1:1 提阿非羅大人哪,有好些人提筆作書,述說在我們中間所成就的事,是照傳道人從起初親眼看見又傳給我們的。 Many have undertaken to draw up an account of the things that have been fulfilled (\f1 1:1 Or|i been surely believed|d) among us,
1:2 提阿非羅大人哪,有好些人提筆作書,述說在我們中間所成就的事,是照傳道人從起初親眼看見又傳給我們的。 just as they were handed down to us by those who from the first were eyewitnesses and servants of the word. 1:3 這些事我既從起頭都詳細考察了,就定意要按著次序寫給你, Therefore, since I myself have carefully investigated everything from the beginning, it seemed good also to me to write an orderly account for you, most excellent Theophilus, 1:4 使你知道所學之道都是確實的。 so that you may know the certainty of the things you have been taught. 1:5 當猶太王希律的時候,亞比雅班裏有一個祭司,名叫撒迦利亞;他妻子是亞倫的後人,名叫伊利莎白。 In the time of Herod king of Judea there was a priest named Zechariah, who belonged to the priestly division of Abijah; his wife Elizabeth was also a descendant of Aaron. 1:6 他們二人在 神面前都是義人,遵行主的一切誡命禮儀,沒有可指摘的, Both of them were upright in the sight of God, observing all the Lord's commandments and regulations blamelessly. 1:7 只是沒有孩子;因為伊利莎白不生育,兩個人又年紀老邁了。 But they had no children, because Elizabeth was barren; and they were both well along in years. 1:8 撒迦利亞按班次在 神面前供祭司的職分, Once when Zechariah's division was on duty and he was serving as priest before God, 1:9 照祭司的規矩掣籤,得進主殿燒香。 he was chosen by lot, according to the custom of the priesthood, to go into the temple of the Lord and burn incense. 1:10 燒香的時候,眾百姓在外面禱告。 And when the time for the burning of incense came, all the assembled worshipers were praying outside. 1:11 有主的使者站在香壇的右邊,向他顯現。 Then an angel of the Lord appeared to him, standing at the right side of the altar of incense. 1:12 撒迦利亞看見,就驚慌害怕。 When Zechariah saw him, he was startled and was gripped with fear. 1:13 天使對他說:「撒迦利亞,不要害怕,因為你的祈禱已經被聽見了。你的妻子以利沙伯要給你生一個兒子,你要給他起名叫約翰。 But the angel said to him: <<Do not be afraid, Zechariah; your prayer has been heard. Your wife Elizabeth will bear you a son, and you are to give him the name John. 1:14 你必歡喜快樂;有許多人因他出世,也必喜樂。 He will be a joy and delight to you, and many will rejoice because of his birth, 1:15 他在主面前將要為大,淡酒濃酒都不喝,從母腹裏就被聖靈充滿了。 for he will be great in the sight of the Lord. He is never to take wine or other fermented drink, and he will be filled with the Holy Spirit even from birth. (\f2 1:15 Or|i from his mother's womb|d) 1:16 他要使許多以色列人回轉,歸於主─他們的 神。 Many of the people of Israel will he bring back to the Lord their God. 1:17 他必有以利亞的心志能力,行在主的前面,叫為父的心轉向兒女,叫悖逆的人轉從義人的智慧,又為主預備合用的百姓。」 And he will go on before the Lord, in the spirit and power of Elijah, to turn the hearts of the fathers to their children and the disobedient to the wisdom of the righteous--to make ready a people prepared for the Lord.>> 1:18 撒迦利亞對天使說:「我憑著甚麼可知道這事呢?我已經老了,我的妻子也年紀老邁了。」 Zechariah asked the angel, <<How can I be sure of this? I am an old man and my wife is well along in years.>> 1:19 天使回答說:「我是站在 神面前的加百列,奉差而來對你說話,將這好信息報給你。 The angel answered, <<I am Gabriel. I stand in the presence of God, and I have been sent to speak to you and to tell you this good news. 1:20 到了時候,這話必然應驗;只因你不信,你必啞巴,不能說話,直到這事成就的日子。」 And now you will be silent and not able to speak until the day this happens, because you did not believe my words, which will come true at their proper time.>> 1:21 百姓等候撒迦利亞,詫異他許久在殿裏。 Meanwhile, the people were waiting for Zechariah and wondering why he stayed so long in the temple. 1:22 及至他出來,不能和他們說話,他們就知道他在殿裏見了異象;因為他直向他們打手式,竟成了啞巴。 When he came out, he could not speak to them. They realized he had seen a vision in the temple, for he kept making signs to them but remained unable to speak. 