    希伯来奴隶之歌

    我的心哪,乘着黄金翅膀飞翔吧
    沿着哀叹的坡路飞翔
    飞向故乡
    那微风轻柔温暖芬芳的地方
    去迎接约旦的河水和锡安倒塌的塔
    哦,亲爱的我失丧的祖国
    留下珍贵回忆和不幸记忆的地方
    说预言的诗人们的黄金竖琴啊
    为何在柳树上沉默!
    请重新点燃我们记忆里消失的火
    给我们讲述从前的故事
    为耶路撒冷残酷的命运
    给我们听苦涩的哀叹之歌
    要么,请主赐给我们歌
    使我们战胜痛苦

    这是威尔第的歌剧《纳布科》第三幕中《希伯来奴隶之歌》的歌词内容,表达了被巴比伦王俘虏的希伯来奴隶们的痛苦和盼望。通过70年的俘虏生活,他们刻骨铭心地感受到侍奉外邦人和在耶路撒冷圣殿侍奉神的差异。按照先知耶利米的预言,70年的俘虏生活结束后,他们回到了故乡。
    在《但以理书》里出现的但以理和三个朋友没有吃尼布甲尼撒王赐的膳。因为他们考虑到吃了王的膳,肉体就会变得富足安逸,心只能远离神。
    为什么?为什么不能吃王的膳?别人还因吃不着王的膳而着急!但他们的心里铭刻着被掳来时的记忆。他们亲眼目睹了耶路撒冷城墙倒塌,圣殿被外邦人践踏,无数的人死于刀下,甚至孕妇的肚子被剖开。还有被掳后侍奉外邦人时,他们心里流下了血泪。那是他们没有全心全意地信神,随从自己肉体欲望的结果。
    他们心里悔改了。从此,他们把自己完全交托给了神。他们恨自己,不相信自己的想法,即使被扔进火窑里,也不向金像跪拜;即使被扔进狮子坑里,仍然面向耶路撒冷,向神祷告。
    信仰是从失败开始的。如果没有尝过不撇弃自己的想法所遭受的结果,心里就不会从痛苦、悲伤和凄惨中回转。他们回转后相信话语时,心里吹来了故乡的微风。他们心里有了黄金翅膀、黄金竖琴,并且神托住他们,使他们战胜一切,回到了故乡。◆
