1:1 耶和華的話臨到亞米太的兒子約拿,說: The word of the LORD came to Jonah son of Amittai:
1:2 「你起來往尼尼微大城去,向其中的居民呼喊,因為他們的惡達到我面前。」 <<Go to the great city of Nineveh and preach against it, because its wickedness has come up before me.>> 1:3 約拿卻起來,逃往他施去躲避耶和華;下到約帕,遇見一隻船,要往他施去。他就給了船價,上了船,要與船上的人同往他施去躲避耶和華。 But Jonah ran away from the LORD and headed for Tarshish. He went down to Joppa, where he found a ship bound for that port. After paying the fare, he went aboard and sailed for Tarshish to flee from the LORD. 1:4 然而耶和華使海中起大風,海就狂風大作,甚至船幾乎破壞。 Then the LORD sent a great wind on the sea, and such a violent storm arose that the ship threatened to break up. 1:5 水手便懼怕,各人哀求自己的神。他們將船上的貨物拋在海中,為要使船輕些。約拿已下到底艙,躺臥沉睡。 All the sailors were afraid and each cried out to his own god. And they threw the cargo into the sea to lighten the ship. But Jonah had gone below deck, where he lay down and fell into a deep sleep. 1:6 船主到他那裏對他說:「你這沉睡的人哪,為何這樣呢?起來,求告你的神,或者神顧念我們,使我們不致滅亡。」 The captain went to him and said, <<How can you sleep? Get up and call on your god! Maybe he will take notice of us, and we will not perish.>> 1:7 船上的人彼此說:「來吧,我們掣籤,看看這災臨到我們是因誰的緣故。」於是他們掣籤,掣出約拿來。 Then the sailors said to each other, <<Come, let us cast lots to find out who is responsible for this calamity.>> They cast lots and the lot fell on Jonah. 1:8 眾人對他說:「請你告訴我們,這災臨到我們是因誰的緣故?你以何事為業?你從哪裏來?你是哪一國?屬哪一族的人?」 So they asked him, <<Tell us, who is responsible for making all this trouble for us? What do you do? Where do you come from? What is your country? From what people are you?>> 1:9 他說:「我是希伯來人。我敬畏耶和華─那創造滄海旱地之天上的 神。」 He answered, <<I am a Hebrew and I worship the LORD, the God of heaven, who made the sea and the land.>> 1:10 他們就大大懼怕,對他說:「你做的是甚麼事呢?」他們已經知道他躲避耶和華,因為他告訴了他們。 This terrified them and they asked, <<What have you done?>> (They knew he was running away from the LORD, because he had already told them so.) 1:11 他們問他說:「我們當向你怎樣行,使海浪平靜呢?」這話是因海浪越發翻騰。 The sea was getting rougher and rougher. So they asked him, <<What should we do to you to make the sea calm down for us?>> 1:12 他對他們說:「你們將我抬起來,拋在海中,海就平靜了;我知道你們遭這大風是因我的緣故。」 <<Pick me up and throw me into the sea,>> he replied, <<and it will become calm. I know that it is my fault that this great storm has come upon you.>> 1:13 然而那些人竭力盪槳,要把船攏岸,卻是不能,因為海浪越發向他們翻騰。 Instead, the men did their best to row back to land. But they could not, for the sea grew even wilder than before. 1:14 他們便求告耶和華說:「耶和華啊,我們懇求你,不要因這人的性命使我們死亡,不要使流無辜血的罪歸與我們;因為你─耶和華是隨自己的意旨行事。」 Then they cried to the LORD, <<O LORD, please do not let us die for taking this man's life. Do not hold us accountable for killing an innocent man, for you, O LORD, have done as you pleased.>> 1:15 他們遂將約拿抬起,拋在海中,海的狂浪就平息了。 Then they took Jonah and threw him overboard, and the raging sea grew calm. 1:16 那些人便大大敬畏耶和華,向耶和華獻祭,並且許願。 At this the men greatly feared the LORD, and they offered a sacrifice to the LORD and made vows to him. 1:17 耶和華安排一條大魚吞了約拿,他在魚腹中三日三夜。 But the LORD provided a great fish to swallow Jonah, and Jonah was inside the fish three days and three nights. 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(09月16日)