1:23 他供職的日子已滿,就回家去了。 When his time of service was completed, he returned home. 1:24 這些日子以後,他的妻子伊利莎白懷了孕,就隱藏了五個月, After this his wife Elizabeth became pregnant and for five months remained in seclusion. 1:25 說:「主在眷顧我的日子,這樣看待我,要把我在人間的羞恥除掉。」 <<The Lord has done this for me,>> she said. <<In these days he has shown his favor and taken away my disgrace among the people.>> 1:26 到了第六個月,天使加百列奉 神的差遣往加利利的一座城去(這城名叫拿撒勒), In the sixth month, God sent the angel Gabriel to Nazareth, a town in Galilee, 1:27 到一個童女那裏,是已經許配大衛家的一個人,名叫約瑟。童女的名字叫馬利亞; to a virgin pledged to be married to a man named Joseph, a descendant of David. The virgin's name was Mary. 1:28 天使進去,對她說:「蒙大恩的女子,我問你安,主和你同在了!」 The angel went to her and said, <<Greetings, you who are highly favored! The Lord is with you.>> 1:29 馬利亞因這話就很驚慌,又反復思想這樣問安是甚麼意思。 Mary was greatly troubled at his words and wondered what kind of greeting this might be. 1:30 天使對她說:「馬利亞,不要怕!你在 神面前已經蒙恩了。 But the angel said to her, <<Do not be afraid, Mary, you have found favor with God. 1:31 你要懷孕生子,可以給他起名叫耶穌。 You will be with child and give birth to a son, and you are to give him the name Jesus. 1:32 他要為大,稱為至高者的兒子;主 神要把他祖大衛的位給他。 He will be great and will be called the Son of the Most High. The Lord God will give him the throne of his father David, 1:33 他要作雅各家的王,直到永遠;他的國也沒有窮盡。」 and he will reign over the house of Jacob forever; his kingdom will never end.>> 1:34 馬利亞對天使說:「我沒有出嫁,怎麼有這事呢?」 <<How will this be,>> Mary asked the angel, <<since I am a virgin?>> 1:35 天使回答說:「聖靈要臨到你身上,至高者的能力要蔭庇你,因此所要生的聖者必稱為 神的兒子〔或譯:所要生的,必稱為聖,稱為 神的兒子〕。 The angel answered, <<The Holy Spirit will come upon you, and the power of the Most High will overshadow you. So the holy one to be born will be called (\f3 1:35 Or|i So the child to be born will be called holy|d) the Son of God. 1:36 況且你的親戚伊利莎白,在年老的時候也懷了男胎,就是那素來稱為不生育的,現在有孕六個月了。 Even Elizabeth your relative is going to have a child in her old age, and she who was said to be barren is in her sixth month. 1:37 因為,出於 神的話,沒有一句不帶能力的。」 For nothing is impossible with God.>> 1:38 馬利亞說:「我是主的使女,情願照你的話成就在我身上。」天使就離開她去了。 <<I am the Lord's servant,>> Mary answered. <<May it be to me as you have said.>> Then the angel left her. 1:39 那時候,馬利亞起身,急忙往山地裏去,來到猶大的一座城; At that time Mary got ready and hurried to a town in the hill country of Judea, 1:40 進了撒迦利亞的家,問伊利莎白安。 where she entered Zechariah's home and greeted Elizabeth. 1:41 伊利莎白一聽馬利亞問安,所懷的胎就在腹裏跳動。伊利莎白且被聖靈充滿, When Elizabeth heard Mary's greeting, the baby leaped in her womb, and Elizabeth was filled with the Holy Spirit. 1:42 高聲喊著說:「你在婦女中是有福的!你所懷的胎也是有福的! In a loud voice she exclaimed: <<Blessed are you among women, and blessed is the child you will bear! 1:43 我主的母到我這裏來,這是從哪裏得的呢? But why am I so favored, that the mother of my Lord should come to me? 1:44 因為你問安的聲音一入我耳,我腹裏的胎就歡喜跳動。 As soon as the sound of your greeting reached my ears, the baby in my womb leaped for joy. 1:45 這相信的女子是有福的!因為主對她所說的話都要應驗。」 Blessed is she who has believed that what the Lord has said to her will be accomplished!>> 1:46 馬利亞說:我心尊主為大; And Mary said:<<My soul glorifies the Lord 1:47 我靈以 神我的救主為樂; and my spirit rejoices in God my Savior, 1:48 因為他顧念他使女的卑微;從今以後,萬代要稱我有福。 for he has been mindful of the humble state of his servant. From now on all generations will call me blessed, 1:49 那有權能的,為我成就了大事;他的名為聖。 for the Mighty One has done great things for me-- holy is his name. 1:50 他憐憫敬畏他的人,直到世世代代。 His mercy extends to those who fear him, from generation to generation. 1:51 他用膀臂施展大能;那狂傲的人正心裏妄想就被他趕散了。 