不要懼怕壓力
Do not be fearful of pressure
它可以是推力的化身
It can be motivation in disguise
對你的慣性產生催迫和位移
Urging you to move out of your norm
保護你出離安逸和僵化的生命狀態
Preventing you from complacency and stagnation
塑造了具有强大適應與回應能力的你
Equipping you with great ability to adapt and respond
所以
So
只管穩住
Just stand firm
火炮就變成了向你致敬的禮炮
Canons become canons of salutation
浪頭就變成了向你答禮的浪花
Waves become waves of appreciation
即或不然
Even if not so
那壓力來得無情甚至滿懷惡意
The pressure is relentless and meaning harm
對你出手掃蕩和否定一切
Relegating and destroying you
幾致你全然傾跌和滅頂
Until you have totally fallen and drowned
你竟在遍體傷痕中含笑順勢而起
You rise up with a smile amidst all your hurts
一個蛻變更新的靈魂和生命仰天立地
A transformed and renewed being standing tall
至終
In the end
那毁滅性的壓力也為之錯愕
Stunning that destructive pressure
為之失能
Rendering it incapable
為之手足無措
At a loss
為之黯然無語
Speechless
「神召你們得榮耀,等你們暫受苦難
“After you have suffered for a little while, the
之後,必親自成全堅固你們。」
God of all grace, who called you to His eternal glory in Christ, will Himself perfect, confirm, strengthen and establish you.
(彼前五章10節) (1 Peter 5:10)
