Oct31【每日活水】 愈分享,愈丰盛

 

箴言11:16~31

16恩德的妇女得尊荣;
强暴的男子得资财。
17仁慈的人善待自己;
残忍的人扰害己身。
18恶人经营,得虚浮的工价;
撒义种的,得实在的果效。
19恒心为义的,必得生命;
追求邪恶的,必致死亡。
20心中乖僻的,为耶/和/华所憎恶;
行事完全的,为他所喜悦。
21恶人虽然连手,必不免受罚;
义人的后裔必得拯救。
22妇女美貌而无见识,
如同金环带在猪鼻上。
23义人的心愿尽得好处;
恶人的指望致干忿怒。
24有施散的,却更增添;
有吝惜过度的,反致穷乏。
25好施舍的,必得丰裕;
滋润人的,必得滋润。
26屯粮不卖的,民必咒诅他;
情愿出卖的,人必为他祝福。
27恳切求善的,就求得恩惠;
惟独求恶的,恶必临到他身。
28倚仗自己财物的,必跌倒;
义人必发旺,如青叶。
29扰害己家的,必承受清风;
愚昧人必作慧心人的仆人。
30义人所结的果子就是生命树;
有智慧的,必能得人。
31看哪,义人在世尚且受报,
何况恶人和罪人呢?
Hezekiah’s Illness
16A kindhearted woman gains honor,
but ruthless men gain only wealth.
17Those who are kind benefit themselves,
but the cruel bring ruin on themselves.
18A wicked person earns deceptive wages,
but the one who sows righteousness reaps a sure reward.
19Truly the righteous attain life,
but whoever pursues evil finds death.
20The Lord detests those whose hearts are perverse,
but he delights in those whose ways are blameless.
21Be sure of this: The wicked will not go unpunished,
but those who are righteous will go free.
22Like a gold ring in a pig’s snout
is a beautiful woman who shows no discretion.
23The desire of the righteous ends only in good,
but the hope of the wicked only in wrath.
24One person gives freely, yet gains even more;
another withholds unduly, but comes to poverty.
25A generous person will prosper;
whoever refreshes others will be refreshed.
26People curse the one who hoards grain,
but they pray God’s blessing on the one who is willing to sell.
27Whoever seeks good finds favor,
but evil comes to one who searches for it.
28Those who trust in their riches will fall,
but the righteous will thrive like a green leaf.
29Whoever brings ruin on their family will inherit only wind,
and the fool will be servant to the wise.
30The fruit of the righteous is a tree of life,
and the one who is wise saves lives.
31If the righteous receive their due on earth,
how much more the ungodly and the sinner!

灵/修指南

仁慈的人善待自己,使自己的灵魂得益处,而残忍的人则扰害自身,使自己的身 体和心灵都受损(17节)。人得生命还是得死亡,是由行义还是作恶决定的(19 节)。人生的智慧有时是反常识的、是吊诡的。 Bible 说,惜财吝啬的,反致穷 乏,而慷慨好施、乐于售粮的,反而增添钱财,多蒙祝福(24—26节)。最终,倚 靠财富的,必然跌倒,且要作智慧人的仆人(28—29 节),而义人要得着生命,也 要得人,并且要在地上受报(31 节)。也就是说,那些紧紧抓住自己的财宝不肯 放手的人,最终要变为贫穷,并走上行恶之路;而承认自己所拥有的一切都是从 SHEN 而来,并乐于分享的人,将结出愈加丰盛的生命果实。盼望我们今天也经历愈 分享愈丰盛的奇妙恩典。

内室dao告

求 SHEN 使我铭记愈分享愈丰盛的智慧,作一个慷慨好施、乐于助人的人。
