我又看見一個獸從海中上來,有十角七頭,在十角上戴著十個冠冕,七頭上有褻瀆的名號。 1 And the dragon (\f16 13:1 Some late manuscripts|i And I|d) stood on the shore of the sea. And I saw a beast coming out of the sea. He had ten horns and seven heads, with ten crowns on his horns, and on each head a blasphemous name.
我所看見的獸,形狀像豹,腳像熊的腳,口像獅子的口。那龍將自己的能力、座位、和大權柄都給了牠。 2 The beast I saw resembled a leopard, but had feet like those of a bear and a mouth like that of a lion. The dragon gave the beast his power and his throne and great authority.
我看見獸的七頭中,有一個似乎受了死傷,那死傷卻醫好了。全地的人都希奇跟從那獸, 3 One of the heads of the beast seemed to have had a fatal wound, but the fatal wound had been healed. The whole world was astonished and followed the beast.
又拜那龍─因為牠將自己的權柄給了獸,也拜獸,說:「誰能比這獸,誰能與牠交戰呢?」 4 Men worshiped the dragon because he had given authority to the beast, and they also worshiped the beast and asked, 「Who is like the beast? Who can make war against him?」
又賜給牠說誇大褻瀆話的口,又有權柄賜給牠,可以任意而行四十二個月。 5 The beast was given a mouth to utter proud words and blasphemies and to exercise his authority for forty-two months.
又任憑牠與聖徒爭戰,並且得勝;也把權柄賜給牠,制伏各族、各民、各方、各國。 7 He was given power to make war against the saints and to conquer them. And he was given authority over every tribe, people, language and nation.
凡住在地上、名字從創世以來沒有記在被殺之羔羊生命冊上的人,都要拜牠。 8 All inhabitants of the earth will worship the beast--all whose names have not been written in the book of life belonging to the Lamb that was slain from the creation of the world. (\f17 13:8 Or|i written from the creation of the world in the book of life belonging to the Lamb that was slain|d)
擄掠人的,必被擄掠;用刀殺人的,必被刀殺。聖徒的忍耐和信心就是在此。 10 If anyone is to go into captivity, into captivity he will go. If anyone is to be killed (\f18 13:10 Some manuscripts|i anyone kills|d) with the sword, with the sword he will be killed.\m This calls for patient endurance and faithfulness on the part of the saints.
牠在頭一個獸面前,施行頭一個獸所有的權柄,並且叫地和住在地上的人拜那死傷醫好的頭一個獸。 12 He exercised all the authority of the first beast on his behalf, and made the earth and its inhabitants worship the first beast, whose fatal wound had been healed.
牠因賜給牠權柄在獸面前能行奇事,就迷惑住在地上的人,說:「要給那受刀傷還活著的獸作個像。」 14 Because of the signs he was given power to do on behalf of the first beast, he deceived the inhabitants of the earth. He ordered them to set up an image in honor of the beast who was wounded by the sword and yet lived.
又有權柄賜給牠,叫獸像有生氣,並且能說話,又叫所有不拜獸像的人都被殺害。 15 He was given power to give breath to the image of the first beast, so that it could speak and cause all who refused to worship the image to be killed.
牠又叫眾人,無論大小、貧富、自主的、為奴的,都在右手上或在額上受一個印記。 16 He also forced everyone, small and great, rich and poor, free and slave, to receive a mark on his right hand or on his forehead,
在這裏有智慧:凡有聰明的,可以算計獸的數目;因為這是人的數目,它的數目是六百六十六。 18 This calls for wisdom. If anyone has insight, let him calculate the number of the beast, for it is man's number. His number is 666.
August 4 "And Jesus lifted up his eyes, and said, Father, I thank thee that thou heart me." (John 11:41.) THIS is a very strange and unusual order. Lazarus is still in the grave, and the thanksgiving precedes the miracle of resurrection. I thought that the thanksgiving would have risen when the great deed had been wrought, and Lazarus was restored to life again. But Jesus gives thanks for what He is about to receive. The gratitude breaks forth before the bounty has arrived, in the assurance that it is certainly on the way. The song of victory is sung before the battle has been fought. It is the sower who is singing the song of the harvest home. It is thanksgiving before the miracle! Who thinks of announcing a victory-psalm when the crusaders are just starting out for the field? Where can we hear the grateful song for the answer which has not yet been received? And after all, there is nothing strange or forced, or unreasonable in the Master's order. Praise is really the most vital perparatory ministry to the working of the miracles. Miracles are wrought by spiritual power. Spiritual power is always proportioned to our faith. —Dr. Jowett. PRAISE CHANGES THINGS Nothing so pleases God in connection with our prayer as our praise, and nothing so blesses the man who prays as the praise which he offers. I got a great blessing once in China in this connection. I had received bad and sad news from home, and deep shadows had covered my soul. I prayed, but the darkness did not vanish. I summoned myself to endure, but the darkness only deepened. Just then I went to an inland station and saw on the wall of the mission home these words: "Try Thanksgiving." I did, and in a moment every shadow was gone, not to return. Yes, the Psalmist was right, "It is a good thing to give thanks unto the Lord." ─Rev. Henry W. Frost.
