1:1 耶穌基督的僕人，雅各的弟兄猶大，寫信給那被召、在父 神裏蒙愛、為耶穌基督保守的人。 Jude, a servant of Jesus Christ and a brother of James, b Tocthose who have been called, who are loved by God the Father and kept by(\f1 1 Or|i for|d; or|i in|d) Jesus Christ:
1:2 願憐恤、平安、慈愛多多的加給你們。 Mercy, peace and love be yours in abundance. 1:3 親愛的弟兄啊，我想盡心寫信給你們，論我們同得救恩的時候，就不得不寫信勸你們，要為從前一次交付聖徒的真道竭力的爭辯。 Dear friends, although I was very eager to write to you about the salvation we share, I felt I had to write and urge you to contend for the faith that was once for all entrusted to the saints. 1:4 因為有些人偷著進來，就是自古被定受刑罰的，是不虔誠的，將我們 神的恩變作放縱情慾的機會，並且不認獨一的主宰─我們〔或譯和我們〕主耶穌基督。 For certain men whose condemnation was written about(\f2 4 Or|i men who were marked out for condemnation|d) long ago have secretly slipped in among you. They are godless men, who change the grace of our God into a license for immorality and deny Jesus Christ our only Sovereign and Lord. 1:5 從前主救了他的百姓出埃及地，後來就把那些不信的滅絕了。這一切的事，你們雖然都知道，我卻仍要提醒你們。 Though you already know all this, I want to remind you that the Lord(\f3 5 Some early manuscripts|i Jesus|d) delivered his people out of Egypt, but later destroyed those who did not believe. 1:6 又有不守本位、離開自己住處的天使，主用鎖鍊把他們永遠拘留在黑暗裏，等候大日的審判。 And the angels who did not keep their positions of authority but abandoned their own home--these he has kept in darkness, bound with everlasting chains for judgment on the great Day. 1:7 又如所多瑪、蛾摩拉和周圍城邑的人，也照他們一味地行淫，隨從逆性的情慾，就受永火的刑罰，作為鑑戒。 In a similar way, Sodom and Gomorrah and the surrounding towns gave themselves up to sexual immorality and perversion. They serve as an example of those who suffer the punishment of eternal fire. 1:8 這些做夢的人也像他們污穢身體，輕慢主治的，毀謗在尊位的。 In the very same way, these dreamers pollute their own bodies, reject authority and slander celestial beings. 1:9 天使長米迦勒為摩西的屍首與魔鬼爭辯的時候，尚且不敢用毀謗的話罪責他，只說：「主責備你吧！」 But even the archangel Michael, when he was disputing with the devil about the body of Moses, did not dare to bring a slanderous accusation against him, but said, <<The Lord rebuke you!>> 1:10 但這些人毀謗他們所不知道的。他們本性所知道的事與那沒有靈性的畜類一樣，在這事上竟敗壞了自己。 0 Yet these men speak abusively against whatever they do not understand; and what things they do understand by instinct, like unreasoning animals--these are the very things that destroy them. 1:11 他們有禍了！因為走了該隱的道路，又為利往巴蘭的錯謬裏直奔，並在可拉的背叛中滅亡了。 Woe to them! They have taken the way of Cain; they have rushed for profit into Balaam's error; they have been destroyed in Korah's rebellion. 1:12 這樣的人在你們的愛席上與你們同吃的時候，正是礁石〔或譯：玷污〕他們作牧人，只知餧養自己，無所懼怕；是沒有雨的雲彩，被風飄蕩；是秋天沒有果子的樹，死而又死，連根被拔出來； These men are blemishes at your love feasts, eating with you without the slightest qualm--shepherds who feed only themselves. They are clouds without rain, blown along by the wind; autumn trees, without fruit and uprooted--twice dead. 1:13 是海裏的狂浪，湧出自己可恥的沫子來；是流蕩的星，有墨黑的幽暗為他們永遠存留。 They are wild waves of the sea, foaming up their shame; wandering stars, for whom blackest darkness has been reserved forever. 1:14 亞當的七世孫以諾，曾預言這些人說：「看哪，主帶著他的千萬聖者降臨， Enoch, the seventh from Adam, prophesied about these men: <<See, the Lord is coming with thousands upon thousands of his holy ones 1:15 要在眾人身上行審判，證實那一切不敬虔的人，所妄行一切不敬虔的事，又證實不敬虔之罪人所說頂撞他的剛愎話。」 to judge everyone, and to convict all the ungodly of all the ungodly acts they have done in the ungodly way, and of all the harsh words ungodly sinners have spoken against him.>> 1:16 這些人是私下議論，常發怨言的，隨從自己的情慾而行，口中說誇大的話，為得便宜諂媚人。 These men are grumblers and faultfinders; they follow their own evil desires; they boast about themselves and flatter others for their own advantage. 1:17 親愛的弟兄啊，你們要記念我們主耶穌基督之使徒從前所說的話。 But, dear friends, remember what the apostles of our Lord Jesus Christ foretold. 1:18 他們曾對你們說過，末世必有好譏誚的人隨從自己不敬虔的私慾而行。 They said to you, <<In the last times there will be scoffers who will follow their own ungodly desires.>> 1:19 這就是那些引人結黨、屬乎血氣、沒有聖靈的人。 These are the men who divide you, who follow mere natural instincts and do not have the Spirit. 1:20 親愛的弟兄啊，你們卻要在至聖的真道上造就自己，在聖靈裏禱告， But you, dear friends, build yourselves up in your most holy faith and pray in the Holy Spirit. 1:21 保守自己常在 神的愛中，仰望我們主耶穌基督的憐憫，直到永生。 Keep yourselves in God's love as you wait for the mercy of our Lord Jesus Christ to bring you to eternal life. 1:22 有些人存疑心，你們要憐憫他們； Be merciful to those who doubt; 1:23 有些人你們要從火中搶出來，搭救他們；有些人你們要存懼怕的心憐憫他們，連那被情慾沾染的衣服也當厭惡。 snatch others from the fire and save them; to others show mercy, mixed with fear--hating even the clothing stained by corrupted flesh. 1:24 那能保守你們不失腳、叫你們無瑕無疵、歡歡喜喜站在他榮耀之前的我們的救主─獨一的 神， To him who is able to keep you from falling and to present you before his glorious presence without fault and with great joy-- 1:25 願榮耀、威嚴、能力、權柄，因我們的主耶穌基督歸與他，從萬古以前並現今，直到永永遠遠。阿們。 to the only God our Savior be glory, majesty, power and authority, through Jesus Christ our Lord, before all ages, now and forevermore!

