1:1 當猶大王亞們的兒子約西亞在位的時候,耶和華的話臨到希西家的玄孫,亞瑪利雅的曾孫,基大利的孫子,古示的兒子西番雅。 The word of the LORD that came to Zephaniah son of Cushi, the son of Gedaliah, the son of Amariah, the son of Hezekiah, during the reign of Josiah son of Amon king of Judah:
1:2 耶和華說:我必從地上除滅萬類。 <<I will sweep away everything from the face of the earth,>> r declares the LORD. 1:3 我必除滅人和牲畜,與空中的鳥、海裏的魚,以及絆腳石和惡人;我必將人從地上剪除。這是耶和華說的。 <<I will sweep away both men and animals; I will sweep away the birds of the air and the fish of the sea. The wicked will have only heaps of rubble 1:3 The meaning of the Hebrew for this line is uncertain. when I cut off man from the face of the earth,>> r declares the LORD. 1:4 我必伸手攻擊猶大和耶路撒冷的一切居民,也必從這地方剪除所剩下的巴力,並基瑪林的名和祭司, <<I will stretch out my hand against Judah and against all who live in Jerusalem. I will cut off from this place every remnant of Baal, the names of the pagan and the idolatrous priests-- 1:5 與那些在房頂上敬拜天上萬象的,並那些敬拜耶和華指著他起誓,又指著瑪勒堪起誓的, those who bow down on the roofs to worship the starry host, those who bow down and swear by the LORD and who also swear by Molech, 1:5 Hebrew ((Malcam,)) that is, Milcom 1:6 與那些轉去不跟從耶和華的,和不尋求耶和華也不訪問他的。 those who turn back from following the LORD and neither seek the LORD nor inquire of him. 1:7 你要在主耶和華面前靜默無聲,因為耶和華的日子快到。耶和華已經預備祭物,將他的客分別為聖。 Be silent before the Sovereign LORD, for the day of the LORD is near. The LORD has prepared a sacrifice; he has consecrated those he has invited. 1:8 到了我─耶和華獻祭的日子,必懲罰首領和王子,並一切穿外邦衣服的。 On the day of the LORD's sacrifice I will punish the princes and the king's sons and all those clad in foreign clothes. 1:9 到那日,我必懲罰一切跳過門檻、將強暴和詭詐得來之物充滿主人房屋的。 On that day I will punish all who avoid stepping on the threshold, 1:9 See 1 Samuel 5:5. who fill the temple of their gods with violence and deceit. 1:10 耶和華說:當那日,從魚門必發出悲哀的聲音,從二城發出哀號的聲音,從山間發出大破裂的響聲。 <<On that day,>> declares the LORD, <<a cry will go up from the Fish Gate, wailing from the New Quarter, and a loud crash from the hills. 1:11 瑪革提施的居民哪,你們要哀號,因為迦南的商民都滅亡了!凡搬運銀子的都被剪除。 Wail, you who live in the market district; 1:11 Or ((the Mortar)) all your merchants will be wiped out, all who trade with 1:11 Or ((in)) silver will be ruined. 1:12 那時,我必用燈巡查耶路撒冷;我必懲罰那些如酒在渣滓上澄清的;他們心裏說:耶和華必不降福,也不降禍。 At that time I will search Jerusalem with lamps and punish those who are complacent, who are like wine left on its dregs, who think, <The LORD will do nothing, either good or bad.> 1:13 他們的財寶必成為掠物;他們的房屋必變為荒場。他們必建造房屋,卻不得住在其內;栽種葡萄園,卻不得喝所出的酒。 Their wealth will be plundered, their houses demolished. They will build houses but not live in them; they will plant vineyards but not drink the wine. 1:14 耶和華的大日臨近,臨近而且甚快,乃是耶和華日子的風聲;勇士必痛痛地哭號。 <<The great day of the LORD is near-- near and coming quickly. Listen! The cry on the day of the LORD will be bitter, the shouting of the warrior there. 1:15 那日是忿怒的日子,是急難困苦的日子,是荒廢淒涼的日子,是黑暗幽冥、密雲烏黑的日子, That day will be a day of wrath, a day of distress and anguish, a day of trouble and ruin, a day of darkness and gloom, a day of clouds and blackness, 1:16 是吹角吶喊的日子,要攻擊堅固城和高大的城樓。 a day of trumpet and battle cry against the fortified cities and against the corner towers. 1:17 我必使災禍臨到人身上,使他們行走如同瞎眼的,因為得罪了我。他們的血必倒出如灰塵;他們的肉必拋棄如糞土。 I will bring distress on the people and they will walk like blind men, because they have sinned against the LORD. Their blood will be poured out like dust and their entrails like filth. 1:18 當耶和華發怒的日子,他們的金銀不能救他們;他的忿怒如火必燒滅全地,毀滅這地的一切居民,而且大大毀滅。 Neither their silver nor their gold will be able to save them on the day of the LORD's wrath. In the fire of his jealousy the whole world will be consumed, for he will make a sudden end of all who live in the earth.>> This is Alex Markley's PHPScripture v1.2.0, displaying a copy of Chinese Union Version Bible in XOOPS. 本模組中文化由長島基督福音教會的Jack起始, 聖經文字部分由CCIM(網路基督使團)網站下載. 如欲修改經文請洽聖經公會. 荒漠甘泉五合一■ 中文荒漠甘泉(04月11日)
