神说、我们要照着我们的形像、按着我们的样式造人、使他们管理海里的鱼、空中的鸟、地上的牲畜、和全地、并地上所爬的一切昆虫。 神就照着自己的形像造人、乃是照着他的形像造男造女。 神就赐福给他们.又对他们说、要生养众多、遍满地面、治理这地.也要管理海里的鱼、空中的鸟.和地上各样行动的活物。 神说、看哪、我将遍地上一切结种子的菜蔬、和一切树上所结有核的果子、全赐给你们作食物。 至于地上的走兽、和空中的飞鸟、并各样爬在地上有生命的物、我将青草赐给他们作食物.事就这样成了。 神看着一切所造的都甚好.有晚上、有早晨、是第六日。

And God said, Let us make man in our image, after our likeness: and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth. So God created man in his own image, in the image of God created he him; male and female created he them. And God blessed them, and God said unto them, Be fruitful, and multiply, and replenish the earth, and subdue it: and have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over every living thing that moveth upon the earth. And God said, Behold, I have given you every herb bearing seed, which is upon the face of all the earth, and every tree, in the which is the fruit of a tree yielding seed; to you it shall be for meat. And to every beast of the earth, and to every fowl of the air, and to every thing that creepeth upon the earth, wherein there is life, I have given every green herb for meat: and it was so. And God saw every thing that he had made, and, behold, it was very good. And the evening and the morning were the sixth day.
在生活中默想 · 灵修解释 · Reflecting in daily life · Devotional interpretation
创世记 1 的结尾讲述人按神的形象受造,以及对受造世界的责任。它邀请我们同时认真看待人的尊严和管理世界的托付。 一件日用品坏了,我习惯马上买新的,却没有想过能否修理。管理受托之物可以从一个小物件开始。节制不是证明自己更好,而是认真对待已有资源。 今天的一小步:先了解修理是否安全可行,再决定怎样处理。 我的处境也牵连着别人。认真分辨谁需要被倾听、谁能提供支持,以及哪些边界需要被尊重。
English
The closing portion of Genesis 1 describes humanity in God's image and responsibility within creation. It invites attention to both human dignity and the task of caring for the world. An everyday item breaks, and I immediately think of replacement rather than repair. Stewardship can begin with a small object. Restraint is about treating resources carefully rather than proving superiority. A small step today: Check whether safe repair is feasible before deciding what to do. My situation also involves other people. Consider who needs to be heard, who can offer support, and which boundaries deserve respect.
