第三十三章
1禍哉!你這毀滅人的,自己倒不被毀滅;行事詭詐的,人倒不以
詭詐待你。你毀滅罷休了,自己必被毀滅;你行完了詭詐,人必以
詭詐待你。2耶和華啊,求你施恩於我們,我們等候你。求你每早
晨作我們的膀臂,遭難的時候為我們的拯救。3喧嚷的響聲一發,
眾民奔逃;你一興起,列國四散。4你們所擄的必被斂盡,好像螞
蚱吃(註:原文作“斂”)盡禾稼;人要蹦在其上,好像蝗蟲一
樣。5耶和華被尊崇,因他居在高處,他以公平公義充滿錫安。
6你一生一世必得安穩,有豐盛的救恩並智慧和知識,你以敬畏耶
和華為至寶。

默想:
1.神永遠都是我們穩妥的保障,“他永遠保護他的子民,賜給他
們智慧和見識。”(現中譯本)。但是我們必須用鑰匙來開啟
這個寶藏,來享受其中的豐富;第6節接著說“敬畏上主就是
他們最大的財產”,NIV譯本作:“敬畏耶和華就是這寶藏的
鑰匙”。

2.“敬畏”耶和華是對神的虔敬而生尊重的態度,這使得我們隨
時都察覺祂的臨在。我們意識到神的能力與權柄,使我們在最
不安的情況下,仍然有信心。

3.你“敬畏”神嗎?近來,你對神的態度如何影響你的生活?

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 33
1 Woe to you, destroyer, you who have not been destroyed! Woe to you,
betrayer, you who have not been betrayed! When you stop destroying, you
will be destroyed; when you stop betraying, you will be betrayed.
2 LORD, be gracious to us; we long for you. Be our strength every morning,
our salvation in time of distress.3 At the uproar of your army, the peoples
flee; when you rise up, the nations scatter. 4 Your plunder, O nations,
is harvested as by young locusts; like a swarm of locusts people pounce on
it.5 The LORD is exalted, for he dwells on high; he will fill Zion with his
justice and righteousness.6 He will be the sure foundation for your times,
a rich store of salvation and wisdom and knowledge; the fear of the LORD
is the key to this treasure.

Meditation
1.God is a sure foundation for every time, “a rich store of salvation
and wisdom and knowledge”. But we must use a key to open that
storehouse, to enjoy its bounty. Verse 6 says, “The fear of the Lord
is the key to this treasure”.

2.The “fear” of God is a reverential awe that keeps us aware of him at
all times. Our awareness that God is, and that he is sovereign, gives
us confidence even in the most uncertain of times.

3.Do you “fear” God? How has your attitude of God impacted your
life lately?

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.
