本週經文Scriptures:歷代志下20:6-9 Chronicles
6說:耶和華─我們列祖的神啊,你不是天上的神嗎?你不是萬邦萬國的主宰嗎?在你手中有大能大力,無人能抵擋你。7我們的神啊,你不是曾在你民以色列人面前驅逐這地的居民,將這地賜給你朋友亞伯拉罕的後裔永遠為業嗎?8他們住在這地,又為你的名建造聖所,說:9倘有禍患臨到我們,或刀兵災殃,或瘟疫饑荒,我們在急難的時候,站在這殿前向你呼求,你必垂聽而拯救,因為你的名在這殿裡。
6 and said: “LORD, the God of our ancestors, are you not the God who is in heaven? You rule over all the kingdoms of the nations. Power and might are in your hand, and no one can withstand you. 7 Our God, did you not drive out the inhabitants of this land before your people Israel and give it forever to the descendants of Abraham your friend? 8 They have lived in it and have built in it a sanctuary for your Name, saying, 9 ‘If calamity comes upon us, whether the sword of judgment, or plague or famine, we will stand in your presence before this temple that bears your Name and will cry out to you in our distress, and you will hear us and save us.’
