W5 2013-08-30 箴言13 假作富足的，卻一無所有；裝作窮乏的，卻廣有財物。

假作富足的，卻一無所有

                

全新四年樂活讀經                                    

 

W5 2013-08-30 箴言13 
13:7 假作富足的，卻一無所有；裝作窮乏的，卻廣有財物。
13:8 人的資財是他生命的贖價；窮乏人卻聽不見威嚇的話。
13:9 義人的光明亮（原文是歡喜）；惡人的燈要熄滅。
13:10 驕傲只啟爭競；聽勸言的，卻有智慧。
13:11 不勞而得之財必然消耗；勤勞積蓄的，必見加增。

默想:我們對金錢的看法與如何使用它，反映出我們的生命。箴言中提到兩種人，一種人是假裝富有的人，這種人的心態，就是希望透過炫富，來得到別人的敬重。這種人自我的價值是建立在擁有物質的層面上，所以，他們會用超過自己能力的方式，來維持門面，希望別人因為看見他的財富而覺得他是一位成功、有價值的人。事實上這種人很大的一個部分是因為對自己的價值沒有信心。耶穌提醒我們「人的生命不在乎家道豐富」(路十二15)
另外一種人是裝作自己很窮，但是實際上卻很富有。事實上，一個人固然不必炫富，但是也不需裝窮。我們要能夠適當地管理、使用上帝給我們的財富。一個富有的人，不應該為了害怕用錢，而成為守財奴。也不該只為自己的享受而「天天奢華宴樂」。
保羅說「我知道怎樣處卑賤，也知道怎樣處豐富」一個真正富有的人，就是一個知道怎樣使用、管理上帝託付他責任的人。我們的信仰相信，富有的人除了自己適當的享受外，我們的心中，不應該只有自己，而是應當紀念那些有需要的人。如同耶穌對少年官所說的「你還缺少一件：去變賣你所有的，分給窮人，就必有財寶在天上；你還要來跟從我。」(可十21)也許我們不一定能夠真的變賣一切所有的，但是，我們的心中不能忘記窮人。這對每一個富有的人是重要的提醒。

W4 2013-08-29 箴言12 義人顧惜他牲畜的命；惡人的憐憫也是殘忍。

愚妄人所行的，在自己眼中看為正直。

                

全新四年樂活讀經                                    

 

W4 2013-08-29 箴言12 
12:10 義人顧惜他牲畜的命；惡人的憐憫也是殘忍。
12:11 耕種自己田地的，必得飽食；追隨虛浮的，卻是無知。
12:12 惡人想得壞人的網羅；義人的根得以結實。
12:13 惡人嘴中的過錯是自己的網羅；但義人必脫離患難。
12:14 人因口所結的果子，必飽得美福；人手所做的，必為自己的報應。
12:15 愚妄人所行的，在自己眼中看為正直；惟智慧人肯聽人的勸教。
12:16 愚妄人的惱怒立時顯露；通達人能忍辱藏羞。
12:17 說出真話的，顯明公義；作假見證的，顯出詭詐。
12:18 說話浮躁的，如刀刺人；智慧人的舌頭卻為醫人的良藥。
12:19 口吐真言，永遠堅立；舌說謊話，只存片時。
12:20 圖謀惡事的，心存詭詐；勸人和睦的，便得喜樂。

默想: 愚妄的人，自我感覺良好，常常認為別人是錯的，而自己的所做所為都是對的。所以愚妄人，聽不下別人的勸告。但是智慧的人，知道採納別人的意見，特別是當別人提出好的見解時，他能夠放下自己的堅持與身段，接納別人的意見。所以在這裡所說的愚妄與智慧兩種人，並不是指一個人的學問、智商、學歷，而是指一個人是否能夠有察納雅言的胸懷。
另外一方面智慧與愚妄也顯現在一個人的自我控制能力，有些人EQ高，在面對別人的批評、羞辱時，可以駕駑自己的情緒，這是智慧的人。但是愚妄的人就不是如此，面對別人不中聽的話語，他們的怒氣立即外顯出來，這種態度，其實對自己沒有好處，只是顯出這個人容易被激怒，情緒失控。
求神幫助我們，在我們的生命中，我們能夠聽下別人好意的勸言，也能懂得管理自己的情緒。
題目: 根據本章第15-16節，愚妄人與智慧通達人有何對比呢？

