开朗的宗教-第226章
所罗门在青年和壮年时人格高尚，蒙上帝所心爱，在登基时有着繁荣尊贵的美好前景。各国的人都惊讶这位蒙上帝赐予智慧之人的聪明和见识。但繁荣下的骄傲使他与上帝隔绝。所罗门竟转离了那因与上帝交通而来的喜乐，去从情欲的放纵中寻求满足。关于这种经验，他说：[2]
开朗的宗教-第226章
Noble in youth, noble in manhood, the beloved of his God, Solomon entered on a reign that gave promise of prosperity and honor. Nations marveled at the knowledge and insight of the man to whom God had given wisdom. But the pride of prosperity brought separation from God. From the joy of divine communion Solomon turned to find satisfaction in the pleasures of sense. Of his experience he says:{RRe 227.2}[2]

“我为自己动大工程，建造房屋，栽种葡萄园；修造园囿，……我买了仆婢，……我又为自己积蓄金银，和君王的财宝，并各省的财宝；又得唱歌的男女和世人所喜爱的物，……这样，我就日见昌盛，胜过以前在耶路撒冷的众人。……凡我眼所求的，我没有留下不给他的；我心所乐的，我没有禁止不享受的；因我的心为我一切所劳碌的快乐。……后来我察看我手所经营的一切事和我劳碌所成的功，谁知都是虚空，都是捕风，在日光之下毫无益处。我转念观看智慧、狂妄和愚昧。在王以后而来的人还能作什么呢？也不过行早先所行的就是了”（传2:4-12）。[3]

“I made me great works; I builded me houses; I planted me vineyards; I made me gardens and orchards; ... I got me servants and maidens; ... I gathered me also silver and gold, and the peculiar treasure of kings and of the provinces. I gat me men-singers and women-singers, and the delights of the sons of men, as musical instruments, and that of all sorts. So I was great, and increased more than all that were before me in Jerusalem.... And whatsoever mine eyes desired I kept not from them, I withheld not my heart from any joy; for my heart rejoiced in all my labor.... Then I looked on all the works that my hands had wrought, and on the labor that I had labored to do; and behold, all was vanity and vexation of spirit, and there was no profit under the sun. And I turned myself to behold wisdom and madness, and folly; for what can the man do that cometh after the king? even that which hath been already done.”{RRe 227.3}[3]