一月卅日 「我必向以色列如甘露。」何西阿書十四章5節 露是代表新鮮，朝氣，活潑。神降露原是為著更新大地，滋潤花草。聖經中也常說起露，用來表明屬靈的更新。神常藉聖靈更新祂的子民，猶如用露更新大地一般。在提多三章5節所說的「聖靈的更新」，就是講聖靈有露珠一般的執事。 許多神的僕人不懂得屬靈的露珠在他們生命中的重要。結果，他們沒有活潑，缺乏朝氣。他們的靈性下沈（甚至枯萎），就是因為沒有靈露的更新。 親愛的同工，你想一個工人能不喫東西，而整天作工麼？你想一個神的工人能不喫屬靈的嗎哪，而專一事奉麼？不，絕對不能。偶然喫一次也是不彀的。你必須每天接受聖靈的更新當作你靈性的滋養。怎樣去接受神的靈露呢？安靜，吸收。到了深夜寂靜時，花草葉子的氣孔都張開了，這時候正是他們受露珠的時候；屬靈的露珠也是這樣，當我們在神前安靜等待的時候，我們就會得到更新和滋潤。急躁不會叫你得到甚麼。安靜等待，直到你沈浸在主的同在裡；然後帶著基督的新鮮和活潑到工場裡去。 ─巴亭登 有風或是有熱的時候，露珠凝結不起來。風必須平靜，熱度必須下降，大氣必須到又靜又冷的一點，露珠纔能凝結在葉子或花瓣上。照樣，神更新的恩典，也是如此；必須等到你的火氣退去、你靈安靜，然後神纔降甘露滋潤你。 ─選 滴下您安靜的露珠， 讓我們也一切寧靜， 卸卻靈魂的緊張與重負， 在生活中反映出您的美麗和平意境。 為人慾而奔騰的脈搏， 需要一劑鎮定與清涼， 不必再狂跳和慌張， 風火地震的大變動中， 依舊寧靜安詳。

January 30 "I will be as the dew unto Israel." (Hosea 14:5.) ＴHE dew is a source of freshness. It is nature's provision for renewing the face of the earth. It falls at night, and without it the vegetation would die. It is this great value of the dew which is so often recognized in the Scriptures. It is used as the symbol of spiritual refreshing. Just as nature is bathed in dew, so the Lord renews His people. In Titus 3:5 the same thought of spiritual refreshing is connected with the ministry of the Holy Ghost─"renewing of the Holy Ghost." Many Christian workers do not recognize the importance of the heavenly dew in their lives, and as a result they lack freshness and vigor. Their spirits are drooping for lack of dew. Beloved fellow-worker, you recognize the folly of a laboring man attempting to do his day's work without eating. Do you recognize the folly of a servant of God attempting to minister without eating of the heavenly manna? Nor will it suffice to have spiritual nourishment occasionally. Every day you must receive the renewing of the Holy Ghost. You know when your whole being is pulsating with the vigor and freshness of Divine life and when you feel jaded and worn. Quietness and absorption bring the dew. At night when the leaf and blade are still, the vegetable pores are open to receive the refreshing and invigorating bath; so spiritual dew comes from quiet lingering in the Master's presence. Get still before Him. Haste will prevent your receiving the dew. Wait before God until you feel saturated with His presence; then go forth to your next duty with the conscious freshness and vigor of Christ. ─Dr. Pardington. Dew will never gather while there is either heat or wind. The temperature must fall, and the wind cease, and the air come to a point of coolness and rest─absolute rest, so to speak─before it can yield up its invisible particles of moisture to bedew either herb or flower. So the grace of God does not come forth to rest the soul of man until the still point is fairly and fully reached. "Drop Thy still dews of quietness, Till all our strivings cease: Take from our souls the strain and stress; And let our ordered lives confess The beauty of Thy peace. "Breathe through the pulses of desire Thy coolness and Thy balm; let sense be dumb, its beats expire: Speak through the earthquake, wind and fire, O still small voice of calm!"

