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(07月19日)
七月十九日 「我父所給我那杯,我豈可不喝呢?」約翰福音十八章11節 親愛的讀者,你可知道說這句話,比平靜風和海、叫死人復活更偉大嗎?先知和使徒能行許多神蹟奇事,卻不能事事遵行忍受神的旨意。遵行忍受神的旨意是信心的最高點,是基督人所能作到的最高一點。有時候你光明的希望遭了永久的毀滅;每天所背負的重擔永得不著輕減;當你渴望有充足的財力能使所愛的人過些幸福舒適的生活時,反遭到了貧窮拮据;或者竟被身體上不治的病症捆鎖拘禁在病榻上;赤裸裸地被剝奪了一切所愛的人們,剩下你獨自一人孤孤單單地去抵禦一切外來的襲擊─—在這種試煉之下,你依然能說:「我父所給我的那杯,我豈可不喝呢?」─這就是最高點的信心!這就是最高點屬靈的成功!最大的信心不是在行為上呈露出來的,乃是在忍受上呈露出來的。 ─巴克赫特 要有一個同情的神,必須先有一個受苦的主;一個沒有嘗過同樣痛苦的心,對於別人不會發生真實的同情。 我們自己不出代價,就不能幫助別人;我們的痛苦就是我們所付的代價,叫我們以後能同情於他人的難堪。要作一個幫助人的人,必須先作一個受苦的人。要作一個救人的人,必須先經過十字架的對付;我們若不喝主所喝的杯,受主所受的苦,就不能享受救助人的那種人生最高的喜樂。 大衛的詩篇中最能安慰人的幾篇,乃是在苦難中壓出來的;如果保羅沒有一根刺加在他肉體上,在他許多的書信上一定會失去多少溫柔! 親愛的讀者,你現在受壓的環境,就是父神手裏用以雕製你的一件最合式的工具。不要去推開祂─恐怕你一動,就會弄壞了父的工作呢! 這遭遇, 我們也許發現它, 艱辛而又奇酷, 但隱伏在它的後面, 卻有我們所需的幸福。 受苦的學校,訓練出優秀的學者來。

July 19 "The cup which my Father hath given me, shall I not drink it?" (John 18:11.) THIS was a greater thing to say and do than to calm the seas or raise the dead. Prophets and apostles could work wondrous miracles, but they could not always do and suffer the will of God. To do and suffer God's will is still the highest form of faith, the most sublime Christian achievement. To have the bright aspirations of a young life forever blasted; to bear a daily burden never congenial and to see no relief; to be pinched by poverty when you only desire a competency for the good and comfort of loved ones; to be fettered by some incurable physical disability; to be stripped bare of loved ones until you stand alone to meet the shocks of life-to be able to say in such a school of discipline, "The cup which my Father has given me, shall I not drink it?" -this is faith at its highest and spiritual success at the crowning point. Great faith is exhibited not so much in ability to do as to suffer. ─Dr. Charles Parkhurst. To have a sympathizing God we must have a suffering Saviour, and there is no true fellow-feeling with another save in the heart of him who has been afflicted like him. We cannot do good to others save at a cost to ourselves, and our afflictions are the price we pay for our ability to sympathize. He who would be a helper, must first be a sufferer. He who would be a saviour must somewhere and somehow have been upon a cross; and we cannot have the highest happiness of life in succoring others without tasting the cup which Jesus drank, and submitting to the baptism wherewith He was baptized. The most comforting of David's psalms were pressed out by suffering; and if Paul had not had his thorn in the flesh we had missed much of that tenderness which quivers in so many of his letters. The present circumstance, which presses so hard against you (if surrendered to Christ), is the best shaped tool in the Father's hand to chisel you for eternity. Trust Him, then. Do not pust away the instrument lest you lose its work." "Strange and difficult indeed We may find it, But the blessing that we need Is behind it." The school of suffering graduates rare scholars.