He has performed mighty deeds with his arm; he has scattered those who are proud in their inmost thoughts. 1:52 他叫有權柄的失位,叫卑賤的升高; He has brought down rulers from their thrones but has lifted up the humble. 1:53 叫飢餓的得飽美食,叫富足的空手回去。 He has filled the hungry with good things but has sent the rich away empty. 1:54 他扶助了他的僕人以色列, He has helped his servant Israel, remembering to be merciful 1:55 為要記念亞伯拉罕和他的後裔,施憐憫直到永遠,正如從前對我們列祖所說的話。 to Abraham and his descendants forever, even as he said to our fathers.>> 1:56 馬利亞和伊利莎白同住,約有三個月,就回家去了。 Mary stayed with Elizabeth for about three months and then returned home. 1:57 伊利莎白的產期到了,就生了一個兒子。 When it was time for Elizabeth to have her baby, she gave birth to a son. 1:58 鄰里親族聽見主向她大施憐憫,就和她一同歡樂。 Her neighbors and relatives heard that the Lord had shown her great mercy, and they shared her joy. 1:59 到了第八日,他們來要給孩子行割禮,並要照他父親的名字叫他撒迦利亞。 On the eighth day they came to circumcise the child, and they were going to name him after his father Zechariah, 1:60 他母親說:「不可!要叫他約翰。」 but his mother spoke up and said, <<No! He is to be called John.>> 1:61 他們說:「你親族中沒有叫這名字的。」 They said to her, <<There is no one among your relatives who has that name.>> 1:62 他們就向他父親打手式,問他要叫這孩子甚麼名字。 Then they made signs to his father, to find out what he would like to name the child. 1:63 他要了一塊寫字的板,就寫上,說:「他的名字是約翰。」他們便都希奇。 He asked for a writing tablet, and to everyone's astonishment he wrote, <<His name is John.>> 1:64 撒迦利亞的口立時開了,舌頭也舒展了,就說出話來,稱頌 神。 Immediately his mouth was opened and his tongue was loosed, and he began to speak, praising God. 1:65 周圍居住的人都懼怕;這一切的事就傳遍了猶太的山地。 The neighbors were all filled with awe, and throughout the hill country of Judea people were talking about all these things. 1:66 凡聽見的人都將這事放在心裏,說:「這個孩子將來怎麼樣呢?」因為有主與他同在。 Everyone who heard this wondered about it, asking, <<What then is this child going to be?>> For the Lord's hand was with him. 1:67 他父親撒迦利亞被聖靈充滿了,就預言說: His father Zechariah was filled with the Holy Spirit and prophesied: 1:68 主─以色列的 神是應當稱頌的!因他眷顧他的百姓,為他們施行救贖, <<Praise be to the Lord, the God of Israel, because he has come and has redeemed his people. 1:69 在他僕人大衛家中,為我們興起了拯救的角, He has raised up a horn (\f4 1:69 |iHorn|d here symbolizes strength.) of salvation for us in the house of his servant David 1:70 正如主藉著從創世以來聖先知的口所說的話, (as he said through his holy prophets of long ago), 1:71 拯救我們脫離仇敵和一切恨我們之人的手, salvation from our enemies and from the hand of all who hate us-- 1:72 向我們列祖施憐憫,記念他的聖約─ to show mercy to our fathers and to remember his holy covenant, 1:73 就是他對我們祖宗亞伯拉罕所起的誓─ the oath he swore to our father Abraham: 1:74 叫我們既從仇敵手中被救出來, to rescue us from the hand of our enemies, and to enable us to serve him without fear 1:75 就可以終身在他面前,坦然無懼的用聖潔、公義事奉他。 in holiness and righteousness before him all our days. 1:76 孩子啊!你要稱為至高者的先知;因為你要行在主的前面,預備他的道路, And you, my child, will be called a prophet of the Most High; for you will go on before the Lord to prepare the way for him, 1:77 叫他的百姓因罪得赦,就知道救恩。 to give his people the knowledge of salvation through the forgiveness of their sins, 1:78 因我們 神憐憫的心腸,叫清晨的日光從高天臨到我們, because of the tender mercy of our God, by which the rising sun will come to us from heaven 1:79 要照亮坐在黑暗中死蔭裏的人,把我們的腳引到平安的路上。 to shine on those living in darkness and in the shadow of death, to guide our feet into the path of peace.>> 1:80 那孩子漸漸長大,心靈強健,住在曠野,直到他顯明在以色列人面前的日子。 And the child grew and became strong in spirit; and he lived in the desert until he appeared publicly to Israel. 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20日)
