1:1 太初有道，道與 神同在，道就是 神。 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.
1:2 這道太初與 神同在。 He was with God in the beginning. 1:3 萬物是藉著他造的；凡被造的，沒有一樣不是藉著他造的。 Through him all things were made; without him nothing was made that has been made. 1:4 生命在他裏頭，這生命就是人的光。 In him was life, and that life was the light of men. 1:5 光照在黑暗裏，黑暗卻不接受光。 The light shines in the darkness, but the darkness has not understood(\f1 1:5 Or darkness, and the darkness has not overcome) it. 1:6 有一個人，是從 神那裏差來的，名叫約翰。 There came a man who was sent from God; his name was John. 1:7 這人來，為要作見證，就是為光作見證，叫眾人因他可以信。 He came as a witness to testify concerning that light, so that through him all men might believe. 1:8 他不是那光，乃是要為光作見證。 He himself was not the light; he came only as a witness to the light. 1:9 那光是真光，照亮一切生在世上的人。 The true light that gives light to every man was coming into the world.( \f2 1:9 Or This was the true light that gives light to every man who comes into the world) 1:10 他在世界，世界也是藉著他造的，世界卻不認識他。 He was in the world, and though the world was made through him, the world did not recognize him. 1:11 他到自己的地方來，自己的人倒不接待他。 He came to that which was his own, but his own did not receive him. 1:12 凡接待他的，就是信他名的人，他就賜他們權柄，作 神的兒女。 Yet to all who received him, to those who believed in his name, he gave the right to become children of God-- 1:13 這等人不是從血氣生的，不是從情慾生的，也不是從人意生的，乃是從 神生的。 children born not of natural descent,( \f3 1:13 Greek of bloods) nor of human decision or a husband's will, but born of God. 1:14 道成了肉身，住在我們中間，充充滿滿地有恩典有真理。我們也見過他的榮光，正是父獨生子的榮光。 The Word became flesh and made his dwelling among us. We have seen his glory, the glory of the One and Only,( \f4 1:14 Or the Only Begotten) who came from the Father, full of grace and truth. 1:15 約翰為他作見證，喊著說：「這就是我曾說：『那在我以後來的，反成了在我以前的，因他本來在我以前。』」 John testifies concerning him. He cries out, saying, <<This was he of whom I said, <He who comes after me has surpassed me because he was before me.> >> 1:16 從他豐滿的恩典裏，我們都領受了，而且恩上加恩。 From the fullness of his grace we have all received one blessing after another. 1:17 律法本是藉著摩西傳的；恩典和真理都是由耶穌基督來的。 For the law was given through Moses; grace and truth came through Jesus Christ. 1:18 從來沒有人看見 神，只有在父懷裏的獨生子將他表明出來。 No one has ever seen God, but God the One and Only,( \f5 1:18 Or the Only Begotten|d),( \f6 1:18 Some manuscripts but the only (or| only begotten) Son) who is at the Father's side, has made him known. 1:19 約翰所作的見證記在下面：猶太人從耶路撒冷差祭司和利未人到約翰那裏，問他說：「你是誰？」 Now this was John's testimony when the Jews of Jerusalem sent priests and Levites to ask him who he was. 1:20 他就明說，並不隱瞞，明說：「我不是基督。」 He did not fail to confess, but confessed freely, <<I am not the Christ.( \f7 1:20 Or Messiah. <<The Christ>> (Greek) and <<the Messiah>>(Hebrew) both mean <<the Anointed One>>; also in verse 25.)>> 1:21 他們又問他說：「這樣，你是誰呢？是以利亞嗎？」他說：「我不是。」「是那先知嗎？」他回答說：「不是。」 They asked him, <<Then who are you? Are you Elijah?>> He said, <<I am not.>> <<Are you the Prophet?>> He answered, <<No.>> 1:22 於是他們說：「你到底是誰，叫我們好回覆差我們來的人。你自己說，你是誰？」 Finally they said, <<Who are you? Give us an answer to take back to those who sent us. What do you say about yourself?>> 1:23 他說：「我就是那在曠野有人聲喊著說：『修直主的道路』，正如先知以賽亞所說的。」 John replied in the words of Isaiah the prophet, <<I am the voice of one calling in the desert, <Make straight the way for the Lord.> >>(\f8 1:23 Isaiah 40:3) 1:24 那些人是法利賽人差來的〔或譯：那差來的是法利賽人〕； Now some Pharisees who had been sent 1:25 他們就問他說：「你既不是基督，不是以利亞，也不是那先知，為甚麼施洗呢？」 