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!

二月十一日 「等到……祭司把腳站在……水裏，……水……必然斷絕。」（約書亞記三章13節） 百姓必須憑信向前進，並不能在營中坐待外面的路開通了之後方纔起行。他們必須拔營開步、整裝束荷、排齊隊伍、直達河邊，雖然河水還沒有起變化。 到了河邊，若是他們想停在那裏，等河水分開了，然後伸足下水，他們定規空等，定規到今天還在河東。他們在水斷絕之前，必須先舉足涉水。 讓我們也學習怎樣用信心抓住神的話前進，不看前面的道路能否通行。我們常受攔阻和難處的挫折，都是因為我們想等神先替我們開路，挪去了一切的攔阻和難處，然後再試著前行。這是何等的錯誤。若是神要我們向前衝，我們就憑著信心抓住祂的話語向前衝，好像一無攔阻一般，路自然會為我們一步步地敞開。 ─譯自晚思 他背後躺著灰色的亞速爾島， 已經遠離了直布羅陀海峽， 前面看不見海岸的影子； 茫茫大海， 白浪滔天。 船上的大副說： 「我們必須禱告， 看哪！星星都已隱湮。 勇敢的船長， 我該怎麼下令？」 你說： 「駛向前去！向前！向前！」 「我的船員一天比一天更想叛變， 他們形容憔悴， 衰弱可憐，」 大副這樣報告， 心中思念家鄉。 鹹澀的浪花濺上他黝黑的臉。 「我該怎樣下令， 英勇的船長， 假若明早仍只見海水無邊？」 「哦，破曉的時候你該說， 駛向前去！向前！向前」 他們繼續航行， 大副說道： 「今夜狂暴的海洋露出了獠牙， 掀開了唇， 張開了大嘴， 好像要吞滅我們， 咬死我們！ 英勇的船長， 只求你說一句話； 希望已渺， 無法持守！」 但船長的話如利刃出鞘說： 「駛向前去！向前！向前」 他精疲力竭， 苦守甲板， 從黑暗中遠遠眺望， 有一夜， 忽然遙見一點微光， 光明！光明！光明已在望！ 它的發展， 就是日後的旗旌， 時代的黎明， 展開在黑暗之間， 他達到了那新世界， 並且給那世界一個最偉大的啟示， 「駛向前去！向前！」 ─密勒 憑著信心前進，即是勝利。

February 11 "As soon as the soles of the feet of the priests....shall rest in the waters....the waters shall be cut off."(Joshua 3:13.) ＴHE people were not to wait in their camps until the way was opened, they were to walk by faith. They were to break camp, pack up their goods, form in line to march, and move down to the very banks before the river would be opened. If they had come down to the edge of the river and then had stopped for the stream to divide before they stepped into it, they would have waited in vain. They must take one step into the water before the river would be cut off. We must learn to take God at His Word, and go straight on in duty, although we see no way in which we can go forward. The reason we are so often balked by difficulties is that we expect to see them removed before we try to pass through them. If we would move straight on in faith, the path would be opended for us. We stand still, waiting for the obstacle to be removed, when we ought to go forward as if there were no obstacles. ─Evening Thoughts. Behind him lay the gray Azores, Behind the gates of Hercules; Before him not the ghost of shores, Before him only shoreless seas. The good Mate said:" Now we must pray, For lo! the very stars are gone. Brave Admiral, speak, what shall I say?" "Why, say, `Sail on! sail on! and on!" "My men grow mutinous day by day; My men grow ghastly wan and weak!" The stout Mate thought of home; a spray, of salt wave washed his swarthy cheek. "What shall I say, brave Admiral, say, If we sight naught but seas at dawn?" "Why, you shall say at break of day, 'Sail on! sail on! sail on! and on!'" They sailed. They sailed. Then spoke the Mate: "This mad sea shows its teeth tonight. He curls his lip, he lies in wait, With lifted teeth, as if to bite! Brave Admiral, say but one good word; What shall we do when hope is gone?" The words leapt like a leaping sword: "Sail on! sail on! sail on! and on!" Then, pale and worn, he kept his deck, And peered through darkness. Ah! that night Of all dark nights! And then a speck─ A light! A light! A light! A light! It grew, a starlit flag unfurled! It grew to be Time's burst of dawn. He gained a world; he gave that world, Its grandest lesson: "On! sail on!" ─Joaquin Miller. Faith that goes forward triumphs.

