旧约 - 弥迦书(Micah)第2章

Woe to them that devise iniquity, and work evil upon their beds! when the morning is light, they practise it, because it is in the power of their hand.
And they covet fields, and take them by violence; and houses, and take them away: so they oppress a man and his house, even a man and his heritage.
Therefore thus saith the LORD; Behold, against this family do I devise an evil, from which ye shall not remove your necks; neither shall ye go haughtily: for this time is evil.
In that day shall one take up a parable against you, and lament with a doleful lamentation, and say, We be utterly spoiled: he hath changed the portion of my people: how hath he removed it from me! turning away he hath divided our fields.
Therefore thou shalt have none that shall cast a cord by lot in the congregation of the LORD.
Prophesy ye not, say they to them that prophesy: they shall not prophesy to them, that they shall not take shame.
O thou that art named the house of Jacob, is the spirit of the LORD straitened? are these his doings? do not my words do good to him that walketh uprightly?
Even of late my people is risen up as an enemy: ye pull off the robe with the garment from them that pass by securely as men averse from war.
The women of my people have ye cast out from their pleasant houses; from their children have ye taken away my glory for ever.
Arise ye, and depart; for this is not your rest: because it is polluted, it shall destroy you, even with a sore destruction.
If a man walking in the spirit and falsehood do lie, saying, I will prophesy unto thee of wine and of strong drink; he shall even be the prophet of this people.
I will surely assemble, O Jacob, all of thee; I will surely gather the remnant of Israel; I will put them together as the sheep of Bozrah, as the flock in the midst of their fold: they shall make great noise by reason of the multitude of men.
The breaker is come up before them: they have broken up, and have passed through the gate, and are gone out by it: and their king shall pass before them, and the LORD on the head of them.
弥迦书第二章   第 2 章 

  弥 2:1-2> 贪心会变为行动!在我也是这样吗? 

  2:1-2 弥迦的话是针对那些在夜间计划恶行,早上一起来就去干的人。一个人的思想和计划能够反映出他的品格。当我们躺下时会想些什么?是不是满脑子的贪念或想踩着别人来达到自己的目的?邪恶的想法会引致邪恶的行动。 

  弥 2:5> 分地跟我有关系吗?原来是…… 

  2:5 那些压迫别人的人会发现,自己搬起的石头砸的原来是自己的脚。到最后分土地的时候,也没有他们的分,因为他们连一个活着的亲戚都没有了。 

  弥 2:6-7> 埋怨神,我有时也会…… 

  2:6-7 这些信息看来很严厉,但请记住,神并不是要报复以色列,而是要使他们回转归向神。百姓排斥真理和正义,所以要受到严厉的教训。儿童常认为老师太严厉了,殊不知这能帮助他们走向正确的方向。如果我们只想听神安慰的信息,我们就会失去神给我们的东西。神向我们说话,我们就要听。有时候的信息令人难以接受,但我们还是要听。 

  弥迦对不公义的指控 

  弥 2:11> 是爱听悦耳的假话,还是刺耳的真话,这── 

  2:11 假先知只讲百姓喜欢听的话,所以百姓很喜欢他们。弥迦的话就是针对那些鼓励人们享受罪中之乐的假先知的。讲员若在讲道中不提信徒要按神旨意去行,反而说贪心和淫念甚至对人有好处,他兴许反会受欢迎。但一位真正属神的教师,不管听众喜欢听什么,他都只讲真理。 

  弥 2:12-13> “他们的王”是地上的君王,还是…… 

  2:12-13 弥迦预言了两件大事:犹大从受禁锢的巴比伦中获释放;当弥赛亚再来的时候,所有的信徒要相聚。神给了他各种未来事件的异象,但并不一定给他觉察这些事件何时发生的能力。举例来说,他看不到从被掳至巴比伦到弥赛亚来临之间有多长时间,但却清楚地看到弥赛亚将要来临。这个预言的目的并不在于预告这事件究竟何时发生,而是说这事件一定要发生。这个预言给了人们希望,并帮助他们脱离罪恶。──《灵修版圣经注释》
