尼希米的祷告
1以下是哈迦利亚的儿子尼希米的记述.
波斯王亚达薛西二十年基斯流月1:1 “基斯流月”即希伯来历的九月,阳历是十一月中旬到十二月中旬.,我在书珊城里. 2从犹大来了我的一个兄弟哈拿尼和一些人,我问他们有关从流亡之地归回的犹太余民和耶路撒冷的情况. 3他们回答说:“那些从流亡之地归回犹大省的人深陷苦难,饱受凌辱.耶路撒冷的城墙已经倒塌,城门也被烧毁.”
4我一听见这消息,就坐下痛哭,悲伤了好几天.我在天上的上帝面前禁食祷告,说:
5“天上的上帝耶和华啊,你是伟大而可畏的上帝,你向爱你,守你诫命的人守约,施慈爱. 6仆人在你面前昼夜为你的众仆人以色列民祈祷,求你睁眼察看,侧耳倾听.我承认以色列人向你所犯的罪,以及我和我的家族所犯的罪. 7我们行事败坏,没有遵守你赐给你仆人摩西的诫命,律例和典章. 8求你顾念你对你仆人摩西所说的话,‘如果你们不忠,我必把你们驱散到列邦中. 9但如果你们转向我,谨遵我的诫命,即使你们流落天涯,我也必从那里把你们召集到我选为我名所在之地.’ 10我们是你的仆人,你的子民,是你用大能大力救赎的. 11主啊,求你侧耳听你仆人的祷告,垂听那些喜爱敬畏你名的众仆人的祈求,使你仆人今天亨通,在王面前蒙恩.”
我是王的侍酒总管.