12:3 人靠惡行不能堅立；義人的根必不動搖。
A man shall not be established by wickedness: but the root of the righteous shall not be moved.
12:4 才德的婦人是丈夫的冠冕；貽羞的婦人如同朽爛在她丈夫的骨中。
A virtuous woman is a crown to her husband: but she that maketh ashamed is as rottenness in his bones.
12:5 義人的思念是公平；惡人的計謀是詭詐。
The thoughts of the righteous are right: but the counsels of the wicked are deceit.
12:6 惡人的言論是埋伏流人的血；正直人的口必拯救人。
The words of the wicked are to lie in wait for blood: but the mouth of the upright shall deliver them.
12:7 惡人傾覆，歸於無有；義人的家必站得住。
The wicked are overthrown, and are not: but the house of the righteous shall stand.
12:8 人必按自己的智慧被稱讚；心中乖謬的，必被藐視。
A man shall be commended according to his wisdom: but he that is of a perverse heart shall be despised. of a...: Heb. perverse of heart

The wicked is snared by the transgression of his lips: but the just shall come out of trouble. The wicked...: Heb. The snare of the wicked is in the transgression of lips
12:14 人因口所結的果子，必飽得美福；人手所做的，必為自己的報應。
A man shall be satisfied with good by the fruit of his mouth: and the recompence of a man's hands shall be rendered unto him.
12:15 愚妄人所行的，在自己眼中看為正直；惟智慧人肯聽人的勸教。
The way of a fool is right in his own eyes: but he that hearkeneth unto counsel is wise.
12:16 愚妄人的惱怒立時顯露；通達人能忍辱藏羞。
A fool's wrath is presently known: but a prudent man covereth shame. presently: Heb. in that day
12:17 說出真話的，顯明公義；作假見證的，顯出詭詐。
He that speaketh truth sheweth forth righteousness: but a false witness deceit.

12:21 義人不遭災害；惡人滿受禍患。
There shall no evil happen to the just: but the wicked shall be filled with mischief.
12:22 說謊言的嘴為耶和華所憎惡；行事誠實的，為他所喜悅。
Lying lips are abomination to the LORD: but they that deal truly are his delight.
12:23 通達人隱藏知識；愚昧人的心彰顯愚昧。
A prudent man concealeth knowledge: but the heart of fools proclaimeth foolishness.
12:24 殷勤人的手必掌權；懶惰的人必服苦。
The hand of the diligent shall bear rule: but the slothful shall be under tribute. slothful: or, deceitful
12:25 人心憂慮，屈而不伸；一句良言，使心歡樂。

W3 2013-08-28 箴言11 無智謀，民就敗落；謀士多，人便安居。

有施散的，卻更增添

                

全新四年樂活讀經                                    

 

 W3 2013-08-28 箴言11 
 11:14 無智謀，民就敗落；謀士多，人便安居。
11:15 為外人作保的，必受虧損；恨惡擊掌的，卻得安穩。
11:16 恩德的婦女得尊榮；強暴的男子得資財。
11:17 仁慈的人善待自己；殘忍的人擾害己身。
11:18 惡人經營，得虛浮的工價；撒義種的，得實在的果效。
11:19 恆心為義的，必得生命；追求邪惡的，必致死亡。
11:20 心中乖僻的，為耶和華所憎惡；行事完全的，為他所喜悅。
11:21 惡人雖然連手，必不免受罰；義人的後裔必得拯救。
11:22 婦女美貌而無見識，如同金環帶在豬鼻上。
11:23 義人的心願盡得好處；惡人的指望致干忿怒。
11:24 有施散的，卻更增添；有吝惜過度的，反致窮乏。
11:25 好施捨的，必得豐裕；滋潤人的，必得滋潤。
11:26 屯糧不賣的，民必咒詛他；情願出賣的，人必為他祝福。