questioned him, <<Why then do you baptize if you are not the Christ, nor Elijah, nor the Prophet?>> 1:26 約翰回答說：「我是用水施洗，但有一位站在你們中間，是你們不認識的， <<I baptize with(\f9 1:26 Or in; also in verses 31 and 33 \f9 1:26 Or in also in verses 31 and 33) water,>> John replied, <<but among you stands one you do not know. 1:27 就是那在我以後來的，我給他解鞋帶也不配。」 He is the one who comes after me, the thongs of whose sandals I am not worthy to untie.>> 1:28 這是在約旦河外伯大尼〔有古卷：伯大巴喇〕，約翰施洗的地方作的見證。 This all happened at Bethany on the other side of the Jordan, where John was baptizing. 1:29 次日，約翰看見耶穌來到他那裏，就說：「看哪， 神的羔羊，除去〔或譯：背負〕世人罪孽的！ The next day John saw Jesus coming toward him and said, <<Look, the Lamb of God, who takes away the sin of the world! 1:30 這就是我曾說：『有一位在我以後來、反成了在我以前的，因他本來在我以前。』 This is the one I meant when I said, <A man who comes after me has surpassed me because he was before me.> 1:31 我先前不認識他，如今我來用水施洗，為要叫他顯明給以色列人。」 I myself did not know him, but the reason I came baptizing with water was that he might be revealed to Israel.>> 1:32 約翰又作見證說：「我曾看見聖靈，彷彿鴿子從天降下，住在他的身上。 Then John gave this testimony: <<I saw the Spirit come down from heaven as a dove and remain on him. 1:33 我先前不認識他，只是那差我來用水施洗的、對我說：『你看見聖靈降下來，住在誰的身上，誰就是用聖靈施洗的。』 I would not have known him, except that the one who sent me to baptize with water told me, <The man on whom you see the Spirit come down and remain is he who will baptize with the Holy Spirit.> 1:34 我看見了，就證明這是 神的兒子。」 I have seen and I testify that this is the Son of God.>> 1:35 再次日，約翰同兩個門徒站在那裏。 The next day John was there again with two of his disciples. 1:36 他見耶穌行走，就說：「看哪！這是 神的羔羊！」 When he saw Jesus passing by, he said, <<Look, the Lamb of God!>> 1:37 兩個門徒聽見他的話，就跟從了耶穌。 When the two disciples heard him say this, they followed Jesus. 1:38 耶穌轉過身來，看見他們跟著，就問他們說：「你們要甚麼？」他們說：「拉比，在哪裏住？」（拉比翻出來就是夫子。） Turning around, Jesus saw them following and asked, <<What do you want?>> They said, <<Rabbi>> (which means Teacher), <<where are you staying?>> 1:39 耶穌說：「你們來看。」他們就去看他在哪裏住，這一天便與他同住；那時約有申正了。 <<Come,>> he replied, <<and you will see.>> So they went and saw where he was staying, and spent that day with him. It was about the tenth hour. 1:40 聽見約翰的話跟從耶穌的那兩個人，一個是西門‧彼得的兄弟安得烈。 Andrew, Simon Peter's brother, was one of the two who heard what John had said and who had followed Jesus. 1:41 他先找著自己的哥哥西門，對他說：「我們遇見彌賽亞了。」（彌賽亞翻出來就是基督。） The first thing Andrew did was to find his brother Simon and tell him, <<We have found the Messiah>> (that is, the Christ). 1:42 於是領他去見耶穌。耶穌看著他，說：「你是約翰的兒子西門〔約翰在馬太十六章十七節稱約拿〕，你要稱為磯法。」（磯法翻出來就是彼得。） And he brought him to Jesus. Jesus looked at him and said, <<You are Simon son of John. You will be called Cephas>> (which, when translated, is Peter(\f10 1:42 Both Cephas (Aramaic) and Peter (Greek) mean rock)). 1:43 又次日，耶穌想要往加利利去，遇見腓力，就對他說：「來跟從我吧。」 The next day Jesus decided to leave for Galilee. Finding Philip, he said to him, <<Follow me.>> 1:44 這腓力是伯賽大人，和安得烈、彼得同城。 Philip, like Andrew and Peter, was from the town of Bethsaida. 1:45 腓力找著拿但業，對他說：「摩西在律法上所寫的和眾先知所記的那一位，我們遇見了，就是約瑟的兒子拿撒勒人耶穌。」 Philip found Nathanael and told him, <<We have found the one Moses wrote about in the Law, and about whom the prophets also wrote--Jesus of Nazareth, the son of Joseph.>> 1:46 拿但業對他說：「拿撒勒還能出甚麼好的嗎？」腓力說：「你來看！」 <<Nazareth! Can anything good come from there?>> Nathanael asked. <<Come and see,>> said Philip. 1:47 耶穌看見拿但業來，就指著他說：「看哪，這是個真以色列人，他心裏是沒有詭詐的。」 When Jesus saw Nathanael approaching, he said of him, <<Here is a true Israelite, in whom there is nothing false.