QT:扎根於神的生命(約伯記08:11—08:22)
[生命泉源]
08:11 — | 蒲草沒有泥豈能發長?蘆荻沒有水豈能生發? Can papyrus grow tall where there is no marsh? Can reeds thrive without water? |
08:12 — | 尚青的時候,還沒有割下,比百樣的草先枯槁。 While still growing and uncut, they wither more quickly than grass. |
08:13 — | 凡忘記神的人,景況也是這樣;不虔敬人的指望要滅沒。 Such is the destiny of all who forget God; so perishes the hope of the godless. |
08:14 — | 他所仰賴的必折斷;他所倚靠的是蜘蛛網。 What he trusts in is fragile; what he relies on is a spider's web. |
08:15 — | 他要倚靠房屋,房屋卻站立不住;他要抓住房屋,房屋卻不能存留。 He leans on his web, but it gives way; he clings to it, but it does not hold. |
08:16 — | 他在日光之下發青,蔓子爬滿了園子; He is like a well-watered plant in the sunshine, spreading its shoots over the garden; |
08:17 — | 他的根盤繞石堆,扎入石地。 it entwines its roots around a pile of rocks and looks for a place among the stones. |
08:18 — | 他若從本地被拔出,那地就不認識他,說:我沒有見過你。 But when it is torn from its spot, that place disowns it and says, `I never saw you. |
08:19 — | 看哪,這就是他道中之樂;以後必另有人從地而生。 'Surely its life withers away, and from the soil other plants grow. |
08:20 — | 神必不丟棄完全人,也不扶助邪惡人。 "Surely God does not reject a blameless man or strengthen the hands of evildoers. |
08:21 — | 他還要以喜笑充滿你的口,以歡呼充滿你的嘴。 He will yet fill your mouth with laughter and your lips with shouts of joy. |
08:22 — | 恨惡你的要披戴慚愧;惡人的帳棚必歸於無有。 Your enemies will be clothed in shame, and the tents of the wicked will be no more." |
省 思 語— | 我的生活是否扎根在神身上? |
省 思 語— | 植物的美麗顯現在它的葉子與果實上,但它的健康卻取決於根。 |
省 思 語— | 信心是生活的重心與根本。 |
省 思 語— | 我將信心的根基扎在哪裡?扎了多深?為何不能以外表來判斷人? |
