第十四章
1 愚頑人心裡說：“沒有神。”他們都是邪惡，行了可憎惡的事；沒有一個人行善。
2 耶和華從天上垂看世人，要看有明白的沒有，有尋求神的沒有。
3 他們都偏離正路，一同變為污穢；並沒有行善的，連一個也沒有！
4 作孽的都沒有知識嗎？他們吞吃我的百姓如同吃飯一樣，並不求告耶和華。
5 他們在那裡大大地害怕，因為神在義人的族類中。
6 你們叫困苦人的謀算變為羞辱，然而耶和華是他的避難所。
7 但願以色列的救恩從錫安而出，耶和華救回他被擄的子民。那時，雅各要快樂，以色列要歡喜。
默想：
1.希伯來文的愚頑人一詞，是指那些將心靈對神封鎖的人，他們
的生命充滿了邪惡、不道德。這正如保羅在羅馬書第一章的描
述：任何不承認神的人，都會在道德上愚頑、敗壞，作出邪惡
的事來。
2.當愚頑人對神說“不”時，他們其實是在說，他們比神知道的
更多，比神更有能力。因此，他們將自己隔絕在神所應許的豐
盛生命和祝福之外。
3.一個人所能作最愚蠢的事，就是把神隔絕在他生活之外。想
想，在你的親朋中，有什麼人是在躲避、否認神的？為他們禱
告，求神光照他們，能知道並經歷神對他們的愛。並求神幫助
你，成為這一事實的活見證。
禱告與筆錄：
繼續安靜在神面前，與神對話，並聆聽祂對我說的話。將心中的思
想（心得），或是與神的禱告，記錄在「靈程筆記簿」上面。
Chapter 14
1 The fool says in his heart, “There is no God.”
They are corrupt, their deeds are vile; there is no one who does good.
2 The LORD looks down from heaven on all mankind
to see if there are any who understand, any who seek God.
3 All have turned away, all have become corrupt;
there is no one who does good, not even one.
4 Do all these evildoers know nothing?
They devour my people as though eating bread; they never call on the LORD.
5 But there they are, overwhelmed with dread,
for God is present in the company of the righteous.
6 You evildoers frustrate the plans of the poor, but the LORD is their refuge.
7 Oh, that salvation for Israel would come out of Zion!
When the LORD restores his people, let Jacob rejoice and Israel be glad!
Meditation
1. The Hebrew word for “fool” describes a person whose heart is
closed to God and whose life is characterized by gross immorality.
It reminds us of Paul’s teaching that anyone who does not acknowledge
God will become corrupt and does “vile” deeds (Rom 1).
2. When the fools say “No” to God, they are actually telling God that
they know better and are more powerful than God. Thus, they are
cutting themselves off from the abundant life and blessings God
intends to give them.
3. The most stupid thing a person can do is to keep God outside of his
life. Think those in your family and friends who are avoiding or
denying God. Pray for them that God will enlighten them to know
and experience God’s love for them. Ask that God will make you a
living testimony to this truth.
Prayer & Journaling:
Stay with God for a little longer. Continue to converse with God and listen
to what he wants to tell me. Then write down any thought and/or prayer
in the 2012 “Spiritual Journal” book.