九月十六日 「你離開這裡……藏在……基立溪旁。」列王紀上十七章3節 神的僕人應該知道隱藏生活的寶貴。我們不必驚奇,如果我們的父神對我們說:「孩子,你已經有了足彀的忙碌、名譽、刺激了;你離開這裡,藏在溪旁,藏在病室裡,藏在喪失中,藏在群眾已經退去的荒僻處。」 我們肯不肯這樣回答呢,「父神啊,您的旨意就是我的;我現在逃到您這裡來,求您把我藏在帳幕的隱密處,您翅翼的覆庇下!」 每一個屬靈人如果要得著能力,必須到隱藏的基立去。若非離開人們,離開自己,到一個深峽中去吸收,屬靈的能力是得不到的。像植物經過了無數年代吸收了太陽能才變成煤,經過燃燒,才能把力量發揮出來。 安得烈主教(Bishop Andrews)有他的基立,他每天花五小時在那裡專心禱告。韋爾息約翰(John Welsh)也有—─如果那一天沒有八小時在密室中與神交通,他就要以為這一天太浪費了。勃蘭納大衛(David Brainerd)的基立在北美洲林裡。伊文思的基立在韋爾斯山谷中。 讓我們回去看看:拔摩海島,羅馬監獄,亞拉伯曠野,巴勒斯坦(Palestine)山谷,都是先聖永遠值得記憶的基立。 主的基立在拿撒勒,猶大地的曠野,伯大尼的橄欖樹下,格拉森的荒地裡。我們中間沒有一個人可以沒有基立,因為在基立我們可以得到寶座前的安息,嘗到隱藏生活的甘甜,吸取基督耶穌的能力。 ─梅爾

September 16 "Hide thyself by the brook Cherith." (1 Kings 17:3.) GOD'S servants must be taught the value of the hidden life. The man who is to take a high place before his fellows must take a low place before his God. We must not be surprised if sometimes our Father says: "There, child, thou hast had enough of this hurry, and publicity, and excitement; get thee hence, and hide thyself by the brook─hide thyself in the Cherith of the sick chamber, or in the Cherith of bereavement, or in some solitude from which the crowds have ebbed away." Happy is he who can reply, "This Thy will is also mine; I flee unto Thee to hide me. Hide me in the secret of Thy tabernacle, and beneath the covert of Thy wings!" Every saintly soul that would wield great power with men must win it in some hidden Cherith. The acquisition of spiritual power is impossible, unless we can hide ourselves from men and from ourselves in some deep gorge where we may absorb the power of the eternal God; as vegetation through long ages absorbed these qualities of sunshine, which it now gives back through burning coal. Bishop Andrews had his Cherith, in which he spent five hours every day in prayer and devotion. John Welsh had it─who thought the day ill spent which did not witness eight or ten hours of closet communion. David Brainerd had it in the woods of North America. Christmas Evans had it in his long and lonely journeys amid the hills of Wales. Or, passing back to the blessed age from which we date the centuries: Patmos, the seclusion of the Roman prisons, the Arabian desert, the hills and vales of Palestine, are forever memorable as the Cheriths of those who have made our modern world. Our Lord found His Cherith at Nazareth, and in the wilderness of Judea; amid the olives of Bethany, and the solitude of Gadara. None of us, therefore, can dispense with some Cherith where the sounds of human voices are exchanged for the waters of quietness which are fed from the throne; and where we may taste the sweets and imbibe the power of a life hidden with Christ. ─Elijah, by Meyer.

