The ‘Illuminated’ Bible!
“被照明”的圣经！
From Spurgeon’s, “The Holy Ghost- the Great Teacher”
出自司布真的”圣灵-伟大的导师”
Do any of you have an ‘illuminated’ Bible at home?
你们中有人在家里有一本”被照明”的圣经吗？
“No,” says one, “I have a morocco Bible; I have a Polyglot Bible; I have a marginal reference Bible.”
“没有，”一个人说，”我有一本摩洛哥皮面的圣经；我有一本多种语言对照的圣经；我有一本带旁注的圣经。”
Ah! that is all very well, but have you an illuminated Bible?
啊！那都很好，但是你有一本”被照明”的圣经吗？
“Yes, I have a large family Bible with pictures in it.”
“是的，我有一本带插图的大家庭圣经。”
There is a picture of John the Baptist baptizing Christ by pouring water on his head, and many other nonsensical things; but that is not what I mean: have you an illuminated Bible?
里面有施洗约翰往基督头上浇水施洗的图片，还有许多其他荒谬的东西；但那不是我的意思：你有一本”被照明”的圣经吗？
“Yes, I have a Bible with splendid engravings in it.”
“是的，我有一本带精美雕刻插图的圣经。”
Yes; I know you may have; but have you an illuminated Bible?
是的；我知道你可能有；但你有一本”被照明”的圣经吗？
“I don’t understand what you mean by an illuminated Bible.”
“我不明白你说的’被照明’的圣经是什么意思。”
Well, it is the Christian man who has an illuminated Bible.
嗯，拥有”被照明”圣经的是基督徒。
He does not buy it illuminated originally, but when he reads it
他买来的时候圣经并不是被照明的，但当他阅读时，
“A glory gilds the sacred page,
Majestic like the sun
Which gives a light to every page,
-It gives, but burrows none.”
“荣光镀金圣洁页面，
威严如同太阳，
照亮每一页面，
施予光明，却不借他光。”
There is nothing like reading an illuminated Bible, beloved.
亲爱的，没有什么能比得上阅读被照明的圣经。
You may read the Bible to all eternity, and never learn anything by it, unless it is illuminated by the Spirit;
你可以永远读圣经，却可能一无所获，除非它被圣灵照明；
and then the words shine forth like stars!
然后文字就会如星辰般闪耀！
The book seems made of gold leaf; every single letter glitters like a diamond.
这本书仿佛由金箔制成；每一个字母都像钻石般闪烁。
Oh, it is a blessed thing to read an illuminated Bible lit up by the radiance of the Holy Spirit!
哦，阅读被圣灵光芒照亮的圣经是何等蒙福的事！
