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!

二月廿日 「你們沒有一件不能作的事了。」馬太福音十七章20節 有了信心，我們就沒有一件不能的事。只要我們真相信神有保守和得勝的能力，我們就能看見祂所說的話語和應許，都是實在的。 我們能。天天把我們一切的罣慮和重擔卸給神，享受平安和喜樂。 我們能。管轄頭腦中的思想，晝夜繫念神的話語。 我們能。在每一件事情上清楚神的旨意；不是用嘆息，乃是用讚美去接受。 我們能靠神的恩典剛強；我們以前的軟弱，以前叫我們不能忍耐、聖潔、謙卑的罪，今天都能靠著愛我們的主勝過了，使罪完全失去它在我們身上的權勢。 這些都是神恩典中可能的事，如果我們有了這些經歷，就會更願意俯伏在神腳前，也就會更渴慕最高的靈命。 我們如果不能每天、每小時、每分鐘在基督裏，藉著聖靈的能力與神同行，我們就不會得到滿足。 ─慕爾 在基督裏，我們能有神一切的豐富。主已經把神寶庫的鑰匙放在我們手中了，祂吩咐我們去無限制地領取一切我們所要的。若是一個銀行的行長，准許一個窮人到銀行庫中去任意取他所要的；假定那個窮人出來的時候，只帶了一文錢，這是誰的過失呢？基督人能得到神完全的豐富，而仍過著極窮的生活，這是誰的過失呢？ ─麥克拉倫

February 20 "Nothing shall be impossible unto you."(Matt. 17:20.) ＩT is possible, for those who really are willing to reckon on the power of the Lord for keeping and victory, to lead a life in which His promises are taken as they stand and are found to be true. It is possible to cast all our care upon Him daily and to enjoy deep peace in doing it. It is possible to have the thoughts and imasinations of our hearts purified, in the deepest meaning of the word. It is possible to see the will of God in everything, and to receive it, not with sighing, but with singing. It is possible by taking complete refuge in Divine power to become strong through and through; and, where previously our greatest weakness lay, to find that things which formerly upset all our resolves to be patient, or pure, or humble, furnish today an opportunity─through Him who loved us, and works in us an agreement with His will and a blessed sense of His presence and His power─to make sin powerless over us. These things are DIVINE POSSIBLILITIES, and because they are His work, the true experience of them will always cause us to bow lower at His feet and to learn to thirst and long for more. We cannot possibly be satisfied with anything less─each day, each hour, each moment, in Christ, through the power of the Holy Spirit─than to WALK WITH GOD. ─H. C. G. Moule. We may have as much of God as we will. Christ puts the key of the treasure-chamber into our hand, and bids us take all that we want. If a man is admitted into the bullion vault of a bank, and told to help himself, and comes out with one cent, whose fault is it that he is poor? Whose fault is it that Christian people generally have such scanty portions of the free riches of God? ─McLaren.

二月廿日 測不透的神 「神為大，我們不能全知；論到全能者，我們不能測度；祂大有能力。」約伯記卅六章26節，卅七章23節 神是個靈，祂的位格和榮耀，是遠超我們所能領會的；我們實在太渺小了，對於祂的審度，是微乎其微的。在屬靈的生命裡，最要緊的是該有一個深深的感覺，就是神的意念和道路是遠遠地高過我們的意念，像天離地那樣高。我們該用何等謙卑和聖潔的虔誠來仰望神，並帶著像孩子一樣簡單的心，降服於聖靈的教訓呢？「深哉，神豐富的智慧和知識！祂的判斷，何其難測！祂的蹤跡，何其難尋！」（羅十一33） 讓我們的心答應說：「哦，主啊！哦，諸神之神，您的意念何等奇妙；您的謀略何其深奧。」認識神的學習應當充滿在我們裡面，使我們用聖潔的敬畏，並聖潔的盼望，正確地認識並尊敬祂。讓我們思想——祂的偉大、祂的能力、祂的全能、祂的智慧、祂的聖潔、祂的憐憫、祂的慈愛，這些都是我們所無法測度的。 當我們敬拜的時候，讓我們喊說：「我們的神，我們的父，在您的偉大裡，有何等無法測度的榮耀！」願你帶著羞愧的心承認，你沒有好好地追求認識祂，也沒有等候祂來啟示祂自己。然後開始在信心裡超越所有理解的方法，來信靠這位測不透全然榮耀的神，要作工在你的心裡和生命裡，使你越過越正確的認識祂。 「主耶和華啊，我的眼目仰望您；我投靠您。」（詩一四一8）「當休息（或作安靜），要知道我是神。」（詩四十六10）

二月廿日 避免夢想 「起來，我們走吧！」約翰福音十四章31節 為的要一件事做得合法，而多想其事，那是對的；但是到了我應該動手的時候，我們還在那裡夢想，那是不對的。我們的主向門徒說了那些奇特的事件以後，我們也許以為祂要對他們說走開去，把它們從頭到尾默想默想；但是我們的主從不許「呆著癡著。」當我們與神接觸時，要察出祂所要的是甚麼，多用想像是對的；但是我們一味的花費我們的時光去夢想神要我們所做的事，那是不對的，而且這也不是神可能祝福的舉動。神總是帶著刺的性質，喚醒這種迷夢；所謂刺便是吩咐我們「走動吧！不要坐著也不要站著。」 如果我們靜候於神之前，祂必說：「你們單獨的來吧，」這個時候便是在神面前默想之時，為的要得知我們所追奔的路線。但是不要在神表示祂的意志以後，還在那裡一味的夢想，應當出去實現其所說的。如果你戀愛一個人，你不會常坐著，夢想你所愛的人，你一定是想去，替他效力；那就是耶穌基督盼望我們作的。在神吩咐以後還是夢想，那是我們不信靠祂的一種表示。

二月廿日 「你不要害怕，因為我與你同在……」以賽亞書四十一章10節 撒但不斷地藉著恐懼，使我們的信心變得軟弱。牠是一個了不起的玄學家，並且知道恐懼能使人癱瘓、是信心最大的仇敵。假如牠能使我們害怕，就能叫我們不再靠主，阻止我們得到需要的祝福。約伯曾感到恐懼的危險，他給一個悲哀的見證：「因我所恐懼的臨到我身……。」(伯三25) 懼怕乃從撒但而來。我們若是能花一點時間想想看，就不難發現所有撒但說的都是建築在虛偽的事上。牠是謊言之父，即使是從牠來的懼怕都是假的，我們應該把牠所恐嚇的變成一種鼓勵。 所以，當撒但對你說有些壞事會發生時，你應該靜靜地轉著牠的臉告訴牠，牠是個大騙子。因為神所應許的是，我們一生一世都有恩惠慈愛隨著我們。然後我們可以轉臉對主說：「我懼怕的時候要依靠您。」(詩五六3)懼怕乃因不靠主，仰賴神是懼怕的良藥。
