Nebuchadnezzar’s Pride 尼布甲尼撒的骄傲

DANIEL 4
29 At the end of twelve months he walked in the palace of the kingdom of Babylon.
但以理书 4:29
过了十二个月，他在巴比伦王国的宫殿里行走。

30 The king spake, and said, Is not this great Babylon, that I have built for the house of the kingdom by the might of my power, and for the honor of my majesty?
但以理书 4:30
王开口说：“这大巴比伦不是我用大能大力建为王国的宫殿，为要显我威严的荣耀吗？”

Nebuchadnezzar’s pride
尼布甲尼撒的骄傲

The 4th Chapter of Daniel is one of the greatest examples in scripture of a changed life.
但以理书第四章是圣经中最伟大的生命改变例证之一。

In the verses above, we see an arrogant man, one steeped in pride, walking in his palace, looking at all he had.
在上面的经文中，我们看到一个傲慢的人，沉浸在骄傲中，在他的宫殿里行走，观赏他所拥有的一切。

Does this remind you of anyone, yes David, walking on his palace roof, probably thinking, I’m ok, no sin, can touch me here, how wrong he was!
这让你想起了谁？是的，大卫，在他的宫殿屋顶上行走，可能在想：“我没事，罪恶在这里无法触及我。”他是多么错误！

In the intervening verses, we see that God deals with this arrogant king, he brings the king of the whole earth at that time and makes him eat grass and act like a dog.
在中间的经文中，我们看到神对付这个傲慢的王，祂使当时全地的王吃草，像狗一样行事。

It not only shows God’s power but his mercy too, God could of swatted Nebuchadnezzar out of existence, but he didn’t.
这不仅显示了神的权能，也显示了祂的怜悯，神本可以将尼布甲尼撒从存在中抹去，但他没有。

God has and always will have control, man thinks he is in control, but that is not the reality. When we see some leader shouting off and saying how wonderful they are and how much money they have, may they remember what happened to this king and how he was brought to the lowest point in his life.
神一直并将永远掌权，人以为自己掌权，但那不是现实。当我们看到一些领袖高声宣扬自己有多伟大、拥有多少财富时，愿他们记得这位王发生了什么，以及他如何被带到人生最低点。

Let us not be anxious what is happening in the world, what some people are saying about themselves, it is God who is in sovereign control.
让我们不要为世上发生的事、为某些人对自己说的话而焦虑，是神在掌管至高的权柄。

AMEN 阿门！