九月十六日 我為什麼不能 「門徒暗暗地到耶穌跟前,說:『我們為什麼不能趕出那鬼呢?」耶穌說:「是因你們的信心小,……至於這一類的鬼,若不禱告、禁食,他就不出來。』」馬太福音十七章19—21節 門徒時常趕鬼,這次卻不能,所以他們問主,原因在那裏?主的答案很簡單!「因為你們的信心小。」 我在這裏要回答常有人問及的題目:為何我不能照聖經的應許與主有不分開的交通呢?答案很簡單,因為不信。我們並不真正相信,必須接受並期待神的旨意,靠著祂的大能才能成全祂所應許的;我們無法活在無助的環境,然而依靠神便有信心。如果我們的信心不剛強,神應許過我們祂會使之更好;但我們必須完全把心交給祂,單純的相信祂會在其中成就奇妙的工作。 但信心缺乏的原因是什麼?「這一類的鬼若不禱告禁食他就不出來。」堅強的信心要藉禱告而擁有,我們不能靠自己追求信心,因這是與神交通的結果,所需要的就是禱告;禁食的意義也是大而深遠,是需要捨己,是要捨棄從世界而來肉體的情慾、眼目的情慾和今生的驕傲。如要得到屬天生命的錦標,則要捨棄,捐出屬世的一切,因著神在我們身上行的奇蹟,使我們完全奉獻。只有神為我們所滿足,這樣所發出的信心才能趕出鬼,因已做到禱告和禁食的基本要素。

九月十六日 宗教的神域 「你禱告的時候,要進你的內屋,關上門,禱告你在暗中的父。」馬太福音六章6節 在宗教範圍中的主要觀念是──你的眼睛仰望神,不仰望人。你的動機,切不可要人知道你是一個祈禱的人。到內屋裡去禱告,就沒有人知道你祈禱的地方。關上門,與神密談,除了要知道天父以外,沒有別的動機。如果你暗中的禱告沒有定時,要想支配你的生活,像門徒一樣,是不可能的。 「你們禱告,不可像外邦人用許多重複話……」(太六7)神不因我們的誠懇而有印象。祂不因我們的誠懇,只因為救贖的緣故而聽我們的禱告。禱告不僅是領受神的東西,那種禱告是初步的形式;禱告是與神完全契合。如果我們重生有神的兒子形成在我們裡面,祂就是衝到我們理性前面,改變我們對於事物祈求的態度。 「凡祈求的就得著。」我們的禱告,有時簡直是空洞無物的語句,沒有真實的心情,但我們反說神不答覆;其實是神空洞無物之詞句裡,沒有表示求甚麼。耶穌說──「你們隨便求甚麼」。求的意思是專心壹志於祈禱這件事上。無論何時耶穌談到禱告,總是把禱告與小孩的單純一同提出。而我們呢?是帶著疑慮的意味說──「是的,但是……。」耶穌說──「求」。但須記取的,是我們祈求神的心,應與耶穌基督所啟示的神和諧一致。

九月十六日 「……我總不撇下你,也不丟棄你。」希伯來書十三章5節 儘管我們常犯錯誤,自找一些原可避免的麻煩,但要知道神不會丟棄祂犯錯的孩子,且總是能隨時原諒、釋放那些謙卑悔改及誠心祈求的人。 我們不要因為一時離開祂所帶領的道路,就完全放棄我們的信心。當神呼召以色列民族進入應許之地時,他們並沒有跟隨,然而神沒有遺棄他們;他們在曠野流浪的四十年中,神緊緊地與他們同行,帶著耐心、愛心地忍受他們的墮落,因祂期盼以恩典去對待新的一代。以賽亞書六十三章9節說:「他們在一切苦難中,祂也同受苦難,並且祂面前的使者拯救他們,他以慈愛和憐憫救贖他們,在古時的日子常保抱他們,懷搋他們。」所以今天,若是我們的漂泊帶給我們憂傷,使我們失去許多祝福。然而對那些真心選擇神的孩子,祂還是會親切地說:「我總不撇下你,也不丟棄你。」