二月十一日 父神 「奉父、子、聖靈的名給他們施浸。」馬太福音廿八章19節 我們要記得這聖潔三而一的神的意義，有其敬虔的一方面。我們說到神，我們就想到有一個不能想像的距離；這距離將聖潔的神和罪人分開，使我們只能俯伏在極其懊悔和畏懼之中。當我們說到聖子基督，我們就想到與祂之間的距離是近得無法再近的，祂為女子所生，就是為亞當的女兒所生，並且受了咒詛的死，祂是這樣與我們不能分開的聯合直到永遠！我們再說到聖靈，我們就想起神無限的祝福，有祂的同在在我們裡面，使我們成為祂的家和祂的殿，一直到永遠。 當基督教導我們：「我們在天上的父」的時候，祂立刻接著說：「願人都尊您的名為聖，」因為神是聖潔的，所以我們也要聖潔。除了我們尊那名為聖，並藉著禱告親近祂之外，再沒有成聖的路了。 多少時候，我們說到那名，並沒有覺得是一個不可言喻的特權，說出我們與神之間的關係。如果我們肯花時間與神接觸，在祂的父愛裡敬拜祂，我們的內室就要成為天堂的門了。神的兒女，如果你禱告你在暗中的父，在祂面前深深地俯伏，尋求去敬拜最聖潔的名。請你們記得，這就是禱告最高的祝福。 「禱告你在暗中的父，你父在暗中察看，必然報答你。」（太六6） 在隱密處單獨親近神，並喊說：「我的父！」這是何等不可言諭的權利呢？相信祂在暗中察看我，也要在明處報答我。讓我們來學習，直到你能說：「我面對面見了神，我的性命仍得保全。」（創卅二30）

二月十一日 你對神的希望日漸消滅麼？ 「堅心倚賴您的，您必保守他十分平安。」以賽亞書廿六章3節 你寄留想像於神呢？或者你的想像消失了呢？想像的消失，在工人的生命中是一個耗盡和毀滅的源頭。如果你從沒有運用你順服神的想像，就從現在開始吧！等候神到來，是無用的；你必丟下對偶像的想像來仰望祂，就必得救。想像是神賜與我們最偉大的恩賜，應該將想像完全供獻給祂。如果你能約束你各種思想，去順服基督，那麼，當試探來到的時候，這便是信心最大的遺產。因為你的信心和神的靈共同工作起來。尊視神的觀念，利用大自然所表現的一切，去組合──日出和日入，太陽和星宿，氣候的變化──則你的想像就不受你衝動的節制，必是去作服務神的事工。 「我們與我們的祖宗一同犯罪……而遺忘了」──於是放一把小劍在你睡覺的地方。「神現在不與我談話，」但是是不應該與我談話的。謹記你是屬誰的，你服事的是誰，用回想來鼓勵你自己，而你對於神的熱愛必增十倍；你的想像必不再消失，會馬上恢復起來，而你的盼望必有不能言喻的光明。

二月十一日 「……得以在各樣的力上加力，好叫你們凡事……忍耐寬容」歌羅西書一章11節 保羅為歌羅西的聖徒禱告，他盼望他們能照神榮耀的權能、得以在各樣的力上加力，好叫他們凡事歡歡喜喜的忍耐寬容。能夠忍耐，但是滿臉帶著壓力的表現，似乎每條皺紋都在說：「為什麼沒有任何人同情我？」是一回事。然而能夠因擺在我們前面的喜樂，而能背負十字架、輕視羞辱，則完全是另一回事。 在主的花園中，有些樹「炎熱來到，並不懼怕，葉子仍必青翠，在乾旱之年毫無掛慮，而且結果不止。」(耶十七8)讓我們把臉轉向上升的太陽，且將隨風而來雲朵變成奪目的彩虹。 我們再過不多的時候，就不會再有機會在苦難中喜樂，並且學習忍耐。在天堂不會有任何事能教導我們忍受折磨。所以假使我們現在學不會，就永遠無法得到榮耀的冠冕。甚至將來會渴望時光倒流，回到我們現在極力擺脫的多樣情況中。
