9:14 耶和華必顯現在他們以上;他的箭必射出像閃電。主耶和華必吹角,乘南方的旋風而行。
9:15 萬軍之耶和華必保護他們;他們必吞滅仇敵,踐踏彈石。他們必喝血吶喊,猶如飲酒;他們必像盛滿血的碗,又像壇的四角滿了血。
9:16 當那日,耶和華─他們的上帝必看他的民如群羊,拯救他們;因為他們必像冠冕上的寶石,高舉在他的地以上(或譯:在他的地上發光輝)。
9:17 他的恩慈何等大!他的榮美何其盛!五穀健壯少男;新酒培養處女。
Then the Lord will appear over them,
and his arrow will go forth like lightning;
the
Lord God will sound the trumpet
and will march forth in the whirlwinds of
the south.
The
Lord of hosts will protect them,
and they shall devour, and tread down the
sling stones,
and they shall drink and roar as if drunk
with wine,
and be full like a bowl,
drenched like the corners of the altar.
On
that day the Lord their God will save them,
as the flock of his people;
for like the jewels of a crown
they shall shine on his land.
For
how great is his goodness, and how great his beauty!
Grain shall make the young men flourish,
and new wine the young women.

這是多麼美的文字!尤其是在禮拜中誦讀時,讓握們不禁想到上帝的保守和應許,祂真的是眷顧人的上帝!
雖然有爭戰、有危險!但是上帝卻有拯救,並起還將榮光圍繞在祂的子民身上,正如先知所宣告:「當那日,耶和華─他們的上帝必看他的民如群羊,拯救他們;因為他們必像冠冕上的寶石,高舉在他的地以上(或譯:在他的地上發光輝)。他的恩慈何等大!他的榮美何其盛!五穀健壯少男;新酒培養處女。」
再一次讓我們覺得聖經真的是禮拜之書,我們在禮拜之中,真的要好好誦讀上帝的話!