11:30 義人所結的果子就是生命樹；有智慧的，必能得人。
11:31 看哪，義人在世尚且受報，何況惡人和罪人呢？ 

默想: 有時候，失去與獲得不是照我們的想像去定義的。有些人很害怕失去，想要擁有更多，而吝惜去給予。但是，這種作法，反而令他失去更多。箴言教導我們，在給予的學習上，我們要能夠願意付出。一個吝惜過度的人，不會因為這種態度而富有。 當紀念主耶穌的話，說：「施比受更為有福」。(徒二十35)在我們的信仰中，給予、分享、付出。一直都是一件很有福的事。我們的信仰傳統，就是把幫助人看成是一件重要，而且值得優先去做的事。求神幫助我們，經驗給予之後，我們所得的，越發加添。

 題目: 箴言11章24節說，有施散的，卻更增添；有吝惜過度的，反致窮乏。你對此有何看法呢？

11:4 發怒的日子資財無益；惟有公義能救人脫離死亡。

The righteousness of the upright shall deliver them: but transgressors shall be taken in their own naughtiness.
11:7 惡人一死，他的指望必滅絕；罪人的盼望也必滅沒。

11:8 義人得脫離患難，有惡人來代替他。

An hypocrite with his mouth destroyeth his neighbour: but through knowledge shall the just be delivered.

W2 2013-08-27 箴言10 心中智慧的，必受命令；口裡愚妄的，必致傾倒

愛能遮掩一切過錯

                

全新四年樂活讀經                                    

 

指斥褻慢人的，必受辱罵

W2 2013-08-27 箴言10 
10:8 心中智慧的，必受命令；口裡愚妄的，必致傾倒。
10:9 行正直路的，步步安穩；走彎曲道的，必致敗露。
10:10 以眼傳神的，使人憂患；口裡愚妄的，必致傾倒。
10:11 義人的口是生命的泉源；強暴蒙蔽惡人的口。
10:12 恨能挑啟爭端；愛能遮掩一切過錯。
10:13 明哲人嘴裡有智慧；無知人背上受刑杖。
10:14 智慧人積存知識；愚妄人的口速致敗壞。
10:15 富戶的財物是他的堅城；窮人的貧乏是他的敗壞。
10:16 義人的勤勞致生；惡人的進項致死（死：原文是罪）。
10:17 謹守訓誨的，乃在生命的道上；違棄責備的，便失迷了路。

默想: 恨能挑起爭端，愛能遮掩一切過錯。這裡的愛，不是說，我們愛一個人，所以就要遮掩他一切的過錯。而是因為愛，我們能夠包容一個人的過錯。同樣的，如果我們從心裡恨惡一個人，我們就會因為不喜歡這個人、討厭這個人，而挑起與這個人之間的爭端。但是，上帝要我們不是這樣，而是因為愛去包容那些傷害我們、中傷我們的人。這是一件不容易的事，因為我們比較容易做到，去愛那些愛我們的人，而不容易去愛那些傷害我們，當然也就不會去遮掩他們所犯的過錯。
如果我們愛那些愛我們的人，恨那些恨我們的人，那我們就與一般人沒有兩樣了，耶穌的教導，是「愛你的仇敵」。我們肯為那些得罪我們、傷害我們的人遮掩過錯嗎？如果我們做的到，那就是真的有上帝的愛了。

題目: 箴言10章12節說，愛能遮掩一切過錯。你對此有何想法呢？

 

10:1 所羅門的箴言：智慧之子使父親歡樂；愚昧之子叫母親擔憂。

Treasures of wickedness profit nothing: but righteousness delivereth from death.
10:3 耶和華不使義人受飢餓；惡人所欲的，他必推開。
The LORD will not suffer the soul of the righteous to famish: but he casteth away the substance of the wicked. the substance...: or, the wicked for their wickedness
10:4 手懶的，要受貧窮；手勤的，卻要富足。
He becometh poor that dealeth with a slack hand: but the hand of the diligent maketh rich.
10:5 夏天聚斂的，是智慧之子；收割時沉睡的，是貽羞之子。
He that gathereth in summer is a wise son: but he that sleepeth in harvest is a son that causeth shame.
10:6 福祉臨到義人的頭；強暴蒙蔽惡人的口。
Blessings are upon the head of the just: but violence covereth the mouth of the wicked.
10:7 義人的紀念被稱讚；惡人的名字必朽爛。
The memory of the just is blessed: but the name of the wicked shall rot.

