該得的與不該得的常常需要智慧分辨
而該給的與不該給的也是亦然
求神給予你我智慧
欣然接受也樂意拒絕
無私分享也於公處之
如同亞伯蘭般的活在神的智慧之中
創世記
14:17 亞伯蘭殺敗基大老瑪和與他同盟的王回來的時候,所多瑪王出來,在沙微谷迎接他;沙微谷就是王谷。
After his return from the defeat of Ched-or-lao'mer and the kings who were with him, the king of Sodom went out to meet him at the Valley of Shaveh (that is, the King's Valley).
14:18 又有撒冷王麥基洗德帶著餅和酒出來迎接;他是至高 神的祭司。
And Mel-chiz'edek king of Salem brought out bread and wine; he was priest of God Most High.
14:19 他為亞伯蘭祝福,說:「願天地的主、至高的 神賜福與亞伯蘭!
And he blessed him and said, "Blessed be Abram by God Most High, maker of heaven and earth;
14:20 至高的 神把敵人交在你手裡,是應當稱頌的!」亞伯蘭就把所得的拿出十分之一來,給麥基洗德。
and blessed be God Most High, who has delivered your enemies into your hand!"
14:21 所多瑪王對亞伯蘭說:「你把人口給我,財物你自己拿去吧!」
And the king of Sodom said to Abram, "Give me the persons, but take the goods for yourself."
14:22 亞伯蘭對所多瑪王說:「我已經向天地的主─至高的 神耶和華起誓:
But Abram said to the king of Sodom, "I have sworn to the LORD God Most High, maker of heaven and earth,
14:23 凡是你的東西,就是一根線、一根鞋帶,我都不拿,免得你說:『我使亞伯蘭富足!』
that I would not take a thread or a sandal-thong or anything that is yours, lest you should say, `I have made Abram rich.'
14:24 只有僕人所吃的,並與我同行的亞乃、以實各、幔利所應得的分,可以任憑他們拿去。」
I will take nothing but what the young men have eaten, and the share of the men who went with me; let Aner, Eshcol, and Mamre take their share."
