這事以後,耶和華在異象中有話對亞伯蘭說:「亞伯蘭,你不要懼怕!我是你的盾牌,必大大地賞賜你。」 1 After this, the word of the LORD came to Abram in a vision: 「Do not be afraid, Abram. I am your shield, 15:1 Or ((sovereign)) your very great reward.」 15:1 Or ((shield;)) / ((your reward will be very great))
亞伯蘭說:「主耶和華啊,我既無子,你還賜我甚麼呢?並且要承受我家業的是大馬士革人以利以謝。」 2 But Abram said, 「O Sovereign LORD, what can you give me since I remain childless and the one who will inherit 15:2 The meaning of the Hebrew for this phrase is uncertain. my estate is Eliezer of Damascus?」
耶和華又有話對他說:「這人必不成為你的後嗣;你本身所生的才成為你的後嗣。」 4 Then the word of the LORD came to him: 「This man will not be your heir, but a son coming from your own body will be your heir.」
於是領他走到外邊,說:「你向天觀看,數算眾星,能數得過來嗎?」又對他說:「你的後裔將要如此。」 5 He took him outside and said, 「Look up at the heavens and count the stars--if indeed you can count them.」 Then he said to him, 「So shall your offspring be.」
耶和華又對他說:「我是耶和華,曾領你出了迦勒底的吾珥,為要將這地賜你為業。」 7 He also said to him, 「I am the LORD, who brought you out of Ur of the Chaldeans to give you this land to take possession of it.」
他說:「你為我取一隻三年的母牛,一隻三年的母山羊,一隻三年的公綿羊,一隻斑鳩,一隻雛鴿。」 9 So the LORD said to him, 「Bring me a heifer, a goat and a ram, each three years old, along with a dove and a young pigeon.」
亞伯蘭就取了這些來,每樣劈開,分成兩半,一半對著一半地擺列,只有鳥沒有劈開。 10 Abram brought all these to him, cut them in two and arranged the halves opposite each other; the birds, however, he did not cut in half.
耶和華對亞伯蘭說:「你要的確知道,你的後裔必寄居別人的地,又服事那地的人;那地的人要苦待他們四百年。 13 Then the LORD said to him, 「Know for certain that your descendants will be strangers in a country not their own, and they will be enslaved and mistreated four hundred years.
到了第四代,他們必回到此地,因為亞摩利人的罪孽還沒有滿盈。」 16 In the fourth generation your descendants will come back here, for the sin of the Amorites has not yet reached its full measure.」
日落天黑,不料有冒煙的爐並燒著的火把從那些肉塊中經過。 17 When the sun had set and darkness had fallen, a smoking firepot with a blazing torch appeared and passed between the pieces.
當那日,耶和華與亞伯蘭立約,說:「我已賜給你的後裔,從埃及河直到幼發拉底大河之地, 18 On that day the LORD made a covenant with Abram and said, 「To your descendants I give this land, from the river 15:18 Or ((Wadi)) of Egypt to the great river, the Euphrates--
November 11 "He shall come down like rain upon the mown grass." (Psalm 72:6) AMOS speaks of the king's mowings. Our King has many scythes, and is perpetually mowing His lawns. The musical tinkle of the whetstone on the scythe portends the cutting down of myriads of green blades, daisies and other flowers. Beautiful as they were in the morning, within an hour or two they lie in long, faded rows. Thus in human life we make a brave show, before the scythe of pain, the shears of disappointment, the sickle of death. There is no method of obtaining a velvety lawn but by repeated mowings; and there is no way of developing tenderness, evenness, sympathy, but by the passing of God's scythes. How constantly the Word of God compares man to grass, and His glory to its flower! But when grass is mown, and all the tender shoots are bleeding, and desolation reigns where flowers were bursting, it is the most acceptable time for showers of rain falling soft and warm. O soul, thou hast been mown! Time after time the King has come to thee with His sharp scythe. Do not dread the scythe-it is sure to be followed by the shower. -F. B. Meyer. "When across the heart deep waves of sorrow Break, as on a dry and barren shore; When hope glistens with no bright tomorrow, And the storm seems sweeping evermore; "When the cup of every earthly gladness Bears no taste of the life-giving stream; And high hopes, as though to mock our sadness,, Fade and die as in some fitful dream, "Who shall hush the weary spirit's chiding? Who the aching void within shall fill? Who shall whisper of a peace abiding, And each surging billow calmly still? "Only He whose wounded heart was broken With the bitter cross and thorny crown; Whose dear love glad words of joy had spoken, Who His life for us laid meekly down. "Blessed Healer, all our burdens lighten; Give us peace, Thine own sweet peace, we pray! Keep us near Thee till the morn shall brighten, And all the mists and shadows flee away!"