W1 2013-08-26 箴言9 智慧建造房屋，鑿成七根柱子

全新四年樂活讀經                                    

 

指斥褻慢人的，必受辱罵

W1 2013-08-26 箴言9 
9:1 智慧建造房屋，鑿成七根柱子，
9:2 宰殺牲畜，調和旨酒，設擺筵席；
9:3 打發使女出去，自己在城中至高處呼叫，
9:4 說：誰是愚蒙人，可以轉到這裡來！又對那無知的人說：
9:5 你們來，吃我的餅，喝我調和的酒。
9:6 你們愚蒙人，要捨棄愚蒙，就得存活，並要走光明的道。
9:7 指斥褻慢人的，必受辱罵；責備惡人的，必被玷污。
9:8 不要責備褻慢人，恐怕他恨你；要責備智慧人，他必愛你。
9:9 教導智慧人，他就越發有智慧；指示義人，他就增長學問。
9:10 敬畏耶和華是智慧的開端；認識至聖者便是聰明。
9:11 你藉著我，日子必增多，年歲也必加添。
9:12 你若有智慧，是與自己有益；你若褻慢，就必獨自擔當。
9:13 愚昧的婦人喧嚷；她是愚蒙，一無所知。
9:14 她坐在自己的家門口，坐在城中高處的座位上，
9:15 呼叫過路的，就是直行其道的人，
9:16 說：誰是愚蒙人，可以轉到這裡來！又對那無知的人說：
9:17 偷來的水是甜的，暗吃的餅是好的。
9:18 人卻不知有陰魂在她那裡；她的客在陰間的深處。

默想: 人的指責，所希望帶來的結果，無非是希望一個人改正，而重新走在正確的路上。但對於褻慢人，指責與勸戒是沒有用的。相反的，越對這些人發出勸告，就越被憤恨，甚至激起他們的敵意，而處處與你作對，尋隙攻擊你。但是若是將勸戒用在智慧人的深上，他必反省，從而發現你的用心、善意，而感謝你對他的付出。
耶穌說：「不要把聖物給狗，也不要把你們的珍珠丟在豬前，恐怕他踐踏了珍珠，轉過來咬你們。」(太七6)我們不會真的把聖物給狗，也不會把真的珍珠丟在豬前。但是我們有可能把出於真心、愛人的勸告，放在褻慢人的面前，他們若的反應是踐踏了珍珠，轉過來咬我們，我們也不用太意外。

題目: 本章7-8節，對於是否要責備褻慢人，似乎有自相矛盾的說法，你對此有何想法呢？

 

9:1 智慧建造房屋，鑿成七根柱子，
Wisdom hath builded her house, she hath hewn out her seven pillars:
9:2 宰殺牲畜，調和旨酒，設擺筵席；
She hath killed her beasts; she hath mingled her wine; she hath also furnished her table. her beasts: Heb. her killing
9:3 打發使女出去，自己在城中至高處呼叫，
She hath sent forth her maidens: she crieth upon the highest places of the city,
9:4 說：誰是愚蒙人，可以轉到這裡來！又對那無知的人說：
Whoso is simple, let him turn in hither: as for him that wanteth understanding, she saith to him,
9:5 你們來，吃我的餅，喝我調和的酒。
Come, eat of my bread, and drink of the wine which I have mingled.
9:6 你們愚蒙人，要捨棄愚蒙，就得存活，並要走光明的道。
Forsake the foolish, and live; and go in the way of understanding.
9:7 指斥褻慢人的，必受辱罵；責備惡人的，必被玷污。
He that reproveth a scorner getteth to himself shame: and he that rebuketh a wicked man getteth himself a blot.
9:8 不要責備褻慢人，恐怕他恨你；要責備智慧人，他必愛你。
Reprove not a scorner, lest he hate thee: rebuke a wise man, and he will love thee.
9:9 教導智慧人，他就越發有智慧；指示義人，他就增長學問。
Give instruction to a wise man , and he will be yet wiser: teach a just man , and he will increase in learning.
9:10 敬畏耶和華是智慧的開端；認識至聖者便是聰明。
The fear of the LORD is the beginning of wisdom: and the knowledge of the holy is understanding.
9:11 你藉著我，日子必增多，年歲也必加添。
For by me thy days shall be multiplied, and the years of thy life shall be increased.
9:12 你若有智慧，是與自己有益；你若褻慢，就必獨自擔當。
If thou be wise, thou shalt be wise for thyself: but if thou scornest, thou alone shalt bear it .
9:13 愚昧的婦人喧嚷；她是愚蒙，一無所知。
A foolish woman is clamorous: she is simple, and knoweth nothing.
9:14 她坐在自己的家門口，坐在城中高處的座位上，
For she sitteth at the door of her house, on a seat in the high places of the city,
9:15 呼叫過路的，就是直行其道的人，
To call passengers who go right on their ways:
9:16 說：誰是愚蒙人，可以轉到這裡來！又對那無知的人說：
Whoso is simple, let him turn in hither: and as for him that wanteth understanding, she saith to him,
9:17 偷來的水是甜的，暗吃的餅是好的。
Stolen waters are sweet, and bread eaten in secret is pleasant. eaten...: Heb. of secrecies
9:18 人卻不知有陰魂在她那裡；她的客在陰間的深處。
But he knoweth not that the dead are there; and that her guests are in the depths of hell.

