“‘Test us for ten days,’ he said. ‘Give us vegetables to eat and water to drink. Then compare us with the young men who are eating the food of the royal court, and base your decision on how we look.’ [The guard] agreed to let them try it for ten days. When the time was up, they looked healthier and stronger than all those who had been eating the royal food” (Daniel 1:12-15 GNT).
"'请你考验仆人们十天,给我们素菜吃,清水喝,然后你亲自观察我们的面貌和那用王膳的少年的面貌;就照你所观察的待你的仆人吧!'管理者准许他们这件事,考验他们十天。过了十天,他们的身材看来比所有享用王膳的少年更加俊美健壮。"(但1:12-15 和修)
When Daniel refused to be defiled by eating the food of King Nebuchadnezzar’s court, he presented the guard with another option: “‘Test us for ten days,’ he said. ‘Give us vegetables to eat and water to drink. Then compare us with the young men who are eating the food of the royal court, and base your decision on how we look.’ [The guard] agreed to let them try it for ten days. When the time was up, they looked healthier and stronger than all those who had been eating the royal food” (Daniel 1:12-15 GNT).
当但以理拒绝被尼布甲尼撒王招待的食物所玷污的时候,他向卫兵提出一个建议:"'请你考验仆人们十天,给我们素菜吃,清水喝,然后你亲自观察我们的面貌和那用王膳的少年的面貌;就照你所观察的待你的仆人吧!'管理者准许他们这件事,考验他们十天。过了十天,他们的身材看来比所有享用王膳的少年更加俊美健壮。"(但1:12-15 和修)
Daniel didn’t just eat haphazardly, accepting whatever was placed in front of him. He was intentional about what he ate.
但以理在饮食上不随便,不管是他是从哪里接到的食物,他都不随便。他对吃的食物很在意。
When you think clearly about what you eat, God empowers you to continue to make good choices. Clear thinking leads to self-control.
当你清楚的思考你吃了什么的时候,上帝是你可以持续作出好的决定。清楚的思考使你有自控力。
By thinking ahead of time, you can prepare so that you won’t have a “food emergency.” This enables you to eat healthy meals and snacks that you packed ahead of time, and you won’t crash in the afternoon because you ate a greasy fast-food lunch.
在思考之前,你可以预备以至于你不会有“饮食问题”。这使你有健康饮食并且吃到你之前预备的食物,你不会因为在下午迟到了富含脂肪的垃圾午餐而崩溃。
Instead, you’ll be on top of your game, energized and ready to do whatever it is that God calls you to do. Being intentional, thinking clearly, and exercising self-control, will help you achieve your health goals and serve God well.
取而代之的是,你会在游戏中领先、充满动力并且时刻准备去做上帝呼召你的事情。引起重视,清楚的思考,并且锻炼自控力,会帮助你达到你的健康目标并且完成上帝的旨意。
