QT:救恩的方舟--神的約定(創世記06:11—06:22)
[生命泉源]
06:11 — | 世界在神面前敗壞,地上滿了強暴。 Now the earth was corrupt in God's sight and was full of violence. |
06:12 — | 神觀看世界,見是敗壞了;凡有血氣的人在地上都敗壞了行為。 God saw how corrupt the earth had become, for all the people on earth had corrupted their ways. |
06:13 — | 神就對挪亞說:「凡有血氣的人,他的盡頭已經來到我面前;因為地上滿了他們的強暴,我要把他們和地一併毀滅。 So God said to Noah, "I am going to put an end to all people, for the earth is filled with violence because of them. I am surely going to destroy both them and the earth. |
06:14 — | 你要用歌斐木造一隻方舟,分一間一間地造,裏外抹上松香。 So make yourself an ark of cypress wood; make rooms in it and coat it with pitch inside and out. |
06:15 — | 方舟的造法乃是這樣:要長三百肘,寬五十肘,高三十肘。 This is how you are to build it:The ark is to be 450 feet long, 75 feet wide and 45 feet high. |
06:16 — | 方舟上邊要留透光處,高一肘。方舟的門要開在旁邊。方舟要分上、中、下三層。 Make a roof for it and finish the ark to within 18 inches of the top. Put a door in the side of the ark and make lower, middle and upper decks. |
06:17 — | 看哪,我要使洪水氾濫在地上,毀滅天下;凡地上有血肉、有氣息的活物,無一不死。 I am going to bring floodwaters on the earth to destroy all life under the heavens, every creature that has the breath of life in it. Everything on earth will perish. |
06:18 — | 我卻要與你立約;你同你的妻,與兒子兒婦,都要進入方舟。 But I will establish my covenant with you, and you will enter the ark--you and your sons and your wife and your sons' wives with you. |
06:19 — | 凡有血肉的活物,每樣兩個,一公一母,你要帶進方舟,好在你那裏保全生命。 You are to bring into the ark two of all living creatures, male and female, to keep them alive with you. |
06:20 — | 飛鳥各從其類,牲畜各從其類,地上的昆蟲各從其類,每樣兩個,要到你那裏,好保全生命。 Two of every kind of bird, of every kind of animal and of every kind of creature that moves along the ground will come to you to be kept alive. |
06:21 — | 你要拿各樣食物積蓄起來,好作你和他們的食物。」 You are to take every kind of food that is to be eaten and store it away as food for you and for them." |
06:22 — | 挪亞就這樣行。凡神所吩咐的,他都照樣行了。 Noah did everything just as God commanded him. |
省 思 語— | 為了讓「凡神所吩咐的都照樣行了」成為我的告白,今天我要捨棄什麼? |
省 思 語— | 當我們順服的時候,神就會指導我們何時該走、何時該停。 |