四月十一日 「我在暗中告訴你們的,你們要在明處說出來。」馬太福音十章27節 我們的主常帶我們到黑暗中去,為著要和我們說話。有時他帶我們進入孤單的黑暗,有時他帶我們進入憂傷的黑暗,有時祂帶我們進入失望的黑暗,有時他帶我們進入疾病的黑暗。 然後祂告訴我們祂偉大的、神奇的、永遠的、無限的奧祕;祂開啟我們迷糊的眼睛,叫我們看見屬天的榮耀;祂開通我們聾聵的耳朵,叫我們聽見他的聲音。在黑暗裏我們能學到以前從來沒有學到的功課。 可是我們得到了啟示以後,就有一個責任—─「你們要在明處說出來—─要在屋頂上宣揚出來。」 我們並不會一直沉在黑暗中的;不久我們就要出來的;那時候我們就當把我們所學到的說出來,宣揚出來。 這樣看來,我們受苦,並非是毫無意義,毫無目的的。許多時候,我們在受苦的時候會悲嘆說:「我還有甚麼用處呢?我對於人類有甚麼益處呢?我寶貴的一生就這樣浪費了麼?我告訴你:神是有目的的。神要我們和祂有最高的交通,神要我們能面對面聽祂說話,將信息帶給在山腳下的人們。 摩西在西乃山、以利亞在何烈山、保羅在亞拉伯、豈都是白費時日呢?信心聖潔與得勝生活的必要條件,別無捷徑可循,所以基督徒必須有單獨默想,與神交通的時間,我們的靈,需要與至高者交通,也需要在岩石的陰影和夜晚的星光之下,靜靜安息。當黑暗遮蔽了塵世的煩囂,也就展開了永恆與不朽的景象,這對於靈魂的需要,好像肉體之需要糧食毫無兩樣。 這樣,我們纔會時時覺得神的同在,能和大衛一同說:「耶和華阿,你與我相近。」(詩一一九151) ─梅爾

April 11 "What I tell you in the darkness, speak ye in the light."(Matt. 10:27.) OUR Lord is constantly taking us into the dark, that He may tell us things. Into the dark of the shadowed home, where bereavement has drawn the blinds; into the dark of the lonely, desolate life, where some infirmity closes us in from the light and stir of life; into the dark of some crushing sorrow and disappointment. Then He tells us His secrets, great and wonderful, eternal and infinite; He causes the eye which has become dazzled by the glare of earth to behold the heavenly constellations; and the ear to detect the undertones of his voice, which is often drowned amid the tumult of earth's strident cries. But such revelations always imply a corresponding responsibility─"that speak ye in the light─that proclaim upon the housetops." We are not meant to always linger in the dark, or stay in the closet; presently we shall be summoned to take our place in the rush and storm of life; and when that moment comes, we are to speak and proclaim what we have learned. This gives a new meaning to suffering, the saddest element in which is often its apparent aimlessness. "How useless I am!" "What am I doing for the betterment of men?" "Wherefore this waste of the precious spikenard of my soul?" Such are the desperate laments of the sufferer. But God has a purpose in it all. He has withdrawn His child to the higher altitudes of fellowship, that he may hear God speaking face to face, and bear the message to his fellows at the mountain foot. Were the forty days wasted that Moses spent on the Mount, or the period spent at Horeb by Elijah, or the years spent in Arabia by Paul? There is no short cut to the life of faith, which is the allvital condition of a holy and victorious life. We must have periods of lonely meditation and fellowship with God. That our souls should have their mountains of fellowship, their valley of quiet rest beneath the shadow of a great rock, their nights beneath the stars, when darkness has veiled the material and silenced the stir of human like, and has opened the view of the infinite and eternal, is as indispensable as that our bodies should have food. Thus alone can the sense of God's presence become the fixed possession of the soul, enabling it to say repeatedly, with the Psalmist, "Thou art near, O God." ─F. B. Meyer.

