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03日）
三月三日 「那鬼喊叫，使孩子大大的抽了一陣瘋，就出來了。」馬可福音九章26節 惡者從來不肯放棄他的地盤，除非先有一陣激烈的戰爭。我們得到屬靈的產業，並不是在宴樂中得到的，乃是在戰場上得到的。這是屬靈的祕密。我們身體的各部亦是如此，要恢復屬靈的自由，必須要有寶血的代價。亞玻倫（啟九11）不是能用情誼、禮貌、要求，請出來的；他在裏面高視闊步；所以我們必須用屬靈的武力，寶血和眼淚驅逐他，他纔會出去。這一點我們必須記得，否則我們生活中會有許多誤解。我們重生，並不是重生在王宮中，乃是重生在曠野；那裏我們喫的奶，就是四周的風波和戰爭。「我們進入神的國，必須經歷許多艱難。」（徒十四22） ─喬懷德 我們祖先的信心， 雖歷經火與劍， 甚之牢獄的迫害， 但仍然不變， 我們聽到了這許多光榮的史蹟， 我們的心啊！ 何等的跳躍歡騰。 我們祖先的信心， 神聖的信心， 我們亦願矢忠矢誠， 至死不易！ 我們的祖先， 被關在黑牢之中， 可是他們心中自由的良知， 誰能索縛？ 倘若後代子孫也能為神殉道， 那是何等美妙何等幸福！

March 3 "And the spirit cried, and rent him sore, and came out of him." (Mark 9:26.) ＥVIL never surrenders its hold without a sore fight. We never pass into any spiritual inheritance through the delightful exercises of a picnic, but always through the grim contentions of the battle field. It is so in the secret realm of the soul. Every faculty which wins its spiritual freedom does so at the price of blood. Apollyon is not put to flight by a courteous request; he straddles across the full breadth of the way, and our progress has to be registered in blood and tears. This we must remember or we shall add to all the other burdens of life the gall of misinterpretation. We are not "born again" into soft and protected nurseries, but in the open country where we suck strength from the very terror of the tempest. "We must through much tribulation enter into the kingdom of God." ─Dr. J.H.Jowett. "Faith of our Fathers! living still, In spite of dungeon, fire and sword: O how our hearts beat high with joy Whene'er we hear that glorious word. Faith of our Fathers! Holy Faith! We will be true to Thee till death! "Our fathers, chained in prisons dark, Were still in heart and conscience free; How sweet would be their children's fate, If they, like them, could die for Thee!"

三月三日 神計劃中人的地位 「天是耶和華的天、地，祂卻給了世人。」詩篇廿五篇16節 神創造天作為祂自己的居所——完美的、榮耀的、至聖的。祂把地給了人作為人的居所——一切都很美好，只不過在起初的光景，需要人看守、栽培。神的工作已作成而有待人繼續並完成。認想土中所藏的煤礦以及水中之蒸氣，都有待人去發現、使用，正如今日遍地的鐵路網及水面上的船隻。神創造萬有就是如此被人所用，藉著人的智慧與勤勞去發現、使用。今天地上能有那麼多都市、居所、農田、果園等，都當歸功於人。創造之工是由神開始的，神創造、預備了，而是由人實行並達成神的目的。因此大自然就給我們看見這個奇妙的神人合作經營，為達到此目的的神，呼召人與祂同工，使神創造的工作能得以實行並達到神所預定之結果。 這個原則在神恩典的國度中也是一樣。在神偉大的救贖中，神已經把天上的生命及一切屬靈的福氣都向人顯明出來。但神卻把宣揚救恩福氣的工作託給人，使人能得著這些福氣。 世人為了尋求神所隱藏在地裡的財寶，而顯出何等的慇勤！離道神的兒女不該同樣地忠心尋求神所藏在天上的福氣，而將這些祝福帶到地上來嗎？乃是藉著神子民晝夜的呼求不能使祂的國度降臨，使祂的旨意行在地上如同行在天上。 禱告： 永遠可稱頌的主啊，您所賜予人的地位是何等奇妙，祂竟能將您所動的善工託付人繼續下去。我們求您開啟我們的心，使我們知道有藉著傳揚福音及代禱的工作，您的子民才能實行出您的旨意。主啊，開我們的眼睛——奉主耶穌之名。阿們。

三月三日 愛的真表現 「你餧養我的羊。」約翰福音廿一章17節 這是愛的成就。神的愛不是造的，愛是神的本性。在我們領受聖靈的時候，聖靈使我們與神聯絡，使祂的愛在我們裡面彰顯出來。當我們的靈藉著內在的聖靈而與神結合的時候，那並不是就此了事；是要我們與父合而為一，正如耶穌與父合而為一一樣。耶穌基督與父的合一性如何呢？因為祂與父合一，所以父差祂下來替我們作完全的犧牲，祂也照樣的說：「您怎樣差遣我到世上，我也照樣差他們到世上。」 彼得因主刺激問語的啟示而認知他愛耶穌；然後耶穌就叫他分愛於人。不必表證你怎樣的愛我，不必宣揚你所有的奇妙的啟示，但要「餧養我的羊。」耶穌有些怪異而調皮的羊，有些污濁的羊，有些粗野好鬥的羊，有些走入迷途的羊！神的愛沒有疲竭的可能，如果我們愛是由那個中心的源頭流出，我裡面的愛也沒有疲竭的可能。神的愛不因個性的分別而有差異。如果我愛主，我就不可讓我的性情來指導；只要餧養祂的羊就得了。這是責無旁貸的職務。當心不要以人性的同情來代替神的愛，因為那種愛終結是要褻瀆神之愛的。

三月三日 「凡管教的事，當時不覺得快樂，反覺得愁苦；後來卻為那經練過的人，結出平安的果子，就是義。」希伯來書十二章11節 神似乎喜歡用似非而是或似矛盾的方法來成就事情。例如甜頭之前必有酸苦，黎明之前總是黑夜，死亡卻是生命的大門；這彷彿是祂賜恩典的法則。 有許多人想得到權力，但是權力從何而來呢？有一天我經過一個發電場，看到電如何使電車的引擎轉動。我聽到無數輪子的嗡嗡之聲，於是就問我的朋友：「電力是如何產生的？」他說：「是靠那些輪子轉動時所產生的電磁摩擦而生，摩擦產生電流。」 同樣道理，當神要使我們更有能力時，祂也使我們受更多壓力。祂藉著摩擦使我們能有屬靈的力量。有些人不喜歡這個方法，有些人不明白。往往我們會逃避壓力，而不藉這樣的機會得到能力，或是突破痛苦的經歷。 煩惱憂傷的人，你雖在管教之中， 天父正在說：「休息、休息。」 讓我們學習在主前默默無聲。 使神能照著祂的旨意來塑造我們。
