Sep 11【每/日/活/水】使全地都得福

 

以赛亚书19:16~25

16 到那日,埃/及人必像妇人一样,他们必因万军之耶和华在埃/及以上所抡的手,战兢惧怕。

17 犹大地必使埃/及惊恐,向谁提起犹大地,谁就惧怕。这是因万军之耶和华向埃及所定的旨/意。

18 当那日,埃及地必有五城的人说迦南的方言,又指着万军之耶和华起誓。有一城必称为「灭/亡/城」。

19 当那日,在埃及地中必有为耶和华筑的一座坛;在埃及的边界上必有为耶和华立的一根柱。

20 这都要在埃及地为万军之耶和华作记号和证据。埃及人因为受人的欺/压哀求耶和华,他就差遣一位救主作护卫者,拯救他们。

21 耶和华必被埃及人所认识。在那日,埃及人必认识耶和华,也要献/祭/物和供/物敬拜他,并向耶和华许愿还愿。

22 耶和华必击打埃及,又击打又医治,埃及人就归向耶和华。他必应允他们的祷告,医治他们。

23 当那日,必有从埃及通亚述去的大道。亚述人要进入埃及,埃及人也进入亚述;埃及人要与亚述人一同敬拜耶和华。

24 当那日,以色列必与埃及、亚述三国一律,使地上的人得福;

25 因为万军之耶和华赐福给他们,说:「埃及-我的百姓,亚述-我手的工作,以色列-我的产业,都有福了!」

16 In that day the Egyptians will become weaklings. They will shudder with fear at the uplifted hand that the Lord Almighty raises against them.

17 And the land of Judah will bring terror to the Egyptians; everyone to whom Judah is mentioned will be terrified, because of what the Lord Almighty is planning against them.

18 In that day five cities in Egypt will speak the language of Canaan and swear allegiance to the Lord Almighty. One of them will be called the City of the Sun.

19 In that day there will be an altar to the Lord in the heart of Egypt, and a monument to the Lord at its border.

20 It will be a sign and witness to the Lord Almighty in the land of Egypt. When they cry out to the Lord because of their oppressors, he will send them a savior and defender, and he will rescue them.

21 So the Lord will make himself known to the Egyptians, and in that day they will acknowledge the Lord. They will wor/ship with sacri/fices and gra/in offerings; they will make vows to the Lord and keep them.

22 The Lord will strike Egypt with a plague; he will strike them and heal them. They will turn to the Lord, and he will respond to their pleas and heal them.

23 In that day there will be a highway from Egypt to Assyria. The Assyrians will go to Egypt and the Egyptians to Assyria. The Egyptians and Assyrians will worship together.

24 In that day Israel will be the third, along with Egypt and Assyria, a blessing on the earth.

25 The Lord Almighty will bless them, saying, “Blessed be Egypt my people, Assyria my handiwork, and Israel my inheritance.”

万军之耶和华挥手攻击(16节):生动地描绘出神对历史的介入与掌理。
太阳城 (18节):崇拜太阳神的受咒/诅之城,该城将因神的恩典得救。
柱子(19节):本意指纪念碑,这里包含有宗/教意味,用作神的领土之标记。
耶和华就被埃及所认识……埃及人要认识耶和华(21节):是神自己让人认识神,靠着人的能力绝对无法认识神。

灵修指南

以赛亚在预言埃及的恢复时,反复六次用到“那日”一词。到那日,埃及要因神的大能而战兢惧怕 (16节);埃及地将有五个城市说迦南的语言,并指着耶和华起誓 (18节);在埃及地将有献给耶和华的祭/坛,边界上将有为耶和华而立的柱子(19节):埃及百姓将哀求耶和华,耶和华将差遣一位救/主作护卫者拯救他们(20节)。在那日,埃及和亚述要一同敬拜神,与以色列一起使地上的人得福(24节),神要称以色列的仇敌埃及和亚述为“我的百姓”和“我手的工作”,将他们列为与以色列同等 (25节),这显明神愿意并等候全地都归向主。盼望本为可怒之子的我们为成为神的百姓而献上感恩,并将TA的救/恩传扬出去。
 

内室祷告

求神使我为神的医治和救/恩献上感恩,并将所领受的恩典和福分传扬出去。