一月卅日 基督在我裡面 「豈不知……就有耶穌基督在你們心裡麼？」哥林多後書十三章5節 使徒的意思，是要每一個基督徒都能活在這樣完全確實的信心中，就是「基督在我裡面」。若是每天早晨，我們都有一段時間，被「基督在我裡面」這個思想所充滿，我們的生活就要有何等的不同呢！我在基督裡是如何確定，照樣，基督在我裡面也是同樣的確定。 在最後一個晚上，基督很清楚地告訴門徒，聖靈要來教導他們一件事，就是「到那日，你們就知道我在父裡面，你們在我裡面，我也在你們裡面。」首先，是你們在我裡面。藉著神的能力，我們所有相信的人，都已經與基督一同釘死，又與祂一同復活，結果就是基督在我們裡面。但是這件事是不容易認識的。基督徒需要用信心接受神的話語，這樣，聖靈就要引導我們進入一切的真理。請今天就花時間在禱告裡認識這個福分，也支取這個福分。 保羅在以弗所書三章十六節的禱告中是何等清楚的表示這個思想：「求他按著他榮耀的豐富賞給你們……（英譯）」請注意，保羅所求的並不是普通恩典的賜給，乃是在祂的愛和能力之豐富裡的一個特別啟示。就是祂應許你，藉著祂的靈，用能力叫你到裡面的人裡剛強起來，好使基督因著信，住在你們心裡。你已經抓住了這個應許麼？基督徒的確能經歷被神一切的豐滿所充滿。 親愛的弟兄們！保羅曾說：「我在父面前屈膝。」這就是得著這個福分唯一的路。請在內室裡花時間來認識：「基督住在我裡面。」我在已往對這個經歷得太少了，但是我要呼求神，仰望祂在我裡面作成祂的工作。即使在日常的工作中，我也要把我的心當作神兒子的居所，並且說：「我已經與基督同釘十字架，現在活著的不再是我，乃是基督在我裡面活著。」（加二20）惟有這樣，基督所說「住在我裡面」「我也住在你們裡面」的話，纔能成為我們每日的經歷。

一月卅日 順服的進退兩難 「撒母耳……不敢將默示告訴以利。」撒母耳記上三章15節 神少用驚愕的方式向我們說話，卻用容易引起誤會的方式，叫我們捉摸不定──「那是神的聲音麼？」以賽亞說，耶和華「嚴厲地」向他說，那就是用環境的壓迫來向他說。凡與我們所接觸的事，沒有一樣不是神所說的話，我們是在這環境中察覺祂的作為呢？還是察覺那些事變呢？ 能養成說「主啊，請說」的習慣，人生將要成為一種活潑自由。每當環境壓迫，說：「主啊，請說」；便當安排一段時間來靜聽神的聲音。譴責不僅是一種訓練，而且是使我達到說「主啊，請說」這句話的地步。你回憶神對你說話的時候，記不起祂對你所說的麼？是不是路加福音十一章13節或帖撒羅尼迦前書五章23節的話呢？我們越聽，我們的耳朵越敏銳，將如耶穌一樣能隨時聽見神的聲音。 我將神啟示我的，告訴我的以利麼？那便臨到服從的進退兩難。我不把神啟示我的，告訴我的以利嗎？他是我所敬重的人；告訴我的以利嗎？便是先去探詢人的意見，而違反了神。神沒有吩咐撒母耳去告訴以利；這是神要他自己所決定的。神向你的呼召也許有傷於你的以利；但是如果你想維護別人生命的痛苦，你的靈和神的靈會發生阻隔。你不砍去右手或剜出眼睛，這是你自己的危險。 神要你自己所決定的事，不要請求別人的指示。如果你請求別人的指示，差不多是走近了撒但。「我就不與屬血氣商量了」。
■ 中文上海嗎哪（01月30日）
一月三十日 「打倒了，卻不至死亡。」哥林多後書四章9節 神如何使紅海分開的奇蹟發生？乃是藉著使祂的子民走頭無路，只有依靠神的拯救。埃及人在他們後面，紅海在他們前面，高山在他們兩邊，他們除了從上而來的奇蹟，真是別無逃脫之法。 有人曾說撒但能用牆四面包圍我們，但牠無法把房頂蓋死，因為我們總是能從天上得到幫助。我們的難題其實是神給的挑戰，很多時候祂使困難變得很難，難得讓我們不是得勝，就是慘敗。 神如此行，乃為幫助我們培養最高的信心，使我們在急難中成為神最美好的兒女。 親愛的朋友，這是神的時刻。如果你勇敢面對一切，你必會得著祂，永遠不再陷入困境中，卻能四處逢源。正如雅各在毘努伊勒與神面對面一樣，你也不再叫雅各，而要被稱為以色列。讓我們把需要帶到祂座前，藉著祂的供給證實祂的信實。
