司與祭司大不相同,但他們乃是合一的;祭司有分於大祭司的權柄侍立在神前,將所承受神的祝福分賜給神的百姓。 我們的大祭司主耶穌也是如此,惟有祂可在神面前不住地為我們的需要代禱。雖然主耶穌為大祭司,與祂四周服事祂的君尊祭司職分不相同,但祂百姓在祂裡面的交通與合一,也是無窮盡的。藉著聖徒迫切的祈求,主耶穌一直在父面前為我們持守,並將父所賜的祝福分賜於那些在地上為祂作見證及代表祂的人。 若神的兒女僅以得救為滿足,並且過著一種蒙恩的生活,他們就永不能領會,他們蒙召作代禱之能力的奧秘。 然而,一旦他們認清了得救的意義乃是得著一個與基督合一的、活的生命,真實的有分於一個住在我們裡面並一直作工的生命,使我們將全人獻上為主生活和工作、思想和意願,並且以過著君尊祭司的生活為最喜樂,這樣教會就大有能力,且證實了因著與神與人的交通,使基督的權能顯在教會中,而教會也能像祂。 禱告: 求神開啟我們的心,使我們知道也證實我們君尊祭司的職分是甚麼——我們的生活,以及奉主耶穌的名禱告的真實意義是甚麼,我們所求於祂的無不成就!我們的大祭司主耶穌,求您將您自己聖潔祭司的靈吹入我們的心。阿們。

三月廿九日 我們的主忽然來到 「我們也要預備。」路加福音十二章40節 基督的工人至要緊的,是時時面向耶穌基督。無論我們的經驗怎樣,不是容易的事情,實在是一種掙扎。可是這種掙扎不是與罪孽,困難或環境奮鬥;卻是不要讓環境或工作支配了我們,以致沒有面向耶穌基督的準備。最緊要的不是對付我們的信心,我們的信條,和我們有無用處的問題,卻是面向著祂。 耶穌難於在我們所期望的地方來到;祂在我們不甚期望祂的地方顯現,也常在我們想不到的地方顯現。一個工人要保守其對於神的忠貞,唯一的方法,是準備著主的忽然來到。不是服務要緊,卻要激起靈性上的真情,時時盼望耶穌基督。這樣方能使我們有一種孩童的心情,就是祂要我們所保有的心情。如果我們準備耶穌基督來到,我們就得拋開宗教之外形(以宗教為一種高尚的文化的宗教)攫取靈性之真實。 如果你仰望耶穌,擺脫你現代宗教的呼召,留心祂所需要的,想祂所想的,也許你將被人稱為不切實際的幻想者;但是當祂在負重與炎熱之日來到,你就算是唯一有準備的人。不要依賴別人,即使來過這世界最好的聖徒,如果他阻止你看不見耶穌基督;也不可理睬他。

三月廿九日 「祂必保護聖民的腳步……」撒母耳記上二章9節 危險和特權都常出現在成熟的基督徒生活中。當我們越靠近神,往往我們會遇到更多空中的惡魔。但我們若順服神的話語,專一事奉祂並且儆守自潔,就能安全無恙。 當基督徒說,他們能處在一個不必儆醒的環境中時,他們往往要面臨極大的危險。所以,讓我們帶著聖潔的信心,竭力謙卑儆醒,好叫神保守我們的腳步。 猶大書24、25節說:「那能保守你們不失腳,叫你們無瑕無疵,歡歡喜喜站在祂榮耀之前的我們的救主——獨一的神,願榮耀、威嚴、能力、權柄,因我們的主耶穌基督歸與祂,從萬古以前並現今,直到永永遠遠。阿們!」 當我們找尋幫助我們儆醒的口號時, 我們經常不知所措; 但是,神已經給了我們一個答案, 祂要我們問:若是耶穌會怎麼作做? 當極大的誘惑如箭一般地, 帶著火向我們射過來時, 問耶穌會怎麼做, 將是我們屬天的軍裝。
