歡喜快樂
Joy and rejoicing


這張海報主言要宣揚閱讀聖經帶來心靈的快樂與滿足,並將其比作美味的食物,滋養人心。海報描繪一位身穿黑色長衫,頭戴黑色帽子的男子,他面容慈祥,嘴角微微上揚,正端坐在木枱前。他右手拿著筷子夾著小包,左手扶著一本打開的書,目光向下,神情專注。枱上放著一疊書,一個大碗裝滿許多小包,以及兩個帶有紅色筷子的茶杯。大碗內的小包印有不同聖經經文,例如「約翰福音」、「馬太福音」等等。碗的邊沿有「寶貴極大的應許」字樣。在老人的上方繪畫了一本打開的聖經。聖經上清晰可見的文字:「我得着主的言語 就當食物喫了」「主的言語是我心中的歡喜快樂」( 舊約全書 耶利米書 第十五章 十六節 八百五十 八百五十一)。海報的頂端:「主言乃食物」。底端:「沒有銀錢的也可以來喫」。兩側由右至左:「主對世人說 你們為何花錢買那不足為食物的 用勞碌得來的買那不使人飽足的呢 你們要留意聽我的話 就能喫那美物得享肥甘心中喜樂」。(賽五十五章二節)。四角:歡 喜 快 樂。在枱旁:請到福音堂聽道查經。
This poster depicting man eating while studying the Bible. Top and bottom: The Lord's Word is Food; Those who have no money may also come and eat. Right and left: Why spend money on what is not bread, and your labor on what does not satisfy? Listen, listen to me, and eat what is good, and your soul will delight in the richest of fare (Isa 55:2). Four corners: Joy and delight. On the Bible: When your words came, I ate them. They were my joy and my heart's delight (Jer 15:16). On the bowl: Great and precious promises. On the steamed buns: I will strengthen you and help you (Isa 41:10). Never will I leave you; never will I forsake you (Heb 13:5). I will give you rest (Mt 11:28). Peace I leave with you (Jn 14:27). Everyone who asks receives (Mt 7:8 Jer 33:3 Mt 18:19). Next to table: Please go to a church to hear the gospel and study the Bible.
This Poster depicts a man having a meal of "pao-tsi." on each of which "an exceeding great and precious promise" is inscribed. Eating, and at the same time reading from his Bible that is propped up in front of him, his delighted smile fully illustrates the verse written on the pages of a large Bible in the top portion of the poster : "Thy Words were found and I did eat them, and Thy Word was unto me the joy and rejoicing of mine heart." The words of Isaiah 55:2 form the frame-work of the picture.