四月十一日 對基督的信心 「你們信神,也當信我。」約翰福音十四章1節 在主臨別的談話中(約十四至十七章)當基督快要離開祂的門徒時,祂教導他們,必須以同樣堅定相信神的心,來相信祂自己。 「你們信神,也當信我。」「你們當信我,我在父裏面。」「我所作的事,信我的人,也要作。」當主在地上時,祂沒有辦法使門徒們完全的認識祂。但是在天上,神豐滿的能力是屬於祂的;祂要在祂門徒裏,藉著他們作比祂在地上所作更大的事。這個信心必須首先集中在與父原為一的基督身上。他們必須完全相信,神所已經作的一切,現在也能由耶穌來作。基督的神性乃是我們信心所倚靠的磐石。那位有分於我們性情,為人的基督,在實際上乃是真神。神的能力怎樣在基督裏面作工,甚至使祂從死裏復活;照樣基督在祂神聖的全能中,也能在我們裏面作成我們所需要的一切。 親愛的基督徒啊!你豈沒有看見:花時間在神聖的全能裏,敬拜這一位與父同在的耶穌,這是何等重要呢!這將教導你依賴祂的豐盛,在我們裏面作成我們所渴望的一切。這樣的信心必須佔有我們,使我們每次想到基督,就滿覺這位大能救贖主的同在。祂能拯救我們,聖別我們,並賜能力,使我們達到完美的地步。 神的兒女啊,要在極深的謙卑中,俯伏在這位可稱頌的主耶穌面前,敬拜祂說:「我的主,我的神!」要花時間,直等到你完全的感覺中,產生一個確實的信心在你裏面:相信基督就是那位全能的神,祂要為你,在你裏面;並藉著你,來作成神所渴望的,以及你所需要的一切。讓這位你所認識、所愛的救主,成為你前所未曾知道的全能的神。也讓祂成為你的確據和力量。 救主即將離世前,在最後一晚的臨別談話中,一開始就告訴他們,在他們一生中,每一件事都在於相信祂。由於這信心他們甚至能作比祂所作更大的事。在祂談話快結束時,祂又重複說:「你們可以放心,我已經勝了世界。」我們有一個需要,就是直接的、確定的、且不住地相信,基督的大能大力正作工在我們裏面。

四月十一日 道德的神性 「我們若在祂死的形狀上與祂聯合,也要在祂復活的形狀上與祂聯合。」羅馬書六章5節 同復活──我與耶穌同釘十字架的憑證,就是我與祂有顯然的類似。耶穌的靈進入我裡面,就將我個人的生命與神調和起來。耶穌因為復活才有權柄將神的生命傳輸給我;而我實際的生命,是在祂生命的基礎上建立起來。我現在能有耶穌復活的生命,並且在聖潔上表示出來。 使徒保羅諸書信的總念,是道德的決斷,而與耶穌的死聯合以後,則耶穌復活的生命,必侵入我們人性的各部份。要在必死的肉體裡面發展神兒子的生活,非有神的能力不可。聖靈不像客人住在房裡某一定的地方,祂侵入各部分。當我一旦決定我的「舊人」──就是罪的遺傳──與耶穌同釘的時候,聖靈就進入我裡面,支配一切;而我也行在光中,順服祂所啟示的一切。當我曾經對於罪下了道德決斷的時候,我在罪裡確算是死的,因為我時時得著耶穌的生命。聖潔只有一種記號,正如人性只有一種記號一樣;那就是耶穌的聖潔,這聖潔就是祂賜給我們的恩賜。神將祂兒子的聖潔安放在我裡面,我便在靈性上屬於一個新的秩序了。

四月十一日 「當將你的事交託耶和華……」詩篇卅七章5節 有一個老太太對信心下了一個非常好的定義,可以說是我所聽過中最好的。一位年輕人問她在完全匱乏的時候如何信任神,這老太太很性格地用手指指著年輕人,並且帶著強調的口吻說:「你一定得相信神已經成就了你的禱告,那麼祂就必在你的需要上供給你。」 對於我們而言,最大的一個危機,在於求神之後卻不相信祂已經應允了我們的禱告;相反的,我們總是不斷地想要監督祂,或是要別人一起監督幫助祂。 信心是對神的應許說:「阿們!誠心所願。」然後將一切交給神,讓祂來完成祂的工作。信心是將我們的事交託耶和華,並倚靠祂,讓神來成全。 主啊!我放棄掙扎, 凡事交託給您, 從今時此刻起, 將永遠相信您的話語。
