72.5月4日 星期四 聖母瑪利亞圖像流淚了－白孟德神父（Fr. Charles Belmonte Lopez）語錄-譯者:林豪
In Hungary, the country that Pope Francis just visited from April 28 to 30, the Shrine of Máriapócs houses the replica of a Marian image that shed tears in a miraculous way like its original icon.
在教宗方濟各剛於4月28日至30日訪問了匈牙利，瑪利亞波奇朝聖地(Máriapócs)收藏了一幅瑪利亞圖像的複製品，該圖像如同其原始圖像一樣，奇蹟式地流下淚來。
In this picture of the icon, the Virgin can be seen with a black dress and red veil, holding the Child Jesus in her left arm. Mary’s right-hand points towards her Son (she always refers us to Him), while the Divine Child does the same with his Mother (he refers to her as “even more blessed are all who receive the word of God and put it into practice”).
在這張聖像的圖像中，可以看到聖母穿著黑色衣服和紅色頭紗，左手抱著聖嬰耶穌；瑪利亞的右手指向她的聖子（她總是把我們指引向主耶穌），而聖嬰對祂的母親也是如此，主基督稱她為：「那聽天主的話而遵行的人，更是有福的!」（路:11:28）。
The Prelature of Opus Dei indicates that the image was made in the 17th century by the painter Stefan Pap. It was commissioned by a Christian who managed to escape from the Turks. The painting was placed in the parish of Máriapócs until the supernatural events began.
主業監督團指出，這幅畫是畫家斯特凡·帕普（Stefan Pap）在17世紀的創作。它是由一位設法逃離土耳其的基督徒所委託繪製的。這幅畫被放置在馬里亞波奇教區，直到這項超自然的事件發生。
From November 4 to December 8, 1696, tears came from Our Lady’s eyes. This caused great commotion among the faithful, and since then, the place became a center of pilgrimage.
從1696年11月4日到12月8日，眼淚由聖母的眼睛流下來。引起了本地的信友們極大的騷動，從那時起，這個地方就成為朝聖的中心。
Nevertheless, Emperor Leopold I ordered the icon to be taken to Vienna, and it was installed in St. Stephen’s Cathedral. It remains there to this day.
儘管如此，利奧波德一世皇帝還是下令將聖像移至維也納，並將其安置在聖斯德望大教堂。至此，聖像就一直存放在那裡直到今天。
The Hungarian faithful were very sad because they felt that something very valuable had been taken away from them. So, a replica of the Marian image was placed in the Shrine of Máriapócs. Later, the miracle was repeated with the new icon.
匈牙利的信友們非常難過，因為他們覺得，從他們那裏被奪走了一件價值非凡的聖物。因此，瑪利亞圖像的複製品被放置在馬里亞波奇朝聖地中。後來，奇蹟在此複製品同樣地發生了。
On August 1, 2 and 5, 1715 the replica of the image of the Virgin Mary also began to weep. The same thing happened centuries later, in December 1905. It is said that on this last occasion it shed tears for almost a month.
1715年8月1日、2日和5日，聖母瑪利亞圖像的複製品也開始哭泣。幾個世紀後，在1905年12月，同樣的事情也發生了。據說，在這最後一次，聖像流了將近一個月的眼淚。
In 1955 the original image in Vienna was visited by St. Josemaría Escrivá, Founder of Opus Dei. The saint implored her for help for the “countries of the East” then under communism. “Sancta Maria, Stella Orientis, filios tuos adiuva!” (Holy Mary, Star of the East, help your children), he prayed to her.
在1955年，主業團創辦人聖施禮華（St. Josemaría Escrivá）參觀了在維也納的真跡。這位聖人懇求她幫助當時在共產主義下的「東方國家」。「Sancta Maria, Stella Orientis, filios tuos adiuva!（聖瑪利亞，東方之星，助佑妳的孩子們）」，他這樣地向她祈禱。
St. Josemaría, moreover, named her, Stella Orientis, “Morning Star” or “Star of the East” and spread devotion to this Marian image with this invocation.
此外，聖施禮華將她命名為「Stella Orientis」，「曉明之星」或「東方之星」，並藉由這項祈禱，宣揚了對這幅瑪利亞圖像的虔敬。
Later, in 1991, St. John Paul II visited the Shrine of Máriapócs, Hungary, where the miraculous replica is located, emphasizing the importance of praying the Angelus and the victory of Christianity over those who try to destroy it.
之後，在1991年，聖若望．保祿二世參觀了這件神奇的複製品所在的匈牙利馬里亞波奇朝聖地，強調了祈禱三鍾經的重要性，以及基督宗教要戰勝那些企圖摧毀教會的人們的重要性。