七月十九日 君尊的祭司 「你們是被揀選的族類,是君尊的祭司。」彼得前書二章9節 在舊約裏,我們看到國度思想的第一面,新約卻讓我們特別看到祭司體系。 導致教會只存著奄奄一息的生命,最大原因就是像人們只以得到神的恩典為樂的錯誤觀念。這是一個致命的錯誤!神的目的卻遠高過我們的看法。祂所以施行拯救,就希望藉著我們拯救其他的人,每位信徒應該讓別人分享他接受的新生命。 對於那些得救的人,神呼召他們成為祂賜恩的媒介,教會有氣無力的光景,是由於大多數基督徒只關心他們死後能否上天堂造成的。教會應該使每位得救的人明白,福音要使人們得救而去服事主,得救而為救恩做見證,所以主說:「你們是君尊的祭司。」 一個君尊的祭司!一個祭司的心應以憐憫為懷,因著基督愛心的激勵,使我們領人歸向祂,可說有兩方面促使我們有這種德行,一是愛基督的表示,我們要討祂喜悅,也就領人來尊崇愛戴祂;另一是愛人靈魂的心,這也激勵我在任何事上都以犧牲的態度來與人分享屬天的生命。 一個祭司的心!到神面前為那些尚未得救的人代求,一個祭司的心,是樂於為失喪者代求,也有勇氣向他們傳講基督。祭司應該傚法大祭司耶穌一生不斷為人代求,祂拯救的權能也在此彰顯出來。神的靈!願您寫下這句話永不擦掉「是君尊的祭司。」

七月十九日 信者的夫子 「你們稱呼我夫子,稱呼我主:你們說的不錯,我本來是。」約翰福音十三章13節 我們的主從不堅持祂的權柄,一定如此,一定如彼;也絕不說──「你必定如此」。祂讓我們絕對自由──我們自由到吐唾沫在祂臉上,像人所做過的一樣;自由到置祂於死地,像人所做過的一樣;祂也不發一言。但是祂的生命,藉著救贖,在我裡面成功了之後,我立刻就承認祂有絕對支配我的權利。這是一種道德的權限──「您是配……」。只是在我裡面不配的,不肯向那配的低首下心來。如果我遇見一個比我聖潔的人,不承認祂的優點,服從祂所說的話,便是將我不配之點揭示出來了。神藉著比我們略好一點的人,──不是在智識,卻是在聖潔──來教訓我們,直到我們能完全受主的支配,使生活的整個態度,完全服從祂。 如果我們的主堅持著要人服從,那麼祂就是一個監工,不是具有道德威權的夫子。祂從未強人服從,但當我們看見祂的時候,我們就馬上服從祂,自願的承認祂是主,從早到晚要在崇拜祂的生活中活著。我在恩典中長進的表現,是從以我服從的方式為轉移。我們要把「服從」這一句話從污泥中提出來。服從只在平等人中有可能性。這是父與子的關係,不是主與僕的關係。「我與父原為一」。「祂雖是兒子,卻因受難學了順服」。因為兒子的順服,所以做了救贖者。因為祂是兒子,不是要作兒子。

七月十九日 「……然而大衛攻取錫安的保障,就是大衛的城。」歷代志上十一章5節 如果你彷彿終日都在爭戰之中,這可能是因為你從來沒有打勝一場具有重大決定性的戰爭。若是我們能克服這場大的戰役,那麼就比一生中都在小戰事裡要容易得多。我認識一些終生與他們的罪爭戰的人,他們浪費在與罪交戰所付出的力量,甚至早已足夠用來向世界傳福音了。 你值得賠上自己的生命嗎?為何不讓耶穌與你一起打敗那惡者,以得到永恆的勝利,然後讚美神呢?儘管你得努力進入神的國,儘管路途陡峭,十字架的道路不易行走,但是一接受耶穌之後,你就會有絕對的平安。祂能「使你們太平、不被四圍的一切仇敵擾亂……。」(申十二10)願神幫助我們,賜給我們在祂裡面的安息。 朋友,永遠離開你的罪吧, 讓救主的寶血贖回你, 由祂來使你成聖。 來吧!與我們一起來, 我們願你得大好處。