>> 1:48 拿但業對耶穌說：「你從哪裏知道我呢？」耶穌回答說：「腓力還沒有招呼你，你在無花果樹底下，我就看見你了。」 <<How do you know me?>> Nathanael asked. Jesus answered, <<I saw you while you were still under the fig tree before Philip called you.>> 1:49 拿但業說：「拉比，你是 神的兒子，你是以色列的王！」 Then Nathanael declared, <<Rabbi, you are the Son of God; you are the King of Israel.>> 1:50 耶穌對他說：「因為我說『在無花果樹底下看見你』，你就信嗎？你將要看見比這更大的事」； Jesus said, <<You believe(\f11 1:50 Or Do you believe ... ?) because I told you I saw you under the fig tree. You shall see greater things than that.>> 1:51 又說：「我實實在在地告訴你們，你們將要看見天開了， 神的使者上去下來在人子身上。」 He then added, <<I tell you(\f12 1:51 The Greek is plural.) the truth, you(\f13 1:51 The Greek is plural.) shall see heaven open, and the angels of God ascending and descending on the Son of Man.>> This is Alex Markley's PHPScripture v1.2.0, displaying a copy of Chinese Union Version Bible in XOOPS. 本模組中文化由長島基督福音教會的Jack起始, 聖經文字部分由CCIM(網路基督使團)網站下載. 如欲修改經文請洽聖經公會. 荒漠甘泉五合一■ 中文荒漠甘泉（03月02日）
三月二日 「明日早晨，你要預備好了，上……山，在山頂上站在我面前，誰也不可和你一同上去。」出埃及記卅四章2—3節 在基督人的生命中，晨更是非常重要的。每天早晨我們必須先見神的面，然後再見人和世界。 如果一天的開始是憑我們自己的力量，我們就不能盼望得勝。在每天開始工作之前，必須在讀經中，禱告中，或靜默中，先和神有交通。切勿先見別人，甚至自己的家人，直等到我們先接見了我們生命中至大至尊的貴客耶穌基督。 單獨去見祂。天天按時去見祂。帶著聖經去見祂；把我們一天中要作的事都帶到祂面前去，我們就會得到意想不到的力量和指示。 一天開始， 先與神見面， 祂是你的光明， 你的太陽！ 祂是破除黑暗的曙光； 獻上你的祈禱， 讓祂度量。 清晨起來唱一首新歌； 與山林一同喜悅相和唱， 與清新空氣， 海洋和原野， 與那明媚的花朵一同歌唱。 將你第一首歌獻給王， 不是唱給凡人去聽聞， 不是唱給任何被造物， 只是唱給獨一榮耀之真神。 先和神去作一次同行， 好讓神在你前面引導， 在河邊， 在海灘， 在山徑， 全由神來作你的護行。 在天上的父， 作你今天第一位主顧； 你的事業必然興旺， 整天都在神的慈愛中。 ─龐納 許多為神作大事業的信徒，都是一早就跪在神面前的。 亨利馬太（Henry Matthew）每天早晨四點鐘就在他的書房裏讀經、禱告了；到八點鐘出來用早餐。早餐後，舉行家庭晨禱；完畢後，又到密室中去和神親近，直到午時午餐後，他又回到書房裏去讀屬靈的書籍，或寫作，直到四點鐘；其餘的時間，去探望朋友。 ─選

March 2 "Be ready in the morning, and come up...present thyself there to me in the top of the mount. And no man shall come up with thee." (Exod. 34:2, 3.) ＴHE morning watch is essential. You must not face the day until you have faced God, nor look into the face of others until you have looked into His. You cannot expect to be victorious, if the day begins only in your own strength. Face the work of every day with the influence of a few thoughtful, quiet moments with your heart and God. Do not meet other people, even those of your own home, until you have first met the great Guest and honored Companion of your life─Jesus Christ. Meet Him alone. Meet Him regularly. Meet Him with His open Book of counsel before you; and face the regular and the irregular duties of each day with the influence of His personality definitely controlling your every act. Begin the day with God! He is thy Sun and Day! His is the radiance of thy dawn; To Him address thy lay. Sing a new song at morn! Join the glad woods and hills; Join the fresh winds and seas and plains, Join the bright flowers and rills. Sing thy first song to God! Not to thy fellow men; Not to the creatures of His hand, But to the glorious One. Take thy first walk with God! Let Him go forth with thee; By stream, or sea, or mountain path, Seek still His company. Thy first transaction be With God Himself above; So shall thy business prosper well And all the day be love. ─Horatius Bonar. The men who have done the most for God in this world have been early upon their knees. Matthew Henry used to be in his study at four, and remain there till eight; then, after breakfast and family prayer, he used to be there again till noon; after dinner, he resumed his book or pen till four, and spent the rest of the day in visiting his friends.