W5 2013-08-23 箴言8 在耶和華造化的起頭，在太初創造萬物之先，就有了我。

在太初創造萬物之先，就有了我。

                

全新四年樂活讀經                                    

 

W5 2013-08-23 箴言8 
8:22 在耶和華造化的起頭，在太初創造萬物之先，就有了我。
8:23 從亙古，從太初，未有世界以前，我已被立。
8:24 沒有深淵，沒有大水的泉源，我已生出。
8:25 大山未曾奠定，小山未有之先，我已生出。
8:26 耶和華還沒有創造大地和田野，並世上的土質，我已生出。
8:27 他立高天，我在那裡；他在淵面的周圍，劃出圓圈。
8:28 上使穹蒼堅硬，下使淵源穩固，
8:29 為滄海定出界限，使水不越過他的命令，立定大地的根基。
8:30 那時，我在他那裡為工師，日日為他所喜愛，常常在他面前踴躍，
8:31 踴躍在他為人預備可住之地，也喜悅住在世人之間。  

默想:智慧先存於這個世界之前，在萬有還沒有創立之前，就有了智慧。智慧與上帝一同創造這個世界，我們從箴言中，可以很明確地看到，上帝在創造這個世界之時，並不是「孤單」的。智慧在其中熱切參與，並扮演重要的角色，甚至智慧是扮演「工師」的角色，以活潑、積極的態度，參與在創造之中，智慧這樣的角色為「祂所喜愛」。
在一般基督教的理解中，這智慧是「三位一體」上帝其中的一位。許多人把智慧指向「聖子」，但是無論如何，這段智慧頌的經文，讓我們看到，智慧是超越時間限制的，也是每一個屬神的人要去認真追求、認識的。
 
題目: 根據本章描述，智慧在上帝創造宇宙過程中扮演什麼角色呢？

 

