惡人的燈何嘗熄滅?患難何嘗臨到他們呢?神何嘗發怒,向他們分散災禍呢? 17 「Yet how often is the lamp of the wicked snuffed out? How often does calamity come upon them, the fate God allots in his anger?
你們說:神為惡人的兒女積蓄罪孽;我說:不如本人受報,好使他親自知道。 19 (It is said) God stores up a man's punishment for his sons. Let him repay the man himself, so that he will know it!
願他親眼看見自己敗亡,親自飲全能者的忿怒。 20 Let his own eyes see his destruction; let him drink of the wrath of the Almighty. 21:17-20 Verses 17 and 18 may be taken as exclamations and 19 and 20 as declarations.
就是惡人在禍患的日子得存留,在發怒的日子得逃脫。 30 that the evil man is spared from the day of calamity, that he is delivered from 21:30 Or ((man is reserved for the day of calamity, that he is brought forth to)) the day of wrath?
他要以谷中的土塊為甘甜;在他以先去的無數,在他以後去的更多。 33 The soil in the valley is sweet to him; all men follow after him, and a countless throng goes 21:33 Or ((as a countless throng went)) before him.
July 25 "What I do thou knowest not now, but thou shalt know hereafter." (John 13:7.) WE have only a partial view here of God's dealings, His half-completed, half-developed plan; but all will stand out in fair and graceful proportions in the great finished Temple of Eternity! Go, in the reign of Israel's greated king, to the heights of Lebanon. See that noble cedar, the pride of its compeers, an old wrestler with northern blasts! Summer loves to smile upon it, night spangle its feathery foliage with dewdrops, the birds nestle on its branches, the weary pilgrim or wandering shepherd reposes under its shadows from the midday heat or from the furious storm; but all at once it is marked out to fall; The aged denizen of the forest is doomed to succumb to the woodman's stroke! As we see the axe making its first gash on its gnarled trunk, then the noble limbs stripped of their branches, and at last the "Tree of God," as was its distinctive epithet, coming with a crash to the ground, we exclaim against the wanton destruction, the demolition of this proud pillar in the temple of nature. We are tempted to cry with the prophet, as if inviting the sympathy of every lowlier stem-invoking inanimate things to resent the affront- "Howl, fir tree; for the cedar has fallen!" But wait a little. Follow that gigantic trunk as the workmen of Hiram launch it down the mountain side; thence conveyed in rafts along the blue waters of the Mediterranean; and last of all, behold it set a glorious polished beam in the Temple of God. As you see its destination, placed in the very Holy of Holies, in the diadem of the Great King-say, can you grudge that "the crown of Lebanon" was despoiled, in order that this jewel might have so noble a setting? That cedar stood as a stately prop in Nature's sanctuary, but "the glory of the latter house was greater than the glory of the former!" How many of our souls are like these cedars of old! God's axes of trial have stripped and bared them. We see no reason for dealings so dark and mysterious, but He has a noble end and object in view; to set them as everlasting pillars and rafters in His Heavenly Zion; to make them a "crown of glory in the hand of the Lord, and a royal diadem in the hand of our God." ─Macduff. "I do not ask my cross to understand. My way to see- Better in darkness just to feel Thy hand, And follow Thee."
