经文 · 和合本 1919 / KJV(公版) · Scripture · CUV 1919 / KJV (public domain)
我亲爱的弟兄们、这是你们所知道的.但你们各人要快快的听、慢慢的说、慢慢的动怒. 因为人的怒气、并不成就 神的义。 所以你们要脱去一切的污秽、和盈余的邪恶、存温柔的心领受那所栽种的道、就是能救你们灵魂的道。 只是你们要行道、不要单单听道、自己欺哄自己. 因为听道而不行道的、就像人对着镜子看自己本来的面目. 看见、走后、随即忘了他的相貌如何。 惟有详细察看那全备使人自由之律法的、并且时常如此、这人既不是听了就忘、乃是实在行出来、就在他所行的事上必然得福。
English
Wherefore, my beloved brethren, let every man be swift to hear, slow to speak, slow to wrath: For the wrath of man worketh not the righteousness of God. Wherefore lay apart all filthiness and superfluity of naughtiness, and receive with meekness the engrafted word, which is able to save your souls. But be ye doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving your own selves. For if any be a hearer of the word, and not a doer, he is like unto a man beholding his natural face in a glass: For he beholdeth himself, and goeth his way, and straightway forgetteth what manner of man he was. But whoso looketh into the perfect law of liberty, and continueth therein, he being not a forgetful hearer, but a doer of the work, this man shall be blessed in his deed.
在生活中默想 · 灵修解释 · Reflecting in daily life · Devotional interpretation
雅各书把听道与行道连接起来,先提到倾听、说话和怒气。默想这段,可以从检视自己在关系中如何听、如何回应开始。 朋友的好消息照出了我的失落,我不想敷衍祝福。可以同时承认自己的失落,并认真聆听朋友的喜乐。真实的祝福不要求先消除所有复杂感受。 今天的一小步:说一句具体的祝福,把自己的失落留给合适的私人谈话。 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
James connects hearing with doing, first addressing listening, speech, and anger. Reflection can begin by examining how we hear and respond in relationships. A friend's good news brings my own disappointment into view, and I do not want to offer empty congratulations. You can acknowledge disappointment while listening to a friend's joy. Sincere encouragement need not wait for every mixed feeling to vanish. A small step today: Offer a specific encouragement and bring your disappointment to a suitable private conversation. My situation also involves other people. Consider who needs to be heard, who can offer support, and which boundaries deserve respect.