8:1 智慧豈不呼叫？聰明豈不發聲？
Doth not wisdom cry? and understanding put forth her voice?
8:2 她在道旁高處的頂上，在十字路口站立，
She standeth in the top of high places, by the way in the places of the paths.
8:3 在城門旁，在城門口，在城門洞，大聲說：
She crieth at the gates, at the entry of the city, at the coming in at the doors.
8:4 眾人哪，我呼叫你們，我向世人發聲。
Unto you, O men, I call; and my voice is to the sons of man.
8:5 說：愚蒙人哪，你們要會悟靈明；愚昧人哪，你們當心裡明白。
O ye simple, understand wisdom: and, ye fools, be ye of an understanding heart.
8:6 你們當聽，因我要說極美的話；我張嘴要論正直的事。
Hear; for I will speak of excellent things; and the opening of my lips shall be right things.
8:7 我的口要發出真理；我的嘴憎惡邪惡。
For my mouth shall speak truth; and wickedness is an abomination to my lips. an...: Heb. the abomination of my lips
8:8 我口中的言語都是公義，並無彎曲乖僻。
All the words of my mouth are in righteousness; there is nothing froward or perverse in them. froward: Heb. wreathed
8:9 有聰明的，以為明顯，得知識的，以為正直。
They are all plain to him that understandeth, and right to them that find knowledge.
8:10 你們當受我的教訓，不受白銀；寧得知識，勝過黃金。
Receive my instruction, and not silver; and knowledge rather than choice gold.
8:11 因為智慧比珍珠（或譯：紅寶石）更美；一切可喜愛的都不足與比較。
For wisdom is better than rubies; and all the things that may be desired are not to be compared to it.
8:12 我─智慧以靈明為居所，又尋得知識和謀略。
I wisdom dwell with prudence, and find out knowledge of witty inventions. prudence: or, subtilty
8:13 敬畏耶和華在乎恨惡邪惡；那驕傲、狂妄，並惡道，以及乖謬的口，都為我所恨惡。
The fear of the LORD is to hate evil: pride, and arrogancy, and the evil way, and the froward mouth, do I hate.
8:14 我有謀略和真知識；我乃聰明，我有能力。
Counsel is mine, and sound wisdom: I am understanding; I have strength.
8:15 帝王藉我坐國位；君王藉我定公平。
By me kings reign, and princes decree justice.
8:16 王子和首領，世上一切的審判官，都是藉我掌權。
By me princes rule, and nobles, even all the judges of the earth.
8:17 愛我的，我也愛他；懇切尋求我的，必尋得見。
I love them that love me; and those that seek me early shall find me.
8:18 豐富尊榮在我；恆久的財並公義也在我。
Riches and honour are with me; yea , durable riches and righteousness.
8:19 我的果實勝過黃金，強如精金；我的出產超乎高銀。
My fruit is better than gold, yea, than fine gold; and my revenue than choice silver.
8:20 我在公義的道上走，在公平的路中行，
I lead in the way of righteousness, in the midst of the paths of judgment: lead: or, walk
8:21 使愛我的，承受貨財，並充滿他們的府庫。
That I may cause those that love me to inherit substance; and I will fill their treasures.
8:22 在耶和華造化的起頭，在太初創造萬物之先，就有了我。
The LORD possessed me in the beginning of his way, before his works of old.
8:23 從亙古，從太初，未有世界以前，我已被立。
I was set up from everlasting, from the beginning, or ever the earth was.
8:24 沒有深淵，沒有大水的泉源，我已生出。
When there were no depths, I was brought forth; when there were no fountains abounding with water.
8:25 大山未曾奠定，小山未有之先，我已生出。
Before the mountains were settled, before the hills was I brought forth:
8:26 耶和華還沒有創造大地和田野，並世上的土質，我已生出。
While as yet he had not made the earth, nor the fields, nor the highest part of the dust of the world. fields: or, open places the highest...: or, the chief part
8:27 他立高天，我在那裡；他在淵面的周圍，劃出圓圈。
When he prepared the heavens, I was there: when he set a compass upon the face of the depth: a compass: or, a circle
8:28 上使穹蒼堅硬，下使淵源穩固，
When he established the clouds above: when he strengthened the fountains of the deep:
8:29 為滄海定出界限，使水不越過他的命令，立定大地的根基。
When he gave to the sea his decree, that the waters should not pass his commandment: when he appointed the foundations of the earth:
8:30 那時，我在他那裡為工師，日日為他所喜愛，常常在他面前踴躍，
Then I was by him, as one brought up with him : and I was daily his delight, rejoicing always before him;
8:31 踴躍在他為人預備可住之地，也喜悅住在世人之間。
Rejoicing in the habitable part of his earth; and my delights were with the sons of men.
8:32 眾子啊，現在要聽從我，因為謹守我道的，便為有福。
Now therefore hearken unto me, O ye children: for blessed are they that keep my ways.
8:33 要聽教訓就得智慧，不可棄絕。
Hear instruction, and be wise, and refuse it not.
8:34 聽從我、日日在我門口仰望、在我門框旁邊等候的，那人便為有福。
Blessed is the man that heareth me, watching daily at my gates, waiting at the posts of my doors.
8:35 因為尋得我的，就尋得生命，也必蒙耶和華的恩惠。
For whoso findeth me findeth life, and shall obtain favour of the LORD. obtain: Heb. bring forth
8:36 得罪我的，卻害了自己的性命；恨惡我的，都喜愛死亡。
But he that sinneth against me wrongeth his own soul: all they that hate me love death.