九月廿日 「我不是對你說過,你若信,就必看見神的榮耀麼?」約翰福音十一章40節 馬大和馬利亞不明白她們的主所作的是甚麼。她們兩人都先後對祂說「主啊,你若早在這裡,我兄弟必不死。」(21、32節)她們似乎在想:「主啊,我們不明白你為甚麼來得這般遲。我們不明白你怎麼忍心讓死亡臨到你所愛的。我們不明白你怎麼忍心讓憂傷和苦難來蹂躪我們的生命。為甚麼你不早些來呢?現在是太遲了,因為他死了已經四天了!」 對於這一切疑問,耶穌只用一個偉大的真理來答覆她們:「你也許不明白;但是我告訴你:你若信,就必看見。」 亞伯拉罕不明白為甚麼神要他把他獨生的兒子獻為燔祭;但是他信。他就看見了神的榮耀。摩西不明白為甚麼神要他在曠野隱居四十年,但是他信;當神呼召他去將以色列人從為奴之地領出來的時候,他就看見了。 約瑟對於他哥哥們的殘忍,對於一個潑婦的假見證,對於多年不公正的監禁,都絲毫不能明白;但是他信,最後他看見了神在其中的一切榮耀。 雅各不明白為甚麼神應許把約瑟從他懷中扯去,但是當他看見約瑟做了王的宰相,保存了他自己和一國的性命的時候,他就看見了神的榮耀。 親愛的,在你身上,也是這樣。你說,「我不明白為甚麼神容讓我心所愛的被奪去。我不明白為甚麼神應許苦難來侵襲我。我不明白為甚麼神領我行走這樣曲折的道路。我不明白為甚麼我視為美好的計畫和目的要受到挫折。我不明白為甚麼我這樣急迫的需要,遲延了這麼久,還沒有來到。」 朋友,你用不著明白神對付你的方法。神不盼望你能明白。你並不盼望你的孩子能明白你所作的,是嗎?只要信,有一天你必在你所不明白的事上看見神的榮耀。 ─馬克康該 假若我們能推開生命之門, 站在裏面, 看到神的工作, 我們就能解釋一切疑團, 每一個神秘, 都有它的線索。 但不今天,讓我們暫且滿足, 神的計劃像含苞未放的百合, 切不可剝開它緊閉的花瓣, 讓時間去揭露它的奇葩。 我們若經過長途跋涉, 疲倦的腳到了可以脫鞋休息, 那時我們將看清一切都瞭解, 我們說: 「神知道得最清楚」。

September 20 "Said I not unto thee, that, if thou wouldest belive, thou shouldest see the glory of God?" (John 11:40.) MARY and Martha could not understand what their Lord was doing. Both of them said to Him, "Lord, if thou hadst been here, my brother had not died." Back of it all, we seem to read their thought: "Lord, we do not understand why you have stayed away so long. We do not understand how you could let death come to the man whom you loved. We do not understand how you could let sorrow and suffering ravage our lives when your presence might have stayed it all. Why did you not come? It is too late now, for already he has been dead four days!" And to it all Jesus had but one great truth: "You may not understand: but I tell you if you believe, you will see." Abraham could not understand why God should ask the sacrifice of the boy; but he trusted. And he saw the glory of God in his restoration to his love. Moses could not understand why God should keep him forty years in the wilderness, but he trusted; and he saw when God called him to lead forth Israel from bondage. Joseph could not understand the cruelty of his brethren, the false witness of a perfidious woman, and the long years of an unjust imprisonment; but he trusted, and he saw at last the glory of God in it all. Jacob could not understand the strange providence which permitted the same Joseph to be torn from his father's love, but he saw the glory of God when he looked into the face of that same Joseph as the viceroy of great king, and the preserver of his own life and the lives of a great nation. And so, perhaps in your life. You say, "I do not understand why God let my dear one be taken. I do not understand why affliction has been permitted to smite me. I do not understand the devious paths which the Lord is leading me. I do not understand why plans and purposes that seemed good to my eyes should be baffled. I do not understand why blessings I so much need are so long delayed. Friend, you do not have to understand all God's ways with you. God does not expect you to understand them. You do not expect your child to understand, only believe. Some day you will see the glory of God in the things which you do not understand. ─J. H. McC. "If we could push ajar the gates of life, And stand within, and all God's working see, We might interpret all this doubt and strife, And for each mystery could find a key. "But not today. Then be content, poor heart; God's plans, like lilies pure and white, unfold. We must not tear the close-shut leaves apart─ Time will reveal the calyxes of gold. "And if, through patient toil, we reach the land, Where tired feet, with sandals loosed, may rest, When we shall clearly know and understand, I think that we shall say, `God knew best.'"

