他們心裏思想:他們的家室必永存,住宅必留到萬代;他們以自己的名稱自己的地。 11 Their tombs will remain their houses 49:11 Septuagint and Syriac; Hebrew ((In their thoughts their houses will remain)) forever, their dwellings for endless generations, though they had 49:11 Or ((for they have)) named lands after themselves.
但人居尊貴中不能長久,如同死亡的畜類一樣。 12 But man, despite his riches, does not endure; he is 49:12 Hebrew; Septuagint and Syriac read verse 12 the same as verse 20. like the beasts that perish.
他們如同羊群派定下陰間;死亡必作他們的牧者。到了早晨,正直人必管轄他們;他們的美容必被陰間所滅,以致無處可存。 14 Like sheep they are destined for the grave, 49:14 Hebrew ((Sheol)); also in verse 15 and death will feed on them. The upright will rule over them in the morning; their forms will decay in the grave, 49:14 Hebrew ((Sheol)); also in verse 15 far from their princely mansions.
August 24 "I have all, and abound." (Phil. 4:18.) IN one of my garden books there is a chapter with a very interesting heading, "Flowers that Grow in the Gloom." It deals with those patches in a garden which never catch the sunlight. And my guide tells me the sort of flowers which are not afraid of these dingy corners─may rather like them and flourish in them. And there are similar things in the world of the spirit. They come out when material circumstances become stern and severs. They grow in the gloom. How can we otherwise explain some of the experiences of the Apostle Paul? Here he is in captivity at Rome. The supreme mission of his life appears to be broken. But it is just in this besetting dinginess that flowers begin to show their faces in bright and fascinating glory. He may have seen them before, growing in the open road, but never as they now appeared in imcomparable strength and beauty. Words of promise opened out their treasures as he had never seen them before. Among those treasures were such wonderful things as the grace of Christ, the love of Christ, the joy and peace of Christ; and it seemed as though they needed an "encircling gloom" to draw out their secret and their inner glory. At any rate the realm of gloom became the home of revelation, and Paul began to realize as never before the range and wealth of his spiritual inheritance. Who has not known men and women who, when they arrive at seasons of gloom and solitude, put on strength and hopefulness like a robe? You may imprison such folk where you please; but you shut up their treasure with them. You cannot shut it out. "You may make their material lot a desert, but "the wilderness and the solitary place shall be glad, and the desert shall rejoice and blossom as the rose." ─Dr. Jowett. "Every flower, even the fairest, has its shadow beneath it as it swings in the sunlight." Where there is much light there is much shade.
