属天的奥秘 第8858节

（一滴水译，2018-2022）

　　8858.一个人的整个人品取决于他生活的指导原则；他凭这个原则而有别于其他人。若他是良善的，他的天堂便照这良善而形成；若他是邪恶的，他的地狱便照这邪恶而形成。因为它构成他真实的意愿，因而构成他生命的真实存在，死后无法改变。由此可见一个重生之人的生命是何性质，一个未重生之人的生命又是何性质。

Potts(1905-1910) 8858

8858. A man is wholly such as is the ruling principle of his life; by this he is distinguished from others; according to this is formed his heaven if he is good, and his hell if he is evil; for it is his veriest will, and thus the very being of his life, which cannot be changed after death. From all this it is evident what is the nature of the life of one who is regenerate, and what is the nature of the life of one who is not regenerate. EXODUS 20

1. And God spake all these words, saying, 2. I am Jehovah thy God, who brought thee forth out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of servants. 3. Thou shalt have no other gods before My faces. 4. Thou shalt not make unto thee a graven image, nor any likeness, of that which is in the heavens above, or that which is in the earth beneath, or that which is in the waters under the earth:

5. Thou shalt not bow down thyself to them, nor serve them; for I Jehovah thy God am a zealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the sons, upon the thirds and upon the fourths of them that hate Me:

6. And doing mercy to thousands of them that love Me and keep My commandments. 7. Thou shalt not take the name of Jehovah thy God in vain; for Jehovah will not hold him guiltless that taketh His name in vain. 8. Remember the Sabbath day, to keep it holy. 9. Six days shalt thou labor, and do all thy work:

10. And the seventh day is the Sabbath to Jehovah thy God; thou shalt not do any work, thou, and thy son, and thy daughter, thy manservant, and thy maidservant, and thy beast, and thy sojourner who is in thy gates:

11. For in six days Jehovah made heaven and earth, the sea, and all that is in them, and rested in the seventh day; wherefore Jehovah blessed the Sabbath day, and hallowed it. 12. Honor thy father and thy mother, that thy days may be prolonged upon the land which Jehovah thy God giveth thee. 13.* Thou shalt not kill. Thou shalt not commit adultery. Thou shalt not steal. Thou shalt not answer against thy neighbor the witness of a lie. 14. Thou shalt not covet thy neighbor's house, thou shalt not covet thy neighbor's wife, and his manservant, and his maidservant, and his ox, and his ass, and anything that is thy neighbor's. 15. And all the people saw the voices, and the torches, and the voice of the trumpet, and the mountain smoking; and the people saw, and they quaked, and stood afar off. 16. And they said unto Moses, Speak thou with us, and we will hear; and let not God speak with us, lest perchance we die. 17. And Moses said unto the people, Fear not; because God is come to tempt you, and that the fear of Him may be before your faces, that ye sin not. 18. And the people stood afar off, and Moses came near unto the thick darkness where God was. 19. And Jehovah said unto Moses, Thus shalt thou say unto the sons of Israel, Ye have seen that I have spoken with you from heaven. 20. Ye shall not make with Me gods of silver and gods of gold, ye shall not make unto you. 21. An altar of ground thou shalt make to Me, and shalt sacrifice thereon thy burnt-offerings, and thy thank-offerings, thy flocks, and thy herds; in every place where I shall put the memory of My name, I will come unto thee, and I will bless thee. 22. And if thou make Me an altar of stones, thou shalt not build it of hewn stones; for if thou move thy tool upon it, thou wilt profane it. 23. And thou shalt not go up on steps unto Mine altar, that thy nakedness be not uncovered upon it. * The numbering here followed by Swedenborg from the Hebrew and Latin Bible of Schmidius, includes in verse 13, verses 14, 15, and 16 of our English version.

Elliott(1983-1999) 8858

8858. A person's whole character is determined by the nature of whatever dominates his life; this is what marks him off from others. His heaven is formed in accordance with it if he is good, or his hell if he is bad. For it constitutes his true will and so the true being of his life, which is unchangeable after death. From all this one may see what the life is like in a person who has been regenerated, and what it is like in one who has not been regenerated.

EXODUS 20

  1. And God spoke all these words, saying,

  2. I am Jehovah your God, who brought you out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of slaves.

  3. You shall not have other gods before My face.

  4. You shall not make for yourself a graven image, or any likeness [of things] which are in the heavens above, and which are on the earth beneath, and which are in the waters under the earth.

  5. You shall not bow down to them, and you shall not serve them; for I am Jehovah your God, a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers on the sons,a on the third and on the fourth [generations] of those who hate Me,

  6. And showing mercy to thousands who love Me and keep My commandments.

  7. You shall not take the name of Jehovah your God in vain; for Jehovah will not render him innocent who takes His name in vain.

  8. Remember the sabbath day, to keep it holy.

  9. Six days you shall labour and do all your work;

  10. And the seventh day is a sabbath to Jehovah your God. You shall not do any work - you, nor your son, nor your daughter; your male slave, nor your female slave, nor your beast, nor your sojourner who is within your gates.

  11. For in six days Jehovah made heaven and earth, the sea, and all that is in them, and rested on the seventh day; therefore Jehovah blessed the sabbath day, and sanctified it.

  12. Honour your father and your mother, in order that your days may be prolonged on the land which Jehovah your God gives you.

  13. b You shall not kill.

  14. You shall not commit adultery.

  15. You shall not steal.

  16. You shall not answer as witness of a lie against your neighbour.

  17. You shall not covet your neighbour's house; you shall not covet your neighbour's wife, nor his male slave nor his female slave, nor his ox nor his ass, nor anything that is your neighbour's.

  18. And all the people saw the voices and torches,c and the voice of the trumpet, and the mountain smoking; and the people saw and were violently shaken, and stood afar off.

  19. And they said to Moses, Speak yourself to us, and we will hear; and do not let God speak to us, lest perhaps we die.

  20. And Moses said to the people, Do not fear, for God has come in order to test you, and in order that His fear may be before your faces, so that you do not sin.

  21. And the people stood afar off; and Moses drew near the thick darkness where God was.

  22. And Jehovah said to Moses, Thus you shall say to the children of Israel, You have seen that I have spoken to you from heaven.

  23. You shall not make [to be] with Me gods of silver and gods of gold; you shall not make [them] for yourselves.

  24. An altar of soild you shall make for Me, and shall sacrifice on it your burnt offerings and your eucharistic offerings, your flocks and your herds; in every place where I shall put the memory of My name I will come to you and bless you.

  25. And if you make for Me an altar of stones, you shall not build it with hewn ones; for if you move your chisel over it you will profane it.

  26. And you shall not go up to My altar by steps, in order that your nakedness may not be revealed on it.

Latin(1748-1756) 8858

8858. Homo prorsus talis est, quale est ejus vitae dominans; per hoc distinguitur ab aliis; secundum hoc fit ejus caelum si bonus est, ac fit ejus infernum si malus, nam id est ipsissima ejus voluntas, et sic ipsum esse vitae ejus, quod post mortem mutari non potest. Ex his patet quale vitae est regenerato, et quale vitae est non regenerato.