九月廿日 信心的能力 「在信的人凡事都能。」馬可福音九章23節 在聖經中,基督一再強調:無論是門徒或是求祂幫助的人,都需要具備凡事都能做的信心,若我們沒有單純而絕對的信靠神,要成全祂的應許,那我們就無法經歷聖經中的教訓。內住的生命必須有不止息的信心。 想一想每時刻信心的特徵!首先.要信靠神必成全一切的應許,單單對祂存有期望,不要滿足於支取某些應許。神所賜的應許都有其最大而最完全的意義,值得我們去尋求;我們必須承認自己一無所有,並無能亦無力為之,乃是依靠全能神的大能內住在我們心中所作奇妙的工作。 如此,使得我們全心滿有能力,信服並期望神,祂必將祂的應許,在日後用默示來成全在我們身上。神的應許和命令是與我們的降服、完全依靠,有不可分割的關係。 追求信心生命所產生的能力,往往也要有無法理解的信心,這是隨著開始看見的信的信心,等候期待神所要做成的,使我們有決志的行動,在神的話語上抓住祂、注視祂成全其應許,即使現在有多麼黑暗,祂也會照祂所說的變得光明。 整個內住,必須要以完全的信心生活來開始,假如基督在凡事上成為賜福給我們的朋友和同伴,是我們生命的喜樂和亮光,那就有特別有福氣的體驗基督的內住,並且日夜保守我們。這樣的信心,能使我們期待體驗主所說:「我要永遠與你們同在」的應許。

九月廿日 生命的神律 「所以你們要完全,像你們的天父完全一樣。」馬太福音五章48節 這幾節聖經,是我們的主勉勵我們,要我們對於人取寬大的態度。並且在靈性生活中,切勿跟著朋友親戚的步伐亦步亦趨。我們各人都有親戚朋友,有些人我們喜歡,有些人我們不喜歡,但是絕不可讓我們喜歡和我們不喜歡的人們來支配我們的生活。「我們若在光明中行,如同神在光明中,」(約壹一7)神將使我們與非親屬的人發生友誼的關係。 我們的主所給予我們的模範,不是一個好人的模範,甚而也不是一個好基督的模範,乃是神本身的模範。「所以你們要完全,像你們的天父完全一樣」──將神向你們所表明的,向人表明,神必給予我們充足的機會,在實際生活上表證我們是否像我們的天父完全一樣。基督徒對於人的興趣,是自願與神對於別人的興趣表示一致。「你們要彼此相愛,像我愛你們一樣……。」(約十五12) 基督徒的特性,不是行善,卻是像神。如果神的靈改變了你的內心,你必在你的生活上表現神的特性。不是好人的特性,乃是我們裡面的神的生命。將自己表明出來。這種生命絕不是人力所能求達的生命。做基督徒的祕訣,是藉著神在他裡面的恩典,將超然變作自然。這種經驗,不但與神同在時,實行出來,也在實際的活動上實行出來。我們在混亂的時候,能保持心靈的安靜,就是這個緣故。

九月二十日 「……等候我的必不至羞愧。」以賽亞書四十九章23節 神常常在我們工作一陣之後,把我們呼召到一旁,要我們休息;在回到事奉岡位之前,要我們學些功課。特別是當我們在工作上受到一些嚴重的傷害、突然的失敗,或是重大錯誤的時候。 古代騎士在逃離他敵人的過程中,總會慎重地為他們的馬釘上馬蹄鐵。雖然繼續快跑顯然是逃命的上策,但是他更高的智慧教導他,要先到鐵匠那裡休息片刻,並且重新為他的馬釘上馬蹄鐵。儘管他能聽到後面追兵的馬箭步而飛的聲音,但他還是安靜等候,直到他的戰馬裝好了馬蹄鐵,能帶他逃亡。然後他跳上馬鞍,在追兵彷彿只離他箭步之遠時,風馳電掣般從敵人面前飛奔而去。這個騎士知道他中途停下來,是有益於他的逃亡。 同樣道理,神也經常要我們等候,直到我們全然復原,能面對下次旅程和工作中更大的挑戰。 主呀!請教導我休息,知道您是我的神。請讓我終日與您同行。
