這人就是先知以賽亞所說的。他說:「在曠野有人聲喊著說:預備主的道,修直他的路!」 3 This is he who was spoken of through the prophet Isaiah:「A voice of one calling in the desert, Prepare the way for the Lord, make straight paths for him. 」(\f12 3:3 Isaiah 40:3)
這約翰身穿駱駝毛的衣服,腰束皮帶,吃的是蝗蟲、野蜜。 4 John's clothes were made of camel's hair, and he had a leather belt around his waist. His food was locusts and wild honey.
約翰看見許多法利賽利人和撒都該人也來受洗,就對他們說:「毒蛇的種類!誰指示你們逃避將來的忿怒呢? 7 But when he saw many of the Pharisees and Sadducees coming to where he was baptizing, he said to them: 「You brood of vipers! Who warned you to flee from the coming wrath?
不要自己心裏說:『有亞伯拉罕為我們的袓宗。』我告訴你們,神能從這些石頭中給亞伯拉罕興起子孫來。 9 And do not think you can say to yourselves, We have Abraham as our father. I tell you that out of these stones God can raise up children for Abraham.
現在斧子已經放在樹根上,凡不結好果子的樹就砍下來,丟在火裏。 10 The ax is already at the root of the trees, and every tree that does not produce good fruit will be cut down and thrown into the fire.
我是用水給你們施洗,叫你們悔改。但那在我以後來的,能力比我更大,我就是給他提鞋也不配。他要用聖靈與火給你們施洗。 11 「I baptize you with (\f13 3:11 Or|i in|d) water for repentance. But after me will come one who is more powerful than I, whose sandals I am not fit to carry. He will baptize you with the Holy Spirit and with fire.
他手裏拿著簸箕,要揚淨他的場,把麥子收在倉裏,把糠用不滅的火燒盡了。」 12 His winnowing fork is in his hand, and he will clear his threshing floor, gathering his wheat into the barn and burning up the chaff with unquenchable fire.」
耶穌回答說:「你暫且許我,因為我們理當這樣盡諸般的義〔或譯:禮〕。」於是約翰許了他。 15 Jesus replied, 「Let it be so now; it is proper for us to do this to fulfill all righteousness.」 Then John consented.
耶穌受了洗,隨即從水裏上來。天忽然為他開了,他就看見神的靈彷彿鴿子降下,落在他身上。 16 As soon as Jesus was baptized, he went up out of the water. At that moment heaven was opened, and he saw the Spirit of God descending like a dove and lighting on him.
October 1 "It is good for me that I have been afficted." (Psalm 119:71.) IT is a remarkable circumstance that the most brilliant colors of plants are to be seen on the highest mountains, in spots that are most exposed to the wildest weather. The brightest lichens and mosses, the loveliest gems of wild flowers, abound far up on the bleak, storm-scalped peak. One of the richest displays of organic coloring I ever beheld was near the summi of Mount Chenebettaz, a hill about 10,000 feet high, immediately above the great St. Bernard Hospice. The whole face of an extensive rock was covered with a most vivid yellow lichen which shone in the sunshine like the golden battlement of an enchanted castle. There, in that lofty region, amid the most frowning desolation, exposed to the fiercest tempest of the sky, this lichen exhibited a glory of color such as it never showed in the sheltered valley. I have two specimens of the same lichen before me while I write these lines, one from the great. St. Bernard, and the other from the wall of a Scttish castle, deeply embossed among sycamore trees; and the difference in point of form and coloring between them is most striking. The specimen nurtured amid the wild storms of the mountain peak is of a lovely primrose hue, and is smooth in texture and complete in outline, while the specimen nurtured amid the soft airs and the delicate showers of the lowland valley is of a dim rusty hue, and is scurfy in texture, and broken in outline. And is it not so with the Christian who is afflicted, tempesttossed, and not comforted? Till the storms and vicissitudes of God's providence beat upon him again and again, his character appears marred and clouded; but trials clear away the obscurity, perfect the outlines of his disposition, and give brightness and blessing to his life. Amidst my list of blessings infinite Stands this the foremost, that my heart has bled; For all I bless Thee, most for the severe. ──Hugh Macmillan.