三月二日 眼睛的開啟 「以利沙禱告說：耶和華啊！求您開這少年人的眼目，使他能看見。——以利沙說：耶和華啊！求您開這些人的眼目，使他們能看見。」列王紀下六章17、20節 何等奇妙！神垂聽了以利沙為他僕人的禱告，使這個少年人看見了滿山的火車火馬圍繞以利沙。神差遣天軍保護祂的僕人。以利沙再次禱告神。敘利亞的軍隊被神擊打而眼目昏迷，他們被領進撒瑪利亞。進了城後以利沙再禱告神開他們的眼睛。不料，他們發現自己竟是無助的囚奴落在他們敵人的手中。 我們盼望在屬靈境界中如此禱告。首先，求神開我們的眼睛，使我們看見神為著祂的教會奇妙的預備，祂用聖靈與火為我們施洗。一切屬天境界的能力，都由我們自由運用於天國的服事方面。神兒女對於這個屬天的異象，信心是何等小——聖靈的能力在神兒女身上與他們同在，且在他們裡面，為著他們的屬靈生活，作為他們的能力，得以歡樂地見證他們的主和祂的工作。 我們也需要以利沙的第二個禱告，求神開祂兒女們的眼睛，就是那些至今還不認識世界與罪的權勢在他們身上有地位的人。他們至今尚不覺察軟弱成了教會的特徵，並使教會沒有能力為基督搶救靈魂，不能建立聖徒，使他們過著聖潔結果子的生活。讓我們特別求神開所有人的眼睛，使我們看見教會最大、最基本的需要是甚麼，藉著代禱帶下祂的祝福，使人一直都知道聖靈的能力是帶著神聖的功效與祝福。 禱告： 我們在天上的父，您是極其樂意將聖靈的能力賞賜給我們，求您垂聽我們卑微的禱告。求您開我們的眼睛，使我們真看見的教會及您子民的光景是何其低落；也讓我們看見您所樂意要賜的恩典及能力是何等寶貴。您樂意垂聽教會在您面前同心合意的迫切禱告，而將這一切賜下。阿們。

三月二日 你覺得主的刺激麼？ 「耶穌第三次對他說，你愛我麼？」約翰福音廿一章17節 你覺得主的刺激到了你真情所在的部位麼？惡魔未曾刺到那裡，罪孽和人類的情愛也都沒有刺到那裡，除了神的道沒有任何事物刺到那地方。「彼得因為耶穌第三次對他說，就憂愁……」他醒悟過來，用他最深的心靈歸於耶穌，於是他開始明白這一問再問的意義。在彼得心裡，沒有迷惑的線索存在，此後，他再也不會被迷惑了。他不興奮，不動情，因為這種問語是彼得愛主的程度的一種顯示。所以他帶著驚奇的說：「主啊，您是無所不知的。」彼得開始明白他是怎樣的愛耶穌，但他並未說：「這可以證實，那可以證實。」彼得開始發覺自己是怎樣的愛主，除了耶穌基督以外，無論天上地下沒有可以比擬的；但是主的探刺的問語不來到，他是不能知道他愛主的深淺的。主的問語是能叫我發覺我自己的。 耶穌基督對付彼得的是何等耐心與機敏啊！不到時機成熟，我們的主是不問甚麼問語的。恐怕祂也有一次用不變的問話來刺激我們，叫我們認知我們愛祂的心，是言語所難形容的。

三月二日 「從前所交託你的善道，你要靠著那住在我們裡面的聖靈，牢牢地守著。」提摩太后書一章14節 神給我們的能力，使我們藉著能力持守我們的心，戰勝世界、成為聖潔。祂不僅交託我們善道，並且賜聖靈住在我們裡面。當我們心中有任何邪念或是壞點子時，我們的心可以很快地請聖靈將邪念驅逐出去。而聖靈就會按著我們信心的禱告使邪念離開，並且照我們所願地保守我們成為聖潔。 但是如果我們意志薄弱，與邪惡苟同，那麼聖靈就不會驅逐我們心中的惡念。然而，我們的神要求我們堅守聖潔，只要我們牢牢的守著善道，祂就會大大、豐富地祝福我們。祂也會成為我們靈裡的儆醒，指引我們避開邪惡，給我們能力察覺邪惡的存在，帶到神面前，讓祂趕走、毀壞邪念。 聖靈啊！求您充滿我們，直到我們心中只有您， 願您如火一般來到我們心中，察驗我們。 願您如水一般來到我們生命裡，洗盡我們的罪。 使我們因行您聖潔的旨意而終老一生， 直到我們完全地充滿神的豐富。
