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?

Wisdom hath builded her house, she hath hewn out her seven pillars:

But he knoweth not that the dead are there; and that her guests are in the depths of hell.
